Book Synopsis My Journey with Maya by : Tavis Smiley
Download or read book My Journey with Maya written by Tavis Smiley and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable story of friendship, love, and courage. When Maya Angelou and Tavis Smiley met in 1986, he was twenty-one and she was fifty-eight. For the next twenty-eight years, they shared an unlikely, special bond. Angelou was a teacher and a maternal figure to Smiley, and they talked often, of art, politics, history, race, religion, music, love, purpose, and -- more than anything -- courage. Courage to be open, to follow dreams, to believe in oneself. In My Journey with Maya, Smiley recalls a joyful friendship filled to the brim with sparkling conversation -- in Angelou's gardens surrounded by her caged birds, before lectures, sharing meals, and on breaks from it all, they sought each other out for comfort, advice, and above all else, friendship. It began when he, a recent college graduate and a poor kid from a big family in the Midwest, was invited to join the revered writer on a sojourn to Africa. He would be handling her bags, but Maya didn't let that stop a friendship waiting to happen. Angelou was generous, challenging, and inspirational. Like a mother to him, she was selfless. Here Tavis Smiley shares his personal memories of Maya Angelou, of a decades-long friendship with one of history's most fascinating women, one who left as indelible an imprint on American culture as she did on him.

Download or read book Followship written by Jerry Gillis and published by . This book was released on 2005-08 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following helps us. As upside down as it sounds, it frees us. It takes us out of the bondage of our own selfishness and vanity and places us in an arena that is outside of ourselves. It is full of adventure and wonder and discovery because we are not at the controls and don't know what each new turn will bring. We really live when we follow, and it is a noble life. Followers live for the prestige, recognition, and glory of Another. Life is no longer centered on self. And the less focused that we are on self, the more we seem to help ourselves at the core of our being. God does a remarkable thing by placing us in unique human relationships. Those relationships become the grid of how well we play out the reality or lack of it as it relates to followship. The relationship that God has ordained for some has placed them in a positions where they must be a good leader simply because of the many people for which they are. However they must be good followers because all of those people must have an example of what a good follower looks like. Followship will give you a fresh perspective in your Christian walk.

Book Synopsis We're Going to Need More Wine by : Gabrielle Union
Download or read book We're Going to Need More Wine written by Gabrielle Union and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Nominated for the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work Named a Best Book of the Year by The Root Chosen by Emma Straub as a Best New Celebrity Memoir “A book of essays as raw and honest as anyone has ever produced.” — Lena Dunham, Lenny Letter In the spirit of Amy Poehler’s Yes Please, Lena Dunham’s Not That Kind of Girl, and Roxane Gay's Bad Feminist, a powerful collection of essays about gender, sexuality, race, beauty, Hollywood, and what it means to be a modern woman. One month before the release of the highly anticipated film The Birth of a Nation, actress Gabrielle Union shook the world with a vulnerable and impassioned editorial in which she urged our society to have compassion for victims of sexual violence. In the wake of rape allegations made against director and actor Nate Parker, Union—a forty-four-year-old actress who launched her career with roles in iconic ’90s movies—instantly became the insightful, outspoken actress that Hollywood has been desperately awaiting. With honesty and heartbreaking wisdom, she revealed her own trauma as a victim of sexual assault: "It is for you that I am speaking. This is real. We are real." In this moving collection of thought provoking essays infused with her unique wisdom and deep humor, Union uses that same fearlessness to tell astonishingly personal and true stories about power, color, gender, feminism, and fame. Union tackles a range of experiences, including bullying, beauty standards, and competition between women in Hollywood, growing up in white California suburbia and then spending summers with her black relatives in Nebraska, coping with crushes, puberty, and the divorce of her parents. Genuine and perceptive, Union bravely lays herself bare, uncovering a complex and courageous life of self-doubt and self-discovery with incredible poise and brutal honesty. Throughout, she compels us to be ethical and empathetic, and reminds us of the importance of confidence, self-awareness, and the power of sharing truth, laughter, and support.
Book Synopsis The Essence of Reality by : ʿAyn al-Quḍāt
Download or read book The Essence of Reality written by ʿAyn al-Quḍāt and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking exposition of Islamic mysticism The Essence of Reality was written over the course of just three days in 514/1120, by a scholar who was just twenty-four. The text, like its author ʿAyn al-Quḍāt, is remarkable for many reasons, not least of which that it is in all likelihood the earliest philosophical exposition of mysticism in the Islamic intellectual tradition. This important work would go on to exert significant influence on both classical Islamic philosophy and philosophical mysticism. Written in a terse yet beautiful style, The Essence of Reality consists of one hundred brief chapters interspersed with Qurʾanic verses, prophetic sayings, Sufi maxims, and poetry. In conversation with the work of the philosophers Avicenna and al-Ghazālī, the book takes readers on a philosophical journey, with lucid expositions of questions including the problem of the eternity of the world; the nature of God’s essence and attributes; the concepts of “before” and “after”; and the soul’s relationship to the body. All these discussions are seamlessly tied into ʿAyn al-Quḍāt’s foundational argument—that mystical knowledge lies beyond the realm of the intellect.

Book Synopsis The Essence Of Chaos by : Flavio Lorenzelli
Download or read book The Essence Of Chaos written by Flavio Lorenzelli and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of chaotic systems has become a major scientific pursuit in recent years, shedding light on the apparently random behaviour observed in fields as diverse as climatology and mechanics. InThe Essence of Chaos Edward Lorenz, one of the founding fathers of Chaos and the originator of its seminal concept of the Butterfly Effect, presents his own landscape of our current understanding of the field. Lorenz presents everyday examples of chaotic behaviour, such as the toss of a coin, the pinball's path, the fall of a leaf, and explains in elementary mathematical strms how their essentially chaotic nature can be understood. His principal example involved the construction of a model of a board sliding down a ski slope. Through this model Lorenz illustrates chaotic phenomena and the related concepts of bifurcation and strange attractors. He also provides the context in which chaos can be related to the similarly emergent fields of nonlinearity, complexity and fractals. As an early pioneer of chaos, Lorenz also provides his own story of the human endeavour in developing this new field. He describes his initial encounters with chaos through his study of climate and introduces many of the personalities who contributed early breakthroughs. His seminal paper, "Does the Flap of a Butterfly's Wing in Brazil Set Off a Tornado in Texas?" is published for the first time.

Book excerpt: "Stillness and silence had heralded the divine being. Now sounds again filled the forest as birds called, branches moved, and water ran over rocks. The being had simply vanished. Somehow the forest felt more alive than before, more full of mystery, yet it was also unchanged. Was that real?" Essence Seekers: A Quest Beyond the Forest of Enjoyment is an allegorical spiritual journey that takes us through practical, emotional, and psychological steps from a beginning curiosity and longing to enlightenment. It inspires with hope, while it aids with deep introspection and authenticity. Rooted in Eastern wisdom adapted from ancient texts, the universal and non-sectarian themes speak to any and all seekers of the essence of life. Avid starts out as part of a nomadic group, journeying with his family who seek wealth in the forest which they sell in villages and cities along their route. Their happiness and hopes for satisfaction are frustrated by perils representing various internal and external obstacles. Avid gets help from a mysterious guide in the forest and eventually joins with two friends on a quest for the essence, or nectar, of life. But what is that exactly? Will they overcome the diversions and tests to find it, and at what price? Essence Seekers is based on allegorical texts originally written in Sanskrit and Bengali, bringing those ancient metaphors to life and giving timeless wisdom and guidance to anyone looking for extraordinary fulfillment. Essence Seekers is a very good allegorical tale, full of deep meaning and beautiful descriptive passages. -Alfred Ford, philanthropist, great-grandson of Henry Ford Anyone who is a genuine seeker of life's highest truths will find Best's account of an avid soul's journey towards deep meaning and authenticity to be personally relatable and eternally profound. -Mpho MacChambers, Social Activist and Changemaker, Founder and Executive Director of Kula Education. Urmila's Essence Seekers is a masterful account of a journey-both inward and outward. We can identify with the characters and events, which foster in us detachment from the mundane and eagerness for the Divine. -Giriraj Swami, author of Many Moons and Watering the Seed Explore and learn and spare yourself from the common pitfalls of a spiritual journey. -Pranada Comtois, author of Wise-Love: Bhakti and the Search for the Soul of Consciousness.

Download or read book Hola, Morocha! written by Jennifer Poe and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Inspirational, sexy and funny, this literary travelogue series will take you on a Buenos Aires adventure that you'll never forget and also want to recommend to other travel lovers." -Tameka Mullins, Author of 12 Hours of Daylight - A Jason Jules Novella "Part memoir and part travel guide, Hola, Morocha! captures the joys and frustrations of being a woman abroad with humor and grace. As a black woman in Argentina, Jennifer Poe was indeed a stranger in a strange land - only 0.4 percent of its 41 million inhabitants identified as Afro-Argentine in 2010 - so you know immediately that this is not your typical travelogue. Accompanying Jennifer on the ups and downs of her journey helped me remember everything I loved - and hated - about living abroad. Hola, Morocha! made me want to hop the next plane to Buenos Aires - or at least go get an empanada." -Kathy Pulkrabek co-host and producer XX Will Travel: A Podcast for Independent Women Travelers "From her irreverent humor to her worries and insights, Poe has an uncanny ability to articulate her feelings through vivid actions instead of direct words. For intrepid travelers, this book is a gem and an invitation to walk down memory lane. The scenes she chose to highlight and share were so familiar to me as veteran traveler, that I began reliving my own moments of fear, anxiety, and accomplishments while traveling. Yet, newbie travelers setting out on their first solo adventure will likely find solace and inspiration in Poe's journey. It's definitely one of those "if she can do it, so can I" types of books that having read it they'll be better for it." -Davita M. McKelvey Editor-In-Chief, Griots Republic "In a few short pages Hola, Morocha! manages to capture both the humor and vulnerability of being a young, black, female expat. It is a quick, fun read with a simple message: don't let fear keep you from chasing your [international] dream." -Amanda Bates Founder and Editor of The Black Expat When I first heard the word "Morocha," I thought people were calling me a damn roach-granted, some exotic breed of roach that only skittered through luxury-but a roach! When I found out they were basically saying, "Hey, black girl, hey!" I took it as a term of endearment. Buenos Aires, Argentina-a city where black people are so few and far between that Ebony magazine once dubbed it "The Land of the Vanishing Blacks." Yet that's exactly where Jennifer Poe headed with a one-way ticket in 2007 at the age of twenty-two, fresh off a break up, desperate for a change from her New York City life, and thirsty for adventure in every form. Armed with a copy of Hemingway's Moveable Feast and the contact info for the only hair stylist in a fifty-mile radius who could do black hair, Jennifer landed in BA with big plans, but zero amigas and only a cave-woman grasp of the Spanish language. As culture shock set in, Jennifer found herself dealing with the hilarious (a bidet that fought back), the absurd (the Argentine customs agency that held her fifty-pound package of black hair care products hostage) and the unexpected-like realizing her black skin and hair made her stand out in the best possible ways. Funny and insightful, Hola, Morocha! offers readers a new twist on the "stranger in a strange land" tale. Told in a funny, blunt style, this first installment in a series reads like postcards from your quirky best friend, inviting readers to experience every heartache, frustration and hilarious misstep right alongside her. Hola, Morocha! A Black Woman's Adventures in Buenos Aires: Culture Shock is the travel-memoir fusion of Awkward Black Girl meets Me Talk Pretty One Day honest, intelligent, and an authentic representation of empowering female solo travel.
Download or read book Love Unveiled written by A. H. Almaas and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A passionate and deep exploration of how love is essential to our spiritual growth and development, from beloved author and teacher A. H. Almaas. Love is a universal energy--and a primary force that powers our movement toward spiritual illumination. All the ways we need love are simply reflections of our need for spiritual growth. In Love Unveiled, A. H. Almaas explores three dimensions of love: appreciative love--the true liking of somebody or something; merging or connecting love--a force that melts away separateness; and passionate, ecstatic love--capable of consuming us from inside. In their own way, each reveals the beauty and exquisiteness of our spiritual heart, which is the heart of the divine. However, the path of spiritual love is not without challenges. Almaas explores the barriers that tend to block our experience of loving awakening and provides experiential exercises throughout the book to help readers along their path. The exercises focus on the obstacles or misunderstandings that commonly arise for each quality or dimension of love. Presented in the form of writing or monologuing prompts, readers can work independently or in small groups to confront the emotional obstacles on their spiritual path. Regardless of where you are on your path, Love Unveiled will help you explore love in three essential dimensions and gain a deeper connection to yourself.
