Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dancing on the double yellow lines . . . My Commute and The Journey Continues form a two-part fictionalized memoir dedicated to the disappeared of American corporate life. Its main motif is narrator Alisons commute, first to CHN Crumbles, Inc., a multinational corporation in which she works at a relatively low-level clerical job, then to a succession of temporary positions, and finally to Big Best, an acquisitive octopus that adheres to no law but Murphys. Alison has a vision, appropriate for the millennium, showing that for all of us to survive, workers must unite in a cooperative union, emulating the bees. She is also enchanted, if not always enlightened, by Pandora, a computer-based genie who reveals the future by means of the cards dealt in cyberspace solitaire. Alisons daily commute is revealed as a metaphor for her life as she interacts with the menaces on the highway and the equally grim hazards of company politics. She seeks guidance from the aphorisms in fortune cookies and from co-worker Celeste, a white-magic witch who tries to improve life in the department. Among the other characters she meets on her corporate journey are Freddie, a womanizing, vindictive manager . . . Stephanie, a young, fast-track executive who caters to Freddie and is mentored by him . . . Rose-Says-Not-to-Tell, a co-worker who relays all company gossip . . . Bonita, the Queen of Junk Email . . . and the executives at Big Best, whose speech Alison finds as hard to understand as Pandoras coded prophecies. Alisons observations of dejobbing practices and its extensive vocabulary, the various mangers strategies and foibles, and her co-workers concerns, complaints, and day-to-day struggles to survive should hit home with any reader who has recently worked for a major American corporation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly transparent and factual memoir, the author shows her audience what childhood oppression, apathy, and silence look like to a little girl who grows up to defy the odds after years of blundering. She doesn't blame her parents, who were supposed to prepare her for adulthood, because her love for them outweighs any faults. While sharing her struggles, failures, and mistakes, the author discusses how blunders can be rectified and avoided. This nonfictional memoir reminds every parent that the children they bring into the world need attention, encouragement, training, guidance, patience, a voice, and unconditional love. It is a fact that we are born into families that we did not choose; therefore, we will conform to our caretaker's culture, customs, and beliefs. These are our roots. But when we reach the age of accountability, we should draw from what our caretakers and teachers have taught us about life. If there is no preparation, we won't succeed. As children move into adulthood, they must learn from their failures and successes and allow their experiences and training to lead them in making good choices. If parents do not prepare them for this critical step, the transition into adulthood will not be easily attained or realized by the child. Failure then causes some children to become wayward, confused, blunderers, and resigned to success. Note, it is a child's responsibility to grasp what is being taught, but if there is no teaching, the child falls short. As I was writing my memoir, I thought about something that Brene Brown said, "One day you will tell your story of how you overcame what you went through, and it will be someone else's survival guide." I hope that my story will be your lifeline, or perhaps, your adult child's guide to parenting.

Book excerpt: An intimate, clever, and ultimately gut-wrenching graphic memoir about the daily decision people must make between being sexualized or being invisible—now in paperback In Commute, we follow author and illustrator Erin Williams on her daily commute to and from work, punctuated by recollections of sexual encounters as well as memories of her battle with alcoholism, addiction, and recovery. As she moves through the world navigating banal, familiar, and sometimes uncomfortable interactions with the familiar-faced strangers she sees daily, Williams weaves together a riveting collection of flashbacks. Williams recollections highlight the indefinable moments when lines are crossed and a woman must ask herself if the only way to avoid being objectified is to simply cease drawing any attention to her physical being. She delves into the gray space that lives between consent and assault and tenderly explores the complexity of the shame, guilt, vulnerability, and responsibility attached to both. Praise for Commute “This sharp and splendidly drawn memoir will strike a strong chord in the current moment. ” —Publishers Weekly, starred review “One day’s commute offers time for the author to reflect on sexual predators, alcoholism, and the experiences she understands better now than she did at the time. . . . A catharsis for the author that fits perfectly within a pivotal period for society and culture at large.” —Kirkus Reviews “This is welcoming, soul-baring, stunningly interconnected, and very discussable.” —Booklist

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the evolution of post-colonial African Studies through the eyes of Africanists from the Anabaptist (Mennonite and Church of the Brethren) community. The book chronicles the lives of twenty-two academics and practitioners whose work spans from the immediate post-colonial period in the 1960s to the present day, a period in which decolonization and development have dominated scholarly and practitioner debate. Reflecting the values and perspectives they shared with the Mennonite Central Committee and other church-sponsored organizations, the authors consider their own personal journeys and professional careers, the power of the prevailing scholarly paradigms they encountered, and the realities of post-colonial Africa. Coming initially from Anabaptist service programs, the authors ultimately made wider contributions to comparative religion, church leadership, literature, music, political science, history, anthropology, economics and banking, health and healing, public health, extension education, and community development. The personal histories and reflections of the authors provide an important glimpse into the intellectual and cultural perspectives that shaped the work of Africanist scholars and practitioners in the post-colonial period. The book reminds us that the work of every Africanist is shaped by their own life stories.

This book was released on 2023-02-21 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you think of your life as a mixed bag of random events that have shaped your human experience into an unpredictable hit-or-miss filled with periodic (or frequent) frustration, sadness, anger or regret? What if your life was actually a purposeful journey where each experience and exposure represents an opportunity which your body and mind is designed to use for your benefit and growth? What if you could turn any wrong, whether present or past, into a potent right? What if you could elevate anything from your life experience into a source of love? This book offers a variety of ways to understand our basic human blueprint and neuro-biological wiring, and how your original environment deeply affects the beliefs you come to have about so many aspects of yourself, others, and life. Although your perceptions seem to be concrete reality, by weaving the early years of the human experience - often through Susan’s own very personal stories - you will discover that many of your more limited perceptions are transformations-in-waiting. Because you are powerful with potentials far beyond your beginnings, you have the inherent ability to transform any of the so-called wrongs from your experience, into wise understanding. Your life journey is precious and potent. Within these pages, you will discover ways to love yourself beyond any feelings of trauma, disappointment, guilt, anger or regret you may still carry from your earliest years, and emerge free to express more of the unique and powerful person you came here to be. Within a loving, non-judgmental perspective, you are taken through different states of consciousness in order to understand your life as a journey offering continual opportunities of transformation, healing and power. As you are able to connect your deepest dots, both the past and present become transformed. Long-held limitations and pain, even those passed down through earlier generations, dissolve into joy and renewal. Not just a process of personal elevation, this book offers the potential of transformation for humanity itself.

Book excerpt: This book provides an in-depth exploration of trains and train travel. Letherby and Reynolds have conducted extensive research with all those concerned with trains, from leisure travelers and enthusiasts to railway workers and commuters. Overturning conventional wisdom, they show that the train has a social life in and of itself and is not simply a way to get from A to B.The book also looks at the depiction of train travel through cultural media, such as music, films, books and art. The authors consider the personal politics of train travel and political discussion surrounding the railways, as well as the relationship trains have to leisure and work. The media often paints a gloomy picture of the railways and there is a general view that the romance of train travel ended with the steam locomotive. Letherby and Reynolds show that this is far from the case.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appeal of sacred sites remains undiminished at the start of the twenty-first century, as unprecedented numbers of visitors travel to Lourdes, Rome, Jerusalem, Santiago de Compostela, and even Star Trek conventions. Ethnographic analysis of the conflicts over resources and meanings associated with such sites, as well as the sense of community they inspire, provides compelling evidence re-emphasizing the links between pilgrimage and tourism. As the papers in this collection demonstrate, studies of these forms of journeying are at the forefront of postmodern debates about movement and centers, global flows, social identities, and the negotiation of meanings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I believe in the power of purpose. Join me as I walk through both my traumatic experiences and triumphant victories to reveal that even in our dark places in life, God never stops shining his light. From a young child I was certain of my future, but as lack of faith and bad choices reframed it, God took my unplanned misfortune and painted his masterpiece. Through these experiences, lessons, and blessings, I learned that we only become prisoners when we allow other things and people to change the course that God set for us. My story further reveals that nothing or no one can take from you what God has placed before you; we are only lost along the way. In spite of hopelessness, suicide, abuse, homelessness, and poverty, he said I would survive. God spoke life into me, into my purpose, thus into this book so that anyone who read it would be led out of their dark places into his light, therefore breaking free of their prisons and reaching their purpose as well. I am blessed to share with you all what strikes the core of our lives and peels away the layers of our existence to reverse the negative impact of society, self-hatred, lack of faith, and gross ignorance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-lasting friendships are rare, but they do happen. In 1962, sixteen young men, strangers all, chose to enroll as freshmen at Villanova University located in the suburbs of Philadelphia, PA. They met at different times and in different ways over their college years, but The Journey of a Band of Villanova Brothers had begun. A remarkable, almost mystical bond ignited and grew among these men even after graduation when they started their life journeys, and all went their separate ways. Grounded in the principles of truth, unity, and love that they learned at Villanova, this bond has lasted for fifty-five years. The Journey of a Band of Villanova Brothers explores the essence of that bond which in some ways is more vital than ever and uncovers the meaning of true friendship.

Book excerpt: This continuing saga of Jack Walker’s fascinating life story takes the reader inside the Chicago labor movement and civil rights street activity during the tumultuous 1960s and 1970s and the anti-Vietnam War protests. The reader will be with Walker as he associates with labor leaders, some honest and some not. Politicians and judges on the take. He introduces two mafia “juice men” who shared their daily experiences with him and two other mobsters who ran a call girl ring. His working relationship with most all the Black leaders in Chicago gives some insight into Black rage of the time. His years as a civil rights investigator will introduce a small-town mayor who claimed his school district would never integrate Whites with Negroes and a Minnesota town that went silent on why the Native American students were pulled out and returned to the reservation. His legal defenses before administrative law judges and arbitrators left landmark precedents for federal government workers. Readers will experience his ten years as a practicing alcoholic and his up-and-down life recovering to go on and become a successful real estate operator, only to lose it all in bankruptcy and foreclosure, then recover to go on living one day at a time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The challenges we face in education, health care, and social welfare are multifaceted, reflecting the complex systems in which we live. Out of urgency and often the best of intentions, organizations implement new policies, technologies, and other innovations to tackle these issues, and hope for the best. However, addressing these challenges requires more than heroic individuals with silver-bullet solutions. We need teams with diverse expertise that know how to learn together and use their collective knowledge to redesign our social systems for the improved well-being of our communities. Journey to Improvement serves as a road map for teams that are ready to follow a different path to better outcomes. Drawing on their decades of on-the-ground experience, the authors walk teams through the phases of an improvement journey from launching the team to trying ideas in practice to spreading those that work. This book highlights the personal, relational, and technical aspects of taking an improvement science approach and illustrates these ideas through real-world examples from across the social sector and around the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I thought my life was in no particular turmoil when I first met Jaichima and Vicente in 1992. Retrospectively, I was lost, confused, and hanging onto life by a thread . . . a thread of delusions spun by suppression and repression and concealed by layers of addiction and denial. Although college educated and successful, I was feeling increasingly frustrated, depressed and unhappy for unknown reasons. Moving from the Midwest to Arizona failed to effectively alter my disposition. Closing my business and quitting my job did not help. The truth remained concealed even after two years of intervention by the Mara'akames. Slowly, via counseling, ceremonies and workshop involvement, the truth began to emerge. Thirty years of repression, addiction, denial and delusion, gradually surrendered their ugly tentacles revealing horrendous untreated childhood sexual and parental abuse. Untreated, the effects of my childhood trauma developed into a severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder that has been expressed through unconscious imbalanced entity behaviors most of my life. When counseling began, my life instantly unraveled. I became confused, angry and disconnected with the person I never knew or understood; myself. Though repression and denial saved my life, intervention unlocked the door exposing my damaged entities that were created during childhood, nurtured during teen years and perfected during adulthood absent counseling. These life-saving entities silently and unknowingly controlled my life. Through the Mara'akames nontraditional intervention, guidance and healing techniques, my nonexistent spirituality gradually transformed into deep spiritual awareness. This spirituality became the essential foundation for my healing . . . and was rudimentary for unveiling my horrific past. This candid story reveals how blind adulation of my father led to horrendous childhood sexual and parental abuse with subsequent complete repression and denial. It reveals my atrocious past, defines my entities, and discusses my healing process after thirty years of repression. It also elucidates the non-traditional healing techniques, foremost spirituality, taught by the Mara'akames. Jaichima is a Mara'akame from the Huichol tribe called Wirarika of the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico. She has practiced ancient and traditional tribal medicine for many years in Mexico and the United States. She speaks numerous languages and has been a committed medicine woman all of her life. Dominic Maka has been employed as a health care and vocational rehabilitation professional throughout his career. For ten years he owned and operated a successful consulting business. He has been married thirty years and is the father of three children.
