Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meditation prompts, came about as a result of the Lord fulfilling the promise He gave to me in the book of Proverbs 24:13-14. Not long after the rededication of my commitment to serve Jesus Christ, I was gifted with His promise of wisdom with understanding. These promptings often came in the early morning hoursduring my time of communion and fellowship. I often liken these moment by moment refreshmentsas to spending time in The River of Life. His introduction of intimacy begins as a gradual stream, that journeys through chosen meadow-like valleys of insight. {I have experienced the peace of His inviting presence, as the stirrings of a brook, which flows over smooth stones that lay in its pathway}. These were quiet- captivating interludes of lively conversational thoughts, which were orchestrated by His Spirit. {It is beyond my comprehensionthat God, Who made all things, could so affectionately and purposefully lift me closer to Himself through the raising of my spiritual understanding of His ways}. As our time together progresses on, we eventually arrive at a place where the vastness of His thoughts are overwhelmingly endless. At such a view I am taken in and dispersed about by the breadth and length, depth and height of His love for me. God in all His Majesty and Splendor begins to personally instruct on what is to be unveiled of His treasury of hidden thoughts. {God releases wisdom to reproduce His thoughts in the minds and hearts that hold His affection. Meditation and prompts are fruitful twins that come from the union of God and His beloved}. God is faithfuland is without loss in His givingso when He meets with me in the early waking hours of the morning, I know that I am especially being awakened to receive what only He can giveSelah.

Download or read book The Way It Was written by Eliot Weisman and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A candid and eye-opening inside look at the final decades of Sinatra's life told by his longtime manager and friend, Eliot Weisman. By the time Weisman met Sinatra in 1976, he was already the Voice, a man who held sway over popular music and pop culture for forty years, who had risen to the greatest heights of fame and plumbed the depths of failure, all the while surviving with the trademark swagger that women pined for and men wanted to emulate. Passionate and generous on his best days, sullen and unpredictable on his worst, Sinatra invited Weisman into his inner circle, an honor that the budding celebrity manager never took for granted. Even when he was caught up in a legal net designed to snare Sinatra, Weisman went to prison rather than being coerced into telling prosecutors what they wanted to hear. With Weisman's help, Sinatra orchestrated in his final decades some of the most memorable moments of his career. There was the Duets album, which was Sinatra's top seller, the massive tours, such as Together Again, which featured a short-lived reunion of the Rat Pack--until Dean Martin, having little interest in reliving the glory days, couldn't handle it anymore--and the Ultimate Event Tour, which brought Liza Minelli and Sammy Davis Jr. on board and refreshed the much-needed lining of both their pocketbooks. Weisman also worked with many other acts, including Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, and an ungrateful Don Rickles, whom Weisman helped get out from under the mob's thumb. Over their years together, Weisman became a confidant to the man who trusted few, and he came to know Sinatra's world intimately: his wife, Barbara, who socialized with princesses and presidents and tried to close Sinatra off from his rough and tough friends such as Jilly Rizzo; Nancy Jr., who was closest to her dad; Tina, who aggressively battled for her and her siblings' rights to the Sinatra legacy and was most like her father; and Frank Jr., the child with the most fraught relationship with the legendary entertainer. Ultimately Weisman, who had become the executor of Sinatra's estate, was left alone to navigate the infighting and hatred between those born to the name and the wife who acquired it, when a mystery woman showed up and threatened to throw the family's future into jeopardy. Laden with surprising, moving, and revealing stories, The Way It Was also shows a side of Sinatra few knew. As a lion in winter, he was struggling with the challenges that come with old age, as well as memory loss, depression, and antidepressents. Weisman was by his side through it all, witness to a man who had towering confidence, staggering fearlessness, and a rarely seen vulnerability that became more apparent as his final days approached.
Book Synopsis Surrogacy Was the Way by : Zara Griswold
Download or read book Surrogacy Was the Way written by Zara Griswold and published by Nightengale Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrogacy Was the Way: Twenty Intended Mothers Tell Their Stories documents the true stories of twenty women who had children via surrogacy. Surrogacy is a complete possibility in today's day and age, but anyone considering this route to parenthood should know the pros and cons. The women featured go to surrogacy for a variety of reasons, ranging from Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) to cancer to unexplained infertility and everything in between. Some of the journeys go rather smoothly-while others are filled with one obstacle after another. Some of the women have children already and want to add to their family, while most are attempting to become moms for the first time. What they all have in common, however, is that every woman whose story is told knows what it's like to be an intended mother-the term for the "mother to be" if and when a baby is born. And all of the women ultimately end up having a child (or more) through surrogacy. When I first started researching surrogacy, I was fortunate to find several Online support groups. As I gave and received support to so many other women I became fascinated with the extent to which people would go to simply have a baby. I realized that their stories-our stories-needed to be heard; thus, the idea for this book was born. For the millions of women who have been touched by infertility in some way, or know someone who has, Surrogacy Was the Way will open their eyes to amazing possibilities. It will show them that they do have options, and with persistence and faith, they can achieve their dreams of motherhood after all.
Download or read book The Way It Was written by Ron Teichreb and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many families living in South Russia, Canada was seen as the promised land, a place to escape famine and the communist regime. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, migration from the Motherland was fraught with both fear and promise, the potential for a better life in a new land. The Way It Was is a true chronology of Ron Teichreb’s family, which emigrated from Russia to Saskatchewan where they lived in tune with the land as homesteaders. It’s a story of a hard life softened by glints of joy, seen through vignettes detailing life’s many milestones, such as births, marriages, and deaths. Hijinks and resilience are common themes that the author shares when telling of his boyhood spent growing up on a small farm, playing sports, and exploring other pursuits. Eventually, he introduces the reader to his adulthood, career, and, finally, retirement in Saskatoon.
Book Synopsis That’S the Way It Was by : Benjamin W. Nero DMD
Download or read book That’S the Way It Was written by Benjamin W. Nero DMD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-07-23 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, I lovingly recount the unyielding love and encouragement of my parents, who instilled a deep sense of responsibility and unshakeable confidence in me as well as my four brothers and sisters. My story illustrates a family bound by tradition, loyalty, and love. As the son of a freed slave, my father saw first-hand the daily challenges and obstacles for African Americans in post-slavery America. Both he and my mother implanted in us a clear work ethic, family values, and commitment to education, foundations that have remained with and propelled me throughout life. Thats the Way It Was weaves anecdotal accounts of my educational, athletic, and professional experiences, often with humorous details and sometimes tainted with racial biases as was commonplace in a cotton-farming community deep in segregated, post-depression Mississippi. I share many examples of both throughout the book to provide a realistic view of the world I encountered and somehow navigated relatively unscathed. I would later go on to make history as the first African American graduate of the University of Kentuckys Dental School and as the first African American intern and orthodontic resident at the Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I have been fortunate enough to have had a remarkable forty-five-plus-year career in private practice, always fueled and driven by the unconditional love and support of my family and my small-town community. I hope my story can serve as an inspiration for the younger generations to stay committed to their goals, never give up, and always strive to make the most of their talents.

Book excerpt: THE WAY IT WAS draws a picture of the last half century with its craters and peaks there at your fingertips, shared and explored by caring witnesses who took sides all the way through. It was not by chance that someone called out “Mazel Tov, Palà”, as the news of Franco’s demise swept through a Paris gallery opening. Their lives touched on the vital chords of our times. The story that emerges is humane, often funny, acute and shaded with grace for they knew they were blessed. To contradict the Chinese proverb, they lived in interesting times and enjoyed every minute. The Way It Was shows the reader how.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the leaves turn orange and when summer gives way to fall, I remember my first love and the way it was before reality—before life—happened to us. I suppose we were happy not having a clue what true love feels like and not knowing how the first will affect the way we see it in the future. It was enough for us to be young and to just be with each other. No labels. No certainty. After all, not everyone can actually be sure with their first love, right? My name is Autumn, and this is the story of my first brush with love and the way it was before we knew any better.

Book excerpt: Chart topping-and headline-making-rap artist Eminem shares his private reflections, drawings, handwritten lyrics, and photographs in his New York Times bestseller The Way I Am Fiercely intelligent, relentlessly provocative, and prodigiously gifted, Eminem is known as much for his enigmatic persona as for being the fastest-selling rap artist and the first rapper to ever win an Oscar. Everyone wants to know what Eminem is really like-after the curtains go down. In The Way I Am, Eminem writes candidly, about how he sees the world. About family and friends; about hip-hop and rap battles and his searing rhymes; about the conflicts and challenges that have made him who he is today. Illustrated with more than 200 full-color and black-and-white photographs-including family snapshots and personal Polaroids, it is a visual self-portrait that spans the rapper's entire life and career, from his early childhood in Missouri to the basement home studio he records in today, from Detroit's famous Hip Hop Shop to sold-out arenas around the globe. Readers who have wondered at Em's intricate, eye- opening rhyme patterns can also see, first-hand, the way his mind works in dozens of reproductions of his original lyric sheets, written in pen, on hotel stationary, on whatever scrap of paper was at hand. These lyric sheets, published for the first time here, show uncut genius at work. Taking readers deep inside his creative process, Eminem reckons with the way that chaos and controversy have fueled his music and helped to give birth to some of his most famous songs (including "Stan," "Without Me," and "Lose Yourself"). Providing a personal tour of Eminem's creative process, The Way I Am has been hailed as "fascinating," "compelling," and "candid."

Download or read book THE WAY IT WAS written by G.H. MCMAHON and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-11-03 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE WAY IT WAS is a compilation of several non-fiction short stories, at various periods in the past of a woman's and her family's lives. At times, it may seem like extraordinary happenings to the people of these stories, but they did happen. The stories represent truthful views of a family that were, at times, hilarious, poignant, heartwarming, thoughtful and sometimes sad. These short stories are thought provoking with touches of humor and a bit of satire. These stories take place in an extraordinary period in history, several years before World War II, and a few years after two other wars; They happened when most women did not do the things that the grandmother did in her stories, and at other times what a mother accomplished when most women did not have executive positions in traditionally heavy industrial manufacturing male oriented companies. The woman in these unique stories had the courage and the intestinal fortitude to carry on through many discouraging times and still find the humor to laugh at herself. The young man, a typical young and naive teenager, shows ingenuity and drive, which showed up in later years again, when he received the Bronze Star for his service to our country. A story that has yet to be told. The sister blazed a trail to be one of the first in her field for a major company. There are lessons for the young to learn and a verification of life as it was, or could, have been by elders. It is also the process of a written history to the families of the people in days, long past. The stories show that good stories can and are written that do not have to be filled with unsuitable language or sex to be exciting and interesting.
Download or read book I Was Born This Way written by Doug Green and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his memoir I Was Born This Way, Doug Green shares his seventy-year journey as a homosexual man and divulges the challenges and life lessons he faced along the way. As a boy growing up in the 1940s, Green endured endless teasing from his peers who mocked his lisp and mincing gait. Timid and fearful, he seemed to disappoint his parents at every turn. As a teenager, a psychiatrist suggested military prep school as a way to encourage Green to outgrow what he considered to be a "phase." But Green knew what he was feeling was not just a stage-he was gay. As Green reveals his early attractions to men, he also discloses how he posed as a heterosexual for many years, a decision that not only hurt himself, but also others in his life. During a time when being homosexual was not widely accepted in society, Green details how a move to New York City finally provided the balm for his shattered self-esteem, eventually leading him into the arms of his life companion. I Was Born This Way offers an honest, self-disclosing glimpse into one man's life as he finds respect, understanding, and finally, self-acceptance.
Download or read book I Was Born This Way written by Carl Bean and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In I Was Born This Way, Carl Bean, former Motown recording artist, noted AIDS activist, and founder of the Unity Fellowship of Christ Church in Los Angeles, shares his extraordinary personal journey from Baltimore foster homes to the stage of the Apollo Theater and beyond. CARL BEAN has been crossing boundaries all his life and helping others do the same. He’s never been stopped by his race or orientation, never fit or stayed in the boxes people have wanted to put him in. He left his foster home in Baltimore at seventeen and took the bus to New York City, where he quickly found the rich culture of the Harlem churches. As a singer, first with the gospel Alex Bradford Singers and later as a Motown recording artist, Bean was a sensation. When Berry Gordy signed him to record "I Was Born This Way," it was a first: the biggest black-owned record company broadcasting a statement on gender identity. The #1 song, recorded with the Sweet Inspirations, was the first gay liberation dance club hit. Whether making records, educating the black community about HIV and AIDS, or preaching to his growing congregation, Archbishop Bean has never wanted to minister to just one group. He’s worked on AIDS issues with C. Everett Koop and Elizabeth Taylor and on civil rights issues with Maxine Waters, Julian Bond, and Reverend Joseph Lowery. At the height of his recording career, he worked with Dionne Warwick, Burt Bacharach, Miles Davis, and Sammy Davis Jr. He’s brought South Central Los Angeles gang members into his church, which now has 25,000 members in twelve cities nationwide; those same Crips and Bloods have shown up at the Gay Pride parades Bean has organized with U.S. Congresswoman Maxine Waters. And he has courageously devoted his time and energy to spurring black civil rights leaders to address the AIDS health crisis within the African American community—an issue on which they had been silent. Preaching an all-embracing progressive theology, he is an outspoken practitioner of brotherly love, a dynamic preacher, and a social activist. The Unity Fellowship message is grace: "God is love, and God is for everyone"; "God is gay, God is straight, God is black, God is white." I Was Born This Way is the rare personal history of one of black gospel’s biggest stars and a frank, powerful, and warmhearted testament to how one man found his calling.
