Book Synopsis Dancing My Dream by : Warren Petoskey
Download or read book Dancing My Dream written by Warren Petoskey and published by David Crumm Media. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir of Native American teacher, writer and artist Warren Petoskey spans centuries and lights up shadowy corners of American history with important memories of Indian culture and survival. Warren's family connects with many key episodes in Indian history, including the tragedy of boarding schools that imprisoned thousands of Indian children as well as the traumatic effects of alcohol abuse and bigotry. He writes honestly about the impact of these tragedies, and continually returns to Indian traditions as the deepest healing resources for native peoples. He writes about the wisdom that comes from practices such as fishing, hunting and sharing poetry. This memoir is an essential voice in the chorus of Indian leaders testifying to major chapters of American history largely missing from most narratives of our nation's past.

Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why he behaved the way he had? Why he seemed on one day cold and distant, and the other totally in love with you? Why he makes you feel special one moment and crap the next? Why the man that you love is the same man that can make you feel as if you're on top of the world and buried under it the next? But most of all, have you ever really really wondered, why until today you haven't found the right man? Why you go on one experience after the other, in trial mode and you still have not struck it right? We all know that experiences help shape who we are, but when is 'enough' really 'enough'? Set as film in progress, enter the author's mind and journey to explore all the mishaps, delusions, ecstasy, lust, love and tenderness as it lends a hand to help us discover a part of ourselves that we have long forgotten. After all, Passion is the only thread that ties us altogether.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * Winner of the 2003 Barbara Savage Miles from Nowhere Award * A blend of romance, humor, and adventure on the Pacific Crest Trail * Written in "he said/she said" alternating chapters, this young couple each tell their own story They're not sure which came first -- falling in love with each other or falling in love with the idea of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail (the length of California, Oregon, and Washington). At the trailhead, the young couple was warned that there would be tears, that each would have to find their own separate pace, and that at times the tent would seem awfully small for the two of them. They were told that their biggest obstacles to success would be . . . each other. Their first surprise: freeze-dried meals do funny things to your GI- tract. Their first fight: when Angela noticed that Duffy's long legs propel him along the trail faster than she can muster. But on they pressed -- encountering snakes, bears, and fellow thru-hikers with trail names like Crazy Legs and Catch 23. They baked in the deserts of Southern California, gazed awestruck at the snowy, serrated peaks of the High Sierra, and attempted to hide from Northern Washington's seemingly incessant rain. One hundred thirty two days of Pacific Crest Trail later, they made it -- blisters and all.
Book Synopsis The Path Of The Omega Point: The novel that foretold the destruction of Mexico... and the world by : Luis Berman

This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story is set in a near future where reality and fantasy coexist. The consequences of poor decisions made by humanity, society, and individuals have taken a toll. Pre-Hispanic and European mythology converge in this tale. It follows the journey of a hero, a warrior, as they navigate the battle between Light and Darkness across di erent alternate worlds stacked on top of each other. It follows the journey of a hero, a warrior, as they navigate the battle between Light and Darkness across di erent alternate worlds stacked on top of each other. It follows the journey of a hero, a warrior, as they navigate the battle between Light and Darkness across di erent alternate worlds stacked on top of each other. Decisions hold the key to freedom. The text aims to question political and religious discourses and encourage re ection through everyday phrases and elements. In the year 2077, Mexico City is in ruins and globalized popular culture is intertwined with characters from other worlds and dimensions. Gargoyles and angels, demons and shaman-nahuales ght to the death. In the Plaza de Toros Mexico, Mexican prison inmates engage in ghts reminiscent of the Roman coliseum. The ghts involve chases, shootouts, and explosions between rusty Ford Raptors and rebuilt Harley Davidsons in the middle of Insurgentes and Reforma avenues, which have been devastated by social movements, earthquakes, and pandemics. A war helicopter destroys the Angel de la Independencia with a missile. The scene is full of action, blows, and explosions. Our characters listen to Enrique Bunbury and Leonard Cohen through a holographic player while getting drunk. They also enjoy the music of Mick Jagger, Axl Rose, Steven Tyler, and Vince Neil, as well as the chords of Keith Richards, Slash, Joe Perry, and Mick Mars. These elements re ect various forms of human behavior. This gives us a clear picture: Politically speaking, the world is fading away. Mexico has been devastated by social movements and health crises. The population has been reduced by half. Mexico City is in ruins, and there is no law. It is a no man's land. Ollin, our main character, leads a monotonous life playing guitar in a local bar called 'El Mezcalero' with his three friends: Hamp, the British bass player, Denis, the French drummer, and Aragón, the Spanish vocalist. Their band, 'Calmecac,' is visited one day by a character who will change Ollin's perspective on things. Juan Huitze, a shaman, will serve as the protagonist's mentor, introducing him to a mystical and spiritual world. The story will feature physical and spiritual confrontations between gargoyles, angels, and other mythological beings in our reality. Ollín will search for the tomb of Fray Juan de Zumárraga. He will meet Tezcatlipoca in the ruins of the Templo Mayor under the Cathedral of Mexico City, as well as Quetzalcóatl in Teotihuacán. Then, he will visit the tomb of Pacal in Palenque and nally arrive at Chichen Itzá. There, he will descend to the Underworld or Xibalbá with the twins Junajpú and Xbalanqué. The court of Baoth and his cursed angels are preparing for the arrival of a hybrid being, half angel and half human. This being aims to take over the energy and consciousness of humanity, submerging them in darkness for all eternity. Ollin's task is to help humanity transcend to a multidimensional level, where the Mayan phrase 'In Lak'Ech Hala Ken' takes on its full meaning: 'I am you, you are me.' During a galactic alignment, it is the appropriate time for the sacri ce to take place. The cycle must come to a close as time is ending. This cycle represents The Path to the Omega Point, where everything and everyone will become one with the universal consciousness.

Embark on a cross-country cycling adventure in this exciting sequel that finds author Larry Walsh on yet another solo trek across America. Here, Walsh brings readers along for the ride of a lifetime: 4,200 miles, cutting across ten states, from Oregon to Virginia. The Trans Am Bike Race is so grueling that less than 300 solo riders in the last decade have crossed the finish line. But Walsh did just that. Reaching the Yorktown Victory Monument, however, is just a small part of this tale. In this inspiring follow-up to Suit to Saddle, we find Walsh a year removed from his fortuitous layoff that spurred his first cross-country voyage of self-discovery. This time we join the Army veteran on another exhilarating pilgrimage that’s sure to reawaken that long-dormant sense of adventure, broaden horizons, and challenge the default notions of the American people. All the while, Walsh inspires readers to reconnect with their own goals and ambitions, proving that even the most daunting journey is possible with determination and faith. Meet colorful folks from across the country as Walsh cycles through over 300 towns, and experience the ever-changing countryside, from scaling mountains to pedaling through sacred Native lands. This love letter to the American road is sure to light a fire and set readers on the course for their own unforgettable journey. For anyone feeling obsolete or past their prime, Walsh proves it’s never too late to start the race of a lifetime.

Download or read book Becoming Kin written by Patty Krawec and published by Broadleaf Books . This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We find our way forward by going back. The invented history of the Western world is crumbling fast, Anishinaabe writer Patty Krawec says, but we can still honor the bonds between us. Settlers dominated and divided, but Indigenous peoples won't just send them all "home." Weaving her own story with the story of her ancestors and with the broader themes of creation, replacement, and disappearance, Krawec helps readers see settler colonialism through the eyes of an Indigenous writer. Settler colonialism tried to force us into one particular way of living, but the old ways of kinship can help us imagine a different future. Krawec asks, What would it look like to remember that we are all related? How might we become better relatives to the land, to one another, and to Indigenous movements for solidarity? Braiding together historical, scientific, and cultural analysis, Indigenous ways of knowing, and the vivid threads of communal memory, Krawec crafts a stunning, forceful call to "unforget" our history. This remarkable sojourn through Native and settler history, myth, identity, and spirituality helps us retrace our steps and pick up what was lost along the way: chances to honor rather than violate treaties, to see the land as a relative rather than a resource, and to unravel the history we have been taught.

Book Synopsis Darcy's Passions by : Regina Jeffers
Download or read book Darcy's Passions written by Regina Jeffers and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-02-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witty, romantic and insightful, Darcy’s Passions captures the original style and sardonic humor of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice while turning the entire story on its head. Written from the perspective of Fitzwilliam Darcy, this novel tells his version of an improbable, even obsessive relationship with a most impossible woman—Elizabeth Bennet. This novel reveals Darcy’s passion and conviction but also his turmoil. Darcy knows that duty to family and estate demands he choose a woman of refined tastes. Yet, what his mind tells him to do and what his heart knows to be true tear him in opposite directions. He loves a woman he first denies for being unworthy, but it is he who is found wanting when Elizabeth Bennet refuses his proposal of marriage. Devastated, Darcy must search his soul and transform himself into the man she can love and respect.
Book Synopsis So Good They Can't Ignore You by : Cal Newport
Download or read book So Good They Can't Ignore You written by Cal Newport and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an unorthodox approach, Georgetown University professor Cal Newport debunks the long-held belief that "follow your passion" is good advice, and sets out on a quest to discover the reality of how people end up loving their careers. Not only are pre-existing passions rare and have little to do with how most people end up loving their work, but a focus on passion over skill can be dangerous, leading to anxiety and chronic job hopping. Spending time with organic farmers, venture capitalists, screenwriters, freelance computer programmers, and others who admitted to deriving great satisfaction from their work, Newport uncovers the strategies they used and the pitfalls they avoided in developing their compelling careers. Cal reveals that matching your job to a pre-existing passion does not matter. Passion comes after you put in the hard work to become excellent at something valuable, not before. In other words, what you do for a living is much less important than how you do it. With a title taken from the comedian Steve Martin, who once said his advice for aspiring entertainers was to "be so good they can't ignore you," Cal Newport's clearly written manifesto is mandatory reading for anyone fretting about what to do with their life, or frustrated by their current job situation and eager to find a fresh new way to take control of their livelihood. He provides an evidence-based blueprint for creating work you love, and will change the way you think about careers, happiness, and the crafting of a remarkable life.
Book Synopsis The Passions of Andrew Jackson by : Andrew Burstein
Download or read book The Passions of Andrew Jackson written by Andrew Burstein and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people vaguely imagine Andrew Jackson as a jaunty warrior and a man of the people, but he was much more—a man just as complex and controversial as Jefferson or Lincoln. Now, with the first major reinterpretation of his life in a generation, historian Andrew Burstein brings back Jackson with all his audacity and hot-tempered rhetoric. The unabashedly aggressive Jackson came of age in the Carolinas during the American Revolution, migrating to Tennessee after he was orphaned at the age of fourteen. Little more than a poorly educated frontier bully when he first opened his public career, he was possessed of a controlling sense of honor that would lead him into more than one duel. As a lover, he fled to Spanish Mississippi with his wife-to-be before she was divorced. Yet when he was declared a national hero upon his stunning victory at the Battle of New Orleans, Jackson suddenly found the presidency within his grasp. How this brash frontiersman took Washington by storm makes a fascinating story, and Burstein tells it thoughtfully and expertly. In the process he reveals why Jackson was so fiercely loved (and fiercely hated) by the American people, and how his presidency came to shape the young country’s character.
Book Synopsis The Vision Keepers by : Doug Alderson
Download or read book The Vision Keepers written by Doug Alderson and published by Quest Books. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are all seekers. Some find their path on pilgrimage to the Mahabodhi Temple in India or the Haji Ali mausoleum as they embark on a journey to Mecca; others find God at the burial site of St. James in the Cathedral de Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain. Author and environmentalist Doug Alderson meets the Great Spirit through the ancient spiritual practice of walking. The Vision Keepers is the compelling true story of a seeker who, under the guidance of Bear Heart, a Muskogee Creek Indian and Medicine Man, finds unity with our nation’s native people and reconnects with the earth through profound and mysterious means. At a time when our global community is in great conflict, we can learn much from Native Americans. The Vision Keepers not only recounts the story of one man’s experience with native people and their spirituality, but it offers unique insight into the struggles of an entire culture, personal reconciliation, world peace, and preservation of the Earth and its ancient wisdom.
