Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change, peak oil and economic instability aren't just future social problems -- they jeopardize our homes and families right now. Our once-abundant food supply is being threatened by toxic chemical agriculture, rising food prices and crop shortages brought on by climate change. Funding for education and health care is strained to the limit, and safe and affordable housing is disappearing. Depletion and Abundance explains how we are living beyond our means with or without a peak oil/climate change crisis and that, either way, we must learn to place our families and local communities at the center of our thinking once again. The author presents strategies to create stronger homes, better health and a richer family life and to live comfortably with an uncertain energy supply prepare children for a hotter, lower energy, less secure world survive and thrive in an economy in crisis, and maintain a kitchen garden to supply basic food needs. Most importantly, readers will discover that depletion can lead to abundance, and the anxiety of these uncertain times can be turned into a gift of hope and action. An unusual family perspective on the topic, this book will appeal to all those interested in securing a future for their children and grandchildren.

In this very special collection he invites us to share in fifteen letters to sent to his godson, Laurence Wells. Each letter, sent on the anniversary of Laurence’s baptism every year, distills years of self-reflection and religious thinking into heartfelt notes packed with wit, warmth and verve.

An introduction by Samuel Wells—Laurence’s father—tells the story behind these letters and offers insight into being a godparent.

Download or read book Interpretations written by Raymond Paul and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-08 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a magical, eye-opening and poetic book of subtle shifting to renewed clarity and self-discovery. Originally conceived as a blog during a shift in the author’s life from Corporate to Conscious, and inspired by the New York Times’ bestselling author Dr. Wayne Dyer’s Change Your Thoughts—Change Your Life, Raymond Paul’s work flows beautifully as he interprets the 81 spiritual verses of the ancient Chinese philosopher Lao-tzu’s Tao Te Ching. The author encourages humanity to slow down, breathe, take in and experience the beautiful gift of life. A life of meaning, balance, honour and purpose. The poetry speaks to the way life is supposed to be lived, how the paradoxes we experience affect our everyday lives—the yin and yang—how everything holds opposites. It is about connection—everything as one—and the importance of authentic love. Interpretations speaks about trust, belief, and the ability to be the best that each of us can be, but most of all it is about heart. When we live from the heart, we are living our truth, our calling, and what we are joyfully meant to do. It’s about how to live the Tao.
