Book Synopsis The Teacher Within by : Nelda C. Toothman
Download or read book The Teacher Within written by Nelda C. Toothman and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing the Best in Children. Those who became educators entered this field to make a difference in the lives of children. Many have come to question possibility of doing so. Over the past decade the media have characterized the Nation's schools as seriously declining environments: reports of bullying, racial tensions, and escalating violence have become commonplace. Most teachers must battle another growing distraction: the high stakes test mania. The state threatens the district office personnel, who in turn pressure the principals, who pressure the teachers, who transmit the stress to students. Increasing numbers of teachers grow dissatisfied w/ their lack of autonomy & creativity & move to change careers. More talented & effective school principals forsake their leadership roles through early retirements, & there are fewer candidates seeking these administrative positions. These are times when growing children must learn how to be resilient, to emerge from the very dangers, setbacks & uncertainties that tend to cripple others, to lead healthy, productive lives. Studies of such resilient children have shown that most important factor in nearly every case was a supportive one-on-one relationship w/ a caring adult. The Teacher Within touches our complex, troubling days w/ its refreshing ray of hope. It should be required reading for all of us who need to get back in touch w/ our prime reasons for being. Whether we're teachers, managers, coaches/parents, Nelda Toothman's introspection motivates us to rethink our own lives & behaviors, to analyze how we will respond to the challenges we face individually.

Download or read book Recovering written by May Sarton and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-12-16 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An affecting diary of one year’s hardships and healing, by one of the twentieth century’s most extraordinary memoirists For decades, readers have celebrated May Sarton’s journals for their candid look at relationships, success and failure, communion with nature, and the curious stages of aging. In Recovering, Sarton focuses on her sixty-sixth year—one marked by the turmoil of a mastectomy, the end of a treasured relationship, and the loneliness that visits a life of chosen solitude. Each deeply felt entry in the journal, written between 1978 and 1979, is laced with poignancy and honesty as she grapples with a cold reception for her latest novel, the sad descent of a close friend into senility, and other struggles. Despite the trials of this one painful year, Sarton writes of her progression toward a hard-won renewal, achieved through good friendships, the levity provided by her cherished dog, and peaceful days in her garden. A candid account of Sarton’s revival from personal darkness back into light, Recovering is another stunning entry in the author’s irrepressible oeuvre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Mindell examines addictions & relationships, time travel, lucid healing & preventive medicine, and Dreaming as world work.” —The Dream Network Journal What if you could dream twenty-four hours a day, even while awake? According to innovative psychotherapist Arnold Mindell, Ph.D., we already do. The seeds of dreaming arise in every moment of the day, in body symptoms, problems, relationships, subtle feelings, interactions, random thoughts, and fantasies. We’re getting countless little cues from the unconscious every minute. All are signs from the world of dreaming. And, according to Mindell, we can be in this state of lucid dreaming all day long. In Dreaming While Awake, Mindell shows how to become aware of these “flirts” from the dreamworld and how to interpret their message. The goal, he says, is to be wide awake and lucid 24 hours a day in the midst of this unending dreamfield of information. Practicing twenty-four-hour lucid dreaming: Helps you solve personal, physical, and emotional problems Serves as a preventive medicine for relationships and health, helping you catch the earliest warning signs before they turn into problems Helps resolve conflicts in relationships, families, large groups, corporations, even politics Dreaming is the mystical source of reality, says Mindell. “My goal is to make the Dreaming roots of reality so accessible, so visceral, that your conscious mind will give you back your right to dream.”

Book excerpt: The third volume in Gary Jennings' historical epic that began with the Aztec and Aztec Autumn. Now comes the thrilling Aztec Blood.

Download or read book The Metamorphoses written by Ovid and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-11-03 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ovid’s famous mock epic—a treasury of myth and magic that is one of the greatest literary works of classical antiquity—is rendered into fluidly poetic English by world-renowned translator Allen Mandelbaum. Roman poet Ovid’s dazzling cycle of tales begins with the creation of the world and ends with the deification of Caesar Augustus. In between is a glorious panoply of the most famous myths and legends of the ancient Greek and Roman world—from Echo’s passion for Narcissus to Pygmalion’s living statue, from Perseus’s defeat of Medusa to the fall of Troy. Retold with Ovid’s irreverent flair, these tales are united by the theme of metamorphosis, as men and women are rendered alien to themselves, turned variously to flowers, trees, animals, and stones. The closest thing to a central character is love itself—a confounding, transforming, irrational force that makes fools of gods and mortals alike. The poem’s playful verses, both sensually earthy and wittily sophisticated, have reverberated through the centuries, inspiring countless artists and writers from Shakespeare to the present. Frequently translated, imitated, and adapted, The Metamorphoses has lost none of its power to provoke and entertain.
Book Synopsis A Distant and Beautiful Place by : Kwija Yang
Download or read book A Distant and Beautiful Place written by Kwija Yang and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2002-10-31 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Somewhere on the periphery of Seoul, between the modern metropolis and the traditional farming communities, lies a "distant and beautiful place," the neighborhood of Wonmi-dong. Here, a young couple from the city struggles to make a home for themselves; a hapless "salary man" is forced into door-to-door sales after losing his job; a precocious seven-year-old questions the meaning of friendship and community. Everyone seems to be chasing the intangible dream of a better life. Set against the backdrop of South Korea's breakneck drive for industrialization and economic development in the 1980s, these compassionate and often humorous stories capture the essence of modern South Korean life-including the ubiquitous atmosphere of violence and fear that clouded the country prior to democratization in 1987. They also depict the Korean people's unfailing optimism and love of life. A Distant and Beautiful Place first appeared as a series of linked stories in literary journals between 1985 and 1987. It was published as the collection Wonmi-dong saramdul in 1987 and quickly became a best seller. Yang Kwija, one of South Korea's most respected and popular authors, has since published dozens of novels and shorter pieces.

Download or read book Legacy written by Marcum Davis and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-11 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legacy was written to simplify the process and accelerate people’s pursuit of a purposeful life filled with the satisfaction and impact their hearts are longing for. Legacy makers aren’t born. They’re made. It has been taught that legacies were meant for the rich, famous, world leaders, and innovators. However, after observing a relatively unknown man build a legacy that rivaled many of the most notable people in history, Marcum Davis came to understand that legacies are not reserved for the elite. In fact, they are attainable for people from all walks of life. But how does one build a legacy? How can a “regular” person lead an impactful life of purpose and fulfillment worth remembering? After years of study and practice, Marcum discovered a fundamental five-part formula that anyone can apply to their daily lives, known as the P.E.A.C.E. Legacy Formula, which he shares in the pages of Legacy. Following the P.E.A.C.E. Legacy Formula will begin to improve one’s quality of life from the start, as they begin to feel their excitement and energy rise up and touch everything they do. Legacy was written for anyone who wants to make the most of each day and live a more meaningful life. It serves as a guide and support system in the creation of a life and legacy that impacts not only the individual, but their loved ones, and the world around them.
