Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is your dream? Do you want to live life on your own terms? Do you have a desire to leave the status quo behind, but fear stops you from pursuing your dreams? This is what many people struggle with every morning as they prepare for the workday ahead. Some people feel there is something else better out there for them, but few take the time to discover what that something else is. When you take the first step to face your fears and pursue your dreams, this is where the real journey begins. For fifteen years of my life I was running away from pursuing my dreams because of fear. I settled for the status quo, while acting as a mechanical robot working different jobs without a true purpose to follow. I just existed in the world around me watching other people live their dreams wondering why I wasn't happy. I settled for an easier path. I pursued jobs instead of pursuing my dreams. A series of events led me to discover my passion. As a result, I decided to push past my fears to quit my job at a leading entertainment company to pursue my dreams. It is time for you to live your dreams. In this book I identify common fears, which prevent most people from pursuing their dreams. You will learn how to push past these fears to begin your journey. Get ready to prepare for your own Dreamer's Journey. Do you have the courage to fight your fears to pursue your dreams?

Download or read book Dreamers written by Yuyi Morales and published by Holiday House. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are resilience. We are hope. We are dreamers. Yuyi Morales brought her hopes, her passion, her strength, and her stories with her, when she came to the United States in 1994 with her infant son. She left behind nearly everything she owned, but she didn't come empty-handed. From the author-illustrator of Bright Star, Dreamers is a celebration of making your home with the things you always carry: your resilience, your dreams, your hopes and history. It's the story of finding your way in a new place, of navigating an unfamiliar world and finding the best parts of it. In dark times, it's a promise that you can make better tomorrows. This lovingly-illustrated picture book memoir looks at the myriad gifts migrantes bring with them when they leave their homes. It's a story about family. And it's a story to remind us that we are all dreamers, bringing our own strengths wherever we roam. Beautiful and powerful at any time but given particular urgency as the status of our own Dreamers becomes uncertain, this is a story that is both topical and timeless. The lyrical text is complemented by sumptuously detailed illustrations, rich in symbolism. Also included are a brief autobiographical essay about Yuyi's own experience, a list of books that inspired her (and still do), and a description of the beautiful images, textures, and mementos she used to create this book. A parallel Spanish-language edition, Soñadores, is also available. Winner of the Pura Belpré Illustrator Award!

Download or read book The Journey of the Dreamer written by Donavon Roberson and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-24 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Journey of the Dreamer is a guide. It is not a definitive work, not an academic study, not a scientific publication. It is a guide--one meant to encourage and inspire you to live into your destiny. My desire is that, by the end of this book, we have come to some understanding that allows for the cynic and the dreamer to lock arms and create something amazing together. As kids, we could be anyone, we could go anywhere, we could do anything that we could imagine. Our imaginations weren't limited to budgets, timelines, or value. Our dreams were free of fear and free to roam. We could drive a submarine in the deepest caverns of the ocean one moment, and in the next we could be flying through the open skies without the need of any machinery or propulsion device. We were free. We were dreamers. We were alive.The only limits to our dreams were those of our own imaginations! Think about it. We could be anyone, do anything, go anywhere! If we could dream it, we could do it ... and we did.As life moved on, many of us left our childhood dreams for more measurable and more acceptable aspirations. We were convinced our dreams were unrealistic. We were instructed on what dreams were acceptable. We were encouraged to be more logical with our choices and to go the way of the culture and march to the beat of the drum of safety and security. We were told that it would the responsible thing to dive into a career while still young and plan to go after our dreams once we had made something of ourselves. And so we did. As life moved on, many of us stopped actively dreaming because we looked at people around us and realized that this world doesn't value dreamers or their dreams; instead, we value what's practical and reasonable.Life has a way of getting in the way. Life has a way of slipping through our fingers. Life has a way of moving on while we simply watch in disbelief. Time slips by. Minutes become hours, become days, become weeks, become years, become decades. Before we know it, we are entrenched in the process of making something of ourselves. Before we know it, we have barricaded ourselves behind responsibilities of every kind. Before we know it, our dreams are but a distant memory, and we have become a shadow of our former selves.That's what this journey is all about: to help people break free from monotonous lives and to live the life of their dreams. That's my calling and my passion. I tell people this all the time, and I truly believe it: my purpose in life is to help reconnect you with your greatness. In other words, to help you become the greatest version of yourself possible.I want to take you on a journey to understand that you're able to dream; in fact, that you were designed and created to dream. All of us human beings were. Our dreams are simply an extension of our personalities and an extension of our purpose.
Download or read book Areli Is a Dreamer written by Areli Morales and published by Random House Studio. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first picture book written by a DACA Dreamer, Areli Morales tells her own powerful and vibrant immigration story. When Areli was just a baby, her mama and papa moved from Mexico to New York with her brother, Alex, to make a better life for the family--and when she was in kindergarten, they sent for her, too. Everything in New York was different. Gone were the Saturdays at Abuela’s house, filled with cousins and sunshine. Instead, things were busy and fast and noisy. Areli’s limited English came out wrong, and schoolmates accused her of being illegal. But with time, America became her home. And she saw it as a land of opportunity, where millions of immigrants who came before her paved their own paths. She knew she would, too. This is a moving story--one that resonates with millions of immigrants who make up the fabric of our country--about one girl living in two worlds, a girl whose DACA application was eventually approved and who is now living her American dream. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is an immigration policy that has provided relief to thousands of undocumented children, referred to as “Dreamers,” who came to the United States as children and call this country home.

Download or read book We Were Dreamers written by Simu Liu and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The star of Marvel’s first Asian superhero film, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, tells his own origin story of being a Chinese immigrant, his battles with cultural stereotypes and his own identity, becoming a TV star, and landing the role of a lifetime. In this honest, inspiring and relatable memoir, newly-minted superhero Simu Liu chronicles his family's journey from China to the bright lights of Hollywood with razor-sharp wit and humor. Simu's parents left him in the care of his grandparents, then brought him to Canada when he was four. Life as a Canuck, however, is not all that it was cracked up to be; Simu's new guardians lack the gentle touch of his grandparents, resulting in harsh words and hurt feelings. His parents, on the other hand, find their new son emotionally distant and difficult to relate to - although they are related by blood, they are separated by culture, language, and values. As Simu grows up, he plays the part of the pious child flawlessly - he gets straight A's, crushes national math competitions and makes his parents proud. But as time passes, he grows increasingly disillusioned with the path that has been laid out for him. Less than a year out of college, at the tender age of 22, his life hits rock bottom when he is laid off from his first job as an accountant. Left to his own devices, and with nothing left to lose, Simu embarks on a journey that will take him far outside of his comfort zone into the world of show business. Through a swath of rejection and comical mishaps, Simu's determination to carve out a path for himself leads him to not only succeed as an actor, but also to open the door to reconciling with his parents. We Were Dreamers is more than a celebrity memoir - it's a story about growing up between cultures, finding your family, and becoming the master of your own extraordinary circumstance.
Download or read book Journeys North written by Barney Scout Mann and published by Mountaineers Books. This book was released on 2020-08-01 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 Banff Mountain Book Competition Finalist in Adventure Travel In Journeys North, legendary trail angel, thru hiker, and former PCTA board member Barney Scout Mann spins a compelling tale of six hikers on the Pacific Crest Trail in 2007 as they walk from Mexico to Canada. This ensemble story unfolds as these half-dozen hikers--including Barney and his wife, Sandy--trod north, slowly forming relationships and revealing their deepest secrets and aspirations. They face a once-in-a-generation drought and early severe winter storms that test their will in this bare-knuckled adventure. In fact, only a third of all the hikers who set out on the trail that year would finish. As the group approaches Canada, a storm rages. How will these very different hikers, ranging in age, gender, and background, respond to the hardship and suffering ahead of them? Can they all make the final 60-mile push through freezing temperatures, sleet, and snow, or will some reach their breaking point? Journeys North is a story of grit, compassion, and the relationships people forge when they strive toward a common goal.
Download or read book Awakening the Dreamer written by Philip M. Bromberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Awakening the Dreamer: Clinical Journeys, Philip Bromberg continues the illuminating explorations into dissociation and clinical process begun in Standing in the Spaces (1998). Bromberg is among our most gifted clinical writers, especially in his unique ability to record peripheral variations in relatedness - those subtle, split-second changes that capture the powerful workings of dissociation and chart the changing self-states that analyst and patient bring to the moment. For Bromberg, a model of mind premised on the centrality of self-states and dissociation not only offers the optimal lens for comprehending and interpreting clinical data; it also provides maximum leverage for achieving true intersubjective relatedness. And this manner of looking at clinical data offers the best vantage point for integrating psychoanalytic experience with the burgeoning findings of contemporary neuroscience, cognitive and developmental psychology, and attachment research. Dreams are approached not as texts in need of deciphering but as means of contacting genuine but not yet fully conscious self-states. From here, he explores how the patient's "dreamer" and the analyst's "dreamer" can come together to turn the "real" into the "really real" of mutative therapeutic dialogue. The "difficult," frequently traumatized patient is newly appraised in terms of tensions within the therapeutic dyad. And then there is the "haunted" patient who carries a sense of preordained doom through years of otherwise productive work - until the analyst can finally feel the patient's doom as his or her own. Laced with Bromberg's characteristic honesty, humor, and thoughtfulness, these essays elegantly attest to the mind's reliance on dissociation, in both normal and pathological variants, in the ongoing effort to maintain self-organization. Awakening the Dreamer, no less than Standing in the Spaces, is destined to become a permanent part of the literature on therapeutic process and change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A schoolteacher still reeling from the tragedies of the Great War and the influenza epidemic travels to the Middle East in this memorable and passionate novel “Marvelous . . . a stirring story of personal awakening set against the background of a crucial moment in modern history.”—The Washington Post Agnes Shanklin, a forty-year-old schoolteacher from Ohio, has come into a modest inheritance that allows her to take the trip of a lifetime to Egypt and the Holy Land. Arriving at the Semiramis Hotel just as the 1921 Cairo Peace Conference convenes, she is freed for the first time from her mother’s withering influence and finds herself being wooed by a handsome, mysterious German. At the same time, Agnes—with her plainspoken American opinions—is drawn into the company of Winston Churchill, T. E. Lawrence, and Lady Gertrude Bell, who will, in the space of a few days, redraw the world map to create the modern Middle East. As they change history, Agnes too will find her own life transformed forever. With prose as graceful and effortless as a seductive float down the Nile, Mary Doria Russell illuminates the long, rich history of the Middle East with a story that brilliantly elucidates today’s headlines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepare to Be Mentored by the Sacred Hags!

Wonderfully inclusive, with adaptations for families, spiritual groups, and other traditions, this book is a potentially life-changing guide to living mystically, magically, and in empowering harmony with the worlds of spirit and nature.
