Download or read book Take A Walk Through My Mind written by Angela Wignall and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I discovered many years ago that writing poetry is therapeutic for my anxious mind. Scribbling down words and rearranging them to form a poem, enables my unruly thoughts to escape from my head. This little book contains a selection of thought provoking, but ultimately, uplifting poems, composed by the author. That's me! The poems are complimented by the true story of how I developed my writing skills. First attempts in those early days were filled with fun and laughter for my family and friends. As I journeyed through life and experienced the highs and lows of living on this planet, my poetry became more inspirational and I am told, helpful to others struggling with bereavement, anxiety or just coping with today's fast pace of living. I hope you enjoy reading Take A Walk Through My Mind and perhaps will be inspired to put pen to paper yourself. Go For It!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great poetry calls into question everything. It dares us to break free from the safe strategies of the cautious mind. It opens us to pain and joy and delight. It amazes, startles, pierces, and transforms us. It can lead to communion and grace. Through the voices of ten inspiring poets and his own reflections, the author of Sacred America shows how poetry illuminates the eternal feelings and desires that stir the human heart and soul. These poems explore such universal themes as the awakening of wonder, the longing for love, the wisdom of dreams, and the courage required to live an authentic life. In thoughtful commentary on each work, Housden offers glimpses into his personal spiritual journey and invites readers to contemplate the significance of the poet's message in their own lives. In Ten Poems to Change Your Life, Roger Housden shows how these astonishing poems can inspire you to live what you always knew in your bones but never had the words for.

Download or read book A Walk Through Life Book of Poems written by Antoine Kidd and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2019-04-13 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You know that moment when you just sit back and think about life and say to yourself, "where would I be right now if I would've made different decisions in my past? If I would've made a right turn instead of a left, where would I be standing right now? If I would've driven just a little bit slower and actually enjoyed the trip I was taking? That moment when someone told me not to do something and I did it anyway." Should you regret some of the things you've done in your life? Maybe if you wouldn't have done those things, your life would be better, maybe even worse. We've all done things in our past that we aren't proud of, but we just have to move past those things and continue forward. Sometimes it's the small things that affect your life in a major way and the big things may have no effect at all. Should you tip toe through life, remaining cautious at every turn you make? Or should you put the pedal to the metal and roll over every speed bump you encounter. Take a second to think. If you had the choice to change your past, what would you change? Would you change the way you reacted to someone who disrespected you? How different do you think the outcome would be? Would that one moment of retaliation be worth all of the trouble it may cause? All in all, It's not about where you come from, but where you want to go. Never be a product of your environment. If you believe in god, I don't think he wants you to fail in life. Just think about all the things that you go through and make it out of with no problems. He has a plan for everyone, and they are all different. He doesn't have a plan for anyone to fall and never get back up. Just trust and believe in yourself and know you can accomplish great things. Never belittle yourself and say what you can't do. Never say you regret the decisions that you've made in your life and never say you wish you could turn back the hands of time. There is nothing wrong with your life, you just have to gra

Book excerpt: A dazzling debut collection of raw and explosive poems about growing up in a sexist, sensationalized world, from a thrilling new feminist voice. i’m a good girl, bad girl, dream girl, sad girl girl next door sunbathing in the driveway i wanna be them all at once, i wanna be all the girls I’ve ever loved —from “Girl” Lauded for the power of her writing and having attracted an online fan base of millions for her extraordinary spoken-word performances, Olivia Gatwood now weaves together her own coming-of-age with an investigation into our culture’s romanticization of violence against women. At times blistering and riotous, at times soulful and exuberant, Life of the Party explores the boundary between what is real and what is imagined in a life saturated with fear. Gatwood asks, How does a girl grow into a woman in a world racked by violence? Where is the line between perpetrator and victim? In precise, searing language, she illustrates how what happens to our bodies can make us who we are. Praise for Life of the Party “Delicately devastating, this book will make us all ‘feel less alone in the dark.’ ”—Miel Bredouw, writer and comedian, Punch Up the Jam “Gatwood writes about the women who were forgotten and the men who got off too easy with an effortlessness and empathy and anger that yanked every emotion on the spectrum out of me. Imagine, we get to live in the age of Olivia Gatwood. Goddamn.”—Jamie Loftus, writer and comedian, Boss Whom Is Girl and The Bechdel Cast “I’ve read every poem in Life of the Party. I’ve read each of them more than once. In some parts of the book the spine is already breaking because I’ve spent so much time poring over it and losing hours in this world Olivia Gatwood has partly created, but partly just invited the reader to enter on their own, caution signs be damned. This book is enlightening, inspiring, igniting, and f***ing scary. I loved every word on every page with a ferocity that frightened me.”—Madeline Brewer, actress, The Handmaid’s Tale, Orange Is the New Black, and Cam

Certainly, life can rock the bottom out of your world but know that life teaches us lessons. We need to take a time-out, recharge, and be true to ourselves. You may also find poems that will give you pause to ponder on all the abundance that we can embrace and to believe that there is something truly spiritual at play and poems that will inspire and embolden you to walk through your life with peace, courage, strength, and trust you are a worthy human being.
