Download or read book Against the Tides written by Theresa Holman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These short stories are true. They are part of a vision to encourage others and oneself by remembering things that happened along life's journey and sharing them through a hindsight lens, a lens that has been illuminated by acknowledging God's grace and divine providence. The most amazing thing about this book is the great influence of two righteous people, Ralph and Lela Franklin, on the lives of each of the individuals who wrote a story in our book. Their honorable lives have had a multi-generational as well as a spiritual impact on our family. Moreover, Lela's accomplishments in education and her love for writing have been a continual blessing on our entire family. God's hand of love moved through our parents in a magnificent way, paving a clear path for later generations to emulate. A widow with six girls to raise leaves Tennessee for a new start up north in Detroit, Michigan. There, her fourth child meets and marries a man who becomes a Baptist minister. The stories in this book are written by their offspring and descendants. The stories convey the strength of the family matriarchs, the death of a wonderful father, and the turbulent times in Detroit in 1967 and 1968. The stories disclose the secret hopes and dreams of a woman who wants to get married and have children. The suspense is palpable as one story reveals the outcome of a bridge crossing and another story relays the results of what started as an everyday drive in an old car. The stories recount the attainment of educational scholarships and job opportunities and lay bare the universal truism that bad things can happen to anybody, young or old. The book details how ordinary days and routine activities can become tests of will that later turn into testimonies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this intriguing memoir, British born Rosemary Sabet moves back and forth between her past as a child growing up in post war London and her present involvement in the Egyptian revolution. The events in Tahrir Square, Cairo, trigger her memory as she questions what quirks of fate brought her to participate in such an unprecedented, momentous uprising. As we follow the twists and turns and churning uncertainty of Egypts revolution from its outset on January 25th 2011 until the ambivalent celebration one year later the author, fuelled by passion, recounts her personal involvement in the uprising, in which she experienced periods of great fear and disappointment intermingled with moments of courage and triumph. In a series of anecdotes, the reader is taken on a nostalgic journey of the authors carefree childhood, to her unconventional experiences abroad as a young girl in the fifties. With raw and honest insight, Sabet remembers Londons swinging sixties and reveals some of her wickedly funny amorous escapades. We follow her to Rome during the era of the dolce vita where she eventually meets and marries her Egyptian husband. They move to Southern Yemen where she begins to encounter the cultural challenges so imbued in the Middle East, and from where she is propelled to nearly four decades of Egypts turbulent history.

Ways which may include the death of a loved one, an illness, disappointments, betrayal, or parental abandonment. GOD has allowed us to endure many trials, situations and tribulations. When planting a tree you have to consider the soil. Not all trees can grow or thrive in the same dirt. Certain soils produce different fruit. Therefore, the various types of trials we go through yield different results as well. Turning Trials into Triumphs is an anthology of events that could have left the contributors bitter, but instead their circumstances evolved for the better. The ladies of VLR believe that the attitude we display through trials , will determine whether an individual will emerge victorious. Out of our greatest trials, comes the defining moments of life that lay the foundation for building the strength of our character.

Download or read book Flowing Tides written by Gear?id ? hAllmhur?in and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its isolation on the western edge of Europe, Ireland occupies vast amounts of space on the music maps of the world. Although deeply rooted in time and place, Irish songs, dances and instrumental traditions have a history of global travel that span the centuries. Whether carried by exiles, or distributed by commercial networks, Irish traditional music is one of the most popular World Music genres, while Clare, on Ireland's Atlantic seaboard, enjoys unrivaled status as a "Home of the Music," a mecca for tourists and aficionados eager to enjoy the authentic sounds of Ireland. For the first time, this remarkable soundscape is explored by an insider-a fourth generation Clare concertina player, uilleann piper and an internationally recognized authority on Irish traditional music. Entrusted with the testimonies, tune lore, and historic field recordings of Clare performers, Gear?id ? hAllmhur?in reveals why this ancient place is a site of musical pilgrimage and how it absorbed the impact of global cultural flows for centuries. These flows brought musical change inwards, while simultaneously facilitating outflows of musical change to the world beyond - in more recent times, through the music of Clare stars like Martin Hayes and the Kilfenora C?il? Band. Placing the testimony of music and music makers at the center of Irish cultural history and working from a palette of disciplines, Flowing Tides explores an Irish soundscape undergoing radical change in the period from the Napoleonic Wars to the Great Famine, from the birth of the nation state to the meteoric rise-and fall-of the Celtic Tiger. It is essential reading for all interested in Irish/Celtic music and culture.
