He was my husband of five years, whom I loved very much. One day he decided to take his own life. I lost him to his love affair with drugs. I could not compete. What do you do when someone you love is consumed, and ultimately destroyed, right before your eyes? In your arms? And you are powerless to stop it? What do you do? Ride with me on this adventure, which was deeply tragic, yes, but often humorous, somewhat magical, and hopefully, inspirational. Experience the joys and love, denial and despair, betrayal and heartbreak, and ultimately, the decision to rise above my pain, and to soar. You see, I discovered something along the way. That what I do with my life, if I realize it or not, is my choice. I had to choose if I was going to die myself, just survive, or truly live. I was so blessed to have known him at all, to be loved by him. He showed me the value of life. I choose to not throw such a beautiful gift out the window, just because he had to leave. I choose to LIVE. I choose to honor the sweet soul of my husband. I choose to honor the Spirit of God within me, and TRULY LIVE. This is my story. It could be yours, too. As a widow who lost the Love of her Life, as a mother of a son who has done drugs, this story is: HEART WRENCHING, SOUL SEARCHING, INSPIRATIONAL A CANNOT-PUT-DOWN BOOK. Thank you, Carolyn Elise, my friend, for telling your story. I love you! Diane Kotula AN INCREDIBLE STORY OF LOVE, LOSS, AND COURAGE TO MOVE FORWARD. ONE WOMANS JOURNEY INTO AN ENLIGHTENED LIFE.

Download or read book How Architecture Learned to Speculate written by Mona Mahall and published by igmade.edition. This book was released on 2009 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, the speculative in architecture becomes a topic of critical research. It is investigated not as idealistic but as strategic acting within endless modernity. This modernity implies that speculation, as strategic acting, is not only applied to economic but also to political and aesthetic values. Values become mobile, valuations become a play with highs and lows, authors (architects) become winners or losers, and culture becomes fashion. Includes projects by NL Architects, MVRDV, Aristide Antonas, FAT, Ralf Schreiber, Pascual Sisto, Ant Farm, Caspar Stracke, OMA, JODI, Kevin Bauman and others. [From publisher's website].

Download or read book Okoboji and the Iowa Great Lakes written by Jonathan M. Reed and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generation after generation, families of vacationers have returned to northwestern Iowa's Okoboji and the Iowa Great Lakes for summertime rest and recreation. From the earliest pioneer days to the Spirit Lake Massacre to the first rustic outdoorsmen's accommodations, this deep glacial lake and its sister prairie lakes have been embraced by visitors for more than 150 years. Slow growing until rail service in 1882, the area saw investment in the form of the Orleans, the grandest hotel west of the Mississippi, which was demolished a scant 15 years later. By then, though, word had gotten out, and Lake Okoboji's wooded bluffs and sandy beaches became places of quiet repose for vacationers. Resorts of all sizes drew the wealthy and modest alike. Among the area's attractions were Arnolds Park Amusement Park; the Roof Garden; the Casino, Central, and Inn ballrooms; thrilling boat rides; skating; and summertime "bathing" in the revitalizing waters. Now largely given over to private residences of all sizes, the many marinas and public areas still draw summertime visitors intent on forging their own indelible memories.

Download or read book The Coaster written by Erich Wurster and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Patterson considers himself an Everyman—albeit an Everyman with a rich, beautiful wife, two good kids, and a mail-it-in job that ignores his law degree. Despite his good fortune, Bob is idling through life, bored at work and at home. In short, he is the proverbial Coaster. Bob's wife, Sarah, is the anointed heir to the empire built by her father, Sam—a kind of Kansas City, Missouri, Warren Buffet. Fine by Bob, the family soccer mom. But early one morning he and Sarah awake to terrible news. Sam's death reveals he appointed Bob to be the trustee of his personal fortune and, as the IRS currently has it, he'll be in charge of his mother-in-law's money. Even more terrifying, Bob realizes he faces the prospect of actually working all day, for stakes that matter. Is the reappearance of Bob's wildest fraternity brother from college and a proposal from a bland businessman with a plan that seems too good to be true mere coincidence? A businessman who refuses to take No for an answer. After a lifetime of choosing the path of least resistance, will Bob finally take a stand when his family needs him most? If so, where? Bob peppers his story with sports and pop culture references and wry commentary on everything from the sex lives of married couples (such as they are) to the enormous cost of being "honored" at a charitable event. Bob knows what the hero should do in the situations he encounters (he's read the books and seen the movies, too). He doesn't have "a very particular set of skills" or a secret past in the Special Forces. He's just a regular guy who handles extreme pressure and threats to his family about like you'd expect (not well). It's going to take all he's got (really, more than he's got) to raise his game. Fortunately he's got an ace-in-the-hole...at home. Darkly comic, The Coaster turns the conventions of the mystery/suspense genre upside down.
