Book excerpt: Setting out from Greece, Pinney travelled through the countries of the Mediterranean and the Middle East, over the snow-covered mountains of Afghanistan, across the plains of India to the steaming jungles of Assam and Burma. In between times, when he was not actually on the move, he took part briefly in the Greek civil war, worked as a rouseabout in a baked bean bar on the waterfront at Beirut, coloured photographs...in Teheran, and peddled orchids in Delhi. He travelled sometimes alone, sometimes with a Dutchman named Marchand, a "peerless companion" whose instinct for wandering was as strong as his own. Nearly always penniless, they scrounged lifts by every available means of transport; and when there was no transport they walked. They were often in trouble with the authorities, especially in those countries for which they had no proper visas; and they were often in pursuit of, or pursued by, girls whose charms were as various as their nationalities. In an endless succession of adventures and misadventures they were saved by their quick wittedness and ingenuity. Once in Burma, they fell in with a tribe of headhunters. How they escaped from that predicament is only one of the many exciting episodes that make up this book.

Zulaikha knows all will be provided for her--"Inshallah," God willing. Then she meets Meena, who offers to teach her the Afghan poetry she taught her late mother.

Download or read book I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust written by Valerie Gilpeer and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable memoir by a mother and her autistic daughter who’d long been unable to communicate—until a miraculous breakthrough revealed a young woman with a rich and creative interior life, a poet, who’d been trapped inside for more than two decades. “I have been buried under years of dust and now I have so much to say.” These were the first words twenty-five-year-old Emily Grodin ever wrote. Born with nonverbal autism, Emily’s only means of communicating for a quarter of a century had been only one-word responses or physical gestures. That Emily was intelligent had never been in question—from an early age she’d shown clear signs that she understood what was going on though she could not express herself. Her parents, Valerie and Tom, sought every therapy possible in the hope that Emily would one day be able to reveal herself. When this miraculous breakthrough occurred, Emily was finally able to give insight into the life, frustrations, and joys of a person with autism. She could tell her parents what her younger years had been like and reveal all the emotions and intelligence residing within her; she became their guide into the autistic experience. Told by Valerie, with insights and stories and poetry from Emily, I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust highlights key moments of Emily’s childhood that led to her communication awakening—and how her ability rapidly accelerated after she wrote that first sentence. As Valerie tells her family’s story, she shares the knowledge she’s gained from working as a legal advocate for families affected by autism and other neurological disorders. A story of unconditional love, faith in the face of difficulty, and the grace of perseverance and acceptance, I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust is an evocative and affecting mother-daughter memoir of learning to see each other for who they are.

Book excerpt: A Voice for My Soul is a book of inspirational poems and prayers that speaks from the authors soul. The poems and prayers are reflections on Gods grace and faithfulness to his children during all the circumstances in a persons life. Some of the poems declare the glory of God in creation and in the beauty of Jesus and the comfort of the Holy Spirit. God is always present with his people when they face trials and suffering, and he draws especially near to them as they journey through death and dying. Regardless of the circumstances of life, God is always present and close to his children. Man desires to have a real relationship with God and with other people, and God will fulfill his promises and bless all people who truly seek to know Him and to obey him. One of the greatest of these blessings is knowing that there is always hope in this life and in the life to come when a person seeks to love God and submit to his will.
