Download or read book Finding Emelyn written by Diane Richards and published by Waterside Productions. This book was released on 2021-05-27 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surprises and inner secrets marked much of my life. Leaving behind a troubled childhood, I put myself through college and graduate school. I persevered to become a teacher, a school administrator, a counselor; to become "somebody." I succeeded in achieving my childhood dream: happy wife, proud mother, and founder of a school for struggling students. But the reality was more fragile than I knew. I was a workaholic, blind to my unhealthy lifestyle and skewed priorities; until the night I forgot my daughter's important concert because I was too busy with other people's children - my students. My feelings of selfishness crushed me; my work obsession clearly was out of control. Finding Emelyn Battersby Hartridge saved me. An impulsive (or guided) decision to go with a friend to a Dr. Weiss workshop on past-life regression sent me on a spiritual journey that would change my life. It led me to startlingly real visions of myself as a young girl immersed in the dancing, dining and drama of a prominent family in a post-Civil War mansion in Savannah, Georgia, more than a hundred years removed from my New Jersey world. When I visited Savannah as a tourist and saw the house in my visions, I began historical research and discovered Emelyn. Her life matched mine in eerie detail, from her family relationships to the school she founded with a mission statement that could have been plagiarized from mine. But were Emelyn's goals influencing my life at the expense of my own purpose? The journey didn't end there. A second surprise was that I have a gift for communicating with those who have died. As I did my first "reading" with an unknown woman as part of a workshop exercise, I told this stranger what I saw and heard from a man desperately needing to contact her. After revealing his messages, the woman shared that I had described her recently deceased husband. His death had left her on the verge of suicide and I knew details of their life that I could not logically have known. As this stranger embraced me, she whispered in my ear: you saved my life. I then knew there was no going back. It would be the first of many such amazing connections from beyond. My journey also required me to confront my own ghosts. I had to understand my father, a cruel, unhappy man who left our family. I had to understand my alcoholic stepfather and my mother who literally dragged me out of their house when I was 15 and sent me away. I had to find a way to forgive before I could own my life. Today, I am living my new passion, working in a spiritual realm that eases the grief of losing a loved one. This book is not intended to convince anyone that past lives or mediums are real. Finding Emelyn helped me find my path. I want to share my story in hopes that others will be inspired to listen to their hearts, heal the past, let go of fear and find their highest purpose, whatever it might be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An imaginative and illuminating study, Finding Is the First Act places historical thinking in creative tension with literary appreciation. The structures of Jesus's parable of the hidden treasure (Matt 13:44) are examined by mapping its plot options (finding, acting, buying) in view of other Jewish treasure stories and the vast array of treasure plots in world folklore. Startling differences emerge in the plot options chosen by Jesus that point to a new understanding of the directive to give up all one has for the Kingdom of God. "Why Jesus' treasure parable? For three reasons that I am aware of. First, . . . the story has always fascinated me. . . . Second, in recent work on parables there has often been a tendency to concentrate especially on the longer parables of Jesus. I wanted deliberately to move in theopposite direction and to give full emphasis to a very short parable . . . . Third, this particular parable, in contrast, for example, to that of The Mustard Seed, does not furnish much grist for the diachronic mill of biblical studies. I was deliberately choosing an item which, in isolation from its Matthean context, could hardly sustain a monograph study along the standard lines of tradition criticism." --from the Preface

Book excerpt: An action-packed, empowering middle grade novel about a girl who has to speak up when her wheelchair motocross dreams get turned upside down. Twelve-year-old Emmie is working to raise money for a tricked-out wheelchair to get serious about WCMX, when a mishap on a poorly designed ramp at school throws her plans into a tailspin. Instead of replacing the ramp, her school provides her with a kind but unwelcome aide—and, seeing a golden media opportunity, launches a public fundraiser for her new wheels. Emmie loves her close-knit rural town, but she can’t shake the feeling that her goals—and her choices—suddenly aren’t hers anymore. With the help of her best friends, Emmie makes a plan to get her dreams off the ground—and show her community what she wants, what she has to give, and how ready she is to do it on her own terms. Air is a smart, energetic middle grade debut from Monica Roe about thinking big, working hard, and taking flight.
Download or read book Margaret Fuller written by Charles Capper and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-08 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filled with dramatic, ironic, and sometimes tragic turns, this superb biography captures the story of one of America's most extraordinary figures, producing at once the best life of Fuller ever written, and one of the great biographies in American history. In Volume II, Charles Capper illuminates Fuller's "public years," focusing on her struggles to establish her identity as an influential intellectual woman in the Romantic Age. He brings to life Fuller's dramatic mixture of inward struggles, intimate social life, and deep engagements with the movements of her time. He describes how Fuller struggled to reconcile high avant-garde cultural ideals and Romantic critical methods with democratic social and political commitments, and how she strove to articulate a cosmopolitan vision for her nation's culture and politics. Capper also offers fresh and often startlingly new treatments of Fuller's friendships with Ralph Waldo Emerson, Thomas Carlyle, and Giuseppe Mazzini, in addition to many others.

Download or read book Computing Myths Class Realities written by David Hakken and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of computing in an economically transforming city in the north of England looks at how new information technologies effect and are affected by a historically vibrant working-class culture. Stressing the complex interplay between technology and culture, especially notions about work and labor, the authors examine how this dynamic is manifest in computer-related jobs, in social relationships, and in the reproduction of local culture. They analyze the structure of computing in Sheffield, placing it in the contexts of national state policy, world political economy, and the regional labor market, and they explore the processes of computing in relation to the reproduction of gendering, the rise of "labor freedom," and local attempts to influence the course of computerization. The experiences of the people in Sheffield and South Yorkshire have much to teach us about what technology does and what we can do to control it. Computing Myths, Class Realities will be of interest not only to anthropologists and sociologists but to all scholars interested in the social correlates of computing.
