Download or read book Triumph of the Heart written by Megan Feldman Bettencourt and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2016 Books For A Better Life Award winner Drawing on the latest research and remarkable tales of forgiveness from around the world, journalist Megan Feldman explores how forgiveness, when practiced in the right ways, can save lives, make us happier and healthier, and lead to a better world. Veteran journalist Megan Feldman was still smarting over a bitter breakup when she began working on a feature article about a father named Azim who had truly forgiven the man who killed his son. She had found herself totally and completely unable to forgive her ex-boyfriend, and yet Azim had managed to forgive his own son’s murderer. Forgiveness has long been touted by religious leaders as a moral imperative. But Megan wanted to know exactly what it means from a scientific perspective, and why forgiving those who have wronged you is one of the best things you can do for yourself. In Triumph of the Heart, Feldman embarks on a quest to understand this complex idea, drawing on the latest research showing that forgiveness can provide a range of health benefits, from relieving depression to decreasing high blood pressure. The journey takes her from New Zealand and the Maori who practice their own form of restorative justice, to a principal in Baltimore who uses forgiveness techniques to eradicate violence in her school, and to recovered addicts who restarted their lives by seeking and receiving forgiveness. She travels to Rwanda to learn about forgiveness in the face of unthinkable atrocities. This book is a guide for how the practice of forgiveness can help us all in our search for a satisfying, fulfilling, good life.

Download or read book The Governor of Desire written by Elizabeth Seydel Morgan and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1993-11-01 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her second collection of verse Elizabeth Seydel Morgan establishes herself as a poet of fierce honesty and originality. The Governor of Desire examines the world through the lens of our emotions, a perspective from which we see how everything connects—nature, politics, passion, terror, anger, grief. Morgan’s poems are miracles of perception and grace. They shine with the sort of luster that comes only with unrelenting rigor and flawless craftsmanship. Tough yet tender, haunting yet lyrical, they are remarkable fusions—like governed desire—of form and content. The lean, sure syncopation, for instance, of “Do You Remember Where You Were?” deftly juggles recollections of the Beatles’ first hit recording and reflections on the raw violence of our recent history. The elegiac “What Is the Most Elvis Ever Weighed?” introduces a topic we expect to be played as farce but that develops into a heart-breaking evocation of lives adrift, of dreams confounded, of youth and beauty vanished. In “Bear in Mind,” the ingenuity and complexity of Morgan’s comparisons mute our growing sense of unease, and make the sudden shift from metaphor to reality—“when the towering nightmare/ blacks out the stars”—all the more terrifying. Morgan’s startling imagery seems not only natural but inevitable, as in “Define Space,” in which the stark absence of a loved one is personified as a kind of spiritualist of negation: Space is not what is not, nor the object of rockets; it’s the way they get where they’re going. It’s the cold blue absence of you that bristles me into the future. Space is the lively medium— that made-up lady we have trouble believing ,who goes into a trance of not-being, rolls her eyes toward the place where you could have gone and asks us all here to hold hands. Alive with mystery and beauty, these poems illuminate the vicissitudes of our common experience. They are the mark of a writer of rare gifts.

Book excerpt: In the vein of The Glass Castle, Breaking Night is the stunning memoir of a young woman who at age fifteen was living on the streets, and who eventually made it into Harvard. Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age fifteen, Liz found herself on the streets. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. When Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny and go back to high school, often completing her assignments in the hallways and subway stations where she slept. Liz squeezed four years of high school into two, while homeless; won a New York Times scholarship; and made it into the Ivy League. Breaking Night is an unforgettable and beautifully written story of one young woman's indomitable spirit to survive and prevail, against all odds.
