Book excerpt: From the outside, Vanya’s childhood looked idyllic… WINNER, 2019 Next Generation Indie Books (Memoir: Overcoming Adversity) She rode horses with her father in the solitude of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and attended flamboyant operas with her mother in the city. But life for Vanya and her family turned dark when ghosts from her father’s service on a Pacific destroyer in World War II tore her family apart. Set in postwar California, this is the story of a girl who tried to make sense of her parents’ unpredictable actions—from being left to lie in her own blood-soaked diaper while her Christian Scientist mother prayed, to refusing to get medical help while watching her father writhe on his bed in the detox ward, his hands and feet tethered with leather straps—by immersing herself in the beauty and solitude of the wilderness around her. It was only decades later when memories began to haunt her, that Vanya was able to look back with unflinching honesty and tender compassion for her family and herself. Boot Language shines a light in the darkness so that others can find their way This spellbinding memoir offers encouragement and hope to those who are: in a dysfunctional family, experiencing or navigating emotional abuse, in a relationship with an abused partner or child, or simply looking to find happiness in spite of their past. Erickson’s story shines a light in the darkness so that others can find their way to heal the past. In this elegant, haunting narrative, she invites us to witness it all—from the gripping, often disturbing, truths of her childhood to her ultimate survival. Boot Language uplifts the reader with the knowledge that it is your responses to life’s adverse circumstances that make all the difference; and that by facing your past you can find the inner strength to permanently discover that you can transform your life. While Erickson’s memories would never completely disappear, they no longer held her in their grip. They have importance. They became an integral part of her life, leading her to become a successful teacher, author, and speaker, helping countless women and teens come to terms with their past. Order your copy today and begin reading this disturbing, heartbreaking, and ultimately inspiring memoir.

Download or read book Do We Owe A Debt For Living written by Glenda Smith and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, two people close to me said I should write a book. This profound encouragement was initiated due to my intense life. My supporters believe people could benefit from my experience. On August 2 or early morning on the 3rd, 2017, in my sleep, I received a message to write a book. You see, when I am sleeping, God has my total attention. Although I read my Bible almost daily, praise and talk with God, live a faithful life, when I am awake, I am constantly thinking about goals and how to organize my time. However, I do praise and talk to God throughout the day. On August 3, 2017, I first saw the movie Razor's Edge. One of the characters in the movie got engaged to a woman with substance abuse problems. He loves her deeply and unequivocally. He loves her into sobriety. Their mutual friend got jealous and told the woman she is no good for her fiancé and she will make him miserable. Because of these cruel remarks, prior to her marriage, the woman went back to the life she led as a substance abuser. Her fiancé tries to take her away from this toxic environment again to no avail. The woman commits suicide. The now former fiancé confronts the mutual friend and shares with her that he killed someone years ago and he thought he owed a debt for killing that person. But he owed a debt for living, and his payment would have been living out his life with the woman who abused substances. I have intently pondered this proposition in the context presented in Razor's Edge, and I ask that you contemplate it with me. I am using my life experiences and beliefs to aid my analysis. This is where you, the reader, are asked to play an active role by sharing your thoughts with me.

Download or read book For the Sins of My Father written by Albert DeMeo and published by Crown. This book was released on 2003-09-09 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A suspenseful, emotionally charged real-life Sopranos: The son of New York's most notorious Mafia killer reveals the conflicted life he led being raised by a cold-blooded murderer, who was also a devoted family man, and the wrenching legacy of Mafia family life. Al DeMeo will never forget the day in 1992 when a coworker, a fellow trader at the New York Stock Exchange, taunted him with a copy of the hot new book Murder Machine, chronicling the horrific criminal life of DeMeo's father, Roy, the head of the most deadly gang in organized crime. The moment sent DeMeo into a psychological tailspin: How could he have spent his life looking up to, and loving, a vicious killer? For the Sins of My Father recounts the chilling rise and fall of the man who led the Gambino family's most fearsome killers and thieves, through the eyes of a son who had never known any other kind of life. Coming of age in an opulent Long Island house where money is abundant but its source is unclear, Al becomes Roy's confidant, sent to call in loans at age fourteen and gradually coming to understand his father's job description--loan shark, car thief, porn purveyor and, above all, murderer. But when Al is seventeen, Roy's body is found in the trunk of a car, a gangland slaying that places Al between federal prosecutors seeking his testimony and a mob crew determined to keep him quiet. Desperate to abide by the father-son bond, but equally determined to escape his father's dangerous and doomed life, Al Demeo embarks on a courageous quest for the truth, reconciliation, and honor. With the implacable narrative drive of a thriller and the power of a painfully honest memoir, For the Sins of My Father presents a startling and unprecedented perspective on the underworld of organized crime, exposing for the first time the cruel legacy of a Mafia life.
