Download or read book Travel Light Move Fast written by Alexandra Fuller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From bestselling author Alexandra Fuller, the utterly original story of her father, Tim Fuller, and a deeply felt tribute to a life well lived Six months before he died in Budapest, Tim Fuller turned to his daughter: “Let me tell you the secret to life right now, in case I suddenly give up the ghost." Then he lit his pipe and stroked his dog Harry’s head. Harry put his paw on Dad’s lap and they sat there, the two of them, one man and his dog, keepers to the secret of life. “Well?” she said. “Nothing comes to mind, quite honestly, Bobo,” he said, with some surprise. “Now that I think about it, maybe there isn’t a secret to life. It’s just what it is, right under your nose. What do you think, Harry?” Harry gave Dad a look of utter agreement. He was a very superior dog. “Well, there you have it,” Dad said. After her father’s sudden death, Alexandra Fuller realizes that if she is going to weather his loss, she will need to become the parts of him she misses most. So begins Travel Light, Move Fast, the unforgettable story of Tim Fuller, a self-exiled black sheep who moved to Africa to fight in the Rhodesian Bush War before settling as a banana farmer in Zambia. A man who preferred chaos to predictability, to revel in promise rather than wallow in regret, and who was more afraid of becoming bored than of getting lost, he taught his daughters to live as if everything needed to happen all together, all at once—or not at all. Now, in the wake of his death, Fuller internalizes his lessons with clear eyes and celebrates a man who swallowed life whole. A master of time and memory, Fuller moves seamlessly between the days and months following her father’s death, as she and her mother return to his farm with his ashes and contend with his overwhelming absence, and her childhood spent running after him in southern and central Africa. Writing with reverent irreverence of the rollicking grand misadventures of her mother and father, bursting with pandemonium and tragedy, Fuller takes their insatiable appetite for life to heart. Here, in Fuller’s Africa, is a story of joy, resilience, and vitality, from one of our finest writers.

Download or read book Harry Berry written by Barbara R. Wright and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2002-12-18 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is based on the fact that the Bible is the Word of God, without error or contradiction, and acceptance of the fact that the historical progression of the seven letters to the Churches, and the seven parables on the Kingdom of Heaven are related to the seven periods of the Church Age. Each Age reflects the historical social, political, moral, and religious conditions of that period. Topics discussed in this work includes: the Tribulation Period, the abomination that causes desolation, the number 666 as a human social system, the Battle of Armageddon, the two Witnesses, and the "place" prepared for the two women in Revelation chapter twelve. The Battle of Armageddon enabled the Jewish people to return to Palestine and bring an end to the desolation period. A turning point in the study came when it was discovered that the end of the desolation period; the end of Daniel's 1,290 years; and the end of the protection of the two "women" in the "place" God prepared for them, all occurred in the year AD 1970. The year 1970 marks the beginning of "The Time of the End." It is interesting to note that the revealing of "the man of sin" resulted in social upheavals of the past thirty years; the rise in terrorism; global warming; and the melting of ice caps around the world. Scientists and others have documented events related to "The Time of the End" which will culminate with a great catastrophe when the seventh trumpet is blown on the "great and terrible Day of the wrath of God." Several passages in the Bible describe the eruption of volcanoes. It's time to wake up because our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. In order to understand what global warming it all about we need to consider the biblical account of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19:15-29. Because of gross homosexual behavior, God sent two angels to get Lot and his family out of the city. One thing to consider is that the timing of the destruction of the cities, was under the control of the angels. The cities were destroyed by fire and brimstone (sulfur) coming down from the sky. But Abraham saw smoke coming up from the countryside "as the smoke of a furnace." Evidently Abraham's attention was attracted by a loud noise and an earthquake. The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah was caused by the eruption of a volcano which left a large caldera filled with salt and the Dead Sea. In Luke 17:29-30 Jesus warned that when he returns the same thing will take place. This time it will involve not just a city but the whole earth. The timing of this future catastrophic event is controlled just as the timing of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah was controlled by the angels. (Matthew 24:36) Lot was warned by the angels to get out of the city. Today in the 21st century we are being warned by global warming and its consequences: melting of polar ice caps, melting of snow caps, rising sea levels, etc. IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP!
