Book excerpt: In Hello, It’s Me, pop culture historian Chris Epting celebrates the cultural touchstones of the past 40 years—the music, movies, television, hobbies, and fads that have defined recent generations. Whether it’s shooting hoops with NBA legend Elgin Baylor, drinking whiskey in a Radio City Music Hall broom closet with Ron Wood and Rod Stewart while thousands of fans scream from below, sharing a milkshake with Jerry Lewis, running into Alfred Hitchcock’s stomach as a young child, or jumping on a trampoline with Sally Struthers, Chris Epting takes us on his own strange trip through time, space and hula hoops. Beginning in the 1970s and continuing through the 1980s, 1990s, and up to the present day, Epting writes about the humorous, ironic, poignant, and inspiring moments he’s experienced with a host of pop-culture icons—Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Jay Leno, Johnny Thunders, Edward Albee, John Cheever, Milton Berle, etc.—as well as his personal memories of the era’s most famous pop-culture fads, products, and gimmicks—Pet Rocks, lava lamps, mood rings, 8-track tapes, bootleg records, Zotz, halter tops, strawberry wine. . . .

Book excerpt: As I continue to learn the importance of self love, I now understand that I create my world; little did I know or understand it's just that easy. Love comes from within. It's deep, it's beautiful, it's freedom. A freedom from loneliness, fear, self-doubt, shame and abandonment. I truly understand and now know the truth, that choice is the key to everything; the key to unlock your life, and the key to freedom! We only ever have to choose. That's the greatest thing about free will and choice. I ask you to ask yourself, do you want to be free? Or do you want to be held in the imprisonment of the linear life, and controlled by the ego conditioned mind, continuing the third-dimensional matrix? Or are you ready to break free of all linear aspects?

Book Hello Universe  It s Me

Book excerpt: I had no reason to question the life I was living. I did everything I was supposed to do to live an amazing life - great education, great career, married, mother, home-owner, nice-car owner, fancy vacation taker - or so I thought. I was just rushing to cross things off my to-do list one after another, never stopping to ask myself if all this doing was making me happy. None of my checklists said find joy, be fulfilled, authentically align with my soul. But then through a series of serendipitous circumstances, perfectly orchestrated by the Universe, it all came crashing in on me. I was forced to realize that none of the life I created made me happy. My life was amazing on the outside. But on the inside, I longed for something deeper, meaningful, more. So, I scheduled a breakdown. Hello Universe, It's Me is not just my wakeup call. It's yours too. I take you on my journey but as I do I provide you with the tools you need to see that your story matters, the way you navigate your life matters, and finding who you are meant to be and what you are meant to offer this world matters too.

Book Hello  I Think It s Me

Download or read book Hello I Think It s Me written by Johnny Vandal and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-06-24 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my first collection of short written pieces compiled together to emphasize the honest journey of a struggling soul. The pieces and background to them deal with a time of my life where things started falling apart and where I started questioning everything. Its deeply personal and deals with my experiences related to my mental health, society, friends, lost loved ones, parents, my partner, my daughter, my passions, my flaws and builds up to my complete breakdown and sign off to the world. At the time of writing the final pieces in this book I was completely oblivious that I was sub consciously writing my almost final words of my life. Music has always been my main form of expression and so each of the written pieces has music lyrics linked to them of songs that I think best fits each piece. I truly believe that this work can be of help and inspiration for people who have become stuck in the false freedom of life that has been sold to us...and see that there is hope.

Book Hello  I Know It s Me

Download or read book Hello I Know It s Me written by Johnny Vandal and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-06-23 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This follow up book to “Hello, I think it’s me” deals with my journey from my suicide attempt to finally meeting myself for the first time. The emotional short pieces in this book pieces my personal journey of self-acceptance. This book deals with trusting myself again, forgiveness of myself and others, the reality of my anxiety and the belief of being connected to the universe in my own unique way. I was in the ditch of despair; I have seen the darkness and have faced some of my demons. I am still facing them and I am working and ever growing with myself. The written pieces in this book are raw and honest. I open up myself in the hope that this can help people realise their self-worth and beauty. We are all alive and connected in our own special and exceptional way. As with “Hello, I think it’s me” I have linked each written piece with music lyrics which I feel connects with the theme of the individual written piece. This should give the reader a full emersion experience into my journey to guide them on their own path.

Book I Was  I Am  and Now I Will Be

Download or read book I Was I Am and Now I Will Be written by Ira Kantor and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life of Harry Chapin, charismatic musician and iconic humanitarian, was unexpectedly and tragically taken on July 16, 1981. He was 38 years old. A human dynamo whose sheer tenacity landed him on the Billboard charts, on Broadway, in the White House, and at the forefront of the world hunger movement, Chapin lived by the mantra of "When in doubt, do something." In following this mentality, Chapin's 10-year solo career encompassed more than 2,000 concerts, nine studio albums, the creation of global nonprofit World Hunger Year (now WhyHunger), and the love and respect of fans, fellow musicians, and key political influencers alike. Hailed as a consummate musical storyteller, Chapin is best known for his character-driven tunes - "Taxi," "Sniper," "W-O-L-D," "A Better Place to Be," "30,000 Pounds of Bananas," and "Cat's in the Cradle" included. Yet despite having only four Top 40 hits to his name, Chapin's songs remain one of a kind - elevating him to the same artistic status as classic singer-songwriters of the era like James Taylor, Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot, and John Denver. Now, nearly 40 years after his death, the following 10-chapter oral history seeks to tell Harry Chapin's story through the firsthand, on-the-record testimonies of the "characters" who knew him best - more than 60 family members, friends, business associates, and musical contemporaries. The result is a well-rounded retrospective of a man whose life, being, sense of accomplishment, and legacy remain unsurpassed to this day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of much uncertainty in today's world, getting to know God is something a person will never regret. God is not only all powerful, but he is eternally good; he is not just strong and mighty but is tender as a mother with a babe at her breast. God is not just majestic, but delightful. Prayer enables every individual to experience God personally. Hello, God. It's Me. is a gentle journey into prayer. Since prayer is the mechanism whereby we can maintain a constant, open connection to God, it is vital to develop a daily habit of both talking to God and listening for his voice. The voice of God leads, guides, comforts, instructs, and tenderly convicts his children. There is nothing quite like it in all the world. Much about prayer can be learned from the pages of Scripture as Christine invites the inquirer to investigate and apply. Learning to spend a little set-apart time each day in prayer is both life-giving and life changing and sets the stage for an ongoing dialogue for all one's waking hours. Want to learn to pray? This is your little book. Want to develop a discipline for prayer? This is your little guide. Want to get to know God more? Read, think, write, pray, and grow. Want to give the gift of prayer? Gift this little jewel. Hello, God. It's Me. is simple, but deep; sweet, but profound; down-to-earth, but will connect the reader to the divine.

Perfect for fans of Adi Alsaid, David Arnold, and Arvin Ahmadi. Sixteen-year-old Ellie Dante is desperate for something in her life to finally go right. Her father was a famous stage magician until he attempted an epic illusion on live TV—and failed. Now Ellie lives with her dad in a beat-up RV, attending high school online and performing with him at birthday parties and bars across the Midwest to make ends meet. But when the gigs dry up, their insurance lapses, leaving Dad’s heart condition unchecked and forcing Ellie to battle her bipolar II disorder without medication. Then Ellie receives a call from a famous magic duo, who offer fifteen thousand dollars and a shot at redemption: they want her father to perform the illusion that wrecked his career—on their live TV special, which shoots in Los Angeles in ten days. Ellie knows her dad will refuse—but she takes the deal anyway, then lies to persuade him to head west. With the help of her online-only best friend and an unusual guy she teams up with along the way, Ellie makes a plan to stage his comeback. But when her lie is exposed, she’ll have to confront her illness and her choices head-on to save her father—and herself.
