Book excerpt: Developing Trust Life, as I choose to call the omnipotent power within, loves you more than you love yourself. Frankly, this is one of the most valuable perceptions that you can envision your life through. You see, Life undeniably has your back, but did anyone ever assure you of that or actually teach you the significance of this empowering statement? I’m always telling my friends and clients that, “Life loves you and talks to you and guides you at all times, but you just don’t pay attention.” It was the old adage, ”Live and Learn” that led me to question the experiences in my own life and search for a better understanding of the human condition. The introduction to this text will open an autobiographical window into my own journey providing a glimpse into some of my ”live and learn” moments. The body of this publication is a comprehensive study, over four decades, of the nature of mankind and its reality. The Epilogue will give you insight into my surviving the unthinkable and why appreciation, sharing and service are my heart’s commission to a life of fulfillment. We are all experiential beings through the sentiment of our emotions. Our true mission and purpose for this life experience is to develop a trust and cultivate that trust in knowing who we are and why we are here on this planet. Though it is mostly obscured from our emotional understanding, our challenges play as important a role as our successes in deepening that trust, thus...It’s All Good!

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In the propulsive debut novel from the host of the #1 true crime podcast Crime Junkie, a journalist uncovers her hometown’s dark secrets when she becomes obsessed with the unsolved murder of her childhood neighbor—and the disappearance of another girl twenty years later. ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: PopSugar You can’t ever know for sure what happens behind closed doors. Everyone from Wakarusa, Indiana, remembers the infamous case of January Jacobs, who was discovered in a ditch hours after her family awoke to find her gone. Margot Davies was six at the time, the same age as January—and they were next-door neighbors. In the twenty years since, Margot has grown up, moved away, and become a big-city journalist. But she’s always been haunted by the feeling that it could’ve been her. And the worst part is, January’s killer has never been brought to justice. When Margot returns home to help care for her uncle after he is diagnosed with early-onset dementia, she feels like she’s walked into a time capsule. Wakarusa is exactly how she remembers—genial, stifled, secretive. Then news breaks about five-year-old Natalie Clark from the next town over, who’s gone missing under circumstances eerily similar to January’s. With all the old feelings rushing back, Margot vows to find Natalie and to solve January’s murder once and for all. But the police, Natalie’s family, the townspeople—they all seem to be hiding something. And the deeper Margot digs into Natalie’s disappearance, the more resistance she encounters, and the colder January’s case feels. Could January’s killer still be out there? Is it the same person who took Natalie? And what will it cost to finally discover what truly happened that night twenty years ago? Twisty, chilling, and intense, All Good People Here is a searing tale that asks: What are your neighbors capable of when they think no one is watching?

Long Book Description MICHAEL BERRYMAN was born into a family unlike most, with a neurosurgeon father and a nurse mother. Growing up, he had to deal with physical ailments that were rare, making it hard to fit in with his peers. They brought him up with a strong Catholic faith, and instilled in him the importance of remaining positive and optimistic in the face of adversity. Still, Michael felt a sense of loneliness and isolation in his life. He was unable to make friends and felt like an outcast whenever he was around his peers. But little did he know, his unusual physical features would one day become his ticket to fame. But then, something amazing happened. By chance encounter, Michael was noticed by legendary director George Pal who needed someone to play a role in the movie "DOC SAVAGE".

Michael’s struggles and success offer an inspiring story of grit and determination. Of how someone with a unique physical condition could rise to the very top, proving that anything is possible with firm belief and hard work.

Download or read book It s All Good written by Julia Watson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ?It's All Good? is written as the result of a mother's journey through her daughter's unexpected death from cancer. Unlike most books on this topic, it deals with the day to day struggles caused from grief and heartache. The book touches on Julia's early life in a small town in Kentucky, her two daughters, remarriage and the challenges of her husbands own health issues. It's raw and honest. It's about those days when you think if you have to attend another birthday, wedding or holiday event, you will go absolutely crazy. Those days when you question God and why you?re still alive and your child isn?t. Those days when you feel so distant and far away from your family and friends. Those long, cold days of darkness and despair. And, yet, how can going in to a dusty, cluttered home office change your life? How can picking up a small, never read book bring you to your knees? How can three simple words, ?it's all good?, over power and erase every day of hopelessness? Totally unprepared and unexpected, it did.
