Download or read book A Breeze of Inspiration Collection of Various Poems written by Viktoriia Peterson and published by Writers Republic LLC. This book was released on 2021-08-27 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These poems were written by Viktoriia Peterson over a period of more than 15 years. The author writes in Russian and Ukrainian, then translates her work into English. This book, A Breeze of Inspiration, is divided into five sections. The first consists of poems written on the subject of love. Many of these are dedicated to Viktoriia's husband, Austin Peterson, and reflect upon their courtship. The second section is about Viktoriia's father, Anatoly, who died in 2016. The poems reflect Viktoriia's memories of time with her father as well as nature and the love of fishing they shared. The work expresses deep emotion. For Viktoriia, the loss of her father was devastating, and it remains so to this day. Sometimes, suffering and longing for relatives who have departed for another world causes an emotional eruption that is hard to stop. Viktoriia expresses this on paper in the form of poetry. Anatoly will always live in Viktoriia's memory. Of the vast body of work she has produced on the subject of her father, 11 poems are published here. The third section is about the weather, the seasons of the year, and Wyoming and nature. These are perhaps Viktoriia's favorite topics to write about. She has written more poems in this genre than any other. The poems in the fourth section address the concept of God. Viktoriia believes deeply in God, and sometimes has prophetic dreams that later come true. One of these miraculous dreams, about God and the Archangel Michael, has been crafted into a poem. The fifth section involves a variety of topics: animals, Viktoriia's grandmother, her mother, and her friends

Download or read book The Dead and the Bizarre are Here and All Around Us written by David A. Landry and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-05 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Chapter 3 of The Dead and the Bizarre are here and all around us, you will question yourself, Is this author real? The things he writes about in his stories seem so far-fetched that he's got be making them up. Well, I hate to burst your bubble-everything is accurate. When I wrote them, it flowed as if I was back in the day when it happened. I have often watched horror flicks, and when certain things happen in the movies, I say to myself, "No way." Then memories hit home, and I realize that, yes, they do happen. You may ask, "Why does this guy seems to have things happen to him than most others?" As I said before, it just has, and I have no reason to explain them. I do know one thing for sure: if you know that there's a spirit around you, there's a great chance they will play with your mind. Growing up since Mr. Black had, I guess made me sensitive to the other side. Believe what you want, but enjoy my books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Chicago Tribune Book of 2019, Notable Chicago Reads A Booklist Top 10 Arts Book of 2019 A No Depression Top Music Book of 2019 Curtis Mayfield. The Chi-Lites. Chaka Khan. Chicago’s place in the history of soul music is rock solid. But for Chicagoans, soul music in its heyday from the 1960s to the 1980s was more than just a series of hits: it was a marker and a source of black empowerment. In Move On Up, Aaron Cohen tells the remarkable story of the explosion of soul music in Chicago. Together, soul music and black-owned businesses thrived. Record producers and song-writers broadcast optimism for black America’s future through their sophisticated, jazz-inspired productions for the Dells and many others. Curtis Mayfield boldly sang of uplift with unmistakable grooves like “We’re a Winner” and “I Plan to Stay a Believer.” Musicians like Phil Cohran and the Pharaohs used their music to voice Afrocentric philosophies that challenged racism and segregation, while Maurice White of Earth, Wind, and Fire and Chaka Khan created music that inspired black consciousness. Soul music also accompanied the rise of African American advertisers and the campaign of Chicago’s first black mayor, Harold Washington, in 1983. This empowerment was set in stark relief by the social unrest roiling in Chicago and across the nation: as Chicago’s homegrown record labels produced rising stars singing songs of progress and freedom, Chicago’s black middle class faced limited economic opportunities and deep-seated segregation, all against a backdrop of nationwide deindustrialization. Drawing on more than one hundred interviews and a music critic’s passion for the unmistakable Chicago soul sound, Cohen shows us how soul music became the voice of inspiration and change for a city in turmoil.

Book excerpt: For the Record, reveals the unimaginable betrayal I experienced, during a very vulnerable period in my life. These acts of betrayal were executed by people, who were once the closest people to me. I am sharing my deeply personal story, based on facts, as best I can recall them. Above all, I am reclaiming my right, to preserve my own legacy, identity, and the true essence of the woman I am, For the Record. I sincerely believe I was in spiritual warfare, during this deeply dark period in my life. It was only God's grace that brought me to victory. God guided me through grace and mercy, to live a life I deserve and to walk the path I started on. He showed me and everyone watching, that no man or woman, has the power to dictate anything over a responsible grown adult's life, no matter who they are. This book represents my truth, and I am now freely stating it. I pray that someday, God will rebuild these very important relationships, especially with my mom. I honored her and everyone knew it and my prayer is that she did too. I pray for restoration of our relationship, redefined. May God breathe life into it and bless it to be healthy, fruitful, and true. When God blesses me with these desires of my heart, and I trust that he will, I will have achieved my goal to turn my pain into purpose. Amen. Many are the plans in a man's heart but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails. Proverbs 19:21 "This said the Lord, the God of Israel," write down all the words which I have spoken to you, in a book." Jeremiah 30:2

Book excerpt: When the Butterfly Met the Ladybug is a short story about an unlikely friendship between a butterfly and a ladybug. As the characters in this story develop, their unique friendship is envied by the other bugs in the gardens but does not hinder the two from the instant and wonderful bond that they form. In this book, Ms. Butterfly shares stories with the little ladybug, and the ladybug learns new things. As this story unfolds, the seasons change and the time between the two characters grows shorter. The ladybug learns quickly to accept the memories with the butterfly as lessons. The colors used are symbolic of the change in the season and mood represented with playful colors for the spring and summer, shifting into calm and cooling colors for the season's end. As the author and illustrator of Manage Your Emotions Before They Manage You, I decided with this project to share a little more of myself in the tale of change, relationships, love, and loss. This concept was inspired by the relationship between two loving spirits, my daughter and my grandmother. In hopes that this piece will help families grapple with uncomfortable conversations regarding life cycles. Leaving an open ending where we as adults are able to fill in the blanks for our little ones as we see fit.

Download or read book Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa written by Hans Reihling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa explores how different masculinities modulate substance use, interpersonal violence, suicidality, and AIDS as well as recovery cross-culturally. With a focus on three male protagonists living in very distinct urban areas of Cape Town, this comparative ethnography shows that men's struggles to become invulnerable increase vulnerability. Through an analysis of masculinities as social assemblages, the study shows how affective health problems are tied to modern individualism rather than African 'tradition' that has become a clichâe in Eurocentric gender studies. Affective health is conceptualized as a balancing act between autonomy and connectivity that after colonialism and apartheid has become compromised through the imperative of self-reliance. This book provides a rare perspective on young men's vulnerability in everyday life that may affect the reader and spark discussion about how masculinities in relationships shape physical and psychological health. Moreover, it shows how men change in the face of distress in ways that may look different than global health and gender transformative approaches envision. Thick descriptions of actual events over the life course make the study accessible to both graduate and undergraduate students in the social sciences. Contributing to current debates on mental health and masculinity, the volume will be of interest to scholars from a number of disciplines including anthropology, gender studies, African studies, psychology and global health"--
