Through personal stories and reflections, Bible verses, and enduring expressions of faith, she hopes to convey to grieving parents that what they are feeling is normal and that everyone experiences grief differently.

Download or read book How to Live After 50 written by Noh Jonghan and published by 메타세쿼(METASEQUO). This book was released on 2024-03-17 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 49, 50, 51... How to live the second half of your life with grace as you pass through the years when your days are fewer than the days you’ve lived. Nowadays, so many people are energetic even at 50, and so many say that real life starts at 60, 70, and so on, that it feels like there is still much life left even at 50. But that’s not true at all. Even if they live to the average lifespan, they have only 30 years left. Anyone who has lived to 50 knows how quickly that passes. This book is the story of how the author, who realized this obvious truth at the age of 49, started to live the second half of his life pondering and acting on the question, “What can I do to stop living the way I’ve been living and begin planning and living the way I want to live?” In this book, the author tells, sometimes gently, sometimes fiercely, what he’s learned from creating, reading, and studying more than 300 kinds of books in his 20 years as a publishing planner and editor, the struggles and practices he’s incorporated into his life while going through life’s upheavals around the age of 50, and his resolutions to live this complex lives. This book teaches you how to make the most of your second half of life. First and foremost, you need to train yourself to be a person who is not swayed by emotions but controls emotions. Suppose you are swayed back and forth by various emotions from the environment and people around you. In that case, you will not be able to take control of your life. Therefore, dealing with emotions is dealing with you, dealing with your life. And conversely, dealing with how to live is also dealing with emotions. The book offers four resolutions to becoming a person who controls emotions and lives one’s own life. These are: don’t get upset, don’t get heartbroken, don’t get anxious, and redesign the view of life that will establish the center of life. By practicing these resolutions and making them habits, you can live the second half of your life in control. This book will get you started on that path.

Book excerpt: Jonah Caine, a lone survivor in a zombie-infested world, struggles to understand the apocalypse in which he lives. Unable to find a moral or sane reason for the horror that surrounds him, he is overwhelmed by violence and insignificance. After wandering for months, Jonah's lonely existence dramatically changes when he discovers a group of survivors. Living in a museum-turned-compound, they are led jointly by Jack, an ever-practical and efficient military man, and Milton, a mysterious, quizzical prophet who holds a strange power over the dead. Both leaders share Jonah's anguish over the brutality of their world, as well as his hope for its beauty. Together with others, they build a community that reestablishes an island of order and humanity surrounded by relentless ghouls. But this newfound peace is short-lived, as Jonah and his band of refugees clash with another group of survivors who remind them that the undead are not the only-nor the most grotesque-horrors they must face.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Opera is a fascinating collection of 20 wide-ranging interviews with the preeminent opera professionals working on and behind the stage today. Joshua Jampol invites opera-lovers to listen in as performers such as Renee Fleming, Natalie Dessay, Rolando Villazon and Placido Domingo speak in exceptionally frank terms about their strengths and weaknesses, and address such hard-hitting, enduring topics as how they deal with critics, vocal troubles, and balancing their career and family lives. We hear conductors such as James Conlon, Esa-Pekka Salonen, and Kent Nagano discuss their likes and dislikes about the state of contemporary opera, their own inspirations, and whom they themselves hope to inspire. World-class directors such as Robert Carsen and Patrice Chéreau discuss the complexities involved in staging a successful opera, and how opera can remain relevant today. Jampol has unprecedented access to these major singers, conductors, and directors, and the table of contents reads like a "who's who" of the global opera world. Each interview highlights a distinctive voice, and Jampol brings immense knowledge and a wonderful flair to these conversations. He allows his subjects to follow their thoughts wherever they lead, and reveals in the process a more intimate, reflective side of the emotional and extravagant world of the lyric arts. For anyone wanting to know more about the people behind the performances--what they think, how they feel, and who they really are--Living Opera is full of delights and surprises.
