Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does loving deliberately mean to you? It may take a lot of thinking, soul-searching, and introspection to develop your own answer to this question—and even then, it could be difficult to spell out your thoughts into words. Loving Deliberately is a collection of what scores of individuals—some famous some not—have written on the subject. The responses vary widely but each has an importance all of its own. First in Traveling Deliberately, then in Aging Deliberately, and now in Loving Deliberately, Steve Bannow has completed his task of helping us truly understand the importance of being thoughtful, in the moment, and living life well—deliberately. Loving deliberately must be discovered over time and in stages. Getting there requires a true desire to do so. It requires experience, learning, and growth. Steve’s wish is that all who read this book will come away with a greater sense of who they are, what is most important to them, and why.

Book excerpt: In a world where it is often expected that our later years of life will be a slow march toward inactivity and decreasing vitality, it can be challenging to make a conscious effort to age deliberately. Thankfully, it is possible to embrace the aging process and bring about changes that instigate joy, fulfillment, and fun as we gain years, wisdom, and experience. Steve Bannow and Tom Schneider, MD, draw upon their professional and personal experiences to share practical advice and illuminating insight that helps the aging population deal intelligently and holistically with virtually every important aspect of life and the aging process. Their guidebook not only includes their philosophies on aging, but also covers a wide range of topics that include innovative recommendations on how to: maintain a positive and healthy attitude; navigate through medical and dietary components of the aging process; remain productive after retirement; plan for the future; develop a sense of spirituality; and become comfortable with end-of-life decisions and challenges. Aging Deliberately shares new and exhilarating ways to stay mentally engaged, physically active, and happy as ever, no matter how many years we add to our lives.
Download or read book Deliberate Motherhood written by The Power of Moms and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outstanding authors of Deliberate Motherhood have let the trials and hardships of motherhood mold them into better people. Whether the change includes learning patience when the two-year-old “paints” your walls with the black permanent marker, or forgiving a teenager who screams “I hate you,” or loving more when that naughty child doesn’t really deserve it, it’s a change that refines us—or as the dictionary describes it, “removes impurities, makes something more effective or become more elegant.” That is powerful! You may think that everything has been said about motherhood, but the delightful thing about Deliberate Motherhood is that every mother/author is one-of-a-kind. They each come from different backgrounds, have different parents, are married (or not) to different people, and certainly have “different” children. Each of the 12 “Powers” provided in this book is a crucial component to help you in your motherhood. And the best part is that you don’t need to do it all at once. You can focus on one “power” a month, and over the course of a year, you’ll see great changes in yourself and in your family. The mark of a great book is that it makes you think . . . and it helps you change . . . which in the case of this book, is an absolute guarantee!

Book excerpt: LOVE ON PURPOSE visits the most common relationship issues and how to work through them in love; from managing unrealistic expectations to improving communication. Coleman shares honest reflections on growth, past mistakes and important lessons in love through her journey of becoming a Christian. Her accounts of learning about God's love caused a transformation in her relationships with friends, family and her significant other. In the book she also challenges readers to do their own self-assessment through "Heart Checks" at the end of each chapter. Starting with a conversation she had with her now husband, the book begins with her realization that love is indeed a choice. Coleman says, "So many of us are searching for the fairytale not knowing what it really means to be in the trenches of love. I'll never forget talking to my husband when we were dating and hearing him say 'Love is a choice.' It was contrary to everything I thought I knew about love. For so long it was all about how love made you feel and not about the important decisions we make every day to believe the best, to be kind and to compromise. Love is a verb, we have to act on it to truly see it manifest "

Download or read book How to Fall in Love with Anyone written by Mandy Len Catron and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully written and well-researched cultural criticism as well as an honest memoir” (Los Angeles Review of Books) from the author of the popular New York Times essay, “To Fall in Love with Anyone, Do This,” explores the romantic myths we create and explains how they limit our ability to achieve and sustain intimacy. What really makes love last? Does love ever work the way we say it does in movies and books and Facebook posts? Or does obsessing over those love stories hurt our real-life relationships? When her parents divorced after a twenty-eight year marriage and her own ten-year relationship ended, those were the questions that Mandy Len Catron wanted to answer. In a series of candid, vulnerable, and wise essays that takes a closer look at what it means to love someone, be loved, and how we present our love to the world, “Catron melds science and emotion beautifully into a thoughtful and thought-provoking meditation” (Bookpage). She delves back to 1944, when her grandparents met in a coal mining town in Appalachia, to her own dating life as a professor in Vancouver. She uses biologists’ research into dopamine triggers to ask whether the need to love is an innate human drive. She uses literary theory to show why we prefer certain kinds of love stories. She urges us to question the unwritten scripts we follow in relationships and looks into where those scripts come from. And she tells the story of how she decided to test an experiment that she’d read about—where the goal was to create intimacy between strangers using a list of thirty-six questions—and ended up in the surreal situation of having millions of people following her brand-new relationship. “Perfect fodder for the romantic and the cynic in all of us” (Booklist), How to Fall in Love with Anyone flips the script on love. “Clear-eyed and full of heart, it is mandatory reading for anyone coping with—or curious about—the challenges of contemporary courtship” (The Toronto Star).

And nothing is more important than that you feel good. You are here on the Leading Edge of thought to experience the joy of riding the wave of expansion that is the promise of this everlasting life.” – Abraham

Download or read book Such Deliberate Disguises The Art of Philip Larkin written by Richard Palmer and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2008-05-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Such Deliberate Disguises: The Art of Philip Larkin argues that a true understanding of Philip Larkin as man and poet lies beyond his enduring public appeal and the variety of criticism that has recently been applied to his work. Richard Palmer suggests that the ostensible simplicity of Larkin's writing, which continues to attract so many readers to him, is deceptive, masking as it does one of the richest and most resonant of oeuvres in twentieth-century poetry. Penetrating the many masks of Larkin, the book sheds new and considerable light on the hitherto largely ignored spiritual significance of his work. Based upon close and scrupulous reading of the poems themselves, it draws upon insights gained from the history of art and the study of religion and myth as much as literary criticism and personal biography. It also brings long-overdue attention to what is seen to be perhaps the chief love, and operative aesthetic force, of Larkin's life: jazz. Such Deliberate Disguises is thus a major contribution, not just to Larkin studies, but to the wider cultural history of our times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about a womans life who has experienced most everything but death and child birth. She survived an abusive marriage, several abusive relationships, mental abuse as a child in her home, and being mentally and physically worn down by show business, which constantly challenged her self-esteem. It will tell you how she overcame disaster (several severe car accidents, being mugged on the street, and a 1976 sailboat trip through the middle of the Bermuda Triangle), what she learned from her experiences, and how she has put into practice the knowledge gained from those lessons; the biggest of which is having a sense of humor through it all. She has studied human behavior and abusive situations, and hopes that this book will allow her to help young girls deal with the misogyny of women that is ever-present in the world today. There is also the intrinsic value of entertainment contained in these pages of her triumphs and tribulations. Have a look into the world of a woman whose uncanny fortune is displayed in every corner of her life.
