Download or read book More Musings and Poetry written by Victor Nippert and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vic Nippert brings us more of his ramblings through life, from experiences he’s had raising dogs to feeding crows, and from dealing with dust bunnies’ rejection to butterflies in flight and migration. And much more including Valentine covered underwear! More Musings and Poetry is a continuation of the book Musings written by Vic Nippert and published by Covenant Books. A collection of articles written for his church’s newsletter. More Musings and Poetry includes some of the poems he has written that were begun as a result of rough times in his later years, some of the things we will all face or have already done so no matter what our ages. Many of the articles were inspired by his own view of the energy and panoramic surroundings of his Hudson Valley home. An expanse with important historic legends and stories from Rip Van Winkle, The Revolutionary War, the first steamboat, mansions of millionaires along the Hudson River to contemporary changes in towns and cities undergoing organic trans-formations on the banks up the Hudson River. But the people and their viewpoints and behavior change slower than the building construction and store fronts around them and it’s the people that Vic observes that he writes about and the meaning of their lives. And his life too. The famous writer J.R.R. Tolkien wrote in The Fellowship of the Ring a much-used quote, “Not all who wander are lost.” And this is the goal of many of Vic’s writings and musings. Each one of us has an observation about our goals in life and how we may or may not succeed in reaching them. But we all are looking for our own meaning in life and it may take some time to attain what that goal is. Many times, the wandering can be quite amusing, teaching us that the voyage itself was the real goal all along. Enjoy!

Book excerpt: Fifteen-year-old Jennifer Brice Hamilton has been subjected to her mother’s new way of life ever since her parents’ divorce two years earlier - a move to a lower tax bracket in Chicago, an undesirable school, and her mother’s newest boyfriend: Phil. Jennifer rebels. Her mother’s answer to the “handful-slash-Jennifer” is to pack her up and send her to her grandma’s, whom Jennifer has not seen in almost three years. Her mother’s lusty plan is for Jennifer to reside there 'til Christmas. Jennifer captures her life in Flamingo Junction, Florida, with her grandmother in an ongoing diary of sorts - a sketchbook that she has titled Jenniferology - The Study of Jennifer. Jennifer’s grandmother, Mama Rudeen, lives in a retirement community called Camelot in North Florida. Mama Rudeen is not what Jennifer expected, nor are her grandmother’s friends - the gals: Miss Maggie Pearl, Miss Addie, and Miss Gaynell...and the guy - Sir Stuckie. Jennifer envisioned octogenarians sitting around waiting to take their last breath. She discovers that retirees have a zest for life. And, more importantly, they define to Jennifer what unconditional love truly means. Maybe it takes a retirement village to raise a child.

Download or read book Satin Island written by Tom McCarthy and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-listed for the Man Booker Prize From the author of Remainder and C (short-listed for the Man Booker Prize), and a winner of the Windham-Campbell Literature Prize, comes Satin Island, an unnerving novel that promises to give us the first and last word on the world—modern, postmodern, whatever world you think you are living in. U., a “corporate anthropologist,” is tasked with writing the Great Report, an all-encompassing ethnographic document that would sum up our era. Yet at every turn, he feels himself overwhelmed by the ubiquity of data, lost in buffer zones, wandering through crowds of apparitions, willing them to coalesce into symbols that can be translated into some kind of account that makes sense. As he begins to wonder if the Great Report might remain a shapeless, oozing plasma, his senses are startled awake by a dream of an apocalyptic cityscape. In Satin Island, Tom McCarthy captures—as only he can—the way we experience our world, our efforts to find meaning (or just to stay awake) and discern the narratives we think of as our lives.
Download or read book A Poet s Musings written by Andrew D Thomas and published by . This book was released on 2022-12-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FOLKS FAMILIAR WITH THE TEXT OF THIS BOOK recommend thinking persons read this book. The author's thoughts are unique, engaging, and needed, especially in the insane world we are currently living in. Individuals, of all stripes, need to read and understand what the author is revealing to them. Someone, somewhere, is having doubts about the way they were brought up and programmed to believe in religion, God, and all other such "tales." This book is a breath of fresh air, with dozens of reasons why individuals are correctly justified in attempting to break out of that programmed spell, that internal nagging about sin, coupled with religion's fanciful infections it has infused them with. This book may help break the mental yoke they are needlessly burdened with and help them move forward to fulfill a greater, (your) self-destiny. The author's writing style is educational, informative, easy to read, and to understand. It expresses a positive, yet analytical viewpoint, that reasons out the criticisms posted against religious orthodoxies. The author does not attempt to bash anyone or any religion by analyzing the content and context of what they present as truth, or even the existence of the God sapients created centuries ago. The author simply points out how religion and related fictional persons known as "saints" came about, and how it was thought all else came to be, when it wasn't, or didn't. The author points out the horrible relationship early humans thought they had with their God, and always ended up blaming themselves as the reason they fell so frequently to His punishments. When many people did not want to worship as the programmed (gullibles) did, nor believe as they did, the programmed looked for an enforcement tool, and thought they found it, and called it "hell." As the author notes, EVERYTHING IN EXISTENCE DIES, and so will religion and the God notion. In addition to other musings, individuals are given new ways to think about reality, what it really is and is not. What it is not is fantasy. Individuals need not fear, nor go about as fear-based humans, because of their prior programming; just go about as seekers of truth, enjoying what that endeavor will bring, to each individual's mind.

Download or read book Gleanings from My Musings and Dreams written by Bimal Ghosh and published by Pegasus Elliot MacKenzie Publishers Limited. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of his old and new poems, Bimal Ghosh reflects upon a rich variety of topics-as he had in his previous volume, Through the Eyes of My Mind (2015). The poems are grouped into six clusters: yearnings for a better world; self-portrait and introspection; twilight in life; death and darkness; the beauty of never-ending change; and anniversary wishes from a loving father. While the sentiments underlying these poems are intensely personal, they are also universal, as they touch the chord of common human feelings of sadness and joy, despair and ecstasy, hopes and frustrations, and anger and empathy. Consistent with their universality, they also seek to bring some solace to people in distress, and to lift up the spirits of those struggling against deprivation or injustice. Alongside the diversity of topics, the cadence of each cluster comes together to create a harmonious symphony of human emotions and enduring truths.
