Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A while after mom passed, I encouraged dad to actually make a bucket list. When he sent me his first list I had to laugh because there were only just a few things on it. I suggested that he needed to think bigger and encouraged him to think about other things he might like to do. I also invited him to go to New York City because he had never been there and I have loved exploring the City and felt he would love it too. "So in June of 2019, dad and my youngest sister Christina and I headed out for what turned out to be quite the adventure, full of delight and drama and wonderful experiences that he shares in this book. It was wonderful for me to be a spectator of my dad's experiences in a new place and especially to take him to the Brooklyn Tabernacle to experience in person, the wonderful Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. In this book, dad will tell part of the story of this experience but there is more that I'd like to share. We arrived an hour early for the service, after taking a bus and a ferry and walking a bit before taking another bus. It was a very hot day and already there was quite a crowd lined up outside the Tabernacle, waiting for the doors to open for the 11:00am service. During our wait, I encouraged dad to drink water but I saw that he was really struggling with the heat and having no place to sit. He was showing signs of exhaustion so I went to the entrance and talked with the two men there and asked if my dad could come inside and wait due to his declining condition. They agreed and dad tells this drama part of the story in this book. "When we were finally seated after the drama, I was beginning to feel claustrophobic. The small, old theatre seats next to me were filled with overstuffed people and I was forced to be squished up against dad and I began to feel anxious. But when the music started, 3300 people rose to their feet in joy and in worship and I was so overcome with joy that tears just poured from my eyes. I couldn't stop the flow of tears. It was such a beautiful experience to be in the presence of God and just worship Him. It was a day full of happiness and joy and I am grateful to have shared this with dad. "Dad was and still is a great but quiet teacher, teaching mostly by example. When I was very young, we took a family trip to the ocean. Even though I was only three or four, I remember so much about that trip...long walks on the beach with mom, looking for special rocks and shells; clam digging with dad and going to sleep listening to the calming sound of the waves crashing on the shore. One day while dad and I were clam digging, a huge wave swooped over me and took me out to sea. Dad rushed into the waves and caught me before I could be taken to China or wherever. As I look back, I don't remember being scared and the most amazing thing is dad didn't fuss about it at all. He set me back on the sand and we continued to clam dig a bit further away from the ocean waves. I truly believe this formed my initial beliefs about adventure and life...to be fearless. If dad had shown panic or fear, the outcome may have caused me to be fearful instead of fearless. I learned a most valuable lesson that day and have drawn on this lesson so many times in my life."

Download or read book A Most Improbable Adventure written by Jason Thiessen and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-05-18 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty-one-year-old Jason Thiessen was a recently unemployed husband and father of two young boys. During a time when he should have been acting responsibly and being realistic, he did what many thought was reckless and foolhardy. He traveled to Central America and made his way overland from Mexico City to Panama City, with virtually no plan. Rather than succumb to the fears of others, he followed his heart and the wise guidance of his ever-supportive wife and took off on an adventure through one of the worlds most dangerous, yet beautiful, and often overlooked geographies. He was typically twice as old as the travelers he encountered but he also met and teamed up with others in his own age group. With heart, humour, wit, and edginess, Thiessen shares his travel stories in A Most Improbable Adventure. He tells how he ventured through Central America to explore, to expand his mind and spirit, to take advantage of a gift that was given him, and, ultimately, to seek fulfillment.

Download or read book The Road to Character written by David Brooks and published by Random House. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • David Brooks challenges us to rebalance the scales between the focus on external success—“résumé virtues”—and our core principles. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMIST With the wisdom, humor, curiosity, and sharp insights that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous bestsellers, David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. In The Social Animal, he explored the neuroscience of human connection and how we can flourish together. Now, in The Road to Character, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our lives. Looking to some of the world’s greatest thinkers and inspiring leaders, Brooks explores how, through internal struggle and a sense of their own limitations, they have built a strong inner character. Labor activist Frances Perkins understood the need to suppress parts of herself so that she could be an instrument in a larger cause. Dwight Eisenhower organized his life not around impulsive self-expression but considered self-restraint. Dorothy Day, a devout Catholic convert and champion of the poor, learned as a young woman the vocabulary of simplicity and surrender. Civil rights pioneers A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin learned reticence and the logic of self-discipline, the need to distrust oneself even while waging a noble crusade. Blending psychology, politics, spirituality, and confessional, The Road to Character provides an opportunity for us to rethink our priorities, and strive to build rich inner lives marked by humility and moral depth. “Joy,” David Brooks writes, “is a byproduct experienced by people who are aiming for something else. But it comes.” Praise for The Road to Character “A hyper-readable, lucid, often richly detailed human story.”—The New York Times Book Review “This profound and eloquent book is written with moral urgency and philosophical elegance.”—Andrew Solomon, author of Far from the Tree and The Noonday Demon “A powerful, haunting book that works its way beneath your skin.”—The Guardian “Original and eye-opening . . . Brooks is a normative version of Malcolm Gladwell, culling from a wide array of scientists and thinkers to weave an idea bigger than the sum of its parts.”—USA Today

Download or read book The Bucket List Journal written by Ben Nemtin and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This journal is a safe place for your dreams to live. This is where you can track your dreams and update them as you evolve over time. This journal is designed to help you overcome the greatest barriers that will stop you from achieving your goals. The following pages will help you take tangible steps towards your goals and help you achieve them. The problem is that our personal goals often take the back burner in our busy lives. They are the first things to fall through the cracks of our packed schedules and most of us continue to push our personalgoals until it's too late. When we reach our final days we regret the things we didn't do, not the things we did. When researchers from Cornell asked thousands of people on their deathbed to name the biggest regret in their entire life, 76% of participants had the same answer, "Not fulfilling my ideal self." This statistic not only broke my heart but it was a turning point in my life. My mission became to not only ensure that I didn't end up in that76% but to also help as many people as I could to not end up there either. It's wild to think that over three-quarters of the population will reach the end of their life and think, "Damn. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself. Not the life that others expected of me."The goal of The Bucket List Journal is simple: ensure that you do not reach your deathbed regretting the things you did not do. My bucket list transformed my life. It changed the realities of my friends and my family and I believe it has the power to change your life too.
