Download or read book My Primrose Life Machine written by Lula Springs and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-08-31 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These poems sketch the rainbow colors of life as I see them. To some people, life is a cycle of events that are depicted by an array of emotions. To me, life is like a rainbow. This rainbow is composed of several colors very similar to any rainbow. Yet this rainbow is representative of human life, which is ever influenced by the meaningful events that color our days. Ive divided my book into four basic colors that reflect upon emotional reactions to everyday events. These colors are: yellow, which represents the bold and dynamic events that might reflect happiness. blue, which represents the mysterious and dreamy periods in our lives. gray, which represents the lonely, depressing feelings possessed by each of us at one time or another in our daily existence. red, which represents deep passion and love, emotions that are necessary for all living beings in order to thrive and grow from day to day. You are about to experience some of my personal perceptions of these periods in our lives and the emotions and feelings connected with them. The philosopher who coined the ironic phrase There is no substitute for experience has certainly shared many of these emotions and feelings. Perhaps you will relate to some of these all-too-familiar feelings and emotions while reading these poems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Guru‐follower Valerie accuses Scott of being a drug pusher! And Wayne, Scott's now unnecessary bodyguard, a shy, homely man who almost makes Kate forget her husband has left her, knew him the best of all. But Kate can't forget murder, especially since Wayne is the main suspect. And there is the pesky matter of Kate's fingerprints on the metal bar that broke Scott Younger's neck.

Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
