Download or read book The Navel Diaries written by Diann Logan and published by Third Chapter Press. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navel Diaries: How I Lost My Belly Button and Found Myself offers the reader a poignant and humorous view of one woman's journey into maturity. After decades of inhabiting a body with a stunning flat belly and a perfect navel, things changed for the author. The perfect navel was ruined by pneumonia, altered to bulging status by the hacking cough. For some this might not be worth noting, but for the author it was a profound life event. She, like so many others, thought she would be forever young, never planned to feel or be old. It was that moment, that first glimpse of the new, permanent out-ey, that jolted the author into the shocking awareness of the one-way street of life's progression. It was the first signal that youth is fleeting, that it will be replaced by a continuous string of events, all of them verifying that the aging process is well under way. The wit of the book is infused with generational memories and family lore that dovetail into the present. The vivid narratives take the reader along on the journey: from the segregated swimming pool of childhood to the possibility of a new house in a 55+ retirement community, from the oiled, bronzed skin of college to the dermatologist's office, from the days of beehives to the driver's license that falsely depicts a few gray hairs as "Hair: Gray". There are new physical and emotional perspectives every day, and as with any diary, they are faithfully chronicled. There are creaking joints and drooping breasts, an ancient bladder and quirky digestion, questions about usefulness and purpose, commentary about maintaining a youthful stride through parking lots and airports and life. The author investigates the beauty culture from the vantage point of maturity and challenges the cultural stereotypes about aging. Speculative questions include: Must we burden our children with the same old attitudes about getting older? Must we protect them from the actuality of aging? Must we leave our daughters to discover for themselves the resilience of unwanted chin whiskers? The metaphors utilized veer along the continuum from thoughtful to ridiculous to indignant. Sometimes the tale is humorous, sometimes it touches the heart. The perspective is refreshing; the attitude is always positive and passionate. This diary encourages the author and the reader to come to terms with the age that's coming.

Download or read book Navel Gazing written by Michael Ian Black and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author and stand-up comedian Michael Ian Black (author of A Child’s First Book of Trump) delivers a “memorable and funny” (Kirkus Reviews) memoir about confronting his genetic legacy as he hits his forties. Black pulls no punches in this hilariously honest memoir, a follow-up to the acclaimed You’re Not Doing It Right. When Michael’s mother receives a harrowing medical diagnosis, Michael begins a laugh-out-loud examination of health, happiness, and the human body from the perspective of a settled (and sedentary) husband and father of two. With the trademark wit that has made Michael’s other books popular favorites, Navel Gazing is a heartfelt and poignant memoir about coming to terms with growing older and the inevitability of death. It is also a self-deprecating and deliciously frank remembrance of exercise failures, finding out he is part Neanderthal, and almost throwing down with fellow author Tucker Max. Michael Ian Black may not have the perfect body. Or be the perfect father. Or husband. Or son. But you will laugh as you recognize yourself in his attempts to do better. And, inevitably, falling short. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll call your mom.

Download or read book The Existentialist s Survival Guide written by Gordon Marino and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When it comes to living, there’s no getting out alive. But books can help us survive, so to speak, by passing on what is most important about being human before we perish. In The Existentialist’s Survival Guide, Marino has produced an honest and moving book of self-help for readers generally disposed to loathe the genre.” —The Wall Street Journal Sophisticated self-help for the 21st century—when every crisis feels like an existential crisis Soren Kierkegaard, Frederick Nietzsche, Jean-Paul Sartre, and other towering figures of existentialism grasped that human beings are, at heart, moody creatures, susceptible to an array of psychological setbacks, crises of faith, flights of fancy, and other emotional ups and downs. Rather than understanding moods—good and bad alike—as afflictions to be treated with pharmaceuticals, this swashbuckling group of thinkers generally known as existentialists believed that such feelings not only offer enduring lessons about living a life of integrity, but also help us discern an inner spark that can inspire spiritual development and personal transformation. To listen to Kierkegaard and company, how we grapple with these feelings shapes who we are, how we act, and, ultimately, the kind of lives we lead. In The Existentialist's Survival Guide, Gordon Marino, director of the Hong Kierkegaard Library at St. Olaf College and boxing correspondent for The Wall Street Journal, recasts the practical takeaways existentialism offers for the twenty-first century. From negotiating angst, depression, despair, and death to practicing faith, morality, and love, Marino dispenses wisdom on how to face existence head-on while keeping our hearts intact, especially when the universe feels like it’s working against us and nothing seems to matter. What emerges are life-altering and, in some cases, lifesaving epiphanies—existential prescriptions for living with integrity, courage, and authenticity in an increasingly chaotic, uncertain, and inauthentic age.
