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.

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.

Do bad relationships follow you everywhere you go?As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, victim of sudden and traumatic loss, and expert on bad relationships, Pastor Sabrenah knows all about the impact of trauma and how it shapes behaviors. She transformed herself from a victim to a successful advocate for children and families. However, with all her successes, she still struggled with building trusting relationships. Always attracting the same type of people. Those who required a lot of energy, having the appearance of strength and stability on the outside but severely bruised and hurt on the inside. Toxic relationships were like a magnet she couldn't resist. If this sounds like you, you're probably asking yourself, "Why do I keep ending up with this or that type of relationship?" For Sabrenah, it's called the rescuer's syndrome. Unknowingly, she found herself in situations with a compulsion to rescue others even at the detriment of denying her own needs. It's like a bad habit that's hard to break. Some might call that an addiction. That's what trauma does. It affects who you are until you open your heart and mind to become someone different.

Download or read book THE CALL TO R EVOLUTION written by Robert Rensing and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revolution causes chaos, many deaths, and immense suffering. It is not an acceptable way to try and force change in a faltering society. Evolution offers opportunities for peaceful change, but it is a terribly slow process. Which do we choose when change is needed? That slow process of evolution can be accelerated. The tool is awareness, not of what is happening in society but why things are happening. This book deals with practical but peaceful aspects of accelerating evolution, changes that each person can adopt regardless of personal values, convictions, social status, education, and religious beliefs. It is the result of the author living in virtual seclusion for several years, which allows him time to reflect on how change can be achieved in a respectful manner. The book contains observations about why and what is going on, followed by a series of clear topics and objective suggestions for reflection, private and public conversation. This is not intended to be a manual for change. The goal is to gain objective understanding of the challenges of today with the expectation that those insights may result in changes on a purely personal level that in turn will stimulate changes in the national and international communities.

Book excerpt: A farm boy from the mountains of North Carolina, Rufus Edmisten could not have been prepared for the halls of power in Washington, D.C., during the Vietnam War era, as young men burned their draft cards and pro-cannabis factions held "smoke-ins" in the capital. A University of North Carolina Chapel Hill graduate, he earned a law degree at George Washington University and landed a job as counsel to U.S. senator Samuel J. Ervin, Jr. This led to Edmisten's appointment as Deputy Chief Counsel for the Senate Watergate Committee--he personally served Richard Nixon the first ever subpoena of a sitting president by Congress. Returning to North Carolina, he served as Attorney General and Secretary of State before retiring from public life to practice law and participate in charitable activities. Written with humor and candor, his memoir recalls the cultural contrasts of American life in the 1970s and 1980s, and affirms that the business of government is to enable us to live together peacefully.
