Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written by my late atatsiak (grandfather) Paulus Maggo. It is a very inspirational book about the experiences that he had in his life. I love this book, and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in Inuit history, culture and traditions. I do not remember a lot of my atatsiak ... and he never really got to tell me stories about his life while he was growing up. I feel that this book is a way for me to see through his history and what he went through throughout his life. This book is like a connection between me and him that we can still share today -- from goodreads.com.

Download or read book LIFE Remembering George Harrison written by The Editors of LIFE and published by Life. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the editors who have previously brought forth bestselling illustrated biographies on the Beatles as a group and John Lennon in particular, now comes Remembering George Harrison: 10 Years Later. He was the quiet Beatle only in that he was standing alongside two louder-than-life characters and in front of a guy playing drums. He held many strong opinions — on Beatlemania, on global want, on his right to privacy, on his God — and gave firm voice to most of them. But George Harrison was certainly the most reluctant Beatle, wanting out almost as soon as he was in. He often said that his luckiest break was joining the band and his second luckiest was leaving it. The standard line is that George Harrison was an enigma, but perhaps he was transparent: a terrific guitarist, a fine songwriter, a wonderer, a seeker and, overriding all, a celebrity who hated and feared celebrity. George Harrison died at a friend's home in Los Angeles ten years ago, in late 2001, at age 58, losing his last battle with cancer. He was beloved, and had been for a long time. He had thrived in the aftermath of the band's breakup, becoming a recording artist on the level of his former mates McCartney and Lennon. He became as well the Happy Mystic, leading his legion of fans — of followers — toward a more meaningful way of living. As would be expected from LIFE, it is all here in pictures — the Hamburg days, the Cavern Club, the craze that was Beatlemania, the fun movies, the psychedelic period, the solo years (replete with Harrison's reaction to Lennon's death, and the subsequent attack on him and his wife at his English estate). The photographers who knew George and the Beatles best — Astrid Kirchherr in Hamburg; Terence Spencer in the UK; Harry Benson in London, Paris and the U.S.; Bob Whitaker as the band's official photographer during the halcyon years; LIFE's John Loengard and Bill Eppridge throughout it all-are all here, as they were in our book on Lennon. This is an intimate look back, with many visual surprises. The narrative is largely written by (and the book is edited by) LIFE managing editor Robert Sullivan, who wrote TIME magazine's cover story on George's passing 10 years ago. One of the many marvels of the Beatles was that, although they all emerged from working-class Liverpool backgrounds, they were such distinct and fiercely individualistic personalities. None more so than George Harrison, who started well in the shadows and came to stand for something very large, and beautiful. This is his book.
Download or read book Everything Left to Remember written by Steph Jagger and published by Flatiron Books. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This will cast a spell on fans of Cheryl Strayed and Glennon Doyle." - Publishers Weekly Between Two Kingdoms meets Wild. In this heart wrenching and inspirational memoir a woman and her mother, who is suffering from dementia, embark on a road trip through national parks, revisiting the memories, and the mountains, that made them who they are. Steph Jagger lost her mother before she lost her. Her mother, stricken with an incurable disease that slowly erases all sense of self, struggles to remember her favorite drink, her favorite song, and—perhaps most heartbreaking of all—Steph herself. Steph watches as the woman who loved and raised her slips away before getting the chance to tell her story, and so Steph makes a promise: her mother will walk it and she will write it. Too aware of her mother’s waning memory, Steph proposes that the two take a camping trip out to Montana—which her mother, on the urging of Steph’s father, agrees to embark upon. An adventure full of horseback riding, hiking, and “tenting” out West quickly turns into one woman’s reflection on childhood, motherhood, personhood—and what it means to love someone who doesn’t quite remember the person she spent her lifetime becoming. A staggeringly beautiful examination of how stories are passed down through generations and from Mother Nature, Everything Left to Remember brings us the wisdom of who our memories make us under the constellations of the vast Montana sky.

Book excerpt: ♥ CONFIDENCE, SELF-LOVE, AND HAPPINESS ♥ For Women Who Want to Live a Life They Deserve Are you struggling to find yourself and learn why you can''t be happy no matter how hard you try? Do you desperately keep searching for a true YOU, unable to define what you are all about? You know you have so much love, beauty, and life inside of you, yet you feel misunderstood, frequently sabotaging yourself because you think you''re unworthy. Because you don''t fit in. Because all your life you''ve been taught to be someone you are not and believe that you are not good enough. Are you tired of constantly putting yourself down, second guessing everything you say, and feeling guilty for taking time for yourself? Do you hate that you are never able to say no when you want to? Are you desperate to stop feeling unworthy and undeserving of anything good that comes your way? I''ve been there and I know exactly how you feel. For years, I thought there was something seriously wrong with me. I kept allowing the negativity of my toxic relationship ruin every positive aspect of my life and succumbed to my paralyzed perfectionism practices, frustrated and unable to find out why I couldn''t change how I lived. I was angry with myself because I couldn''t define what I wanted or who I truly was. Do you feel that instead of finding ways to grow and succeed in life, you convinced yourself that you''re not capable of making a change and that being stuck where you are now is the only way to be? But the real question is this: What are you afraid of? Is fear stopping you in finding who you are and moving on with your life, or are you just waiting to stop feeling afraid? Either way, you''ll be waiting your whole life to find out if you don''t take action today. Just like you, I struggled with low self-esteem, unhealthy eating habits, and living in the past. I kept promising myself that I would do all the things I ever wanted to do, but I never had the courage to pursue them because I persuaded myself that those were just dreams. But dreaming didn''t help. Taking action did. My longing for harmony in life from what I eat and how I treat my body, to how I live my life, inspired me to compile some of my most popular articles and stories into this book, including the exercises that helped me change my life. From the moment I learned what I was all about and how to awaken the person I''ve been my whole life, my life changed. I slowly started to make changes that influenced my life in a BIG way and helped me create the life I live today. Once I learned this, my life became peaceful. I became calm. I stopped caring what others thought of me. I put an end to letting others influence me in a negative way, telling me what I should do. I detached from everything that was not helping me grow. This book is for you if you: ★ Don''t know where to start and feel overwhelmed with all the information that is available out there. ★ Doubt yourself and keep saying that you can''t do it. ★ Gave up on your dreams because you never believed you could achieve them or because someone close to you tried to persuade you that going after your dreams is a waste of time. ★ You keep justifying yourself in everything you do, just to prove to others that you are good enough. ★ You are constantly distracted by your everyday life that you never have time to focus on what is important to you. If you''re still looking for that one person who can change your life, take a look in the mirror. You are beautiful. You are capable. You are everything you need. It''s time to get your life back. To be happy, fulfilled, confident, and free! Free to do what you love, free to have a different opinion, free to be who you are!
Download or read book Unbound written by Steph Jagger and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young woman follows winter across five continents on a physical and spiritual journey that tests her body and soul, in this transformative memoir, full of heart and courage, that speaks to the adventurousness in all of us. Steph Jagger had always been a force of nature. Dissatisfied with the passive, limited roles she saw for women growing up, she emulated the men in her life—chasing success, climbing the corporate ladder, ticking the boxes, playing by the rules of a masculine ideal. She was accomplished. She was living "The Dream." But it wasn't her dream. Then the universe caught her attention with a sign: Raise Restraining Device. Steph had seen this ski lift sign on countless occasions in the past, but the familiar words suddenly became a personal call to shake off the life she had built in a search for something different, something more. Steph soon decided to walk away from the success and security she had worked long and hard to obtain. She quit her job, took a second mortgage on her house, sold everything except her ski equipment and her laptop, and bought a bundle of plane tickets. For the next year, she followed winter across North and South America, Asia, Europe, and New Zealand—and up and down the mountains of nine countries—on a mission to ski four million vertical feet in a year. What hiking was for Cheryl Strayed, skiing became for Steph: a crucible in which to crack open her life and get to the very center of herself. But she would have to break herself down—first physically, then emotionally—before she could start to rebuild. And it was through this journey that she came to understand how to be a woman, how to love, and how to live authentically. Electrifying, heartfelt, and full of humor, Unbound is Steph’s story—an odyssey of courage and self-discovery that, like Wild and Eat, Pray, Love, will inspire readers to remove their own restraining devices and pursue the life they are meant to lead.

Download or read book Children s Past Lives written by Carol Bowman and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Has your child lived before? In this fascinating, controversial, and groundbreaking book, Carol Bowman reveals overwhelming evidence of past life memories in children. Not only are such experiences real, they are far more common than most people realize. Bowman's extraordinary investigation was sparked when her young son, Chase, described his own past-life death on a Civil War battlefield--an account so accurate it was authenticated by an expert historian. Even more astonishing, Chase's chronic eczema and phobia of loud noises completely disappeared after he had the memory. Inspired by Chase's dramatic healing, Bowman compiled dozens of cases and wrote this comprehensive study to explain how very young children remember their past lives, spontaneously and naturally. In Children's Past Lives, she tells how to distinguish between a true past life memory and a fantasy, offers practical advice to parents on how to respond to a past life memory, and shows how to foster the spiritual and healing benefits of these experiences. Perhaps the most moving, convincing, and best-documented evidence yet for life after death, Children's Past Lives will stand alongside the classics of Betty J. Eadie, Raymond Moody, and Brian Weiss in its power to comfort, uplift, and transform our thinking about life after death
