Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Life Without Consequences is a semi-biographical novel from emerging author Steve Elliott. His novel traces the fate of Paul, a boy whose mother has died and who runs away from a violent father. The book follows Paul from living on the streets of Chicago to passing through juvinile institutions and a state system that is primarily programmed for failure. There, he meets Tanya and they fall in love but they are young and are separated after a failed attempt to escape the institution. Paul battles through the violent system all the while battling his own rapidly budding adolescence. But as he turns sixteen he starts to come to terms with his own path, not as an adult, but as a scared child. Paul's emotions that we think of as anger are actually the determination to take control of his future. As he starts to overcome the system that has housed him, we see him developing a voice and a future of his own, but one day Tanya reappears in his life and the real decisions have to be made. While the characters are fictional, the do not have to be they are representative of many and we realize the fragility of childhood and the burden on the children who have nowhere else to go.

Download or read book Religion of Sports written by Gotham Chopra and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the sports documentarian and executive producer of the docuseries The Religion of Sports, a memoir-meets-manifesto about the overwhelming power of sports and how they provide meaning and purpose in people’s lives all over the world. Sports is a religion. This isn’t a metaphor—sports is a living, evolving religion populated by true believers, who go on pilgrimages to sacred sites (Fenway Park), witness miracles and mythologies (Michael Jordan does not abide by gravity’s rules), observe rituals (Lebron’s “chalk toss” before any game), and, most importantly, form communities around shared beliefs (Odessa, Texas, the town made famous by Friday Night Lights). From Gotham Chopra—a lifelong diehard sports fan who also happens to be the son of world-renowned spiritualist Deepak Chopra—comes a compelling and incisive exploration demonstrating how heavily sports and religion are intertwined. With an endless list of intimate anecdotes from sports luminaries like Tom Brady, Serena Williams, Lebron James, Stephen Curry, and more, Gotham weaves an entirely unique thread linking the world’s wisdom tradition with an evolving and powerful sports faith. Passionate and inspiring, The Religion of Sports is not just for diehard sports fans, but also for anyone who’s ever believed in something greater than themselves.

This book offers 12 reflective themes for cultivating both personal and professional self-realization and becoming a transformational change agent who helps others do the same. There are 365 entries, one for each day of the year. Each entry has a quotation with a commentary to feed the day’s reflection, as well as a suggestion for reflective practice. One entry every week offers the opportunity to review the previous week or sets up a focus for the coming week.

Download or read book The Road to Sparta written by Dean Karnazes and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Road to Sparta is the story of the 153-mile run from Athens to Sparta that inspired the marathon and saved democracy, as told--and experienced--by ultramarathoner and New York Times bestselling author Dean Karnazes. In 490 BCE, Pheidippides ran for 36 hours straight from Athens to Sparta to seek help in defending Athens from a Persian invasion in the Battle of Marathon. In doing so, he saved the development of Western civilization and inspired the birth of the marathon as we know it. Even now, some 2,500 years later, that run stands enduringly as one of greatest physical accomplishments in the history of mankind. Karnazes personally honors Pheidippides and his own Greek heritage by recreating this ancient journey in modern times. Karnazes even abstains from contemporary endurance nutrition like sports drinks and energy gels and only eats what was available in 490 BCE, such as figs, olives, and cured meats. Through vivid details and internal dialogs, The Road to Sparta offers a rare glimpse into the mindset and motivation of an extreme athlete during his most difficult and personal challenge to date. This story is sure to captivate and inspire--whether you run great distances or not at all.

Download or read book A Gift to Imagine written by Scott Ludwig and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-08-22 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of my favorite comic strips is Bill Wattersons Calvin and Hobbes. Its based on the adventures and misadventures of six-year old Calvin and his stuffed tiger Hobbes. However, in Calvins mind Hobbes is the real deal, and the interactions between the two of them reflect that of a young boy and his living, breathing tiger friend. Calvins imagination is the stimulus of one of the most beloved, humorous and heart-warming comic strips of all time. Calvin is the antithesis of what is going on in the world today. Creativity and imagination seem to have taken a leave of absence recently. Movies and television shows are constantly being remade. New magazines look a lot like those already found on the newsstands. Television commercials are, for the most part sorely lacking in appeal. Radio commercials? Even worse: Same old song, same old story, same old same old. One of the things I love most about my grandson Krischan is his imagination Ive seen him invent an entire game using only a couple of sticks, a handful of rocks and an ant bed. Ive stood by his side as he saw and battled imaginary creatures so passionately I could have sworn I saw them too. Ive heard him create words for things that make so much more sense to me than the actual word he should be using. The boy has such a vivid imagination I make sure to pay close attention so I dont miss out on what he does or says next. He is, in a word Calvin. Coincidentally my nickname for him since the day he was born is Tiger. I have very single book chronicling the exploits of Calvin and Hobbes. Ive been saving them for Krischan so one day he can appreciate the magic Bill Watterson has created. I cant think of anyone better to pass the books along to, and hope Krischan will be eager to tear into them once he learns how to read. After he reads this book first, of course.

Download or read book Her Cowboy Billionaire Best Friend s Brother written by Liz Isaacson and published by AEJ Creative Works. This book was released on with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She's best friends with the single dad cowboy's brother and has watched two friends find love with the sexy new cowboys in town. When Gray Hammond comes to Whiskey Mountain Lodge with his son, will Elise finally get her own happily-ever-after with one of the Hammond brothers? Elise Murphy tends to the grounds and animals at Whiskey Mountain Lodge—and she's just fine working with plants and animals who don't talk back. She's shy and petite, but is finding her place among the louder Whittaker family the longer she works for them. She's also incredibly lonely and tired of being on the sidelines. But she doesn't know how to break out of the mold she's lived in for so long, despite her best friend's urgings to do so. If her best friend wasn't one of the Hammond brothers, who's so full of charm and confidence, Elise might think he actually understood. Gray Hammond has visited Whiskey Mountain Lodge in the past, and with his parents off on a cruise for the holidays and his job at the family company wrapped up, he decides to take his son to the lodge for Christmas to visit his two older brothers who now live in Coral Canyon. When he gets introduced to Colton's best friend, Gray can hardly remember who he is or where he came from. What he knows is Elise is gorgeous, and her shy spirit is exactly what his more analytical mind likes. He has no job to get back to, and plenty of reasons to keep all women out of his son's life. His life too, he tells himself. But he can't help the gravitational pull to Elise, and as they get to know each other, he wonders if they could make a relationship—and a family—work. Can Elise find true love with her best friend's brother? Or will Gray's fears and worries about his son keep them on neutral ground?
