Download or read book Spilling the Beans Over Coffee written by Linda Smith Kortemeyer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting the day with a cup of coffee, reading an inspirational book, and focusing on family or friends is a positive way to gather the strength needed to face the challenges ahead. Once a person retires there is more time to spend reflecting on the things accomplished in life, and since the routine schedule changes there is time to finish all those projects on your “bucket list”. Questions surface about whether the relatives in your family really knew you as well as they thought. You wonder if children, spouses, and friends realized the importance they played in your life or knew all the things you learned from them. Writing your stories down is more than just a review of your experiences, but it is a picture of your emotional and spiritual soul. In searching through records, there comes a realization many facts are lost and details missing from family history. There are photos found in file folders without labels, dates, or names. You wonder why someone left this puzzle to be found unless these are special pieces in the mystery of someone’s life. So pour a cup of coffee, sit down with this book, think about things in your own journey on life’s path that you would like to pass on to others, and listen to your heart.

Download or read book The Role of Sisters in Women s Development written by Sue A. Kuba Professor of Psychology at the California School of Professional Psychology and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2011-03-04 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological theory has traditionally overlooked or minimized the role of siblings in development, focusing instead on parent-child attachment relationships. The importance of sisters has been even more marginalized. Sue A. Kuba explores this omission in The Role of Sisters in Women's Development, seeking to broaden and enrich current understanding of the psychology of women. This unique work is distinguished by Kuba's phenomenological method of research, rooted in a single prompt: "Tell me about your relationship with your sister." Rich in detail, the responses (many of which are reproduced at length within the book) provide a complex picture of sister relationships across the lifespan. Integrating these stories with current literature about gender and family composition for sisters of difference (disabled and lesbian sisters) and ethnic sisters, this book provides useful recommendations for therapeutic understanding of the significance of sisters in everyday life, integrating diverse perspectives in order to address the ways clinicians can enhance psychological work with women clients. A valuable contribution to the field of mental health, The Role of Sisters in Women's Development is highly recommended for therapists who wish to broaden their inquiry into the sister connection, as well as anyone who wants to further understand the importance of sisterhood.
