Book excerpt: "Meaning Making: 8 Values That Drive America's Newest Generations is our investigation into the values that young people, ages 13 to 25, practice and uphold.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly 1/3 of young people say they have no trusted adults in their lives. 35% say they have no one to turn to when they feel stressed. How do we help young people find a place to belong--where they are noticed, named, and known? In Belonging: Reconnecting America's Loneliest Generation, Springtide(tm) Research Institute shares new research about the landscape of loneliness drawn from our national study. It revealed epidemic levels of isolation among young people and has shown why participation does not equate to belonging. Our research demonstrates how you can cultivate thriving, relationship-driven programs that truly connect with young people: Simply put, you are the solution. The presence of just one trusted adult in the life of a young person cuts severe isolation in half. Building this sense of true belonging in young people is a process you can easily weave into your work with them. Using our unique, research-based Belongingness Process, we'll show you how and what you can do to help young people feel noticed, named, and known so that you can turn the tide on the epidemic of loneliness for the newest generations.

This book was released on 2020-10-16 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inner and outer lives of Gen Z are complex. The world today is complicated.

It doesn't tell us all we need to know about the things young people long for and belong to. Behaviors tell us more than checked boxes. Relationships reveal more than affiliations. And the most effective relationships practice Relational Authority, a framework that responds to these complexities, that is rooted in five practices: listening, transparency, integrity, care, and expertise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet and artist Bohuslav Reynek spent most of his life in the relative obskurity of the Czech-Moravian Highlands; although he suffered at the hands of the Communist regime, he cannot be numbered among the dissident poets of Eastern Europe who won acclaim for their political poetry in the second half of the twentieth century. Rather, Reynek belongs to an older pastoral devotionaltradition—a kindred spiritto the likes of Gerard Manley Hopkins, William Wordsworth, Robert Frost, and Edward Thomas. The first book of Reynek’s poetry to be published in English, The Well at Morning presents a selection of poems from across his life and is illustrated with twenty-five of his own color etchings. Also featuring three essays by leading scholars (M. C. Putna, J. Quinn, J. Šerých) that place Reynek’s life and work alongside those of his better-known peers, this book presents a noted Czech artist to the wider world, reshaping and amplifying our understanding of modern European poetry.

Download or read book The Book of Tea written by Kakuzo Okakura and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2006 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Tea is a brief but classic essay on tea drinking, its history, restorative powers, and rich connection to Japanese culture.

In tea could be found one source of what Okakura felt was Japan's and, by extension, Asia's unique power to influence the world. Containing both a history of tea in Japan and lucid, wide-ranging comments on the schools of tea, Zen, Taoism, flower arranging, and the tea ceremony and its tea-masters, this book is deservedly a timeless classic and will be of interest to anyone interested in the Japanese arts and ways.

After Vizetelly's imprisonment for obscene libel the novel was one of those revised and expurgated by his son, Ernest Alfred Vizetelly. The heroine is Lisa Quenu, a daughter of Antoine Macquart. She has become prosperous, and with prosperity her selfishness has increased. Her brother-in-law Florent had escaped from penal servitude in Cayenne and lived for a short time in her house, but she became tired of his presence and ultimately denounced him to the police. Émile Zola (1840 – 1902) was a French writer, the most important exemplar of the literary school of naturalism and an important contributor to the development of theatrical naturalism. He was a major figure in the political liberalization of France.
