Download or read book Thirty Days written by Mark Raphael Baker and published by Text Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One minute my wife was there. In a flash she was gone. In the ten months of Kerryn’s dying, I prepared myself for everything except for her death. Now that she is gone, I am desperate to know her as I never knew her. Thirty Days is a portrait of grief, of a marriage and of a family. It is the moving memoir of Mark’s wife of 33 years, Kerryn Baker, who died ten months after her diagnosis, aged 55, from stomach cancer. It is also a study in how we construct our own version of the past, after Mark discovers a cache of Kerryn’s letters in the laundry cupboard and has to rethink their relationship. It is a book about memory and its uncertainties, as Mark sifts through photos and home movies, as his wife gets sicker, and his search for clues about their relationship grows more desperate. In her last days, Kerryn reveals her traumatic childhood to Mark for the first time. She emerges as the rock of the family, a brave and wise woman, clear-eyed about her treatment, focused on finding the path to a peaceful death. Paradoxically, her dying brings the couple back to the intensity of their first love. In the tradition of Paul Kalanithi’s When Breath Becomes Air and Cory Taylor’s remarkable memoir, Dying, Mark Baker’s Thirty Days is an inspirational book about death and dying. As well as The Fiftieth Gate, A Journey Through Memory, a seminal book on his parents’ experience during the Holocaust, Mark Raphael Baker wrote a compelling memoir, Thirty Days, A Journey to the End of Love, about the death of his wife. He was Director of the Australian Centre for Jewish Civilisation and Associate Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies in the School at Monash University, Melbourne. He died in 2023. ‘Piercing, unsparing, and sweet, this book will break your heart and put it back together again.’ Miranda Richmond Mouillot, author of A Fifty-year Silence ‘A lament, a wail, a raw confession of suffering and regret, but most of all, of love.’ Ramona Koval ‘During the first thirty days of mourning, as Jewish law decrees it, Mark Baker wrote about his wife Kerryn Baker, who lived an ‘ordinary’ life, as most of us do, but who was extraordinary in the courage, dignity, and above all, the gentle, wise grace of her dying. Few of us will be able to die so well, but every reader of this book will be inspired to do so. Baker recalls their life together and writes of Kerryn’s death and dying in many tones—lyrically, tenderly, with self-deprecating irony, embarrassed candour and more—but one hears in them all pain so raw and need so desperate that it sometimes threatened to unhinge him. He writes of love and grief with power that brings back to our hearts knowledge that is too often only in our heads—that the disappearance of a human personality will forever be mysterious to us because every human being is irreplaceable.’ Raimond Gaita ‘Thirty Days is more than a cancer memoir, it is a searching, courageous, intensely intimate portrait of a marriage, a family, a beloved woman, a man wild with loss. Baker addresses the reader with searing honesty from the very heart of grief. His testimony will leave you devastated, enriched, irrevocably altered.’ Emily Bitto ‘A beautiful memoir, not just about one marriage, but the nature of marriage itself.’ Readings ‘A book characterised by love, empathy and connection to life.’ Sydney Morning Herald ‘Baker’s memoir allows his readers to see the magnitude of our existence beneath the surface of our daily lives’ Courier Mail

Download or read book Thirty Days Of Thought Culture Matters written by Jay Doran and published by Culture Unites Authors. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day the air we breathe is inhaled and exhaled. This is a give and take relationship between our sun and earth, heaven and earth, earth in general, and our entire world. These are micro and macro reflections of the same process we call life. The air we inhale begins this journey. Inhaling signifies acceptance, receiving, parenthood, enlightenment, mentorship, and love. Whereas the exhale signifies hardship, push back and fear of what is good. Growth is one word for the reader to take away with them. Growth is listening, speaking, reading and writing. Growth is love, hate, pain, pleasure, comfort and discomfort. Growth is life. It is inside our mind and mixed with the heart that makes us curious. Our souls are the observer and our minds are the rational interpreter. Thirty Days of Thought is your catalyst for purpose and will let you uncover your genius to create meaning from within. After you read this book, you will be thinking, dreaming, loving, articulating, leading, influencing, and radiating success from within and without fear of what doth not exist; failure. You are a genius and this book was written to help you uncover that. For the next thirty days, read an excerpt in the morning, afternoon and evening, write down your daily thoughts and make sure to film a video on what you read and or wrote. Do this daily for thirty days and the world you know will evolve through you because of you. Unlock the dark within the confines of internal and external conflict. Uncover your genius to bring forth the light that started with our sun. Similarly, to the sun, you have power to influence, lead, inspire and shine. This book will help you do that. Your culture matters, and it is time to get started so you can awaken your happiest potential and allow your journey to begin. See you on the bright side...

Take the next thirty days to create new habits that will set you down solidly on the road to meeting your relationship goals. At the end of this month-long challenge, you can look back on the goals you’ve already met and set new ones to look forward to. So get ready to win in relationship . . . together. Do you accept the challenge?
