Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *NOW A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES—from producer and director Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) starring Mark Ruffalo, Hugh Laurie, and newcomer Aria Mia Loberti* Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist, the beloved instant New York Times bestseller and New York Times Book Review Top 10 Book about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel. In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge. Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).

Book excerpt: Heaven is real. You will learn that you are special, and you are right where you are supposed to be right now. This is the perfect time for you to read this book. Included are the facts I learned that we create our own reality, and you will learn why people are born to love others of the same sex or homosexuals. When I learned why and how I came to be, I was astonished. It was so difficult to get the old teachings out of my head. The reason for the creation of all is probably the biggest shock of everything I learned. I still spend hours contemplating what I learned. It will not sink in right away. Believe me, it takes time to come to grips to the reality of our creation and of all that is. I learned how and why this all began.
Download or read book See the Light written by Patti K. Owens and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of letters of encouragement written to friends and strangers. All are inspired by the Holy Spirit. These letters try to see the light that can be elusive in people's lives. They were written to remind people of who they are or to help them through a difficult time. They span the emotions of love, hope, compassion, joy, gratitude, faith, and peace. They always speak to the recipient's hearts. There are life's moments that need to be acknowledged or validated, and these letters respond to those moments. Jesus said, "Let there be light," and this book describes how to find it in a very ordinary way. The letters are always optimistic. It is so important to see the light in the darkness. It is important to look around and see the goodness in others and, most importantly, in ourselves. Life is worth living and living to the fullest. The responses from the recipients of the letters are so often "These are the exact words that I needed to hear."

Download or read book When You Can See the Light Within written by Henry B. Naiken and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will change your life. I know, for what you are about to read has changed mine to a certain degree. However, I would like to properly articulate the overwhelming emotions and warmth from my heart for the man that I have known for more than 23 years. His presence remains so influential in my life and so familiar to my family and me. Indeed, Dr. Naiken is such a good friend, a spiritual brother, that most of the time we have come to function at the same level of mind - we perceive the same thoughts, intuitions and feelings about events to happen - un-strange as this may seem. Since his early years Dr. Naiken made his search for inner fulfillment the mark of planting seeds of what would eventually blossom into his dedication towards helping people reach their unlimited inner resources. The account of personal power presented in this book actually happened to us. In many cases, the changes took place in the same amount of time it will take you to read about them. These transformations, which include the methods design to get you free from worldly problems, are the result of initiation with the Guru, Arvind Shrimali - the son of Guru Dev (Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali) of Jodhpur, India. You the counselor, consultant, coaches, managers, engineers, athletes, entrepreneurs, executives, and parents - all kinds of people interested in personal and professional freedom, this book is for you. It didn't start here. We set out on the 14 th of April 2002, with little more than our sincere desire that deliberate initiation was possible. Dr. Naiken has spent 30 years searching across the fields of psychology, metaphysics, brain-management and spiritualism for ways to implement change that works. He measured the success of his knowledge by the results it could generate. For 3 decades he searched for the keys to real and lasting change before deciding to go all the way. His motive was personal as well as professional. He wanted to assist his clients and anyone with an interest towards personal development with the necessary tools for overcoming difficulties and self-imposed limitations. As a mediator of change he wanted skills that could enhance those who were already accomplishing and increasing what was already outstanding. For his own satisfaction, he wanted to be able to move beyond fixing problems to awakening the giant within. He's always believed that he could do, be, have, and become more...and that you can too. Now, more than ever in the time of human history, approaches of diverse kinds have been pointing towards improving human potentials and increasing possibilities. Some of them are well known, with titles like positive thinking, positive mental attitude, visualisation, affirmations, inner child work, goal setting and personal power. You may even have tried your mind at some of them. If your experience was like ours, sometimes they worked and the results were truly marvelous. Many times though, they didn't. And when they didn't, no matter how much we wanted or needed them to work, they wouldn't. It was these erratic results that kept him searching even further for the real roots of change. He knew he was already part of the way there. He wanted to produce results consistently. He wanted to know the difference that made the difference between an occasional or temporary relief and a deep, lasting change. Before I pen off, I would like you to note two major points: 1. If the secrets of this book is a unique gift from Godorn to this world than the deep knowledge and wisdom searched by Dr. Naiken and presented here is indeed a gift to the whole of mankind. 2. If some of the ideas in this book seem strange to you at first that is good. Why? Be cause it means you are sighting entirely new guide posts, which will lead you up the right paths. Have no dismay if you do not understand these teachings at first. They are easy to grasp. Other people

Download or read book Memory Wall written by Anthony Doerr and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-07-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wise and beautiful second collection from the acclaimed, Pulitzer Prize-winning #1 New York Times bestselling author of All the Light We Cannot See, and Cloud Cuckoo Land, "Doerr writes about the big questions, the imponderables, the major metaphysical dreads, and he does it fearlessly" (The New York Times Book Review). Set on four continents, Anthony Doerr's new stories are about memory, the source of meaning and coherence in our lives, the fragile thread that connects us to ourselves and to others. Every hour, says Doerr, all over the globe, an infinite number of memories disappear. Yet at the same time children, surveying territory that is entirely new to them, push back the darkness, form fresh memories, and remake the world. In the luminous and beautiful title story, a young boy in South Africa comes to possess an old woman's secret, a piece of the past with the power to redeem a life. In "The River Nemunas," a teenage orphan moves from Kansas to Lithuania to live with her grandfather, and discovers a world in which myth becomes real. "Village 113," winner of an O'Henry Prize, is about the building of the Three Gorges Dam and the seed keeper who guards the history of a village soon to be submerged. And in "Afterworld," the radiant, cathartic final story, a woman who escaped the Holocaust is haunted by visions of her childhood friends in Germany, yet finds solace in the tender ministrations of her grandson. Every story in Memory Wall is a reminder of the grandeur of life--of the mysterious beauty of seeds, of fossils, of sturgeon, of clouds, of radios, of leaves, of the breathtaking fortune of living in this universe. Doerr's language, his witness, his imagination, and his humanity are unparalleled in fiction today.
