Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I saw my husband take Rudy for a ride in the Rudy Mobile, I asked myself, who does that? Who would take the time to indulge their pet in a slow-moving vehicle with the emergency lights on going down the street? Was that because the van was old and did not have enough oomph? At that moment, I heard a voice from within me say, You will write a book and share the story of Rudolph. The Rudy Mobile started, and off they drove together. The talented and gifted artist of all the illustrations in the book is Charlene Mosley, whom I crossed paths with at the nearby community college where I work and where Charlene attended. Charlene, born in Germany, speaks fluent German, is past president of the school art club, and attends San Diego State University where she will receive her Bachelor of Arts degree. I am so blessed to have crossed paths with Charlene, who shares the vision of this story. This is truly the workmanship of the Lord and how well we know it.

These spunky little dogs come in a variety of sizes, with the largest specimens reaching nearly thirty pounds in size and the smallest topping out at just ten pounds or so.

Download or read book The Secret History of Kindness Learning from How Dogs Learn written by Melissa Holbrook Pierson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-05-04 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate, surprising look at man’s best friend and what the leading philosophies of dog training teach us about ourselves. Years back, Melissa Holbrook Pierson brought home a border collie named Mercy, without a clue of how to get her to behave. Stunned after hiring a trainer whose immediate rapport with Mercy seemed magical, Pierson began delving into the techniques of positive reinforcement. She made her way to B. F. Skinner, the behavioral psychologist who started it all, the man who could train a pigeon to dance in minutes and whose research on how behavior is acquired has ramifications for military dolphin trainers, athletes, dancers, and, as he originally conceived, society at large. To learn more, Pierson met with a host of fascinating animal behaviorists, going behind the scenes to witness the relationships between trainers and animals at the National Zoo in Washington, DC, and to the in-depth seminars at a Clicker Expo where all the dogs but hers seemed to be learning new tricks. The often startling story of what became of a pathbreaking scientist’s work is interwoven with a more personal tale of how to understand the foreign species with whom we are privileged to live. Pierson draws surprising connections in her exploration of how kindness works to motivate all animals, including the human one.

Download or read book Heaven s Lessons written by Steve Sjogren and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2013-02-18 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If you’d asked me who God is on December 9, the year of my accident, I would have been able to give you a fairly cohesive but theoretical answer. A day later all of that changed.” A simple surgery went horribly wrong. Steve Sjogren died on the operating table. He encountered a heavenly world where he felt infinite peace. And then he had to come back—back to a physical reality filled with pain and disability and an endless line of tests. The drama of dying suddenly paled in comparison to the trauma of living. Sjogren could not face this new existence with his same old comfortable understanding of God. “I had minimized God,” Sjogren says. “Somehow, over time, he had become fairly predictable—like he could be outlined, fully grasped, and contained in a neat set of mere ideas. Now I saw that he apparently wasn’t all that impressed with my cool little notebooks.” One day in heaven followed by hundreds in agony forged a deeper and stronger faith than Sjogren could have crafted on his own. In Heaven’s Lessons, Sjogren shares his experiences and the life-changing ways they have affected his perspective on success, suffering, and the mysteries of God.

Download or read book At Eighty Two written by May Sarton and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-07-22 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling author of At Seventy returns with a memoir about advancing age, including her experience with a series of strokes. In this poignant and fearless account, Sarton chronicles the struggles of life at eighty-two. She juxtaposes the quotidian details of life—battling a leaky roof, sharing an afternoon nap with her cat, the joy of buying a new mattress—with lyrical musings about work, celebrity, devoted friends, and the limitations wrought by the frailties of age. She creates poetry out of everyday existence, whether bemoaning a lack of recognition by the literary establishment or the devastation wrought by a series of strokes. Incapacitated by illness, Sarton relies on friends for the little things she always took for granted. As she becomes more and more aware of “what holds life together in a workable whole,” she takes solace in flowers and chocolate and reading letters from devoted fans. This journal takes us into the heart and mind of an extraordinary artist and woman, and is a must-read for Sarton devotees and anyone facing the reality of growing older. This ebook features an extended biography of May Sarton.
