Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to this guide to your New Human. I'll start with a disclaimer: it's not a guide. If you choose to follow some of the things that I have done, then it's on you, pal. Written as I awaited the birth of my second child, this book is a collection of stories about my experiences, as a man, in the creation and maintenance of a New Human. And given that she is awesome, I felt it only fair that I should share my wisdom with you, so that you too can have the best human possible. So whether you are a long-time parent, a new parent, a surprised parent, avoiding being a parent or just thinking about becoming a parent, I wish you all the best in your contribution to the continuation of the species. Three things every man should know before embarking on dadhood: When your partner is pregnant, never confuse 'big' with 'fat'. Use the pregnant wife card to your advantage. Sometimes I wished people would call me into a meeting just so I could say, 'Sorry . . . pregnant wife. Must go.' No questions asked. Once you have created a New Human you will need to schedule time together with your Old Human. (Never call her this out loud.)

Download or read book A Way Up written by Paula Engborg and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2023-05-04 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There’s a Seattle urban legend about something rare and unusual in the snow at 14,000 feet — not a Sasquatch but a booted, nude woman atop Mt. Rainier. This is the story behind the legend. Paula Engborg is an energetic, 41-year-old divorced mom in search of Prince Charming when one day she finds a new sport: The Climb. Paula has barely ascended a stepladder, so why the desire to climb mountains? Unlike other books about climbing, A WAY UP isn’t about the highest mountains, famous climbers, or exotic locations. Instead, it’s the experiences of the feisty author, who, in middle-aged, finds a new rush. Here, the mountains in the Pacific NW and rock walls in the Southwest come alive. You’ll feel the bitter cold, the rigours of training, and share Paula’s dream of making it to the top. Along the way this self-proclaimed “climb-aholic” defies the odds to become a member of Mountain Rescue, makes and breaks friends, and falls in love with Clint, a man with a penchant for motorcycle rallies. Paula’s story is a literal tale of hard knocks, told with warmth and unflinching detail.
Download or read book Moving Up Without Losing Your Way written by Jennifer M. Morton and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Upward mobility through the path of higher education has been an article of faith for generations of working-class, low-income, and immigrant college students. While we know this path usually entails financial sacrifices and hard work, very little attention has been paid to the deep personal compromises such students have to make as they enter worlds vastly different from their own. Measuring the true cost of higher education for those from disadvantaged backgrounds, Moving Up without Losing Your Way looks at the ethical dilemmas of upward mobility--the broken ties with family and friends, the severed connections with former communities, and the loss of identity--faced by students as they strive to earn a successful place in society"--Dust jacket.

Book excerpt: The first thought after any arrest is usually, how long will it take to get out? Whether in jail or prison, your sole focus is getting out. Recent statistics shows that three out of every four persons incarcerated always end up returning behind bars within the first three years of release. A large percentage of these people are from low-income communities where access to financial capital, education, and job opportunities are limited, and family ends up getting stuck in a deep cycle of poverty that they found extremely difficult to break out from. Arrested for crimes often sponsored by poverty and the dire economic conditions that defined them, they are taken through a criminal justice system that is far more interested in keeping them in the poverty-incarceration cycle than rehabilitating them and giving them a better chance at life. With no income and criminal history after release, they are unable to pay for food, housing, and health needs. And what happens eventually? They slip back into a life of crime, and the cycle continues. It is high time we nullified this poverty-incarceration two-feeder system. How? By dealing with the root, which is poverty. So how do you break the cycle of poverty? You may want to get out of jail or prison but are you ready to get out of poverty. How? The answers are found here in learning how to experience your own economic development post-incarceration. Do you feel stuck? Are you tired of going in and out of jail? Or are you an ex-offender who have found it difficult to progress because of barriers associated with your criminal history? This book is the clear road map to creating generational wealth and living the kind of life you deserve. This book is the guide to finding a way up not just a way out.

Download or read book Climb up Way up High written by Esther B. Jimenez and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climbing up, way up high is a process of surviving a struggle. It is an analogy of how a person struggles, suffers, and survives the dreadful illness called depression. This book is about getting away from the stigma attached to depression and developing the confidence that depression is treatable. This is a confession made by the author of her dim moments, her long years of suffering, and how she found herself climbing up, way up high, to search for inner healing. With the support of her family, her compliance to her psychiatric regimen, and her utmost and most fervent prayers, the climbing she did was a success. It would be a great relief to have this stigma removed.
