Download or read book It Never Ends written by Nan Gefen and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It Never Ends: Mothering Middle-Aged Daughters explores the complex challenges and unexpected rewards of aging mothers in their relationships with their midlife daughters. Based on interviews with women between 65 and 85, it illuminates issues of closeness, distance, longing, and need that arise. Mothers speak openly about the ongoing effects of the past on the present, the cultural, familial, and interpersonal conflicts that remain, and the varied and often invisible ways they continue mothering. As mothers enter the last decades of their lives, their roles with their daughters often shift and change in complicated ways. Now that they are no longer central in caring for them as they once were, many experience a recalibrating of authority, autonomy, and independence. Their courage is apparent as they reflect on the mistakes they’ve made, acknowledge their regrets, and search to come to terms with their relationships as they now are.

Download or read book Lilith s Daughters written by Nilüfer Bilge Aytekin and published by Edenacademia Mouseion. This book was released on 2020-10-11 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I believe that the stories we tell have written somewhere in the universe many times ago, and transferred to humans’ hearts by people connecting with the universe with their hearts in their own unique way. Some of them transferred these stories with musical notes, some of them used words told in a scene, and some of them with dance or texts. Since when I have connected with my heart and discover what it is, my way is to write what was born into my heart. This story I told you is a fiction about the woman within us, whom we have not taken out of the darkness, courageously confronting the darkness with an intrinsic call, finding herself and leaving her rooted and settled fears and coming to the stage of her own life. This fiction which is fed by mythological characters tells us about one of Lilith’s and Samael’s daughters called Ophelia. In some beliefs, it is believed that her mother, Lilith has been created before Eve and when she wanted to equal rights with Adam, she was fired from the paradise. On that day, to this day, she had been excluded from every mythology, became hated and had been sentenced to darkness with Samael in our collective fears. Ophelia was born in the darkness and had no any idea about lights, she just could see world’s shimmer too far away. She faces with her darkness by an intrinsic call, ascents to the light on her own life stage and courageously discovers what she is, what is unique to her. She goes on a journey with her heart, leaving everything behind, all her labels, which she does not know where she is going, by following the craving and quest in her heart from the darkness, where all the fears imposed on her mother, the woman who demands to take place in the stage of life with her own light. The journey confronts Ophelia the devils inside her, her fears, her longings that she dares and gives up, her injustices to herself, all the fearful lives she has turned down, covered, and hidden. And Ophelia continues to look into her heart, although her fears, despite her own demons. At the end, Ophelia meet with hidden things which into her deepest of heart and things what she was. And she comes out to her own life scene, taking care of herself, her soul, her heart, her abilities, all the values that make her that, and leaving all her fears, worries, judgments. Darkness is an area that we often fear, not dare to get into and stay away from. Whereas we continue to look at all the fears which we don't want to see, we discover all our treasures those we cover in darkness. I believe that a world full of happy people will be created when we bring our talents in the dark to the light and make them visible, when we let go of our fears and give ourselves the chance to be ourselves and become our true authentic self. This story is dedicated to all women who bravely took place on their own stage, excluded, harmed, killed throughout history, to Hypatia and to my own soul. The brightest, the most attractive pearls are in the deepest seas. As long as you dare to look at your heart, to find it...

Download or read book The Case for Lilith written by Mark Biggs and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legend of Lilith is undoubtedly the most fantastic of all ancient rabbinic myths. According to lore, God created her from dust alongside Adam. However, Lilith was a failed mate. She was not animated by the breath of God like Adam. Rather she was preemptively animated by a Satanic mist which erupted from the ground. Lilith rebelled against Adam and became the infamous Serpent who deceived Eve and caused Adam to fall. Therefore, God established eternal enmity between the Serpent Lilith and Eve and between their seed. Lilith's seed would bruise the heel of Eve's promised seed, Messiah, but Eve's seed would revive to crush Lilith’s head. This book reveals 23 Biblical evidences that prompted ancient rabbis to conclude the various elements of Lilith's legend. It also explains how her legend is completely consistent with traditional Judaic / Christian teachings on the Bible's redemptive message. Her legend solves many ancient Biblical mysteries, such as why the Serpent bears seed like Eve.

Download or read book Russ Daughters written by Mark Russ Federman and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The former owner/proprietor of the beloved appetizing store on Manhattan’s Lower East Side tells the delightful, mouthwatering story of an immigrant family’s journey from a pushcart in 1907 to “New York’s most hallowed shrine to the miracle of caviar, smoked salmon, ethereal herring, and silken chopped liver” (The New York Times Magazine). When Joel Russ started peddling herring from a barrel shortly after his arrival in America from Poland, he could not have imagined that he was giving birth to a gastronomic legend. Here is the story of this “Louvre of lox” (The Sunday Times, London): its humble beginnings, the struggle to keep it going during the Great Depression, the food rationing of World War II, the passing of the torch to the next generation as the flight from the Lower East Side was beginning, the heartbreaking years of neighborhood blight, and the almost miraculous renaissance of an area from which hundreds of other family-owned stores had fled. Filled with delightful anecdotes about how a ferociously hardworking family turned a passion for selling perfectly smoked and pickled fish into an institution with a devoted national clientele, Mark Russ Federman’s reminiscences combine a heartwarming and triumphant immigrant saga with a panoramic history of twentieth-century New York, a meditation on the creation and selling of gourmet food by a family that has mastered this art, and an enchanting behind-the-scenes look at four generations of people who are just a little bit crazy on the subject of fish.
