Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Elusive Soulmate takes a lively and light-hearted look at that powerful drive familiar to us all – the yearning to find that one Special Person who will make our life complete. It blends fiction with spirituality in a charming story about finding a soulmate. Thirty-year-old Jenny, who has always considered herself to be anything but a romantic and who is determinedly resistant to any concept of reincarnation and destiny and All That Stuff, has a rude awakening during a Rachmananinov concert at the Festival Hall. By some strange alchemy, the Second Piano Concerto throws her off balance by unleashing her inner romantic and driving her on an almost obsessive quest to find The One. After years of fruitless searching, and as her 40th birthday looms, Jenny is informed by a psychic that the elusive soulmate does indeed exist, that his name is Dominic and that she will find him within a fortnight by looking ‘closer to home’. Jenny applies herself to the exasperating task of trying to uncover which of the various men in her life have that essential Dominic-connection. In the process, she is forced to reconnect with past lives and loves in order to acknowledge the Truth… The Elusive Soulmate is laced with mystical truths which are presented with such lightness of touch that the reader absorbs them effortlessly as the fairytale unfolds. The book will appeal to readers who already have an interest in spirituality and reincarnation and anyone looking for a bit of feel-good escapism.

Download or read book Activists under 30 written by Shirley R. Steinberg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book is divided into two sections. The first section highlights specific international youth activists, their biographies, work, and accomplishments. The second section is a collection of work by youth, who address their own activism, goals, identities, and needs. Commentaries by teachers, community workers, and facilitators compliment the entries, creating a unique, intergenerational and multi-faceted volume. The book will serve to fill a gap in teacher education, highlighting and listening to youth, themselves, who, the editor, contends, should be intimately involved in their own education and futures. A new model for teacher education, this book allows teachers to understand that youth must have, and demand, a voice in the determination of their lives and futures. Previous work with youth tends to “deal with them” as a problem to be solved, a group to be managed. This book insists that youth are viable citizens and create a voice which is heard internationally. Activists under 30 is the first book of its kind, to be addressed to youth, teachers, parents, and activists. It reminds us that youth are our most valuable resource, and insists we incorporate them, invite them, and listen to them.

Download or read book Fostered Adult Children Together On The Bridge To Healing Will we ever get over it written by Carol Lucas and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-07-09 with total page 541 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carol Lucas is proud to present this unique book to people with very unique issues – former foster children. It is her desire that hope for them will be found in the pages of this book. FACT (Fostered Adult Children Together) is a support group for former foster children. It is based on Ten Stepping Stones and the Bridge to Healing. Will we ever get over it? That question is what this book is all about. The stories that the author and other former foster children shared in this book should help answer that question, for themselves and other former, current, and future fostering children. Although there are only sixty-one stories in this book, there could be millions. Those stories as a voice to the unheard millions. The purpose of the foster care system is to provide a safe haven for children without one, helping them to cross the bridge from foster care to aging out, but sadly the bridge leads to nowhere. Many former foster children end up homeless, dumpster diving for food, on drugs, incarcerated, at worst in body bags, at best, living on the fringes of life.

Download or read book Decolonizing Law written by Sujith Xavier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together Indigenous, Third World and Settler perspectives on the theory and practice of decolonizing law. Colonialism, imperialism, and settler colonialism continue to affect the lives of racialized communities and Indigenous Peoples around the world. Law, in its many iterations, has played an active role in the dispossession and disenfranchisement of colonized peoples. Law and its various institutions are the means by which colonial, imperial, and settler colonial programs and policies continue to be reinforced and sustained. There are, however, recent and historical examples in which law has played a significant role in dismantling colonial and imperial structures set up during the process of colonization. This book combines usually distinct Indigenous, Third World and Settler perspectives in order to take up the effort of decolonizing law: both in practice and in the concern to distance and to liberate the foundational theories of legal knowledge and academic engagement from the manifestations of colonialism, imperialism and settler colonialism. Including work by scholars from the Global South and North, this book will be of interest to academics, students and others interested in the legacy of colonial and settler law, and its overcoming.
