Download or read book When The Stars Fall From The Sky written by Ignacio De Luna and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-10-06 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ignacio started writing as a way to express what he was experiencing. He grew up in sunny Southern California. At a young age he lived with his parents and siblings in Baldwin Park, Ca. As a teenager they all moved to West Covina where he went to Workman High School and had friends that were close enough to inspire him. Starting at a young age there were many words written with a chance to be cherished by close friends and family. By placing himself in the moment and absorbing the feelings around him, he has captured those things that many people think and wish to express but can't find a way. There is true emotion within each word and phrase. There are pictures that develop in the mind to represent what each word is describing. A vision of words that can be read and felt with the not only the mind but the heart.

Book excerpt: NOW Living the Dream: A Tale of Surviving Cancer by Daksha Trivedi is a testament to her brave journey through an aggressive cancer which brings to light the power of hope as she learns to accept uncertainty. Daksha's story of endurance began long before receiving an unexpected and a devastating diagnosis of cancer in her lower oesophagus. She had hardly come to terms with the painful loss of her twin brother from advanced cancer only six months earlier but finds courage to bring solace to her elderly widowed mother who had lost both her beloved sons. Her journey takes us through her diagnosis, the challenges of treatment decisions and recovery from a life- threatening oesophagectomy. Her deeply moving story, whilst that of survival embraces the reality of her condition and conveys profound themes of relentless determination and a commitment to positive strategies at a time of pain and suffering. This book highlights the patient's and the family's distress and encourages health care professionals to find ways of engaging with people from different cultures, especially where there is a family history of cancer. Whilst Daksha faced numerous challenges during a long and a difficult period of recovery, she, together with her family found ways of getting her life back. Her remarkable story is an inspiration to patients, families and practitioners and provides a valuable insight into finding courage to cope with adversity. It acknowledges a dearth of research evidence on oesophageal cancer, though great strides are being made to detect early conditions that can increase a person's risk of developing cancer. This poignant and human story draws together everything Daksha and her family have realised about living well in the moment. She also discovers the true meaning of faith, love and hope as she begins to talk about cancer. In her honest and inspiring account, she shares her learnings to live a life full of purpose, being deeply grateful for the gift of time. This book was completed in the shadow of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic. The author intends to donate proceeds from the sale of this book to appropriate charities.

Download or read book Between the Grey Poetry and Prose written by James Compton and published by Writers Republic LLC. This book was released on 2020-07-31 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the Grey is a collection of poems written to make people think in more than one way about a given aspect of their life, or someone else’s. Some may read a poem within this book and see a light that they would love to strive to possess, while others may read the same line and see a distress signal needing to be fought. It is all about the interpretation to the reader, and I challenge people to try and see the opposite perspective as well. Life isn’t black and white, it is grey, but I challenge this as well, I believe there is more to it then the grey area, and that lies in finding what others see and taking a look into why their conceptions of the world are the way they are.

This book was released on 2007-04-30 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two names reigned supreme in London's underworld in the sixties - Ronnie and Reggie Kray; and it wasn't until 1969 that the twins went down at Brixton Prison for murder. I was only seventeen, on remand up in Risley, Warrington, for nicking a furniture lorry. Most of the lads in there had newspaper photos of the Krays stuck up on their cell walls. They were the cream of the criminal crop, and that's why I took such an interest in 'em. Once I was put away, it wasn't long before I got to meet them, and over the next 29 years I got closer to the Krays than any self-proclaimed henchman, any autograph hunter. As their trusted friend they let me in on it all - no holds barred behind bars! Since Ronnie and Reggie died, all I've heard is a load of bollocks! 'Reggie shot my cat; Ronnie stabbed my uncle Bert 75 times; Reggie ran over my hamster; I'm Ronnie's son, I'm Reggie's daughter.' Gutless maggots spreading rumours with their sham stories for sale. The shameless rats. Well now the twins are gone and I can talk. And let me tell you, I've got a lot to say and all the time in the world to say it. No bollocks. No silly stories. Just the facts about the time I spent doing porridge with the Krays.
Download or read book The Bay of Dreams written by Linda Cassidy Lewis and published by Two-Four-Six Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-10 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "She missed the ocean with its dual nature of calm and chaos. It called to her in voices of both lover and adversary. Always, she felt that if she could sit beside it still enough, long enough, she might solve mysteries. About life. About herself." The Brevity of Roses explores the interwoven lives of three damaged people who are each offered a chance to heal—if they can banish the ghosts of their pasts. Meredith Dahlberg-Lang hides behind a façade. In public, she's a wealthy socialite. In private, she's a lonely woman with a heart imprisoned by guilt after her husband's death. But she can't deny the longing she feels when a younger man seeks her attention. Jalal Vaziri, after years of trying in vain to win his father's approval, defies him by pursuing a new career. When he meets the woman of his dreams, his satisfaction is complete, but fate challenges his plan for a blissful future. Renee Marshall, matured beyond her years by a hard life, heads for a fresh start in Los Angeles. But when car trouble detours her to a village on the central coast, she enters the life of a man whose fierce denial of the need to be loved matches her own. An Illusion of Trust is the story of Renee Marshall, a young woman who discovers that having her dreams come true can't erase her nightmare past. When Renee married Jalal Vaziri, she got all the love and security she craved. But now, with a baby on the way, she has to leave her perfect seaside cottage to move into the mansion Jalal shared with his beloved first wife—a woman Renee fears she'll never completely replace. Unsettled by changes the relocation makes to her idyllic life, she allows her dark memories to resurface and feed her insecurity. Under the threat of losing all she treasures, Renee must confront her past and learn to trust love in this poignant exploration of marriage and motherhood.
