Download or read book The Roads We Travel written by Diane Valerie Burgess and published by novum pro Verlag. This book was released on 2023-08-10 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roads We Travel is a very personal collection of poems which serve to illustrate the small moments in life which are seemingly insignificant but which can hold so much meaning, poignancy and sentiment. Each poem offers a voyeuristic peep into a private microcosm created by memory and reflection. In her gentle scrutiny of human nature, Diane Valerie Burgess explores joy, sadness, fallibility, loss – the spectrum of human emotion mirrored in nature, in the transcendent, in ourselves. Burgess' poems are both nostalgic and urgently relevant, addressing past experiences and exploring contemporary subjects. Sometimes humorous, sometimes bittersweet, sometimes a brave but tender contemplation of grief and fear, each subject is handled with care and beautifully illustrated with words.
Download or read book The Roads We Have Traveled written by Richard L. White and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-06-18 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roads We Have Traveled, Volume 2, Richard L. White collects his travel writings beginning with Kerstin’s and his trip to Mexico in April 2009 and concluding with a family vacation in Boulder, Colorado in December 2019 at the very end of the decade. While the coronavirus pandemic brought a sudden halt to the Whites’ travels, it was the perfect time to pause, reflect, and bring this collection together. Volume 2 complements the first volume, published in 2009 and covering nearly four decades of travel (1970-2008). The 44 travelogues in Volume 2 include Richard’s recollections and observations of visits to a number of foreign countries and states, almost always in the company of Kerstin. While she primarily documents their travels through photography, Richard is always capturing an experience, a moment, an image, or a feeling through the written word. This is also the story of the personal growth of Richard, Kerstin, and their children Janine, Lisa, and Windy, as they complete their graduate and undergraduate degrees and forge new lives and new purposes in the broad field of education in New York, Miami, Chicago, San Francisco, and London. Throughout the book, Richard demonstrates his love of travel, writing, observation, history, culture, and memory, passions that he shares with Kerstin and has passed on to his children.
Download or read book The Roads We Travelled written by Dr. Tony Carvajal and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roads We Traveled begins with the chronological journeys that families took in a legendary Latino barrio. It is an idyllic locale that for one brief historical moment brought meaning and even glamorous ambience to the people involved in its story. The story is burrowed in a location with high idealsSan Felipe High School, which resides in a small town in Texas. It was a place bursting with excitement, purpose, and culture, where students from an impoverished community came together to celebrate learning and wisdom, which was inspired by outstanding teachers. The narrative illustrates the various social and environmental barriers students were able to overcome. Because of this, students found a silver lining to their clouds. This silver lining brilliantly outlines where they are today, fifty-five years later, after they went out into society to become architects of their new communities. This book will resonate to Hispanic and other Latino students who have been encouraged and challenged to stay in school, graduate, and pursue higher education. It will also be compelling to all educators who have struggled to find ways to inspire students to believe that education is indeed a stairway to success. Even though The Roads We Traveled is a success story of children who grew up in poverty in a Texas barrio, it is ultimately a universal story about family, friendships, success, failures, disappointments, and setbacks. Significantly, the story is definitely about the powerful importance of superior teachers who are on the frontline to inspire their students to pursue their dreams to the very end.
Download or read book Along These Roads We Travel written by Joann Rita Vega and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along These Roads We Travel, and each one of us walks on a different path towards learning, suffering, and happiness. . . These roads unite and confound themselves as we advance through life. Our job as a people is to enjoy and assist those, who in one form or another, have entered our road, without losing sight of our own and destination. This book is a multicultural and intimate overview of humanity’s intrinsically existential struggles and expectations today, as well as of our responsibilities toward each other and our planet. These words are inner reflections that include a marked observation of the inequalities and suffering present on this level of life manifestation, and for which we must claim responsibility. Through inner contemplation of our happy moments and devotion to a higher energy, we are able to find the interconnection that Carl Jung referred to as Synchronicity, which, hopefully, will bring us to the discovery of our true Identities and possibilities as human race – capable for caring for and accepting each other.

Book excerpt: Enter a simpler way of living by unhurrying your heart, embracing the relaxed rhythms of nature, and discovering the meaningful gift of growing slow. We long to make a break from the fast pace of life, but if we're honest, we're afraid of what we'll miss if we do. Yet when going big and hustling hard leaves us stressed, empty, and out of sorts, perhaps this can be our cue to step into a far more satisfying, sustainable pace. In this crafted, inspiring read, beloved author Jennifer Dukes Lee offers a path to unhurried living by returning to the rhythm of the land and learning the ancient art of Growing Slow. Jennifer was once at breaking point herself, and tells her story of rude awakening to the ways her chosen lifestyle of running hard, scaling fast, and the neverending chase for results was taking a toll on her body, heart, and soul. But when she finally gave herself permission to believe it takes time to grow good things, she found a new kind of freedom. With eloquent truths and vivid storytelling, Jennifer reflects on the lessons she learned from living on her fifth-generation family farm and the insights she gathered from the purposeful yet never rushed life of Christ. Growing Slow charts a path out of the pressures of bigger, harder, faster, and into a more rooted way of living where the growth of good things is deep and lasting. Following the rhythms of the natural growing season, Growing Slow will help you: Find the true relief that comes when you stop running and start resting in Jesus Learn practices for unhurrying your heart and mind every day Let go of the pressure and embrace the small, good things already bearing fruit in your life And engage slow growth through reflection prompts and simple application steps

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a masterpiece of American travel writing, Blue Highways is an unforgettable journey along our nation's backroads. William Least Heat-Moon set out with little more than the need to put home behind him and a sense of curiosity about "those little towns that get on the map -- if they get on at all -- only because some cartographer has a blank space to fill: Remote, Oregon; Simplicity, Virginia; New Freedom, Pennsylvania; New Hope, Tennessee; Why, Arizona; Whynot, Mississippi." His adventures, his discoveries, and his recollections of the extraordinary people he encountered along the way amount to a revelation of the true American experience.
