Download or read book When I Am 21 written by Louis Mazzullo and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I Am 21 is an attempt to capture the spirit of the students with whom I worked in residential placement. The student papers are filled with hope and despair, sadness and happiness, poignancy, honesty, and deep longing. My hope is that this book will contribute to efforts towards working with these students to provide them with what they need, a top-quality education that offers academic pursuits, and especially for the majority of students, vocational training and interpersonal skills as essential parts of the curriculum. ?It is impossible to look at these student wishes and not be impressed by the desire to work. Work is the basis of community. It involves the giving and taking essential to human transactions, the fulfillment of wants and needs, the reciprocity of rights and responsibilities, and the culmination - hopefully - of an educational process that allows students to identify their interests and skills and to choose a job suitably commensurate with such.? (page 49). ?I find most noteworthy those wishes that refer to personal virtues (?be brave?, ?will listen?, ?to still pray?) and those that refer to a world outside of and bigger than ourselves (?a world without violence?, ?peace on earth?, ?help younger children to read?, ?everyone will stop killing animals?, ?will help the needy?).? (page 146) ?Peer relations are generally the greatest single indicator both of social/emotional health and happiness/sadness for individuals throughout society. Peer relations is the arena wherein questions of autonomy, maturity, morality, virtue and interpersonal satisfaction come together. Love interests encompass the spiritual, the emotional and the physical.? (page 197)

Download or read book They Are All My Family written by John Riordan and published by Public Affairs. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the chaotic final days of the Vietnam War in April 1975, as Americans fled and their Vietnamese allies and employees prepared for the worst, John Riordan, a young banker, the assistant manager of Citibank's Saigon branch succeeded in rescuing 106 Vietnamese. They were his 33 Vietnamese staff members and their families. Unable to secure exit papers for the employees, Citibank ordered Riordan to leave the country alone. Safe in Hong Kong, Riordan could not imagine leaving behind his employees and defied instructions from his superiors not to return to Saigon. But once he did make it back on the last commercial flight, his actions were daring and ingenious. In They Are All My Family, Riordan recounts in a vivid narrative how the escape was organized and carried out. He assembled all 106 of the Vietnamese into his villa and a neighboring one telling them to keep their locations secret. A CIA contact told him that only dependents of Americans were allowed to escape on U.S. military cargo planes. Riordan repeatedly went to the processing area and claimed groups of the Vietnamese as his relatives—his wife and children—somehow managing to get through the bureaucratic shambles. Eventually he went back and forth to the airport 15 times. Filling out papers in groups, using false documents and even witnessing a bribe, he succeeded in rescuing the group. For the last round, the group drove the bank van to the airport pretending they had bundles of money to transport. Miraculously, all these gambits worked and the Citibank group made it to Guam and the Philippines, eventually reuniting at Camp Pendleton in California. All the while, Riordan assumed he had been fired for ignoring orders but once the mission was completed, his extraordinary commitment and resourcefulness won him widespread praise from senior officials. Citibank spent over a million dollars just to resettle the Vietnamese, offering jobs to some of the staff and their spouses. Decades later, Riordan, who has stayed in touch with the Vietnamese, has located and reconnected with all of them in order to share their accounts of those frantic days and the derring-do it took to get them out to safety. John Riordan is now a farmer in Wisconsin. His story of those fateful days decades ago and their aftermath provides a compelling insight to the courage of individuals when all seemed lost. For all the tragedy of the Vietnam War, this saga is an uplifting counterpoint and a compelling piece of micro-history.
Download or read book Even My Family written by Janet Wray Gorman and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2000-04-11 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even My Family is the story of a young woman set on the path determined by her familys heritage, and her struggle to find her own path and follow it. Although the story takes place just prior to the Civil War, her challenges are timeless. Every woman today can relate to Elizabeths dilemma. The heroine, Elizabeth Randolph, must deal with a family that does not communicate, that has expectations for her life which are not her own, and that is devoid of unconditional love. Her family members are lonely, isolated individuals joined by the accident of birth and held together by community expectations. Elizabeths spiritual family and the man in her life are at odds with her familys ideals. After facing numerous obstacles, Elizabeth turns from her familys path to her own to enable joy and love to enter her life. This entertaining story allows the reader to witness what transpires before an individual sees the reality of the world around her and then what transpires before she turns off the well traveled pathway and onto her own. How often do we bang our heads against the wall before we turn and see an open window? Born in 1840 to image conscious plantation owners, Elizabeth tries and continually fails to fulfill her parents' expectations. Her love for freedom and her infant bonding with strong, loving slave women keep her from turning away from herself and the slave community. Elizabeths deep sadness contrasts greatly with the beauty, comfort, and ease of her life. Coming of age during a politically unstable period, Elizabeth wants to escape from the traditional Southern woman's life, but her family supports the Southern System. Elizabeth's travels stretch from Richmond, Virginia to Newport, Rhode Island and Boston, Massachusetts. The men in her life include the perfect Southern gentleman, the established Boston Brahmin, and a young freethinking architect. Not until Elizabeth is faced with life and death decisions does she come to terms with her destiny.
