During those years Worsham is caregiver, first for her mother and then for her celibate friend Teeny. After the deaths of both of these important women in her life, she finally begins the terrifying journey of coming out.

He has excelled in four careers, including twenty years in commercial real estate, twenty-two years in elected offices, thirteen years in the tourism industry, and is now in his thirtieth year of association management. In 1969, Sam Massell was elected the first Jewish mayor of Atlanta, Georgia. Since leaving office he has been inducted into numerous \"Halls of Fame\" for service in fields of business, government, civil rights, hospitality, and influence. When a young boy, and self-described \"dead-end kid,\" Massell searched for identity between the mischief of his only two friends (one who ended up in juvenile detention) and operating his own oversized Coca-Cola stand. Later, he pioneered professionally as a specialist in building medical offices, struggled between pride and prejudice for being Jewish, and as a liberal Democrat, organized and managed a nonprofit civic group among one hundred (mostly) conservative Republican business leaders. Politically, Massell changed Atlanta's City elections to nonpartisan, created Atlanta's Urban Design Commission, allowed Muhammad Ali to fight when fifty other cities would not, established Metro Atlanta's mass transit system (MARTA), appointed the first woman to the City Council, named the first blacks to City department head status, and developed the Omni, Atlanta's first enclosed arena. Most importantly, his legacy will be his peaceful guidance of Atlanta (then population 500,000) through its transformation from an all-white power structure to a black city government.

Within the hour, as family gathered, baffling events occurred. A young stranger, clothed in white, visible only to Julie, walked slow circles in the yard. A new vase of lilies was on the piano, though no one had placed it there. Three weeks later, friends presented a memorial concert, calling it Bragg Jam, and the brothers' legacy was born. Soon afterward, their sister Anne phoned her mother to say she was with a client who claimed to hear her brothers' voices repeating, \"Talk to my mama!\" Caution melted with Julie's first compelling exchange with this woman, who later visited the Bragg home to channel spirits - not only of sons, but of ancestors who spoke of gifts and solutions to earlier mysteries. Olivia's readings required decoding, but each hopeful message proved that spirits carry loving, surprising memories into the afterlife with them - this was profoundly comforting. The Braggs realized that by getting on with their sadly changed lives, the family would honor their sons and eventually survive grief.

Even his dorm room had once been used by wounded Confederate soldiers during the Civil War. His fellow seminarians were almost all older; soldiers who'd fought in World War II, pacifists who'd chosen to resist fighting. Young and alone, it would take the friendships of Walter McCall, Horace Whitaker and the mentorship of Rev. J. Pius Barbour to begin to grow in this new environment. During seminary, ML was a prankster and a late-night, chain-smoking pool player who fell in love with a white woman while facing discrimination from students and the surrounding area of Chester, Pennsylvania. In class, ML performed well, but started a habit of plagiarizing that extended throughout his academic career. Between the years 1948-1951, ML King Jr. delivered dozens of sermons around the Philadelphia area, had a gun pointed at him twice, and eventually became student body president. In the end, his experiences at Crozer shaped him into a man ready to take on even greater challenges. THE SEMINARIAN is the first full-length narrative and definitive account of MLK’s years as a divinity student at Crozer Theological Seminary.

Jay’s proud of the claim that he has no intention whatsoever of “growing up.” He’s just getting started.

To his surprise, he discovered there was a lack of proper nutrition, recovery, and boost products for daily runners. Additionally, he was unhappy and unfulfilled with his “Marketing” work for companies and brands that didn’t impact people’s lives. He faced a major personal crossroad. Seeing a demand for running-targeted personal nutrition, 6AMRun.com was founded. The initial product was a unique all-in-one formula combining hydration, vitamins, and energy for recovery. In less than three years, it grew to helping one million runners, and generating millions in sales revenue.

Circumstances in my life, from childhood to early adulthood, generated a host of highly unusual real-life stories, ranging from the humorous to the tragic.  Several of these were woven into the fabric of then-current events that made their mark in history.

Born and raised in Utah, Jenny Lowe got married at the age of nineteen. The marriage ended in divorce, and at thirty years old, she married again. Emotionally and financially ready to start a family and with her biological clock ticking, the couple decides to have a child. After months of trying without success, they seek the help of fertility specialists. What follows is a series of unsuccessful attempts to conceive and the discovery that she has ovarian cancer. This book lets the reader accompany her on her emotional journey. Beginning with Chapter 4, QR codes are provided that will direct readers to photos and videos of the topics discussed to tell a story of hope and courage that will surely touch your heart. Jenny Lowe’s Saved By Hope is a must-read for couples struggling to get pregnant. The author laments the fact that there is a stigma surrounding infertility, so much so that it’s not a topic discussed openly. This book does a great job of creating a compassionate guide to overcoming the humiliation of infertility. With profound honesty, she relates the fear, pain, grief, and hope that springs to life, only to be taken away a few days later. The writing style is casual and informative, with visuals to make the experience more intense. The book opens with Emily Dickinson’s “hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul,” setting the tone for this well-written and perceptive memoir that should provide comfort to those who need it the most.

For Michèle Misino de Luca, life began as a series of dark, traumatic episodes and continued as deeply challenging events beset her incessantly throughout her youth. Yet somehow, she rises to value life, viewing it as a miracle. She was five years old when she first felt completely on her own, and although food, clothing and a warm bed were provided, it seemed her survival was not ensured. Every night, when she was handed those raisins, there was a moment of intimacy in her soul. She ate those raisins ever so slowly, savoring not just their sweetness, but the sweetness of a few moments when everything was alright. Imagine being a child seemingly dropped into a dark hole. Nothing around you but strangers. Nothing familiar. Throughout this memoir, readers will gain a true understanding of loneliness and despair, while receiving the gratifying reminder that you do not have to succumb and be formed by your painful experiences. You can become who you say you are, and who you say you are can be based on what you value most. Our author declares herself fully alive and becomes so alive with dignity, wonder and joy. In her groundbreaking and raw story, Michèle Misino de Luca had the tenacity not only to survive, but to thrive. Unwilling to surrender to victimhood, she had to change. She had to find joy. It certainly was not easy, but in a world by herself, she created her own silver lining. This is a memoir about celebrating the fullness of life, written by a truly extraordinary person. This is a story about seeking and accepting the handful of raisins in an otherwise empty room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n   \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp class=\"Normal3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublishers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: Dartfrog Books\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp class=\"Normal3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCopyright\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: 2021 Michèle Misino de Luca\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp class=\"Normal3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRunning Time\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: 04:35:49\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp class=\"Normal3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eISBN\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: 9781953598837\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LINDIE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47324158918807,"sku":"9781953598837","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/9540\/8023\/files\/9781953598837__22385.jpg?v=1773524587"},{"product_id":"not-enough-time-my-poetry-book","title":"Not Enough Time - My Poetry Book","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp class=\"Normal1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTitle Synopsis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp class=\"Normal1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNot Enough Time\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is written in the form of a mini bio in a poetry form.

In this new book, McKee takes readers on a journey through his childhood, adolescence, and teenage years from the mid-40s to the mid-60s, in the small, then industrially-polluted town of Elmira, Ontario, Canada-one of the centers of production for Agent Orange during the Vietnam War. McKee's vivid descriptions, dialogue are a study of how a young boy learned to play and work, fish and hunt, avoid dangers, cope with death, deal with bullies, and to build or restore \"escape\" vehicles. You may laugh out loud as the author recalls his exploding hormones, attraction to girls, rebellion against authority, and survival of 1960s' \"rock \u0026amp; roll\" culture-emerging on the other side as a youth leader. After leaving Elmira, McKee describes his intensely searching university years, trying to decide which career path to follow. Except for a revealing postscript, the story ends when he accepts a volunteer teaching position on the island of Borneo, in Southeast Asia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor Bio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eNeill McKee is a creative nonfiction writer based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
