All the feelings trapped inside, this was my release, this was the place of safety when I ran away, this was the only place I could truly turn and find me, this is my heart and my soul. It never let me down even when life did. It was my happiness and sadness, my excitement and my depression. It held me in the dark night; it woke me and nurtured me all through the day. This is my past, present, and future, this is me.

Who’S Pulling My Strings?
Author: Mardi Kirkland
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 145259273X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
When Mardi Kirkland resigned from a corporate management career to start her own business, she told herself she was a macho woman who could accomplish anything. Suddenly instead, she was confronted with a far stronger belief about herself that threatened to sabotage her every move. While this awareness was shocking, she realized it had been running the show most of her life. While wanting to be an authentic person, she, instead, was consumed with thinking and saying what she thought others wanted to hear. She had no clue what being authentic looked like. Willing to do "whatever it takes," Mardi embarked on a personal journey to discover what had gotten her to this place, to heal her wounds, and create a new life based on self-love, acceptance, and joy. "Who's Pulling My Strings" takes the reader beyond theory and lists of things to do to change your life. It shows you what it will be like to take these life-changing steps, and what to do when obstacles seem to be blocking your path. As you travel with Mardi on her journey, you feel like she is also your companion on the expedition to your inner universe, understanding your fears, encouraging you to touch your core and find your heart. Mardi talks with you as if the two of you are sitting in your living room having an intimate conversation. KIRKUS REVIEW 2016-12-12 A woman seeks to free herself from the lingering effects of a tumultuous past in this debut memoir. When Kirkland confronted a change of career--from territory manager of a Fortune 100 company to beauty consultant with Mary Kay--she confided to a friend, "I can't fail...because then everyone will know I'm no good." It was a shocking revelation, and she began seeking answers that would help her achieve a sense of emotional wholeness. She first explored her childhood, during which she says her authoritarian parents taught her to fear a harsh God; she realized that this ultimately stifled her positive energy and convinced her she was "no good." She writes that these feelings led her into two failed marriages in which she felt "unloved and unlovable," and that they also motivated her to seek success as a way to cover up her insecurities. However, this book focuses less on her emotional trials and more on her recovery. Drawing on information from various workshops, books, and personal experiences, she details her coping strategies, such as studying her past and its consequences, reframing unhealthy thought processes, validating and exploring negative emotions, and learning to forgive others. One of the memoir's most appealing qualities is Kirkland's excitement as she shares successes in her healing process. The book could have been trimmed down, as it repeats many ideas in different chapters. Overall, though, it flows very easily, offering astute commentary and excellent imagery. Readers may find that not all the coping strategies resonate with them, particularly the unconventional ones, such as having conversations with different parts of oneself or considering how one's birth story affected one's later life. However, there are many insightful ideas that readers may find beneficial, such as using criticism to learn about oneself and finding compassion for wrongdoers by considering their upbringings. Although Kirkland's specific background is unique, the principles she shares are universal and worth a read. An engaging collection of coping principles for soul-searching readers.

I Am Who I Am
Author: Binu Edathumparambil
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532612974
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
The mystery of God has fascinated people of all generations. Based on what has been revealed, people have tried to define, describe, and depict him in the way they deemed fit. But he has proved himself to be bigger than all human classifications. He continues to reveal himself to us in ways that we sometimes least expect. He becomes so small that we can understand and experience him according to who we are and what capacity we have. But he is so big that he is beyond all our imaginations and fantasies. Author Binu Edathumparambil considers God as an inevitable component in the triangular model of life that he suggests for our lives. A healthy and happy life, according to Edathumparambil, is one that is lived in communion with God and others. This book specifically focuses on the mystery of God and his place in the triangular model of life. It is about what our forefathers experienced in the past and what we experience today. It is also about how our understandings and experiences of God shape our lives as individuals and communities.

Pages : 284
Book Description
It’s Ok to Tell started out as diaries to help me get through this turmoil. You can see how I was not able to express so well at the start of the process but was able to develop this ability as time passed by. I have decided to get it published in order to help and encourage others to speak out and to show how difficult it is to do so so that they, too, can live life. I hope to have shown that it is OK to tell and that it is OK to feel the disastrous effects, but you can get through it eventually. It never does go away, but it does get easier to live with.
