Book Description
We all live lives of dependence in one way or another. Joree Harbeck was born thirteen weeks premature. She suffered severe seizures hours after birth that caused cerebral palsy and significant damage to her brain. Her prognosis was pessimistic. Love goes both ways when we are willing to admit there is nothing we can do to determine the outcome of our lives, and we surrender to the truth that we are all dependent on others to assist us in traveling this road of life. Joy comes when we allow others to love and care for us deeply and when we do the same in return.

Look Both Ways
Author: Debbie Millman
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 144031943X
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
In Look Both Ways, respected branding consultant and design community leader Debbie Millman has constructed a series of essays that examine the close relationship between design and everyday life. You'll find inspiration on every page as you meander through illuminating observations that are both personal and universal. Each beautifully illustrated essay reveals the magic - and wonder - of the often unseen world around us. Excerpt from "Look Both Ways" It occurred to me, as I stood there, that I could simultaneously, vividly look both ways - backward and forward, in time - at once. I remembered longing to know what was coming, who I would become and how. And I suddenly saw it all over again in front of me. The light was exactly the same, and as the sun fell and the summer shadows slivered against the elegant, lean, concrete towers in the distance, I recognized the smell of the warm air, the precise pink and grey of the coming dusk and the mysterious melancholy and joy of both knowing and not-knowing, and the continuity that occurs when both collide.—Debbie Millman

Due to the speech impediment, life was too difficult for him. When he left, he made lots of commitments to his family. In the start, he felt that everything was going to be easy, to the point where he was going to maintain a reasonable life right away. Shortly, he discovered that things didn't work like that in the United States of America. Some types of items ought to be done sooner before you could get yourself situated. At foremost, he was living with his brother J, but things didn't work out nicely between the two of them. In a brief time in the country, he was out of his brother's home with no place to stay. Luckily, an elder companion of his promised him to stay in his place until he gets his life in order. Therefore, he jumped back and forth from position to position until he chose to go to school to construct some modifications in his life. He attempted to go to school, but it didn't work out for him. It wasn't until he met a professor who used to teach French at a university in Paris who showed him some methods about how to write essays in the English language. Ever since, he observed he was doing very well in school. He managed to get his associate's in business entrepreneurship but then quit going to college. After a few years, he met his wife, and they had three boys together and bought a house. Due to union obligations and taking care of the children, he couldn't afford to go back to school. His life was focused on the children's education and work. After the children graduated from college and had successful careers, he decided to go back to school to finish what he started. After fifty-plus years during COVID time, he went back to school and managed to graduate with honors. He went to Purdue University Global, where he got himself a degree in business administration. He was an exceptional student too. Information in the book showcased that life went both ways. At certain times in life, there would be no way out; other times; things would be floating smoothly. At first, the future didn't appear very good for the young man in this country. With hard work, commitment, and the support of a few good people, he managed to adjust certain things and, at last, create an exorbitant life for himself. Things were challenging at the beginning, but he turned a bunch of negative stuff into positive ones. Nevertheless, I think that we need good tutors to teach us about the facts of life. In that case, our parents are the ideal ones. After all, I believe very strongly that we should listen to our mom and dad more often because their words contain valuable lessons to teach us.

Creating Optimal Relationships
Author: Kathryn Elliott
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1442238119
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
Recent relationship science research finds that intense, satisfying romantic love is a real phenomenon occurring in couples. Creating Optimal Relationships: Use of the Voltage Concept with Couples provides the field of marriage and family therapy with the first model for assisting couples to sustain bliss for a lifetime. The voltage concept, based on over forty years of clinical research, uses a skills-based approach from Anthetic Relationship Therapy. By providing psychodynamic skills for facilitating each partner’s psychological growth, the psychological infrastructure is then achieved for supporting optimal relating skills. The voltage concept presents a useful dichotomy of closeness levels to which partners aspire. Couples who want a more surface relationship fit a Low-Voltage Relationship model marked by less emotional intensity. With such couples, minimal skills can be taught to reduce any conflict that brought them to therapy. High-Voltage couples desire great emotional depth and receive skills to help them achieve it. Perhaps even more valuable, the voltage vocabulary equips clinicians and partners in understanding a common source of couple conflict; that is, the voltage mismatch. The book offers options for treatment when a voltage discrepancy exists in the couple.

You Only Fall in Love Three Times
Author: Kate Rose
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0525542736
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Discover the three types of love--and the key to finding the one you're truly meant to be with. We love and we love again -- sometimes our hearts get broken but, somehow, we find the courage to dive back in. In this soul-searching book, relationship expert Kate Rose guides readers down the path to a deeper understanding of who they are, what they want, and finally, to the discovery of their Twin Flame. According to Rose, love is a journey of self-discovery and every relationship we have in our lives teaches us something that we need to learn about ourselves and what will make us truly happy. She introduces readers to the three types of love we will all experience: The Soulmate introduces us to the dream of love, but somehow what seemed like it would be "happily ever after" wasn't meant to last forever. We are so consumed with making The Karmic Love work that we often fail to question whether it should work. As painful as it is to accept, this love that felt so right in the beginning is actually all wrong. The Twin Flame comes into our lives and often we don't even know it's love because . . . it's too easy. This is the love who helps us to accept ourselves just as we are because this is precisely what they do. In You Only Fall in Love Three Times, Kate Rose shows us that happy endings may not happen quite the way they do in fairytales-- but they happen nonetheless.

Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
In The Man and Woman Manifesto: What We Believe!, the author gives an accounting of what this paradigm shift into man and woman balance is about, both individually and for the world at large. We are at a turning point in the conscious evolution of mankind on planet earth. We all feel the change, and turbulence, although we are not sure of which way to turn. We are being offered an empty sexual progressivism through L,G,B,T,Q, as well as an existential threat in Islamic radicalism. In the meantime, our own Constitutional system of governance with its Christian roots seems to comprise a history--what is the way forward? These are not easy questions. This is not an easy book. But if you can capture its essence your life will forevermore have purpose. This writing will forevermore change your life as well as the world at large.

Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person

Category : Family & Relationships

Pages : 0
Book Description
A collection of essays extended from The New York Times' most-read article of 2016. Anyone we might marry could, of course, be a little bit wrong for us. We don’t expect bliss every day. The fault isn’t entirely our own; it has to do with the devilish truth that anyone we’re liable to meet is going to be rather wrong, in some fascinating way or another, because this is simply what all humans happen to be – including, sadly, ourselves. This collection of essays proposes that we don’t need perfection to be happy. So long as we enter our relationships in the right spirit, we have every chance of coping well enough with, and even delighting in, the inevitable and distinctive wrongness that lies in ourselves and our beloveds.
