The Beauty of Living Twice

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • Sharon Stone tells her own story: a journey of healing, love, and purpose. • “Not your typical Hollywood autobiography. Brutally honest, restless and questing.” —O, The Oprah Magazine Sharon Stone, one of the most renowned actresses in the world, suffered a massive stroke that cost her not only her health, but her career, family, fortune, and global fame. In The Beauty of Living Twice, Stone chronicles her efforts to rebuild her life and writes about her slow road back to wholeness and health. In a business that doesn’t accept failure, in a world where too many voices are silenced, Stone found the power to return, the courage to speak up, and the will to make a difference in the lives of men, women, and children around the globe. Over the course of these intimate pages, as candid as a personal conversation, Stone talks about her pivotal roles, her life-changing friendships, her worst disappointments, and her greatest accomplishments. She reveals how she went from a childhood of trauma and violence to a career in an industry that in many ways echoed those same assaults, under cover of money and glamour. She describes the strength and meaning she found in her children, and in her humanitarian efforts. And ultimately, she shares how she fought her way back to find not only her truth, but her family’s reconciliation and love. Stone made headlines not just for her beauty and her talent, but for her candor and her refusal to “play nice,” and it’s those same qualities that make this memoir so powerful. The Beauty of Living Twice is a book for the wounded and a book for the survivors; it’s a celebration of women’s strength and resilience, a reckoning, and a call to activism. It is proof that it’s never too late to raise your voice and speak out.

Twice Found
Author: Kyle Duford
Publisher: Estes Press
ISBN: 0578329050
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Kyle Duford was a successful executive, mostly because he preferred working overseas to being at home in his broken marriage. But as his life took a dramatic turn, was fired, divorced, and contemplating suicide, he started to feel chased by God. That's when, as he started looking back on his life, he realized that nearly every person with whom he interacted, at nearly every stage in life, was really "Jesus with skin on," showing God's love for him. After a period of his brokenness in the days after his firing, he knew something had to change, so he hopped a flight to Maui to be alone with his thoughts and whatever the universe, or God—or whatever was out there—had in store for him. It's in those days that Jesus used nearly every person with whom he came in contact to show Kyle he was there, with him, chasing him. But God saved his biggest surprise for last: a random introduction to his life-long love with whom he hadn't had any contact in twenty-one years. Not on social. Not an email. Nothing. And that encounter would change everything. A story of life with-and-without God and how he helps us to be ourselves in a unique and authentic way so we can live life to the fullest.

Pages : 349
Book Description
"Myles speaks with one of the essential voices in American poetry." —New York Times A collection of new and selected past work from one of America’s most celebrated poets Eileen Myles's poetry and prose are known for their blend of reality and fiction, the sublime and the ephemeral, in which readers can peer into existent places, like the East Village of Myles's iconic Chelsea Girls. But they are also lifted into dreams, through writing that has the vividness and energy of fantasy. I Must Be Living Twice brings selections from the poet’s previous work together with a set of bold new poems, through which Myles continues to refine their sardonic, unapologetic, and fiercely intellectual literary voice. Steeped in the culture of New York City, Myles's stomping grounds and the home of their most well-known work, they provide a wide-open lens into radical life.

Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
What rules do you abide when you’re already dead inside? My only worst fear is being forced out of this grave that I live in Back into the life that I hide A past that I reminisce it was always bad choices Bad choices Bad choices And now it's consequences Consequences Consequences Now I stand behind steel bars and barbed wire fences Facing a five year sentence I've been criminalized And given a label as unstable They’ve taken my youth and given me but a second chance at bail As I stand before the judge he asks me "do you think this is proper justice?" But it's kinda hard to think about that when I'm staring at my mother through a wood and glass booth Twelve years old cuffed and shackled, her tears hit me like bullets I'm breathless Can hardly catch my breath to plead guilty But what innocence do I have left? Guilty is the verdict Pleading otherwise would just be reckless But never mind that my face says it all The judge knows I'm guilty It doesn't take 21 questions from the jury to detect this Live once die twice When you’re already dead inside Living is just a sacrifice
