Book Description
One day everyone will die, but it's terrifying when you know the exact time. The countdown to death will leave you in a dilemma whether to enjoy the remaining time & live in the illusion of life, or to interpret the process of death & leave the illusion of human life. Do you believe in magic? What if God offered us the opportunity to feel everything before we die? I'm asking this question because everything our family faced was not just a coincidence but pre-planned steps by God. Based on a true story, The Untold Life of my Sage Mother is focused on elaborating the unsaid tale of my mother's ways of living her passion and how she left life flawlessly. In her last time, our family members held her hand for the last three days where we could still feel her warm skin on our palms. When she was incapable to speak but able to listen, I promised her to write a book on her life which everyone would read and get inspired from her great life. I thought being too good doesn't exist, but after experiencing her the entire life, I understand, being extremely good exists but gets deceived by too bad people. She even remained selfless in her last time. I have written this book in tears because we lost someone who loved us like we born every day. When you lose your mother, the whole world becomes desolate. You will find her everywhere for the whole life. With the pain, smile and strength given by her, you still live anyway. The book, The Untold Life of My Sage Mother is written in tears and you will find stains on every page. When we perceive pain in life, we should focus on strength and that's what life means to humans and is expected by God. It's scary to find a certain time between life and death. It's better when we have a little uncertainty of everything. If you are reading this book, you have to be extremely strong because this will make you cry even when you don't want to. This book will leave you in a dilemma of whether to love this book or hate the god.

Bad Blood
Author: Lorna Sage
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061738603
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Whitbread Award Winner: A memoirist “conjures up her claustrophobic childhood in the small Welsh village of Hanmer with wit and unsentimental clarity” (The New York Times). The bad blood had missed a generation. You’re just like your grandfather, my mother said. Blood trickles down through every generation, seeps into every marriage. An international bestseller and winner of the Whitbread Biography Award, Bad Blood is a tragicomic memoir of one woman’s escape from a claustrophobic childhood in post–World War II Britain and the story of three generations of a family—its triumphs and its darkest secrets. With wit and a dose of self-deprecating humor, Lorna Sage’s prose brings to life a period—the 1940s and 1950s—that continues to influence and shape society in the twenty-first century. As a portrait of a family and a young girl’s place in it, Bad Blood is unsurpassed. “Her father was off fighting in World War II, her mother off in her own dreamy rerun of adolescence, so young Lorna hung onto the ‘skirts’ of her vicar grandpa, a histrionic, bitterly intelligent philanderer . . . Sage finds such delicious ironies in all the awful detail that readers can’t help but be entertained., wickedly . . . perfect book club reading.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “She lifts your spirits even as she hurts your heart.” —Daily Telegraph “Deeply affecting and beautifully written.” —People “Evocative, enthralling, often hilarious.” —Los Angeles Times “A superb memoir of a daughter of the ’50s who got knocked up, but not knocked down.” —Maureen Corrigan, NPR’s Fresh Air

The Untold Story of Sita
Author: Dena Merriam
Publisher: SCB Distributors
ISBN: 1513690663
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
The Untold Story of Sita replaces the traditional narrative of Sita's life as told in the Ramayana with Sita as she truly is -- an incarnation of the great Devi Narayani. Sita comes to Earth to join Sri Ram in setting the foundation for a new civilization at a time when humans are becoming separate from the natural world. She seeks to embed a great love for the forests and rivers, plant and animal life in the hearts and minds of the people, and to share the high spiritual accomplishments of the great women rishis and sages, many of whom you meet along Sita's journey. This is a story of a woman's wisdom, courage and strength, her love for the manifest and unmanifest worlds, and her selfless sacrifices for the welfare of all. So step into Sita's time and see what life was like during a more spiritually more advanced age, when there was an understanding of Dharma, not just as duty but as an alignment with the higher forces of love that make possible the preservation of our world.

Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Growing up fundamentalist and female-and maturing into a feminist By the age of twelve, Susan Campbell had been flirting with Jesus for some time, and in her mind, Jesus had been flirting back. Why wouldn't he? She went to his house three times a week, sat in his living room, listened to his stories, loudly and lustily sang songs to him. So, one Sunday morning, she walked to the front of her fundamentalist Christian church to profess her love for Jesus and to be baptized. But from the moment her robe floated to the surface of the baptistery water, she began to question her fundamentalist Christian faith. If baptism requires complete immersion underwater, what does it mean, she wondered, if a piece of fabric attached to a would-be Christian floats to the top? Does the baptism still count? In this lovingly told tale, Susan Campbell takes us into the world of fundamentalism-a world where the details really, really matter. And she shows us what happened when she finally came to admit that in her faith, women would never be allowed a seat at the throne.
