Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
Relationships always begin with high vitality, the “vroom-vroom” of attraction and intimacy. But, often, that vroom-vroom subsides, societal expectations persist, life events happen, and partners are left wondering where the intimacy went and why their relationship seems so unfulfilling. Patricia Hayes Smith, in her book, Sex on Saturday Night: The Art of Intimacy, tackles this issue by looking at how behavior contributes to the vitality of a relationship and how partners interact. She delves into why partners behave the way they do; moreover, why YOU behave the way to do. Is your partner full of Warrior or Wildman archetypal energy? Are you in your mental, Achieving Self, and suppressing your Loving Self? Are you in love with being in love? What distractions has your partner created to avoid intimacy? Is your partner in male energy today? Learn about all these aspects of Self and what those aspects mean to a relationship. In Sex on Saturday Night: The Art of Intimacy, learn what steps you can take to understand yourself, remove thoughts and feelings that are at the root of dysfunction, and, thus, revitalize your relationship. In addition, you are given doable suggestions on how to maintain a healthy and vital relationship. A must read if you are ready to put the intimacy back into your relationship!

Night Vision
Author: Mariana Alessandri
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691215456
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
"The state of the world makes it difficult to look on the bright side. If there is a bright side perhaps it is that we have come to see the virtues of previously taboo emotions such as anger, sadness, anguish, anxiety, and grief. According to philosopher Mariana Alessandri, we're beginning to see that they are not evils to be avoided but valuable and sometimes even productive states. Many of us are coming to see that our darker feelings have something to teach us about ourselves, others, and what it is to be human. However, many of us don't know how to feel about what we're beginning to let ourselves feel. She asks: Is it (still) wrong for women to be angry? Is anxiety something we talk about openly now? Can we cry without apologizing yet? Our emotional landscape has been shifting, but no one's guiding us. As Alessandri says, "we need someone to help us grope around in the dark until our eyes adjust." In this book, Alessandri aims to explore these emotions and use philosophy to remove the stigma that still attaches to dark feelings. When we embrace our difficult feelings, she argues, we realize that hidden within them can be found wit and humor, closeness and warmth, connection and purpose, mission and motivation, empathy and self-knowledge, accuracy and communion. Drawing on philosophers and thinkers from Aristotle to Kierkegaard and Miguel de Unamuno to C.S. Lewis as well as contemporary philosophers such as Gloria Anzaldúa, Maria Lugones and bell hooks (as well as Fred "Mister" Rogers; more below!), Alessandri aims show how these thinkers helped to restore dignity to these feelings. Like them her aim is not to correct us but to help us feel, understand, and honor our sometimes painful emotions"--

Black the Night and Wild the Sea
Author: Vincent Smith
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 161996483X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
Black the Night and Wild the Sea is a story of adventure and intrigue set in the turbulent era of the Australian gold rushes. It is also a love story between two very different characters: Michael Byrnes, a warm hearted but roguish Irish adventurer, and Sele Kanawa, a beautiful and passionate Eurasian missionary. The story ranges from the wild southern coast of Australia to the jungles of the Cape York Peninsula and the wild unexplored islands of Melanesia, where brutal sea captains abducted natives to work as virtual slave labourers, and missionaries risked their lives to stop them. It is also a tale of a woman torn between her love for God and the work she feels called to do, and her love for a man determined to make his fortune. Vincent Smith grew up in an industrial town in England and moved to Australia when he was sixteen. It was then that he fell under the spell of the islands of the South West Pacific and their turbulent history. For the past half century he has served as a minister and chaplain to the Australian army, police and emergency services; some of it in the places where this story is set.
