Book Description
As we journey through life, we expect major events to affect our lives. They do. But the most valuable lessons sometimes come through smaller and what some might call insignificant snippets.During my journey through the decades, I have been blessed with many valuable snippets of life. As I grow older, I realize the importance of these snippets and how I was given the opportunity to use those minute events to grow physically, mentally, and spiritually.The snippets of those events in our lives could be easily overlooked, but they are too important to remain hidden in our memories. It is the snippets that define who we are. It is in the snippets we learned how to expand our creativity, how to love one another, how to deal with our own children, how to forgive, and how to appreciate God's plan for each us.God used our parents' responses to our wild adventures and many mistakes to teach us many of these lessons. One must always be vigilant to God's will. God uses every situation as lessons, but it is up to the individual person to learn from those lessons.It is me again, Lord, thanking You for the blessings of life lessons You gave us in which to grow physically, mentally, and spiritually.A little Georgia wisdom: Always be open to the lesson God provides in each situation. In doing so, one will enjoy this journey through life a whole lot more.

Wisdom from a Rainforest
Author: Stuart A. Schlegel
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820349585
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
In the early sixties, Stuart Schlegel went into a remote rainforest on the Philippine island of Mindanao as an anthropologist in search of material. What he found was a group of people whose tolerant, gentle way of life would transform his own values and beliefs profoundly. Wisdom from a Rainforest is Schlegel's testament to his experience and to the Teduray people of Figel, from whom he learned such vital, lasting lessons. Schlegel's lively ethnography of the Teduray portrays how their behavior and traditions revolved around kindness and compassion for humans, animals, and the spirits sharing their worlds. Schlegel describes the Teduray's remarkable legal system and their strong story-telling tradition, their elaborate cosmology, and their ritual celebrations. At the same time, Schlegel recounts his own transformation—how his worldview as a member of an advanced, civilized society was shaken to the core by a so-called primitive people. He begins to realize how culturally determined his own values are and to see with great clarity how much the Teduray can teach him about gender equality, tolerance for difference, generosity, and cooperation. By turns funny, tender, and gripping, Wisdom from a Rainforest honors the Teduray's legacy and helps us see how much we can learn from a way of life so different from our own.

Publisher: The New Press
ISBN: 1620979284
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
The “heartfelt” (Shelf Awareness) story of how Georgia State University tore up the rulebook for educating lower-income students Published to wide acclaim, Won’t Lose This Dream is the “illuminating” (Times Literary Supplement) story of a public university that has blazed an extraordinary trail for lower-income and first-generation students in downtown Atlanta, the birthplace of the civil rights movement. “A powerful story of institutional transformation” (bestselling author Beverly Daniel Tatum), Won’t Lose This Dream shows how Georgia State University has upended the conventional wisdom about low-income students by harnessing the power of big data to identify and remove obstacles that previously stopped them from graduating—an earthshaking achievement that is reverberating across every college campus today. “Drawing on extensive on-the-ground reporting” (Kirkus Reviews), Andrew Gumbel delivers a thrilling, blow-by-blow account of visionary leaders who overcame fierce resistance, and the remarkable students whose resilience and determination inspired the work at every stage. Their success shows how the promise of social advancement through talent and hard work, the essence of the American dream, can be rekindled even in an age of deep inequalities and divisive politics. “A superb work for anyone interested in higher education” (Library Journal), Won’t Lose This Dream “lays out a persuasive vision for reform” (Publishers Weekly) and a concrete vision of higher ed that works for all Americans.
