Book Description
We find ourselves so busy that we don't take the time to enjoy simple pleasures. Listening to the birds in the morning hours, taking a walk on the beach or even watching a lovely sunset. When was the last time you did any of these things? This book focuses on some of these little things that brings us much pleasure, yet we take them for granted. It paints a picture in your mind or offers you an escape to mentally be transferred to other more peaceful surroundings. Allow yourself to be transported to a lake watching still blue water or maybe a nice Fall day where the leaves are blowing from trees. Or maybe just sit back and watch children at play and really listen to their laughter. You see, these are simple things, yet they can also be priceless and so healthy for your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. I hope you will take a moment and escape with me. Enjoy.

A Life of One's Own
Author: Marion Milner
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040025102
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
'This is what I really want. I want to discover ways to discriminate the important things in human life. I want to find ways of getting past this blind fumbling with existence.' - Marion Milner, from A Life of One’s Own. How often do we really ask ourselves, 'What will make me happy? What do I really want from life?' In A Life of One’s Own Marion Milner, a renowned British psychoanalyst, artist and autobiographer, takes us on an extraordinary and compelling seven-year inward journey to discover what it is that makes her happy. On its first publication, W. H. Auden found the book 'as exciting as a detective story' and, as Milner searches out clues, the reader quickly becomes involved in the chase. Using her own personal diaries, she analyses moments of everyday life that can bring surprising joy, such as walking, listening to music, and drawing. She also records, in a disarmingly clear and insightful manner, the struggle between the urge to order and control one’s thoughts and standing back to let them wander where they may. A pioneering account of lived experience that also anticipates the contemporary phenomenon of mindfulness, A Life of One’s Own is a great adventure in thinking and living whose insights remain as fresh today as they were on the book’s first publication in the 1930s. This Routledge Classics edition includes a revised Introduction by Rachel Bowlby.

Simply Free
Author: Michael G. Hogan
Publisher: Abbott Press
ISBN: 1458221377
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
When Michael Hogan started writing, he never set out to pen a poetry collection. He simply told stories of his dad and, over time, the stories became confessionals in rhyme. Watching someone suffer through the terrible disease of alcoholism taught Michael many life lessons—ones he never wanted to learn. The only way to exorcise those old demons was to write. Simply Free is a collection of words that ring true to any child, spouse, or family member of an addict. In “Something’s Wrong, Dad,” he gives voice to a child’s fear. Who are you, Dad? You change too much Like when you drink, is that your crutch? What’s in the bottle you crave so dearly? It doesn’t help me see you clearly I pray, I pray for things to turn Steady my mind from the churn Only my dad controls the change Please, Dad, don’t be so strange. Dedicated to his dad, Simply Free flowed much easier than Michael originally expected. He believed sharing his thoughts and feelings would be unsettling—instead, the poems set him free. Through words happy and sad, read of hope postaddiction and the love of a child for his father.
