Our Global Wave of Change
Author: Terry Sands
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
If you think you are losing your mind, you are not alone. Our world is changing very fast. In fact, the change is now exponential. We have never seen this rate of change before. We are now facing an epidemic of suicides. Many people are taking their own life because they cannot keep up with the change. We are moving forward with wonderful incentives, innovations, and inventions, with one exception: our mental system is breaking down. It all starts when you feel you ‘know’ something inside, but you don’t know what it is. Here is an abbreviated statement of one young person, an 18 year old girl: “There was a deep yearning of darkness inside that just ached all the time. I craved and wanted to end everything by ending my life. That was the resolution. .... The Material in this book enlightened my perception of my reality, because there is a purpose and there is a meaning. We have to wake up, humanity does.” In this book, I discuss why our mind simply cannot keep up with the present pace of change with the way we use it now. This new breed of change is challenging our mental foundation and our reality. In one part, we look at how this change is affecting us and some of the symptoms that indicate you may be affected by this Change. Finally, we look at how to shift your mind into high gear so you can keep up and keep going.

Henrietha/Waiting For the World to Change
Author: Joyce M Johnson
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1638296251
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
It all started in Toronto, Ontario in a coffee shop on the Southside corner of Church and King Street right across the street from St. James Cathedral. Joanna White was having a difficult time in her office as well as in her marriage as her husband had recently walked out on her. Joanna is trying to restructure her life when she’s interrupted by Jamaican-born Henrietha Browne, who had just walked in forcefully pulling her chair out, sitting down, taking a sip of her coffee then humming a song and tapping in rhythm close by. Intrigued by Henrietha’s carefree nature and desperate to get out of her own thoughts, Joanna asks Henrietha to join. Henrietha agrees and quickly bonds with Joanna while exchanging stories of pain, defeat, and abuse. From that day forward, they were inseparable; making plans to continue to share stories as they explore Toronto. Waiting for the World to Change speaks about marriage and domestic work. Susan Ottawa, a black lawyer in Toronto, and Anita Kingsley, a domestic worker, had met in the same building where they live. One day, they were having lunch and Susan had a book that she had just bought. In anger, she threw a book titled “Is marriage for White People” on the table. The root of Susan’s anger comes from knowing she’s struggling to find a man and men from all different walks of life are quicker to marry white women before the thought of a black woman crosses their mind. Anita drew a comparison to domestic work. As a college educated woman, she too, found it very difficult to find a job outside of domestic work and in her field of study. She finds herself asking “Is domestic work just for black people?” And it continues.
