Book Description
Where All Our Journeys End: Searching for the Beloved in Everyday Life explores our need to connect and reconnect with the Divine and all that has been graced by her. In these writings, we remember who and what we are in our blessings of being human beings entrusted to co-create; human beings who are divine sparks of the divine essence; human beings who love, passionately love, all of creation. For the Beloved is our ultimate destiny, where all our journeys truly do end. This book captures the audience with the grace of God/Goddess as the reader is taken chapter by chapter on a journey into healing. Written in a passionate, holistic voice, with personal and professional stories, Where All Our Journeys End projects a natural rhythm, expressed in the ebb and flow of its prose and poetry, which transforms thinking into being and doing for the Beloved in discovery and recovery. ADVANCED REVIEWS AND ENDORSEMENTS "C. Lynn Anderson makes a highly significant contribution to the understanding and practice of a spirituality which can support our journey through the major paradigm shift needed for humanity and Earth to thrive in the 21st Century. She brings extraordinary depth and breadth of intellect, clarity and beauty of expression to the discovery of a creation-centered spirituality that can nurture and encourage the reader in compassionate and sustainable living." J. Melvin Bricker, D.Min., Former Vice President of Academic Affairs, The University of Creation Spirituality, Oakland, CA. "Beautifully written C. Lynn Anderson gives voice to the creation story and colors it with her hue of compassion." Ana Perez-Chisti, Ph.D, National Representative of the Sufi Movement International and Chair of the Ph.D. Global Studies Department - Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. "C. Lynn Anderson has written an eloquent and inspirational book on how to live a deeply spiritual life that honors diversity while affirming fundamental unity. She powerfully integrates the insights of psychology with the wisdom of the world's religious traditions. Many of her personal insights are expressed in beautiful poems." Charles M. Burack, Ph.D., Chair of Liberal Arts and Director of the B.A. Psychology Program, John F. Kennedy University, former faculty at Naropa University, and author of D. H. Lawrence's Language of Sacred Experience. "C. Lynn Anderson's writing is insightful, compassionate, profound and inspirational. She speaks with the voice of someone who has been there and continues to go there." Mary Raymer, L.M.S.W., A.C.S.W., International Consultant and Trainer, Social Work Leader - Project on Death in America, and co-author of What Social Workers Do: A Guide to Social Work in Hospice and Palliative Care. "Dr. Anderson has committed herself to re-connecting social work practice with the compassion of heart and the spirit of soul. She walks a healing journey and invites others to walk with her to sustain life and nurture creativity."

Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
In Journey's End, many and varied collaborators write about death, dying, and the end of life. We attempt to describe real life issues and circumstances, and we discuss ways to proactively deal with them. Useful training, resource, and reference material is also included. Death, dying, and end of life are topics many prefer to avoid. This book suggests that we benefit from having frank discussions, living life to the fullest, and planning for our own journey's end, whenever that may be. Everyone who is born eventually will die, whether or not we want to embrace that fact. **** Though few of us know when we will die, we and our family or friends can be well prepared. We can have discussions and create written directives for what we want, if we are unable to verbally state them ourselves. Do we want life support? Do we want interventions that may or may not have any benefit to our quality of life if we are in the hospital or in an accident? Do we want to be involved in planning our funeral, memorial, or celebration of life? The submissions within are from professionals in the field of death and bereavement support and from laypeople, all of whom share stories of dying family members, friends, clients, and patients. Julie and Victoria, the coauthors of this book, also share stories from their personal and professional experiences. Journey's End is a broadly comprehensive book about death, dying, and the end of life.

Too Great a Sky
Author: Liliana Corobca
Publisher: Seven Stories Press
ISBN: 1644214180
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
The story of the deportation of Romanians from Bucovina to the steppes of Siberia, an exercise in historical memory and a powerful story of maintaining humanity in impossible conditions. A new novel from Liliana Corobca and her translator Monica Cure, winner of the Oxford-Weidenfeld translation prize. Ana is eleven when the Soviet soldiers send her from Bucovina, Romania, to Kazakhstan. She is just one of many forced to leave behind her home and make the three week long journey via train. The trip is a harsh, humiliating one, but in spite of the cold and the closeness of death, life persists in the boxcar in the form of storytelling, riddles, and ritual. Years later, Ana recalls her childhood for her great granddaughter, who is considering moving her to a nursing home. Her story, told with unflinching candor, is a chronicle of a life lived during a time of great political and national change, a story of an existence defined and curtailed by lines drawn on a map. The narration is interspersed with songs that transform into poems, and prayers spoken in the past that become prayers in the present. What links the narration is not so much a plot as it is the reader’s astonishment. How could Ana survive such a series of experiences, and do so with her mind and heart intact? A history of cruelty and trauma lies behind the banal markers of contemporary life. These realizations combine in the central theme of the book, one which the narrator describes as, “stories bring you youth.”

Bard of Iceland
Author: Dick Ringler
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 9780299177201
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 520
Book Description
Bard of Iceland makes available for the first time in any language other than Icelandic an extensive selection of works by Jónas Hallgrímsson (1807-1845), the most important poet of modern Iceland. Jónas was also Iceland's first professionally trained geologist and an active contributor in a number of other scientific fields: geography, botany, zoology, and archaeology. He played a key role as well in Iceland's struggle to gain independence from Denmark. "Descriptive power and fullness of spirit were the hallmarks of his soul," wrote a contemporary admirer. Dick Ringler, one of the premier scholars of Icelandic literature in the world, offers a substantial biography of Jónas, a representative selection of his most important poems, and some of his prose work in science and belles lettres. Ringler also provides extended commentaries and an essay on Icelandic prosody. The poems are translated into English equivalents of their original complex meters in Icelandic and Danish. As a poet Jónas was intimately familiar with his nation's medieval literary inheritance--the sagas and eddas--and also with the groundbreaking work of contemporary German and Danish Romanticism (Chamisso, Heine, Oehlenschläger). A master of poetic form, Jónas not only exploited and enlarged the possibilities of traditional eddic and skaldic meters, but introduced the sonnet, triolet stanza, terza and ottava rima, and blank verse into the Icelandic metrical repertory.
