Book Description
So, what is this thing called bliss and why is everyone following it? In our on-going competition to keep up with the feminine ideal, there are countless daily opportunities for us to miss the bar set by Victoria's Secret, Martha Stewart, PTA room mothers, and Cosmopolitan magazine. One thing I've learned in working with hundreds of coaching clients over the years is the distinct need to expand our core definition of "bliss." I've learned that naturally happy people don't live in a constant state of Zen. People who show up from a place of consistent joy are awake to the whole human experience-the good, the bad, and the ugly. Maybe that's not what you wanted to hear. Perhaps you had hoped this was a guidebook for being happy all the time. Bliss doesn't mean you have your life all figured out and that problems elude you. (Spoiler Alert: That will never happen!) It just means you choose to find moments of appreciation and beauty, not just when the evidence is good, but through whatever monotony or hell is going on in your life. This interactive book will challenge your thinking about the concept of both bliss and chaos in your life as it takes you on a light-hearted, fun and tactical journey to discovering what brings you joy and how to get there more often.

Wild Life
Author: Keena Roberts
Publisher: Grand Central Publishing
ISBN: 1538745143
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight meets Mean Girls in this funny, insightful fish-out-of-water memoir about a young girl coming of age half in a "baboon camp" in Botswana, half in a ritzy Philadelphia suburb. Keena Roberts split her adolescence between the wilds of an island camp in Botswana and the even more treacherous halls of an elite Philadelphia private school. In Africa, she slept in a tent, cooked over a campfire, and lived each day alongside the baboon colony her parents were studying. She could wield a spear as easily as a pencil, and it wasn't unusual to be chased by lions or elephants on any given day. But for the months of the year when her family lived in the United States, this brave kid from the bush was cowed by the far more treacherous landscape of the preppy, private school social hierarchy. Most girls Keena's age didn't spend their days changing truck tires, baking their own bread, or running from elephants as they tried to do their schoolwork. They also didn't carve bird whistles from palm nuts or nearly knock themselves unconscious trying to make homemade palm wine. But Keena's parents were famous primatologists who shuttled her and her sister between Philadelphia and Botswana every six months. Dreamer, reader, and adventurer, she was always far more comfortable avoiding lions and hippopotamuses than she was dealing with spoiled middle-school field hockey players. In Keena's funny, tender memoir, Wild Life, Africa bleeds into America and vice versa, each culture amplifying the other. By turns heartbreaking and hilarious, Wild Life is ultimately the story of a daring but sensitive young girl desperately trying to figure out if there's any place where she truly fits in.

A Uniquely American Epic
Author: Michael Bliss
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813178150
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
One of the most innovative films ever made, Sam Peckinpah's motion picture The Wild Bunch was released in 1969. From the outset, the film was considered controversial because of its powerful, graphic, and direct depiction of violence, but it was also praised for its lush photography, intricate camera work, and cutting-edge editing. Peckinpah's tale of an ill-fated, aging outlaw gang bound by a code of honor is often regarded as one of the most complex and impactful Westerns in American cinematic history. The issues dealt with in this groundbreaking film—violence, morality, friendship, and the legacy of American ambition and compromise—are just as relevant today as when the film first opened. To acknowledge the significance of The Wild Bunch, this collection brings together some of the leading Peckinpah scholars and critics to examine what many consider to be the director's greatest work. The book's nine essays cover an array of topics. Explored are the function of violence in the film and how its depiction is radically different from what is seen in other movies, the background of the film's production, the European response to the film's view of human nature, and the strong sense of the Texas/Mexico milieu surrounding the film's action.
