The Golden Gems of Life (9780982322123)



The Golden Gems of Life endeavors to awaken in all the realization that life is a gift to be prized and not wasted. It is a book full of wise counsel (gems) about life and how to live it to the fullest. Although written in the 1880s, the advice is just as applicable to our generation as it was to their generation and will be to future generations. In fact, it is desperately needed by our generation. This is an abridged version of the original book. Repetition has been eliminated and the book has been made more reader friendly by updating some words and phrases, but still retaining much of the beautiful language of the original book. The topics have been organized/combined under the following sections: -The Gift of Life -The Aim of Life -Family Life -Virtues to Acquire -Vices to Avoid -Trials of Life -Spiritual Life -The Evening of Life The content of the above sections is that of the original authors. There are a couple of inspirational stories added at the end of the book that illustrate many of the principles contained in the original book. Perhaps the greatest regret is felt by the person who has misspent the gift of life and nearing the end of life's journey, looks back on years wasted and missed opportunities. In the guiding light of the present, mistakes of the past are plainly seen and you may wish to turn back the hands of time and chart a different course. But this is not possible. However, it may be possible to redeem the time by making the most of your life now. Regrets are useless except when they awaken a desire to avoid the errors of the past. You can decide that from this day forward you will gather only the true "Jewels of life" that can make your hopes of success and happiness a reality. The best legacy you can leave those who follow you is a life well lived - an example they can follow. Begin now to apply the "gems" inside this book and live a life that can be recommended to all those who follow you.

Disintegration : Indicators of the Coming American Collapse (9781949762341)

The United States is undergoing a profound and radical transformation, all features of which point to the fact of its departure at an accelerated rate from its largely self-proclaimed status as a global hegemon. The United States has lost ground in every single category that defines the power and status of a nation in relation to its rivals. This book delves into the reasons for a catastrophic decline of the American nation, addressing a range of factors from the economic (especially energy), to cultural, technological and military factors. America's deindustrialized economy is now deeply affected by what can only be described as a massacre of her small and middle-size businesses and the implosion of the US commercial aerospace industry. America's only driver of real growth, the shale oil industry, is facing realities which may make the Great Depression pale in comparison. Disintegration also seeks answers to the precipitous moral and professional decline of the always mediocr...

Maybe it's because those faith communities make unwitting missteps: Pastors ask shy people to be Greeters, or recruit innately disorganized people to coordinate church events. The problem is simply this: Too many people's talents are going unappreciated. But it doesn't have to be this way. Living Your Strengths shows readers how to use their innate gifts to enrich their faith communities. The book --- written by...

Kai Althoff : Ossi Di Falfa Und Die Anderen Sin Schuld (9783905829280)

This comprehensive publication is Kai Althoff's third monograph. It contains never-before-seen works in addition to images from every stage of the artist's career, concentrating most heavily on work since 2002. The artist considers this to be a more ideally composed retrospective than any exhibition of his work would be capable of achieving. The selection of images focuses on documenting the work in a way that addresses the character of the works as well as the artist's current and past perspectives on his oeuvre. Possessing the emotional charge of the artist's works, this book presents personal, previously unpublished photographs, paintings, and writings of "failed satire" with a deceptive sentimentality that oscillates between nostalgia and self-deprecation. This stands in contrast with the innate beauty and craftsmanship of the works, which engrossed the artist at the time of their conception. Souffleuse der Isolation is also concerned with re-evaluating...
