Father & Sun
Some say family is everything. Some say family are just people we're assigned to at birth.Trey Amana, a forty-something, hardworking father of two, discovered his dad's death five years ago on the day after Christmas.

To take the final step toward healing the loss while saving extra cash for his holiday-obsessed kids, Trey decides to close his late father's storage unit once and for all. Trey discovers a journal written during his father's college years. His dad, Art, reveals an outrageous family secret driving Trey into a wormhole of suspicions.

Inside Out Heart Volume 2
This is a personal, poetic exploration of what it means for a son to care for his father in his final year of life, and what then arises after death has come, and the caring period has ended. After his father was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, the author, SJP Dooley, became his primary carer. During the challenges of this final year, as his father lay bedridden, the author sought solace in the poems that came to him. This book is the result. The poems in Inside Out Heart journey a broad field, from early childhood remembrances, to family life, wilderness, into the quiet of the nursing home and beyond. Nature symbols fill this work, as does a sense of wonder, and awe. Written from the unique perspective of a son, and carer, Inside Out Heart draws us into the room. We witness the confronting challenges of suffering from a debilitating terminal illness, the heartache, the struggles and, somehow, the magic that comes at the time of the easing away from the life that has been. Inside Out Heart Volume 2: Diary Notes provides insight into the life of the hospital, the rehab clinic, and eventually the nursing home. This is a clear, uncensored account of the unfolding of a family's confrontation with cancer. From the beginning of the year, completely unaware of what is to come, the hope for recovery, the depression when rehab is stopped, and the slow, gradual deterioration that has to be lived through. Inside these notes you will discover the pain, and sorrow that only a terminal illness can bring. But, if you persevere, as the author did, you will also come across that ever burning light of love, of soul, that remains with us no matter the circumstances. You are welcomed to come on this journey. One that is not easy, but one which we all must take.

The 5ive Categories of Dating
For a truly fulfilling relationship, you need two things. Self-awareness and compatibility. Self-awareness requires self-exploration, something many people are afraid to do, because the road to self-discovery can make a person confront or accept what they feel to be hidden flaws within themselves. Most people don't stop to think that the same imperfections are actually what makes them unique and compatible with someone else. Analyzing yourself can be a very difficult task, especially when you don't know where to start. There are so many aspects of our personalities, our preferences, our physical selves; all which factor into having a lasting relationship where both people are truly happy with one another. But when you think about it, this is what dating is all about. Finding someone who accepts you for you.Dating can be a very time consuming process however; and in some cases can be a very disappointing, even devastating. Some people search for years, only to be let down by someone who meant the world to them. But this is because most people are falling in love for all the wrong reasons... and not realizing it until it's too late.What if there were a logical process that you could use along with love's emotional aspect to find someone that you could build a lasting future with? What if there was a way that could help you avoid heartbreak while on your search for love? And what if this application could be used for any person on the planet, no matter their background or preference?Albert Einstein defined 'Insanity' as "Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." The pages within this book offer the alternative... something that is truly different. Something that is logical. An idea that actually makes sense.Finally, the missing piece of the puzzle we call Love...

There's a fine line between having feelings for him and wanting him to act as if he's your man because of those feelings.Unfold the real meaning behind the word many single women dread hearing-crazy. Author Toni Douglas, also known as the "Crazy Coach," teaches single women how to control their emotions so they won't get in the way of their dating experiences. The beauty behind this "crazy" approach is the empowerment Toni gives single women who may believe the men they date call the shots. Here's a hint-they don't. The straight-forward, spot-on advice on each page will answer burning questions like: - What is a Nonexistent Boyfriend, and how do I know if I have one?- What sorts of feelings or actions do I exhibit that cause men to call me crazy?- Will he think I'm crazy if I tell him how I feel in the beginning?- Does he have a say in where we stand, or do I?- Am I crazy for thinking we're a couple after we've been casually dating for a few months?This no-nonsense guide helps the single woman understand the behavior of the man she's casually dating by providing practical scenarios and tips she can use to address his seemingly unexplainable actions. Controlling the emotions that inconveniently pop up when things don't go as planned will become second nature while enjoying the single-and-mingling life. Be prepared to take notes as you learn what it means to "control your crazy" and determine whether you're going crazy without even knowing it.
Why We All Need Therapy
"It has long been my belief that psychotherapy is at the growing point of human evolution. At the moment, it has a dubious reputation because of the pressure to provide short-term solutions. Consequently, we don't deal with problems at sufficient depth, nor do we pay enough attention to the social environment where we wish people to thrive. As human beings, even when we are healed, we all need to feel valued, to have meaningful connections to others and to the world around us, and an inspiring purpose. These are the primary requirements of our nature, and it is the lack of them in our broken society that causes us to seek compensations through, wealth, fame, addiction or attachment to minority groups and gangs. In these pages I hope to show how we can realign ourselves with our essential nature, forge nurturing communities and so build a more human friendly world." JF. "I am personally aware that Dr Lake greatly valued the quality of John Fletcher's work with him." Dr Roger Moss, consultant psychiatrist.

The Three Altars of Marriage
"The Three Altars of Marriage" is an ingrained compact of valuable tasted life modelling principles that will set and prepare single and married persons to become building blocks and pillars towards establishing a sound relationship and marriage; being equipped with the composites that every good man looks for in a woman. I dare you to look into this Biblical Mirror of Foundations of Relationships and Marriage to see for yourself the hidden riches of insights as are embedded in the two testaments of the scriptures. In this book, I have addressed mind staggering questions. I have also provided Biblical answers to the real-life puzzles in the journey towards getting a good man/woman for marriage by single men and maidens.If the foundations be destroyed what shall the righteous do? Psm 11:3.Now, "The Three Altars of Marriage" addresses the three places or localities where single maidens and men were Biblically able to find their marriage partner. This book, points out the peculiarities and the subsequent attributes possessed by men and women that visited these localities. This book also points out the delusions that most single maidens have been poisoned with by the set trends of societies, hence not being able to align in readiness for their appointed destiny-mate. This book intends to set in order the things that are wanting and straighten up what has been crooked. God is calling for relational order for his people. For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy, and if the roots be holy so are the branches. Rom 11:16 In this book, am not only presenting to you the three places (altars) or localities of marriage; rather I have articulated the peculiarities and antiquities associated to the people that modelled the generations of renowned biblical figures of men and women whose life testimonies have continued shaping the lives of those that believe in their finished works of faith. I have no doubt in my mind that the principles and ordinances engraved in this book have not lost their taste and value to this day henceforth, rather they shall continue remaining valuably-relevant and impactful to anyone who shall breast them on their hearts and consequently apply them as standards for living and for shaping their perceptions; they shall continue to be the yardsticks for making long life relational decisions in a world that is slowly losing the long founded Biblical moral foundations for living and loving. This book, intends to point at the value that is due to your being and attach the same to where it is worth; just as Matt 23:19 puts it that the value of a gift ought to be attributed to the altar which sanctifies the gift and not to the gift. You see, men are worth the material they are made from and not the container that they are. No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment and the rent is made worse. Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles. Matt 9:16,17 Walk with me now through the lines of this book as I converse over the many issues through the light of scriptures, practice, and experience. Join me as I expose the untapped riches and mysteries of marriage and relationship resources embedded herein. Let me now give you a journey that will help you unearth the deep valuable things, for those envisioning to establish stable relationship &and marriage base. Remember, "A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump" Gal 5:9

The Disappearing
THE DISAPPEARING follows the author's family through even more trauma than she wrote about in her first book DESTINATION...SANITY. This story is based on true situations in Nancy's family. You will feel the love, concern, and fear that she experienced as more people in her family got sucked into the addiction quagmire. As her book begins, her older son Rick has beaten his addictions to opiates, yet he continues to use alcohol, nicotine, and probably a little weed. He is already gone, having died in his own swimming pool. Her younger son Josh chose alcohol as his drug of choice, beginning in high school. She watched helplessly as his health deteriorated in his late thirties. She explores the agony of watching her son suffer through his alcoholism and into medical conditions which he could not overcome.A granddaughter, Riley, started to experiment with drugs as a teenager. She eventually smoked, swallowed, and shot up anything she could get. She wanted to feel what her mom felt as she died of an accidental drug overdose when Riley was ten. She wanted to be with her mom. Riley nearly achieved that goal several times as she experienced addiction, homelessness, and rape. This is a good read not only for addicts, their friends and families, but also for professionals who work with addicts.
