Letting Go Of The Thorns
Losing your spouse or partner is traumatic, and the grieving process can be compounded with regret, guilt, bitterness, depression, unforgiveness and self-blame. Negative emotions are normal but can form thorns and become like barbed wire around the heart. So...How do you deal with the pain underlying these emotions?How do you handle the hurt when people and (sometimes) God do not meet your expectations?Can the wounds of loneliness, sadness, depression, isolation, and heartbreak be healed?How can you safely transition from grieving to rebuilding your life?In Letting Go of The Thorns: Overcoming Bitterness and Unforgiveness in Widowhood, Kate Chukwu explains why bitterness and unforgiveness can hinder you from moving forward after losing a loved one. She also sets out various ways to be healed from the pain of bereavement, how to receive comfort and strength, rebuild your life, and journey towards fulfilment.
All Gone Strange
'All Gone Strange' is David Mosey's beguiling collection of poems and watercolours that explore eccentricity, love, space travel and bi-polar bears. David promises 'a brief paddle through the shallows of my soul', while the performance poet Steve Tasane describes this as 'an inventive, life-affirming book guaranteed to brighten your day'. David's poems and pictures reveal why 'a Finn pines for his bath more than a Norwegian would' and how platform boots can be awkward at discos. They explain his uselessness when crewing a river steamer and why his father said that 'spanners maketh man'. All Gone Strange celebrates a philosophical dustman, a French poet who wore a wastepaper bin on his head and the problems of a randy panda. It also uses gentle humour to skewer the outrageous behaviour of politicians and the darker side of A I. Comic 'poet laureate' John Hegley describes David's work as 'whimsical and pleasantly understated' and the 'Under the Influence' gigs at the London Boogaloo recognised in David a 'humour and charm that never fail to engage the audience'. All Gone Strange has been compared to the wry wordplay of Ogden Nash and we hope you enjoy the extraordinary people you will meet in this book.

How to Find True Love

Regimented Life
Based on unprecedented ethnographic access to a regimental community in Germany during a period of deployment to Afghanistan, this analysis of the ambiguities of gendered agency focuses not on the front-line experience of soldiers, but on that of the wives 'left behind'. Alexandra Hyde explores the mobile and contradictory position of civilian women as they navigate British Army culture and its reified production of social belonging. The book considers wives' exposure to - and implication in - processes of militarisation and, ultimately, war and state-sanctioned violence as they 'live with' rather than 'serve in' the military. Chapters explore multiple circuits of mobility and migration; women's productive and reproductive labour; rank and its relationship to class and ethnicity; and women's pre-emptive management of grief and human vulnerability. What emerges is a critical, feminist exploration of the composite relations of gender, class, sexuality and nation that combine to make and remake military power.

Whispering to your Heart
"Hazel's work resonates with readers and underscores the importance of addressing grief openly through poetry. Her words serve as comfort food for the broken soul." Kenda Summers.As someone who has experienced many losses, Hazel has often turned to writing to process her emotions. Grief affects us all, yet it is complex and different for everyone. It is also an emotive subject, hard to talk about, and we can often struggle for the right words when faced with bereavement - whether that be our own or the losses of others.Through the medium of this collection of poems, Hazel has skilfully opened that challenging dialogue, giving special attention to pet loss - a form of grief which is overlooked by many. With these words as guidance, we can begin those conversations using the poems as openings or even continuances for both ourselves and anyone we are supporting. Ultimately we will learn to understand and witness grief from different perspectives and to be kind to ourselves and others.When she shared her first poem, 'Whispering to your Heart', Hazel was overwhelmed at its impact. Many who read it thanked her for articulating their grief in a way that made sense, in some cases enabling them to begin their long, healing journey. Since then, she has been asked countless times to publish her poems and now, Hazel is delighted to have done so. In this, her first compendium, you will find poems covering many areas of grief (including anticipatory grief) and through these, by dipping in and out of them as needed, she hopes that you, too, can start a journey of recovery.Hazel's poems are full of intense emotions, delving as they do into the depths of mourning, so this is in no way a light-hearted read. It is, though, a must for anyone experiencing grief and loss, whether it be their own or that of someone close.

Shared Care or Divide Lives
Shared Care or Divided Lives? (Second Edition) Dr Watts' book serves as a timely reminder of just how important it is to keep your children's happiness and wellbeing as the focal point of the separation process. He answers questions you may not have thought to ask, providing a range of practical suggestions for a variety of different situations. It should be required reading for any parent or professional person working with families during separation. Robin Bourgeois (Family Court Lawyer, WA). It is critical that the needs of the children are properly considered when parents separate. Unfortunately, separation has a profound impact on the parents' capacity to function in a cooperative fashion when they most need to work together. This book is written to assist in understanding what children need and how to achieve it. Shared Care or Divided Lives? is a practical discussion of five main topics: -Family break-up as a psychological process -Developmental issues for children -How parental behaviour impacts the outcomes for children -Different processes for reaching agreement -Making shared care and other arrangements effective The essence of Dr Watts' discussion is that a court can order the time to be shared on an equal basis but it is the parents' actions which will determine whether the children end up with divided lives or whether they actually experience shared care. The power is in the hands of the parents. This book is a tool to assist in making shared care beneficial to all, especially the children. As a forensic psychologist with 25 years' experience, and with over 1000 appointments as single court expert in the Family Court, Dr Watts has witnessed first hand the terrible impact of separation upon the lives of children. This book is a combination of his extensive experience coupled with psychological theory.
Blind Date
"Riley?" I asked and she looked up from her phone. One of her eyebrows was raised."Yes?" she asked and that confirmed it. I felt like I couldn't breathe. What the hell was going on here? "Hi, I am Ash. Short for Ashley, but please call me Ash" I said, extending my hand. I sounded wooden and choked, but I didn't know what else to do. Riley's mouth dropped open; she smiled nervously, and shook her head. We both realized what this meant. Our "boys" weren't late. Both our dates had been on time."Uh...No, I...I am looking for a man," she explained.

My Journey with the Devil's Disease
My Lady and I had grown up together, went to church together, school together, and worked in the fields together. Our families were very close. She came home with my sister one Sunday afternoon and that evening as we got in the car together to go to the evening assembly, I guess that I took her hand in mine, and since she didn't slap it away as we rode all the way to that evening assembly, I thought that she liked me. Not long after that we went to an after-church-service party with all the teens. We played a game called 'Spin the bottle' and when it pointed at her the two of us went on a walk down the road. On the way back, under a bright, beautiful moon I kissed her and I knew that she was mine. Neither of us ever dated anyone else and on July 24, 1958 we became man and wife at my parent's home at Herman Junction. It was the greatest day of my earthly life. I cannot describe how much we loved each other.This book consists of some things I learned during the four years and six months after her Alzheimer's diagnosis. This is nothing like a deep study of things, just a day-to-day journey with the devils disease. If it is helpful to anyone, I am thankful.
