![]() ![]() Rhonda opens her book with a stunning revelation. Her amazing ability to see the best in everything, to feel love for everyone and everything and to help so many people across the world has given her a wonderful insight into how we can all change our lives for the better. Her experiences in life led her to discover the Law of Attraction which then turned her life around. Rhonda Byrne is the lady who created the popular film and bestselling book, The Secret and her sequel book The Power. But then, "we become what we repeatedly do/think about". It's possible that you'll find it repetitive, but that's the point. You only need to devote 15 to 20 minutes per day. If you wish to bring gratitude into your life, I would recommend you to read this book. It's a step-by-step kinda self-help book. I followed the practises, having fun while also ensuring that I completed them on a daily basis. It's important not to take the book too seriously or too casually. ![]() The last six are for higher-level (helping others, dissolving problems, improving the situation). ![]() Out of 28 days of Gratitude Practice, 1st 12 days are for gratitude for what you have now and in the past. ![]() There are 28 practices to be followed for 28 days. This book relates to the law of attraction ( both spiritual and scientific perspectives). More deliberate ‘Thank You’, more gratitude feeling.ģ. Deliberately think and say ‘Thank You’.Ģ. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Kazi and Jase have survived, stronger and more in love than ever. As unexpected events spiral out of their control, bringing them intimately together, they continue to play a cat and mouse game of false moves and motives in order to fulfil their own secret missions. At the same time, Kazi, a legendary former street thief, is sent by the queen to investigate transgressions against the new settlements.When Kazi arrives in the forbidding land of the Ballengers, she learns that there is more to Jase than she thought. But a new era looms on the horizon, set in motion by a young queen, which makes her the target of the dynasty's resentment and anger. Even nearby kingdoms bow to the strength of this outlaw family, who have always governed by their own rules. When the patriarch of the Ballenger empire dies, his son, Jase, becomes its new leader. ![]() ![]() “The well-off exploit the poor, driving down their wages while forcing them to overpay for housing and access to cash and credit.” In Poverty, by America, Desmond “argues that affluent Americans knowingly and unknowingly work to keep poor people poor,” Crown says. In a starred review, a critic for Kirkus called it a “stunning, remarkable book” that “demands a wide audience.” Evicted, which follows several families in Milwaukee dealing with housing troubles, won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award, the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award, and the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence. ![]() It’s the first book by Desmond since Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City was published in 2016. ![]() in a new book coming next year, the Associated Press reports.Ĭrown will publish Desmond’s Poverty, by America, which it says “reimagines the debate on poverty, making a sweeping argument about why it persists in America: because the rest of us benefit from it.” Evicted author Matthew Desmond will tackle the issue of poverty in the U.S. ![]() ![]() ![]() It takes a profoundly controversial topic and focuses not on its moral content, but depicts instead a story of ordinary, decent people merely put into a difficult situation. If I told you After the Rain is one of the more innocent and heart-warming anime I've seen, would you believe me?Īfter the Rain is something unique in the entertainment industry. There is no happy ending to be sought, for the situation itself is a crisis without salvation. The man is a manipulator, a pervert, and the girl merely a confused soul. True, even when one puts aside the moral implications of such a romance, these sorts of encounters are often left to erotic fiction (the sort people would do their best to enjoy in complete and utter secrecy) and rarely depicted or even acknowledged in any serious ![]() A glance at the premise and a quick 'no thank you', most people's experience with this anime will be a few seconds at best. Anyone who has not already given After the Rain a go will more than likely have some serious reservations about watching an anime apparently centered upon some middle-aged dude getting with a high school girl. ![]() ![]() She is the creator of two of the most enduring figures in crime literature-Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple-and author of The Mousetrap, the longest-running play in the history of modern theatre.Īgatha Mary Clarissa Miller was born in Torquay, Devon, England, U.K., as the youngest of three. ![]() According to Index Translationum, she remains the most-translated individual author, having been translated into at least 103 languages. ![]() Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and a billion in translation. She wrote 66 crime novels and story collections, fourteen plays, and six novels under a pseudonym in Romance. Agatha Christie also wrote romance novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott, and was occasionally published under the name Agatha Christie Mallowan.ĭame Agatha Mary Clarissa Christie is the best-selling author of all time. ![]() ![]() She admires this girl in all aspects of her life. However, Annie later finds herself admiring and adoring a girl that she called the "Red Girl". ![]() She promises Gwen that she will always love her. She then falls in love with a girl by the name of Gwen. ![]() While her mother tries to teach her to become a lady, Annie is sent to a new school where she must prove herself intellectually and make new friends. She follows her everywhere, and is shocked and hurt when she learns that she must someday live in a different house from her mother. ![]() It covers issues as diverse as mother-daughter relationships, lesbianism, racism, clinical depression, poverty, education, and the struggle between medicine based on "scientific fact" and that based on "native superstitious know-how".Īnnie John, the protagonist of the book, starts out as a young girl who worships her mother. Annie John, a novel written by Jamaica Kincaid in 1985, details the growth of a girl in Antigua, an island in the Caribbean. ![]() ![]() ![]() Once again I drew it in ink with a paintbrush, forcing myself to not make mistakes and do it without under-drawing. ![]() It’s possibly my favourite, and it’s the only one I can think of where the chiaroscuro lighting allows for the full 3D shape of Moomintroll to be described. (There’s a reason for me doing all these, by the way, but I’m not going to explain for a while!)Īny way, the illustration I chose is a full-page plate, which is quite different from most of the Moomin illustrations. It’s probably my last of these for a while, but it’s definitely not the end. This is part of my self-imposed study schedule of the greats of ink illustration, which has taken me from Tenniel to Peake. I’ve spent the past few evenings attempting to recreate a Moomin illustration from Moominland Midwinter by Tove Jansson. ![]() ![]() Simon’s attraction to the source material is not hard to ascertain. But the Roth household is a much more intimate (at times claustrophobic) lens to explore such big-picture shifts than The Wire’s Baltimore police department or The Deuce’s cross section of the Times Square sex industry. The Plot Against America partly fits the profile, with the Roth family as a way into what it might be like to live through the erosion of democracy and rise of state-sanctioned violence. When you turn on a Simon show, you know you’re in for a methodical exploration of changing urban institutions through overlapping, and often opposed, personal experience. ![]() The erstwhile journalist, who leads the show alongside former detective and The Wire collaborator Ed Burns, has one of the most consistent M.O.s in modern television. ![]() The Plot Against America, the six-part 2020 miniseries that premiered on HBO on Monday night, occupies a similarly strange place in the canon of cocreator David Simon. ![]() ![]() ![]() Her appetite for other cultures grew as she traveled to Mexico, Guatemala, Europe, Israel and Egypt and more recently to Thailand and Vietnam. Ethnic peoples of the world developed as her favorite subject matter and simple designs grew into elaborate and detailed paintings. Each weekend her creations sold out at the street fairs of San Francisco and her career as a professional artist was underway. ![]() In the 60's when street fairs were becoming all the rage, she discovered batik, the ancient Javanese art of applying wax and dyes to fabric. With the encouragement of her family of artists, Marty began her strokes from an early age. Both are recognized in American Artists Who's Who. Her mother, Helen Noble, continued the artist tradition and is known primarily for her monoprints. Raised in Santa Barbara, California, she drew inspiration for her art from this 'Jewel of the Pacific' city, All four of her grandparents attended art school together in the mid-20's at the Cleveland School of Art and her maternal grandfather, George C Harper, went on to become a well known fine and commercial artist. Marty Noble, a resident of Anna Maria, Florida is an artist, photographer and full time illustrator. ![]() |
