Improbable: from tragedies to triumphs By: Romel Williams Romel Williams has written about her tumultuous childhood and traumatic experiences in her new autobiography, Improbable: From Tragedies to Triumphs. This is a story of overcoming everything in life that should have stopped her. At a very early age Romel witnessed her stepfather being murdered by her mother. “His body laying across the threshold of my bedroom. Blood bubbling up from his chest as he reached up for me. In that moment I hated her.” When she became a pre-teen/teen she had witnessed and experienced a lot of pain including, abandonment, her mother in prison, and adjusting to many issues. She describes how all of these events caused insecurities that stunted her progress.
Just when she was about to grab hold of one of her greatest achievements, she was brutally raped and left for dead. The years of grief caused her to want to end her own life. She gained a new revelation after her failed suicide attempt. This is a story of courageousness, self-reflection, and healing through therapy and a great support system. It tells of a start that is all too common in poorer communities. A childhood laced with drugs, violence, and alcoholism. She chronicles all of the tragedies on her way to success from childhood to adulthood. Truly a story of tragedies to triumphs.

Nor is it about how to get a man or keep a man. It’s about why women do what they do and like who they like. How a woman feels about herself can explain a lot about her decision-making. Too often, people don’t know themselves as well as they think they do. They repeat their behavior in relationships over and over again because of this lack of understanding. In many situations, the focus is on what the other person has done rather than looking inward at what you are doing. Once a person realizes that they can only change themselves, they are empowered to make real changes in their life and their relationships. I hope this book will help you learn more about yourself and your role in dating and relationships. here to edit. Order your copy from Amazon by clicking here! The Purpose of Life: To Love and To Create By: Dave Dale What is the purpose of life? Why are we here on this tiny planet amidst the immense vastness of the Universe? Can our lives have significance and meaning? To these questions, I never found a remotely satisfactory answer in everything I read or heard. Many of the purported answers to those questions from philosophers and physicists such as life is “absurd" or “pointless”, I could not accept. I just look around and see the intrinsic, magnificent beauty of the earth and the infinite wonder of the Universe and know there is an answer befitting the splendour around us. It is simply illogical to believe that, against all odds, we are born here amongst such awe to just suffer or meander through a meaningless and pointless existence. The many wonders and inspirations such as the pure love that is a newborn baby or the exquisite beauty of a single rose provide touchstones to intriguing answers. In searching for the purpose of life, I first looked at what the Universe does and what its purpose is. I then focused on what makes the Universe wondrous. In this book, I explore love, creativity, tragedy, and paradoxes to understand the purpose and meaning of life. I looked to the Universe, quantum physics, philosophers, religious leaders, artists, actors, writers, scientists, and some seemingly everyday people with extraordinary insights. Digging below the surface, illuminating consensuses and insights emerged even from the dourest of philosophers and scientists. I crafted this book to challenge a great deal of conventional thinking about what we think about life, love, creativity, and tragedy but also to ultimately get answers to the questions of the purpose and meaning of life for myself. With the goal that I could then take the answers and incorporate them into my day-to-day life to feel more fulfilled and be a better person. And conversely not lay awake worrying about life rushing past me and dying unfulfilled. For me, this book did that. Did it solve all my problems? Absolutely not, but like paradoxes I can accept and embrace my problems as I work through them with love and creativity. And I sleep better at night. I came to realize that the Meaning of Life is found in expressing love with creativity. The more I looked the more confirmation I found.

Yoga Beats Arthritis: The Benefits of Yoga and Its Effect on Combating Arthritis in Seniors, Living Life Like It's Golden in the Golden Years By E. Barnett Most of us want to reach old age but getting older doesn't come for free. Osteoarthritis, a painful and often incapacitating condition caused by years of wear and tear on the joints, is one of the costs of living a long life for many of us.

Estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta show that arthritis, which means "inflammation of the joints," affects about 60 million (or one in four) Americans. Arthritis is the most common cause of disability in this country. It affects more than seven million adults and makes it hard for them to do everyday things. Osteoarthritis is the most diagnosed type of arthritis in America. It affects tens of millions of adults, especially seniors in the United States.

Barnett Dr. Masaru Emoto was a pseudoscientist who claimed that human consciousness could affect the molecular structure of water. His most famous experiment, analyzing water crystals under certain circumstances, led to a string of books, starting in 1999. Emoto wrote about the effects of love, gratitude, prayers, and goodwill on water. He stated that water has lost its true form because people have abandoned the will of the Creator through their lifestyles. Today we explore the studies of Dr. Emoto and take a closer look at how this theory would impact words and its effect on the human body.
