Описание: In this brilliant and profoundly moving collection of 'farewell letters' written by servicemen and women to their loved ones, Si n Price offers a remarkable insight into the hearts and minds of some of the soldiers, sailors and airmen of the past three hundred years. Each letter provides an enduring snapshot of an impossible moment in time - when an individual stares death squarely in the face. Some were written or dictated as the person lay mortally wounded; many were written on the eve of a great charge or battle; others were written by soldiers who experienced premonitions of their death, or by kamikaze pilots and condemned prisoners. They write of the grim realities of battle, of daily hardships, of unquestioning patriotism or bitter regrets, of religious fervor or political disillusionment, of unrelenting optimism or sinking morale - and above all, they write of their love for their family and the desire to return to them one day. Be it an epitaph dictated on a Napoleonic battlefield, a staunch, unsentimental letter written by a Victorian officer, or an email from a soldier in modern day Afghanistan, these voices speak eloquently and forcefully of the tragedy of war and answer that fundamental human need to say goodbye.

Описание: Take a shower, wash off the day. Drink a glass of water. Make the room dark. Lie down and close your eyes.Notice the silence. Notice your heart. Still beating. Still fighting. You made it, after all. You made it, another day. And you can make it one more. You're doing just fine. Named after the poem that has been shared over 700,000 times on Tumblr, this is the third book from young author and songwriter Charlotte Eriksson. A collection of prose and poetry with the themes of hope, healing, loneliness, and learning how to bloom in solitude. An exploration of the life of a young artist with an aching heart, urged by a wanderlust that leads and directs, and the simple task of learning how to live with yourself. Quotes and writings from the You're Doing Just Fine has been widely shared and embraced by like-minded communities such as To Write Love On Her Arms, The Artidote, Wordporn and The Good Quote, wracking up hundreds of thousands of likes, shares and comments on each post. Writings and poems from the book has since the release been published on Thought Catalog, Rebelle Society and Bella Grace Magazine. "Charlotte knows her reader so well that it feels like she's writing my very own journal." You can get yourself a small room in a new city where no one knows your name just yet but they will, for they will see you walking quietly through the market on Sunday mornings, and sitting at the cafe on Tuesdays scribbling thoughts in that worn out notebook, or in the library between the shelves of different worlds, and late on Friday eveningsyou will sit peacefully in the corner of the pubby yourselfand you will be okay with that. Some nights beautiful boys will buy you drinks and ask your name and you will smile, but be okay with walking home alone because one day someone will know you without asking your name and that's the person that matters. So wait a few years, until you can get yourself a small room in a new city where no one knows your name just yet but they will and there will be an older lady knocking at your door saying hi and you're very welcome, and you can have a garden where only flowers grow, with no thorns, that you plant yourself, and on sunny mornings in April you can sit and watch them bloom a little more each day, just like you do, bloom a little more each day. And on crisp winter mornings in January you can drink coffee in the cold on your own front porch and the town is empty but full of other things like space. And hope. And purity. Wait a few years, when things are clearer, and you will go on well. Just hold onand wait. You will be okay.

Описание: A special, beautiful, gold-embossed 10th-anniversary edition of this winning story of unconditional family love, from the creators of Guess How Much I Love You.
After years and years of fighting, arguing, drug over doses and suicide threats we had no idea of how we could make it through the next day. We were being held hostage by my 19 year old step daughter who would threaten to kill herself if she didn't get what she wanted.
We couldn't just give into her nor could we not take her threats seriously. In the midst of yet another argument, she played the "I'll kill myself" card again.
Being beyond the point of extreme frustration and hopelessness, I got up and walked calmly to our closet returning with my gun. I placed the gun in her lap, looked into her eyes and said, "Go ahead, just do it". I promised her we would give her a nice funeral and take good care of her remains. I then said "just do it or shut up about it".
She paused for a few moments and looked at the gun.
We were a normal middle class family living in the suburbs trying to have a regular life like anyone else. With years and years of fighting and battling, a normal life is one we didn't know would ever be possible.
I was first a married guy without kids then a step dad and eventually a father. I have seen the effects of divorce from many angles and the toll it takes on entire families and the kids. I saw it in my own home in ways I would never have believed. Mix in some mental issues and it was a raging battle.
Having experienced all that, I want to encourage families to think hard about what a family breakup can do to the family at large. My hope is that sharing my experiences might help families stick it out and reap the blessing of not having given up.
