"A joyful heart is like good medicine." Proverbs 17:22More than ever before in our lifetime, as we face a global pandemic as well as personal challenges and daily setbacks, we need, with intentionality, to choose joy Over 25 years ago, I embarked upon a research project focusing on one primary topic. My probing question was: "What are the practical strategies a person could implement that would enbable him or her to experience an authentically joyful life? The answer to this question is contained within the pages of my book, "Choosing Joy: The pathway to a Life of Passion and Purpose". Sharing scriptural principles, real life illustrations and specific daily strategies, Choosing Joy is a textbook which will enable you to live an authentic life of joy, passion and purpose.
A collection of short stories and short-shorts featuring tales of women who aren't content to accept fate. These tilted tales challenge perceptions of justice, punishment, immortality, love, and death. In worlds where power falls into the wrong hands and the laws governing perception have been rewritten, ordinary people become heroines, beasts are not always the monsters, and sometimes the right thing is very, very wrong.
Twins Talk is an ethnographic study of identical twins in the United States, a study unique in that it considers what twins have to say about themselves, instead of what researchers have written about them. It presents, in the first person, the grounded and practical experiences of twins as they engage, both individually and together, the "who am I" and "who are we" questions of life. Here, the twins themselves are the stars. Dona Lee Davis conducted conversational interviews with twenty-two sets of identical twins attending the Twins Days Festival in Twinsburg, Ohio, the largest such gathering in the world. Lively and often opinionated, each twin comes through as a whole person who at the same time maintains a special bond that the vast majority of people will never experience. The study provides a distinctive and enlightening insider's challenge to the nature/nurture debates that dominate contemporary research on twins. The author, herself an identical twin, draws on aspects of her own life to inform her analysis of the data throughout the text. Each chapter addresses a different theme from multiple viewpoints, including those of popular science writers, scientific researchers, and singletons, as well as those of the twins themselves.

Meanwhile, other unions wallow seemingly right from the start. Intimacy is just as emotional as it is sexual. It is a physical and mental intimacy which allows each spouse to let down their barriers. Forgiving each other is not only about taking a deep breath during minor transgressions, but also means to let go and move on with your lives. DO NOT try to change your spouse. As a team in marriage, you do not want to let others drive a wedge between you, including parents-NOT part of your team. You are not just lovers-you are best friends. There is more to marriage than adversity, commitment, crisis, and passion. Be sure to share the fun with each other. MATRIMONY UNDENIED
