At the time of my husband's untimely death, we had been married forty-five years, which meant I had not just lost my one true love, but I was also lost We were each other's best friends, and whatever one of us did was filtered through the lens of what we knew about the other's desires.I thought it impossible to survive without him because there were too many tasks, decisions, plans that he alone managed. As I shared with close friends my struggle to accomplish left-brain tasks previously foreign to me, they laughed heartily. I saw that grief had a funny side. Each segment of my book tells a different aspect of my journey to successfully function without Waverly. I reveal my intimate thoughts and actions in a stream-of-conscience writing style, rather than to tell my story in chronological order. Most experiences are highly amusing, but for times when I found no humor, I created a chapter called "Mama Said There'd Be Days Like This." Writing this book was cathartic for me, but I also wanted to connect with readers who are mourning like I am. Humor is excellent medicine.I apologized to a dear friend for naively thinking that grieving over the loss of her husband was something that diminished in time. I foolishly likened her grief to a wound that looked awfully painful at first, but got better each day until only a tiny scar remained. I now know that these distinct scars will never disappear, and that coping with grief is the only way to find a measure of happiness again. It's called a "new normal."I've learned that grief is like a roller coaster, where the ride never ends, and the goal is to find the courage to let go your grip of the safety bar and raise your arms high in the air, as you "free fall" with confidence that you'll land safely, in your right mind.
HOODLESS KLAN is the story of a charter school principal who was a thirty-eight-year veteran educator with a stellar record before accepting this position at Pine Woods Charter Elementary School. Dr. Grace Middleton knew how to create a positive school climate, empower staff to be risk-takers on behalf of the student clients whom they all served, and involve parents in meaningful decisions surrounding their children's education.However, a group of manipulative, wealthy racists within the school system and the larger community boldly insisted that Dr. Middleton be complicit with them in taking unscrupulous actions against minority staff, parents and children. When she refused, they join forces with a key central office staff member and a compromised Board of Education to attempt to force her out of her job and out of that upscale township. It's the classic story of righteousness versus evil, with the education of all children hanging in the balance.Remarkable efforts to discredit Dr. Middleton produced absurd fabrications about her job performance that caused the Board of Education to fire her. After the intervention of a top attorney, that Board rescinded her termination and she retired. Modern-day racism masks itself in the (hoodless) faces of some persons with power, affluence and influence, who know the right thing to do, but willfully choose the opposite actions without fear of consequences. Dr. Grace Middleton is the modern-day antidote to the poison of the Hoodless Klan

In his visionary work on the natural and sacred spheres, New Thought pioneer Henry Drummond started to bridge the gap between science and spirituality. He explained how modern laws of physics, biology, cybernetics, and ecology are the same laws that govern the spiritual realm. He showed how various scientific findings may be applied to seemingly divine human experiences. For Drummond, this realization meant we could live freely, not bound by a limited view of the universe in which only matter could be manipulated. The sixth addition to Ruth Miller's Library of Hidden Knowledge series, One Lawupdates Drummond's amazing work into accessible, modern English alongside the original text. This format provides a clear interpretation that cuts through Drummond's difficult, outdated terminology, helping us understand the often opposing-but overlapping-scientific and spiritual realms. Miller, an ordained New Thought minister, integrates up-to-date scientific, spiritual, and cultural information to clarify important metaphysical principles and bring Drummond's philosophy to all who seek its truth.
"Come to Me all you who are weak and weary and I will give you rest" Matt. 11:28God is strength, grace, peace, truth, and love. He has created each of us on purpose, for a purpose. He guides each step of our lives. This book shows attributes of God's character, reminds the reader of His promises, and provides encouragement to be still, trust, obey, and surrender as you seek to follow God wherever and whenever He leads, through hardships, the calm, and everything in between. The response page allows you to write down what you want God to know about how you feel about what He has just told you. It is a wonderful opportunity to express your feelings. Please respond.
"Toys from Heaven" is based on scripture Ephesians 4:8KJV "Wherefore he saith, when he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men." This book takes the text and makes it come to life to Joey a seven year old, in Sunday school. The teacher put on a show. She showed how God sent Christ to Earth to help struggling people. A huge surprise came to the children when the teacher opened her mouth to articulate the gifts given to men. It was exuberance of joy for the children - a moment they would never forget.
Humans have been traveling since time immemorial for different reasons. Curiosity to learn "what's out there," necessity, a hope for a better life, have been leading factors. Travel has brought about cross-pollination to civilizations; systems of governance, commerce, ways of doing things have evolved in response to the new brought in from somewhere else.Pleasure and educational travel are most likely more recent additions to reasons for looking beyond the immediate horizon. For much of her personal experience, Ruth Hohberg traveled with her husband Robert. There was always someone to take counsel with if in doubt about the direction to take in an airport or in a city, and someone to advise on a course of action if one of them didn't feel up to par. Since becoming a widow and traveling solo, everything has changed. Not only does Ruth have to make directional and other on-the-spot decisions without help, but unless she meets like-minded folks in the tour group, there isn't anyone with whom to share her impressions, leaving her to her own devices. On the surface, it's not a big issue. Many single travelers enjoy the independence solitude provides and prefer not to be accompanied on their wanderings or interrupted in their thoughts. For Ruth, a friendly and fairly outgoing sort, the mutuality of sharing the awe-inspiring moment is important. The tours captured in this collection were taken both solo and in the company of her "travel buddies."Join Ruth on her excursions across America. It just may inspire an "Ah, yes, I remember," a different take on the same place, or "I'd like to go there." Whichever it is, it will be a voyage of discovery that no one can ever take away from you.

Ancient mystery schools and modern shamans teach us that the future is constantly calling us into it, that humanity has evolved in epochs, or "worlds," and that we're now coming to the end of one and beginning another. It's time to make our current, distressing world go away so it may be replaced with another, more loving, harmonious way of being.In Making the World Go Away Ruth L. Miller, Ph.D., a futurist-anthropologist and minister, helps us understand why and how our old world is giving way to a new one, now - and why that's a good thing. Drawing on her extensive research in culture studies and consciousness, as well as her own healing practice, Dr. Miller helps us release our own past "programming" to create space for a new world - the one we were born to experience.

Thomas Troward laid out the foundation principles and processes of what he called Mental Science, and is now known as New Thought, a hundred years ago. This book is the last book in the Beyond Words/Atria series called the Library of Hidden Knowledge. It was begun in 2012 and completed in spring of 2021--the perfect moment to immerse oneself in the clear wisdom of this amazing man. His ideas, expressed in extremely lengthy sentences and paragraphs, have become the basis of the mental science and New Thought movement. They have transformed lives for over a hundred years through Unity, Divine Science, and Spiritual Living centers and churches, and have inspired the works of motivational teachers ranging from Napoleon Hill, Wallace Wattles, and Earl Nightengale to Rhonda Byrne in The Secret.As with all the Library of Hidden Knowledge books, this one has two parts. The first part is my "translation," or interpretation, of the original writings from their Victorian prose into modern form and language, with summary points and exercises. The second is Troward's original text.
