"When the Waves Subside: There is Hope" is written by a daughter for her parents out of appreciation for their strength, love, and perseverance since the disappearance of their youngest daughter, Heidi M. Allen. My parents started to look for glass rocks while they were dating and after my sister and I joined the family, the tradition continued. "When the Waves Subside" represents the similarities between broken glass and the parent grieving the loss of their child.
As a child I watched my Mom, Gram, great-aunts, and aunts dedicate time to send cards and share baked good with those needing a pick-me-up. Births, deaths, wedding anniversaries, and celebrations were recorded on "the" calendar. At the close of each year, they were transferred to following year's calendar so no one would be forgotten. A name written meant there was a reason to pray and encourage someone on that date. In addition to prayer, tangible remembrance and celebration blessed them too on occasion. A tradition I pray to pass on to my daughter, grandchildren, and hopefully YOU This book is divided by the months of the year. Each month then has four categories to organize your information. These are: birthdays, wedding anniversaries, Anniversaries of Death, and miscellaneous dates someone might need a little encouragement. Keep this resource with your address book, near the telephone, or in your purse. You never know when there will be cause to add a new life event and opportunity to bless and encourage someone else.
Is love “blind” when it comes to gender? For women, it just might be. This unsettling and original book offers a radical new understanding of the context-dependent nature of female sexuality. Lisa M. Diamond argues that for some women, love and desire are not rigidly heterosexual or homosexual but fluid, changing as women move through the stages of life, various social groups, and, most important, different love relationships. This perspective clashes with traditional views of sexual orientation as a stable and fixed trait. But that view is based on research conducted almost entirely on men. Diamond is the first to study a large group of women over time. She has tracked one hundred women for more than ten years as they have emerged from adolescence into adulthood. She summarizes their experiences and reviews research ranging from the psychology of love to the biology of sex differences. Sexual Fluidity offers moving first-person accounts of women falling in and out of love with men or women at different times in their lives. For some, gender becomes irrelevant: “I fall in love with the person, not the gender,” say some respondents. Sexual Fluidity offers a new understanding of women’s sexuality—and of the central importance of love.
Who doesn't love a bit of a scare, especially at bedtime? We've all heard the old stories of hooks, hags, and haunted graveyards, but the thrill of a good creep out never gets old. Creepy Shorts, a new collection of original ghostly and ghastly tales, will keep kids huddled under the covers with a flashlight well past lights out. The heroes and heroines of Creepy Shorts battle severed hands and crazed teddy bears, eerie living reflections and vengeful closet monsters. A group of middle schoolers is even sent on a nightmare bus ride straight to hell. Through it all these kids must rely on their own smarts and strength to wiggle their way out of magical and macabre mayhem. In the spirit of Alvin Schwartz's classic Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark, Creepy Shorts is blood-chilling good fun for young teens.
