For everyone who's ever wanted their life to be different but feels like they're stuck in gear, Own Your Life explores how we can leverage adversity and move from crisis, challenge, or loss to a place of thriving in our lives.There is no easy way out of pain yet we often think something is wrong if we find ourselves revisiting the same old stories with no new ending. We're told that if we just think happy thoughts, all will be well, and then feel like failures when it isn't. How then do we transform our narratives and embrace our strengths and weaknesses? In Own Your Life, Lise Porter, a licensed psychotherapist and survivor of her mother's suicide, passionately asserts that when we fully own the ups and downs of our lives, our personal wounds actually become gifts that serve us and the world at large. Through thirty-five short narratives all dealing with specific themes and tools pertaining to transformation, Porter debunks stigmas associated with grief, loss, and trauma and shares insights that inform, inspire, and soothe- providing readers hope and teaching them how to metabolize adversity so they can tolerate, integrate, and transcend those experiences."I highly recommend 'Own Your Life' to all those who despair, struggling to overcome life's challenges. It is beautiful in its simplicity, profound in its wisdom." Mary D. Clark, Ph.D, Psychologist"This is an ever useful book for all of us who live, grieve, love, cry and want to keep expressing our best."Michael Spatuzzi, DACM, L.Ac."Using her own tragic story to outline how we can recover from life's unbearable blows, Lise Porter models the tremendous courage it takes to do so, planting seeds of hope and meaning along the way. A must-read for anyone going through a rough time, 'Own Your Life' is a brave and captivating guidebook."Blair Glaser, MA, LCAT psychotherapist

Potter's Raid: The Union Cavalry's Boldest Expedition in Eastern North Carolina

Potter's Raid: The Union Cavalry's Boldest Expedition in Eastern North Carolina

David A. Norris

DRAM Tree Books
2008
nidottu
As early as 1862, Union forces held a sizeable portion of eastern North Carolina's northern coastal region. While blockade runners dashed in and out of the port at Wilmington, safe from Yankee interference thanks to the mighty guns of Fort Fisher, it was a different story just ninety miles to the north. In New Bern, it was the Union army that was in control. Confederate military leaders and civilians kept a wary eye on what was going on behind the Yankee lines occupied by Ambrose Burnside's Billy Yanks, wondering what mischief the enemy might be up to, and when they might strike into the countryside. Their fears were realized when Union cavalry under the command of Brigadier General Edward Potter cut a swath through eastern North Carolina in what would be the war's largest Union raid in the eastern part of the state. From Kinston and Goldsboro, to Greenville, Rocky Mount, and Tarboro, Federal and Confederate troops clashed on foot and horseback while civilians suffered and slaves took advantage of the confusion to make a dash for freedom. In this book, historian David A. Norris brings all of the suspense and drama of Potter's raid to life with a narrative that will have you on the edge of your seat. For the Civil War buff, this book is a top-notch story about a little known episode of North Carolina's wartime past. For the casual reader, it is a tale full of the drama, heroism, and tragedy that is the hallmark of a gripping story - one that happens to be true.

Potter and Patron in Classical Athens

Potter and Patron in Classical Athens

T. B. L. Webster

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
Pottery is the one industry in ancient Athens of which we have some detailed knowledge. In this book, originally published in 1972, Professor Webster examines the workshops, the painted pots and their purchasers over the period 600–400 B.C. The first chapter assembles the evidence for the size and organization of the industry, which seems to have consisted of a dozen or so family workshops, surviving through several generations and producing, besides painted pottery, black-glaze pottery and lamps, moulded vases and plain ware. In stock vases the relation of the scene, whether from everyday life or mythology, to the shape or use of the vase and the popularity of different scenes and treatments at different times are discussed. The history of the subjects of painted pottery is also a history of the taste of the purchasers. A considerable number of special commissions can be detected either because the scene is unique or because the names of individuals are attached to figures in stock scenes. Various kinds of evidence for purchase are given in the last chapter, which demonstrates that the majority of vases were equally acceptable for home use, dedication, offering at the tomb or for export, new or second-hand. It is seen that the pace was set by large consumers who might order new vases whenever they gave a symposium, and that those whose names are known were the leading men of Athens.
