His first visit to the islands was in 1974, the first of forty-one in total!Providing a glimpse of Hawaiian culture, history, music, art, and daily lifestyles to the reader, A Fleeting Glimpse of Paradise was inspired by Craig's time spent with special residents of Hawaii who shared a special "Spirit of Aloha" during his forty-one visits to the islands. His hope is that during your visit, you spend time with local residents of the islands and "talk story" with them, rather than simply going there for an "Aloha" shirt, flower lei, or some other souvenir.This beautiful collection of anecdotes, inspired poems, and special stories you can't get from travel books encourages readers to find ways to conserve the natural beauty of the islands-and to make the very best of their experience in this magical utopia.
Between the years of 1944 and 1963, Dr. Colm McAindriu was just a kid, a Black kid living in the Jim Crow Mississippi Delta. His story brings to light what living day and night under the threat of death looks like for a Black kid in this era. Should he look at the white girl, or dream of her and tell someone or be caught doing so? His mother forced him to help her raise her remaining 12 children and demanded that he kill his prized pig to feed her family. McAindriu's childhood was rife with small moments of joy and learning, coupled with working in cottonfields, pain both physical and emotional, and being the Man of the House.
Ilhenayhl translates to "Feast" in the Squamish Language. I have written this book from my perspective as an Aboriginal Woman who has returned to eating and living in a healthier way. The book is about gluten free cooking and offers a view of one family's journey to be healthier and tasty approach to eating as well.The recipes offered are the best from our trial and errors and adjustments of old family recipes and creations we have as a family created. I share the experiences and stories to bring a new perspective to people. I hope you enjoy trying these recipes!My own health forced me to look at food and providing for my family in a better way and teaching my children to eat better so they could develop good habits about food.I view food in my own culture from a unique perspective and hope to share that view with my readers. For the first nation people we have long held food as part of ceremony as well as for food. It is an integral part of our culture and spiritual ceremonies.My vision is to help people understand that Gluten free cooking can be easy, fun and delicious.

How many times as we were growing up were we told to "put your shoes on"? It sounded like a sensible idea. Ever since durable footwear became more widely accessible a few generations ago, individuals have valued the protection they provide. It changed the way people walked since they were no longer concerned about the discomfort of walking on rough or pointy surfaces. You'll notice that your walk changes from walking in shoes to walking barefoot. When you walk barefoot, you take extra care to land on your toes so they can act as shock absorbers. You most likely walk erratically in shoes, stomping on the ground and landing on your heel because you're afraid of stepping on something sharp. You are aware that your shoes will keep your feet safe. However, wearing shoes more often and going barefoot or in light shoes less has had an unanticipated effect on most people's poor posture and back pain. Discover a tried-and-true, yet mostly ignored, healthy walking technique by reading this book.

As the sun set with crimson colors. I placed bright summer flowers on each grave. 'Help me to do what I should do with my life,' I said to my sons. It was clear what my path should be.
