Once upon a time, we were told "F*ck your feelings!" - and although we were never intended to take that advice to heart, many of us did. This book will help you translate and unravel the years of piled-on 'stuff' that you don't want to talk about - without forcing you to talk about it. There's no need to reopen old wounds, and it's not always necessary to feel better. From my own lived experiences of feeling like everything is f*cked to the joy of realizing that it's not - or if it is it may not matter, this book is a lighthearted invitation to look at your life and the way you perceive it, and also a guide to understanding the feeling of feelings and why they matter.

Lorsque sieur George Gordon Byron écrivit: L'amour d'un homme n'occupe qu'une partie de sa vie d'homme, l'amour d'une femme occupe toute son existence, il ne me connaissait pas. Cela fait des années que tu t'es garée sur mon coeur et, depuis, je n'ai pas réussi à t'y déloger. Je t'ai aimée depuis le tout premier jour. Mon amour a été tout de suite si fort que ma tête ne pouvait que suivre la décision de mon coeur. Quand elle devait reloger dans la nouvelle ville pour y continuer ses études, Pélagie était loin de se douter que son passé pourrait revenir perturber le cours normal de son séjour. Qui est le mystérieux soupirant qui lui dépose ces mots doux sans jamais dévoiler son identité ? Est-ce le mystérieux voisin ? Quel rôle vient jouer son ex dans cette nouvelle page de sa vie ? La clé du bonheur se trouve-t-elle dans son passé ou plutôt dans l'avenir ?

One day while praying and grieving, my heart was filled with such sorrow particularly over the loss of my precious son, through tear-filled eyes, I began to cry out to God asking, "Why my son Lord? He didn't do anything. He was such a wonderful loving son to me. Why my precious son?" His reply shocked me to reality. What I heard Him say, caused me to feel so ashamed, that I had even dared to question my Creator, The Almighty God and Giver of life. He answered me, "You question me about calling your son home. I too had a Son whom I loved so very much, He became a sacrificial lamb, so that you could have forgiveness of sins and eternal life. The pain you feel for your loss could never match the pain of knowing when my Son was suffering on the cross, I had to turn away, leaving Him feeling forsaken, because I could not look upon sin, which is why His blood was shed so that you could be covered in His righteousness. I know that I can never repay Him for all He has done for me, but I feel from the depths of my soul, that using the literary gift Father God has so graciously bestowed upon me thru His mercy, love, and kindness, is my small way of saying thank you Lord Jesus for paying my sin debt in full. If you are a Mother or Father, that has experienced the Loss of a son or a daughter, this book will truly bless you with God's Grace. Just have FAITH in God, and He will surely see you thru.

In a world saturated with war, political corruption, extreme inequality, and environmental decay, it becomes difficult to create and adhere to a moral code that allows a person to successfully navigate the ethical challenges of human society. Human societies in the past have also born witness to the same social ills that plague us today. Throughout history there have been many prophets and sages who have implored their fellow citizens to avoid unethical behavior and instead to choose a path of virtue. One such sage was Confucius. Nearly 2500 years ago he advised his students to be examples of "Manhood-at-its-Best" through adherence to maintaining proper harmonious relationships. I have given the concept of "Manhood-at-its-Best" a modern, gender-neutral update, as well as additional relationships to improve one's moral development. It is my hope that this book, which uses the wisdom from cultures both present and past, will help those seekingto live a virtuous life find the harmony and justice they are searching for.

यह सर्व विदित है कि भारतीय संस्कृति विश्व की सबसे प्राचीन सनातन संस्कृति है।इसके विभिन्न तत्वों को आज पूरे विश्व में स्वीकार किया जा रहा है। भारतीय सनातन संस्कृति के अद्वितीय महत्व के कारण ही इसे विश्व पटल पर गुरु की उपाधि से सम्मानित किया गया है। भारतीय सनातन संस्कृति में व्यक्ति के संपूर्ण जीवन में तीर्थयात्रा का विशेष वर्णन है और इसी उद्देश्य को ध्यान में रखकर समय-समय पर अनेक मंदिरों, जलाशयों, घाटों आदि का निर्माण किया गया है।वैदिक काल, रामायण, महाभारत काल से लेकर पौराणिक काल तक सतयुग, त्रेतायुग और द्वापरयुग था। जिसे अवतार युग भी कहा जाता है। अवतार युग में देवताओं ने अवतार लेकर पृथ्वी पर अनेक अच्छे आदर्श प्रस्तुत किये। इन देवांश पुरुषों की जन्मस्थली और कर्मस्थली को स्वत ही तीर्थ कहा गया क्योंकि ऋषि मुनि की तपस्या के फलस्वरूप ये पवित्र हो गये।कालान्तर में तत्कालीन राजाओं द्वारा देवांश की कर्मभूमि एवं जन्मस्थली पर अनेक मन्दिरों, जलाशयों, कुओं, बावड़ियों, घाटों आदि का निर्माण कराया गया। जिसका एक उद्देश्य भारतीय संस्कृति की रक्षा करना था जिसे विदेशी आक्रमणकारियों ने नष्ट करने की पूरी कोशिश की और दूसरा उद्देश्य भारतीय अर्थव्यवस्था को ऊपर उठाना था। क्योंकि भारत अपने इतिहास और संस्कृति के लिए विश्व पटल पर प्रसिद्ध है, इसलिए समय के साथ भारत दुनिया के अन्य देशों के लिए एक रहस्य बन गया। यहां के तीर्थस्थलों में ऐसी कई कहानियां चित्रित और वर्णित हैं जो आज के वैज्ञानिक युग में उत्पन्न होने वाली समस्याओं का समाधान प्रस्तुत करती हैं। इस पुस्तक में भारतीय संस्कृति एवं भारतीय तीर्थों से संबंधित अनेक जिज्ञासाओं का समाधान देने का प्रयास किया गया है।
