This book is meant to be a tool. It's intended to be a guide to help those who are desiring and searching for a better life. A happier more fulfilled life. The Articles of LYFE is a collection of lessons learned. The 8 author / coaches came together with separate lessons that we all have learned over the coarse of our lives thus far. Yet we all have one common goal, and that's to help you become and BetterY OU. And that's because the only way you can have a BetterLYFE is to become a BetterYOU. You might have also noticed that in the title, "The Articles of LYFE," the word life is spelled differently. It is spelled L Y F E, and that's on purpose; it is not a mistype. LYFE stands for Landscape Your Future Everyday. I purposefully chose to use the word landscape because our minds are the real estates of our existence, Foreword vii and we're talking about mental real estate that manifests into a tangible landscapable piece of property. Our reality is the land on which we design, develop, and build our present & future selves / lives. The landscape relates to the layers of soil and connects that to the states of consciousness in the mind. So when you think about your mind, relate your result in life to the organic layer, which is the grass, the trees, the flowers, or the lack thereof, like a desert. Then you have the topsoil. The topsoil is going to be your conscious mind. The subsoil is going to be your subconscious mind. Then you have what they call the parental layer or the broken material. This is all of the stored-up situations, experiences, and events of your life. The quality of this layer will directly reflect the level or quality of understanding and definitions that you have attached to each and every event and situation of your life. The final layer is the bedrock, and bedrock is going to be who you are to the core. It's who you are down to your true identity, which is something you can never change because, no matter what you do to yourself, you will always be you. I hope you will find this book inspirational, empowering, enabling, and transformative. I hope it truly serves as a guide and a navigational and developmental tool to help you landscape the best future possible. What should you expect? Expect lessons, tips, and stories from different coaches, who are people just like you, and just like you, we all want a better life, and we're doing that by bettering our mindsets & life relationships. Keep that in mind as you read this book & be blessed.

Tom Salvatori: A Lifetime in Music - Sheet Music Collection - Solo Guitar. Tom Salvatori (b.1958) has been quietly composing original instrumentals for the nylon string guitar in his own self-constructed corner of the music world for over fifty years. All told, Salvatori has composed, produced, and recorded 150+ guitar pieces, which have achieved over forty million streams and downloads across the digital service platforms to date. "Tom Salvatori: A Lifetime in Music" (2023), is Salvatori's 3rd Published Sheet Music Book, available directly from Salvatori Productions, Inc. (salvatoriproductions.com). It is a 51-page career retrospective collection that features nineteen previously unpublished solo nylon string guitar pieces composed by Salvatori between 1995 and 2023. The Sheet Music Book also introduces 'Patate Piccole' (Small Potatoes), a short story told in parable form that reflects on Salvatori's upcoming retirement as he looks forward to the pleasant experience of sharing his guitar compositions with the next generation of guitarists. Salvatori received a press review early in his composing career that described his work as being "...of the small potato variety." Instead of feeling slighted, he embraced the style description and adopted it as a new nickname. It is likely that that comment stuck in his craw as unfinished business because decades later, 'Patate Piccole' came pouring out of him...in just a couple hours! In addition, "Tom Salvatori: A Lifetime in Music" features an accompanying CD, blog posts, press reviews and a brief scrapbook-styled Autobiography (including pictures) that summarize Salvatori's lifetime in music and his unique composing perspective for the nylon string guitar.

Ever since my world came crashing down around me when I was 16 years old, as I confronted the sexual abuse of my childhood and everything that stemmed from it, I have had a guiding motto in my life that has been instrumental in helping me move forward..."one day at a time." It has been my experience that, within that manageable segment of time, you can handle just about anything life throws at you. And yes, sometimes-when the going gets especially rough, and the horizon appears extra dark-that "one day" can become "one second." Yet regardless of the measurement, the principle holds true...as the sun sets on today, a new day dawns tomorrow-a blank page to begin writing something new.For me, as I journeyed from victim to victor and learned one day at a time how to survive, my daily blank pages began to fill up with personal thoughts, reflections, and insights as I wrote down my experiences of finding hope in my heartache, faith in my pain, and understanding in my despair. These daily thoughts serve as the basis for this book. My hope is that something shared will help inspire and uplift you.This book is dedicated to all those who have walked-or are currently walking-the difficult path from victim to survivor. I believe in you! You are worth it! Begin your journey of finding hope in each day as you navigate your own path of healing...one day at a time.

"Sanghvi's Baby Vamp is a kind of counter-allegorical figure that has internalized Milton's Sin, giving her a new post-Miltonic afterlife...""Confessions of a Baby Vamp: Letters to John Milton is an electrifying ("high-voltage" is right!) epistolary engagement with Milton's Paradise Lost. In particular, it takes up the problem of Milton's allegorical figure Sin, who engenders Death after being raped by her father Satan. Death, in turn, rapes Sin, who gives birth to the hellhounds, which continuously traumatize Sin by returning to her womb to feast on her bowels before "bursting forth / Afresh." This is, to be sure, a theodical problem; so too does it reprise, with an intensive gruesomeness, scenes of sexual violence and tropes of female monstrosity from classical antiquity. "I blame you," says Sanghvi's Baby Vamp to Milton, "for not sparing her from the cruel, violent, and misogynistic ways of human reality." Nevertheless, it is important to note that Sanghvi is writing with as much as writing against Milton."- Michael Leong, Excerpts from Confessions of a Baby Vamp: Letters to John Milton "Preface"

D. J. O'Connor has kept a journal of amusing family stories for more than forty-five years. Whenever family, friends, or guests come over, he adds some tales. Many of the stories involve his sister-in-law, Kelly, who has Down syndrome. Her perspective on life is refreshing, positive, and sometimes hilarious. Her special life has touched so many people. To her, every man is "very handsome" and every woman is "beautiful." The rest of us are more judgmental, but Kelly looks more deeply into the total person. To her, everyone has value. She looks only at the good in someone, and she has little interest in the negative. She assumes that people view her the same way-although she has had to deal with thoughtless people who stare because of differences in appearance. In this book, the author celebrates his special sister-in-law, including her wondrous ability to make everyone laugh and appreciate each day. Take a short walk in her shoes. They are so comfortable!

Steven Manuel gives us back the elegiac. He gives us back the music that left Anglophone poetry in the post-Modern Seventies. Take this title and dedication: A CHILD'S GARDEN / for Ronald Johnson, / Stan Brakhage, / & Joey Ramone - it pretty much sets out the range of prosody in this book. Not since Pound's Cantos have we heard poems with such an embroidered match between melody and content. Ingenious, yet for all their passionate knowing, they enchant with a quirky vocabulary and mid-century brevity. There's always another sparse Mother Goose stanza about to emerge. Witty and thorny, allusive scraps of classic authors, tangents, songs overheard. These spry, erudite lines hurry right along festina lente.Birds carol generation; poplarhabitations; eyries; eggs;the newmountingof a day'sIcarianisolations. -Thomas Meyer

This is a photo book that explores how late capitalism breaks down bonds between people through the observation of the family dynamic of a Ghanian-Nigerian author and her social network. The author uses traditional West African Ananse stories, combined with collegiate theses, to highlight how deceit and trickery has corrupted our modern society.

William Shakespeare's tragedies encompassed themes of murder and greed (Macbeth), love and fate (Romeo and Juliet), misplaced trust and gullibility (Othello), unreasonable expectation and misplaced fatherly devotion (King Lear), as well as historically-based politics and the power of rhetoric on the masses (Julius Caesar). But Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark, is a tragedy that addresses multiple themes in a psycho-drama of a play-within-a-play format including greed, incest, word-play, political gamesmanship, plans gone awry and murder gone afoul. But it also addresses the resolve of one person's need for revenge for a murder he needs to prove was not some contrivance of a disenchanted ghost condemned to wander aimlessly until his death is avenged by his son, the Prince of Denmark. Shakespeare's brilliance in presenting character development through dialogue that contains flying barbs and flaying retorts flows floridly through endless passages of blank verse among those of conversational prose. Therein lis the problems in understanding much of what Shakespeare masks in his lengthy passages replete with literary devices.Therefore, as I have done with the other tragedies (Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and Julius Caesar), I have brought the action to the reader with language of the 21st century while maintaining, where I could, the blank verse and imagery of the original text. Hamlet is a play written for the Elizabethans, as were the others; but its themes are applicable universally throughout world-wide societies. No one can justly replicate Shakespeare's output or capture the beauty of his language that is becoming older by the day. But, because his message is so important, it deserves to be made available to those readers who have not had the opportunity to digest it as it was written. Enjoy the ride. It is a long one but it is direct.

Dear World, The trip didn't go how I had expected, but I still made the best of it. This book doesn't just belong to Me, it belongs to all of you. Use with caution and hold true to the words between these covers. Justin
