In Case You're Still Here by Demond M James Pdf

Imagine for one second that you’re with someone, maybe a friend or relative, spouse or co-worker, and before you could barely blink your eyes, something happens and you look up and they are gone without a trace, without a clue. You look and feel all around but they are not there. You yell out for them, but still there is no answer. They just disappeared or vanished into thin air. The only thing remaining from them is maybe the clothing that they were wearing when they were with you. Things happened so fast that you didn’t see what happened to them. They were so quick that even the cameras and video surveillance didn’t capture what happened. Things changed in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, and at the speed of lightning. “Then shall two be in the field, the one shall be taken and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken and the other left”(Matthew 24:40-41). Now in enters chaos.

We Are Still Here by CJ Beuhler Pdf

Hinoch has always had a special connection to his native land of Labrador, so when the young Inuit artist is guided to the isolated site of a plane crash by a raven, he is relatively unfazed. It is there Hinoch finds a gold ring belonging to one of the former crew members, a ring containing the spirit of the lost owner. Hinoch knows he must reunite the ring with the owner’s family in order to save the man’s spirit. Hinoch’s efforts to find the lost man’s family finally pay off when a young woman named Joanna visits him in his isolated community. The two immediately hit it off, and Joanna is drawn to the simple Labrador lifestyle and the traditional and spiritual ways of the Inuit. Hinoch and Joanna begin to see themselves sharing their lives together, but then Hinoch drops a bombshell: he’s been having shamanic visions of the world being destroyed by overpopulation and climate change. Now he’s unsure if Joanna will be willing to join him in relocating his people to the safety of the wilderness.

You Are Still Here by Kyogen Carlson Pdf

“There’s so much to learn and so much to know. It’s good to keep moving forward. And yet whatever we have is, in a very profound way, absolutely complete and always enough.”—Kyogen Carlson Kyogen Carlson (1948–2014) was a Soto Zen priest whose writings, teachings, and commitment to interfaith dialogue supported and inspired countless Buddhist, Christian, and other spiritual practitioners. Set to the rhythm of the seasons, You Are Still Here is the first published collection of Carlson’s dharma talks. It illuminates key elements of contemporary Zen practice, such as the experience of zazen meditation, the pitfalls and intimacies of the teacher-student relationship and of sangha life, the role of community in personal practice, and the importance of interfaith dialogue reaching across political lines. Carlson’s teachings also underscore his commitment to lay Buddhist practice and women’s lineages, both significant contributions to American Buddhism. The beautifully distilled talks have been carefully edited and introduced by Sallie Jiko Tisdale, a respected writer, teacher, and Dharma heir to Carlson. Her masterful presentation highlights the significance of these illuminating teachings, while preserving Carlson’s distinct style of authenticity, humor, and conviction on the Zen path.

We're Still Here by Jennifer M. Silva Pdf

The economy has been brutal to American workers for several decades. The chance to give one's children a better life than one's own -- the promise at the heart of the American Dream -- is withering away. While onlookers assume those suffering in marginalized working-class communities will instinctively rise up, the 2016 election threw into sharp relief how little we know about how the working-class translate their grievances into politics. In We're Still Here, Jennifer M. Silva tells a deep, multi-generational story of pain, place, and politics that will endure long after the Trump administration. Drawing on over 100 interviews with black, white, and Latino working-class residents of a declining coal town in Pennsylvania, Silva reveals how the decline of the American Dream is lived and felt. The routines and rhythms of traditional working-class life such as manual labor, unions, marriage, church, and social clubs have diminished. In their place, she argues, individualized strategies for coping with pain, and finding personal redemption, have themselves become sources of political stimulus and reaction among the working class. Understanding how generations of Democratic voters come to reject the social safety net and often politics altogether requires moving beyond simple partisanship into a maze of addiction, joblessness, family disruption, violence, and trauma. Instead, Silva argues that we need to uncover the relationships, loyalties, longings, and moral visions that underlie and generate the civic and political disengagement of working-class people. We're Still Here provides powerful, on the ground evidence of the remaking of working-class identity and politics that will spark new tensions but also open up the possibility for shifting alliances and new possibilities.

Seasonal Storms by Steve Weatherspoon Pdf

Life is a beautifully, scary journey through seasons and the storms that accompany them. Just as nature has seasons, so do we. There are seeds inside us all. What do we need in order to make those seeds bloom? Is it possible that the perfect ingredients necessary for this process are in someone else? We all know that spring comes to bring new life. Fully equipped with the ingredients necessary for nature's seeds, could we have what is necessary for one another's seeds? There's a storm on the horizon, a seasonal storm to remove what's no longer needed and lay the foundation necessary for growth. Now, what if the potential damage of the coming storm causes more fear than comfort? It's said, that flowers need water to grow, that it has to rain. Most can't see the beauty in the storm, and see them as simply loud, chaotic, and unpredictable. Perhaps storms are good and necessary, as opposed to simply being bad and destructive. In that small cafe, Jaron and MaKayla were about to find out the answer to these questions.
