Love, Lost by Heather King Pdf

When I lost the love of my life, the pain was indescribable. I moved just before it all happened so was away from all my friends, who although sympathetic could not imagine how afraid and lonely I was. I found a counsellor through friends and was able to express my fears and anger. He suggested that I might find a way of expressing all those feelings on paper. I did and it came out as poetry, now printed in this book. It is my wish that others going through the worst time of their lives might find comfort in the poems.

Labor's Love Lost by Andrew J. Cherlin Pdf

Two generations ago, young men and women with only a high-school degree would have entered the plentiful industrial occupations which then sustained the middle-class ideal of a male-breadwinner family. Such jobs have all but vanished over the past forty years, and in their absence ever-growing numbers of young adults now hold precarious, low-paid jobs with few fringe benefits. Facing such insecure economic prospects, less-educated young adults are increasingly forgoing marriage and are having children within unstable cohabiting relationships. This has created a large marriage gap between them and their more affluent, college-educated peers. In Labor’s Love Lost, noted sociologist Andrew Cherlin offers a new historical assessment of the rise and fall of working-class families in America, demonstrating how momentous social and economic transformations have contributed to the collapse of this once-stable social class and what this seismic cultural shift means for the nation’s future. Drawing from more than a hundred years of census data, Cherlin documents how today’s marriage gap mirrors that of the Gilded Age of the late-nineteenth century, a time of high inequality much like our own. Cherlin demonstrates that the widespread prosperity of working-class families in the mid-twentieth century, when both income inequality and the marriage gap were low, is the true outlier in the history of the American family. In fact, changes in the economy, culture, and family formation in recent decades have been so great that Cherlin suggests that the working-class family pattern has largely disappeared. Labor's Love Lost shows that the primary problem of the fall of the working-class family from its mid-twentieth century peak is not that the male-breadwinner family has declined, but that nothing stable has replaced it. The breakdown of a stable family structure has serious consequences for low-income families, particularly for children, many of whom underperform in school, thereby reducing their future employment prospects and perpetuating an intergenerational cycle of economic disadvantage. To address this disparity, Cherlin recommends policies to foster educational opportunities for children and adolescents from disadvantaged families. He also stresses the need for labor market interventions, such as subsidizing low wages through tax credits and raising the minimum wage. Labor's Love Lost provides a compelling analysis of the historical dynamics and ramifications of the growing number of young adults disconnected from steady, decent-paying jobs and from marriage. Cherlin’s investigation of today’s “would-be working class” shines a much-needed spotlight on the struggling middle of our society in today’s new Gilded Age.

When Your Family's Lost a Loved One by Nancy Guthrie,David Guthrie Pdf

All families eventually face the loss of a loved one. When it happens, it can place great strain on a marriage, as well as on other relationships. That's partly because we don't know what to do with our feelings and partly because every family member grieves in his or her own way. In this book, Nancy and David Guthrie explore the family dynamics involved when a loved one dies—and debunk some myths about family grief. Through their own experiences of losing two young children and interviews with those who've faced losing spouses and parents, they show how grief can actually pull a family closer together rather than tearing it apart.

Love Lost in Translation by K. Renato Lings Pdf

Love Lost in Translation systematically examines the biblical stories and passages that are generally assumed to deal with, or comment on, homoerotic relationships: Noah and Ham, Sodom and Gomorrah, Leviticus 18:22, Deuteronomy 23:1718, Judges 19, Romans 1:2627, and 1 Corinthians 6:9. K. Renato Lings convincingly demonstrates that mistranslations of these texts into Greek, Latin and other languages occurred early, and that serious errors continue to be committed by translators today. This explains the painful controversy about same-sex relationships, which has rocked Christian churches for decades. Love Lost in Translation proposes a fresh approach to translating the Bible by means of linguistic and literary criteria. As demonstrated throughout this ground-breaking book, the method enables readers to become acquainted with the literary sophistication, psychological insights and spiritual depth of the Bible. Combining meticulous scholarship with an accessible style, Love Lost in Translation provides a much-needed infusion of essential learning into a subject that affects millions of Bible readers today.

A Love Lost by C.R. Rice Pdf

This is not a love story: it’s a tragedy. Radnar and his friends were fun–loving boys, ready to take on the world, but he never wanted to be a warrior or lead armies like his powerful father. In truth, he never really knew what he wanted until he met Nessa the summer before his 16th birthday. From the moment their eyes met, his dark world was filled with light and his bitter heart swelled with hope. In her, he saw his always and forever. Everything changed on Radnar’s Ascension Day when Nessa was forced to leave, and he had to accept his new, terrible powers—and the grip they would have on his life. As fate would have it, Radnar crosses paths with Nessa again years later. Like the first rays breaking through a torrential rainstorm, he sees his salvation creeping above the horizon. Light has been brought back into his life. Only this isn’t a love story, it’s a tragedy … and fate is a cruel mistress.

Love Lost by Bonnie Keefe Pdf

Every chapter would be her journey to find each of her ex-boyfriend just to figure out why they left her and every answer she gets is something she never expected to hear but every answer provides her a glimpse of herself she never thought was there. She realizes some painful truths like how she hurt people just as much as they hurt her, like how the people she thought really loved her never actually did, and how she messed up many of the good things she could have had simply because she was never satisfied. The one thing, though, that she got out of it is the realization that the one true love she has always been looking for was always there beside her.

Love Lost by Margo Masri Pdf

“. . . I think it’s time to move on,” he reported coldly. “If you want, I could drive you home now. We don’t need to be in each other’s company any longer than necessary.” “But you said you liked me.” I needed clarification. It didn’t make sense. “I did like you. Before. It passed.

No Love Lost by Don Savant Pdf

Everyone has loved and lost on their mission to find "the one". Some breakups are easy, yet some can be difficult and can leave you with a bitter taste in your mouth towards the process of finding love and the individuals that just don't seem to understand what love means, or just don't care who they hurt in the process of finding the one they want. Or in other cases, they've been hurt so badly that they aren't sure how to accept and treat someone when the love is there. No Love Lost is a poetic testimony and letters, if you will, to the ones that Don Savant has loved and lost.

I Lost My Love in Baghdad by Michael Hastings Pdf

The “wrenching” (Rachel Maddow, The Rachel Maddow Show) first book by acclaimed journalist Michael Hastings (1980-2013), whose unflinching Rolling Stone article “Runaway General” ended the military career of General Stanley A. McChrystal. At age twenty-five, Michael Hastings arrived in Baghdad to cover the war in Iraq for Newsweek. He had at his disposal a little Hemingway romanticism and all the apparatus of a twenty-first-century reporter -- cell phones, high-speed Internet access, digital video cameras, fixers, drivers, guards, translators. In startling detail, he describes the chaos, the violence, the never-ending threats of bomb and mortar attacks, the front lines that can be a half mile from the Green Zone, that can be anywhere. This is a new kind of war: private security companies follow their own rules or lack thereof; soldiers in combat get instant messages from their girlfriends and families; members of the Louisiana National Guard watch Katrina's decimation of their city on a TV in the barracks. Back in New York, Hastings had fallen in love with Andi Parhamovich, a young idealist who worked for Air America. A year into their courtship, Andi followed Michael to Iraq, taking a job with the National Democratic Institute. Their war-zone romance is another window into life in Baghdad. They call each other pet names; they make plans for the future; they fight, usually because each is fearful for the other's safety; and they try to figure out how to get together, when it means putting bodyguards and drivers in jeopardy.Then Andi goes on a dangerous mission for her new employer -- a meeting at the Iraqi Islamic Party headquarters that ends in catastrophe. Searing, unflinching, and revelatory, I Lost My Love in Baghdad is both a raw, brave, brilliantly observed account of the war and a heartbreaking story of one life lost to it.
