Betrayal: My Journey through South Africa by Matthew Pilkone Pdf

Matthew Pilkone shares a fascinating story of struggle, love, and loss in apartheid-era South Africa in this memoir. Born in the rural farming community of Middelburg, it's not until his late teens that Matthew moves to Cape Town, where he falls in love with Amanda. The couple gets serious fast, and when it is time for Matthew to decide whether to join the police, it is an easy choice: joining the police gives him a guaranteed career path that enables him to take care of his widowed mum and Amanda. After graduating from a training college, he's sent to the crime-ridden city of Johannesburg. As a result of his excellent service record, he's singled out for an elite training course, and although he's frequently in peril, he eventually returns to Cape Town and marries Amanda. Life seems perfect, but it unravels when he discovers a terrible betrayal that ends with him leaving South Africa and losing everything he'd worked so hard to accomplish.

My Journey Through a Changing South by Charlie Grainger Pdf

Charlie Grainger has lived through eight decades of positive change in his favorite place: the American South. Born on an unpaved Alabama country road during the Great Depression, he almost died twice before he was two, nearly drowned as a teenager, and was in a near plane crash as a young man. His family didn't have much money, but they didn't need much. Like almost everyone else in their remote part of the planet, theirs was a close-knit community and neighbors cared for neighbors - particular helping poverty-stricken share-croppers and tenant farmers. As a young man, he found the summer of 1955 filled with magic, working as a newspaperman and public relations professional. He wrote radio spots, promoted a walking horse show and rodeo, and publicized rock and roll and country music shows. Later on, as a newspaper reporter, he witnessed an angry mob at a Montgomery bus station waiting for the Freedom Riders. A white public safety director drew his pistol to save him from the mob, but others were not so lucky. View America through the eyes of a country boy who became a successful executive, legislator, and author, and gain a deeper appreciation for how far we've come as a nation.

My Journey Through Homelessness by Stigmatized Hearts Pdf

In this anthology of life narratives, we share our unique stories about becoming homeless, the things we experienced while we were homeless, and our hopes and dreams for the future. All of us have experienced some form of extreme trauma such as serious physical or sexual assault, witnessing severe injury or death, being involved in a life-threatening accident, or having combat experience in a war zone. Many of us have turned to alcohol and drugs to help blunt the effects of these experiences. It is our hope that the real story will help people come to understand and appreciate that being homeless is a condition, not a choice.

My Journey Through Time by Dena Merriam Pdf

My Journey Through Time is a spiritual memoir that sheds light on the workings of karma— the law of cause and effect that creates one’s present circumstances and relationships—as we see it unfold through Dena’s vivid memories of her previous births. We travel back in time as Dena learns of a life in early 20th century Russia, ranging from the overthrow of the Czar through Nazi Germany; then it’s back further to a life in early 19th century America in the Deep South, and before that to a time in Africa in the early 18th century. Her lives in the East—in Persia, Japan, and India—go back to the 15th-17th centuries. With each past life, we can see the way in which it has impacted her present life, how it has stemmed from the end of the previous birth, and how it will influence her next life. Dena Merriam is the founder of an interfaith organization, the Global Peace Initiative of Women. A long-time disciplined meditator, Dena’s access to her past lives brings a clearer awareness and purpose to her present life, and also overcomes any fear of death. The memories are triggered when Dena meets a new person or visits a new place in her current life. The memories bring remembrances of past suffering, but also recollections of spiritual teachers and wise guidance. She has not used and does not advocate past-life regressions or hypnosis as a way to prompt memories to return. Dena has decided to share her story, despite being a very private person, in hopes that it can provide comfort and awaken the inner knowing of your own ongoing journey through time.

My Journey to Safety by Peter Abui Pdf

My life was full of many unexpected experiences. Some were good, and some were bad. During that time of war, mostly bad times occurred more often than good times. Those good times didnt last longer. I think there is a reason why things happen to people, and as always there are results afterward, either good or bad. My hope all these years of war in South Sudan was that someday, there would be a joyful moment for me as the outcome of my horrible suffering. I do not have many good times to remember in my past life since the day I left South Sudan until the day I arrived in the United States of America. However, even then still, I always felt like I was missing something. Of course, indeed, part of me is missing: my whole family was not with me. I never gave up on myself when I was in that horrible situation. I resisted the pain I was facing. I wish of no ravage that I should do against my foes for what they did to me. I wish for the bad day to get over and hope for better tomorrow. I never except the weakness to engage my mind. Instead, I wish to preach the word of peace to my enemies for the sake of freedom in order to save the lives of the innocent. I wish to just speak out only the word of unification. I want to make the world aware of the war situation that was going on in my hometown and convey peace among the people and avoid more lives to be lost. War is wrong; we are all human beings with only one common goal: the soul. However, the only message you should be saying to your enemies is peace. Bear in mind that when you are torturing someone, you are torturing yourself as well. You might not feel it physically but emotionally, maybe not at the moment, but afterward, in the near future, when peace comes and when justice prevails. My parents used to tell me not to be afraid but to brave and strong. The fear one is the one got kill first in battle because they panic and run randomly into ambush.

Lost and Found: My Journey to a Saved Soul by Michelle Marie Damico Pdf

Have you ever wondered if there is more to life then we can see? Are there really other dimensions within our world? If so, who or what resides there? Do angels and demons truly exist? If so, where are they, and how do they function in our world? What does the Bible say about angels and demons? Is there a biblical mystery that has been overlooked? Lost and Found-My Journey to a Saved Soul will answer these questions and more through uncovering one of the mysteries that has been hidden since the fall of mankind. This mystery is broken down through God given biblical revelation regarding the unseen world. This mystery became a living reality when Michelle Damico and her husband, Chris Damico, entered into the unseen realm on a forty-day journey. They had experienced firsthand what it was like to function within another dimension, also known as the spirit world. It was through, unknowingly, opening a door into forms of witchcraft that entered them into the spirit realm, being led to a shaman and tricked into a ritual that they believed was a marital ceremony. This led to her mother being spiritually attacked, therefore, triggering a subarachnoid hemorrhage and her mother's near-death experience; Michelle's husband's possession and cry to be institutionalized; and her children being attacked by spirits that desired to possess their soul. Their home was overpowered with evil and deep darkness, and there was nobody they could turn to but Jesus. All glory and honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for delivering us out of the darkness and into his marvelous light. Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints (God's people) in the Light. For He has rescued us and has drawn us to Himself from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the forgiveness of our sins [and the cancellation of sins' penalty]. He is the exact living image [the essential manifestation] of the unseen God [the visible representation of the invisible], the firstborn [the preeminent one, the sovereign, and the originator] of all creation. -Colossians 1:12-15 (AMP)

FROM A GREAT ESCAPE TO A NEW AWAKENING - MY JOURNEY THROUGH CANCER by Eddy Li Pdf

This is an autobiography of a cancer survivor, a veteran network news journalist. For 38 years since 1971, the author, as Asia video editor for ABC News, chased news stories round the clock, often without sleep. With early retirement in sight, the sudden diagnosis of cancer one day radically changed his lifestyle overnight. By an unusual coincidence, his links to golf were also linked to his discovery of cancer. Here's a man who led an incredible life even before he overcame his battle with cancer. It took more than the conventional means of treatment. His treatment and road to recovery is a revelation. Today, as a cancer survivor and a retiree who now enjoys a healthier and more fulfilling life, the author tells a compelling story of how he entered into the darkest tunnel and emerged, a more vigilant and environmentally aware individual. Eddy Li shares his painful experience, what he has learned about an increasingly hazardous environment and how you can protect yourself from its toxicity.

My Journey Through African Heritage by Alan Donovan Pdf

Alan Donovan was a co-founder of African Heritage, the continent's first pan-African gallery, which became a pioneering craft retail and wholesale operation in Nairobi. He later constructed The African Heritage House, inspired by the mud architecture he discovered while traveling across the continent and was the driving force behind numerous music, dance, costume, and food festivals and exhibitions that traveled the world for over three decades. Through his work, he discovered and revealed to the world Africa's rich cultural legacy and beauty. In all, he has made an unprecedented contribution to the promotion of arts and culture in Africa and throughout the world. This work reflects all this and more. It is a panoramic documentary and history of so much that has been achieved; it is the author's own story of forty years in Africa, in which, in his own words, he "searched for the continent's beauty and creativity, passing through the glorious sunrises and magnificent sunsets that encompass the splendor and calamity of each new day ... and found an ageless and vibrant inner beauty." The narrative is chronological, presenting the developments of African Heritage from its beginnings, with its many facets and global influence, to its final days, and its failures resulting in part from the devastating impact of recent global events, terrorism and the war thereon on culture and tourism in Kenya.
