This book tells the story of a young man who struggles to find his way in a world that doesn't seem to want him. He isn't smart enough or handsome enough. His skin is the wrong shade and his shaking nervousness is never understood. From his first steps as a child, he is exposed to life's harsh realities: poverty, violence, sexual abuse, neglect ... until finally, seeking to escape the cruelty and unfairness of the world by immersing himself in its questionable pleasures, he drifts further and further from a salvation he doesn't even know exists. In Mama Can You Hear Me, William Waters shares the story of his life with a candor and sincerity that is as touching as it is shocking at times. With his experiences and soul laid bare, he offers up his journey, from the depths of despair to the welcoming arms of God, who lifted him up, carried him through, and picked him up when he faltered. With faith, determination, and the grace of God, it is the story of a young man who survived.
"Forget being an actor. You don't have the look, you don't have the talent, and your name is ridiculous. You are the last guy I would ever pick to be a movie star." This was the first piece of advice Steve Guttenberg ever received from an agent. Like many other times in his life, he didn't listen. In this honest, charming memoir, Guttenberg tells the unique story of his first decade in Hollywood, as he went from being a complete unknown to starring in some of the most successful blockbusters of all time. He spent his early days sneaking onto the Paramount lot and meeting more actors and casting agents than most aspiring actors ever would. Even before the hit Police Academy---which his manager said would be a flop---he had already worked with such luminaries as Lord Laurence Olivier, Richard Widmark, and Gregory Peck. Later he shared the screen with actors such as Mickey Rourke and Sharon Stone long before they became household names. Guttenberg has lived through the addictive pull of show business and worldwide celebrity (you're no one until you have a stalker, he learns). With a clear-eyed appreciation for the one-of-a-kind experiences that the celebrity lifestyle has to offer, he knew that his family would keep him grounded throughout it all. And his self-awareness and sense of humor about the ups and downs of fame make The Guttenberg Bible one of the most candid Hollywood stories to date.
The Land of My Ancestors’ Sepulchers by Miranda P. Yeoh Pdf
What is it like to be born into an extended Peranakan family that has seen better days? Besides poverty, there’s strife when some don’t pull together. However, I had a wise Grandma, Dad, and Aunt. Reading transported me into a world of joy, and soon I loved learning for its own sake. The Scriptures challenged me to seek the kingdom of heaven when I was at university. Why should I teach in Selangor rather than my beloved hometown, Penang? Could I rely on God? On several occasions, I realized that God blessed me just on time! I tried to influence my students to be intrinsically motivated. I tried to nurture a passion for knowledge. Besides teaching, I researched to facilitate the learning of my students. How could I manage caring for an aging aunt, but by God’s mercy? How would I cope with my health issues, uncertain if healing would come? Would all the events, and my responses to them, show that I worship an all-powerful, merciful God in whom I can trust?
A new classic, in the line of Dickens,’ David Copperfield, or Groom’s, Forrest Gump, while at the same time different, and more raw. The story of life is a fictional tale with roots on true events.

This is the journey of John Eibar, someone who is not all good, but not all bad. You may like him sometimes and at other times you may not. In essence, he is someone like most of us. It is a story about the way life takes people in many directions and the persons that will come in and go out of our existence. Some of these people, we might meet again and others will never return. And as a final point, it is about the choices good or bad that are made along the way.
For as long as she can remember, Clare and her family have had a dream: Someday Clare will be a dancer in City Ballet Company. For ten long years Clare has been taking ballet lessons, watching what she eats, giving up friends and a social life, and practicing until her feet bleed—all for the sake of that dream. And now, with the audition for City Ballet Company right around the corner, the dream feels so close. But what if the dream doesn’t come true? The competition for the sixteen spots in the company is fierce, and many won’t make it. Talent, dedication, body shape, size—everything will influence the outcome. Clare’s grandfather says she is already a great dancer, but does she really have what it takes to make it into the company? And if not, then what? Told through passionate and affecting poems in Clare’s own voice, On Pointe soars with emotion as it explores what it means to reach for a dream—and the way that dreams can change as quickly and suddenly as do our lives.

Staceyann Chin, acclaimed and iconic performance artist, now brings her extraordinary talents to the page in a brave, lyrical, and fiercely candid memoir about growing up in Jamaica. She plumbs tender and unsettling memories as she writes about drifting from one home to the next, coming out as a lesbian, and finding the man she believes to be her father and ultimately her voice. Hers is an unforgettable story told with grace, humor, and courage.
