Reflections of My Smiles by Marie Ary Pdf

Reflections of my smiles is Marie Ary's first personal book of poetry. Marie Ary has been writing since she was eleven years old and hasn't stopped writing since then. Howerver, this is not the first time her work has been published. She has been published in one of the International Society of Poets books entitled Immortal Verses. In addition, she has also published several times in her high school's student magazine called The Antlerette. Publishing her own book of poetry was a dream that Marie continued to see clearly, but from a distant view. Now that she has been given the opportunity, she hopes that the readers of her book will gain wisdom, courage, hope, and faith. However, most importantly, she would like for her readers to become more thankful in life and smile more often.

An Empirical Reflection on the Smile by Millicent H. Abel Pdf

It is not The Smile of Mona Lisa, but smiling in general as nonverbal behavior and a facial expression that here is the focus of US scholars, presumably of psychology. The anthology seeks to explore smiling from the perspectives of emotions and social communication, and to provide an empirical assessment of its beginnings in infancy, and its development through adulthood in different cultures. Among the 10 topics are smiles, lies, and emotion; differential emotions theory; smiling in infancy; displays and their meaning when children smile; cultural differences and similarities in the function of smiles; and the therapeutic effects of smiling. The text is double spaced. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Reflections On A Smile by Lester Sawicki Pdf

Reflections On A Smile is a book of poems where dentist Sawicki dispenses hundreds of impulse fleeting expressions with passionate imaginations of lips and smiles. You'll discover a company of brief poems that glide into a world of lips and smiles and all the emotions they yearn to reveal just outside Sawicki's working palette of teeth and gums. Reflections On A Smile, Poems To Passion, offers a gathering of quick pondering on the enigma of lips and smiles and their many moods. Each reflection is brief but while some are light on their worldly wings, others are saddled with melodramatic trappings. According to Sawicki, 36 years into his dental career he discovered lips more sensitive than fingertips and started to explore the mystical, sensual, humorous and sometimes psychical scarring trimmings of lips and smiles that embellished the circle of teeth he treated.

Smile at Fear by Chogyam Trungpa Pdf

Many of us, without even realizing it, are dominated by fear. We might be aware of some of our fears—perhaps we are afraid of public speaking, of financial hardship, or of losing a loved one. Chögyam Trungpa shows us that most of us suffer from a far more pervasive fearfulness: fear of ourselves. We feel ashamed and embarrassed to look at our feelings or acknowledge our styles of thinking and acting; we don’t want to face the reality of our moment-to-moment experience. It is this fear that keeps us trapped in cycles of suffering, despair, and distress. Chögyam Trungpa offers us a vision of moving beyond fear to discover the innate bravery, trust, and delight in life that lies at the core of our being. Drawing on the Shambhala Buddhist teachings, he explains how we can each become a spiritual warrior: a person who faces each moment of life with openness and fearlessness. "The ultimate definition of bravery is not being afraid of who you are," writes Chögyam Trungpa. In this book he offers the insights and strategies to claim victory over fear.

Quotes for Signboards, Marquees, Church Signs, Inspiration, and Reflection by Stan H. McCarley Pdf

Character is doing what is right when no one else is looking. Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others. Never put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket. Quantity is what you count; quality is what you count on. Very few burdens are heavy if everyone lifts. These are just a few of the quotations that I have included in this book. It is a culmination of over four decades of gathering quotes and sayings, noticing church and marquee signs and bumper stickers and, most recently, researching on the Internet. In the preface for this book, I went through and listed quotes that meant a lot to me, but as I look back, I realize that they all mean something to me. I hope that you can use them for motivation, reflection, and inspiration.

The Puritan Smile by Robert Cummings Neville Pdf

This book develops a contemporary metaphysics of morals. Currently the liberal tradition defines the field of moral and political theory. It contains the popular utilitarian, the deontological, and the virtue-ethics approaches to normative theory; and by a broad dialectical negation, it also defines the historical materialism of Marx. The Puritan Smile circumvents the Liberalism-Marxism dialectic with the Puritan emphasis on responsibility and their social definition of individuality. To this core of classical puritanism is added the deeply rooted sense of culture and the vast historical experience of Confucianism with which it resonates strongly. The need for tolerance and the celebration of liberty is asserted by Neville in order to offset the tendencies toward dogmatism and totalitarianism inherent within the Puritan and Confucian views. The book integrates a Puritan sense of participation with a Confucian sense of moral obligation and a liberal appreciation of freedom and tolerance.

The Smile Shop by Satoshi Kitamura Pdf

Acclaimed author-illustrator Satoshi Kitamura (Hat Tricks) celebrates human connection and community in this hopeful story about a boy, a benevolent shopkeeper, and a shared smile. A small boy has saved all his pocket money, and today's the day he'll buy something special just for himself! There's lots to see and smell at the market, from tasty pies to colorful toys and noisy instruments. But before he can even make up his mind, disaster strikes, and he loses his money down a drain. Oh no! But wait, what's this? A store called the Smile Shop? Could he buy a smile? A small one, perhaps, to cheer himself? Featuring charming, classic illustrations reminiscent of Maurice Sendak and Tomie dePaola, Satoshi Kitamura's The Smile Shop is an absorbing story of community, self-worth, and the effect of a smile shared between two people. An apt parable for a time when smiles and expressions of warmth are in high demand.

The Smile of the Lamb by David Grossman Pdf

In a chorus of voices David Grossman's The Smile of the Lamb tells the story of Uri, an idealistic young Israeli soldier serving in an army unit in the small Palestinian village of Andal, in the occupied territories, and his relationship with Khilmi, a nearly blind old Palestinian storyteller. Gradually as the violent reality of the occupation that infects both the occupier and the occupied alike merges with the old man's stories, Uri, captivated by Khilmi's wisdom, tries to solve the riddles and deceits that make up his life. Originally published in Hebrew in 1983, The Smile of the Lamb is a novel of disillusionment and a piercing examination of injustice and dishonesty.
