Your Last Chance to Get It Right! (A Journey from Darkness into Light) by Alan W. Hayden Pdf
Since antiquity, mankind has been searching for God in all the wrong places, which has resulted in a world that is tormented, driven by evil, and out of control. In traveling the globe, the author has witnessed firsthand the misery, squalor, and hopelessness of people who are struggling to find true meaning in their lives. Billions of people are living in darkness and ignorance because they have never known the peace and tranquility of a personal, loving relationship with the Lord, Jesus Christ. The author understands that trying to explain love to someone who has never been in love is not easy. But, with a fervent desire, the author attempts to show nonbelievers the way with the confidence that the Holy Spirit will do the rest.
The beloved New York Times bestselling author reflects on home, family, friendships and writing in this deeply personal collection of essays. "The elegance of Patchett’s prose is seductive and inviting: with Patchett as a guide, readers will really get to grips with the power of struggles, failures, and triumphs alike." —Publisher's Weekly “Any story that starts will also end.” As a writer, Ann Patchett knows what the outcome of her fiction will be. Life, however, often takes turns we do not see coming. Patchett ponders this truth in these wise essays that afford a fresh and intimate look into her mind and heart. At the center of These Precious Days is the title essay, a surprising and moving meditation on an unexpected friendship that explores “what it means to be seen, to find someone with whom you can be your best and most complete self.” When Patchett chose an early galley of actor and producer Tom Hanks’ short story collection to read one night before bed, she had no idea that this single choice would be life changing. It would introduce her to a remarkable woman—Tom’s brilliant assistant Sooki—with whom she would form a profound bond that held monumental consequences for them both. A literary alchemist, Patchett plumbs the depths of her experiences to create gold: engaging and moving pieces that are both self-portrait and landscape, each vibrant with emotion and rich in insight. Turning her writer’s eye on her own experiences, she transforms the private into the universal, providing us all a way to look at our own worlds anew, and reminds how fleeting and enigmatic life can be. From the enchantments of Kate DiCamillo’s children’s books (author of The Beatryce Prophecy) to youthful memories of Paris; the cherished life gifts given by her three fathers to the unexpected influence of Charles Schultz’s Snoopy; the expansive vision of Eudora Welty to the importance of knitting, Patchett connects life and art as she illuminates what matters most. Infused with the author’s grace, wit, and warmth, the pieces in These Precious Days resonate deep in the soul, leaving an indelible mark—and demonstrate why Ann Patchett is one of the most celebrated writers of our time.
In the most extraordinary way, the wisdom of this book invites you to fall in love with the human condition and offers endless compassion for every Soul walking the planet. A Light in the Darkness is the true story of an incredible visitation from God that began for Phyllis Leavitt in 1994 at the darkest time of her life. Although she had prayed for God's help, she was totally unprepared when one day, God literally spoke. There was no question that a source of Divine Love and profound Wisdom came to her as she wrote in her journal. She was taken on a startling and sometimes terrifying journey through past lives and way beyond that, to a new understanding of what all our Souls are doing here in human form and where Soul wants to take us. Her personal story is one footprint on the long road we have all walked as human beings, a small opening into a vast inpouring of Light on the Road Home. A Light in the Darkness will open your heart to the Divine meaning and purpose of all human struggle and it will open your mind to your personal place in God's Love and the evolution of human consciousness.

The main title of the book, From Darkness into Light, is a metaphor referring to the most important life-altering event in the author’s life from a totalitarian dictatorship to living in the free world. The subtitle reflects his eyewitness account of events and experiences, captured in five stories, in chronological order, from his birth in 1938 in Budapest, Hungary, to when he is in the United States as twenty-six years old as a married man with a child, a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the world’s premier science and engineering institution, and ready to embark on living the American dream. Robert Ratonyi spent the first seven years of his life in an openly anti-Semitic country, suffering the loss of his father and many of his close relatives, uncles, aunts, and cousins, in the Holocaust. He then spent his adolescent years under the hard-core Stalinist communist dictatorship. He was brought up by a single mother, a Holocaust survivor, in a working-class neighborhood. According to contemporary American definition, the family lived in poverty, barely making it from paycheck to paycheck his uneducated and unskilled mother could provide as a manual laborer. As a freshman at the Technical University of Budapest, he participated in a peaceful student march on October 23, 1956, that turned into a bloody uprising against the regime. He was caught up in the uprising, hoping that Hungary could break free out of the “iron curtain” that separated the east from the west. When the Russians put down the revolution, he managed to escape to Austria on December 6, 1956, with no money or other earthly possessions, leaving behind his mother, family, and friends. He was single-mindedly focused on finding a new, free country where he could continue his university education. He went to the American Embassy in Vienna to apply for immigrating to the US but was told that the quota for Hungarian refugees was filled. The Canadians were actively seeking students who wanted to continue their education, and Robert Ratonyi ended up in Montréal, Canada, in February 1957. The last story ends when Robert Ratonyi succeeds in finishing his education at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1964. This story demonstrates how an immigrant can become a contributor to society by taking risks, being willing to work hard, delaying gratification, learning English, and getting a good education. He is now semiretired as a portfolio manager and is a regular speaker on behalf of the William Breman Jewish Heritage & Holocaust Museum and the Georgia Commission on the Holocaust. He and his wife live in Atlanta and are fervent supporters of the arts, education, as well as local Jewish organizations.
Story of Chester Lawrence is the story of a lonesome man on a long journey by ship to find his destiny. Excerpt: "It was nothing, sir. I, too, was just bidding farewell to the Land of Joseph, and I fear my sight was also rather dim." Chester paused and looked at the man who had heard and repeated his remark. No one but a Latter-day Saint would call America the Land of Joseph. He was a pleasant-looking man, with hair and beard tinged with gray, clear blue eyes, a firm mouth, about which at that moment there played a faint smile. He wished to make further acquaintance with Chester, for he asked: "How far west were you looking just now?"

As a single mother of five wonderful young men, my journey has been a kaleidoscope of cultural nuances, personal struggles, and the enduring quest for a sense of self-worth. While suffering physically, mentally, and emotionally, I began my path of self-discovery and healing in order to come out stronger and brighter on the other side. Beginning at the tender age of five, I worked in a traditional Taiwanese market selling dumplings—a rather humble beginning to a life filled with challenges, twists, and turns. I found myself navigating not only the harsh reality of language barriers within my family but also the societal preference for male offspring that my parents adopted and carried over into every facet of their lives. Beyond the surface of every challenge arranged by the higher power, I believe every step of my journey delves into the complexities of unpleasant chaos but also a remarkably rewarding journey, unveiling both its shadows and its light in brilliance. By embracing the duality of nature that exists in every corner of the universe and within every individual, we can become the masters of our one-way journey, evolving and celebrating in the darkness and the light, both of which serve a meaningful purpose in our human growth. Just like my life, the following chapters unfold at a random, un- i predictable pace, documenting the challenges encountered during a painful, dark childhood, a journey of looking for a place I could call home, a 17-year international marriage without knowing who I was or what I wanted, and assimilation into the uncharted western cultural landscape known as America. Most of my journey was completed alone, without any family around to support me, yet I was guided by an innate strength and divine wisdom gained from my previous life experience that prepared me for each new challenge. Thankfully, I confronted countless obstacles posed by a foreign culture and discovered the true essence of my being. In sharing every profound, memorable, and dark turning point of my journey, I hope to shed a light for those who are trapped in the dark and struggling to keep moving forward to the next step of their path. Because of a Chinese proverb and my aging father, I was able to see beyond the suffering in my reality, and I hope I can inspire others to do the same. It can be a hard pill to swallow, but there really is meaning behind this darkness, which is necessary for a beautiful transformation that will allow us to reconnect with our true essence and experience rebirth through self-discovery and resilience. May my story act as a light to guide you along your own journey. Let’s walk each other home. Love & Peace, Amy Love
