It was suddenly time to forgive and forget, it was time to be by his father's side.

According to the results of recent surveys, Americans overwhelmingly believe that HEAVEN exists, though a much smaller number believe that HELLexists, with only one-tenth of one percent believing they will go there when they die. Gary Frazier helps readers: Discern what beliefs are based on fact or fiction Discover the truth in the midst of so much deception Understand the depth of Scripture that speaks of HELL more than HEAVEN. Hell is for Real is a clear search for truth, and truth matters for the simple reason that we all have a divine appointment with death. What if those who do not believe in HELL die one day and find they made a tragic and eternal mistake? Where do we turn for real answers? Should we look to movies, television, and stories of personal experiences, psychics, or religion? Cemeteries and mausoleums dot the landscape of America as evidence and reminders of the sad reality of death. The good news is there is a source of hope that provides answers for each and every one who cares to seek the truth. Join the search and choose wisely because, eternity is too long to be wrong and Hell is for Real.
In this poetic analysis of the human response throughout the journey of life, Peter Donaldson unveils his examination of human behavior in various circumstances and in response to a variety of topics, including love, faith, politics, relationships, and black history. He offers this literary exposition of the nature of the human heart and the intriguing emotional reactions we express towards the obstacles, successes, and failures of life, hoping to leave readers refreshed by a complete showering of poetic utopia. Although largely influenced by a Christian perspective, the philosophical ideologies presented here aim to stimulate deep thoughts in the minds of both the believer and agnostic alike. Symphony of the Heart presents an expression of lyrical artistry that surveys a journey into the uncharted waters of faith and unbridled emotions. In the dialect of poetic lingo, Donaldson intends to spur discussions concerning the controversial issues of life with language creatively written in such an untailored fashion as to create a sentiment of tranquil literary bliss.
The understanding of new insights about a toxic relationship is only enlightening. Unless you plan to maintain success and the new ideas there will be NO change. Action and knowledge are NOT the same thing. You must Implement Normal Reality in place of the toxic lie. God sets the exclusive measurement of normal reality and success. We all fall under God's natural laws, which include the five rules of the harvest, the five basic human needs, and the five basic conflicts. You cannot replant yesterday's harvest. It is over. You can only plant today what you will grow and harvest tomorrow.
Ask anyone: Jim Sain is a pompous, naked, free thinker. He's also the mayor of Berkeley. One of his high school chums has moved back to renovate Hamilton House, one wacky adventure at a time, and who knows what's coming next? The mayor has been dubbed "mR. bERZERKELEY" by a cartoonist who is determined to embarrass him (and undermine his bid for reelection). His personal life is as colorful as his political life. He gives his detractors plenty of fodder to fuel his demise (but in his eyes, these are not signs of moral weakness). In this spoof that cheerfully brings the sixties into the twenty-first century, Jim's buffoonery as he interacts with boarding-house residents creates a wild smorgasbord of political, mysterious, sexual, and otherwise edgy adventures. A cartoonist, a naïve freshman, a reformed prostitute, lesbian lovers, a sarcastic cook, the de-formed son of a university bigwig, and a Kansas politician are some of the characters who spark energy back into the old house and bring classic Berkeley lore back to life. mR. bERZERKELEY is Jack McLaughlin's love song to a city like no other.
