I turn around quickly and ask like every little Black child asking 23 questions, ""Mama Mama---"" it's the early 1980's and i'm watching 'King Creole' my fave Elvis movie,""--Presley is cool---ain't he Mama?"" Jackie's face darkens, her bottom lip frowns down, and she tells me she hated Elvis. She says she never liked Elvis Aaron Presley because he said somethin' about all Negro people can do for him, is shine his blue suede shoes. ""He said that?"", I'm all shook up for a nanosecond. I thought he was cool. I slowly turn back around to enjoy the rest of the movie on the Zombie T.V. cathode ray tube; Questioning everything, still bobbin' my big head to the SOULFUL jazzy sounds, skeptical of the dude that styled his hair with ROSE OIL and vaseline. The ""Barnett Crossroads"", is the signpost reminder that visitors SEE right before they cross The 'Long Poetic Bridge', also known as ""The General Walter KING Wilson JR. Bridge.'
“Engaging . . . thoughtful topics and funny moments, cleverness and charm . . . a must-read for Janeites . . . and . . . readers who like smart, and provocative fiction.” —Booklist, starred review A charming, romantic debut novel in which Jane Austen, heralded author, ends up time-traveling almost two hundred years in the future. There she finds the love she's written about and the destiny she's dreamed of . . . but is it worth her legacy? Bath, England, 1803. At twenty-eight, Jane Austen prefers walking and reading to balls and assemblies; she dreams of someday publishing her carefully crafted stories. Already on the shelf and in grave danger of becoming a spinster, Jane goes searching for a radical solution—and as a result, seemingly by accident, time-travels. She lands in . . . Bath, England, present day. The film set of Northanger Abbey. Sofia Wentworth is a Hollywood actress starring in a new period film. When Sofia meets Jane, she marvels at the young actress who can’t seem to “break character,” even off set. And Jane—acquainting herself with the horseless steel carriages and seriously shocking fashion of the twenty-first century—meets Sofia, a woman unlike anyone she’s ever met before. Then she meets Fred, Sofia’s brother, who has the audacity to be handsome, clever, and kind-hearted. What happens when Jane, against her better judgement, falls in love with Fred? And when Sofia learns the truth about her new friend Jane? And worst of all, if Jane stays with Fred, will she ever achieve her dream, the one she's now seen come true? “Artfully written and engaging, Jane in Love is a lively effusion of wit and humor.” —Graeme Simsion, The New York Times–bestselling author of The Rosie Project
In every act of one who lives in the Divine Volition he pronounces the Fiat there and forms of it so many divine lives. How he gives himself into the power of the creature and lets her do that which she wants with him. Difference that passes between one who lives in him and between one who is resigned. I am always between the arms of the divine Fiat, and, oh, how I feel the need of his life, that breathes, beats, circulates in my poor soul! Without him I feel that all dies for me, the light dies, sanctity, strength, even heaven itself, as if it might not belong to me anymore. Instead as I feel his life, all rearises in me. The light re-arises with its beauty that vivifies, purifies and sanctifies. My own Jesus re-arises with all his works. Heaven re-arises which the holy Volition encloses within my soul as within a sanctuary in order to make it all mine. So that if I live in his Will everything is mine and nothing should be missing for me.
…After this, I felt myself going out of myself into the Vault of the Heavens, together with my Loving Jesus. It seemed that everything was in Feast – Heaven, earth and Purgatory. All were Inundated with a New Joy and Jubilation. Many souls were going out of Purgatory and, like bolts of lightning, reached Heaven in order to be present at the Feast of our Queen Mama.
The Routledge Handbook of Love in Philosophy collects 39 original chapters from prominent philosophers on the nature, meaning, value, and predicaments of love, presented in a unique framework that highlights the rich variety of methods and traditions used to engage with these subjects. This volume is structured around important realms of human life and activity, each of which receives its own section: I. Family and Friendship II. Romance and Sex III. Politics and Society IV. Animals, Nature, and the Environment V. Art, Faith, and Meaning VI. Rationality and Morality VII. Traditions: Historical and Contemporary. This last section includes chapters treating love as a subject in both Western and non-Western philosophical traditions. The contributions, all appearing in print here for the first time, are written to be accessible and compelling to non-philosophers and philosophers alike; and the volume as a whole encourages professional philosophers, teachers, students, and lay readers to rethink standard constructions of philosophical canons.

The story of The Inverted Crow will inspire anyone who lacks self-confidence, feels unwanted, insufficient or in any way inadequate. Conversely, The Inverted Crow is important to self-assured individuals who wish to proactively become involved in their spiritual evolution. The story of the Crow is fiction; however, the advice that is given by ever-present seers throughout the journey is real and applicable. Screenplay writer Joseph Gunnels states, "It dips back into self-awakening again and again and again until the Crow is fully reborn. it is so deep and rich and thought-provoking and intelligent and edgy and requiring of consciousness..." Dr. Cecil Gray of Morgan State University describes the substance of The Inverted Crow as "large." The book is relative to philosophy and spirituality, African-American culture, social science and political science. Yet, The Inverted Crow is an allegorical piece of literature detailed in terms that can equally be described as poetic, lyrical and raw. On one side, individuals claim The Inverted Crow primarily for literary value - an engaging, enjoyable and delicious read. Others claim that the literature is secondary to the book's philosophical and spiritual content. Dr. Dolly Jenkins Mullen, political scientist at the University of North Carolina at Asheville, states, "This fiction work is a must-read for anyone sold on the concept of personal growth as the beginning of community development." The Inverted Crow was written to help individuals find peace within and live in peace; express God's holy love and receive it in joy; discover their reason for being; employ it to uplift the quality of life on earth; and empower all whom they meet to also experience the abundance of life.
