My Purpose in writing this Book: It is a gift to the countless children and young people who have lived with the fear of threatening ghosts they could not tell anyone about. Ghosts are frustrated souls terrified of the Judgment Day. They avoid the Light because of unresolved Karma and are drawn to the innocence of children for help. This is the story of my personal life guided by paranormal experiences. My childhood development was interrupted by sexual abuse when I was 6 years old. I was confused and desperate until “the Watcher” came to my rescue. I experienced fear and self-doubt growing up, but whenever evil cast a dark shadow across my path, he showed me many psychic gifts that served to protect me. Once I understood my paranormal experiences were gifts I could use, I was able to overcome my fear. I want to share this blessing with all who have suffered in silence. In The Psychic’s Guide to the Universe, you will find the answers you need. With all my Love, Betty Roschlau
365 affirmations and reflections drawn from the inspirational work of Louise Hay. Queen of the New Age . . . A founder of the self-help movement . . . The closest thing to a living saint . . . Louise Hay was called all this and more, and her work inspired millions worldwide, but she never set herself up as a guru with all the answers. She urged every attendee at her workshops and conferences, every reader of her dozens of books, to remember that it is you who has the power to heal your life. She was just here to guide you on the path of remembering the truth of who you are: powerful, loving, and lovable. In honor of Louise's life, you now hold in your hands this compilation of her most inspiring teachings from her greatest works. Our hope is that the 366 entries within this book allow you to carry the wisdom of Louise with you each and every day, and inspire you to trust the process of Life. As Louise said: "Very simply, I believe that what we give out, we get back; we all contribute to, and are responsible for, the events that take place in our lives--both the good and the so-called bad. We create our experiences based on the words we say and the thoughts we think. When we create peace and harmony in our minds and think positive thoughts, we will attract positive experiences and like-minded people to us. In essence, what I'm saying is that what we believe about ourselves and about Life becomes true for us."

Ann Hulbert’s in-depth exploration of the lives of sixteen extraordinary children over the course of the past century casts new light on America’s current obsession with early achievement. The figures she profiles include math genius Norbert Wiener, founder of cybernetics; two girls whose fiction and poetry stirred debate in the 1920s; the movie superstar Shirley Temple; the African-American pianist and composer Philippa Schuyler; the chess champion Bobby Fischer; computer pioneers and “prodigious savants” with autism; and musical prodigies, present and past. Hulbert probes the changing roles of parents and teachers as well as of psychologists and a curious press. Above all, she delves into the feelings of the prodigies themselves, whose stories so intriguingly raise hopes about untapped human potential and questions about how best to nurture it.
