    Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Listen to the podcast about this book. In Intercultural Friendship: The Case of a Palestinian Bedouin and a Dutch Israeli Jew Daniel J.N. Weishut focuses on the interface between interculturality and friendship in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. After a literature study, the author describes the socio-cultural context of his boundary-crossing friendship in the realm of the Israeli occupation and then investigates it through the perspective of Hofstede's cultural dimensions. The tremendous cultural differences as they appear are in line with Hofstede's theory for three of the value orientations but in the field of uncertainty avoidance they conflict with the theory. Challenges and opportunities in the friendship, and their implications for personal growth, among others, are illustrated by a series of intriguing stories of friendship. …

    Paperback. Condition: Very Good. PRACTICAL WAY TO UNDERSTAND & OVERCOME THE RELATIONSHIP REPETITION SYNDROME Do you find yourself continually repeating the same kind of toxic relationship patterns? Do your relationships feed your soul? Is your relationship blissfully happy, loving, delicious, passionate, and filled with joy? If not, why? If you find instead that your relationship is filled with disdain, mistrust, anxiety, stress or jealousy, then you may need to re-examine why you're in it in the first place. Although the term Relationship Repetition Syndrome may be a new one to you - I'm sure that the idea of continuing to repeat the same toxic relationship patterns is certainly not a new idea for many of us. Love is one of the most challenging but rewarding emotions known to man, so it makes sense that many of us struggle with it. Overcome Relationship Repetition Syndrome is the third book in the Creating Your Own Reality series. If you have ever wondered why you continually repeat toxic relationship patterns, this book can enlighten you so you may find the answers you need. We sometimes revel in our pain and our toxic relationship patterns to the point that we begin to think a toxic relationship is perfectly normal. This book is not written from a doctor's perspective - it is written by someone who understands that thoughts become things. As a Clinical Hypnotherapist with a master's degree, Leslie Riopel has seen her fair share of people who continually struggle with one thing or another. As a woman she understands how challenging relationships can be, but she also understands how rewarding they can be. Just like the definition of insanity where one keeps repeating the same mistakes expecting different results, we often repeat the same toxic patterns in our relationships. For someone experiencing a pattern of dysfunctional relationships a good place to start to start is by looking at the relationship role models one had a child. Messages perceived by us as a child can have life-long consequences. The repetition of the same old hurtful patterns in your life only means one thing - it means that you have something to learn from the experience. Once you figure out the lesson, you can then move beyond it into a healthy, relationship that nurtures your soul. If the messages you received as a child were about abandonment, rejection, frustration, neglect, abuse or disappointment, you might create a certain set of circumstances as a child to emotionally deal with this. You might for example cling to the hope that if you were only smarter, prettier, funnier, quieter, thinner or anything else, that you would finally win over mom or dad - or whoever it might be - until they finally loved you as you needed them to love you - unconditionally. As humans we tend to seek comfort in the familiar. Our desire to return to the past is so strong that we often continue repeating these hurtful destructive patterns into our adult life. This process is akin to peeling an onion - each layer that is removed reveals more clues and more of that raw inner surface. A lifetime of hurts and emotional turmoil sits within the energy of the heart - and in this book you can learn how each of the chakras can help you heal. The heart-healing self-reflection exercise at the end of the book can help you untangle the complex energy of the heart - leading the way to immense healing. Letting go of the pain and the anger and the resentments that hold you back can lead the way to a lifetime of love and healthy relationships that feed your soul. In the end, overcoming relationship repetition syndrome is a journey that starts from within. Doing these powerful self-healing exercises and this inner work is the most important step you can take towards a lifetime of love. …

    Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is the story of Alfred Hilroy, a recently widowed, 68-year-old man who believes that estate and money matters should be kept private. It is also the story of Alfred's three grown children, Bev, Michael, and Judy, who love their father dearly but worry that he is going to squander away his retirement savings -- and their inheritance. Alfred believes his affairs are in order. He has part-time work at the pharmacy he co-owns and runs, reasonably good health, and a modest but steady amount of retirement income. However, he misses his late wife terribly and does not look forward to navigating through old age alone. Then The Bolt hits. Mary Beth Cain, twenty-five years Alfred's junior, is an athletic, confident, outgoing woman who knows what she wants. Within weeks there is talk of a future life together. Bev, Michael, and Judy are soon swept up into a sea of conflicting emotions as their new step-mother moves into -- and redecorates -- the beloved Hilroy home, appears at Alfred's birthday party wearing their late mother's spider brooch, and vacations with the family at the cottage. Will Alfred leave everything to this newcomer to the family? Will cherished family belongings suddenly disappear? The Hilroys' struggles are becoming more and more common as baby boomers confront their parents', and their own, mortality. As Bev, Michael, and Judy screw up their courage and begin discussions with their father about his estate, we learn about, Powers of Attorney, capital gains tax, probating a will, US estate and gift tax, trusts, joint ownership, cottage inheritances, communicating with aging people, and more -- all in an intriguing, suspenseful, and ultimately liberating story.…

    Paperback. Condition: Good. For more than a decade, Marion Jones was hailed as the ?the fastest woman on the planet.? At the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia, she became the first woman ever to win five medals at one Olympics. That same year, the Associated Press and ESPN named her Athlete of the Year. She was on the cover of Vogue and Time. She seemed to have it all?fame, fortune, talent, and international acclaim. Now she is a convicted felon.The trouble started in 2003 when she lied to federal agents about her use of a performance-enhancing drug and her knowledge of a check fraud scam. In 2007, no longer able to live with the lies, she admitted the truth. In a sad end to what seemed like a storybook career, she was stripped of her medals, and her track-and-field records were wiped from the books.She was incarcerated at Carswell federal prison in Fort Worth, Texas?a prison known for its violence and abuse. While there, she kept herself in shape and her sanity intact by running on a dirt track and a treadmill in the prison?s improvised weight room. But her imprisonment was not the end for Marion Jones. In fact, it marked a new beginning. She is now using her story to change the lives of people the world over and inspire others who, like her, face obstacles that seem insurmountable.On the Right Track is the candidly told story of how Marion came to grips with her lies and the consequences of her actions, and how she found meaning in all of it. What she tells her children and has now applied to her own life is that when you make a mistake, you admit it, you accept the consequences, you move on, you make the wrong a right. She teaches her children and others to take a break and pause before making impulsive and potentially harmful decisions.At the heart of this book are real issues that we all face: learning to grow through pain; making decisions that will help us far into the future; overcoming failure and discouragement; and applying practical principles that point the way to personal and spiritual breakthrough.…

    Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is a memoir of the author's struggle to survive racism and poverty during the Civil Rights Era. Her mother called her Francie Mae. She and her family lived in a world that was confusing, painful and difficult to understand. She lived her entire childhood in poverty and shares her journey of survival. She was a curious child and sought answers to her many questions about inequality. She took a journey through a land showing the dark side while searching for her piece of the American dream. She learned to rely on her faith to help her navigate the rough roads ahead. She became socially conscious and advocated for justice. She prevailed She was inspired to write the book when her young granddaughter began asking questions about race. She and many other children are living in a similar world now. Racism and poverty exists and children should know why they exist. Racism is a learned behavior and we owe it to our children to teach them it is wrong. Racism may lead to poverty. These are difficult topics to discuss, yet we owe it to our children to engage in age appropriate conversations. As they struggle to understand the world around them they may have unanswered questions. If not answered, children come to their own conclusions and their conclusions may not be correct. Parents shouldn't remain silent. Avoiding talking about race and poverty will not make it go away. Francie Mae's parents listened to her questions and provided answers in ways she could understand. Many ideologies were formed many years ago. The way people felt and thought became twisted together like a web. If not challenged, the web tangles more. It is time to join together and untangle the web. We owe it to our current and future generations.…
