Описание: A refreshingly honest and authentic description of a courageous and often lonely life journey. Theresa Miles is a technical writer by trade, but now offers a completely unabashed chronicle about fighting for her own truth amidst a world of hidden disparities. From each carefully crafted chapter comes a host of windows, tools, and graceful insights into an experience for anyone who has felt lost or alone, giving a framework of self-acceptance, love, courage, & resiliency. Her rediscovery of purpose includes critical situational messages that touch on bias and bigotry when living in a self-inspired role opposite and hidden from almost everyone. Consider this book as a great gift for starting or continuing a conversation. So goes the truism, "people dont know what they dont know." Equally true is that to fully listen & hear someone elses story- you often follow a transformation of thought and replacement of preconceptions. While every story is uniquely ones own- the story of "Hiding in Plain Sight," speaks to the plight of so many marginalized communities and demonstrates how one spent nearly a lifetime working to put it all into perspective. This work is a fantastic guide for folks navigating how to be a loving ally or advocate, or simply those just wanting to understand more dynamically. Asking self-directed questions is often a great first step. What began as a faith-inspired gratitude journal served as the very foundation & framework that Teri worked to keep before & after her transition. The books key premise is that readers will learn from Teris experience providing a prompt for LGBTQ+ youth and adults to begin their self-analysis... facing their challenge spelling out their thoughts & wrestling with them as she has so masterfully done. "Hiding in Plain Sight," isnt just a Testimony for Living- it is a vital and unique life-long account of perseverance. Rediscovery is one of the most valuable & genuine parts of our individual journeys on this Earth. We live in a world of break-neck speed, with many who fall behind often living only within others agendas and expectations serving a lifetime of unanswered questions about who they really are- who they identify as and who can they turn to with unconditional support and love. The proceeds from this insightful memoir pieced together during Covid- 19 that will go to fuel the Miles in Front Foundation established to continue ensuring that Trans, Non- Binary, & Genderqueer persons no longer have to wait for the world to catch up. These individuals deserve to live authentically and on the same level as everyone else. Enough of the violence and baseless motives behind those who refuse to acknowledge their loving presence- a true testimony to the diversity we all share on this planet. "This paper is one way I find gives me some self-therapy, by probing my past to help resurface pain points that have been left dormant, to deal with them and dust them off... to put all things into perspective. Although, like many, there are many elements of my youth and past I would never want to repeat, but also that I would never trade- they make me who I am today." - Preface, Hiding in Plain Sight Sometimes there arent names or labels for things you know are true. Sometimes your truth may be much more complicated than others can understand- what you do with that knowledge makes all the difference. Theresa Miles has chosen to take a stand & forge a path where there hasnt always been one during her life. She has taken what some might label as years of turmoil and concentrated on pulling out key opportunities on which we can all be inspired. This entire window into Teris journey is just one way she is reaching out from the inside and will continue helping others find ways to write their story. This can be one way for you to learn how to touch a part of your own heart thats been hiding.

Описание: Most of us have been doing life backward because weve been working hard and chasing success. More times than not, we desperately seek success and end up falling for deceitful schemes that fail to deliver on the things our hearts so badly desire. Little did we know that success was tailored and designed to come to us automatically. In our haste to become successful weve sometimes fallen for deceitful schemes that promise success, only to find out that weve been bamboozled! Likewise, there are thousands of books written promising to give you "The 5 Easy Steps" for success, but they dont actually deliver on its promise. This book is extremely different from those because you will learn to de-code spiritual principles that God left for your benefit. God, who created the universe, made you priceless, precious, and valuable. He desires that you become successful. Therefore, He left us a blueprint and a road map to follow in order to achieve great success. The problem is that religion(s) have complicated the issue and cause us to misunderstand how to apply Gods instructions properly. You might be shocked to hear that God really doesnt like religion, because it distorts His universal truth. In this book you will discover those universal principles to apply, that will bring success to you automatically. These spiritual principles work like keys. Therefore, certain keys open certain doors. Whereas, there are specific principles that unlock abundant finances and yet, there are different principles that attract great relationships. Ultimately, you will learn the principles for career success, self-achievement, good health and the keys for satisfying your spirit. But please take notice that the keys to abundant finances wont open the door to good relationships. Thats why money cant buy you love, peace, or inner satisfaction long-term. Those things require different keys. This book is not a "5 Easy Steps to Success" read, but a guide to help lead you to becoming your best self with a great life! No gimmicks, No empty promises, No lies! If youre ready for your unique potential to manifest, then ...Lets go!!

Описание: Few writers have led as storied a life as Setouchi Jakuch?. Writer, translator, feminist, peace activist, Buddhist nun . . . even this list cannot contain the impressive sweep of her career. Along the way she has also been daughter, wife, mother, mistress, lover, role model, and femme fatale. Through each twist and turn, she has reacted with both feisty verve and self-reproving reflection. Basho (Places), superbly translated here by Liza Dalby, enjoins readers to accompany the author as she travels again over the familiar terrain of her life story, journeying through the places where she once lived, loved, suffered, and learned." - from the Foreword by Rebecca L. CopelandIn this scintillating work of autobiographical fiction, Setouchi Jakuch? recalls with almost photographic clarity scenes from her past: growing up in the Tokushima countryside in the 1920s, the daughter of a craftsman, and in Tokyo as a young student experiencing the heady freedom of college life; escaping to Kyoto at the end of a disastrous arranged marriage and an ill-starred love affair before returning to Tokyo, with its lively community of artists and writers, to establish herself as a novelist. Throughout, Jakuch? is propelled by a burning desire to write and make a living as one. Her memories, remarkably sharp and clear, also provide a fascinating picture of everyday life in Japan in the years surrounding World War II.

Описание: People are socially situated amid complex relations with other people and are bound by interpersonal frameworks having significant influence upon their lives. These facts have implications for their autonomy. Challenging many of the currently accepted conceptions of autonomy and of how autonomy is valued, Oshana develops a 'social-relational' account of autonomy, or self-governance, as a condition of persons that is largely constituted by a person’s relations with other people and by the absence of certain social relations. She denies that command over one's motives and the freedom to realize one's will are sufficient to secure the kind of command over one's life that autonomy requires, and argues against psychological, procedural, and content neutral accounts of autonomy. Oshana embraces the idea that her account is 'perfectionist' in a sense, and argues that ultimately our commitment to autonomy is defeasible, but she maintains that a social-relational account best captures what we value about autonomy and best serves the various ends for which the concept of autonomy is employed.
