My goal is to bring substance and understanding to the lives of my readers based on my thirty year career specializing in counseling and psychotherapy. Herein I decipher and define those qualities of mental health which empower an individual to escape the grips of spiritual and psychological distress.Each of the basic attributes necessary to achieve this goal (humility, gratitude, acceptance/forgiveness, patience/trust) is discussed in addition to obstacles and opportunities presented by life. Practicing the attributes while circumventing obstacles and maximizing opportunities for growth will result in a life perspective dominated by love, wisdom and courage.The reader’s journey is not unlike that of Dorothy from Kansas who is unpredictably severed from the security of all that she has known to be confronted with the ultimate change (Friends, environment, culture, life goal etc...). The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum is an allegory of self-discovery and empowerment. As she overcomes all obstacles Dorothy and her friends learn that genuine power lies within and all else is illusion.Both themes are combined to present a relevant and hopefully, engaging treatise on living 'the good life.' My hope is that all readers benefit and evolve for the good of all.

Reconsideration by Richard Bauckham has suggested that the author was a Jerusalem disciple who housed the ''Last Supper.'' This book explores the possibility that he was present...

    del mayor guitarrista de la historia del tango.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...
  • Tommaso Traetta and the Fusion of Italian and French Opera in Parma
    George W. Loomis
    In 1759, the court of the Italian Duchy of Parma adopted the inspiration of cultural creators who recommended a reform of Italian opera along French lines. These writers favored combining Italian-style music with the wider range of musical genres and scenic variety of French opera. As the music critic and commentator George W. Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...

For more than five decades, adaptations of his plays, stories, and novels dominated movie theaters and, later, television screens. More than ninety individual works were filmed, and for ma...
