“One of the most engaging memoirs I’ve read in ages. The wise and feisty voice I've come to know and love in Elizabeth Cunningham’s Maeve Chronicles fills these pages and carried me away. Anyone who has forged an independent path through the luminous moments and deepest shadows of a soul-filled life will recognize their own spiritual adventures reflected here.”—Mirabai Starr, God of Love In this intriguing spiritual memoir, The Maeve Chronicles author Elizabeth Cunningham traces her dynamic faith journey and its relationship to her writing. As the daughter of an Episcopal priest, author Elizabeth Cunningham was born into community, sacred story, and the mysteries of prayer. For her, “If a writer is one who writes, then a ‘prayer’ is one who prays.” As such, her praying is dynamic, a dance between many opposites—active vs. contemplative, community vs. individual, human vs. wild—and Cunningham sees the divine as both incarnate and transcendent, an intimate beloved and a vast mystery. When she prays, Cunningham is both audacious and reverent, asking tough questions of God—raging, listening intently, and dancing and singing ecstatically. Her storyteller’s imagination opens a path from the known to the unknowable, from despair to wonder. In this nonfiction debut, Cunningham recounts both her lifelong spiritual quest and her ongoing spiritual questions. Her journey takes her from her childhood church, with its ornate liturgy, to the silence of Quaker meeting; from her ordination as an interfaith minister to an eclectic, earth-centered community where she served as priestess before becoming a hermit, of sorts, making a church of her own backyard. Candid and passionate, Cunningham’s memoir invites readers of all faiths—and doubts!—to explore what it means to live life as a prayer in the beautiful, imperiled world we share.

Living with dyslexia has been an uphill struggle, from the day I started school until the day I left to go to work and even after going to work, where I found that there where bullies in the workplace where they thought it was amusing that people could not spell. Join me on my journey as I recount being a child with dyslexia whilst living in poverty and trying to pick up odd jobs to help provide for my mother from the age of twelve. Whilst writing this book, I have left most of the spelling unchecked in the hopes it would give people an insight into the toils of living with dyslexia and a glimpse inside the way a dyslexic child sees the world. I ask you to read me, if you can.

There are so many people who are suffering in silence. When they're in public, they put on a face as though everything is well. When they are long, they slip back into depression. We need to learn to get along, stop judging, and learn to love one another. That begins with the person you see in the mirror. The most powerful thing in the world is the human mind. People should take the words can't and impossible out of their vocabulary. If those two words are in your vocabulary, you will have a defeated mindset and you will fail before you get started. If you have faith, belief. Come up with a plan and take action. Anything is possible. The power is in belief. If you have the will, anything is possible. The purpose of the material in this book is to give the gift of hope. I want to inspire you people and lift them up. There are some people who are stressed out and depressed and have fallen into a dark place because of things they have experienced in life. Some of them have given up and stopped looking for a way out. If you are in a dark place in life, darkness cannot drive out darkness. It takes light to drive out darkness. We are bombarded with negativity from news and social media all day long. The materials in this book are meant to be a ray of light to drive out the darkness. The short stories in this book are about real people who've made mistakes. You can't make all your mistakes, but you can learn from someone else. Another purpose of this book is to encourage people to use their inner pain and hurt as fuel to push themselves toward their dreams. If you're not happy where you are in life, it's up to you to change it. You have to take responsibility for your life. No one is going to do it for you. No one is going to care for you more than you care for yourself. Here is a list of some of the topics that will be discussed in this book: learning disabilities, depression, loneliness, suicide, intuition, solitude, self-love, self-hate, self-worth, self-esteem, stress, and much more.

It is really strange to live with the unknown and still know that there is something not right with you. I knew that I was intelligent and came from two families that had no slouches in the brain areas of life. I have strong genes from many generations of doctors, lawyers, inventors, teachers, plumbers, writers, farmers, adventurers, and women who were strong great leaders, and I wondered why I was not living up to the genes that must also be flowing through my veins. It always felt like my life was one step forward and two steps back. I do all right in the arts, but you cannot make it in this life without math and reading. I rarely got a grade higher than an S for satisfactory or a C+. Even with a higher education and the level of a senior administrator before quitting the business world, the feeling that I should be doing better never left my mind and ego until the day many years later that I learned the answer.

“A Journey with Dyslexia” is an educational descriptive Essay of 16680 words about Peter (77) and his experiences in overcoming dyslexia. Peter started exploring dyslexia when he was diagnosed at age 23. He has taught himself to read and write and now feels he has the knowledge to help dyslexic sufferers and school teachers. His educational handbook describes procedures for creating neural pathways that could enable sufferers to learn to read and write. Peter experienced frustration, discrimination, lack of confidence, and poor self-esteem. He overcame all the trials. With sixty years of personal experience, Peter now understands what happened to him and continues to progress. In his early childhood, he had many negative experiences that caused extreme stress. He started to realise that he was not stupid and that he might even be intelligent. Through determination, he looked for clues that linked every part of his life and formed a complete picture of his dyslexic experience. He used this to compile evidence of his experience with dyslexia and its many traits. However, with the techniques that helped him, he helped others develop neural pathways. At fifty-five, after purchasing a computer, he wrote a story, fulfilling a lifelong wish. After writing it he found he could read novels, understand the story, its twists and turns, and remember the plot. To date, he has written six unpublished fantasy novels. At sixty-seven, He was diagnosed as autistic and needed to reassess his dyslexic journey in the light of this diagnosis. In his seventies, Peter understood his journey had come full circle. He had beneficial knowledge to share with teachers, students, and parents. He used the strategies he developed for himself to help others.
