  I wasn’t supposed to be here. Not in the poetic look how far I’ve come kind of way. I mean it quite literally. There were moments I thought I had nothing left to give, when the weight of my own thoughts made it hard to breathe, and I started to believe that life was just hard. But a quieter part of me knew that wasn’t the whole truth. Maybe I wasn’t broken, just lost, and perhaps being lost wasn’t something to fear but something to honour. 
  Accompanied by a music album with the same name, Beautifully Lost tells the story of what happened when I finally decided to listen to that voice. Set in crowded streets filled with neon and quiet mornings spent alone with my thoughts, it is a journey through chaos and clarity, mistakes and magic, loss and love. 
  Above all, it is a story of hope, connection, and a reminder that even in the moments we feel lost, there is still beauty to be found.

  These stories were told to me by my friends and family. I've had to struggle with my disability for a long time. I want to write this book, I hope you find it interesting. It's from parts of my life that I've treasured. Especially with my relatives that I didn't know because we lived so far away, 550 miles away, from Indiana to Iowa. I loved our family vacations. You will find some stories from the bible. I hope you will see how important that book is to me. I have trouble every day. but I know He's in my life and without Him, I would not live. I know you have times when you've needed help. For a while, I couldn't even pray. I knew better but I had lost hope. I've had such help from the Veterans. I have friends now. And I trust those whom I know will be O.K. Please read the Biblical stories thoughtfully. They are scriptures passed down from six or seven thousand years ago.

  Angelica - For Love and Country...

  Few women of the American Revolution have come through 250 years of US history with such clarity and color as Angelica Schuyler Church. She was Alexander Hamilton's "saucy" sister-in-law, and the heart of Thomas Jefferson's "charming coterie" of artists and salonnières in Paris. Her transatlantic network of important friends spanned the political spectrum of her time and place, and her astute eye and brilliant letters kept them well informed. 
   
   
   
  A woman of great influence in a time of influential women (Catherine the Great and Marie-Antoinette were contemporaries), Angelica was at the red-hot center of American history at its birth: in Boston, when General Burgoyne surrendered to the revolutionaries; in Newport, receiving French troops under the command of her soon-to-be dear friend Marquis de Lafayette; in Yorktown, just after the decisive battle; in Paris and London, helping to determine the standing of the new nation on the world stage. 
   
   
   
  In this enthralling and revealing woman's-eye view of a revolutionary era, Molly Beer breathes vibrant new life into a period usually dominated by masculine themes and often dulled by familiarity. In telling Angelica's story, she illuminates how American women have always plied influence and networks for political ends, including the making of a new nation.

  Born enslaved. Silenced by force. Awakened by truth and the will to resist.
  In this deeply personal and powerful autobiography, Frederick Douglass recounts his life in bondage with searing honesty—exposing the cruelty of slavery, the violence of oppression, and the moment he claimed ownership of his own mind. More detailed and reflective than his earlier narrative, this work traces his journey from enslavement to freedom, education, and moral awakening.
  
  Regarded as "one of the most important autobiographies in American history," this book stands as both a gripping personal story and a forceful indictment of slavery. Douglass's voice—clear, courageous, and uncompromising—continues to inspire readers across generations.
  
  If you seek truth, resilience, and a story that helped reshape a nation's conscience, this essential classic belongs on your shelf.
  
  Open the book—and witness the making of a voice that refused to be silenced.

  Jeevan Ke Arth Ki Talaash Me...

  About Book 
  A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn't) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. 
  The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living. 
  Viktor Emil Frankl M.D., Ph.D.,  
  was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist as well as a Holocaust survivor. Frankl was the founder of logotherapy, which is a form of Existential Analysis, the "Third Viennese School" of psychotherapy. 
  His book Man's Search for Meaning (first published under a different title in 1959: From Death-Camp to Existentialism. Originally published in 1946 as Ein Psycholog erlebt das Konzentrationslager) chronicles his experiences as a concentration camp inmate and describes his psychotherapeutic method of finding meaning in all forms of existence, even the most sordid ones, and thus a reason to continue living. He was one of the key figures in existential therapy.
