  WARNING 
  Your life can be drastically affected by the content of this book. 
  It reveals the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. 
  Firstly, you, whoever you are, only have one life; whether you like it or not, this is it. This life is all there is; when it is exhausted, there is no more. It is not a dress rehearsal before the act; it is the act. When you die, you will vanish into infinite nothingness for all eternity. Secondly, you only have one duty in this life, and that duty is to be yourself. That is the person you genuinely are outside the contamination of your past conditioning. It is the only way to fulfil your potential. Thirdly, you only have one purpose for this life: to live your life fully. You are the ultimate being in your universe; as such, you are entitled to and should accept nothing less than a life lived fully. Fourthly, an essential requirement for achieving such a life is to make it about you and what matters to you. Make you the centre of your life. Fifthly, to achieve this type of life you must learn what life is, who you are, how you fit into life and, above all else, how to make the most of this position to achieve your full potential. The journey towards gaining this knowledge begins in the first chapter of this book.

  How to Get Over a Breakup - An...

  Ovid

  Breakups are the worst. On one scale devised by psychiatrists, only a spouse's death was ranked as more stressful than a marital split. Is there any treatment for a breakup? The ancient Roman poet Ovid thought so. Having become famous for teaching the art of seduction in The Art of Love, he then wrote Remedies for Love (Remedia Amoris), which presents thirty-eight frank and witty strategies for coping with unrequited love, falling out of love, ending a relationship, and healing a broken heart. How to Get Over a Breakup presents an unabashedly modern prose translation of Ovid's lighthearted and provocative work, complete with a lively introduction. 
   
   
   
  Ovid's advice—which he illustrates with ingenious interpretations of classical mythology—ranges from the practical, psychologically astute, and profound to the ironic, deliberately offensive, and bizarre. Some advice is conventional—such as staying busy, not spending time alone, and avoiding places associated with an ex. Some is off-color, such as having sex until you're sick of it. And some is simply and delightfully weird—such as becoming a lawyer and not eating arugula. 
   
   
   
  Whether his advice is good or bad, entertaining or outrageous, How to Get Over a Breakup reveals an Ovid who sounds startlingly modern.

  The ancient Israelites introduced one of the first monotheistic religions in the world. And it is still practiced today! 
  The ancient Israelites emerged from Mount Sinai onto the hilly plains of Canaan and established a civilization that endured for hundreds of years.  
  Even when the Israelites fell to incursions from foreign invaders and were subjected to torture and exile, they held fast to their belief system. They emerged from the Babylonian captivity as the people of Yehud. With the aid of Cyrus the Great and the Achaemenid Empire, they rebuilt their sacred temple and got back on their feet. 
  However, the Greeks and the Romans presented unique challenges to the Judeans. The Hellenization period threatened the foundation of Judaism and the commitment of the Jews to their faith due to forced conversions and the practice of Jewish customs being punishable by death. Regardless, the Jews persevered, and their faith and their steadfastness hold great significance today. 
  This audiobook offers a deep dive into the history of the ancient Israelites and how they rose from nomadic tribes to establish a kingdom and a unique identity in Judea. 
  By listening to this audiobook, you will discover the following: How the ancient Israelites ended up in Canaan and began to build a civilizationThe establishment of the United Kingdom of IsraelThe split of the United Kingdom of Israel and the Babylonian invasion of the Kingdom of JudeaThe Achaemenid liberation of the Jews and the formation of Yehud MedinataThe period and process of Hellenization commenced by the Greeks and the resulting Maccabean Revolt, which gave birth to the Hasmonean dynasty The end of the Hasmoneans and the formation of the Herodian dynastyAnd so much more!

  Stories of heroism, exploration, and sacrifice -- including Apollo XIII and Scott of the Antarctic -- that inspire boys to be courageous, selfless, and open to adventure 
  Tales of brave and selfless deeds used to be part of every boy’s education. We grew up sharing stories with our fathers, uncles, and grandfathers of how other men had lived their lives, met their challenges, reached their goals, and faced their deaths. Becoming a man was about comradeship and standing by your friends whatever the circumstances. And it meant that sometimes it was more important to die a hero than live a coward’s life. Through Neil Oliver’s vivid, stirring accounts we can rediscover the stories that inspire men to perform acts greater than themselves. These are the epics that we should all know by heart; the tales of courage, endurance, and sacrifice that made men out of boys. 
   
  Amazing Tales for Making Men Out of Boys is packed with classic stories of courage and heroism from around the world and includes four stories especially for the American edition: Omaha Beach, June 6th 1944; The Alamo; The Civil War Battle of Shilo; and The Revolutionary War Sea Battle of John Paul Jones and the Bon Homme Richard.
