Sinopsis

The trail follows the emergence of democratic thought and action in Scotland from the 16th century onwards, linking pivotal events to locations along the way. It is a story of ups and downs, triumphs and tragedies, borne along by a stubborn, persistent advance.


The evolution of democracy in Scotland is a fascinating story. Join Stuart McHardy and Donald Smith as they tell this story via a guided tour of the landmarks and monuments of Edinburgh, leading you from Edinburgh Castle to the Scottish Parliament, and through over 500 years of political development.

    A Pain in my Ass - Explicit sex...

    If there is one thing I believe I have held fast all these years, it is the one that holds no shame in all the intricacies of the human mind, body, and soul. What intrigues me the most is how two or more people can create rhythms, music, trust, and bodily pleasure. No matter what debauchery society might try to bestow on those who seek a little bit of freedom using a natural and exciting mechanism, I offer no judgment. This book is a series of stories to “get the juices flowing” and probably allow you to be more comfortable with yourself and maybe your partner(s). Outlined is an array of adventures, kinky twists, and quirks you will enjoy. I know I certainly enjoyed curating them for you. 
    This book is a no-holds-barred platform, and it is certainly not a euphemism for the soft, adulterated, hidden wantings of intimacy. 
    It is a dive into the art of satisfying primal needs with drooling, tears, a tinge of unrepentant guilt, and, dare I say, pleasurable heavings, screams, and possible drownings as the best possible side effects. 
    Between your wildest imaginations and a rather sultrily dexterous pen, shameless pleasure is the only goal. 
    With you in mind,

    Julian of Norwich: The Showings...

    "As a major fan and promoter of Julian of Norwich, whom I call 'my favorite mystic', it is genuinely exciting to find such a faithful but freeing translation of Julian's long-lost Showings. Now they are no longer lost—for anyone!"—Fr. Richard Rohr, O.F.M., Center for Action and Contemplation 
     In this contemporary translation of one of the most beloved and influential mystical texts of all time, Julian of Norwich: The Showings brings the message and spirituality of this 14th-century mystic to 21st-century readers. Revelations of Divine Love, the first book published in English attributed to a woman, is also included.  
     Julian of Norwich, a contemporary of Geoffrey Chaucer, was an English anchoress in East Anglia. At the age of 30, suffering from a severe illness and believing she was on her deathbed, Julian had a series of intense visions of Jesus, which she recorded and then expanded on later in her life. In her visions, God was not angry and wrathful. Instead, the three properties of God were presented as life, love, and light, and all of His creation was good, including his servant, man. In Julian's version, man is not to blame for his sin; sin is something that he must experience and overcome in his spiritual journey with God.  
     Her message for today's readers is simply this: 
    She reveals the feminine face of the Divine and reminds us to see God there.All our failings are an opportunity to learn and grow; they should be honored, but not dwelled upon.God's love has nothing to do with love and retribution and everything to do with love and compassion.In spite of all appearances, all is well. This book contains some of the most profound spiritual writing ever written and remains a perennial favorite among Christians. 
     This book was previously published as The Showings of Julian of Norwich. This new edition includes a foreword by Richard Rohr, author of Falling Upwards.
