  Ten Ways to Find Love and How to...

  A guide to romance in the digital world.  
   
  Everyone is looking for love … but the search for love in the twenty-first century is fraught with obstacles (not least among them pandemics), uncertainties (does romantic love really exist, and if it does, are we worthy of it?) and contradictions (the popularity of dating apps versus our cynicism about them).  
   
  Although modern society and media have sold us the fairytale of that one big, romantic love – chemistry, sparks, passion – the majority of people don’t think a big love can be discovered on dating apps. Which is a shame, since so many of us find ourselves on them! Sure, you can find a hook-up, but that person needs to be announced by some sort of special, face-to-face, meet-cute experience.  
   
  Complicating the issue is our consumer culture’s fixation on the disposable and the new. When it comes to finding love, many of us become stuck in a cycle of looking for the next, even better relationship. Ironically, while we’re on this quest for romantic novelty, we may also be craving long-term partnerships, feeling like failures if we don’t achieve them. But then again … the stuff that makes up these long-term partnerships doesn’t look like fun – it looks more like work.  
   
  How can we reconcile these conflicting desires?  
   
  A media commentator, podcaster and academic, with a PhD in dating apps and intimacy, Dr Lisa Portolan has conducted hundreds of interviews and surveys over many years on the question of what love looks like in the digital age. Here she draws on her findings to present strategies to help you navigate the complexities of real-world relationships in order to achieve – and maintain – a successful, committed partnership. Case studies are woven throughout, authentic voices representing all aspects of the seeking, finding and keeping of love.  
   
  And what is the most profound lesson to be drawn from this incisive, compassionate, often humorous handbook? Ultimately, the pursuit of love is not just about finding a soulmate – it’s about becoming a better version of ourselves in the process.

  The lives and writings of six leading Black Buddhist women—Jan Willis, bell hooks, Zenju Earthlyn Manuel, angel Kyodo williams, Spring Washam, and Faith Adiele—reveal new expressions of Buddhism rooted in ancestry, love, and collective liberation. 
   
   
   
  Lifting as They Climb is a love letter of freedom and self-expression from six Black women Buddhist teachers, conveyed through the voice of author Toni Pressley-Sanon, one of the innumerable people who have benefitted from their wisdom. She explores their remarkable lives and undertakes deep readings of their work, weaving them into the broader tapestry of the African diaspora and the historical struggle for Black liberation. 
   
   
   
  Black women in the U.S. have adapted Buddhist practice to meet challenges ranging from the injustices of the Jim Crow South to sexual violence, social discrimination, and bias within their Buddhist communities. Using their voices through the practice of memoir and other forms of writing, they have not only realized their own liberation but carried forward the Black tradition of leading others on the path toward collective awakening.

  Why this book? 
  In many ways, Haber is one of those Spanish verbs that really does not get the attention it deserves. It constantly surprises us just how misunderstood and misused it is.  
  Even though Haber often plays a secondary role in our sentence structures and one of its biggest jobs is to work as a ‘helper’ verb, you will discover that Haber, is by no means a ‘runner up’ verb!  
  Once you learn to manage and use it in a fluent and controlled manner, your Spanish will move ahead leaps and bounds. 
  About this book. 
  This book is designed to take you from the basic yet vital uses of Haber all the way through to what some might describe as the most complex Spanish sentences you can make. It includes:  
  ·        Clear and unambiguous explanations 
  ·        Step by step progress through the tenses 
  ·        Frequent tests to check your understanding 
  ·        Interesting expressions used with Haber 
  ·        The Spanish Subjunctive in all of its glory! 
  We promise you that, once you have completed all of the chapters, your understanding of Haber will find itself exactly where it needs to be! 
    
  Cynthia and Gordon Smith Durán
