  Latonya’s family wasn’t just a story of growth—it was a legacy of love, passed down through generations like a cherished melody. The ten children, once tiny hands gripping their mother’s fingers, grew into adults who carried the warmth of their upbringing into their own homes. And then, in another beautiful chapter, the grandchildren arrived. 
  The house, once filled with the laughter of ten, now echoed with the voices of their children’s children—a new chorus of joy, energy, and the unmistakable bonds of family. The older generations watched with knowing smiles as the cycle repeated: lullabies whispered in the night, scraped knees kissed away, tiny arms reaching up for comfort.  
  Blessed by God, the family expanded not just in number but in depth. Love multiplied again, just as it had before—unrestricted, unwavering. Grandparents became storytellers, sharing wisdom wrapped in a nostalgic glow. Parents became mentors, guiding their children with the same patience and grace they had been taught.  
  And in the midst of it all, the grandchildren thrived—living proof that the love instilled in the first generation was meant to last forever.

  Buddhism is all about training the mind, and boot camp is an ideal training method for this generation's short attention span. The chapters in this small book can be read in any order, and are simple and easy to understand. Each story, inspirational quote, and teaching offers mindfulness-enhancing techniques that anyone can relate to. You don't need to be a Buddhist to find the Buddha's teachings motivational. As the Dalai Lama says, "Don't try to use what you learn from Buddhism to be a Buddhist; use it to be a better whatever-you-already-are." 
  So whether it's Mother Teresa's acts of charity, Gandhi's perseverance, or your aunt Betty's calm demeanor, as long as you're motivated to be better today than you were yesterday, it doesn't matter who inspires you. Regardless of religion, geographical region, race, ethnicity, color, gender, sexual orientation, age, ability, flexibility, or vulnerability, if you do good you feel good, and if you do bad you feel bad. 
  Buddhism isn't just about meditating. It's about rolling up your sleeves to relieve some of the suffering in the world. If you are ready to be a soldier of peace in the army of love, welcome to Buddhist Boot Camp!

  Without Her - A Chronicle of...

  “What is comfort but a filament between past and present with some sort of future implied? In other words, safety. In other words, care. I know it is possible to find these things without her—I know they are there. But it can be so hard to ask. So much is unknown.”  Rebecca Spiegel is working as a teacher in New Orleans when she learns of her sister’s suicide. Only after the funeral does shock give way to grief—and to many questions. How could Emily do this to herself? How could she have abandoned all those who loved her? And what could have been done differently to prevent this devastating loss?  In the days and weeks that follow, Spiegel embarks on a search for answers. She unpacks family history, documents the last traces of her sister’s life, and questions what more she could have done to prevent her death. What she finds instead is that there is no narrative on the other side of grief like this. There is no answer, no easy resolution—only those that leave and those that keep living. Unflinchingly honest, visceral, and raw, this courageous elegy lays bare the hard realities of surviving the loss of a loved one.
