  Forgiveness - Healing the Wounds...

  Forgiveness is often seen as a personal choice—a decision to let go of past hurts and allow ourselves to heal. At its core, it is the process of releasing resentment, anger, or thoughts of revenge toward someone who has wronged us. While it may seem like an act of kindness directed at others, true forgiveness is, in fact, a gift we give ourselves. By forgiving, we free ourselves from the emotional and mental weight of holding onto painful experiences. 
  It is important to recognize that forgiveness is not the same as excusing the harmful behavior. It doesn’t mean that the hurtful actions are acceptable or that we should forget about the wrongs done to us. Forgiveness is not a dismissal of pain; rather, it is a conscious choice to stop allowing that pain to control our lives. When we forgive, we are not condoning the actions of others, but instead, we are choosing to release the grip that the negative emotions tied to those actions have on us. 
  The power of forgiveness lies in its ability to release us from the shackles of negative emotions. Holding onto anger, resentment, or hurt can poison our well-being and cloud our perception of life. By forgiving, we begin the healing process, allowing ourselves to move forward rather than remain stuck in the past. Forgiveness also creates space for growth, both personally and in our relationships with others. It opens up the possibility for renewed connections and understanding.

  Attack on Pearl Harbor: America...

  On December 7th 1941 as World War II raged, the focus of attention was snatched from the battlefields of Europe and diverted to the smoke and flames rising from the American Naval Base in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor. The Empire of the Rising Sun had finally struck, piercing the heart of the US navy in a bid to ensure that their plans for an Asian Empire, every bit as ambitious as Adolf Hitler’s Thousand Year Reich, were not threatened. 
   
  But as the injured were rushed to safety and America reeled from the shock of the Japanese attack, those battling against Hitler, most notably Winston Churchill and the people of Great Britain, were able to find some comfort in the tragedy, because America’s President, Franklin D Roosevelt, could now justify bringing the United States into the war. 
   
  The story of Pearl Harbor may have been told many times, but it’s nonetheless always fascinating and in this journal, we will have the opportunity to revisit the events of that monumental day as they unfolded, from the bombing of the USS Panay to the attack on Pearl itself, while discovering the reasons why the Japanese fleets travelled far across the ocean, to pick a fight with World War II’s sleeping giant.

  "The Athenian Constitution" by Aristotle is a treatise on the ancient Greek city-state of Athens and its political structure. In the work, Aristotle examines the historical development of the Athenian government, the functions of its various institutions, and the role of its citizens in the decision-making process. Aristotle divides the Athenian government into three main types: monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy. He argues that the Athenian government evolved from a monarchy to an aristocracy, and eventually to a democracy, which he believes to be the best form of government. Read in English, unabridged.

  Underground Empire - How America...

  A deeply researched investigation that reveals how the United States is like a spider at the heart of an international web of surveillance and control, which it weaves in the form of globe-spanning networks such as fiber optic cables and obscure payment systemsAmerica’s security state first started to weaponize these channels after 9/11, when they seemed like necessities to combat terrorism—but now they’re a matter of course. Multinational companies like AT&T and Citicorp build hubs, which they use to make money, but which the government can also deploy as choke points. Today’s headlines about trade wars, sanctions, and technology disputes are merely tremors hinting at far greater seismic shifts beneath the surface.Slowly but surely, Washington has turned the most vital pathways of the world economy into tools of domination over foreign businesses and countries, whether they are rivals or allies, allowing the U.S. to maintain global supremacy. In the process, we have sleepwalked into a new struggle for empire. Using true stories, field-defining findings, and original reporting, Henry Farrell and Abraham Newman show how the most ordinary aspects of the post–Cold War economy have become realms of subterfuge and coercion, and what we must do to ensure that this new arms race doesn’t spiral out of control.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
