Summary

We spend a majority of our lives as survivors with no clue what we are actually surviving. To protect us, our brains have frozen in time the incidents fueling our ability to be in denial. Unfortunately, the truth of our sexual abuse seeps out into all areas of our lives, causing us to behave like maligned versions of our true selves. We yell, when we are not yellers. We cheat, when we want love. We drink and abuse drugs when we want to see God. Only through facing the denial do we find our true selves hidden in the cobwebs.Author Kim O’Hara takes the reader through her eleven years of recovery and offers tools and tips to make different choices in living while looking at generational abuse, spirituality, inner child, taking back one’s body, financial independence and romance.By the end of 21 chapters, the reader experiences a transformation in how they approach living as a survivor.

    WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? 
    Every time another American law enforcement officer is hurt or killed doing something odd, this is the first thing that comes to my mind. If you are thinking of going into law enforcement, already an officer, or are a friend or family member of one and want some insight into the mindset such an individual needs to have, this book was written for you. 
    I won’t make any promises that this book will make you or them the safest cop on the streets. I wish I could, but none of us even know whether we have the next five minutes until we take our last breath. That doesn’t mean we should live our lives in fear, nor should we live like our lives don’t matter. My intention in writing this book is to help save lives by giving a different perspective of what it means to be a cop, using humor when possible. 
    What I will promise the reader is this: I will always tell you the truth, to the best of my knowledge.  
    — Don P. Price 
    Incidents in this book are real events that happened very much as written, either to the author or one of his co-workers. Anyone who has an interest in the safety and well-being of law enforcement officers (LEOs), and their relationships with their friends and families, will have a better grasp of why they behave like they do. Dealing daily with strangers having one of the worst days of their lives takes a toll on these exceptional individuals. Having a certain mindset can make all the difference towards them making it home in one piece at the end of the day...and emotionally surviving to do it all again tomorrow. If you haven't a clue what it means to be a LEO, but simply want to get a glimpse behind the badge- if you want to share the adventure and boredom, the humor and the sadness, the fear and the anxiety these folks experience on any given day, then you should listen to this book!

    The stench of decay pierced the air aboard the boxcar of trapped Jews. "Why me?" fifteen-year-old Max asked himself, as a convoy rumbled from the Warsaw Ghetto to Majdanek death camp in May 1943. 
     
     
     
    The Nazis had destroyed the Glauben family's business, upended their rights, and ultimately decimated their neighborhood. The deluge of questions would only intensify after the Nazis murdered Max's mother, father, and brother. Max channeled grit and determination to outlast six horrific concentration camps in his quest to survive. 
     
     
     
    This memoir explores Max's mischievous childhood and teen years as a go-to ghetto smuggler. Max journeys from displaced person to American immigrant and Korean veteran. He reveals how he ached as he dared to court love and rear children. For decades, he bottled up his trauma. Then he realized: He could transform his pain into purpose. 
     
     
     
    Infused with raw emotion and vivid detail, historical records and Max's poignant voice, this memoir relays the true story of the dehumanization Max endured. It also relays Max's powerful lifetime commitment to actively thwarting hate and galvanizing resilience. Max insists you, too, can transform your adversity into your greatest strength.

    This is Annie Ernaux’s account of her passionate love affair with A., a man some thirty years younger, when she was in her fifties. The relationship pulls her back to memories of her own youth and, at the same time, leaves her feeling ageless, outside of time—together with a sense that she is living her life backwards. Amidst talk of having a child together, she feels time running its course and menopause approaching. The Young Man recalls Ernaux as the “scandalous girl” she once was but is composed with the mastery and the self-assurance she has achieved across decades of writing.
