  Still struggling to help your ADHD child? 
  Do you see any or many of these signs and symptoms of ADHD in your child? 
  - Loses important things 
  - Disorganized 
  - Distracted 
  - No follow-through 
  - Avoids mental effort 
  - Doesn't listen 
  - Inattentive 
  - Careless 
  - Spacey 
  - Forgetful 
  - Poor focus 
  If you’re seeing more than a handful of these characteristics, you can’t ignore them.  
  These behaviors indicate a child who is not fully present and not able to embrace the joy available in life. With these behaviors, often they find it impossible to interact in a cooperative, productive, and fulfilling way with other people. They don’t do as well in school, and this affects their future career possibilities. 
  When your child acts up with the symptoms of ADHD, it can put you right on your “last nerve,” and you want a solution. But you’re also recognizing that simply giving your child a pill every day may not be the best or most responsible thing to do. 
  Sure, you can get specialized testing and simply “get a pill” 
  OR 
  You can be a real parent and learn the true MEANING of their behavior, as well as what you can do to help. 
  There IS a Solution to Help a Child with ADHD without Medication 
  I’m here to tell you that there IS a solution for the symptoms you’re seeing in your child. And we’re not talking about controlling or minimizing the symptoms of ADHD. That’s not nearly enough. 
  We’re talking about a real transformation where your child becomes truly happy, fulfilled, responsible, and, well, a human being again - almost always without the use of medications, which have a serious list of possible long-term side effects 
  You can do this, so let's get started.

  Folk Myths and Legends -...

  Since the dawn of civilization, storytelling has been an essential part of human culture. Long before written language, myths and legends were passed down through generations, shaping societies, preserving history, and explaining the mysteries of the world. These tales, often woven with elements of the supernatural, serve not only as entertainment but also as a means of teaching values, reinforcing traditions, and connecting people to their heritage. Whether told around a fire, painted on cave walls, or transcribed into sacred texts, myths and legends offer profound insights into the beliefs and customs of different cultures.  
  One of the most remarkable aspects of folklore is its universality. While each culture has its own unique stories, striking similarities emerge when comparing myths from different parts of the world. Themes of creation, heroism, trickery, love, and the afterlife appear across civilizations, suggesting a shared human experience. The flood myth, for example, exists in various forms in Mesopotamian, biblical, Hindu, and Indigenous traditions, each with its own interpretation but conveying a common theme of destruction and renewal. These recurring motifs highlight how storytelling transcends time and geography, reinforcing the idea that despite cultural differences, people everywhere grapple with similar questions about existence, morality, and destiny.  
  Myths and legends also serve as powerful tools for shaping identity and societal values. Many of history’s greatest civilizations—Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Chinese, among others—built their cultural foundations upon stories of gods, heroes, and mythical creatures. These tales not only provided explanations for natural phenomena but also established codes of behavior, demonstrating the rewards of courage, loyalty, and wisdom while warning against greed, deceit, and hubris.

  The Illusory Bargain - Liberty...

  Out-of-control debt. Populism. Political vitriol and corruption. Where did America go wrong? Or rather, when did America go wrong?
  
  1913. The Seventeenth Amendment is ratified, allowing the people of America to vote directly for their senators in the US senate. The same year, the Federal Reserve Act is passed, establishing a central bank to oversee monetary policy. In The Illusory Bargain, Ralph H. Lehman demonstrates that these seemingly empowering and people-serving pieces of legislature were just that-an illusion. Tracing the vision of the Founding Fathers as outlined in The Federalist Papers, Lehman reveals how the safety features of the original constitutional framework have eroded since and given way to rampant abuse of power and arbitrary, tyrannical law.
  
  Through fresh, historically informed insights and over twenty years of financial expertise, Lehman reexamines the nation's fundamental values and proposes what may be the only course of action left to restore our liberty.

  Answer to Job

  C. G. Jung

  Of all the books of the Bible, few have had more resonance for modern listeners than the Book of Job.  
   
  For a world that over the past century has witnessed horrors the like of which could not have been imagined by earlier generations, Job’s cries of despair and incomprehension are all too recognisable. The visionary psychotherapist Carl Gustav Jung understood this and responded with this remarkable book, in which he set himself face to face with 'the unvarnished spectacle of divine savagery and ruthlessness'.  
   
  Jung perceived in the hidden recesses of the human psyche the cause of a crisis that plagues modern humanity and leaves the individual, like Job, isolated and bewildered in the face of impenetrable fortune. By correlating the transcendental with the unconscious, Jung, writing not as a biblical scholar but 'as a layman and physician who has been privileged to see deeply into the psychic life of many people', offers a way for every listener to come to terms with the divine darkness which confronts each individual.  
   
  Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) founded the analytical school of psychology and developed a radical new theory of the unconscious. Translated by R. F. C. Hull.
