    It was the right thing to do. And someone had to do it. 
    Aziz was more than an interpreter for Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux during Chad's eight deployments to Afghanistan. He was a teammate, brother, and friend. More than once, Aziz saved Chad's life. And then he needed Chad to save his. 
    When President Joe Biden announced in April 2021 that the United States would be making a hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan, Robichaux knew he had to get Aziz and his family out before Taliban forces took over the country. As the rescue team began to go to work, they became aware of thousands more--US citizens, Afghan allies, women, and children--facing persecution. 
    This gripping account of two war heroes and friends puts human hearts and names alongside the headlines of one of the most harrowing moments in our history, giving you a closer look at:The resilience of Afghanistan and its peopleThe twenty-year war that took place under four presidentsA mission accomplished and the work that’s still to be done 
      
    Saving Aziz is more than a story of war and rescue: it's about breaking down prejudice and apathy--and why risking it all is worth it when it comes to loving one another. 
      
    Praise for Saving Aziz: 
    "Saving Aziz is the story of two warriors...brought together by war and a brotherhood forged through years of battling...for the cause of freedom and captures the heroic efforts of those who took action to not only rescue Aziz and his family in the US withdrawal but thousands of others." 
    --Tim Kennedy, New York Times bestselling author, US Army Special Forces, Sniper

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and effective approach to mental health treatment that focuses on the powerful connection between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The premise behind CBT is simple: our thoughts shape how we feel, and how we feel influences how we behave. In turn, our behaviors can either reinforce or challenge our thought patterns. By learning to identify, challenge, and reframe negative or distorted thoughts, CBT offers a roadmap to breaking unhealthy cycles and fostering positive change. 
    The key to lasting improvement in mental health often lies in addressing the underlying thought patterns that influence our emotional states. Our minds can become entrenched in negative thinking habits, which can lead to persistent feelings of sadness, anxiety, or stress. These patterns can often seem automatic or out of our control, but through CBT, we gain the tools to not only understand but actively change how we think. 
    The first step in this process is understanding the role of thought patterns in mental health. We all experience a wide range of thoughts throughout the day, some positive and others negative. While we may not always be able to control what thoughts arise, we can gain control over how we respond to them. Negative thoughts such as self-doubt, catastrophizing, and overgeneralizing can trigger emotional distress, which in turn influences our behaviors. If left unaddressed, these cycles can become entrenched, affecting our overall well-being and quality of life.

    This is a great package of several titles in one book. The topics are all related to the history of the Netherlands. Let’s take a look at the topics. 
    Early Dutch History: The Netherlands has a history that dates far back, even before Roman times. Let’s take a look at what happened during the times of the Romans. I remember visiting the Netherlands and visiting the city of Utrecht, a major hub in the central part of the country. 
    The Batavians: In this book, we will shed more light on the Batavians, a people in history with much bravery, innovation, and determination to form a republic with freedom for its citizens. The Republic of the 7 United Netherlands was followed by the Batavian Republic. 
    The Dutch Empire: The Dutch were all over the world. They "owned" and colonized a big portion of what was then the known world. They were among the first settlers, had the biggest haven and biggest fleet for some time. 
    The Eighty Years War: The war between the protestant Netherlands, mostly led by William of Orange, and Catholic Spain, was one of the marks in Dutch history. This war has determined the beliefs of many people who now live about the three rivers that go through the country: Most of the people north of the rivers are protestant, and most of the believers below them (even throughout Belgium as well) are Catholic. 
    The Golden Age: The Dutch Golden Era was a time in Dutch history varying circa from 1588 (the start of the Dutch Republic) to 1672 (the "Catastrophe Year"), throughout which Dutch trade, science, and art, and the Dutch armed force, were amongst the world's best.
