As a retired death investigator, I have discovered throughout my career that what I once interpreted as normalcy was grossly misunderstood. I have learned that lifestyles greatly vary from individual to individual, situation to situation, and ideology to ideology. A "normal situation" and "normal behavior" are relative to any given individual in any given environment. The inevitability of death is highly overwhelming. There are some who fear death. But, little do they know, fear has nothing to do with death, for it is death that fears nothing. At the core of the fear of death is the fear of destruction, which refers to the extinction of mind, spirit, soul, and the destruction of the body- that is nonexistent.This book is the true story and behind-the-scene look into the case of Jean Stevens. A case that would change my life, both professionally and personally, forever. Together, Jean and I learned from each other. This case is particularly of interest since it caters to the topic of death and life and how loneliness brings havoc in our normally functioning life. Since death separates one being from the other, the feeling of never meeting the one that is gone is excruciating. This permanent separation can drive people to do things they wouldn't usually consider doing. How far would you go to remain with the ones you love? You will learn how far an elderly woman went to remain with hers.

Today, it is difficult to imagine a fashion show of a high-end brand without the presence of Asian and Black models. However, until the mid-20th century, it was considered a taboo. Who were the pioneers to break this barrier and tread this new and difficult path?For the very first time in the history of high fashion, a model with a non-European appearance graced the runways - Alla Ilchun. Discovered by Dior himself, she was described by him as "one of the born mannequins". In the United States, she held the esteemed title of Ambassador for the House of Dior.Since 1947, the creative concept behind Dior's New Look was often perceived as a new trend in fashion. This book presents a much broader context of the New Look concept that includes a human component: a new type of model. A woman for whom this fashion design was created. Alla was an Asian beauty whose body perfectly corresponded to the aesthetic of the New Look. Her impassive, distant, and notably aristocratic expression captivated the couturier's attention.However, the story of her appearance at Dior has remained a mystery until recently. Her name was doomed to be forgotten. This amazing story of the Muse of Dior as a bearer of multiculturalism is explored in our books "L'Énigme d'Alla. Muse de Dior" (2021) in French and "A Pearl of the Orient at Dior" (2022) in Chinese. The value of these books along with their English counterparts lies in the fact that we rely on official documents, unique photographs, and diverse sources of information about Alla's saga. The story of Alla Ilchun, as an Icon of the New Look and Muse of the great couturier, is a story of wisdom and foresight of the legendary architect of fashion and elegance, Christian Dior.

Now, the more Rachel, Miles, Angelo, and Clayton discover about their abilities and their pasts, the more dangerous their lives become.

"Your writing is a treasury of enlightened wisdom."-- Andres GosisThe Apocalypse is a necessary catalyst for evolutionary leapfrogging. Despite appearances and misunderstandings, the Apocalypse is not a collective event, but rather, can only occur on an individual basis, one person at a time.For some, the Apocalypse hasn't begun. It isn't even on the horizon. Of course the majority of people are in the terrifying midst of it. Over a million species are going extinct now, AND WE ARE ON THAT LIST. The world is getting sucked into a vortex, a whirlpool, getting flushed down the toilet, spinning faster and faster by the day. We are getting pulled into a black hole, and we are far past the event horizon. There is no escaping, no turning back. THE ONLY WAY OUT IS THROUGH.For a few of us, THE APOCALYPSE IS LONG PAST. It happened to us individually, personally, privately. Trauma, illness, psychosis, existential disillusionment, a broken heart, or maybe just a good old-fashioned ENLIGHTENMENT - any of these can be the catalyst for a TRANSMORGRIFICATION of such magnitude that both who we are, and our entire world, undergo a death. The rug is yanked out from under our feet and everything we were, and everything we knew, is no more.The tragedy is real. The loss is real. The death is real. But when you lose everything, the space is created for the miracle to appear. This book is about that miracle.Author biography: Randy was born in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.

This book is a compilation of short stories ranging from my own life experience, stories that I have created, and some dreams that I've had while sleeping or meditating... Some are fictional while others are in fact true stories and I like to leave that for you to decipher which ones may or may not be real to you.. While using my silver cord during meditation I have had some out of body experiences that make for some great stories... Most of my inspiration and writings come from my personal life experiences from when I was just a young boy to a teenager in high school and into adulthood... The title of the book is in honor of my clique the hood rats from St. Petersburg Florida where we grew up hanging out in the alley by the overpass... We have so many stories that this book really only scratches the surface and I plan on writing a sequel as a novel to "The Book of Devastation..." Obviously, I will be putting a twist on the story to make it a fictional novel but is it fictional? I truly do believe the reality of our spirituality.. Its up to you to decide what to believe and what not to believe. I think that is what makes this book somewhat devastating to hear because I lay it all out on the line for people to read. No holding back I thought and is also what makes it so funny and interesting to read at the same time. Its straight to the point and tells the stories nice and handsomely... I also covet some ideas that we are just now becoming aware of today concerning spirituality that will make for some interesting things to come, I believe. A time machine? Who needs a time machine if you're a spiritual warrior... In magic the possibilities are endless so I invite you to open your heart and mind to our universe and the possibilities we are so lucky to embrace today. A big shout out to my family and friends along with my heavenly family you know who you are. Thank you for your support it really means the world to me... I hope you like it! See ya real soon! As if... lol

Let's start at the beginning.On the Fourth of July 1776 the Declaration of Independence was signed by 56 founding fathers. All thirteen original colonies were represented. This document created the United States of America. The objective of the declaration was to create a new nation by breaking away from a repressive English government.Major concepts of the declaration include that "All Men are Created Equal", Governments are instituted by men to secure rights such as "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" and in conclusion: "Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it. But that long established governments should not be changed 'for light and transient causes'".The last concept listed above will be the foundation for this book. In my opinion, and many people feel this way, the current two-party system of the United States has created a form of government that is destructive. I also believe the right of the people to alter the government should be invoked. As Founding Father John Dickinson mentioned in his "Liberty Song" "Then join hand in hand, brave Americans all, By Uniting we Stand, By Dividing we Fall."

Is there a God? Can religion be compatible with science? Why do terrible things happen to good people? You are on a lifetime journey seeking answers to these questions. The author, a scientist and business leader, shares insights carefully collected and collated during his 70-year quest, and provides some surprising, illuminating, and stimulating ideas to point you in the right direction."Ron Stephens does not write poetry or prose so much as he writes holy texts. With his layered, complex, mystical, and yet down-to-earth language, he manages to see eternity not just in a grain of sand, as Blake did, but in every object he encounters, in every experience, and in every tick of the clock. Loves Songs of the Zombie is an astonishing work-heartfelt, quirky, unorthodox as hell, but wholistic and hopeful. In Stephens's work, to my appreciative surprise, I see the revival of the spirit of the great mystic poet Angelus Silesius. Stephens is worth reading, reading again, and taking seriously." -Robert Hudson, author, The Beautiful Madness of Martin Bonham, The Poet and the Fly, Kiss the Earth When You Pray, and several others.
