Tranquility Teetering on Tears is an insightful observation of a nontraditional society and written by a nontraditional student formed and scripted in a traditional Lutheran University that is currently presided over by a Roman Catholic.The poems are interesting to be sure and question the Christian communities worldwide.This questioning was not the intention of the poet gpb but means of therapy in a world being turned upside down by children of an unknown God.Upsetting at times, yet true to form, in a world population at war rather than love.Just poems, yes, fulfilling the poet's call to discover and teach the meaning of faith, hope, and love.
Seduced by the Dark Side as a book title required little brainstorming as it occurred to me shortly after my decision to write a book detailing my disastrous cyberspace adventure. This title describes my inner experience dramatically and accurately. From the time of its beginning on Saturday morning, October 16, at approximately 11:00 a.m. until Tuesday afternoon, February 8, my life was immersed in a seemingly blissful online relationship that had taken complete control of my thought process. The individual in whom I had confided with reassurances of faithfulness and loyalty turned out to be an unprincipled criminal eager to seize my financial assets greedily and mercilessly, and with no regard for me as a fellow human being.The two principal players were my soul mate, Jane Daley, referred to by her chat handle, Jane Love, and her alleged family attorney, Philip Smith, who supplied me with an array of pseudo-legal documents which provided a means of siphoning my personal funds for transfer into his personal account. Jane Love and Phil Smith gained my confidence and exploited my naivete to perfection. By the time I realized what had happened, it was too late to turn back. The die had been irretrievably cast.Emotion had trumped intelligence and common sense; however, now I acquired a renewed respect for doubting third parties. This life lesson was one that I learned the hard way. In the aftermath, I concluded that the best and most feasible way to confront this undeniable catastrophe and recover from it would be to retell said catastrophe to a wide audience. My aim would be twofold: recover lost assets and alert other prospective victims of cybercrime.

Well, I would like to begin by saying that I am so grateful to Page Publishing. for publishing my second poetry book. It means a lot to me to be published not just once but twice in this lifetime. Also I would like to tell you how I got my inspiration from my first poem. Our English teacher gave us an assignment when I was in the fifth grade to write a poem. I asked her directly, "What is a poem?" She basically said to write about things that are important to you from your own perspective. Well, I was quite confused about how I was going to write the assignment. At that time, my sister Debbie came by to visit me. She brought me a special gift--perfume. I looked at the bottle which has the name of the perfume: "Timeless". I started thinking about it when I surprised myself with my first poem titled "Endless as Time". Time is endless. Such profound words as well as the poem.
Born to WinYou cannot buy peace of mind at a pharmacy. Try to always keep a clean conscience so that you can always look into the eyes of others. Make an effort to think positively. Learn to control the quality and quantity of your thoughts. This is very important if you want to be happy. Your mind is not meant to be destroyed with drugs, vices, and negative thoughts. Your mind is meant to be disciplined, developed, and educated. If there is no inner peace, there is no world peace. The Mantra Yoga Meditation technique is an essential discipline you can use to strengthen, purify, and train your mind. Without control of the mind, there is no success.Choose to succeed!

My pretty baby She could not stay Fate took her Far far away Across the oceans And across many seas So many many miles Away for me We had good times And we had great fun But now our days Are all but done And so our paths diverge As we drifted apart While learning to appreciate the memories Of once having known a warm heart? ________________________________________________How I met my first real girlfriend?After playing a softball game with a couple of my brothers, everyone went back to somebody's house to party. My younger brother showed up with the woman he eventually married, and his friend showed up with her friend. Her friend was being pretty serious, so I asked her a series of serious questions about herself.She said she graduated second in her class, was the head pom-pom girl in high school, was teaching aerobics, studying aerodynamic engineering, had a curator scholarship, was on the dean's list, and had straight As.After she had gone for a little while, I looked at her with a simple dumb looking face and paid her a compliment.In an overly self-confident simpleton tone, I said, "You know...that ain't half bad for a girl."Then I just counted backward from three and watched the emotion build on her face.She exploded right on cue and said, "Not bad for a girl?"And then she started to vent.After ten seconds or so, my look of puzzlement gave way, and I looked out of the corner of my eyes to the right and then to the left. I looked back at her, and a small smile appeared.She knew something was up and came to an immediate stop. She looked to the left and then to the right. Everybody was looking at her like she had lost her cool.She looked at me and said, "I hate you," and then made her exit in style. I didn't see her after that for a few months, but I knew, with the good guys up by one, it would be interesting when I would see her. Our paths crossed again a few months later, around Christmas, and she was eager to even score.

Going, going, gone. That was how many MLB broadcasters would describe home runs, which were my favorite aspect of my favorite sport, baseball. That is where the title of this book originated. Sadly, MLB has been changing over the past several years. My favorite sport has become maddening, difficult to watch, and the adoration I had for MLB players and teams has evaporated. This book describes my opinions on what has happened to MLB, which I believe is destroying its future. The book starts with my childhood experiences and favorite MLB heroes, which I believe many fans of my generation, in particular, can understand and relate to. I am hoping it sparks similar fond memories for my readers.The book moves on to the top reasons why MLB has been diminished, and now it has a very uncertain long-term future.These are all my opinions, and my hope is that it increases the reader's understanding of what is happening to the sport I once loved so much.--Eric L. Marcus

Educators are naturally viewed as reflective practitioners, with time to think, ponder, vision, and design being key to the art and craft of the role itself. This is especially true of educational leaders--teachers, facilitators, administrators, and superintendents. We know that we lead more effectively when practicing deep reflection, demonstrating the desire to take action in order to serve others while honoring the greatness that exists in so many of our learning environments. With deep reflection and action comes a lot of emotion, a lot of conversations, a lot of missteps, and a lot of accomplishments. It is these experiences that dictate the ultimate need to capture lessons learned. One must understand that the lessons can provide a platform to assist one another in reaching higher, addressing new challenges confidently, persevering through extreme adversity, and exploring opportunities never considered before as we all answer our own calling. We consider the need for reflection by leaders as necessary to honor the past and to build a pathway to future success. We find ourselves in unprecedented times in the world of educational leadership, yet recognize that the principles and foundational pieces that have been a part of our work remain constant. Embracing reflection allows us to honor the past, while best serving in the unknown, tumultuous and exciting future. It creates the opportunity to unload and process our experiences while learning from one another. We must provide a space that inspires others to engage in this during their leadership experiences. This is the basis for our story.
