In this book, I attempt to facilitate understand and appreciation of Past, Present, and Future conditions of human life, expressing genuinely the changes that have affected human cultures over the ages. I make suggestions to effect dynamic social behavior, dealing with oppression and protest through-out the world and Mans undying quest for happiness and freedom: as he struggles to overcome barriers that engulfs him with conflict. Through verse, the book gives important information that will be useful to human life for many years to come, persuading his fellow man, by joining in the crusade for a Better World. The book generates hope and trepidation, expressing ideas that are crucially relevant to our time. During my years of life, I have gathered philosophies and experiences that have conditioned my views, hence, I try to motivate, through poetry, the spirits of my fellow man, spurring him on to a more positive understanding. Through observation, I strive to point out many details of this troubled world, attempting to bring my community to the river of originality and truth. I sincerely indulge my readers to seek out the meaning of life through contentment and love: and thereby enrich themselves. This book gives blood to the awareness of lifes condition. It is significant, authentic and absorbing, sharing information and feeling with the human spirit. It highlights some of the fascinating circumstances of life, like a silent marine of the beginning, or the noise and horror of the end. This book shows man struggling to find love by overcoming his fears, suffering in and out of relationships to survive in an uncertain world. The compelling poems delivered here, shows the savagery of human life with bold uniqueness that spans many generations, cultures, and ages of life. It deals with the conflicts, passions, and turbulance of many personages: and highlights, with flamboyance, the shattering horrors and tragedies of modern life. The book makes us think and we become players and witnesses in the dramas of life; as we seek explanation to lifes beauties and mysteries.

A collection of speeches by the much-admired congresswoman on the importance of ethics, the threat of tyranny, faith and politics, and more. Through her career as a Texas senator, US congresswoman, and distinguished professor at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs, Barbara Jordan lived by a simple creed: “Ethical behavior means being honest, telling the truth, and doing what you said you were going to do.” Her strong stand for ethics in government, civil liberties, and democratic values still provides a standard around which the nation can unite in the twenty-first century. This volume collects several major speeches that articulate her most deeply held values. They include: “Erosion of Civil Liberties,” a commencement address delivered at Howard University on May 12, 1974, in which Jordan warned that “tyranny in America is possible” “The Constitutional Basis for Impeachment,” Jordan’s ringing defense of the US Constitution before the House Judiciary Committee investigating the Watergate break-in Keynote addresses to the 1976 and 1992 Democratic National Conventions, in which Jordan set forth her vision of the party as an advocate for the common good and catalyst of change Testimony in the U.S. Congress on the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork and on immigration reform Meditations on faith and politics from two National Prayer Breakfasts Acceptance speech for the 1995 Sylvanus Thayer Award presented by the Association of Graduates of the United States Military Academy, in which Jordan challenged the military to uphold the values of “duty, honor, country” Accompanying the speeches are context-setting introductions by editor Max Sherman as well as the eloquent eulogy Bill Moyers delivered at Jordan’s memorial service, in which he summed up her remarkable life and career by saying, “Just when we despaired of finding a hero, she showed up.”

How far do you want God to go in getting your attention? Don't answer too quickly. What if God moved you to another land? (As He did Abraham.) What if He called you out of retirement? (Remember Moses?) How about the voice of an angel or the bowel of a fish (Gideon and Jonah.) God does what it takes to get our attention. That's the message of this book: the relentless pursuit of God.
