There are many perspectives about life, so I will like to tell my perspective. When we are born we have no clue of who we really are. We don’t know our names, parents, our purpose or do we? We are taught to think otherwise. We are taught by our parents, and others around us what we are. We are taught how to act, talk, and what truth is. We listen to others while ignoring our own voice within. We start to see through the eyes of other people’s perspectives. We are strayed away from our own thoughts and opinions. How do we take something that someone tells us as truth without question? If the truth is subjective how can they be right? Why do people feel the need to judge when we decide to follow your own truth? If we were to continue to follow what people tell us as truth will we miss out on the real purpose of why God put us here? Who is God? Do people really know who God really is? Or are we following someone else’s truth about God? How about we start all over? How about we wipe our minds clean away from other people’s thoughts and pretend that we are newborn’s to the world. Start asking yourself some questions and see what feels like your “Right Answer” to “You.” This is your key to your own happy life besides of what other people will think. Live Your Own Truth! Here is Mine!

A hot, funny brother's best friend rom com . . . with sugar on top! She's his best friend's little sister. He's known her all his life. He's practically part of the family. There is nothing either of them could do to surprise the other at this point. Then she showed up in his bedroom in lingerie and asked him to take her V-card. Okay, that was a surprise. Aiden is pretty sure Zoe was equally surprised when he told her no. To say that he didn't handle it well would be a massive understatement. Almost as massive as the amount of work he's going to have to do now to convince her that he wants her. Forever. Right after he tells her that he's bought the company that's her bakery's biggest competitor. Maybe if he tells her he's in love with her first, that will help sugarcoat the whole we're-rivals-in-business-now thing. So, first "I'm in love with you", then "take off your clothes", then "I'm now your business adversary". Sure. Piece of cake.

In the tradition of The Year of Magical Thinking comes a legendary editor’s unflinching love song about his radiant wife, Margaret, and her battle with cancer. It was a warm April in Pleasant Valley when Margaret Korda, normally a fearless horsewoman, dropped her horsewhip while she was riding. Such a mild slip was easy to ignore, but when other troubling symptoms accumulated, she confided to her husband, “Michael, I think something serious is wrong with me.” Within a few rapid weeks, the fiercely independent, former fashion model was diagnosed with brain cancer, while Michael, once reliant on her steeliness, became her caregiver, deciphering bewildering medical reports and packing her beloved toiletries for the hospital. An operation performed by a renowned surgeon allowed Margaret to ride her favorite competition horse Logan go Bragh a few more times, but Margaret’s tumors quickly returned—leaving her to grapple with the reality of impending death. In rapturous prose, Korda, a modern- day Orpheus, braids her heroic story with heartrending details of their final year together. Passing, a tender memoir, is a testament to the transcendent possibilities of love.
