Book Description
Mia risked everything to walk away from a gilded cage in Sector Two, but grasping at freedom was only her first trial. With no protection in the sectors, every day is a struggle to stay alive. Her best hope now is a job working for the most dangerous gang in Sector Four--the O’Kanes. When a motorcycle accident leaves Derek Ford riding a desk at the O'Kane compound, the last thing he needs is a sexy new assistant upending his office and his life. Especially someone like Mia, who greets his growls and commands with smiles and a fierce independence. The friction between them generates an undeniable heat, and Mia's stubborn refusal to let life beat her down stirs Ford's darkest protective instincts. He has the power to take care of her, protect her not only from discomfort but from threats of her past...but first he'd have to claim her. And Mia will never be kept again.

Book Description
In a not-too-distant future where technology has advanced at an exponential rate, the bustling cityscape is a symphony of lights and sounds. Skyscrapers rise like towering beacons of progress, and the faces of pedestrians are illuminated by the brightness of handheld devices and augmented reality glasses. In this world, connectedness has become an essential component of daily life, with life seemingly moving at the speed of light. Amid this beautiful urban tapestry stands James Mercer, a man wrapped in the shadows of his own seclusion. His apartment, located in the heart of the city, exudes an air of calm and disconnection. The bright glow of the outside world is subdued by heavy drapes, casting a somber light over his living space. Faded photographs of a younger, happier James surrounded by friends adorn the walls, relics of a past filled with genuine connections and dreams. Once a dreamer with aspirations of greatness, James has been worn down by life's unpredictable twists and turns. Setbacks and missed opportunities have eroded his confidence, leaving him in a monotonous routine that has replaced the vividness of his dreams. As the world around him becomes increasingly interconnected, James feels his own connections fading. Friends have scattered, and the promises of the internet often leave him feeling more isolated, replacing genuine interactions with virtual ones. James finds refuge in the gentle glow of his computer screen, navigating the digital landscape with the flicker of hope for something more profound. His job, once a stepping stone to his dreams, has become a dull routine, with colleagues remaining distant figures in the periphery of his existence. Despite the loneliness that clings to him, James yearns for genuine connections and conversations that warm his heart. As the city pulses with activity beyond his window, James feels like a relic, out of touch with the times. The constant stream of messages and notifications only amplifies his loneliness, highlighting the gap between digital personas and deeper human emotions. Standing at a crossroads between technological advancement and his own desires, James embarks on a journey that will transform his view of creation, ethics, and the complex dance between humanity and technology. "A Journey Beyond Solitude" is a poignant exploration of isolation in the digital age and the search for meaningful connections. It is a tale of rediscovery, resilience, and the enduring power of human connection in a world dominated by technology. Follow James Mercer as he navigates this intricate landscape, forging a bond that transcends the limits of code and consciousness, reigniting a spark of hope and purpose in his soul.
Author: Robert Kull Publisher: New World Library ISBN: 1577317726 Category : Nature Languages : en Pages : 388
Book Description
Years after losing his lower right leg in a motorcycle crash, Robert Kull traveled to a remote island in Patagonia's coastal wilderness with equipment and supplies to live alone for a year. He sought to explore the effects of deep solitude on the body and mind and to find the spiritual answers he'd been seeking all his life. With only a cat and his thoughts as companions, he wrestled with inner storms while the wild forces of nature raged around him. The physical challenges were immense, but the struggles of mind and spirit pushed him even further. Solitude: Seeking Wisdom in Extremes is the diary of Kull's tumultuous year. Chronicling a life distilled to its essence, Solitude is also a philosophical meditation on the tensions between nature and technology, isolation and society. With humor and brutal honesty, Kull explores the pain and longing we typically avoid in our frantically busy lives as well as the peace and wonder that arise once we strip away our distractions. He describes the enormous Patagonia wilderness with poetic attention, transporting the reader directly into both his inner and outer experiences.

Book Description
Much of our faith and practice is about words—preaching, teaching, talking with others. Yet all of these words are not enough to take us into the real presence of God. This book is an invitation to meet God deeply and fully through solitude and silence. This expanded edition includes a guide for groups to use for both discussion and practice.
Author: Philip Koch Publisher: Open Court ISBN: 0812699467 Category : Philosophy Languages : en Pages : 392
Book Description
In Koch's Solitude, both solitude and engagement emerge as primary modes of human experience, equally essential for human completion. This work draws upon the vast corpus of literary reflections on solitude, especially Lao Tze, Sappho, Plotinus, Augustine, Petrarch, Montaigne, Goethe, Shelley, Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman and Proust. "Koch uses the work of philosophers, historians, and writers, as well as texts such as the Bible, to show what solitude is and isn't, and what being alone can do to and for the individual. Interesting for its literary scope and its conclusions about all the good true solitude can bring us." —Booklist "Reading this book is like dipping into many minds, fierce and gentle. The author reveals his long study of great philosophers, and interprets their thoughts through the lens of his own experience with solitude. He traces our early brushes with solitude and the fear it can engender, then the craving for solitude that comes with full, adult lives." —NAPRA Review

Book Description
Referencing cultural touchstones such as Into The Wild, the art of Edward Hopper, and the work of Charlie Chaplin, Sarvananda considers what we think about being alone. Buddhism suggests that solitude can bring about positive emotion and change. Exploring this idea through personal experience, psychology and myth the author shows how facing our essential aloneness can lead us to better understand our essential relatedness.
