When the road signs take a vacation, chaos and hilarity ensue--and they quickly learn how important they are.

So they abandon their signpost and set off on an adventure, inviting along all the other underappreciated road signs they meet on the way. It's all fun and games for a while, especially when they stumble upon a fantastic amusement park. But the people they've left behind are feeling their absence, and soon there are traffic tangles and lost pedestrians everywhere. The signs are more important than they realized, and now it's time for them to save the day!

Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Carrie Cantwell grew up with an unstable father who suffered from manic depression. His emotional absence left her wounded and yearning for his affection. To make matters worse, she struggled with unexplainable mood swings of her own. As a child, she was hyperactive and attention-seeking. By her twenties she was engaging in reckless behavior to quiet her inner demons. When Carrie was 24, her father died by suicide, and she was hit with her first major depressive episode. When she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, her heart sank. It felt like a death sentence. At age 38 and in a failing, abusive marriage, she tried to end her own life. Once discharged from an inpatient institution, she promised herself she'd never go back. Carrie made the same mistake her father had, but she'd gotten a second chance at life. She vowed not to squander it. She began a long journey of recovery by finally coming to terms with her daddy issues and the severity of her own mental illness. Carrie exposes a runaway roller coaster of emotions through brutally honest, raw recounting of soaring highs and crushing lows. Through powerful scenes of self-destruction and recovery, she invites readers into her turbulent and fragile inner world. Daddy Issues: A Memoir is a story of forgiveness and absolution, about how mental illness tore apart a father and daughter but was ultimately the very thing that brought them together.

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
"Laura Lynne Jackson is a psychic medium and the author of the New York Times bestseller The Light Between Us. She possesses an incredible gift--the ability to communicate with loved ones who have passed, convey messages of love and healing, and impart a greater understanding of our interconnectedness. Though her abilities are exceptional, they are not unique, and that is the message at the core of this book. Understanding "the secret language of the universe" is a gift available to all. As we learn to ask for and recognize signs from the other side, we will start to find meaning where before there was only confusion, we will see light in the darkness. We may decide to change paths, push toward love, pursue joy, and engage with life in a whole new way. In Signs, Jackson is able to bring the mystical into the everyday. She relates stories of people who have experienced these uncanny revelations and instances of unexplained synchronicity, as well as those drawn from her own experience. There's the producer whose lost child appears to her as a deer that approaches her unhesitatingly at a highway rest stop; the name tag of an ER nurse that lets a terrified wife know that her husband will be okay; the Elvis Presley song that arrives at the exact time of her own father's passing; and many others. This is a book that is both inspiring and practical, deeply comforting and wonderfully motivational in asking us to see beyond ourselves to a more magnificent universal design"--

Missing the Links

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Imagine coming home, and finding your 17-month old son's body in your bed. Imagine discovering that your wife, or what was once your wife, had taken the life of your son. How would you react? What would you do? "Missing The Links" is a book written by Greg Burchett which vividly describes the tragic event that altered his life forever. Greg takes the reader on an intimate journey, describing what ultimately led up to this tragedy, how he dealt with the loss of his son, and how he began his recovery. Gluing together the shattered pieces of a life destroyed is often the most difficult thing anyone can experience in their lives. This book offers rare insight into how Greg attempted to be successful in dealing with this tragedy. He starkly discusses his failures, as well. It is vividly written, from his heart, and articulately edited through his mind. This book is different. It is written from a man's perspective. It is written from a husband's perspective. When discussing the murder of a child, very little is available from this perspective. Much has been written clinically, or even from the woman's point-of-view. But the insights of a loving father, a husband who felt a loss of "control" over his life, and on his ultimate strength rediscovered. Finding optimism in the center of turmoil... Admitting you need help... Realizing that there were many "warning signs" or "missing links" which, if recognized, could have avoided such a tragedy. These are the central themes of this book. Themes, that anyone, anywhere, can relate to.
