A great many people already know Mr. Hagedorn through his verse. “Faces in the Dawn” will, however, be their introduction to him as a novelist. The same qualities that have served to raise his poetry above the common level help to distinguish this story of a German village. The theme of the book is the transformation that was wrought in the lives of an irritable, domineering German pastor and his wife through the influence of a young German girl and her American lover. Sentiment, humor, and a human feeling, all present in just the right measure, warm the heart and contribute to the enjoyment which the reader derives in following the experiences of the well-drawn characters.

By nature, children are full of happiness and enjoyment in life. They live what they see and believe. However, it is inevitable that children will feel afraid of something most of the time. Just like adults, children also struggle with some challenges that hinder them from making the most of their childhood. Children need to deal with a number of fears as they grow up. From entering a new school to taking a big shot to coping with a bully in school, they are facing intimidating situations from time to time. Unfortunately, there are many parents who don’t care about their children seriously even when they display their fears. This is an incorrect parenting method, which could make a child suffer from panic attacks and depression. If you love your kids, this is the last thing you do not want to happen to them, so make sure to give them the support they need whenever their fears take place. [more]

In every century for more than two thousand years, many men have owed their chief enjoyment of life to books. The bibliomaniac of today had his prototype in ancient Rome, where book collecting was fashionable as early as the first century of the Christian era. Four centuries earlier there was an active trade in books at Athens, then the center of the book production of the world. This center of literary activity shifted to Alexandria during the third century B. C. through the patronage of Ptolemy Soter, the founder of the Alexandrian Museum, and of his son, Ptolemy Philadelphus; and later to Rome, where it remained for many centuries, and where bibliophiles and bibliomaniacs were gradually evolved, and from whence in time other countries were invaded.

A picture is worth a thousand words. But, words can evoke vivid pictures in the mind. As a painter uses his colors to create images that touch the soul, the poet uses his words to achieve the same effect. The poems in this volume, it is my hope, will create images that touch the readers heart and soul. They are the product of the poet's observations of the world around him. Several of these images reflect his perception of the world as he is out and about, some are the images he perceives when awakening in the morning--that point when dream and reality seem to merge. The poet hopes that these images will provoke thought, and will bring the read some measure of enjoyment. [more]

That Homely Proverb, Used On So Many Occasions In England, Viz. "That What Is Bred In The Bone Will Not Go Out Of The Flesh," Was Never More Verified Than In The Story Of My Life. Any One Would Think That After Thirty-Five Years' Affliction, And A Variety Of Unhappy Circumstances, Which Few Men, If Any, Ever Went Through Before, And After Near Seven Years Of Peace And Enjoyment In The Fulness Of All Things; Grown Old, And When, If Ever, It Might Be Allowed Me To Have Had Experience Of Every State Of Middle Life, And To Know Which Was Most Adapted To Make A Man Completely Happy; I Say, After All This, Any One Would Have Thought That The Native Propensity To Rambling Which I Gave An Account Of In My First Setting Out In The World To Have Been So Predominant In My Thoughts, Should Be Worn Out, And I Might, At Sixty One Years Of Age, Have Been A Little Inclined To Stay At Home, And Have Done Venturing Life And Fortune Any More.

Christopher Stewart On the Meaning of Sin

Growing up is hard work. As we architect our lives, responding to the requirements of our path is demanding enough as it is without having to address additional annoyances that get in the way of our personal development. Still, what if all those irritations were actually the results of our own errors, and as such as many clues inviting us to reform and to regain the itinerary we have selected for ourselves ? On the Meaning of Sin proposes a different take on the mechanics of sin and rebirth in hell, coming from the perspective of an unorthodox trajectory in the worlds of arts, science, and Oriental philosophy. In this alternative view, the cosmos provides a course-correction mechanism wherein whenever we miss the mark, we are redirected towards the enjoyment of tranquil progress towards our goals. It supplies a metaphor facilitating the elimination of error, and thus benevolently assists and fosters the achievement of our objectives, allowing us to cultivate a gradually less corrupt mind that gives rise to increasingly satisfying hereafters, in an ever refining continuum. Any individual can attain liberation, or elimination of error, at any time, and so can society as a whole. Heaven truly exists, and it is constantly beckoning us towards it. [more]
