Years later, Sydney wonders if she has fulfilled her promise and questions the reason why the pathways of her life have made it so difficult. Fortunately, life can often provide an unexpected juncture. For Sydney, this occurs while on the highway to be with her critically-ill mother.

Apotheosis Now
Resolve all your confusion in life!
A mind that is fragmented and sees the world in terms of what is me and not me, good and bad, will be caught in endless conflict. Because externally, we are always trying to control what is “not me,” and internally, we always get perplexed trying to decide whether we should act from our “higher” or “lower” self. As Albert Einstein said: “We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.”
This book will help you to understand:
– Why we have internal conflicts
– How does our ego trap us in undesirable circumstances
– How do our beliefs limit us
– Why thought-based teachings (Law of Attraction), or self-improvement advice don’t work
– How do we really get what we want
– Why is happiness so rare for us
– Who we are really
– What is the nature of existence
– What is the meaning of life
– How do we know if there is a God
– What is the process of spiritual enlightenment
Many of us are starting to become tired of this game of life. We have been comparing and striving all our life. But no matter how much success we have achieved—we are still hollow and still have found nothing fulfilling. We don’t even know if happiness exists because it is no longer a living thing in our experience—it has become dead, as we only know it as a concept or memory.
We have sought self-help advice, philosophies, and religious teachings to transform ourselves but have not gotten anywhere. We have made some superficial improvements—like adopting a new mindset—but our core remains the same. We are still competitive, still fearful, and we get disturbed all the time.
The problem with all attempts at self-improvement is that we do not address the fundamental problem, which is: who is the “you” who needs to be improved? We do not see that the one who is making the improvement is the same one who needs to be improved. The more we try to improve, the more conflict we introduce, within and without. The more knowledge we stuff in our heads, the more we become trapped in a conceptual prison of reality. Inevitably, the more confused we get in life.
The book guides the reader out of their distorted beliefs to experience reality beyond the mind. When the deeper intelligence is allowed to flourish without our mind’s interference, then the game of life becomes effortless. $2.99 on Kindle.

Great Quotes For Gardeners
In “Great Quotes For Gardeners,” you’ll find hundreds of quotations aimed at inspiring those who enjoy and love gardens — and that’s just about everyone.
“Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint, and the soil and sky as canvas.” — Elizabeth Murray
The gardener is always learning, often pausing to contemplate life, growth, and change. For everyone who spends time in a garden, as Jane Hawking says, it’s an enduring and rewarding pastime. It’s an art that involves experimenting with and sharing creativity, colors, and produce — a process which sustains givers and receivers alike.
To be a gardener, according to Vita Sackwell-West, is to live in hope. From the dazzling return of perennials in spring to the excitement of looking at glossy seed catalogs and gardening websites in mid-winter, that hope is a year-round exercise.
“To dwell is to garden,” wrote Michael Heidegger. For so many of us, life just wouldn’t be the same without getting a little dirty from time to time. Getting our hands into the good earth and encouraging something to grow and blossom — that adds flavor and fragrance to a home regardless of its size or location.
The quotes in this book come from novelists and poets, philosophers and statespeople, artists and entertainers. Most important, the quotes come from gardeners — all of them providing charming and thoughtful passages and inspiration for generations of growth and growers, and in that sense they’re all gardeners. $2.99 on Kindle.
