These lessons, these proverbs are the product of nearly four decades of experiences as an adult. Many of these have been forged in the crucible of life. Having a father that's a Sicilian-American, U.S. Marine, and a Catholic gave me a phenomenal foundation of wisdom. This wisdom was honed, put through the furnace, and forged under great pressure, during a 21+ years career in Special Operations. I have continued on a path toward better wisdom, through trial and error, introspection, and validation in my civilian career, now close to 20 years and counting. With my 17 books (counting this one) I have adjusted, added new ones, deleted ones that no longer apply, and perfected many of these. These lessons, these proverbs, are a peak behind the curtain. The title, The Red Pill on Wisdom, is a metaphor for the choice between the brutal truths, autonomy, and understanding of reality. We may not like it, we may love it, we may not agree with it, or we may embrace it. That's the point.
Merna the Mermaid lives in a small town in Maine; but is keeping a secret so those who are truly close to her know that she's a mermaid and she lives with her husband and daughter.
This book is the story of my life, a lady who grew up on a small farm in the Deep South, and how I was able to reach the top of my career field, serving as a two-star general at the Pentagon. Women have served, both in and out of uniform, in defense of this country since the beginning of our nation. Serving the United States Air Force in uniform was my career choice. This book is an outgrowth of the review of publicity surrounding my military career, both active and reserves, and follow-on civilian career, and of the inventory of the more than 100 speeches I gave when I reached the top of my career field. Audiences in the 1980s and 90s were surprised to learn of the original roadblocks, both laws and policies, which precluded me, a woman, from setting goals at the beginning of my military journey in 1960 to reach the level to which I finally achieved during my career in uniform. All I had when in uniform were male mentors, because there were no females to which I could look for guidance and success stories. Indeed, my accomplishments led to the glass ceiling being opened wide for the other ladies who came after me and were recognized for their ability and talents to serve and excel at higher levels of leadership.Friends who know of my accomplishments implored me to put pen to paper to show how I, as a young girl could -with hard work, tenacity, stick-to-it-iveness and using lessons learned in early years -propel myself to the forefront, leading to success. Come with me as I take you back to the beginning, to my first role models: my mother and father who set examples for me and taught me lessons that would propel me even further than a little 1940's farm girl from Oakman, Alabama could have imagined. I hope you'll be inspired to see where my dreams took me, finding love, heartbreak, adventure and prestige along the way.

I must admit it has been an exciting, history-filled life. From the Great Depression of the 1930's, WW II, my combat service in the Korean War, Vietnam, the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, the amazing technological breakthroughs, McCarthy times, the Kennedys, Nixon, the Clintons, the Bushes, 9/11, the turmoil with Russia and the Ukraine, the pandemic, the travails of Donald Trump and "January 6" have all contributed to the drama of living. Some of the most rewarding events of those years was watching grandson, Adam Cook, the subject of this book, grow into a man determined to be of value to the community. This book depicts one day of his boyhood.
Everyday couples come together, have fun, make commitments, clash, and fall apart. They often spend time breaking up to make up through rekindled moments of mesmerizing, even hypnotic passions: A wonderful quick fix journey full of immediate gratifications. Love, although an earthquake of mixed emotions full of impulsive and compulsive reactions, is still something to brave. Yet fear of consequence often keeps love in some state of reserve. Nonetheless, I've given myself to the quest, at least in words, to capture peak moments where I've climbed loves heights of possibilities, its depths of disappointments, and come to conclude: Love does not start and end on a dime. It transcends! Thus, Heart Drops is a poetic bouquet full of roses and hidden thorns. It's intended to be a suspenseful path for couples to explore and compare their own experiences with sparks of both excitement and contemplation. For those truly seeking, love tends to be a transitioning force of memories, hopes and dreams to both treasure and dread. For those who don't dare fully embrace the tides of adventure and chance, love becomes an endless unmet longing somewhere in the soul. For both, Love is an inescapable force to recon with. May these poems help you find thoughtful words to share with your own loved one! Remember! Love reasons what heart and mind cannot.

Jay Mwamba's "Crash of the Buffalo" is a compelling account of the 1993 plane crash that wiped out Zambia's national soccer team, and the inspiring story of the nation's remarkable comeback. The book details the tragedy, its aftermath, and the incredible resilience and determination of a nation to rebuild and honor the memories of its fallen heroes.Zambia was on the cusp of qualifying for the 1994 World Cup in the U.S. when the DHC-5D Buffalo military transport carrying the team crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, killing all 30 people on board. The nation was devastated, but the government announced that the team would continue with its quest to qualify for both the World Cup and the African Cup of Nations.A new squad was built around star player Kalusha Bwalya, who'd escaped the crash. The squad underwent an intensive six-week training program in Denmark under a young coach named Roald Poulsen. Rebuilt Zambia went on to defeat Morocco in its first game 10 weeks after the crash. And 11 months later, they stormed into the final of the 1994 African Cup of Nations.

Keys to the Kingdom II reveals the hidden prophecies in the Bible by reimagining the scriptures. Keys II challenges the traditional view or interpretation of both Genesis and Revelation, by engaging ancient astrology and the Bible Numeric. What emerges is a new truth in which Adam is not the first man God created. This assertion only confirms the overwhelming evidence of the earliest humanoids existence on Earth, as there is a long fossil record which predates Adam by a million years or more. Evolutionist vs. Creationist argument has raged for over a hundred years, with either side satisfied with the others explanation. There is nothing wrong with the Bible, what is problematic is man's interpretation of the text, which early church fathers and theologians never consider Earth's long anthropological, archeological, and astrological past.By revealing the ancient astrology, which is hidden in plain sight, Revelation's apocalyptic code is finally cracked. What is revealed is seventy to eighty percent of the Book of Revelation has already happened. Biblical prophecy is real and trustworthy, as this terminal generation will continue to experience a number of unprecedented hardships and disasters, as the fulfillment of End of Days prophecies are now upon the world.
This book is about a cheating boyfriend that leads to the main character's devastation and restoration.
Poetry is a tool. It is a voice to be heard. There are formal poems of all styles, and they are part of a history of poetry. There is no protocol or "right way" to express poems. The door is open. Words need people. People need words. Poems become songs, slogans, works of art, and prayers. My poems come from the heart without much ado. I seldom edit or stress over them. They are spontaneous and written in the early morning when I relax, write and ponder life. They are an impression of feelings on many subjects spurred by my personal love of a world free from societal expectations, war, pain and suffering. These poems cover nature, love, family, introspection, protest, common journeys of all peoples and the possibility of peace and rebirth on this planet and beyond.I am particularly interested in working with young people who begin the creative world of marks on paper, scribblings, drawings and writings at a very young age. They are a voice to be heard. Storytelling and rhymes are symbolic language from early times passed by word of mouth through elders and succeeding generations. I have connected with small groups of poets in coffee shops, on the street corners, in fairs, in family gatherings, weddings, passings, all speaking poetry as they experience it. They are my second community, my poet friends whom I join in person or online. These poems are written between 2014 and 2023. They belong to a trilogy of poetry books entitled: Spectrum, A Poetry Memoir; Spectrum II, A Poetry R-evolution; and this book, Poetry III, A Poetry Journal.For more information about my poetry and art, see http://www.facebook.com/SpectrumPoetryMemoirArt.

THIS UNIQUE WRITING ADDRESSES THE PANDEMIC IN SYMBOLIC AND METAPHORIC INCLINE WHILE AT THE SAME TIME INDUCING STRONGER ENDORPHIN ACTIVITY AS THE READERS WILL RECOGNIZE THE DUTY TO STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS PROTECT OUR CHILDREN FROM "ABNORMAL WAYS OF THINKING AND ACTING". SUCH HAS CAUSED YOUNG GIRLS TO COMMIT SUICIDE. IN NEW JERSEY JUST FOUR MONTHS AGO, PRIME TIME LIVE DID THE STORY OF TWO WHITE BOYS IN HIGH SCHOOL SHOWN ON A PODCAST WHILE THE FACULTY WATCHED AND DID NOTHING TO PROTECT THE CHILD WHO SUFFERED MULTIPLE BROKEN TEETH, BECAUSE SHE CHOOSES TO BE GENDER NEUTRAL. THEN ONE OF HER CLASSMATES STATES ON LIVE INTERVIEW "THE BOYS TELL US WE ARE NO LONGER NEEDED IN THE EARTH..." SO, I DECIDED TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM THROUGH POETRY IN A ARTFUL WAY PROVIDING THE NECESSARY LINK TO RATIONALIZE OUR NATURAL MAKE-UP AS HUMAN BEINGS, IN ALL THE RHYTHMIC MOVES BEING CHANNELED TO THIS GENRE. PEOPLE OF ALL WALKS OF LIFE CAN FEEL THE MESSAGES BEING CONVEYED BEAUTIFUL, PEACEFUL, AND CARESSING OUR INSIGHTS TO SOMEHOW BE APART OF A BRAND NEW START, "IT'S A LOVE TO CAPTIVATE WITH PLEASANT ENTREATS TO REVEAL A TANDEM OF INTEREST SUPERB IN THE LITERARY DAZZLE." ALSO, THE CHRONICLES OF EMANUEL IS BACKED BY THE ACTIONS OF THE PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT (JOE BIDEN AND KAMALA HARRIS) FIGHTING TO OVERTURN THE NEW DECISION OF ROE V. WADE IN THE SUPREME COURT, HOW DO WE AS A SOCIETY FORGET THAT WITHOUT OUR WOMEN WE ARE BASICALLY "NOTHING?" WHO ARE PEOPLE TO DECIDE FOR OUR WOMEN WHAT CHOICE THEY CANNOT MAKE BUT ALLOW A LGBTQ TO HAVE A CHOICE? PLEASE WAKE UP OUR NATURAL PASSIONS AS A COMPASSIONATE HUMANITY AND NOT A RACE SOCIETY WHICH LIKES TO BE PREJUDICED IN ITS VIEWS INSTEAD OF PROGRESSING AS THE LAW HAS INSTRUCTED US FOR 100'S OF YEARS!!! IN CLOSING, WERE WE NOT ALL BORN HUMAN? SO IT IS HIGH TIME WE COALESCE OUR UNDERSTANDINGS AND DO NOT PRETEND WE ARE GOING BACKWARD TO ARREST SOCIETY FROM ITS GROWTH AND CONTINUED POTENTIAL FOR BETTER IDEAS, HUMAN RELATIONS WITHOUT STIGMATA AND SELF-HATE, AND THE FACT THAT WE WOULD NOT BE WHERE WE ARE TODAY WERE IT NOT FOR "CHANGES FOR THE BETTER NOT FOR THE WORSE!" EXAMPLE: THE FIRST OF MANY FIRST LADIES OF THE WHITEHOUSE MICHELLE OBAMA CREATED THE MOST THRIVING PUBLIC SCHOOL CURRICULUM IN THIS NATIONS HISTORY, WHO ARE LGBTQ TO THINK YOU COULD FORCE ABNORMAL TEACHING TO DESTROY WHAT MICHELLE SACRIFICED TO DO FOR EIGHT LONG STRUGGLING YEARS? THAT IS THE MOST DISGRACEFUL ACTS ON OUR CHILDREN AND TO HAVE MOURNED OVER!!! NO ONE IS TO BE ALLOWED TO DISRUPT OUR TEACHING WHICH WAS ALREADY AFFLUENT ENOUGH TO PROGRESS OUR CHILDREN. DID THE CATHOLIC CHURCH ACCEPT THOSE BOOKS? DID ANY OTHER PRIVATE SCHOOLS HAVE IT FORCED ON THEIR CURRICULUM? THE PUBLIC DOMAIN OF SOCIETY IS WHERE OUR GEMS COME FROM THAT PEOPLE RECOGNIZE FALL THROUGH THE CRACKS OF THE MAINSTREAM OF POLITICAL AGENDAS. WE MUST STAND NOW OR DIVIDED WE FALL NONE OF US CAN SURVIVE "ABNORMALITY" WITHOUT MAJORS SORROWS AND DEEP SOULFUL INJURY. BLESS MY SOUL DOMINO, MEANING, WHEN THE LINE OF DOMINO'S ARE CAST THEY ALL FALL ONTO EACH OTHER YET WHILE DOING SO A PICTURE IS SEEN AS A COHESIVE UNIT OF DEVELOPMENT TO ENSURE A SPECIFIC TASK IS COMPLETED IN "ORDER NOT DISORDER!" NOW, LET THE CHILDREN FLOW.WE HAVE IN EACH STATE GOVERNORS AND ATTORNEY GENERALS ELECTED TO PROTECT OUR LAWS AND TO CREATE NEW LAWS, WHICH ENHANCE THEIR ABILITIES TO ENSURE THE CITIZENS ARE BEING PROTECTED AND PROVIDED THE BEST EDUCATIONS, CAREER GOALS, AND SAFE COMMUNITIES WHERE THEY THRIVE , GROW, LEARN NEW AND BETTER WAYS TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS, BUT, MOST IMPORTANTLY "PROTECT OUR HUMAN AND CIVIL RIGHTS!". WES MOORE, GOV. AND ANTHONY BROWN, ATTORNEY. GEN. OF MARYLAND ARE TWO OF THE STRONGEST PILLARS OF JUSTICE THIS NATION HAS HAD IN DECADES AND I WANT TO THANK THEM FOR AT LEAST HEARING OUR GRIEVOUS CONCERNS AND THEN TAKING THE NEEDED ACTIONS TO PROCURE THE RIGHT REMEDIES OF JUSTICE FOR ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS. I PERSONALLY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE READERS THIS INCLUSIVE INSIGHT WITHOUT ANTHON
