Great for parents who’ve processes their sadness, sorrow and anger

This book is just right for the parent who has worked through the terrible grief that comes from estrangement and is ready to make meaning out of their loss, or is already on the path of making meaning. If your child has newly estranged from you- meaning in the last year or so- wait to read this book and find other resources to help you fully grieve your sorrow and all the other hard feelings as this book won’t help you yet. If it’s been a year or so and you’ve done therapy or other work to grieve, this book can be very helpful for getting perspective and turning your loss into something meaningful.

Well done

A good introduction for the inexperienced and curious I wanted to learn about the New Testament and felt I did with this course. The prof cools benefit from some voice lessons but couldn’t we all or at least most.

The one thing that could be expected to disturb the peace of life at Blandings is the incursion of imposters. Blandings has imposters like other houses have mice. On this occasion there are two of them--both intent on a dangerous enterprise.

Story
A Paradise Built in Hell is an investigation of the moments of altruism, resourcefulness, and generosity that arise amid disaster's grief and disruption and considers their implications for everyday life. It points to a new vision of what society could become - one that is less authoritarian and fearful, more collaborative and local.

The first chapter is the gem. The takeaways about the role of beliefs, community and action are not only important but necessary in the Covid-19 reality.
