This is a brief history of my life, woven around Christmas, and our family’s love of partying, decking the halls, and feasting. Although in recent years the idea of Christmas has become associated with largess, I have always loved the lead-up to the event: the aromas and the feeling of expectation that the season brings. The fairy lights, music, and joy combine to make this season like no other. Any excuse for a party!

The reconstruction and comparison of the model’s forms in the portrait and face image, in connection with new discoveries in science and archaeology, has aroused some interest in the funeral cult and its supernatural techniques.

"Ambulansen tvärnitar, precis som mitt liv. Och tiden niger till i några frusna ögonblick som stannar alltet, och med ögonen fortfarande slutna inser jag att mitt liv, som jag kände det, aldrig skulle bli sig likt igen. Så, tystnad. Ligg blickstilla. Inte röra sig. Och morsans jävla kungsord 'Man ska vara hel och ren inunder, för man vet aldrig var man hamnar.' Han tänker på nybytta kallingar." Det är brustet hjärta, menar författaren när han sätter diagnos på sig själv.

Henry Ward Beecher (June 24, 1813 - March 8, 1887) was a Congregationalist clergyman, social reformer and speaker, known for his support of the abolition of slavery and his emphasis on God's love. In one of a series of lectures to honor his father, Lyman Beecher, he waxes rhapsodic about the pipe organ: “I look upon the history and development of the organ for Christian use as a sublime instance of the guiding hand of God’s providence”. Beecher describes the sound of the organ as a flood that brings power to the people, encircles and fills them and helps them to sing.

This book will show you the power of surrender through the present moment. This book is not adding knowledge to your mind, is it to show you the way to freedom beyond your thinking mind. Like any spiritual teacher, I have nothing to teach you in the traditional sense. When I say the human mind, I am referring to the ego. You must understand the mind and it’s habitual patterns first, and how it works before you can go beyond it; and you will learn that by listening to this book.

Further Collected Poems contains selected lyrics from 2001 to 2017, divided roughly by theme or subject. The poems are in and out of form, in many modes and voices, simple and complex, hopeful and tragic. The common thread is a conviction that there is an order and a goodness behind and beyond all absurdity, if we will seek it and be open to it. Much thinking is involved. It is the thinking of the heart, and nature and the physical world, as well as music and tradition, can be helpful in following the path.

Den globala ekonomin har länge byggt på obegränsade resurser och ständig tillväxt. Nu vet vi att vårt sätt att leva är ohållbart och allt fler ser över sina konsumtionsvanor. Vi pantar burkar, sopsorterar och köper ekologiskt. Men faktum är att ett hållbart sparande kan göra mer för klimatet och för ett hållbart samhälle. Dessutom är det lönsamt då bolag som satsar på hållbarhet nu går om sina konkurrenter och får bättre avkastning.
