Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Childhood is the very foundation of adulthood. The ideals and expressions of life we hold in our adulthood have their origins and rudiments in the ideals and expressions of life we encounter and gather and live out in our youth. Be they feelings of worth or worthlessness, the vigor and hope of making something of ourselves, or an acquiescence to the belief that things of consequence are beyond our reach, or the lens of optimism or of doubt with which we view our own existence, all have their budding and beginnings in the experiences, or lack of experiences, of our childhood. And growing up in the 1950s and 1960s was at a very unique convergence of circumstances of combined societal, economical, political, spiritual, and cultural seismic shifting perhaps unlike any other era.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The question, 'What is the good life has been the subject of many philosophical discussions and writings over the centuries. Millions of ordinary people have considered it as they started out on the road of life. The author reviews some of the thoughts by Greek philosophers, but concentrates on the Apostle Peter's statement in I Peter 3:10-12. The tongue is a powerful instrument for good or evil. God gave us the power to make choices about the decisions life calls on us to make, but these choices have consequences. Many evil roads open up for us, and we must choose to turn away from them, and choose to do good.Our happiness in life largely depends on our being at peace with God, ourselves and others. This requires real commitment on our part. Christ promised to give his disciples a special kind of peace, not as the world gives. Paul spoke of it as 'the peace of God which surpasses all understanding' Philippians 4:7. This peace comes from such things as: remembering God loves us; keeping our conscience clear; learning the secret of contentment; being satisfied with who we are; keeping contact with the Heavenly Father in prayer.God promises, 'The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry.' Psalm 34:15The author concludes with some things his ninety three years have taught him. Life will sometimes be hard. God's law of sewing and reaping is unalterable. Need for people in his life. All need meaningful work. Our self-respect affects how others regard us. We all have a need for something to look forward to. God can be trusted. We don't know what tomorrow may bring.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Casey Hoghupper, a six-year veteran police officer working LAPD's Seventy-Seventh Division has a secret. She has a guardian angel that no one else can see or hear but her. The problem is the other officers in her division only see her 'talking out loud' when no one else is present. Question: Is the stress of the job causing her to lose her mind The captain of her division, along with city psychologist Althea Bianchi are tasked with finding out if she is still fit to 'protect and to serve' the citizens of Los Angeles.

The two would go head-to-head during their office visit, and later after spending only one night as an observer during Hoghupper's Watch-3 shift. Dr. Bianchi becomes even more convinced that she should be relieved of her police powers and retired to civilian life. Aside from several appearances by her guardian angel, Casey's demeanor as a police officer has always been completely above board, professional, and by the book.

But now, working Hollywood Division, it was time to 'send in the clowns.' After another visit from her guardian angel, Casey Hoghupper thwarts the mass murder of over twenty people who were staying at the Hollywood Gay Dream Motel on a chilly Christmas Eve.
