Deeper Than The Ocean

Deeper than the ocean is a book of poetry diving into all the emotions of grief, love, and heart break. The book is divided into two chapters, before the death of a loved one and the life changing moments after. Emma tells her story beautifully, a story I believe a lot of people could relate to. And I believe reading something so relatable has a true healing essence to it.

This is a simple story about being yourself even when others judge and tease you. It is based on the life experiences of Gustav Elijah Ahr, who took dance lessons when he was little and who always expressed himself in his own way, fearlessly. It is written by his mother, and illustrated by his soulmate, Emma Rose Harris.

Our species is more profoundly connected to the sea than we ever realized, as an intrepid cadre of scientists, athletes, and explorers is now discovering. Deep follows these adventurers into the ocean to report on the latest findings about its wondrous biology -- and unimagined human abilities.

Abyat-e-Bahoo (Sultan Bahoo's Sufi Poems) is considered a master piece amongst the seekers of Sufi teachings, written originally in Saraiki (dialect of Punjabi) and now exquisitely translated into English by Dr. Z. A. Awan. The reality of soul and spirit is described in most eloquent manner for the people seeking Sufi path and spiritual satisfaction of the inner most. There are sections in the book which describe key concepts of spiritualism which will also elucidate Wahdaniyat (Oneness), Risalat (the messenger's following is obedience to Allah), and other perquisites for awakening your soul-sprit to be His best friend i.e. Faqr-Faqeer (code of contentment by a contended person): Dhikr-Fikr (Remembrance, Contemplation, Love of Allah), Murshid-Mureed , Language-literature. These concepts will certainly facilitate the respected readers in understanding these deliberations. This is important for a reader to be fully familiar with terminology and concepts of Abyat . The reason for this renewed format about Sultan Bahoo's valuable contribution (Abyat) is to develop an invigorating interest for international academia.

Her best friend just inherited ocean-front property in California, and Petie is suddenly Emma-less for the first time in fifty years. So when Emma invites her to help on the big cross-country move, Petie thinks that's a great idea. But from the first day, things aren't what she's expecting. It's bad enough that Emma, after just two weeks in California, seems changed almost beyond recognition: vibrant and glowing, younger somehow, full of secrets and mysteries.

There's only one thing she knows for sure: her life will never be the same. Even if she can stay out of the water . . . . The eagerly anticipated companion to Left Turn at Cloud 9 brings Petie and Emma back for more mystery and mischief!

A human and global take on a beloved vacation spot. The crash of surf, smell of salted air, wet whorls of sand underfoot. These are the sensations of the beach, that environment that has drawn humans to its life-sustaining shores for millennia. And while the gull's cry and the cove's splendor have remained constant throughout time, our relationship with the beach has been as fluid as the runnels left behind by the tide's turning. The Lure of the Beach is a chronicle of humanity's history with the coast, taking us from the seaside pleasure palaces of Roman elites and the aquatic rituals of medieval pilgrims, to the venues of modern resort towns and beyond. Robert C. Ritchie traces the contours of the material and social economies of the beach throughout time, covering changes in the social status of beach goers, the technology of transport, and the development of fashion (from nudity to Victorianism and back again), as well as the geographic spread of modern beach-going from England to France, across the Mediterranean, and from nineteenth-century America to the world. And as climate change and rising sea levels erode the familiar faces of our coasts, we are poised for a contemporary reckoning with our relationship--and responsibilities--to our beaches and their ecosystems. The Lure of the Beach demonstrates that whether as a commodified pastoral destination, a site of ecological resplendency, or a flashpoint between private ownership and public access, the history of the beach is a human one that deserves to be told now more than ever before.
