Ever.＜/strong＞＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞From a very young age, I saw firsthand how a relationship could change a woman and make her lose herself. I vowed never to let it happen to me.

No sex allowed. One specificallyーBlaze Baron, international heartthrob and massive movie star who recently moved to town and seems to have set his sights on me.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I’m way too old for a dare.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Bon's Year On My Spiritual Journey Through Panic and Anxiety【電子書籍】[ Bonnie Grzesh Pedota ]

＜p＞The only time I've ever thought I was really going to die was during my first panic attack. I was on vacation in Paris and suddenly felt like I couldn't breathe. As I hyperventilated, my arms, legs and torso went tingly. I was rushed to the emergency room, shaken, but alive.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Panic disorder left me debilitated for two months after my first attack. I struggled with shortness of breath, fatigue, and heart palpitations. I was forced to defer going to teachers' college for a year because I didn't feel physically able to go.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For a while, I focused on all the things panic disorder was taking away from me. Then I got wise.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I realized that my illness was call to become a better person. I took panic disorder as an opportunity to grow. The "year off" from school became my "year on." I majored in me. I journaled, went for therapy, and asked myself important questions. What do I enjoy? Who am I? Where do I want to be? How can I be an active creator of my life, rather than just falling into it?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Today, panic disorder has taken a back seat. A loving and supportive partner, journal writing and cognitive behavioural therapy were the major players in my recovery. Complementary medicine also played a supporting role. But mostly it was me. I decided I deserved to really live, and that I was being called to do so.＜/p＞ ＜p＞They say that we are only dealt a hand that we can play. If you are suffering with anxiety or panic, be brave and ask yourself some important questions: Am I really happy? What do I love? What have I always wanted to do? Where can I get help? How can I start healing today?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】His Fortunate Grace【電子書籍】[ Gertrude Franklin Horn Atherton ]

＜p＞“Are you quite sure?” Mr. Forbes laid down his newspaper, and looked with slightly extended mouth at his daughter who leaned forward in an attitude of suppressed energy, her hands clasped on the edge of the breakfast-table. The heiress of many millions was not handsome: her features were large and her complexion dull; but she had the carriage and ‘air’ of the New York girl of fashion, and wore a French morning-toilette which would have ameliorated a Gorgon. “Quite sure, papa.” “I suppose you have studied the question exhaustively.” “Oh, yes, indeed. I have read Karl Marx and Henry George and a lot of others. I suppose you have not forgotten that I belong to a club of girls who aspire to be something more than fashionable butterflies, and that we read together?” “And you are also positive that you wish me to divide my fortune with my fellow-men, and deprive you of the pleasant position of heiress?” “Perfectly positive,” firmly. “It is terrible, terrible to think of the starving thousands. I feel it my duty to tell you, papa, that if you do not do this yourself, I shallーwhenーwhenーbut I cannot even think of that.” “No; don’t worry about it. I’m good for twenty or thirty years yetーー” “You are the handsomest and most distinguished-looking man in New York.” “Thanks. To proceed: I should say that you are likely to be several things meanwhile. I don’t know that I shall even take the trouble to alter my will. Still, I mayーthat is unless you convert me. And you are also convinced that women should have the vote?” “Yes! Yes! indeed I am. I know all the arguments for and against. I’ve heard and read everything. You see, if we get the vote we can bring Socialism about quite easily.” “Without the slightest difficulty, I should say, considering the homogeneity of the feminine mind.” “You darling sarcastic thing. But can’t you see what weight such women as we are interesting in the cause must have? We have carefully excluded the nouveau riche; only the very oldest and most notable names will be on our petition when we get it up.” “Oh, you are going to get up a petition? Well, let that pass for the present. Suppose you fall in love and want to marry?” “I shall tell him everything. What I intend to make of my lifeーdo with what wealth I have at my disposal. If he does not sympathize with me and agree to my plans, he must go. A woman’s chief end is not matrimony.” “I need not ask if you have ever been in love?” “Oh, of course, I want to be, dreadfully. All women doーeven we advanced womenーnow, papa! I don’t love you quite so well when you smile like that. I am twenty-one, and that is quite old for a girl who has been highly educated, has travelled, and been out two years. I have a right to call myself advanced, because I have gone deliberately into the race, and have read up a great deal, even if I have as yet accomplished nothing. Exactly how much are you worth, papa?” “Broadly speaking, about thirty millions. As a great deal of that is in railroad and other stock, I am liable to be worth much less any day; much is also in land, which is worth only what it will bring. Still, I should say that I am reasonably sure of a fair amount.” “It is terrible, papa! All that land! Do give some of it at least to the poor dear peopleーI assure you we feel that we have taken them under our wing, and have grown quite sentimental over them. Mr. George would tell you what to do, at once. That man’s very baggy knees fascinate me: he is so magnificently in earnest. When he scolded us all for being rich, the other day at the meeting, I loved him.” “It is a great relief to me that George is a married man. Well, my dear, your allowance is ten thousand dollars a year. Do what you please with it, and come to me if your fads and whims demand more. God forbid that I should stand in the way of any woman’s happiness. By the by, what does your mother think of this business?”＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】My Secret Service: Vienna, Sophia, Constantinople, Nish, Belgrade, Asia Minor【電子書籍】[ The Man Who Dined with The Kaiser ]

＜p＞I am not a spy, that I wish to make abundantly clear; I am a journalist, and I love my profession. Equally well I love adventure and sport, the greatest sport in the world, in which the stake is the player’s life. “Were you ever afraid?” a young and charming English girl recently asked me. “Afraid!” I replied. “Listen! Imagine yourself with two maps next to your skin, each marked with German submarine bases, military works, and the like. Then you are interrogated by half-a-dozen German Secret Service officers. The least hesitation, the slightest faltering in a reply and, at a motion of the hand two German soldiers take you into an adjoining room, strip you, andーten minutes later you are dead.” The girl blushed: in my earnestness I had forgotten. Yes! I have been afraid many times; yet, with the gambler’s instinct, I have continued the game which, sooner or later, will probably end in a little episode in which the protagonists will be myself and a firing partyーsomewhere in the enemy country. I am a citizen of a neutral country. Those in high places whom it concerns know all about me, have seen my passports, examined what remains of my ticket on the Balkan Express with its perforation “18ー1ー16,” and can testify from the chain of documents I possess, from which not a link is missing, that I have actually been where I say I have. When war broke out I found myself in England, and I immediately saw in the terrible struggle great possibilities for myself. I am twenty-six years of age and speak, besides my native tongue, English, German, French and Flemish. I had lived in England before the war broke out, and have learned to love it second only to my own country. I was anxious to help in the great struggle, and I determined to try and find out as much as I could about the great German War-Machine. For twelve months I have been engaged upon this interesting task, visiting Frankfurt, Hanau, Neuwied, Essen (and other cities in Germany), Vienna, Buda Pesth, Bucharest, Sofia, Constantinople, Brasso, Rustchouk, Adrianople, Nish, Belgrade, Konia (Asia Minor), etc. Incidentally, I have proved that the German spy system is not so perfect as it is considered by many in this country. In all I have paid three visits to the enemy countries, each time using the same name, but following a different trade or profession. First I was a workman, and crossed the frontier in shamelessly shabby clothes and with very little impedimenta in the way of luggage. I professed to be a steel-driller, having had a very slight experience in that occupation, obtained for the purpose of my visit. In this guise I penetrated the German Holy of Holies, the famous Krupp factories at Essen. Here for some days I worked, until it was discovered what an execrably bad workman I was. Summary and ignominious dismissal followed, but never did a man take his dismissal less to heart than I. I had gathered some interesting and valuable information, and had seen many remarkable things. This was in March, 1915, although the account was not published until February, 1916, as the Censor prohibited my story appearing in the press, no doubt for very good reasons.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The mirror is a vital part in show business, but it also plays a significant role in life. It can be used to lie to others, but not to yourself. When you are alone, and look into your own eyes in the mirror, you can't sidestep the truth. #2 I weigh myself every morning. If I go up one pound, I take it off the next day. I am not a big pill-taker, and I rarely have a headache. I attribute my generous supply of energy to DNA, as my father was so filled with energy. #3 I am ashamed to admit that even with all the good things, there are still days when the misgivings creep in. I find it harder to roll with the punches. When this happens, I try desperately to resist indulging those ungrateful moods, but I just can’t. #4 Some of our senses lose some of their efficiency as we age. We may not notice this until we go to the eye doctor and get glasses, or until we can’t hear well.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Bizarre【電子書籍】[ Derek Andrew ]

＜p＞The things that engages me most when reading a book is that it has to be real life situations; and that you can imagine the scenes actually happening. Quite often what you hear in the news and watch on TV when you read about something fictional, it takes you on a type of imaginary hysterical type journey. It’s a form of escapism. So whether you're looking for scenes ranging from big time drug dealers wanting to get their revenge back on a gang of small time crooks who attempts to make an easy buck by doing a dirty on the dealer, to the jealous lover who's a bit of a psycho; who thinks that his girl friend is cheating on him, to real drama and mayhem when a panther is on the loose in the countryside village, and terrorises the hell out of the locals, you're going to want something that is going grip your attention, and not have you falling asleep... short stories especially humoured stories can take you on a journey that'll make you laugh.... I often find myself laughing at real life stories, you know anything from the shoplifter who is nicking stuff and can't get enough gear underneath their jumper until realize with great consternation totally oblivious to them being filmed on camera; and there's the disgruntled neighbour who's unhappy with his neighbour. If you think about it there are so many things in life that makes you say to yourself no way, you cannot be serious; and this is where your sense of humour comes in. There is one thing said about humour, and that it should give you a type fake reality that is uplifting and makes you feel cheerful.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Mona Maclean, Medical Student: A Novel【電子書籍】[ Graham Travers ]

＜p＞There was no reply for a second or two. The first speaker was carefully extricating herself from the hammock in which she had been idly swinging under the shade of a smoke-begrimed lime-tree. "No," she said at last, shaking out the folds of her dainty blue gown, "I flatter myself that I do not look like it. I have often told you, my dear Mona, that from the point of view of success in practice, the art of dressing one's hair is at least as important as the art of dissecting." She gave an adjusting touch to her dark-red curls and drew herself to her full height, as though she were defying the severest critic to say that she did not live up to her principles. Presently her whole bearing collapsed, so to speak, into abject despair, half real, half assumed. "But I do wish I were dead, all the same," she said. "Well, I don't see why you should make me wish it too. Why don't you go on with your book?" "Go on with it! I like that! I never began. I have not turned a page for the last half-hour. That's all the credit I get for my self-repression! What time is it?" "A quarter past twelve." "Is that all? And the lists won't be up till two. When shall we start?" "About three, if we are wiseーwhen the crush is over." "Thank you! I mean to be there when the clock strikes two. There won't be any crush. It's not like the Matric; and besides, every one has gone down. I am sure I wish I had! A telegram 'strikes home,' but the slow torture of wading through those listsーー!" She broke off abruptly, and Mona returned to her book, but before she had read half-a-dozen lines a parasol was inserted between her eyes and the page. "It will be a treat, won't it?ーwiring to the other students that everybody has passed but me!" "Lucy, you are intolerable. Have you finished packing?" "Practically." "Do you mean to travel half the night in that gown?" "Not being a millionaire like you, I do not. You little know the havoc this frock has to work yet. But I presume you would not have me walk down to Burlington House in my old serge?" "Why not? You say everybody is out of town." "Precisely. Therefore we, the exceptions, will be all the more en ?vidence. I don't mean to be taken for an 'advanced woman.' Some of the Barts. men will be there, andーー" But Mona was not listening. She had risen from the cushions on which she had been lounging, and was pacing up and down the grass. "You know, Mona, you may say what you please, but you are rather white about the gills yourself, and you have no cause to be." Mona stopped and shot a level glance at her companion. "Why not?" she said. "Because I have been ploughed once already, and so should be used to skinning like the eels?" "Nonsense! How you contrived to fail once neither I nor any one else can pretend to explain, but certain it is that, with the best of will, you won't achieve the feat a second time. You will be in the Honours list, of course." Mona shrugged her shoulders. "Possibly," she said quietly, "if I pass. But the question is, shall I pass? 'Oh the little more, and how much it is!?And the little less, and what worlds away!'" They were walking up and down together now. "And even if you don'tーit will be a disgrace to the examiners, of course, and a frightful fag, but beyond that I don't see that it matters. There is no one to care." Mona's cheek flushed. She raised her eyebrows, and turned her head very slowly towards her companion, with a glance of enquiry. "I mean," Lucy said hastily, "you areーthat is to say, you are not a country clergyman's daughter like me. If I fail, it will be the talk of the parish. The grocer will condole with me over the counter, the postman will carry the news on his rounds, and the farmers will hear all about it when they come in to market next Wednesday. It will be awfully hard on the Pater; heーー" "From what I know of him, I think he will be able to hold up his head in spite of it." They both laughed.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Love, Lust & a Whole Lot of You【電子書籍】[ Anna Maxwell ]

＜p＞It seems like a lifetime ago that I started writing this book. In fact, at the time, I had no idea I would turn it into a book. I guess you could call much of this book woeful, and in a way it definitely is, but don’t we all have to experience some sort of crippling heartbreak at some point in our lives in order to make us who we are? I’m not overly good at letting myself feel my own emotions, many who know me personally may describe me as a little bitter sometimes but poetry has been my way of making sense of my particularly strong emotions or feelings since I was a teenager. (Teenage me is dying at the thought that anyone might know I write poems!) This is really just a whole load of emotions I’ve felt over the years of one particular love that I’ve either tried to make poetic, or so simple it just hits a note. So here goes…my heart is on my sleeve…or in your hand, in the form of this book. I hope it makes you feel something, or maybe you resonate with one or two pieces yourself. Either way, I hope you enjoy it. All the best, Anna＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Kangaroo Hunters: Adventures in the Bush【電子書籍】[ Anne Bowman ]

＜p＞I am a selfish creature, O'Brien, said Mr. Mayburn, the rector of Wendon, to his invalid friend. "I cannot forbear from coming once more to annoy you with my lamentations, and to ask your counsel, for I am most unhappy. Every object I behold, every word I hear, recalls to my mind my bereavement. I cannot remain in this place after the loss of my beloved wife. She was the moving power of my household. It was she, in fact, who was the pastor and director of the parish, the skilful tutor of her children, the guide and the guardian of her weak and erring husband. Alone, I am unfit for my responsible office; I shudder over the conviction that I am faithless to my vows; I know, O'Brien, that I do not fulfil my duty." "There is an easy remedy for your distress, my good friend," answered Captain O'Brien; "my advice is, do your duty, and be comforted." "It is physically impossible, O'Brien," said the mourner. "My nerves are shattered; my health is completely destroyed. I shrink from communion with society; and though I exert myself to give my boys their daily lessons, I would afterwards gladly enclose myself in my study, and live amongst my books." "No doubt you would," replied O'Brien; "but God did not send us into this world to vegetate in solitude, and bring forth no fruit. Act, Mayburn, I beseech you, man; power comes with action, you know well; and whatever man has done, may be done. Work! work! is the counsel of the worn-out dying soldier to him who has yet the labors of life spread before him." "But you have no idea how feeble my bodily powers are," groaned the rector. "I can form a very tolerable idea of your strength," said the captain; "for the last time I was out I saw you plunged up to the knees in the green marsh, regardless of a cold north-east March wind." "I remember the day well," answered Mr. Mayburn, with animation, "for I was fortunate enough to obtain the eggs of the crested grebe in the marsh. You will not have forgotten that the preceding summer I got a fine specimen of the bird." "Very well," said his friend; "now, if you were able thus to toil and to endure to save the eggs of a bird, you may surely exert yourself still more to save the soul of a Christian. Go more among your poor; talk to them, help them with your knowledge, and teach them to live happily and die happily. I am not without experience in such work, Mayburn; as long as I was able, I had a little flock of my own; and in secular matters at any rate, was a sort of parish priest among my soldiers. I felt an interest in the history and in the daily life of every man in my company, and was never more at home than in the nooks and corners where my poor fellows dwelt. It was this pleasant and profitable work that Mrs. Mayburn ably accomplished for you, and I see Margaret is treading in her steps; go with her, Mayburn, support her in her virtuous course, and you will discover that life has still its pleasures for you."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Can anyone truly answer the question when the shroud of darkness descends upon your life without warning? Or when death is knocking at your door, trying to get you to answer it?

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Dragon Sky【電子書籍】[ Matt Smith ]

＜p＞Dragon Sky＜/p＞ ＜p＞By: Matt Smith and Cliff Wise＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dragon Sky, while it stands alone, is only one half of a much larger story. The core of the book focuses on the struggles of three strangers: Crystal, Alicia, and Assan. All three undergo growth in their own way. Crystal begins as a point of calm in a world of chaos. Is she the only one who has answers to unanswerable questions? But over time her companions learn the truth that they must come to trust their own insights. And Crystal sees that she can't stand alone. Separately, Crystal, Alicia, and Assan, create three elemental beings. While the setting could be referred to as post-apocalyptic, there are many aspects of it that make it unique. What had caused the Apocalypse is still present, lurking in the background: a constant threat more felt than consciously aware of. The "Shades," as they are known, are incarnations of pure terror and only become more terrifying the more the characters learn. The lesson I hope my readers learn from my characters is that perseverance can see you through everything. Try to surround yourself with people who will inspire you.＜/p＞ ＜p＞About the Author＜/p＞ ＜p＞When I was young, my interest in literature was limited by my ability to read. Not long after I was born, I developed a tumor that damaged both eyes. And while reading children's books was easy due to their large font, standard print was extremely difficult. The technology that existed to assist people like me was limited, in its infancy. It wasn't until high school that I found myself eager to read. Thanks to my freshman English teacher, I was introduced to the idea that the writer’s words are only half of the story. It's the meaning and symbolism we attribute to them that affect how we experience the world that the author has created. It was also around this time that audiobooks began to be easily accessible. From then on that’s how I experienced literature. When I began writing myself, I received a great piece of advice. A close friend of my uncle's, who had agreed to assist in editing this very book, told me that he felt like my book was reading to him. He told me to work hard to accentuate that aspect of my writing. That is advice I took to heart. Hopefully, anyone who reads my books lets my books read to themーas that is the best compliment I could ever receive.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

I am here to tell you, my friend, that you are not alone.＜/p＞ ＜p＞You try to catch yourself before you slip but you realize it is too late. I have a long history of depression, and nothing has helped me. As I got older, I had to face it on my own. I learned that I had to start living for myself alone and say no to depression. Figuring myself out and how to treat depression, I caught HIV. It triggered my depression to the extent that I isolated myself in the house for six months and lost everything!＜/p＞ ＜p＞During the time I had with myself, I got to know who I really was. I developed a relationship with God and realized everything was on his time for a reason. I had to find peace within myself to help me cope with my depression. I started writing my feelings out about my life and where it all began. My life has tormented me so much that at times I forget who I am. But I can say I fight every day and admit to what I suffer from, so I can feel comfortable with myself. We all have our problems but never let your problems define who you are as a person.

＜p＞Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I had a rare neuromuscular condition called hemifacial spasm, which was triggered by two cranial nerves behind my ear. In 2004, a doctor in Pittsburgh corrected my spasms by inserting a tiny sponge to separate the two entwined nerves. Now, seven years later, I was convinced my spasms had returned. I was afraid that my face would tic uncontrollably. #2 I went to see a therapist who was contracted with Aetna. She asked me standard questions about my depression, and when I couldn’t remember a time when I’d felt comfort, I broke down in tears. #3 I have always struggled to prove myself to others. I’m a modern-day scrivener, working five times as hard as others and still not being appreciated for my efforts. #4 The self-hating Asian is characterized by seeing yourself the way the white majority sees you, and thus becoming your own worst enemy. Your only defense is to be hard on yourself.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞I am a first and one-time author with a special purpose: self-understanding and personal growth through my memoirs. After six years of digging through life's events, tapping into my eidetic memory for the pointed details of the good and bad days of my soul, I give myself to you.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The good loves, along with those entangled with evil and low self-esteem, are raveled up in a search for what love is supposed to be.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Love would be kindled and found for me but then lost in not being able to give, believe or receive life's greatest treasure.＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞I shrouded love in poisonous passion, fear and hate.＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Some choices in my life moved me toward self-interpreted success while other things I chose to do took me to the edge of society and the law. My voice is from the heart in the hope to inspire within you an empathy to those different than yourself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Two lifelong friends encouraged me and stood by me through my journey of self-reflection. After all the years of knowing me, one said "she loved me even more after reading my story," and it doesn't get any better than that. So please, sit down and have a cup of coffee with me, be amused, and understand why I did the things I did. Yes, you'll laugh and even possibly experience shock at times, but more importantly, you will "see me."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Though the book does not end with a "happily ever-after," you will see the magic of introspection, along with the peace and acceptance it provides.

＜p＞Is It Me?＜/p＞ ＜p＞By: Tiffany M. Randall＜/p＞ ＜p＞How can someone be with someone else if they do not know themselves? You want the fairy tale life that you have always dreamed of, but most importantly someone to share it with. You fail sometimes or even think you're winning with someone, but then that too fails. You start to lose hope that you will find someone to spend the rest of your life with or that someone you cannot stop thinking about. Sometimes it seems far away and sometimes it has been right in front of your face and you just keep overlooking them. You ask yourself IS IT ME? Am I not doing something right? How come my friends have someone but not me? Then you think, do I even know myself before I try throwing myself out there to someone else. It is all about knowing who you are, so you do know what to look for and not just chasing a hopeless dream. When you figure out who you are, the odds are endless.＜/p＞ ＜p＞About the Author＜/p＞ ＜p＞Tiffany M. Randall is a single parent of two children.

＜p＞Here at Remington it has become clearly evident that mediocrity wasnot a path chosen by anyone in this book. It has also become vividly apparent that humanitarian contribution was a common theme in the lives of many of these professionals and as a company we made it our primary objective to recognize those contributions first and foremost. Although the foundation of our company is based on networking and mutual collaboration we felt it was our moral obligation to assist in any way we can the professionals who demonstrated extreme self-sacrifice and compassion for others. We would also like to mention that our staff went to great personal length to get the fine details of each and every person in this book. We pride ourselves in offering much more than a registry and a basic summary of each professional. We encourage you the reader to immerse yourself in the lives of others. Experience the joy, pain, adversity, fear and heroism of some of the most brilliant professionals on our planet. Speaking for myself and the staff of the Remington Registry of Outstanding Professionals we hope you enjoy reading our book and it is our sincere desire that you draw inspiration from it and use it as a tool when relentlessly pursuing your dreams.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
