Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Don't You Dare Stop Dreaming: A Midlife Guide to Rekindling Goals, Grit & Grace is not your typical self-help book. It doesn't preach, pressure, or promise a perfect life in six easy steps. Instead, it invites you to sit down, breathe deep, and remember that your story isn't over-it's just getting good.Written with both humor and hope, this bold midlife manifesto by artist, speaker, and creative Susan D. Sharp is a breath of fresh, funny, and faith-filled air. It meets you in the messy middle-with career changes, caregiving chaos, stalled dreams, and questions that keep you up at 2 a.m.-and reminds you that dreaming isn't something we outgrow. It's something we come back to, with more clarity, courage, and coffee.Through true stories of late bloomers and bold re-starters-like the painter who didn't pick up a brush until after retirement, the woman who started a cupcake business from her basement, and the man who finally finished the children's book he shelved decades earlier-this book reveals how transformation is possible even when life hasn't gone to plan.With insights from modern thinkers like Marsha Sinetar (Do What You Love, The Money Will Follow), Danielle Krysa (Your Inner Critic Is a Big Jerk), and Elle Luna (The Crossroads of Should and Must), you'll learn to: Embrace your evolving definition of successTake tiny, consistent steps toward a revitalized dreamMake peace with past detours and detours still to comeSpeak your longings out loud-without apologySay yes to joy, hobbies, and creative playInvite collaboration and ask for help boldlyDiscern between ego goals and legacy goalsPitch, pivot, and persist with God as your ultimate encouragerEach chapter includes journal prompts, 'what if ' exercises, biblical wisdom, and space to reflect on how God still delights in your dreams. You'll be reminded that failure isn't the end-it's fertilizer. That play isn't frivolous-it's fuel. And that midlife isn't about fading out. It's about turning up the volume on your voice, your vision, and your victory.Whether you're in your 40s, 50s, 60s or beyond-if your spark feels dim or your goals feel out of reach, this book is your friendly nudge and heartfelt permission slip. You don't have to be famous, flawless, or fearless. You just have to be willing to say 'yes' to the next brave step.Don't You Dare Stop Dreaming is part pep talk, part prayer, part creative workbook-and all grace.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - It's the 1970s. Riots springing from social and political turmoil plague the nation. Martin Luther King, Jr., is assassinated. Richard Nixon resigns after the Watergate break-in and coverup. Planes are hijacked and forced to fly to Cuba. Terrorists' demands are printed in the newspaper. It is long before social media. Before cell phones. Before personal computers. Before CDs, even. If you love music, you have to listen to the radio or buy records, 8-tracks, or cassette tapes at the mall. DJs are locally well-known.Rick Morgan gained fame in Pittsburgh and is an up-and-coming name in Chicago area radio. He and his wife Linda have suffered their share of bumps in the road: her father's unexpected death, her diagnosis of secondary infertility, her gunshot wound in the teacher's parking lot at her school, and Rick's own job upheaval woes that have buffeted them and tested the ties that bind. But it all blows up on a Labor Day weekend marathon broadcast in 1976.Terrorists-the Freedom Now! splinter group-decide to spread their message more efficiently. They seize WPYM, the secluded station where Rick works, and they hold his wife and daughter hostage at their home. They plan to raid the Joliet Arsenal for weapons and explosives. Then, using a fortified WPYM as their base, they will rain terror down on the Chicago area and broadcast their terrorist manifesto around the clock to the Chicago area.Rick is forced to stay on the air 'as usual' while they make their preparations. He hatches a desperate plan to stop them. It's crazy, but it's his only chance. Rick counts on program director Walker Wright's knowledge that WPYM is a Priority A station. And Rick is relying on Walker's obsession to meticulously list all the songs Rick plays that are not on 'The List,' the station's approved playlist, that all the DJs-except Rick-abide by during their shifts. If his plan fails, hundreds will die. It MUST succeed.With an AK-47 and a Colt 1911 handgun in his face, events of Rick's life pass before him as he tries to focus on what he must do to keep his family safe. Priority A uses multiple time lines that weave from the present (1976) to Rick and Linda's sometimes rocky, sometimes joyous, history and back again, threading it all into the critical drama that now holds hundreds of lives in the balance.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The boy appeared in the Spring of 2245. It was April 1, 2245, to be exact. He was found by a couple standing in a field on their farm in Kansas. He was about eight or nine, but his age was never quite pinned down as he was only there for a short time. At first, Doris and Samuel Merritt thought the boy was lost. They tried to find where he was from, but the child refused to speak. He just stood in that field staring. Doris welcomed the boy to come out from the cold, but the child firmly stood in place.After a few minutes, dawn had finally revealed the sun, and its heat began to heat up the land ever so slightly. Doris was waving to Samuel for him to come closer. He did and when he was near, she whispered, 'He looked up into the sun.' It was the first sign that the boy gave any indication that he was aware of his surroundings. Then it happened. The boy looked at both of them, smiled and said, 'Welcome to your new home.'What if we really are not alone What if there came a day when all our probes into the deepest reaches of the universe are received The Visitor explores that exact possibility. Beware of sending messages into space, you never know who might be listening.…
