Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Sixty-Two Years Later', celebrates sixty two years anniversary of the author's first arrival date into the soils of America, (AKA 'The Land of Plenty, ) which is his endearing way of describing the great GOD BLESS America.The Author, Dr. John Ayoola Akinyemi, retired after 25 years of combined Civilian Service to both the United States Marine Corps (USMC), for 13 years, and the United States Department of the Army (DA), Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG), Aberdeen, MD., for twelve years. Prior to that, he had worked, while pursuing his PhD degree, at the National Institutes of Health, (NIH), Clinical Pathology Department, Bethesda, MD, alongside with his wife.He served as an Assistant Professor of Biology at Towson University, Towson, MD., for four years, after which that institution 'fired' him, or mildly put, 'refused to grant him tenure status.' Again, he stayed focused and resolute. He recalls this experience by saying 'when life throws a lemon at you, make it into a lemonade and celebrate!'His book encourages readers to persevere as they live their lives. Nobody promises you a 'rose garden', but be sure they have thorns. So beware. Equip yourself. Have a plan. If you don't, like my beloved Mother had said to me, decades ago, 'John, have a plan (for your life), because if you don't, you are planning to fail.America has no equal. She is the ONLY country I know where you can be all you want to be. It WONT be easy. BUT YOU CAN ACHIEVE YOURLIFETIME DREAM if you persevere and rise above your adversities. That's why the American Bald Eagle fascinates me so much!

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - BELONGING is not merely a modern-day Book of Genesis listing 'so-and-so begat so-and-so.' Instead, it delves deeply into what it means, from a profoundly human perspective, to belong. The author reflects on the famous words: 'No man is an island, entire unto himself.' He likens his emotions to those of visitors to the great monuments of Washington, D.C., who caress the names of individuals who gave their lives as the ultimate price for freedom. Through genealogical tracing, the author finds the greatest testimony to his humble background. He deeply appreciates the invaluable contributions of living family members back home in Africa, including his niece, Mrs. Gloria Olajumoke Oyesiku, as well as numerous nephews, cousins, and nieces, whose efforts enriched the authenticity of this book. Drawing inspiration from his alma mater, Methodist Boys High School, and its Latin motto, 'Non-Sibi Sed Aliis'-meaning 'Not for Us But for Others'-the author asserts that 'BELONGING' is not just for the living descendants but for future generations. It empowers readers to know their origins and emboldens them with the knowledge of their heritage. The family tree, rooted in a small Agboile (family compound) in Totoro, Abeokuta, has grown and flourished, spreading its branches across South Africa, Europe, and the United States. Like a tree planted near water, it continues to thrive, connecting its past to its present and beyond. Dr. John Ayoola Akinyemi hails from Nigeria, West Africa-a country that, at the time of his departure six decades ago to the USA, offered limited opportunities for better education and a brighter future. Like millions of immigrants before him, and many more to come, he found a haven in the United States. He served as a civilian in the U.S. Military for over 25 years before retiring in 2006.He was married to his beloved wife, Agnes Ndungwa Akinyemi (née Muthiani), for nearly 50 years. He memorialized her in his book, 'Coming 2 America,' which tells the story of a 15-year-old Kenyan girl who came to America in search of a better life.Dr. Akinyemi and Agnes have two adult children: Adedoyin Akinyemi, married to Randy Skipper, and a son, Olutobi Akinyemi, who is single. They are proud grandparents to four grandchildren: Randy Skipper, Maleek Skipper, Isaiah Olutobi Akinyemi, and Demetrius Joshua Skipper.Dr. Akinyemi is an avid gardener, a prolific writer, and enjoys life's simple pleasures, such as bird-watching, brisk walks, and singing to himself. He and his family reside in the Baltimore area, within less than an hour's commute-a true blessing.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The author dedicated his true story, posthumously to the memory of his mother. He talks about what constitutes a 'Quintessential Mother' by reflecting on the relationship between his mother and her adult children. He draws upon the seemingly endless love, admiration, and adoration for the importance of words his mother taught him and his siblings that we utter to friends and foe alike, and the immense power of prayers and forgiveness in our lives. He recalls how his 'quintessential' Mother, who passed away at age 87, lived a life of remaining calm in the midst of raging storms. He recalls the Bible story they often read in the family devotion (while growing up in Nigeria), about Jesus and His disciples panicking and desperately fearful that the boat they were in with Jesus, (who was taking a nap at the time), was about to capsize as the raging storm battled them. You know the story so well, I am sure. Their panic awakened Jesus, who said to them: 'O, ye, of little faith' and calmed the raging sea!' He recalls his mother's most powerful legacies to all her adult nine children. One such legacy is 'Have you prayed about 'it' By this, she meant 'Have you prayed and poured your heart to HIM about what is troubling your soul ' The other is that she reminded us of the Biblical injunction that says: ' Be Still And Know That I Am God. He reminds people of all faiths, and creeds: Jews and Gentiles, White, Black, Hispanics, Muslims, Christians, Agnostic, Buddhists, etc., etc, that we are ALL brought to this terrestrial earth by women, adorable women, our mothers, who would rather lose the jewelry they wear around their necks, and the earrings that glitter in their earlobes than have their children's needs go unmet! He puts it succinctly by telling this story: 'My heart sank when I saw, recently on TV networks, a clip on the mother and father of their son, who was killed by the ruthless act of antisemitism and hate, by a group called ISIS, on a direct order by the president of the USA, 'supposedly the greatest nation on earth'. That clip reminded me that the love that that mother has for her adult child, who was killed, is, for lack of a better adjective, must be 'consummate' love, next to God's redeeming love for comforting us in the midst of our sorrows!'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Pundits said to me, 'You, a 76-year-old husband, can't take care of your 72-year-old wife, who, at the time, was battling cognitive impairment.' I replied, 'Why not ' They suggested, 'Take her to a nursing home; don't kill yourself trying to care for her!' They probably meant well, but I knew better. I decided to honor the vow we made to each other in 1971: 'I take this woman, Agnes Ndungwa Akinyemi, to be my wedded wife. to honor and love her. for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.' Those powerful words sustained us through her battle with dementia. Deep in my heart, I know that if I had suffered from the same affliction, she would have taken care of me. My family and I chose to care for her in our home and not in a nursing home, as the pundits had suggested. The challenges were enormous, but LOVE conquered them all. She passed away peacefully at age 76.May her soul rest in peace.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - World peace will arise from the United States-a nation founded on the business of enslaving humanity. World peace cannot be established until world order is restored. President Donald Trump is attempting to restore order, but faces resistance from those who do not understand that slavery is America's backbone. The American Slave Nation, birthed and bred in the U.S., has been ignored since the Civil War-as if it never existed.
