El Regalo del Tiempo: Cartas a Mis Hijos
Descriere: Escrito como una serie de cartas a sus hijos, Jorge Ramos--el periodista, viajero incansable, ganador del premio Emmy y autor bestseller--nos presenta el que es, sin duda, su libro más personal e íntimo Hay cosas que todo padre siempre quiere decirles a sus hijos. Sobre el amor. Sobre la muerte. Sobre lo que es realmente importante en la vida. Sobre el sexo. Sobre dios y la religión. Sobre sus abuelos y sus raíces. Sobre vivir en un país extranjero. Sobre cómo salir adelante. Y Jorge Ramos no se quedó con las ganas. En El Regalo del Tiempo nos recuerda que no hay que estar a punto de morirse para decirle a nuestros hijos cuanto los queremos y enseñarles las lecciones que, esperamos, les permitan llevar una vida más plena, honesta y-- por qué no?--alegre. Jorge comparte en este libro lo que nunca antes se había atrevido, siquiera, a sugerir en público. El Regalo del Tiempo es una mirada íntima y conmovedora del mundo en que vivimos y del rol que debe cumplir un padre. A través de su experiencia como testigo de muchos de los horrores y alegrías del mundo, Ramos le ofrece a sus hijos consejos sólidos que necesitan no solo para vivir, sino también para sobrevivir en el turbulento mundo de hoy. Sus sugerencias son universales. Este libro es de todos los tiempos y está cargado de emoción y de lecciones que sus hijos y sus lectores podrán llevar consigo para siempre. Aquí conocemos no solo la filosofía, los valores y las convicciones del conductor de televisión sino también al hermano, al hijo y, sobre todo, al padre que quiere contarles a sus hijos todas las cosas que ha aprendido en la vida. ""Al final de cuentas,"" concluye el padre-escritor, ""lo único que tenemos para regalarle a nuestros hijos es tiempo... nuestro tiempo.""

Bright Shining: How Grace Changes Everything
5,'A powerful book from one of my favorite writers on something we all need more of...and could give more of.' -- Ryan Holiday, bestselling author of The Obstacle is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy"Luminous. . . . A work to both devour and savour, Baird has, once again, written a book the world needs now.'"-- GuardianFrom the bestselling author of Phosphorescence comes a beautiful and timely exploration of that most mysterious but necessary of human qualities: grace.Grace is hard to define. It can be found when we create ways to find meaning and dignity in connection with each other, building on our shared humanity, being kinder, bigger, better with each other. If, in its crudest interpretation, karma is getting what you deserve, then grace is the opposite: forgiving the unforgivable, favoring the undeserving, loving the unlovable.Sadly, we live in an era when grace is increasingly rare. Our growing distrust of the media, politicians, and each other has choked our ability to trust, to accept, to allow for mistakes, to forgive.What does grace look like in today's world, and how do we recognize it, nurture it in ourselves and express it, even in the darkest of times? In this luminously ...

0,NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER"America's Mom" Tabitha Brown presents an inspirational guide for encouraging positive changes in your life--one day and one challenge at a time.I did a new thing today!Years ago, Tabitha Brown started a 30-day personal challenge that she called "I Did a New Thing!"

Other times, she'd step it up a bit and speak to someone she'd never spoken to before. Still other times, she'd do the hard thing--facing a fear that she had, like having that tough conversation with a friend. No matter what it was, the point was that she was going to take a leap of faith and watch God open up a new lane for her.One of the "new things" she tried was a vegan challenge. She'd been struggling with illness for nearly a year and was desperately searching for healing. She challenged herself to eat vegan every day for thirty days, and six years later, her life has never been the same--all because she decided to do a new thing.In I Did a New Thing, Tab shares her own stories and those of others, alongside gentle guidance and encouragement to ...
