"J" - The Sensuous Woman

Dell Books 7859, 1971

"The author of this book is not especially pretty"

 

"J" was the pseudonym of Joan Garrity

The Selfhelp Home was founded in 1938, as the Holocaust began, as a volunteer mutual-aid society where refugees and survivors could find community and rebuild their lives. Selfhelp officially became a ‘Home” in 1951 when it purchased the Drexel Mansion in Hyde Park, housing 19 residents. As the need surpassed space, Selfhelp purchased and rebuilt the building at 908 W. Argyle St. and subsequently expanded and purchased the 920 W. Argyle building next door several years later.

 

The organization in its advertising touts its service to Holocaust survivors. Here’s my experience. A friend’s mother was evicted from The Selfhelp Home some ten years ago because of insufficient funds. She was not only a survivor but as an inmate at Buchenwald was a slave laborer in the Mittlewerk bunker machining part for V1 and V2 rockets. The Jewish Federation of Chicago (the home is not part of the JUF) failed to assist her either.

 

North Carolina National Guard Soldiers put their engineering skills to the test at the NCNG’s armory in Butner N.C., July 25. The engineers use their annual training to improve their skills and readiness while upgrading NCNG facilities. “It is with training for them (Soldiers) and it costs less than if we hired someone to do it,” said Tony Ferguson, a retired NCNG Army Colonel and current NCNG contractor.

Holly Baade spoke about her journey as The Joyful Warrior, and showed us what a drum solo was really supposed to be like.

And Jairek Robbins gave a presentation on Creating Value regardless of the economy!

 

As usual, Sheena prepared a great buffet dinner for us, and we ate plenty good too!

Personal Development Plan

My new venture. This is why I haven't been on flickr much. I want to help people create the life they desire.

A book opened in the title page. Title means "I'm feeling fine, you're feeling fine", and it's a self-help book. No, I'm not feeling fine, but thank you for asking.

Libro abierto por la página del título. Es un libro sobre negociación de conflictos, llamado "Yo estoy bien, tú estás bien". No lo estoy, pero gracias por afirmarlo.

Peace of mind (मन की शांति) is desired by all. But how do we achieve it? We get agitated if someone insults us and we feel like slapping them in anger.

But to get peace of mind, first and foremost we should know 'who we are,' 'who is being insulted,' 'who operates the world and all the things that happen within it.' The pure Soul within each and every creature always remains pure. The ego has created all the impurity in the world.

In this video Pujya Deepakbhai, helps us understand why peace of mind is disturbed and what should we do to obtain it.

Prabhouti's widowhood should've been easier than most since she had four sons who could care for her. But the oldest two abandoned her, leaving her with two school-aged boys to provide for.
