Book excerpt: Mothers of addicted and alcoholic children share a deep connection—one that is rarely understood by anyone who hasn’t experienced a similar path. Sharing our perspectives helps us all grow stronger, together. “We all need to take a closer look at the things we’ve avoided—the things lurking around in this place where love and addiction meet—so we’re as strong as we can be.” —Sandra Swenson, author of Tending Dandelions In the shadows of our child’s struggles with addiction, we find ourselves tending to a life for which we weren’t prepared. These meditations continue the tradition of Hazelden’s beloved meditation books by providing moments of recognition, confession, and healing for those who are realizing that recovery rarely follows a neat or comfortable path. Along the way, we plant beautiful roses only to be injured by their thorns, and we pull up unwanted dandelions that, at times, are our only source of wishes. By sharing the realities we never expected our families to face, mothers of addicted children support each other through experiences that can only be feared and imagined by others. From our shared struggles emerge opportunities for personal growth. Tending Dandelions is a vital source of wisdom, support, and strength that helps us begin our own journey of recovery.

Book Synopsis Daisies and Dandelions by : Warren Jorgenson

Download or read book Daisies and Dandelions written by Warren Jorgenson. This book was released on 2011-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is America still what it once was? As recently as fifty years ago, America was a bold, spirited nation. The world regarded America as a bastion of freedom, democracy, wealth, and strength. Her God-fearing citizens were envied because of their remarkably high standard of living. The nation invited immigration and was always ready to help the downtrodden. One could come to America and become all that one wanted to be. The U.S. was admired as one of the wonders of the world due largely to the Constitution, with its dedication to fundamental rights of the individual and its belief in God. The diverse group of fifty-six signers of the Declaration had set the stage for a noble experiment, the likes of which the world had never seen. Today, the face of America is drastically different, with those who would decry her exceptionalism. In this politically charged book, Warren Jorgenson explores the fundamental differences between conservatives and liberals, whom he labels daisies and dandelions, respectively, and the current state of the U.S. He makes the case that it all boils down to quality of parenting and the first five years of a person's life. Good parenting produces daisies while poor parenting results in dandelions. Daisies and Dandelions is sure to incite heated discussions on both sides, but they're discussions worth having for the sake of America. Warren 'Jorgy' Jorgenson is a graduate of Drake University and an ex-marine and veteran of World War II when he was a prisoner of war of the Japanese. After the war, he spent more than thirty years in the phonograph record industry. He and his beloved Ruth are at home in California.
