GESÙ spesso si ritirava nel deserto, o sul monte a pregare, alzandosi presto al mattino o passando la notte in preghiera. Questo comportamento non passò inosservato, agli Apostoli che, continuamente, dicevano: "Signore insegnaci a pregare", richiamando il comando del Signore sulla necessità di una preghiera perseverante per essere in comunione con Dio e per santificarsi. Gli Apostoli si riunivano per la preghiera all'ora di terza. Lo stesso Pietro "salì verso mezzogiorno sulla terrazza a pregare"; allo stesso modo "Pietro e Giovanni salivano al tempio per la preghiera verso le tre del pomeriggio".... Il Breviario, o Liturgia delle ore, è la preghiera per mezzo di, con e in Cristo. L'unione con Gesù è resa possibile solo ed esclusivamente dall'appartenenza al suo Corpo Mistico: la Chiesa ! Infatti, chi ha ricevuto i Sacramenti dell'iniziazione cristiana diventa partecipe del sacerdozio di Cristo e quindi anche della sua continua preghiera. In questo senso Cristo è presente e opera la salvezza non solo durante la Celebrazione del Santo Sacrificio dell'Altare, ma anche nella preghiera della Liturgia delle Ore (Breviario) che è la preghiera ufficiale della chiesa. Il suo nome indica che non si tratta di un atto privato o individuale, ma di un "atto liturgico", ovvero qualcosa che riguarda tutta la Chiesa, Clero e fedeli; perciò appartiene a tutti i suoi membri. La preghiera rappresenta un diritto e un dovere di ogni battezzato. Il richiamo alle Ore ci aiuta a capire che lo scopo primario di questa azione liturgica è la santificazione della giornata e del tempo. Infatti, santificare le "Ore" significa santificare la vita per renderla vita divina.

This is a personal testimony of healing through faith and determination.

Bon Mot comes out of the woods to a trying pandemic that has hit the world. He is a born womanizer and lures three respective women to marry him and run for office. What office? The biggest of all.

University A University is an institution of higher (or tertiary) education and research which awards degrees in various academic disciplines. Universities typically provide undergraduate education and posgraguate education. The word "university" is derived from the Latin universitas magistrorum CT scholarium, which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars. While antecedents had existed in Asia and Africa, the modern university system has roots in the European medieval university, which was created in Italy and envolved from Christian Cathedral schools for the clergy during the High Middle Ages. According to Encyclopædia Britannica, the earliest universities were founded in Asia and Africa, predating the first European medieval universities. The University of Al Quaraouiyine, founded in Morocco by Fatima al-Fihri in 859, is considered by some to be the oldest degree-granting university. The oldest existing, and continually operating educational institution in the world is the University of Karueein, founded in 859 AD in Fez, Morocco. The University of Bologna, Italy, was founded in 1088 and is the oldest one in Europe. The Sumerians had scribal schools or É-Dub-ba soon after 3500 BC.

La première photo de cette performance fut enregistrée le vendredi 26 octobre 2012. À la place d'un tag, dessiné à côté du panneau, il y avait le mot fuck et un chat avec de grandes moustaches. La dernière photo fut prise le dimanche 15 novembre 2015. L'acte photographique révélait un réel imaginé positif qui validait le temps perdu de mon travail professionnel parfois nocif. Il le valida si bien, si concrètement, qu'une fois hors du contexte aliénant, les photographies retracèrent ces temps . Temps morts dont j'ai mentionné la nécessité psychologiquement productive, pour moi, dans le recueil du même nom. J'ai donc photographié pendant trois ans un panneau d'affichage, dans un petit village italien. J'étais un être en sériation en tant que photographe répétitif. J'explique dans la préface (40 pages) cet aspect mimétique et le processus de l'attente d'un changement que j'ai appelé Chronagophoto.

"I stare at the sky and it leaves me blind" - Manic Street Preachers. Backpacking Centurion was supposed to be a hat-trick, a trilogy. But Jonny Blair's 100-country journey had too many stories for that. These are the uncut ones, or should I say the "cut ones". They were left out for a reason and then stuck back in as a last minute supersub. They were too gruesome, gory, crazy, insane, wacky, zany, ridiculous and mad for inclusion in the hat-trick. There were the horrors of death camps, overflowing toilets, innocent drug smuggling, border confusion, cider sinking on night buses and mates having intercourse with inflatables in the author's living room. This Volume, The Black Volume, completes the Backpacking Centurion era and will leave us with a splendid 147 break. 147 chapters about 100 countries before the darkness fell over Malaga on that night down the pub when a new era was about to unfold. Out of the darkness and into the next century went Jonny Blair and his backpack. "Everywhere death row; everyone's a victim" - Manic Street Preachers.

Following on from the roaring international success of his debut collection of poetry, rants, and ramblings, the inimitable Dale Prudent returns with more of the same, only different.

Το να εγκλωβιστείς σε ένα ασανσέρ για ώρες δε βοηθάει και πολύ όταν προσπαθείς να σταματήσεις να σκέφτεσαι και να ξεχάσεις όλα τα λάθη που έχεις κάνει. Ειδικά αν το μεγαλύτερο από τα λάθη σου είναι εκεί δίπλα σου, στο ίδιο "κελί". Η Μόλυ καλείται να έρθει αντιμέτωπη με το μόνο άτομο που δε θέλει, να εξομολογηθεί μυστικά και να μάθει αλήθειες που έμειναν κρυμμένες για χρόνια. Όλες οι γλυκόπικρες αναμνήσεις παίζουν στο μυαλό της σαν μια ταινία που δεν μπορεί να σταματήσει, κάνοντας την καρδιά της κομμάτια για μια ακόμα φορά. Αλλά... Όσο μεγάλη και αν είναι μια αγάπη... μερικές φορές δεν είναι αρκετή για να τα διορθώσει όλα. Και το "δεν είναι αυτό που νομίζεις", πάντα... είναι. Σωστά;

"Spensi con cura il mozzicone sulla roccia e l'Omino di Vento si girò e iniziò a passeggiare sull'orlo del costone, poi cominciò a disfarsi in tantissimi brandelli che volavano dappertutto ma senza una goccia di sangue..."

Προσπαθώντας να ξεφύγεις από τους δαίμονές σου, ίσως να βάζεις σε ρίσκο το μέλλον σου. Προσπαθώντας να μη σκέφτεσαι όλους όσους έχεις χάσει στο παρελθόν, ίσως να μη βλέπεις καθαρά αυτόν που είναι δίπλα σου στο παρόν. Η Κάθριν καλείται να αντιμετωπίσει το πιο δύσκολο δίλημμα της ζωής της να βάλει τέλος στη ζωή κάποιου, ή να συνεχίσει να ζει στην προσωπική της κόλαση για πάντα; Ένας "ξένος" καταφέρνει να της δώσει μέσα σε λίγους μήνες μια σταγόνα αγάπης μεγαλύτερη από όλα όσα της έχει δώσει η οικογένειά της σε μια ολόκληρη ζωή... Όμως η εμπιστοσύνη είναι κάτι ανύπαρκτο και μοναξιά σημαίνει δύναμη. Σωστά;

¿Cabría encuadrar la poesía de Tirso Camacho Martínez-Carrasco en la conocida como "generación del 98"? Arranca la generación con el llamado "Grupo de los tres"- (Azorín, Baroja y Maeztu) que comenzaron a escribir de una manera juvenil, hipercrítica e izquierdista, aunque más tarde se orientará hacia lo tradicional. Pronto, Maeztu, y especialmente Baroja, negaron la existencia de tal generación. No obstante, posteriormente se sumaron algunos otros como, Ángel Ganivet (considerado por algunos autores como un precursor de la generación), los sevillanos hermanos Antonio y Manuel Machado y el filólogo Manuel Menéndez Pidal, entre otros. Componente de otra generación, la del 27, el gran poeta y ensayista Pedro Salinas afirmó en 1935 la existencia de la del 98, y para ello basó su análisis en el concepto "generación literaria". Se trata de un conjunto de escritores vinculados por una serie de ideologías y de estilos en un período de tiempo determinado, por lo general, de unos quince años, es decir, hasta 1915, o bien, hasta la crisis española de 1917. Así pues, a la vista de estos datos ¿cabría encuadrar la poesía de Tirso Camacho en la "generación del 98"? El tiempo dirá.

Il "Poeta dimenticato" vol. secondo. Raccolta di poeti in auge nella prima metà del secolo scorso in Sicilia.

South America is a continent of contrasts. Snow-capped peaks and tropical wildernesses. Vast pampa and arid deserts. Widespread poverty and concentrated wealth. Pre-Colombian temples and colonial churches. The Pachamama and Christianity. Abundant fruits and psychedelic plants. European modernity and Indigenous pride. Honourable people and violent criminals. Fiesta and sorrow. It is 1994: the internet and mobile phones do not exist and independent travel remains a true adventure. Following his trailblazing 1991 exploration of the continent, Tightwad Economist is back in South America to graze again on its magnetic and magnificent delights. This time he is joined by his long-time philosophizing errant amigo from small-town regional Australia, Bold Punter, and his enthusiastic brother Red Pibe, as they seek spirituality and scenery, language and learning, hikes and hallucinations, solidarity and sustenance, alcohol and affection. But what is the meaning of the quest? Why just keep travelling? One thing remains true; the less you spend the longer you travel. If the answer has not been found, then there is no option but to keep foraging for greener pastures.

Tirso Camacho, un poeta que ha sido laureado en numerosos juegos florales tanto dentro como fuera de esta región, publicó en 1908 un libro de versos bajo el título 'Auras de arriba'. Casi todas las poesías que conforman este volumen, bellamente impreso en las instalaciones de los sucesores de Nogués, han recibido premios en los mencionados juegos, tal como lo señala el propio autor. Este detalle indica que los versos de Tirso ya han sido juzgados favorablemente por personas de gran erudición. El libro se inicia con una conmovedora composición dedicada a su madre, que mereció la Flor Natural en los juegos florales celebrados en esta ciudad en el año 1901. El jurado de estos juegos estuvo compuesto por D. Federico Balart, D. Pedro Díaz Cassou y D. Juan José Herránz. Todas las poesías de Tirso están inspiradas en temas nobles y elevados. El autor canta a la patria, al amor, a la fe, al progreso, al trabajo y a la caridad; por ello ha titulado su libro 'Auras de arriba', un título que le sienta perfectamente.

Nuestro poeta quiso escribir un libro sobre sus poemas de Luciérnagas y Sensitivas, pero nunca llegó a cumplir este deseo. Observamos este anhelo en su libro Auras de Arriba del 1908 y en el periódico El Diario, donde bajo la rúbrica Luciérnagas nos hace saber que los poemas a continuación eran inéditos y correspondían a "Del libro en preparación Luciérnagas y Sensitivas". Al principio, Tirso Camacho comenzó en "Luciérnagas y Sensativas" con poemas sin título, indicando solamente los números romanos I, II, III, etc., pero esto cambió rápidamente meses más tarde por números romanos con sus correspondientes títulos. Es probable que nuestro poeta tuviera hecho un borrador de este libro, porque publicó la mayoría de estos poemas en los periódicos, destacando El Diario de Murcia. Por otra parte, publicó en su libro de 1908 algunos versos: La Pira, Virtud, La Dicha, El Lago, Claro-Obscuro, Estrellas errantes, Amor al prójimo, Expiación, Compasión, Soñar despierto, y Tierra y Cielo. No ha sido tarea fácil colocar todos los poemas en el lugar adecuado, porque muchos poemas no tienen número y con otros no sabemos si pertenecen al grupo de Luciérnagas o al de Sensitivas. Por estas razones, se han creado varios grupos para facilitar la lectura de los poemas.

Soldier, pioneer aviator, dry fly fisherman, prophetic dreamer and philosopher, JW Dunne was an extraordinary and fascinating character. Famous from 1910 until the postwar era, his seminal work on precognitive dreams became a bestseller. Many of his achievements have been lost to history, yet their stories form an astonishing tapestry of interweaving threads which changed much of the world around us today. He befriended greats such as HG Wells, lived much of his life in a moated castle, wrote to Hitler to try and prevent a Second World War, contemplated founding a new religion. This detailed, fascinating and highly readable account of his life is the first of its kind, made possible only by the Science Museum's recent acquisition of his vast professional archive. A comprehensive bibliography and index round it off for the serious historian.

In the vast tapestry of human thought, there exists a profound and enduring thread of philosophical inquiry. This thread, woven through the centuries, has been a relentless pursuit of understanding the fundamental nature of reality, the cosmos, and the human condition. "Ancient Philosophers: The Pro-Socratics, Sophists and Atomists" embarks on a journey through the annals of intellectual history, exploring the origins of Western philosophy and the thinkers who laid its foundational stones. The Pre-Socratic philosophers, often regarded as the trailblazers of Western philosophy, dared to question the world's mysteries and propose rational explanations. From Thales' assertion that "everything is water" to Heraclitus' profound insights into the nature of change, these ancient thinkers paved the way for the philosophical traditions that would follow. Philosophy is not solely an exercise in metaphysical contemplation. It also delves into the realm of human thought, ethics, and rhetoric. The Sophists, a group of itinerant teachers and intellectuals, offered a contrasting perspective. They were masters of persuasion and eloquence, teaching the art of rhetoric and the relativity of truth. Figures like Protagoras, Gorgias, and Prodicus challenged conventional wisdom and questioned the nature of knowledge and morality. In "Ancient Philosophers," we embark on an exploration of these intellectual luminaries, their ideas, and their lasting impact. Each chapter is a portal into the life and thought of a different philosopher, presenting their unique contributions to the world of ideas. From the enigmatic Heraclitus to the pragmatic Protagoras, we encounter diverse minds and perspectives that continue to resonate in modern philosophy.

Introduction My name is Joanne Moyles, And I am 52 years old. "I grew up not in a happy family, full of violence, alcohol, domestic abuse, and no love. always felt like an outsider and from an early age was abused, that is when my mental health started. Isolating and crying in a lot of pain inside and out. I Felt like I was in my own prison cell, a lot of the times I did not want to be alive, I felt all my feelings and emotions were locked up inside me. When in a lot of dark places I would write poems because the people who I wanted to believe in me, people in authority, who could have stopped it, never did. In my mind I thought if I wrote it down it might help with all the pain I was feeling. I had drunk for a lot of years from a very young age, which led me going into rehab at 50 years old. I had hidden all the pain and emptiness and all my self-worth, behind drink and drugs. I still struggle day by day, sometimes it is a minute at a time but that is ok."
