Come with me on a journey. I am going to share many experiences that have happened to me over the last few years. This all started when I asked Jesus to be in my life. This is a true story telling what happens when I am alone and quiet. At first, I did not know what it was exactly, and what did it mean? I never know when it will happen, but words will just randomly come to my mind. So I have felt the need to write them down. I am always amazed at the beautiful words that have been given to me. I feel the need to share them with others. So I ask that you keep an open mind as you come to know my journey better. I am sure there will be some surprising moments, and you may walk away with some questions, but who is to question one person's journey against the others. God is the only one that truly knows his plan for each and every one of us. I know there is meaning in them, and just maybe one of them is meant for you.

Kurihara Sadako was born in Hiroshima in 1913, and she was there on August 6, 1945. Already a poet before she experienced the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, she used her poetic talents to describe the blast and its aftermath. In 1946, despite the censorship of the American Occupation, she published Kuroi tamago (Black Eggs), poems from before, during, and immediately after the war. This volume includes a translation of Kuroi tamago from the complete edition of 1983. But August 6, 1945, was not the end point of Kurihara’s journey. In the years after Kuroi tamago she has broadened her focus—to Japan as a victimizer rather than victim, to the threat of nuclear war, to antiwar movements around the world, and to inhumanity in its many guises. She treats events in Japan such as politics in Hiroshima, Tokyo’s long-term complicity in American policies, and the decision in 1992 to send Japanese troops on U.N. peacekeeping operations. But she also deals with the Vietnam War, Three Mile Island, Kwangju, Greenham Common, and Tiananmen Square. This volume includes a large selection of these later poems. Kurihara sets us all at ground zero, strips us down to our basic humanity, and shows us the world both as it is and as it could be. Her poems are by turns sorrowful and sarcastic, tender and tough. Several of them are famous in Japan today, but even there, few people appreciate the full force and range of her poetry. And few poets in any country—indeed, few artists of any kind—have displayed comparable dedication, consistency, and insight.

"Michael's autism, whether a condition or a disorder, was distrubingly detailed in The Color Red, Julie Jurgens-Shimek's first account of her son's developmental disorder. Shock, fear, and frustration prevailed--that is until displaced by acceptance, faith, and love. Autism Is a Four-Letter Word: Love is the story of that journey. The story is poignant: Some of the antics are humorous; others depict day-to-day living at home and at school. Overall, the message of Autism Is a Four-Letter Word ... is a cry for help--help from local, state, and federal jurisdictions, from politicians, from lobbyists to fund the research and facilities that will keep our autistic children safe, that will provide early education to teach self care, social, and communication skills. If you have a child with autism, this book is a must-read. Autism Is a Four-Letter Word ... is a book of comfort and support for other families of autistic and special-needs children. It will make you laugh; it will make you cry; and it may make your blood pressure spike. Julie Jurgens-Shimek gives voice to families of autistics who feel they are alone, to let them know they are not. She is eager to share her experiences, to lend courage to any who are affected, and to develop a unified cry from all in the bewildering world of autism. Autism Is a Four-Letter Word ... is a powerful account of the progress that is possible, that against formidable challenges, the Shimeks have learned how best to play the hand. When love prevails, Michael thrives as his journey continues."--
