The best thing about these poems is that they tell pleasure and intimacy is not confined to her body but mind stimulations and caring bring better intimacy.  Couple of such poems in this case are Mind ...

“To be you is to fulfil your life’s purpose and to fulfil the purpose of life.”-Chris Cirak Be You by Mr. Chris Cirak is all about empowering a reader to be their best self by regaining the faith in oneself. As I started to read this book that aims to take you on a thoughtfully crafted self-realization journey, I started to understand that the main aim of the book is to remind you that you are worthy of everything if you remember your self-worth. Many a times in the course of our lives we forget our self-esteem. This book in each step reminds you to brush that settled dirt away by motivating yourself.   The different chapters revolve around emphasizing on your core values, insisting you to understand  your specific purpose of life, to achieve those goals being YOU and not forcefully change yourself like the world demands sometimes.  I too believe that the first step towards life and success is to understand one’s own self. It provides ancient knowl...

Be Careful What you wish for  Authored by: Laura J. Wellington I believe if you loved someone truly, if it was worth it and in course of time somehow it got lost in the physical world, a part of it always continues to live inside you till the end. This is a beautiful story of love, loss, respect grief, bond and hope. If you believe  love transcends beyond space and time, this is a story for you.  I didnot expect the story to be of this theme from the cover that almost emits a  mysterious thriller vibe but the story has an entirely different plot. Here is Evie, fed up with the relationship she has with Steven. But Life took a turn and she Rick met her. She narrates her story to a lady. I kept thinking whats the deal with Debra? Whose answer I got later.
