Book excerpt: True stories from New York Times bestselling author Jodee Blanco's tours Have you ever felt alone, as if no one understands what you're going through, and that no matter how hard you try, you're scared things may never get better? Do you wish your classmates would give you a break? I felt that way often in school. I was bullied and excluded for the same reason maybe you or someone you know has been--simply for being different. There were days when all I wanted was to stay in my room. Back then, I would have given almost anything to meet the kids you're going to meet here. Autumn dreaded recess. Joshua was afraid to trust anyone at home or at school. Taylor had lots of friends until her BFF turned them all against her. Gabe's online gaming world was turned upside down when other players started humiliating him. A teacher was bullying Brianna. Eric's Asperger's made him the butt of cruel jokes. The cool crowd beat up Tiffany and videotaped it for YouTube. Zach got punched and stomped on because of his weight. Trinity felt invisible. Aamina was harassed because of her family's religious beliefs. Riley had to live with the soul-crushing weight of mental illness as well as the other students who jeered at her plight. These are some of the brave teens who will be talking to you in this book. They--and others they inspired--found the courage to stand up to their bullies and reclaim their lives, and you'll hear exactly how they did it. You're not alone anymore.

Download or read book The Heart written by Roy F. Berina and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2010-01-04 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the intolerable deterioration of our moral fabric, bringing us to the point that right is wrong and wrong is right, a dire necessity exists not only to curtail such regress but to set things on the proper course. The heart, which governs morality of human thought and action, is summoned to act as the guide out of this rut and onto the path of righteousness and fair treatment of each other. In the pursuit of truth and justice, the Moral Code, which is comprised of the Last Six Commandments, the "Friend" Rule, the Golden Rule, and the "Spare the Rod Spoil the Child" Rule, is therefore proposed as the "just" Rule of the Land. This then is utilized as the foundation to achieving morally correct conclusions or courses of action to social problems, issues or difficulties that we encounter, especially in these morally trying times. An important application of this concept is in our governance. The good heart has guided us to an amazing conclusion that the ideal form of government is that which is based on the Moral Code, the ideal Rule of the Land, and Participative Democracy, the ideal form of democracy which completely satisfies the requirements, of the people, by the people and for the people; rather than the form of government based on the Legal Code, a flawed and harmful code set, and Representative Democracy, a faulty, dangerous and costly imitation of Participative Democracy. We, the people, are therefore urged, by this revelation, to wake up from this detrimental governmental slumber and empower ourselves by declaring independence of the current system and by instituting the ideal form of government. This land belongs to us and to no one else, and its future rests solely on our participation in this overwhelming but absolutely necessary endeavor. Wake Up! Rise Up! Participate!
