About this listen
In a world full of turmoil, our children are being cheated, not to mention, mentally, physically and sexually abused. Confronted with WWIII, nuclear annihilation, and massacres in our schools, coping is but a struggle on a daily basis. Is it any wonder then; a state of denial? Are our children not being desensitized by violence, numbed as a way of coping by accepting violence itself as routine? What's happening to our social and family values? What about good old-fashioned fun—nature, fishing, horsing around, and worms?
Did you ever see a worm after a heavy rain, crawling, helplessly lost on a long wet sidewalk, knowing, just waiting—anticipating being baked alive by our hot sun? Did you ever stop and help at least one? Try it, you might get a surprise. Maybe he’ll poop in your hand for luck. Oops, brew-ha-ha—Oouey Gooey!
This book carries a message of hope as it presents an opportunity, with interactive substance, to make a difference if you are willing to accept the challenge. It is both captivating and compelling as it demonstrates family and social values—little lessons in life. Surprise will move and inspire both child and parent as it entertains the simple joys of life—fun, nature, fishing, horsing around, and worms, which leads to the ultimate surprise as Oouey prepares to make the world a better place for all to live in!

The Legend....
It all started way, way back in the so-called Garden of Eden, with Adam and Eve, who Oouey’s greatest granddaddy, Ebenezer Worm (whose name implies "Divine Help" or "Deliverance") tried but failed to warn and enlighten. For he attempted to prevent and later conquer evil as he stuck his neck out of "The Apple’ and shouted: “Excuse me, Madame,” just before the "Original Sin", or first bite. But, Eve was so intoxicatingly engrossed....

In Everthing Is F*cked, Mark Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment, and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive.

Think of The War of Art as tough love...for yourself. Since 2002, The War of Art has inspired people around the world to defeat "resistance"; to recognize and knock down dream-blocking barriers and to silence the naysayers within us. Resistance kicks everyone's butt, and the desire to defeat it is equally as universal. The War of Art identifies the enemy that every one of us must face, outlines a battle plan to conquer this internal foe, then pinpoints just how to achieve the greatest success.

Awareness awakens you to the truth that you possess everything you need right now to be happy and fulfilled. Happiness is your natural state. You don't need to do anything to acquire it; you only need to drop something. This audiobook shows you what that is. There is not a single person who ever gave time to being aware who’s quality of life didn't change. You see life differently because you are different. You respond to people and situations differently. You see things you have never seen before. Beautiful things. You're much more energetic, much more alive.

Life - if you've ever thought you might be doing it wrong, you're not alone. Objects in the Mirror: Thoughts on a Perfect Life from an Imperfect Person is a collection of essays that explores what it means to be alive. Like Polaroids framing the years of a troubadour and family man afflicted with an excess of self-awareness, these are stories without any clear good guys or bad guys. Instead, in each of these vignettes you will find dysfunctional humans trying to do their best and bouncing off each other in the process.

The best way to learn what’s possible is to look at what others have done. It is easier to believe you can accomplish something if others before you have shown the path to be walked upon. Moreover, some things you can tell yourself will get you through even the toughest of days, and these are all included in this motivational guide. How you can achieve more success is also addressed. The steps you need to take to achieve success, in a general sense, are typically similar. Knowing them is one thing. Taking those steps after listening to this, and taking action, is another.

Life is messy. It isn't a color within the lines exercise. It's a wild and outrageous invitation full of uncertain outcomes. The mess of life is both inevitable and unexpected. It is filled with delightful mysteries and frustrating predicaments. In our disposable culture, we throw broken things away. So, what will we do with broken people, broken relationships, broken institutions, broken families, and of course, our very own broken selves? We are all broken and wounded.

Where can you find joy? Gain strength? How should we face our fears? Deal with the death of a loved one? And what about those reoccurring depressing thoughts? While traditional schooling doesn’t address such questions, it’s exactly what ancient schools of philosophy were all about: They taught you how to live. Even though these schools don’t exist anymore, you and I and most people are in as much need of a philosophy that guides us through life as we ever were. This compelling, highly actionable guide shows you how to deal more effectively with whatever life throws at you.

Story
Uncover the core of goodness within. Love, compassion, meaning, hope, and freedom from fear are not qualities we need to acquire. We simply need to uncover what we already have. "Original goodness" is Eknath Easwaran’s phrase for this spark of divinity hidden in every one of us, regardless of our personal liabilities or past mistakes. Commenting on the Beatitudes from the Sermon on the Mount, Easwaran shows how this spark of divinity can energize our lives - beginning with a simple method of meditation that gradually removes the conditioning that hides our native goodness.

Story
There is a famous Zen story about a disciple, Riko, who once asked his master, Nansen, to explain to him the old Zen koan of the goose in the bottle. Namely, if a man puts a gosling into a bottle and feeds the gosling through the bottle's neck until it grows and becomes a goose - and then there is simply no more room inside the bottle - how can the man get it out without killing the goose or breaking the bottle? In response, Nansen shouts, "Riko!" and gives a great clap with his hands.

Story
The need for change as we get older - an emotional pressure for one phase of our lives to transition into another - is a human phenomenon, neither male nor female. There simply comes a time in our lives - not fundamentally different from the way puberty separates childhood from adulthood - when it's time for one part of ourselves to die and for something new to be born.

A 15-year-old boy is walking through a swirling fog on his way to school when a voice calls out, "Come here. We need to talk." Out of the mist emerges an old man with a white beard. He is a fantastic figure, as wizardly as Merlin, as wise as Socrates, as peaceful as Buddha. Whoever he is, the old man has appeared on that very day to change the boy's life. "You are old enough to learn about things," he says mysteriously. "And who is going to teach you but me?" The old man gives the boy four days of "soul training", a time of riddles, tricks, parables, and incredible twists.
