English Smile

"I did not go to Nicaragua intending to write a book, or, indeed, to write at all: but my encounter with the place affected me so deeply that in the end I had no choice." So notes Salman Rushdie in his first work of nonfiction, a book as imaginative and meaningful as his acclaimed novels. In The Jaguar Smile, Rushdie paints a brilliantly sharp and haunting portrait of the people, the politics, the terrain, and the poetry of "a country in which the ancient, opposing forces of creation and destruction were in violent collision".

The Inner Smile is a practice that focuses gratitude and joy on the internal organs to resolve the physical and mental tensions that can lead to illness. In Taoism negative emotions - anger, sadness, depression, fear, and worry - are seen as low-grade energy that causes chronic disease and steals our major life force by creating energy blockages. Master Mantak Chia shows that the internal awareness produced by the simple yet powerful Inner Smile meditation practice flushes the organs of negative energy that may be blocking chi energy flow in order to nourish the entire body.

Ask anyone in town about Esau Bergmann, and you get the same reaction. Sour face. A disgusted gasp. Rolling eyes. He’s harsh, cantankerous, and downright rude. If he hasn’t offended you, it’s because you haven’t crossed paths with him. Esau has one lone friend in the world, and he wouldn’t have that but for the deep, dark secret they share that neither dares talk about any longer. Megan McAllister couldn’t be more different from Esau. Young. Carefree. Always sporting a mile-wide smile. She delights in everyone and everything. The odd thing about Megan, though, is that the ...

A single female missionary suggested, “You know, Don, you should write a book called Behind the Missionary Smile.” She continued, “When missionaries stand before potential supporters, report to current financial contributors, or give reports to mission agencies, family, and friends, they often do so behind a smile that says, 'Everything is wonderful. I’m at the top of my game, and the ministry is going great! All is okay. I’m okay. My ministry is worth your support.’” Yeah, right. Many times, we hide what’s really taking place in our lives behind a smile. So You Want to be a...
