Derk Mattocks was raised during a time when the fight for social justice was at its peak in the United States. Instead of shying away, he learned to challenge the circumstances and not let them dictate how he would live his life. Of course, Derk would say while he does not consider himself a fighter, there was something innate that led him to the top of a career field that was inaccessible to people of color during that Jim Crow period, a period meant to marginalize African Americans by denying them the right to vote, hold jobs, get an education or other opportunities. This was by no means an easy task, considering the opposition he faced trying to bring some normalcy in such a chaotic and dangerous environment in which he lived.Reflecting on his childhood, Derk acknowledges that he would not be one-tenth of the man he is now if it were not for his schoolteachers and community role models. They were genuine, in their teaching, nurturing, caring, and preparing him for any path he chose to take. They taught him how and where to look, but left it up to him to assess and act on his findings. They taught him diligence. Derk firmly believes that for anyone to reach his or her greatest potential, he/she must first be opened to mentoring and insights that show them how to tackle and manage challenging situations. He attributes his ability to convert challenges into opportunities to his schooling and mentoring at Belgrade Elementary, Silverdale Elementary, and Georgetown High. His sincerest wish is to live his life with dignity and respect while gaining more wisdom in the process.

A fictional prose tale of no specified length, but too short to be published as a volume on its own" - Definition by Chris Baldick in The Oxford dictionary of Literary Terms.The most emotionally touching yet successful short story writer is Rabindranath Tagore. He's referred as the father of the Bengali short stories.Golpesolpe kicchukhon or Tea time stories is a collection of twelve short stories. These stories mostly described and portrayed my memories and some of the ever lasting experiences that I carried from the very beginning of my childhood. The values, culture that I made of & etiquettes taught by my preceptors will be seen here as an underlying message.From the beginning of the book where a son met his mother tells us how caring our mums are! Even she's lying sick on her bed but never forgot to ask whether her son had his food or what actually he ate. The famous anatomist B.D.Chaurasia mentioned in his human anatomy book - "Since God can't be everywhere in person. He created mums. We thrive in the planet Earth because of these angle mums"Third one is a recalling of a huge Bengali cultural and religious celebration - Durga Puja! How sweet was the childhood days of the past were when there's not much rush or people weren't used to stay busy in their smartphones. An old traditional celebration held in his aunt's house and a part & parcel of Bengali culture described here in a story.Next we moved towards the social issues of the society. The most ruthless and common form is child labour! An author's view of seeing it very closely and on daily basis. Also this is the only story of the book which is dedicated to late Resma Nahar Ratna who's an inspiration for creating this story. She passed away too early leaving behind her amazing legacy of leadership and fighting against irregularities of the society.The most glorious part of the author's country is the victory in 1971 against Pakistan. It's a memory of his fathers family's escape from Bangladesh to the refugee camps in India. Any journey talks that about the borderline of life and death will surely give goosebumps to the fellow readers.Moving towards the eight story. It's completely different from other stories of this book as it's a combination of three mini stories which get compiled into a single story. A thief, a trained & pet dog and finally a pair of winter gloves. Sounds interesting! Isn't it Ninth one is a memory recalling of the writer's little niece - Megh arohi whom he met only once! Her presence was unique because of her innocent thoughts and sweetness.Eleventh one is a special one in the sense of a single mother spends her time without her children in a country where she all alone. The dream a mother always nurtures and carries all her life to see her sons and grandsons playing and rising around her sometimes get shattered by reality!Last but not the least, it's a revamp of the very first story written in 2005. A trip to the hill areas of Chittagong - Bandarban forest & it's amazing scenic beauty.Enjoy reading!(c)Atanu

As the son of a pastor, Matthew McKay has lived a sheltered life. He has little exposure to anything beyond the Boston mega-church where his father works and the local Christian school he attends. However, when his family decides to start a new church in Melbrook, Massachusetts, his entire life is turned upside down. He will now have to deal with small town living and the chaos of public education, yet none of that compares to his biggest challenge: there is something evil in his new home. Nightmares, ghostly visions and strange noises become a regular part of his life. But his parents refuse to accept that there is something dangerous among them, clinging instead to their strict religious teachings. So, Matthew is forced to seek answers on his own with the help of a Wiccan girl who becomes his new best friend--his secret best friend. Together, they will hunt down the truth until Matthew and his family are finally forced to come face-to-face with an evil that has been lurking for over three hundred years, an evil that will lead them into a disturbing crisis-of-faith.

My grandmother had a huge influence on me: her unconditional love filled my heart: from her. I learned about music, gardening, cooking and more. Mammy, as I called her, was a retired stock broker with many elderly clients. She would make boiled custard and put it in a quart glass bottle. With this she would take a bouquet of exhibition roses to take with us. Then we would go to the nursing homes where the clients lived. I would stand at the foot of the patients bed and sing.On one of these visits, the woman cried. This upset me that I had made her cry, until my grandmother explained that they were tears of joy. I didn't know that you could cry from happiness.I think it was a combination of my grandmother's example and my love for her that made me go into the field of gerontology. Mammy's last seven years were spent in a nursing home. She had fallen and broken her hip. However, she was so crippled by arthritis that they couldn't mend it. So she was lifted from the bed to the chair and back everyday. She never left her room.Although I visited her as often as possible, bringing my three to sing to her, I was deeply affected and disheartened by her "incarceration".Several years ago, I gave a talk entitled ' Caring for Caregivers' for the women's club at The Chautauqua Institution. It is the oldest one in the country. It was very well attended. They later told me that it was the largest crowd they had ever had in over one hundred years! I was so moved that as I walked the half mile back to my lodging, I thought up a poem. Then I created another, and another, until in a few days I had ten. I didn't plan to do this, they just came to me. Over the years I have written over fifty to be shared with others who are caregivers themselves. I am now a caregiver too, caring for my ninety two year old husband. We have a blended family and have been married for over forty one years.I think that these little poems will strike a chord with people who are caring for a loved one whether they are adult children or a spouse. The demands and pressures are the same. This book is a must-have for any person who is receiving care from a caregiver, or is a caregiver themselves. Judith's poems speak from the heart.
