“Nabil traces the image of his father through song. With growing fascination and heartbreak, he draws out meaning from the shadow of absence, and ultimately redefines what it means to be a family.” - Michelle Zauner, New York Times bestselling author of Crying in H Mart and Grammy nominated musician Japanese Breakfast A memoir about one man's journey to connect with his musician father, ultimately re-drawing the lines that define family and race. Throughout his adult life, whether he was opening a Seattle record store in the '90s or touring the world as the only non-white band member in alternative rock bands, Nabil Ayers felt the shadow and legacy of his father's musical genius, and his race, everywhere. In 1971, a white, Jewish, former ballerina, chose to have a child with the famous Black jazz musician Roy Ayers, fully expecting and agreeing that he would not be involved in the child's life. In this highly original memoir, their son, Nabil Ayers, recounts a life spent living with the aftermath of that decision, and his journey to build an identity of his own despite and in spite of his father’s absence. Growing up, Nabil only meets his father a handful of times. But Roy’s influence is strong, showing itself in Nabil’s instinctual love of music, and later, in the music industry—Nabil’s chosen career path. By turns hopeful--wanting to connect with the man who passed down his genetic predisposition for musical talent—and frustrated with Roy’s continued emotional distance, Nabil struggles with how much DNA can define a family… and a person. Unable to fully connect with Roy, Nabil ultimately discovers the existence of several half-siblings as well as a paternal ancestor who was enslaved. Following these connections, Nabil meets and befriends the descendant of the plantation owner, which, strangely, paves the way for him to make meaningful connections with extended family he never knew existed. Undeterred by his father's absence, Nabil, through sheer will and a drive to understand his roots, re-draws the lines that define family and race.

"What if that someone was you?" The question stunned her...She had always believed the problem was everyone else. Shannon had been so quick to blame others for her anger. She knew she was drowning in darkness and pain; being born with a learning disability made her feel defeated by life. She tried drinking heavily in order to quiet the demons. But the demons were her own voice, telling her she wasn't good enough, she wasn't smart enough, she didn't deserve good things in her life. Kicked out of college, Shannon took a leap of faith and started working in a nursing home; that's when her angels appeared and the miracle began. The insight and wisdom she gained from those elderly new friends led her on an inspiring journey of discovery and self-acceptance. Each of us has our own path. Some of us just need angels to help us find it.

The Sunshine Principle is this: that the greatest potential for healing occurs when we align our behaviors with God's natural, biological, and spiritual laws. We see this play out repeatedly in the Church's teachings, Sacred Scripture, and Sacred Tradition. Once the gimmicks, verbiage, and misunderstandings related to natural wellness are stripped away, we are left with a simple formula based on God's design for creation and His great love for us. Every detail of daily living-from what we eat to how we pray-is broken down to this principle, making healing possible, accessible, and joyful! This book is a testimony to the truth of God's love and attentiveness through His natural gifts, and a bridge for the seeker who wants to explore pharmaceutical alternatives without falling into the errors of New Age earth and body worship. It presents a simple plan to help gently restore an individual, familial, and cultural vision to that which God intended for His beloved people. The enemies of God want us sick, depressed, oppressed, anxious, numbed, confused, and defeated. Let us reject those things which dull the senses and make the body ill and the intellect more inclined to despair. Let us fight for joy, strength, hope, and clarity. God created this body to serve Him. Serviam!
