As the mother Wes Moore, whose memoir about overcoming the obstacles that face a fatherless young black man was a huge bestseller, Joy is often asked: How did you do it? How do you balance parenting, work and self-care when you don't have a partner to pick up the slack? How do you connect with a child when you can't always be there? Joy's answer is "presence." We can't always be physically there for our children, but the power of presence can help us to be a voice in the back of their minds that guides them through difficult times. In MY PRIDE, MY JOY, Moore explores seven pillars of presence--heart, faith, mind, courage, financial freedom, values, and connectedness--that all parents can use to be positively influence their children. Using compelling stories from women who have been there and practical advice on everything from savings accounts to mindfulness, this book is a compassionate look at what it takes to raise great kids.

Major shift in a man's vision accompanies the aftermath of experiential picture-frames. The assembling of tomographic cross sections of an individual's impressions may even result in philosophical transactions. The poems in this collection, arranged in a reverse order in the alphabetical sense, exemplify the fusion of personal practices with professional and general ethical constructs.

A Third Collection of 50 Poems: In this randomized mix of poems, the author correlates and ties the broken strings of continuity in storing mental pictures. Lack of order is the precursor to creating order, which is the quintessence of cultural underpinnings and the so called discipline. These poems reflect the author's in depth analytical-stitching of experiences with a philosophical bent.

In this collection of essays about the nuances of the Malayalam language, with a special accent on the aspects of prose writing, the author elaborates upon the need for adhering onto pure grammatical rules in writing, to maintain a uniform, globally acceptable communication pattern. Most of these essays dwell upon the established and accepted conventions sustained by educated writers, and are embellished with some original ideas along with several collated information from many time-honored books on grammar. The scope of some of these essays is extended beyond the realm of grammatical issues, and transcends into the domain of creative writing.
