If Walls Could Talk


Book Description

If Walls Could Talk: Some Need To Be Silenced But Some Speak Out Loud By: Bernard Mavritte Ever since human beings have known how to build structures with walls, a ceiling and some kind of roof, the walls within those structures have witnessed so much. If they were animate objects, with eyes, a mouth and ears, they could say so much that could not be constrained within all the books upon the earth. Those walls have witnessed the good, the bad, the joys, and the sorrows. They have seen things that those who live within the parameter of the walls would love to share with others, and yet many occurrences that should never be revealed, the deep secrets of our lives we are ashamed to reveal to others. From our entrance on this earth, until we depart, the walls have seen it all. In this autobiography memoir, Bernard Mavritte reveals the good and the bad, the joys and the sorrows in his own life, a story that is full of life itself. He shares how God has opened so many doors for him, bringing him through his many trials. If the walls in his life could talk, some of them would need to be silenced, but some would need to speak loudly.




If These Walls Could Talk


Book Description

Home is where "House Beautiful's" heart is, and this second engaging collection of the magazine's "Thoughts of Home" column pays tribute to that special place. These first person essays capture the nostalgia for Grandmother's farmhouse, the giddy pleasures of that first apartment, the recovery from the loss of a beloved abode. Author Edna O'Brien leads us through her adored childhood home in County Clare. Christopher Buckley's "Foggy Bottom Blues" amusingly recounts his mishap-ridden relocation to Washington, D.C. From Patrick Dunne's reminiscences of junkyard picking in New Orleans to Sally Ryder Brady's story of watching her family's Vermont house bulldozed to the ground, these essays remind us that not only is there no place like home, but that no two are alike.




If Walls Could Talk Will They Tell of My Abuse


Book Description

After hearing her friends speak, saying that their male friend had been abused by his wife, Marla asked, "Can men get abused too?" Kelly shouted out, "I knew it! I knew it!" Marla dropped her head down, and Kelly said, "I knew that you were carrying a lot of baggage. You have been in an abusive relationship, haven't you?" Marla dropped her head down. Kelly walked over to where Marla was sitting and lifted her head up in her hand, tears running down Marla's face. Kelly said, "Don't hold your head down. I was you at one time, and now I'm a survivor. People would hear and see that man beat me, and not one time would they help me. I ask the good Lord plenty of times what I did wrong to be treated like this, and you know what he said? He said I did nothing – nothing wrong. And I packed my bag the next week and left while he was at work. Marla said in a low voice, "That's what I did. I left while he was at work."
