For over thirty years, Old Second and Bao Mei have cobbled together a meagre existence in New York City's Chinatown. But unlike other couples, these two share an unusual past. In rural Fuzhou, before they emigrated, they frequented The Workers' Cinema: a theatre where gay men cruised for love. While classic war films played, Old Second and his fellow countrymen found intimacy in the privacy of the Workers' Cinema's screening rooms. Elsewhere, in the box office, Bao Mei sold movie tickets to closeted men - guarding their secrets and finding her own happiness with the projectionist.

Aphra Behn was a prolific and well-established poet and playwright but facts about her life remain scant and difficult to confirm. What can safely be said is that Aphra Behn is regarded as a key English playwright and a major figure in Restoration theatre. Her poetry is now far more appreciated and seen as a breakthrough for women of the 17th Century and beyond. Her first play, ‘The Forc’d Marriage’, was staged in 1670, and thereafter many followed, including her later comic works, which were more commercially successful.

Positive affirmations and mantras are the key to a steady and upgoing spiritual life. They are a crucial aspect of our daily practice and complement easily a steady meditation practice, yoga practice, or prayer practice. The positive affirmations can be used by any person, no matter if he is spiritual or not. They work by rewiring our brains with the positive message that they hold. Mantras, on the other hand, are short phrases that can be repeated in our minds, so we can clean our psyche of misconceptions and behavioral patterns that keep us stuck in our lives.

I have started the practice of acceptance more as a necessity than a spiritual pursuit. I was in a situation where I really needed to change my life and the things around me, and I understood that only the practice of acceptance can get me out of my situation. As days and months passed by, I noted different passages from what I understood and after 2 years I compiled out of them the book that you are presently reading. There is not much to say about acceptance, so the book is not lengthy but rather compressed as information, but I made sure that I have explained every detail of the process I underwent.
