THE MEANING OF THE WORD
Author : Roslyn Ross
I use the word Spiritual a lot.
I define myself as seeking to live a spiritual life.
Spiritual is the word which most seems to reflect my eclectic set of beliefs and philosophy of life.
It's a word which expresses the sacred without being religious. By that I mean a life where I have a lot of time for God and little or no time for religion.
Religion can of course be spiritual but often it is not. And spirituality can be religious but it does not need to be.
For me reacting to life from a spiritual perspective means that I see everything, and I mean everything, as having purpose and meaning as part of my spiritual growth. Nothing happens by chance and good can come out of everything. It is of course far more complex than that. And yet, at the same time, incredibly simple.
Having explored many religions in my life I finally decided to stick with God and stay away from religion. Hence I began to use the word spiritual a lot. So what do I mean? I have started to ask myself that question.

They find themselves in the middle of a brief affair that catches them both unawares.

is it just me or is everything great?
Author : Geoff Tibballs
Publisher :
Michael O'Meara (distributed by Bookwise International)
Reviewer : Roslyn Ross
If laughter is the best medicine then we should all be cheering every time a book is published which slots into the ‘humour’ category.
Is it just me or is everything great ? By Geoff Tibballs certainly slots into that category and while he is a Brit and the ‘jokes’ have a British flavour, there’s still enough for a good giggle or even a belly laugh at times.
With a name like Tibballs, he probably had to turn to humour as a profession. There is no denying that he has a point. Geoff Tibballs thinks there is just too much moaning in this life and if we all just changed our view and saw the ‘cup as half full’ instead of ‘half empty’ we would all be a lot happier.
