What Gives Life Meaning? By Judith Fein Source : psychologytoday A Personal Perspective: Here’s what people say around the world. I have been thinking a lot lately about how much media noise comes into my life every day and how much online reading and learning I do. I have also pondered why I sometimes spend 12 hours writing at my computer. I wonder if the reading and writing are a distraction, or if it gives meaning to my life. When I am traveling to other cultures and countries, I often ask questions because we can learn from other ways of seeing the world. Over the past few years, I asked people I met about what really matters to them and gives their lives meaning and purpose. In Tunisia, my friend Rabii, a film and TV composer, said that what matters to him is music. He lives it and breathes it; it ...

SUNDAY CHOICE – HAPPY GRANDPARENTS DAY- 30. 11. 2022 – By Charles Schokman “Grandparents are blessings from God who are irreplaceable. They are angels in disguise who are always looking over their kids and grandkids. As the times are evolving, people are losing touch of their tradition. Likewise, people are not realizing the importance of Grandparents. We see how they are mistreating them. While this happens in some cases, in most cases people love their grandparents. You ask a kid about who pampers them the most, most of them will answer saying their grandparents. Similarly, for grandparents, they are adored by their grandkids. They love us unconditionally and pamper us endlessly. However, they also correct our mistakes and scold us when necessary. Thus, we see how grandparents are great blessings not everyone is fortunate enough to have. Grandparents are True Blessings. ...

Poverty – the scourge that has the World in its’ grip – By Noor Rahim Almighty God created our lives in equality Born free & live free was the concept renowned That now remains in the animal domain without much rivalry But we Homo sapiens build in their domain – chased & killed But “live free” is the portion that affects our lives quality For God helps those who help themselves is the edict Without means, there is no sustenance of life, is the cry This requires the shedding of sweat and toil to a life, as desired But this needs determination & will to lead a life comfortably The fortunate are born with wealth inherited And to most, earning as they go along in accordance with their ability But made aware of the saying “Cut your coat, according to the cloth” is what is said But to ...

“COUNTRY GOSPEL” – by Des Kelly As with every other type of really beautiful Music it provides, here is yet another. “Country Gospel” has been quite possibly the first Music chosen by many top “Stars” who actually reached them, in the very difficult art of “Showbiz”, as we call it, and this particular song is no exception to the rule. “In the garden”, sung by T. Graham Brown, was supposed to have made Buck White, of the Country trio named “The Whites”, cry !, but on watching it, I noticed that it made many others quite emotional as well, and let me ensure my own readers that tears were not shed because Graham Brown could not sing. Although he did not reach the heights of the more famous Country “Stars”, Graham used his vocal prowess to captivate the audience around him, and believe me folks, there were quite a few ...

Life’s Last Leg……… – By Amar Deep Dixit Source : allpoetry.com You are lost in yourself, It’s you that you can’t find, You have done the wrong, What punishment you will give? You’re chasing your own shadow, Whom you are trying to overtake, You lived your life, And now you’re going to understand what is life . What ever you got from this world , The same you are going to return, Why you lived your life, Under the shadow of perspiration ? Why you always believed that this world is yours and every thing on it, You’re living in the unreal world. From the womb you came out and- Now you’re going to mix in soil, Again you are remembering your own identity, And trying to entwine with your past. Forget everything- You are going to be free from this world, By leaving this world, you will live in real ...
SUNDAY CHOICE I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5 ESV. “Sometimes life can just feel like too much. Too much to do. Too much to think about. Too much to process. At the same time, it can feel like it’s not enough. Not enough time in the day, energy in the body and money in the bank. Here’s the truth: Without Jesus, we don’t have enough. There is nothing that we can do without Him. Jesus tells us: “apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:5 ESV) This sounds extreme but here’s the good news; when we abide in Him, He also abides in us. Although we can do nothing without Him, that is never a concern for he that believes in ...

Why Don’t You Pause a Moment – To Stand & Stare, With Me? – By Noor Rahim Please do give a few moments of your precious time; and join me as I stand and stare, at Mother Natures’ Wonders – just for the asking and absolutely free of costs or encumbrances. Yes, one does understand that one’s life is so full of tasks, arduous and onerous, that one needs to undertake and complete, in a World that deems it so, for ones’ livelihood and family commitments – though at times these commitments are confined to the immediate family circles. Hence, time is of the essence and one does not have a spare moment to “Stand & Stare” – perhaps only at the two-legged gentry that may pass your way. All else being of little or no value; unless of course it is to one’s advantage and future utilization – ...

Crossing The Jordan – by Lakshman Navaratne Dust Divine Scripture is only for those who trust in a sovereign Creator. It has no value to anyone who remotely trusts in human logic, rooting our beginning to the Apes, and blindly branding humans as mammals who originally were Apes. Thus, believing our ancestry stemming to the Apes. Science has defined human life as “the evolved Intelligent Apes” We humans, born in the last 200 years, who are still breathing oxygen on earth, are led to believe all science is intelligence acquired knowledge, which has become the snare put before the unsuspecting humans by the academia, stemming to Intelligence of the Phylum Mammalian. Scripture vehemently documents; we did not originate from the Apes. We were made from “Dust “and made Divine by the Creator of the universe. [A] An Apostolic Christian living today on earth, who has received the Baptism of Pentecost, ...
