What is a Dream?
What is a dream? To have a dream is to wonder. It's the spark of imagination that glows bright. A calling that can be heard like roaring thunder. An expression of your soul's light. What is a dream to you?
Gitanjali
Every soul longs for a communion with the ultimate truth and when this longing takes the form of vehement devotion, what comes out of it is a soulful melody of endless songs. The depth of love and devotion, Tagore has for the divine, is poured into Gitanjali, which is a prayer for the ennoblement of humanity. The central theme of Gitanjali is devotion, and its motto is 'I am here to sing thee songs' (No. XV). Gitanjali is sometimes compared to the Book of Psalms and explores the personal relationship between the poet and divinity. The manner of singing God's praises, the willingness to selfless surrender and exhortations to fellow human beings for shunning worldly desires, are sub-themes of these songs. Tagore's language is neither complicated nor rife with allusions or marred with the figurative or metaphorical use of words or expressions. The simplicity of old English and minimal linguistic variations contribute towards the wide readership of Gitanjali, and it is, precisely, what you need to revive your spirit and get you closer to yourself.
Children of the Reverie Hour II
"Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle," ( 2 Thessalonians 2:15). Throughout history, in every story, each hero has a quest and that quest begins with a want for better or just the hero being completely lost after something shaking has occurred. In the essence of it all, they find themselves. They find this greater, stronger person they never knew they were and when that happens they are faced with a new villain, worse than their first adversary, but the journey has molded and formed them to be strong enough to defeat this villain. If you think of your life, your wins and loses. They're not really losses, they are just pieces of training. When you win, you only smile when you have defeated the villain. God must send us all on that very same journey that David had to go on. From zealous, to broken, to king. If you are going to rule someday, then God knows you have to be trained mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. You have to be controlled, not easily shaken by a tiny change in the tides. If a tide goes one way, your ship goes that way too, even if it means destruction. No. God doesn't want you to be a ruler like that. And if taking you through this cave, dragging you around this bend, forcing you to stare your fears in the face, then He will do it.Along this quest, though He will be there and at times He might pretend to leave you just to see if you will be faithful. You will want to break. Want to split and do all the above but keep going because of your frustration, but there is always God still there reminding you of those who came before, who are still cheering for you when Satan is in your ear telling you to end it here and now, knowing that if he can get you to do that, you will be one less person he has to worry about. Through your tears, crying, and screaming, knowing that you could end it all here and now is anything in this world really worth that much, when it shall all pass away in a blink of an eye? Should you compromise your destiny for something that won't even have value in another few years? All good things must come to an end and that is a guarantee because God knows if you became too comfortable in this life you wouldn't care about the afterlife with Him. You wouldn't care to always keep moving and you would become sanitary and dirty like ponds and God doesn't need a pond for his spirit to dwell in but a forever moving river. By the end of this life, you will be a river, flowing like the Amazon River with life and giving life.

Chosen
In life, we face certain circumstances that can be so overwhelming there seems to be no hope. We all may face betrayal even by our own blood, such as the lack of love and validation on this earth, which can put us in a dark place. But with Christ in our hearts, we find hope that no matter what we go through, we can do all things through him. The poems included in this book are filled with the hope we find in Jesus Christ. The author describes how God took her out of two very abusive relationships--an abusive relationship with her mother and an abusive marriage. Some of the poems just express a romantic side, like her conversations with the Lord. God's love can transform us in a way that we could never imagine. Through Jesus Christ, we find who lives within us and the person whom God created us to be. She hopes that by reading this, you, too, can find that hidden treasure God put inside of you.The cover and images of this work was painted by the artist: Maribel JuarezIG: mari.bellarte012mmamcd4@yahoo.comLove never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.--1 Corinthians 13:7 (NLT)

Who Has the Key to Lockdown?
We believe that stories have the power to heal oneself a local community and, dare I say it, humanity. Stories also have the power to destroy and seeing how the mental health struggle was a real thing during the pandemic, we decided to run our first competition. This book is the result of that. In March 2021, we posted in a couple of writing websites, a local library and on our very small social media accounts the call for the children and teenagers aged 4 to 17. Suddenly, we received almost one hundred pieces from all over Australia.We hope you enjoy and respect these young authors feelings and craft as they have generously opened their heart so that others could heal.
