This modern life is like a treadmill. There is always a rush, always an agitation, always a search for something to make you feel happier. You are in a constant race to achieve, thinking that this is how you will feel happy and fulfilled. But you're wrong. Your achievements and relationships would be greater if you were present in what they do, not if you were doing more and grabbing more. You are overthinking, over-reacting, over-analyzing, over-stressing, and over-doing every little thing. Everything seems too much to manage, to cope with and you struggle to find peace, to become centered, to be yourself. It seems that you do anything except for the most important thing: living in the present, being IN the present moment. Your mind wanders all the time, here and there, like a little sparrow, chirping, and jumping and flying all over the place There is so much noise and agitation inside your mind and emotions that you would like a break, some space, quiet and calmness. In the same time, you want to get past the blockage you're having for a while, want a fresh start, a new beginning. What can you do? Meditate. Now. This book is a powerful tool for the modern era.

The spiritual world, your true destiny in heaven, is completely different to this world and when your sins are forgiven it is like crossing over from death into a new life. Even in this world we are able to comprehend something of the majesty and glory of heaven. This is because we all within us have a spiritual side to our nature. This important but generally unrecognized part of us acknowledges what is wrong with this fallen world and yet still survives. When we place our faith and trust in Jesus all of our sins will be forgiven.With Jesus as our guide we are changed into a new creature; our conscience cleared, our spirit renewed and uplifted and every part of us sanctified for useful service.Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Our Bible reading and quiet times are essential to challenge our thoughts and prayers, to direct our paths and adjust our lifestyles. We should all feel the sense of looking forward towards that wonderful future in ahead in heaven. Each day just being thankful to serve Jesus and learn what we can in the process.This is surely the most wonderful and beautiful gift of all.

"Meet the Artists" presents an extraordinary collaborative project between Jake and Dinos Chapman, George Condo and Paul McCarthy. It came about when the four artists were invited by the London arts agency, RS&A, to collaborate on the creation of eight paintings and a set of etchings over a period of one year. The project was commenced in March 2006, when one large canvas, one small canvas and one etching plate were delivered to each artist's studio. The collaborators were given a month to work before their paintings and etching plates were collected and rotated to the next artist in a prearranged sequence. Each canvas and etching plate rotated four times in total so that each participating artist had the chance to be first, second, third and fourth in the sequential makeup of a single painting and etching plate. An exquisite corpse for four of today's most interesting living artists.

"e;Why are you learning Zulu?"e; When Mark Sanders began studying the language, he was often asked this question. In Learning Zulu, Sanders places his own endeavors within a wider context to uncover how, in the past 150 years of South African history, Zulu became a battleground for issues of property, possession, and deprivation. Sanders combines elements of analysis and memoir to explore a complex cultural history.Perceiving that colonial learners of Zulu saw themselves as repairing harm done to Africans by Europeans, Sanders reveals deeper motives at work in the development of Zulu-language learning-from the emergence of the pidgin Fanagalo among missionaries and traders in the nineteenth century to widespread efforts, in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, to teach a correct form of Zulu. Sanders looks at the white appropriation of Zulu language, music, and dance in South African culture, and at the association of Zulu with a martial masculinity. In exploring how Zulu has come to represent what is most properly and powerfully African, Sanders examines differences in English- and Zulu-language press coverage of an important trial, as well as the role of linguistic purism in xenophobic violence in South Africa.Through one person's efforts to learn the Zulu language, Learning Zulu explores how a language's history and politics influence all individuals in a multilingual society.
