Book review of Grant Lord's 'About Goldfish — The Ultimate Guide to Care and Breeding'

Posted: 12-Nov-2021   Reposted: 03-Jun-2022


Are goldfish your favorite pets? I love these beautiful, peaceful creatures that quickly instill a deep sense of tranquility when you watch them move here and there inside your aquarium. (Remember the last time you had to wait outside your doctor’s/dentist’s consulting room?).

Kept correctly, goldfish can live up to 10 years in your home aquarium but you need to avoid many faults in caring for them else you may end up unknowingly killing them early on in their life with you. Read this book to be a successful keeper and to shower your love and care on your fish pets.

Remember, it's tough to live by your moral code. 'Open Wounds Tell A Story: Anecdotes' by Antonio Rosario Ortiz makes that clear!

According to the well-known adage, “He who stands for nothing falls for anything.” It's about values and whether values are important to you in life, because if you choose to live by your values, you'll have to fight a tough battle against those who don't.


This book seeks to arm you with wisdom if soldiering on with values is what you prefer, unheeding of the pain and wounds.

Douglas R. Brown honors first responders in his book 'A Firefighter Christmas Carol And Other Short Stories'

Posted: 19-Oct-2021   Reposted: 03-Jun-2022



"The brave die never, though they sleep in dust: Their courage nerves a thousand living men." (Quote by Minot Judson Savage.) That's how our brave first responders(*), some of whom have selflessly laid down their lives to defend and protect us in the line of duty, live on in our hearts and continually inspire us to do the same should the need arise at any time in our lives.

This book is a collection of six great stories celebrating the lives of first responders and their circumstances. As we know, their fearless actions in the face of extreme dangers leave many scarred with Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), and PTSD. It's permanent and they have to live with it for life! And some lapse into other mental illnesses in the process.

Let's remember and be grateful to them for their brave and selfless lives.

(*) First responders are police, firefighters, 911, rescue and emergency services staff, etc. who are the first to attend to us in emergencies. We love them!

See if these stories inspire you?

Review of the book 'The Printed' by Cameron Fitzgerald posted

Posted: 14-Oct-2021   Reposted: 04-Jun-2022

All the signs of the world's decline and decay are around us: the lost battle to global warming, natural resources (particularly drinking water) becoming scarce, many kinds of environmental pollution, a rash of pandemics and killer diseases occurring at frequencies never heard before, and so on. Govs are finding it hard to cope and are trying desparate measures to stem the speed at which were plunging into destruction. (Note: Destruction cannot be averted, it's only the speed at which we are approaching it that Govs are trying to contain!).


Religions, have been proclaiming the doom of the world for long. Now scientists and rational thinkers agree. In this scenario, can we expect the Bible's predictions about religious persecution to begin in the not-too-distant future? The author believes it's true.

In this book, in a fresh, surprisingly beautiful story form, the author portrays what he envisions the religious, particularly Christians, will have to suffer in future at the hands of an anti-religion world.
