Everyone has people in their lives that challenge them to examine who they are and what matters. The words used to communicate thoughts and feelings can make or destroy not only someone's day but, over time, their sense of self and perception of self-worth. Words said, in a personal or professional context, can shape who we are, for better and unfortunately, also for worse.Each poem in this book by Dr. Laura A. Hawryluck explores the more difficult, yet common, interactions we have to build an understanding of personal strengths and resilience when faced with some of the more difficult moments of everyday life.For as we all get buffeted by people and events, the best coping strategy is to know who we are and remember the words that really matter.

When we struggle, we know ourselves best;Then we muddle through that inner test.Goblins, as we know them, are sinister, Menacing creatures who administerDark work of a dark lord, deep in our minds, When we sleep, in they creep, deep in our minds.Putting us to test, meddling without rest, Pitting us against our best, that's their quest.But what if, one of us entered their realm?And what if, one of theirs wanted our love?

Clues are given to some of the potions described by Shakespeare in his plays and the reader also is warned about plants that they would be wise to avoid.

Anno Domini: The Coming of the Messiah is the fourth novel by the author Peter Tallon and the first instalment of the Anno Domini trilogy. During the beginning of the reign of Augustus Ceasar, Rome had not long ended a civil-war and was restoring stability in the provinces of its empire. In what is now modern-day Israel and the city of Jerusalem there seemed to be an epi-centre of passive hostility. Perhaps the jewel of the empire, it garnered special dispensation and treatment from the imperial senate from its puppet vassal, King Herod - though his cruelty, paranoia and unending ego had created many an enemy amongst his people. In these tensions, find our story's hero, Centurion Lucius Veranius. Conflict has arisen from a fanatical organisation, the Zealots, in the aim to remove the Roman puppet Herod and his Imperial masters. However, their task is almost insurmountable, leaving much of their ambition resting on the unsuspecting shoulders of a new-born infant: the future King-of-the-Jews, the Messiah, Jesus. Anno Domini: The Coming of the Messiah is an ambitious tale of violence, conspiracy, intrigue and insurrection.
