I once heard that we don't have to allow our past to dictate our future and who we choose to become. That is easier said than done as many of us seem to repeat the vicious circle of life that we grew up in and experienced, and it may be the only life one knows to live. But there is the Other Side of Heaven on Earth, and once you find true love, the unconditional love of God the father nothing is impossible. This is a biography of the trial and tribulations that allowed me to turn from a victim into a victor. I am a first-generation Australian born to Greek parents who migrated here in the 1960s. My father passed away, and my mother, who was deserted by family, raised her three children on her own. I in turn migrated back to Greece when I was eighteen years old for five years, only to end up returning back home to Australia with two kids in my arms and a broken marriage. "The Other Side of Heaven on Earth" is about a life transformation of an abused young girl from a migrant family who enters into womanhood only to become a battered wife. She ends up being abandoned with her two children, overcoming and conquering mental, emotional, and physical dysfunction by her own spiritual and supernatural experiences that lead her to true love and a destiny that surpassed her wildest imagination and dreams.

'With charm, erudition, humour and passion, the world's favourite natural history broadcaster documents some of his expeditions from the late 1950s onwards' Sunday Express Following the success of the original Zoo Quest expeditions, the young David Attenborough embarked on further travels in a very different part of the world. From Madagascar and New Guinea to the Pacific Islands and the Northern Territory of Australia, he and his cameraman companion were aiming to record not just the wildlife, but the way of life of some of the indigenous people of these regions, whose traditions had never been encountered by most of the British public before. From the land divers of Pentecost Island and the sing-sings of New Guinea, to a Royal Kava ceremony on Tonga and the ancient art of the Northern Territory, it is a journey like no other. Alongside these remarkable cultures he encounters paradise birds, chameleons, sifakas and many more animals in some of the most unique environments on the planet. Written with David Attenborough's characteristic charm, humour and warmth, Journeys to the Other Side of the World is an inimitable adventure among people, places and the wildest of wildlife. 'Abundantly good' TLS 'A wondrous reminder of Attenborough's pioneering role . . . full of delightful tales' Daily Express 'An adventure that sparked a lifetime's commitment to the planet' The Lady 'Attenborough is a fine writer and storyteller' Irish Times

What happens when a suicide crosses over? Where do they go? "Readers, I crossed over into the spirit world 25 years ago, having ended my life prematurely by what you call on Earth suicide. You would call me a suicide victim. I have a lot to say, having been here now for this long and having searched all of that time for someone there on Earth to communicate with. Someone to bring back the knowledge that I now have access to and share that knowledge with persons, like the person I was while alive, who have lost hope and feel so heavily burdened by life that only death itself seems like a solution. I also have much that I want to share with families of persons who have ended their lives early. While I reside now, here in the spirit realm, I have a greater understanding of the mechanics of life on Earth. Why we choose to come down to Earth to begin with, how we allow ourselves to get caught up in the world of illusion, and how we can easily lose touch with the true essence of who we really are while living on the Earth; which is what happens all too often and escalates to the point of a desire to end life before its perfect time. This is the collection of information from the spirit known as George who ended his life early while on the Earth and seeks to impart a greater knowledge to others who are contemplating the same fate."
