This family of eagles have already overcome the problem of weak eagle shells and leaving their home in the big city of Philly. I want this book to be an inspiration to children from the early parts of their lives. Shining Spirit is my way of describing some deep, emotional, and devastating parts of my own young life. Shine is a deep and inward place inside some children, but it is not called shine, yet. We all need that special someone, or to talk with God about our own souls. Parents hold the special keys to their special children. This book is about more than a new set of wings. The people in our lives all have a part of life that we would rather not acknowledge, some worse than others. The difference is, for the most part, we can see Shine's disability, all of us can be Shine. Shine has something that wasn't so far down inside him, something he started to utilize almost from birth. God will reach us if we open ourselves to His word and have that shining spirit inside also. Everyone can reach inside and become a better person because of God. We can do nothing of ourselves. I have tried to do my best without God, it didn't work. May God Bless you and all your loved ones. Matt. 28:18-20

The only dictionary of its kind, this greatly expanded second edition lists objects, concepts, traits and situations ancient and modern and gives their appropriate symbols. A companion to Symbolism: A Comprehensive Dictionary (2012), this volume presents symbols and their referents in reverse association (but is not simply a reconfiguring of information). Examples: a symbol for "hell" is descending stairs; an attribute of Saint Benedict is a raven; joy after sorrow is signified by the gemstone amber. Ethnic, literary, artistic, religious, heraldic, numerological, folkloric, occult and psychological usages are included.
