Never Letting Go, by Mark Anthony, Oxford educated attorney and psychic medium, begins with the words, "When you die, you really don't. The body may cease to function, but the soul is an immortal living spirit that continues to exist beyond physical life." Starting with this information, and continuing throughout his book, Mark Anthony gives the reader information that can help bring peace of mind and healing to those who are grieving the loss of a loved one.
This book helps others on their journey through grief. In this book the author describes faith as the most important tool for healing grief. Many of us would have tried to cope up with the feelings of loneliness and abandonment some or the other times in our lives. This book helps us understand that we are never alone spiritually. When someone dies, the relationship with that person is transformed from physical to spiritual.
It is enlightening, comforting, and inspiring for anyone and everyone who is searching for a message of hope after losing a loved one.

Feel the Future
Increasing prices of Petrol
When petrol prices are increasing then the manufacturing of petrol cars will be reduced. And battery cars will be introduced. An alternate of petrol would be found out to overcome the situation.
Problem of petrol in our country is increasing day by day. Exploration of petrol is very less in our country and we import it from outside to fulfill our needs. If petrol prices will not be regulated on time than it would be very hard for a normal family to survive.
Prices of petrol are touching sky in today’s time and if it remains the same than living will be very difficult.
Economic condition of our country will be in bad situation if fuel prices will go high continuously. In future people will prefer to go on foot instead of vehicle.
-Ramkrishan Paliya, PHE V
India’s Export and import will be affected by this kind of situation.
Common man face the problem when this kind of situation will happen as common man have not too much disposable income or any other source of income to overcome on the increasing fuel prices.
If demand of fuel will increase than people will try out new ways of exploration to fulfill the gap of demand and supply. All machines which are running from petrol will remain idle and people will be unemployed.
People will use bicycle in future instead of vehicle if prices will hike regularly in the same manner as we are seeing today.
