    Hannah is a spirited young girl faced with an important decision. When confronted with bullying, she only hesitates a moment before making her choice. In an age where bullying runs rampant in schools, playgrounds, and online, it is vital that children learn from an early age to stand up for themselves and others. If we do not inspire courage and teach kids to voice that bullying is unacceptable, injustice persists, even into high school, a cesspool of judgement against individuality with devastating consequences. Always Do Your Best tells an inspiring tale of bravery and heroism in the face of cruelty.

    Explore a fresh lens on human identity in 'Humans as Third Dimensional Beings', where the author introduces a unique dimension that sets Homo sapiens apart - the Third Human Dimension (THD). Traditionally viewed as bi-dimensional entities encompassing body and soul, this book ventures beyond, inspired by a rich blend of cultural insights, social science theories, and Islamic perspectives.Contrary to prevalent social science paradigms that label humans as Homo Oeconomicus, Homo Politicus, or Homo Sociologus, Professor Dhaouadi underscores a vital yet overlooked facet: Homo Culturus or the Third Dimensional Being. The philosopher and social scientist Herbert Marcuse once analysed 'one-dimensional man'. This work not only challenges social scientists for overlooking the Homo Culturus aspect but also critiques anthropologists, despite their focus on culture, for missing this crucial dimension.Highlighting the THD or the Homo Culturus is imperative for lending credibility to social sciences, especially when asserting the three Homos as fundamental aspects of human behavior. Dive into an enlightening discourse that re-evaluates human essence through the prismatic lens of culture, offering a novel conceptualization that enriches the understanding of our complex nature.

    The author's exploration uncovers writings about the remarkable ingenuity and creativity of God, who devised a means to disclose Himself to humankind. For despite extensive searching, the author found no rational alternative explanations. Moreover, prevailing concepts contradict scientific knowledge and lived experience - matter is not perpetual, and inanimate systems cannot create conscious beings capable of appreciation and intentionality. So who then instilled consciousness, if not a Grand Designer? Seeking this elusive truth proves challenging indeed. Yet God simplified humanity's hunt by establishing contact and even entering our world in person. To prepare people for His arrival, prophecies circulated foretelling the extraordinary events to come. And upon appearing among us, God asked of us only one thing: "Constantly seek the truth. Do not let blinders be put on your eyes. And remember that you will not find the truth without love."
