What does this mean? What does this stand for? I gave this book this title because it really reflects the spirit of my life. It starts by showing the love that I have for my wife and family, the love and devotion to my Lord and the Church, the concern for the ecology of nature, our beautiful country and planet which-in and on I’m fortunate to live. The species canine of which I am extremely fond and it ends by reflecting my great love for my country and the freedom for which it stands. Its’ military and the men and women who serve so well. It pays tribute to those who were willing to die to preserve this freedom. This is my 'Spirit of It All’.
