‘THE BEST things in life are not things.’
This realisation has caused many Oban Times readers to come to Argyll or to stay in Argyll. Like people everywhere we have to make a living but many have also discovered that there is more to life than material well-being.
The natural environment, human relationships and opportunities for adventure are dimensions of life in which many of us find fulfilment. There is also the realm of the spirit. There has been a strong drive in modernity to minimize the spiritual dimension of life. Even Christian faith, if it survives at all, seems to be more about the rational and the ritual than about the spiritual.
