About the Book

"People speak glibly about life changing moments. Some truly qualify. You propose marriage and are accepted. You hear, 'You're hired' or 'You're fired' and your future shifts instantly. The doctor says 'malignant' (or something else life-changing) and everything is different. But anyone who has ever lived through it will tell you: It is profoundly shattering to learn, in one instant, that everything you thought was true about a loved one (my words: or perhaps your own life) is actually a lie. (Your entire world is turned upside down - what you thought about yourself, and what gave meaning to your life). The world rocks on its axis; when it is finally steady again, you are in a strange place that resembles, but is totally unlike the place you were in just a moment earlier." - Diana B Henriques from 'Wizard of Lies; Bernie Madoff and the Death of Trust' A story of renewal and transformation: a transformation of heart. Eternal truths. True or not Possibly! Hope for a new beginning - one not divided by the past but with hope for the future. In a phrase, A NEW HEART. "I'm gonna write till I drop!" For a bit of "wacky" humour click on http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogPZ5CY9KoM Monty Python on novel writing * DEDICATION For Gareth and Sean, you "guys" are the greatest joy in my life... and yes, you too M for producing them. FOR MY DEARLY BELOVED SONS "Watching children grow is like threatening the ivy to climb the garden wall. You wait for it to happen you hurry it along with love. But still you're disappointed at giving someone life enough to walk off on your own and not be carried in your arms. You never turn your back - not once, and yet one day they've grown apart or taller. It's all the same. Polly put the kettle on, we'll all have tea. Giving love to children has made us older overnight. - Rod McKune ."I love you in the very special way that I've written about in these pages." # A TRUE story of renewal and transformation: a transformation of heart. Eternal truths. Hope for a new beginning - one not divided by the past but with hope for the future. In a phrase, A NEW HEART. "To all of us who believe love rules, stand up and let it shine." * About the Author Writers challenge themselves and their readers in new ways, They find new niches. I want to continually test my own writing "limits", the "boundaries of my imagination." * And whenever c came to a cross roads in his life about which path to take, he meditated and prayed and followed the voice within, the indwelling Holy Spirit. What would Jesus do (WWJD) in this situation? Then he usually followed, not his mind (logic), but his heart, as well as the highest thought, the highest possible choice. So c chose to write about the road less travelled, the path of the pursuit of PEACE. Through attempting in some small way to break down barriers and divisions between peoples, one mind, one heart, one tiny step at a time. And every great journey starts with a single small step. So let the story begin... # # PROLOGUE A TALE OF TWO CITIES It was a beautiful spring day in September in the year 1988, the sky overhead a clear blue with not a cloud in sight. Desperately trying to find some answers to what was happening in their life, the middle-aged couple had just come from the neurologist in Perth, Western Australia. Shattered, they walked out of the 2nd floor building back to the bright red new Holden company car parked in busy Mill Point Road overlooking the shimmering Swan river. Feeling so alone in a new country, they felt shattered at hearing the news, not knowing where their lives were headed. Traumatized they didn't know where to turn... or what to do next... just dev
About the Author: The Author on the 'Writing Journey': "I 'work' with ideas...and words are my tools." "I write because I simply HAVE to" "Writers help readers to see the world differently." "I write because something inside myself, inner and unconscious forces me to. That is the first compulsion. The second is one of ethical and moral duty." "I write about and believe in the resilience of humanity- I truly believe in the triumph of the human spirit." "I really value words and the power of them to communicate effectively; so in my various stories try to illustrate and then let readers draw their own conclusions about a certain scenario, as well as the characters searching for their own values in an increasingly complex social and political landscape. However, I do feel an obligation to give a complete picture of the situation, which is often not a clear-cut 'black or white' issue (as in South Africa). I never want to proscribe how people should think and feel my only duty as a writer is to be totally honest." - craig "I love to write about, share stories of the resilience and courage of ordinary (what's that?) people." In his various writings Craig strives in some small way to break down and economic, social, cultural and religious barriers. Craig believes that whilst we should celebrate our differences, what we share in the form of our common humanity is way more important than what divides us. Craig believes in (and loves) sharing information and insights to try to make some difference in this world: to help and especially encourage people along life's magical journey to live their dreams and be all they can be... and that brings him the greatest joy. He truly believes in the great potential of people to be all they can be an become. Craig is currently "working" on 'Endless Possibilities, Far and Great Horizons' - true inspiring stories of the human condition in overcoming seemingly impossible odds. In his life mission Craig hopes to encourage, motivate and inspire people to be their best through realising their full potentials and live their very best lives. Craig believes in the great potential of every human being in the journey of life and loves to encourage people to share their individual (and guiding) spirits, so that they become all that they are CAPABLE of being. The various books that Craig "felt inspired to write" are available at: http: //www.amazon.com/-/e/B005GGMAW4 All proceeds go to needy and underprivileged children - MINE!
