Publisher Description:
"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
