Publisher Description:
GOLDEN DAWN (a new book being written, as life unfolds) Perhaps the story is telling the story? Everything in the book could have happened... and perhaps it did "Life is God's novel; so let Ultimate Source write it, as it unfolds..." - me (as inspired by the words of Isaac Bashevis Singer) "And at the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time." - TS Eliot in 'Four Quarters' Golden Dawn Click on http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=71UQWJBSeH8 A song (great) by Barbara Streisand shared by "totally unmusical" craig ************* GOLDEN DAWN: A brand new book Now how did we arrive at a Golden Dawn? It's a very long and complicated story (and hard to comprehend)... but if you wish, we can start at the beginning... Prologue Prologue It was one day in the year 1961, whilst driving on the long journey home to Cape Town after the South African Grand Prix in East London (a city that lies on South Africa's East Coast), that the young boy told his father that Jim Clark would one day be the champion driver of the world. The young boy was in a bad mood, because the young Clark had beaten his hero, Stirling Moss. And for the next few years the young South African boy followed the rising Scot star 's ascending career with great interest and pride. So that the new "shooting star" eventually usurped the place of the now retired old hero, Moss after his near fatal accident at Goodwood, UK...until it too was tragically extinguished in a minor race at Hockenheim, Germany in 1968. And that night the young boy lay on his bed and read the race program over again and again... then he fell asleep and dreamt in peace. One day... From Stirling: A Story of Hope and a Boy's Dream Kindle Edition] available at http: //www.amazon.com/dp/B00H1N6X1Y Also available as a paperback at Amazon # 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 devoid of hope... "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' and from Writing into the Light by craig lock Writing into the Light is available as an e-book at http: //www.amazon.com/Writing-into-Light-Stirling-Prize-ebook/dp/B00GMO1P9S/ and in paperback at http: //www.amazon.com/Writing-into-Light-beautiful-tranquil/dp/1493735586/
