This is a sharing of a story, my story. Throughout all of history, the most ancient knowing has been carried forward through the telling of our stories. The fact that this is my story is of no particular importance, it just happens to be the story I know best. The writing itself became a journey. I traveled deep into a valley of fear and doubt, and then found my way out. On the way, I was reminded of my life purpose-to be a spirit whose light shines also on the path of others, poking them in the butt with a "Go for it! This life is yours here and NOW." However, my transformation is not a one-s...
This is a sharing of a story, my story. Throughout all of history, the most ancient knowing has been carried forward through the telling of our stories. The fact that this is my story is of no particular importance, it just happens to be the story I know best. The writing itself became a journey. I traveled deep into a valley of fear and doubt, and then found my way out. On the way, I was reminded of my life purpose-to be a spirit whose light shines also on the path of others, poking them in the butt with a "Go for it! This life is yours here and NOW." However, my transformation is not a one-sided proposition. There are over six billion people living on this planet. Each of us is able to read the signs and find the courage to create an amazing life story if only we will. Together, we can discover the nature of this universe as it reveals itself to us and through us. When I was writing this book at my home in beautiful downtown Vancouver, an eagle often circled the building in which I lived, visiting many times. Then one day when I was at a low point and doubting my direction, a coyote also came to visit. Sitting on the grass across the street, it looked toward me as if encouraging me on. City workers came a few days later and placed a sign directly in front of that building-"Warning! Coyote has been spotted here." So, led by the spirit of coyote, eagle and the many other guides of the universe, I was able to complete this tale. Its primary message is about following the call of my body, mind and spirit. On my journey, I agreed to fully own my place in life wherever I happened to be. Although shadows sometimes hid the path, I rejoiced on my way to the sun and the bright peaks beyond. My wish is that you will be entertained, and perhaps even inspired, by my intentional walk. Even though the experiences I describe may be difficult for some to believe, others will know of what I write. Whether this story brings you comfort or not, my hope is that you will question your own experience to the same degree you may question mine. As a wise old monk once told me, "Just take from this what works for you and leave the rest with us." I invite you to do just that. Everything that I write is based on my actual experience but, in some cases, composite characters facilitate the telling and protect the identity of others. For example, my dear friends in Burma are ruled by a cruel military that would not hesitate to cause them harm. Their true identities must not be revealed. If any good comes of this situation, let it be increased public awareness of what is unacceptable and must come to an end. I pray every day that a resolution may take place without the loss of more lives. I have endeavored to recreate each scene in the book with as much accuracy as the veils of time and memory would permit. Although certain details may have been distorted, know that the main emphasis is still the overall message. In the end, this is all that matters.
