Thank You For My Life

When everything is gelid and dark, be in the present, follow the faint sounds in the distance of joy like laughter. Lean into the stillness. For there you shall find peace. For there you shall be grateful. Thank You For My Life.

About the Author

 

Kate’s book, Daddy’s Old Jumper, is inspired by a special little person named Darcy. Before Kate started writing, she worked as a scientist, wearing a white coat and mixing potions in a lab. That’s where she met Darcy’s mum, Jess, and they’ve been friends ever since!  After seeing Jess and her family go through a tough time, Kate felt inspired to write Daddy’s Old Jumper, a story about love that lasts,  even when someone is no longer with us.

Now, as a science communicator, Kate loves sharing stories—whether they’re about science or magical adventures like Darcy’s. When she’s not writing, Kate can be found baking sourdough, reading, or going for runs with her little dog, Noodle, who’s always by her side.

Identity

A Book Of Short Stories

We are commonly asked for proof of identity as if a number, date of birth, photo, or even fingerprint defines who we are. While these parameters are useful for security purposes, they do little to understand our background our nature, our behaviour, our values, nor how we might respond to unanticipated challenges.

In this book of 14 short stories, Leon examines the nature of value-based identity. Each story demonstrates individual responses to a variety of changing circumstances, including migration, career projection, sexuality, homelessness, retirement, and death.

Many of these short stories are based on the author’s real (albeit modified) encounters.

Finding Total Contentment

Becoming An Azure Warrior

This is my five books in one and it’s all revised and improved. I started writing in 1999 in Gaol I had attempted armed robbery with the intention of trying to save the world from global warming. I was found not guilty by reason of mental illness and that illness made me creative and I did time writing rhyme as I say. If you like poetry you’ll love my poems they’re well written and quite uplifting. This book can help with weight loss, addiction and mental health. It is written from a lived experience of a long slow recovery to sanity, spending 20 years as a mental health forensic patient overcoming bipolar, a chronic addiction and losing weight. In my last breach purely for personal use of cannabis I spent over 9 years in institutions without access to the community but I recovered with my resilience.

In 1999 I used the 9-Pointed Star on the cover of my first attempt at writing a book. Years later I found out that the 9-pointed star had also turned up in crop circles in 1999 when I first began using this powerful symbol. Probably the first people to use this symbol were the ancient Egyptians. I heard a voice one night say you have earned your star, a week later a friend said she could
see it above my head in my aura, I felt very content for a month or two. I was told when learning Rei-ki that it is an ascension symbol in the Baha’i faith the number nine represents perfection.

I call contentment the ultimate cure and I say state of mind is everything. I usually eat just one meal a day and don’t hunger that much anymore. Buddhist monks have been practising this life style for millennia, it is good for cell health, weight loss and fasting can be enlightening. You can find Total Contentment here and there it is a peaceful feeling not needing much and being happy and content in the moment. This book can raise your vibration and help you find enlightenment no matter what level you are at. It can take you from a rock bottom to a supreme high and you can go from being a sinner to being Saint like.

Is our true God just the Sun in the sky the light which sustains us? Is our higher power just our higher self? Are we more open to this energy when we are doing good? Are the Gods and prophets just master’s as such people who have achieved a high level of consciousness and you can find Total Contentment…
