About the Author
Gary was born in Melbourne, Australia. In 1989, after the failure of his first marriage, he embarked on a journey of discovering himself, through attending personal growth courses, reading self-help books, and attending weekend seminars. This process involved some in-depth soul-searching and many hard questions.
In the mid-1990s, he found writing about what was happening in his life to be very helpful for his journey. This started a passion which continues to today.
For the last 12 months, Gary has been living in the garden city of Al Ain in the United Arab Emirates. Many of the poems included in this book have been written in and around the UAE.
Now while Gary readily admits that he does not have the answers, he offers suggestions and thoughts that may help us on our own journey in life.
This is his first book. |
