Under
If we deliberately pause our breath – sitting or standing, watching closely – we notice a second stream of breathing, quieter and more elusive, yet always there.
Even when we think it stops, we discover, thankfully, it never truly does.
This new collection of poems, Under, works the same way. As you read, whenever you pause, you’ll realize you’ve been breathing all along.

The Thinking Donkey
The Wisdom of Harold
‘It’s true, I carry man’s burdens, but burdens are easy to carry for people when you love them.
And if I, a donkey, can so easily carry the burdens of men out of love… then how much more would God the Lord of everything be able to love men, too.’
What you need to know:
Harold, the thinking donkey, is a thoughtful story about resisting injustices and being kind to others. An important message is how moral attitudes are conveyed with the knowledge and use of a wide vocabulary, and therefore of how vital the importance of reading is becoming in a world of emoji mobile dialogue and poor literacy.
Young minds can be easily influenced, and persuaded about many things, but sometimes they need to resist the persuasion of peers trying to take advantage of any intolerance leading them into quick judgements, for by encouraging their tolerance they cannot be so easily persuaded, and will begin learning to think for themselves.

Rediscovering God
This book defends the existence of God, but not the God described in the Bible. First, it discusses two serious errors in the Bible. The first is that God made Adam first and then later made Eve. What science proves is that the template for the human body is without doubt female. Men are only modified women. The other serious error in Genesis is that God wanted to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah because of the sin of homosexuality. Read the evidence that homosexuality is genetic or epigenetic and hence created by God.
The book shows that if you want to be an atheist, you have to believe that: 1. All of the matter in the Universe came from nothing. 2. That, there must be an infinite number of Universes. 3. That, in a Universe where entropy (a measure of disorganization) rules, the dirt of the Earth self-organized into the most complex structure in the known Universe, your body. A hint about the incredible complexity of the human body is given in the book.
Because a subatomic particle changes its behaviour based on whether it is being observed or not, Pantheism is the possible nature of God. The author is a big fan of the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, but because the God that created the amazing Universe we live in and then humanity would not require blood to be spilled to appease the disobedience of a primitive man, it is unlikely that Jesus was God.

Things to Know Before Your Adventure to Japan
Japan is a land of mystery, deeply steeped in its rich culture. It is the most fascinating country I have ever visited—and I’ve traveled all over the world.
Although the Japanese often wear Westernized clothing, they remain deeply immersed in their traditional heritage. The temples and shrines are magnificent, offering a glimpse into the country’s spiritual beauty. The geishas of Kyoto are an unforgettable sight, especially when fully dressed for their appointments, exuding grace and tradition.
The open-air hot springs, known as onsen, are a unique and rejuvenating experience you are sure to enjoy. Japanese cuisine is equally distinctive, offering a delicious array of dishes, from tempura and rice to udon noodles, ramen, fried rice (pilaf), yakitori, and a variety of fried meats and sandwiches.
Japan provides countless experiences to discover and enjoy, from traditional stage plays and sumo wrestling to bustling markets and the world-renowned bullet train. The bullet train, the fastest in the world, can whisk you from Tokyo to Kyoto in just 2 hours and 15 minutes.

The Conduit
This book was conceived to establish a relationship between Freemasonry and the foundation of golf clubs, but my research became much extended, causing me to examine the influence of the military in relation to both. It is well known that both Freemasonry and golf have expanded their tentacles to most parts of the world, and it is the military who have provided the conduit for this expansion. It is to them that we owe the dissemination of golf and Freemasonry around the world. The book covers the history of both over a 300-year period from 1600 to 1900. It was remarkable how often the same names appeared in all three disciplines. Without doubt a relationship has been established and long may it continue.
