The Celtic Holy Grail Quest - A personal quest through Celtic Mythology for the Holy Grail, to help combat Mental Health problems.
Autobiography - coping with Mental Health problems
Abstract flights of fantasy

As a long term sufferer of depression, writing became an outlet for the pressures on my mind. Part of this writing took me on a journey into ancient Briton and the Celtic people. From here I stumbled backwards on to the legend of the Holy Grail, a Medieval Tale that had its origins in Celtic roots.
This was the start of my book "The Celtic Holy Grail Quest", more than just a Grail Quest, a journey to heal my mind. The book provides many insights into mental health problems and has numerous healing and coping strategies within its text. My aim in writing this book is to remove the stigma associated with so-called 'Mental Disorders'. These are not always illnesses, but can be ways for the mind to adapt to new or trying situations.
I set out as an accidental Grail knight, seeking I'm not sure what? Through the dark passageways of my mind and battling hidden demons along the way, I finally reached my goal and attained what I was seeking.
I hope people will find what they are looking for in my book and I can bring light, back into fellow sufferers. Although the book unveils the dark desperation that manifests itself in mental illness, I also recount many amusing tales, for where there is darkness there is also light. One thing I always preach is “laughter is good for the soul.”
I want to put a smile on people's faces and bring light back into people's lives; acting as a guide from the dark clutches of despair and making people realise how special they are. People with mental health problems are often misunderstood - I have found in fellow sufferers some of the most precious people on this planet.
The Celtic Holy Grail Quest, Out now!

I'm so glad you have changed jobs and are happy, prayers pays off. =]
We went to a two churches here and everybody is soooo friendly.
We visited some of our new neighbors and had some tea and cake.
It's a lot different than We're used to.
We have a lot of different denominations here so the churches are
different here than they are there where everyone is mostly Catholic.
Les says hello from your American brother. =] Take care and hope to talk with you soon.
Love and peace,
Mariah

“If deep down you feel good about something you want, you will get it. “
“If deep down you feel bad about something you do not want, you will get it.”
Like the Law Of Gravity, the Law Of Attraction is a non-discriminating law.
“Like attracts like – where focus goes, energy flows.”

Know the truth and find peace.
Share the way.

I thought you'd appreciate a couple of quote I heard recently. The first is Tolkien and was sent to me by a friend on here. I think it captures the power of narrative (myth even) so perfectly.
" It’s like in the great stories - the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something … that there’s some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for."
- Sam Gamgee, The Lord of the Rings: the Two Towers
The second quote is from G K Chesterton
"Fairy tales do not teach children that dragons exist. They know that already. Fairy tales teach children that dragons can be killed."
