You fight for Love by becoming self-aware and that's easier said than done. This is a biography of drama, self-acceptance and ultimately love. Big Love, which weaves together the tapestry of life. It's all-encompassing, beautiful and peaceful, so why do I keep challenging it? Why is our society so afraid of it?The fight is not to fight it, and recognise what it's trying to show you. It's embraced me in joy and wonderment in some most unexpected ways, right from when I was a child. It was there when I was 16 and lived through the massive explosion of an ammunition dump, which could have obliterated half the city of Jakarta. It was there when I resuscitated my brother back to life after a surfing accident, overcame self-judgement of my homosexuality and multiple suicide attempts. And, very importantly, it's been steadfast to my father's perverse narcissism, which I only realised after half a century of living with it. It's hard not to get distracted and discouraged by what I imagine or demand Big Love should be and feel the freedom it's trying to bring me to, and that is to be happy. I truly hope this book can provide some solace and answers to those who struggle with what is an ever increasing mayhem of demands on ourselves.
