Part love
story, part adventure mystery, part travel guide for the soul, The Longest
Distance is a meditation in traveling from our heads to our hearts, and an
awakening to what lies within.
Shaken by
tragedy in the wilds of Africa, Jeremy Braddock sets off in search of the
answers to our questions about life, truth, and the all-too-trying-yet-wonderful
emotion of love. From Kenya to Costa Rica – and a host of other venues along
the way – the protagonist takes us on a rollercoaster ride and riveting journey
that reveals to us the masters, the maniacal beauty of this planet, and the
greatest mystery of all––the ‘one thing’ we came here to know. As with life
itself, he is not alone in this adventure, with the many supporting characters
providing him with mirrored reflections of love in its varied forms, and a
windowed view into his soul. Armed with his wit, his will, and an ample dose of
healthy humility, our vigilant warrior attempts to summon within himself the
courage we must all find to see the face of Truth, and walk the path of a
higher Love.
The Longest Distance evokes deeper contemplation à la Eat, Pray, Love
with a level of discourse and discovery that will resonate with those who have
been touched by the writings of Paulo Coehlo and Neale Donald Walsch.
Interwoven within the tapestry of the novel and in between each storied tale is
an uplifting dialogue with Jeremy’s higher self -- the Friend that points the
way. What adds to TLD’s universal appeal is the inspirational guest
appearances of a myriad of Masters – from poets to statesmen to those of the
cloth – along with each chapter’s unveiling of a key ‘quality’ that, when
pieced together, helps to reveal the greater picture at hand -- the Love within
the love that beckons us home.
The Longest Distance is a sleuth of spirit and treasure hunt of the heart
that awakens our soul and provides yet another clue for the curious, a jewel
for the romanticist in us all.
Author Bio
David Scott was born
in the United States, and raised in the world. He currently resides in
Singapore, but remains deeply connected to the passion that is Paris, the power
shift that finds its new home in Asia, and the movement to co-create and
cooperate that had its genesis for him in America; its inspiration both within
and throughout.
David has spent his
career in the field of education, his life in the field of service. He is
perhaps best known for his contributions as an accomplished entrepreneur,
investor and leader in education, establishing and stewarding innovative school
systems of size and scope in North America, the Middle East and Pacific Asia.
He has played both visionary leader and humble student, with each measure of
the world his teacher. David’s work in education and support of the life
sciences has provided hope for a more advanced, equitable and sustainable means
to greater health and life for those he has been privileged in knowing.
The central theme of
both his scholarship as an educationist and his work as an author is the
delicate but essential role of relationships. David’s travels have provided a
cross-cultural perspective on relationships of a human nature. His discovery of
the inner worlds through meditation and study of various teachings has offered
a glimpse into the power of the possible that resides within. It is this he
seeks to help unveil in all through education and transformative writing.
With a poetic note and
romantic view to the worlds available to us all, David Scott’s writing explores
relationships of a higher nature, with a particular emphasis on the Masters and
their timely messages. His novel The Longest Distance has been called a
meditation from the head to the heart, and an awakening to what lies within. It
serves as a pathway to the eternal that is ours to claim.
David may be
recognized in the world for his contributions to education. Yet, he remains
humbled by the many lessons—the gifts—the world has bestowed upon him as his
teacher.
He now remains at your
service as an author.
