Face Values paints my rollercoaster ride of emotions after waking up with half a nose and a hole where my cheek should be. It shares the stigma of gross facial disfigurement, the pain and trauma of radiation therapy, misdiagnosis of peri-neural invasion leading to a life or death decision. Invasive skull based surgery followed by years of painful and debilitating reconstruction of my face resulting in severe bouts of depression. From the depth of despair, I discover the value of life. I learn that the face we show the world is of minor importance. True friends and caring people see below this surface. Face Values shows how inner strengh, together with the right attitude, can triumph over the spectre of other people's reactions and the deep dark holes of depression. We draw our strengh from lifetime experiences. Mine came from a primitive childhood in outback Queensland and was nurtured by personal traumas including the death of two children while fighting to establish and maintain a successful business career.

This milk is the main constituent of a number of other products like cheese, butter, yogurt, cottage cheese, and buttermilk. This book is going to tell you all about how you can use these products to cure a number of ailments. In ancient times, a man’s prosperity was counted by the number of livestock he had in his farm, including goats, sheep, cows, horses, and other such domesticated animals. That is why in ancient books, the milk of a cow has been described in such glowing terms – The spinal cord of a cow has a nerve called Sunlight in it. Whenever the Sun God showers his rays on the body of a cow grazing in the fields, the rays are turned into gold when they touch the nerve called sunlight. That is the reason why the butter and the milk you get from a cow is golden in color. Talk about imagination! But this is the reason why when the Celtic and Gaulic tribes left Britain during the Roman conquest, the women walked in front of the cows and horses in order to protect them! That means if any one tried stealing the cows away, they would have to go through the warrior women first! Traditionally, milk was drank fresh without heating. It is only nowadays that we pasteurize it in order to get rid of all the germs. The yellowish color, supposed to be gold from the rays of the sun [!] is nothing but fat globules in the milk. The white color of the milk is due to casein. This is rich in nourishing and nutritional calcium. That is the reason why growing children are given a glass full of milk morning and evening, so that they have strong bones, good teeth and a healthy constituency. Traditionally, it is believed that the best time to drink milk is in the early morning. According to the ancients, the milk was digested as the sun went up, taking with it the benefit of the rays of the sun. That is why milk and milk products were never given to members of the family during the evening hours. There is a scientific reason behind this belief. It takes about three hours for milk to digest. That is why, if you are drinking milk at night in order to sleep more peacefully, do not go to sleep, as soon as you drink the milk.
