Searching Sand Crabs in the Dark A Journey Inward

A New Yorker by birth, Terry has gathered forty years of international experience in both the private sector and government where he resided in Poland, India, Lebanon, Berlin, Saudi Arabia, and most recently Afghanistan. He has traveled extensively throughout the Middle East, East and West Europe, and East and South Asia on assignment. His poetry reflects an inner journey that is anchored in centering prayer - a prayer of silence and meditation. He counts among his guides Meister Eckhardt, John Main, Bede Griffiths, Jalaluddin Rumi, and Thomas Merton. His many years residing abroad fueled his curiosity as he explored Buddhist, Sufi, Shamanic, and Zen spirituality. Terry has balanced his wide-ranging career with the responsibilities of raising five children. He is currently responsible for a grandson, Chris, whom he adopted and lives with him. He regularly visits his five grown children and ten grandchildren located along the East Coast. For pleasure, Terry can be seen cavorting with dolphins from his ocean kayak launched from his Sandbridge, Virginia home.Douglas, Terry is the author of 'Searching Sand Crabs in the Dark A Journey Inward', published 2006 under ISBN 9780595385553 and ISBN 0595385559.
