I've written this book, nearly all-the-while struggling financially to build my business, in the firm belief that telling my story, in real-time, you'd have a road map to success. I've learned the hard way what I hope you benefit in the simplicity - by focusing your thoughts to live within "This Moment with God" you'll naturally Do and Be Good - and His Promises to you are kept. In this 30th year of my "Grand Awakening" to the reality of God's existence - forgiveness - and love, on this 3rd day of February, 2017, the 14th anniversary of writing the first words of this book, I'm challenged to share my dream with you. That I've written this unknowing of the vastness of my future wealth or from where it might come, but full well knowing that it is coming. And I also know that someday, with all humility and thanksgiving to the Source of all that is Good; even in my reluctant acceptance, now become profound in Jesus Christ that He is my Lord and Savior, He will prove to the world the Truth's within this body of work. My success, yet to come, will prove to you that by belief and persistence in the Hope in Entrepreneurialism, His success for you is inevitable. And one day, financially as wealthy as Spiritually, I'll have a reference to point you when you ask, "What do you attribute, Bill, to the 'over-night' success of the Spiritual Logic Foundation for Entrepreneurialism?" And I'll smile and reply, "Read the book!" Thank you in advance, Jesus for making this dream become reality.

Beyond Beauty is the story of a remarkable journey that Bill Terry and his wife, Rosemary, undertook when they joined a party of Dutch and British alpine plant hunters intent on botanizing on the roof of the world. The expedition travelled in a convoy of eight jeeps over roads that were rarely paved and occasionally terrifying. They crossed fifteen passes, some as high as 5,000 metres (16,500 feet), where even in midsummer, the wind scoured exposed skin.They braved days at high altitude, panting in the thin air of the Tibetan plateau, and were rewarded with collages of rock, moss, lichen, flower, and foliage so sublime they might be imagined as "perfect gardens," though no gardener or landscape architect had a hand in their creation.As the journey unfolds, Terry sketches the history of the region and observes life for Tibetans under direct Chinese rule and the ever-alert People''s Liberation Army. He reflects on the potential threat of a massive hydroelectric development to the wellbeing of the millions of people living downstream in Southeast Asia. Terry also contrasts the hardships suffered and dangers faced by pioneer plant hunters a century ago with the relative comfort and safety of modern travel in these remote and exotic lands.Throughout the book, the author''s distinctive photography portrays local custom and culture and celebrates the wildflowers in all their profusion, especially the almost heartbreaking beauty of the Asiatic Poppies.
