Intimidated in his family, at school and at work, Guy, the "Silent Good Boy" avoided attracting attention - but his nightmares caught up with him. Scared by his sexuality, alone, he desperately sought love to give meaning to his life. While his passion for the arts sends him to study in Europe, mysterious and unexpected memories emerged... Through sixty years of incredible adventures spanning three continents, at times humorous, tender and even shocking, Canadian-born artist Guy Giard reveals the secret of how he healed himself from repressed memories of childhood sexual abuse, PTSD, low self-esteem and suicidal ideation. In this page-turner of an autobiography, you'll be amazed at the extent to which realms as varied as music, art, journaling, humanitarian clowning, and Vipassana meditation restored Mr. Giard's love and gave him a new purpose in life. This inspiring book could transform your life! Foreword by Patch Adams, MDWith an interview with Patch AdamsWe have had the privilege to have Guy on several of our clown trips. He is a big, softhearted soul whose radiant smile has brought much glee and stimulation for the trips. He and I have spoken often, and I truly feel his passion for living radiantly, using clowning as a tool to help midwife a loving world. To hear of his own transformation to bring a loving soul will inspire others to try it on. Let him sparkle your environment. -Patch Adams, MD, physician, comedian, social activist, clown, author, and founder of the Gesundheit! InstituteTo Guy. Never forget that you have a gift.
