TWID – Traveling, Wondering, Imaginative, Dweller

Lillian Longwood is my name. I was nearly turning 13 when I discovered the truth. Changing one’s perspective thoughts only teaches your mind far greater than you or I could ever imagine. Understanding greater knowledge of the unknown that was finally known was far beyond an adventure but a whole new beginning for not just myself but for everyone that is a traveling, wondering, imaginative dweller. Anybody with a creative ability to create or anyone with any kind of talent whatsoever is a Twid. Everyone with no talent or no imagination is called an Unimaginative Dweller. The mysterious within one world brought into our own world you will never know until you open this book. Many adventures bring together friendships and family within this book.

One and the Other

It is always about family. The lies, the deceit, the betrayal, and the undying love. How often do we remember that everything we find doing is for our benefit and not that of another? What we are, or may became, is shaped by the hands of those around us.

There is no truth until ‘what is’, is known. And the lie? It is the truth until ‘what is’, is known.

Who is to be blamed, the one who gives or the one who takes? If there is none to give, who will take? And if there is none to take, who will give? This is the balance, the same we plaudit but are anguished by. Who then is to blame, when all play their parts to sustain this balance?

And the mind turns again like a screw. There is only one way, one choice, and one reality. In the end, it is between the one and the other.

Muslim School Dropout

Muslim School Dropout is the uproariously honest semi-autobiographical life of Amir Yass, a gay Persian Muslim who traded Quran recitations for comedy sets under Hollywood lights.

Growing up in a conservative Iranian-American family, Amir was the golden child—until he dropped out of Islamic school, came out of the closet, and discovered that prayer rugs and punchlines don’t always mix. From awkward mosque moments to wild West Hollywood nights, Amir takes readers on a whirlwind journey through identity, faith, and finding your voice when you’re caught between worlds.

With razor-sharp humor and heartfelt vulnerability, Muslim School Dropout is a coming-of-age tale for anyone who’s ever felt like the ultimate outsider—and learned to turn that into their superpower.

New Horizons in Astrology

Couture offers a transpersonal view of astrology. Rather than the planets’ apparent position to the Earth, he places them in position to the Sun. This would be a heliocentric view, and his work is dedicated to being of help for humanity in the development of a non-dualistic spirituality. This view is supported by the development of the quantum scientific viewpoint. I highly recommend this detailed view of astrology that promotes a sense of universal connectedness and interdependence, including empathy, social responsibility, and ethical action.
