Your starting to sound like me, my friend!
Yes we have lots of problems in the world these days, and many of them stem from addictions to many things that we deal with in our everyday lives.
We have terrible food addictions that causes weight problems , and living on the coast where I live, that problem is connected with the many casinos here, they offer people free buffets when they come in and lose their money. I worked in one years ago and would see people come in when we opened and not leave until we closed.
But the chemical drug problem is where we are loseing ground! And it is being blamed on marijuana, but not saying marijuana is addicting , but that when they try it , it leads them to want a bigger or better high, therefore trying something stronger(chemical) and addicting.
Looks like a good book, I hope it helps many people, and help many deal with having to deal with family and friends that are addicted to things.

Great selection of books! I only have the third Itation. But I too have been searching for the Second. Good knowledge. I put one of the poems in a poetry section at a discussion board. If you do have , run across, get these books - hold onto them! And pass them down to your offspring.......

He's pretty well off! I'm happy for him, sometimes it takes the lowest low to put you on top. I haven't read his book, but, does he get to the bottom, before he reaches the top?

oh yes. he started in brooklyn. i had my opinions of him before i read the book. because he is livin in the hamptons. i think he truly paid his dues,after all the business he's done ,he has remained honest,and hasn't resorted to deception in order to succeed. that says alot to me. this book was very inspiring to me,and i hate marketing and capatalizmo. i am convinced that his life and career has helped him humble out. he does yoga and is a vegan. i think he is steadily giving back to the people with some organizations hes with.without media coverage. i heard his wife was recently arrested for ganja posession

Looks like a good read! Really, about his wife? Traveling? I know most women think that they can just pack their little supply up and go through customs! We know of a few public eye women that have been caught in the act. Will check out his book!

This is too weird that you post books about Him, Messenger told me to look him up one day because we were having a debate about the war, and messenger feels - I hope that I am ok to say this - that war must be, I think she gets this from the Bible, but she tells me that it may feel very bad when you live war but it must be. And to listen to the Dali Lama's views about war. Have you read these books JAHchant? And do you know his views on war?
