To be blessed with the tools for writing, and having a great story to present, one rivaling Eckhart Tolle and Jordan Peterson's work, is the result of peer pressure and a lot of work online in Zoom sessions.
 
You don't have to pay, I will leave it right here, but you have to pay attention.
is the title of my first book of a trilogy, a story of hope that zeros in on the heart of the problem.

Sadness is a temporary thing, depth or variation is real however,
I was so sad thinking climate change will end our species, then I found hundreds of people working on solutions to the problem. I am not quite so sad. I rediscovered the value of 1 on 1 communication with like-minded peers via Enlivening-edge.

Valuable connections are being made that make it true what they say about hope... it kills sadness. It also helps with brain disorders and mental health struggles that are silently sweeping the nation. Every day, more individuals experience anxiety, ADD/ADHD, depression, or other brain-related conditions that cause unbearable suffering.

For the suicidal reader, it will reduce the chance of choosing a permanent solution, (no undo) to a temporary problem. 

When I was around 24, I discovered I was drinking way too much on almost every weekend and often during the week. I would wake up from a blackout with no memory of how I got home. sadly. It took a few more years  then in Mosman north Sydney in 1982 I was introduced to AA.

I could not get the 12 steps of recovery from alcoholism to work very well for me, until years of failure led me to rethinking my values.
I was clinging to my atheism, even after acknowledgement of powers greater than myself existing all around me.
However to my surprise, letting go was the missing skill or key to puzzle of a meaningful existence.
What exactly did I have to Let go of? My scientifically valid analysis of Psychology? no, oh yeah, open a rabbit hole of metaphysics with the red or blue pill. Nope
I wanted to get well, and I was hearing the same message over and over that the steps work.  
The issue was my science background conflicting with the idea of religious concepts and supreme beings. Research I conducted personally into alcohol addiction and its effect on my decision making ability was cause for concern, to put it mildly.
I decided, after a few more attempts that I would "fake it till you make it" as the sign on the AA room said.

A light came on one day after meditating for a while, then asking the universe God of good, for knowledge of his will for me, or her if you want. Calling good orderly direction (God) my God or a power greater than myself.

I kind of said OK I’m ready, what is it? What is your will for me? I waited and waited… deafening silence. I was not going to get a reply today.
It was about this moment of giving up came this voice from the universe that was saying “what do U want?
Well knock me down with a feathery duster.
I have free will. If I do the will of others, it's not free will.
Thanks to the Good Orderly Direction, for allowing me to decide which path leads to value and truth.

In the second Book I reveal the confidence boost that came to me after getting released from prison to friends talking Legend. I later won a court case over our ineffective bicycle helmet laws.
