Hi,

I just started reading (and I'm almost halfway through) "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts" by Gabor Mate. So far it's been a great book.

I heard him being interviewed on the radio and I thought the book might be more metaphysical but so far it's been case studies and science. Really good science and case studies however. I like the way he talks about addiction, its not all nature. He demonstrates that nurture has a role also and WE CAN CHANGE. It's difficult but we all have the potential, whether we're 12 or 65, we can be different.

I feel silly writing this but I believe it.

Take care,

Cocco

I'm reading The Feeling Good Handbook by Dr. David Burns. It's good for personal growth, and if you want to effect change in your life.

The other book I just finished is Still Alice, the story of a woman diagnosed with Alzheimers in her 50s.

lol Are you sure you don't want to read up on how you could possibly be hunted Daniel? Might give you a heads up on what to avoid or depending on whether you want to be hunted, of course.
