I bought it this past summer. I liked the forward to the anniversary addition I purchased, at least as much as I read of it. This may be a sign, a synchronicity, to finish the forward and flip through the book. I haven't read any of the book. I imagine I would agree with a lot and thus get nothing out of it. If I do any of this, I will update you. I do recall a deeper spiritual message than you may have perceived my friend. Just because you are annoying, to put it mildly, does not mean that I do not consider you a friend whom I would be there for if you really needed it.
