As far as books:
I have only read a few all the way through, I have some form of A.D.D., but I have read and love The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan, the 7 sprititual laws of success by Deepak Chapra, and The Celestine Prophecy by some old geezer. Of coure the Bible is a great book with knowledge and history beyond what most people believe. And I cant forget books like Of Mice and Men, The Great Gatsby, Lord of the Flies, and all my shitty school books that tought me nothing but why to hate forced education
When it all comes down to it, I enjoy the things in life that remind me why life is so beautiful. The people and their imagination that have been communicated to me through various forms of art such as music and visuals.
