Details
A novel about the simple trick of changing ones mind and how so many of us fail to do so, living lives of useless waste and suffering, and causing more trouble than we solve or allow to go unarisen. About finding the responsibility of being human on earth and above and beyond all that - that all things are mind made. By ones own self is one's life created or destroyed. For one's own future is one ultimately responsible.
