Happiness Indeed!

Len Chetkin's inspirational book is spiritual, realistic, and just plain illuminating! He uses examples from his own life from giving up his place in the checkout line of a supermarket, to trusting a retailer with his last $100, to his attempts at reaching a true meditative state. By using instances from the ordinary to the ethereal, we as readers are able to witness this man's self-realization and his quest to find the happiness that we all attain. I found myself nodding vigorously while reading this book and thinking: yes, I know this......now I must remember these stimulating thoughts and put them into practice in my daily life. And it's working already! I found myself checking my irritation with a person walking slowly down the street thwarting my hasty step. I even began stopping myself from thinking and saying negative thoughts and instead concentrating on the positive. This is the profound point of Chetkin's book: we control our thoughts and our thoughts control our happiness. I am very pleased to have come across this book and will continue dogearing pages and underlining passages until hopefully one day I am able to realize myself, my actions, and my thoughts as reflectively and progressively as he does.
