A young friend of mine, who was 17 years-old when we met, was going through what so many
young men his age go through today in this sick society.
He was uninterested in education, heavily into drugs and partying, mixed up with the
wrong crowd, and so warped with anger that he couldn�t control himself, even in the
face of the law.
He and I clicked immediately, kindred spirits of sorts, and he opened up to me about his
life. He had been kicked out of school for being intensely violent, and he was on probation
and facing the prospect of juvenile detention, but was still selling drugs and just not giving
a fuck. His good friend, a high-school kid, had just been murdered, stabbed some 77 times
or so, but this young friend of mine was too �hard� to grieve or show sadness. Or so
he thought at the time.
We met at an ayahuasca retreat. The young man�s parents were very spiritual people,
you see, and they had lived amazing, conscious lives enriched by introspection and self-exploration,
and marked with abundance in wealth and happiness. Yet, no matter how deeply they longed to help,
they couldn�t figure out how to set their boy on a meaningful path. All seemed lost
to them, so as a last resort they escorted the kid to the jungle.
Next to this young man in a hammock all night during his first ever medicine ceremony, I
was taken by the fact that he never moved, not once, the entire journey. Some 9 hours
motionless in a hammock he laid in a deep trance, as if asleep. In the morning he and
I sat together in a tropical garden listening to the waves of the Pacific crash upon the
nearby beach, and he described to me his journey.
He drank a single cup of brew, he told me, and watched as his everyday self melted away
and his consciousness was transported into another realm where he waged an all night
war for survival. When he had arrived in this realm, he found that he was mounted on a magnificent
dragon, a mighty and benevolent beast, unstoppable, unshakable, and utterly fearless. This was
his true self revealed, for the kid was no doubt a warrior, albeit a lost warrior.
For nine hours in the saddle on this primal beast he waged a fierce war for his life.
Locked in air-to-air combat, he was assailed non-stop by malicious dragons, one after another,
hour after hour. They came to him as beasts of destruction, of illness, of greed, of damnation,
of fire and brimstone, self-destruction, and of hate and anger.
One after another, from atop his mighty dragon, he slew each and every one of these devilish
creatures, cutting them down with a finely honed blade, engaging them in aerial dogfights,
valiantly slashing at them with his sword, screaming and howling, madly fighting them
off.
When the light of day began to cut through the interminable darkness and the ceremony
came to a close, there he was, still in a trance, flying high above vast valleys and
over massive mountainous peaks. Below him, everywhere, laid the scattered and bloodied
carcasses of his foes, the dragons who fought so viciously to take him down, now all dead,
all smote by his own hand. He was victorious.
My young friend was never the same after that. His life immediately pivoted one-hundred-eighty
degrees. He negotiated with the court to avoid prison. He nailed his high school equivalency
test and left his friends and his hometown behind embarking on a mission to master himself
and to help others. He went to the Amazon and studied plant medicine with traditional
masters, and eventually came back to the states to study permaculture and to work with a youth
organization helping kids like him find their way.
I was reminded of this story recently while I was reflecting on my own inner journey,
my own quest for peace and purpose. Unlike him, though, my dragons were conquered with
books, with knowledge, with the wisdom and experience put down on paper by other souls
who�d made the hero�s journey and had returned home with a pearl, a gift to share
for whomever may need it.
There are so many books that have changed my outlook or have inspired me to take my
life more seriously and to treat myself with more care and more respect. Books have taught
me to love myself and to forgive myself, so I thought to share just three of them here,
in the hopes of paying it forward to others who are seeking a victorious way out of the
darkness, and an end to the everyday struggle of existence.
We all have malevolent dragons that must be checked if we are to individuate and step
into our power. We all have gifts to offer in this world of competition, but for many
of us, these gifts lay hidden in the caverns of the unconscious mind, recognizable as self-doubt,
as fear, as helplessness, and as self-destruction and confusion.
Perhaps these books will work their powerful magic for others.
1. Man and His Symbols by Carl Gustav Jung
The voluminous works of renowned psychoanalyst Carl Jung are unrivaled in value with regards
to insight on the phenomenon of personal transformation. While the bulk of his works are largely academic
and scholarly in nature, making them somewhat dry to the lay person, Man and His Symbols
was a successful attempt to make the breadth of his message available in a singular volume,
easy to understand and directed at the everyday seeker of inner truth.
The importance of recognizing myth, symbolism, archetypes, synchronicity, dreams, and the
contents of unconscious mind as signposts on the path toward a life worth living is
critical to the process of awakening. This book is absolutely essential for understanding
the hidden forces at play in our daily lives, and at drawing them out in the open so they
can then be used as allies.
Every transformation demands as its precondition �the ending of a world�-the collapse of
an old philosophy of life. ~ C. G. Jung, Man and His Symbols
2. The Hero With a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell
American mythologist and scholar Joseph Campbell was especially gifted with the power of translating
collective myth into personal guidance. Of his many works, The Hero With a Thousand Faces
pulls together the stories of many human cultures, past and present, in order to reveal the timeless
that we are all the same, and that the journey from birth to death is a grand adventure,
if we will only make the choice to follow our bliss.
The agony of breaking through personal limitations is the agony of spiritual growth. Art, literature,
myth and cult, philosophy, and ascetic disciplines are instruments to help the individual past
his limiting horizons into spheres of ever-expanding realization. As he crosses threshold after
threshold, conquering dragon after dragon, the stature of the divinity that he summons
to his highest wish increases, until it subsumes the cosmos. Finally, the mind breaks the bounding
sphere of the cosmos to a realization transcending all experiences of form � all symbolizations,
all divinities: a realization of the ineluctable void. ~Joseph Campbell, The Hero With a Thousand
Faces
3. The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles by Steven
Pressfield
Written by the contemporary historical fiction writer Steven Pressfield, this simple, short
book does something imperative for those who are struggling to realize their purpose and
see their greatest dreams become reality. The War of Art identifies, defines and precisely
explains how to overcome the regressive force which keep us from taking action in pursuit
of our true purpose. He calls it Resistance.
To Pressfield, Resistance is a vicious and unforgiving dragon, standing firmly between
us as we are and us as we wish to be. This book is essential for its clarity and practicality,
for any dream, any venture, any goal, and any hope we have requires action over the
inertia of Resistance.
Most of us have two lives. The life we live, and the unlived life within us. Between the
two stands Resistance.
Resistance is the most toxic force on the planet. It is the root of more unhappiness
than poverty, disease, and erectile dysfunction. To yield to Resistance deforms our spirit.
It stunts us and makes us less than we are and were born to be.
Look in your own heart. Unless I�m crazy, right now a still small voice is piping up,
telling you as it has ten thousand times, the calling that is yours and yours alone.
You know it. No one has to tell you. And unless I�m crazy, you�re no closer to taking
action on it than you were yesterday or will be tomorrow. You think Resistance isn�t
real? Resistance will bury you. ~Steven Pressfield, The War of Art
Final Thoughts
Not everyone is meant to, or able to go on an exotic plant medicine journey where the
ancient spirit of a sacred vine vividly reveals to us our demons, as happened to my young
friend. Not all of us are meant to have that kind of experience. Yet, we do all struggle
with overcoming that which holds us back, and there is nothing more valuable in the
struggle for personal triumph than the experience and wisdom available to us in literature.
It is my sincerest wish that this message will reach those who need it most and will
offer them an unforeseen chance at winning the
war against themselves.

Her Life Was Falling Apart And She Gave Up Her Son For Adoption.
7 Years Later They Met And She Did Something Not Everyone Would Have The Guts To
The life of this woman was not an easy one from the very beginning.
Though, one of the worst things happened when she was 21.
At that time she had already had a three-year-old son named Matthew.
Unfortunately, Kris Smith didn't have anything to raise him, so she decided to give him for
adoption.
The woman thought that this way her boy will have a chance for a better life in a family
that will love and care about him.
Her story started in a foster house as well.
Later on, she was living in various families, but none of them treated the girl well.
Kris says that abusement was everywhere, and when she couldn't bear it any longer, she
ran away when she was 14 and started living on the streets.
It's no wonder that there was nothing positive in that period of her life, but for the news
that she was pregnant in 16.
Despite everything she left the baby and gave birth to him in August 1983.
It was Matthew.
She was worried and scared a lot, and to have a roof over their heads she was made to enter
into an abusive relationship with an alcoholic.
Her son was everything for her, but soon she got pregnant again, but the child died the
same day Matthew was born.
The only thing, it was three years later.
"I had to celebrate the life of one child and grieve the life of another on the same
day," Kris said.
"I fell apart."
It was the time when the woman made a desperate step.
She didn't have anything, no job, no apartment and thought that Matthew's life would be
much better with foster parents.
It was one of the worst moments of her life, but then she believed it was the right thing
to do.
For the next three years she was jobless and homeless, but one day it strikes her that
unless she acts now, she will die on the streets soon.
Luckily, Kris managed to find not only a job but also the love of her life, Joe Johnson.
The man had his child and they started living together.
The woman was craving to meet her son and called the Michigan Department of Social Services.
Kris had to overcome lots of procedures, meetings, and checkups until she was allowed to adopt
her son seven years after she lost him.

Darrell Hammond was a star as Trump. But then came Alec Baldwin. - Duration: 5:28.
"First, he was a cast member on Saturday Night Live for many years.
He has done all the presidents that we've had to suffer through.
And I'm really honored to have him, he's gonna be walking out for a few minutes
and joining us.
Please give a warm welcome to Darrell Hammond!"
"Good evening, I'm Donald Trump.
Of course, most of you know who I am already because I'm rich and I'm handsome."
And you don't hate Trump?
Why would I?
Why would an anthropologist hate his work?
You get a call from Steve Higgins and what does Steve tell you?
We're gonna replace you as Trump.
Alec's really famous.
And you're not.
"Good evening, America.
I'm gonna be so good tonight."
But then I said, "Well, I guess if Alec's not going to play him after the election,
if they don't win, then I'll play him again."
And then the most curious thing, "No, you won't play Trump here any more."
So you sat on that bench that day and you cried?
And threw up.
There?
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah!
It was violent.
"The Donald has a few plans for that stodgy and outdated White House, you understand?
Gentleman, I give you, the Trump House."
When he hosted, was when I got my first sense of him.
No one ever came earlier, no one ever stayed later.
"Do that thing, go ahead."
"You're fired."
He converts unpleasant into pleasant.
I saw that when Tom Brady hosted.
I saw that when Peyton Manning hosted, and in particular with Derek Jeter.
These are cats that walk in and go, "I can't act, but I'm pretty sure I've always been
able to figure out how to win."
"Please welcome King Midas himself, Donald Trump!"
We were doing a sketch with me and Amy Poehler and Trump was in the sketch.
And he's sitting there with me, and we're on a break, and says to me, "So listen, I
can't act.
I'm not an actor.
But I have this theory that if I go off script a little, it will be more spontaneous and
look more real.
And being real is being funny."
"Watch!"
His brain rejects negativity.
Maybe too much so.
Did you watch the election?
No.
Did you watch election night?
Where were you on election night?
I was right here on the couch.
Watching TV?
What were you doing?
Game of Thrones.
There was an election going on.
I got kicked out -- I'm not in the life.
I'm not in that world any more and it didn't feel good, so I didn't want to be reminded
of that.
"The feeling is that without this measure, I will dismiss this entire impeachment as a meaningless,
partisan affair.
Much the way you have."
"The lockbox would be used only for social security and Medicare."
Everybody remembers the lockbox.
Tell me what happens to you -- you're in your office, right?
And you're typically by yourself?
I was in my dressing room.
And what happens in that moment?
I knew I couldn't go out there.
I was shaking.
I was clutching the carpet.
I can't talk.
I'm too scared to talk.
"You may think you know the location of the lockbox."
I created a crisis that was manageable and just made a little cut.
I mean the way you described it -- is that the cut?
It's one of them.
Cutting is really a way to create a more manageable crisis than the one going on in your head.
That's one reason to cut.
Another reason to cut is to let people know, there's something wrong in my house, please
come look.
"Instead I will take those remarks and put them away.
Away in a tiny lockbox."
What time am I going out there, man?
It's getting late.
You know, Clinton, most elegant person ever.
Wearing a tux, greeting everyone.
When I met Bush, he was waiting for me at the cocktail party like this.
Remember Rosie O'Donnell was going after him?
"Big pig! He's a big pig! Big pig! Whore! Pig!"
Trump's like, "Yeah, and? Your point is?
If I had a dollar for every time -- oh wait a minute, I do!"
"Ladies and gentelmen, Darrell Hammond!"
