Product Description

This 30-page booklet targets those who are bothered with doubts about themselves — their life and their beliefs — and feel trapped by Logic, that little voice in the head which can never be still. The author cautions that listening and learning from that voice can require courage, but doing so is the easy way to sanity. Logic can dispel all the agonies over doubts regarding "lessons", since childhood, which do not seem to fit all the other things we have been told, seen, or experienced. Confronting and then using logic will even make life fun! Readers who do not know history (most people) can easily find themselves feeling guilty (all religions) and inadequate socially (all cultures). Because these negative feelings take the joy out of life, the quick lessons and short essays presented here are fun to read as well as informative, but Chapter-12 will be shocking to those who are not ready to accept a new "reality".

From the Author

Mental health for the working class depends on acknowledging reality, not denial. (If you get paid by the hour you are "working class" even if you drive a middle-class Volvo and own an in-ground swimming pool. Deal with it). To accept what is real takes courage, an ability less abundant among your gated-community neighbors. The surprise for my readers is how easy it is to join the ranks of those who can keep their eyes open. Take heart then!

More About the Author

John Aalborg, aka "Mo'hammer" -- no TV interviews, no book signings, no letters and pleas to book publishers. His book-length work, however, is anything but neutral or fugitive, and, like Elmore Leonard, "I leave out the parts readers would skip." Aalborg is a no-nonsense, truck-driving, diploma-free, card-carrying member of the working class, and his novels are hard-boiled page-turners. His girlfriend, Cheater, calls his ever-present notebooks "splurt books", but after the notes are pounded into the keyboard you can taste them.

Aalborg has spent his life working jobs rich in personal experience -- all the while jotting down those experiences in notebooks or on legal pads. Three years living off the German black market (culminating in his being deported back to the USA); five years as a licensed locksmith in the City of Miami, where many of his less ethical assignments were for law enforcement; five years as an EMT for a rural Florida hospital and ambulance crew; many more years driving OTR (interstate) for long-haul trucking companies; and winter respites from the road by working the graveyard shift at local fuel-stops on exits off I-10, where he packed a gun and took care of his own law enforcement.

He has been published in NEWSWEEK, COSMOPOLITAN, and numerous trucking magazines. His "Axel McKay" radio plays were sponsored by Ford and Caterpillar, and aired coast-to-coast on the WLAC Nashville Network. In recent years he has been transcribing novels to disc, manuscripts hand-written on the road. The conversions completed so far include four mainstream novels and a collection of short stories. There is also a small book of meditations sure to uplift the depressed and infuriate the proud. As the legal administrator and confidant of this reclusive author, I have recently persuaded him to continue digitalizing his book-length work and to test the publishing waters via the Amazon Kindle platform. Some rare photographs of the author exist and are published here.

An on-going column -- "Don't Ask Us!" -- is published monthly in Trucker's Connection Magazine.

Much of the above is elaborated on our website: http://bleepfreepress.com
