I then begin to develop my ideas through blog posts. I often tweet these posts to ascertain reader traffic and comments. This will help me understand how others may react to my newest ideas before I commit to the long and winding road as a full book project. (less)

Do younger generations understand the events leading up to the unusual happenings of the 60s and 70s?

A good question, inviting a rhetorical question.

How much do you understand about the Civil War?

Do you recall the significant battles, major turning points, and the commanding personalities who influenced the outcome? Probably you know a lot if you’re a history buff, but you’ll never understand that war the same way that those who lived through it did.

This is an underlying thesis of generational so Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Brent Green  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Suffering creates a vivid contrast illuminating joy, happiness, and satisfaction. It is a harsh lesson on the other side of sublime. We all must suffer, whether we choose to or not. There must be value in that which is given in our lives, even though we hope and try to live joyfully and enjoy our brief time on earth.”
Brent Green, Questions of the Spirit: The Quest for Understanding at a Time of Loss

“Forgiveness is a conscious choice to become more liberated and less constrained by the past. This simple act of changing one’s mindset can be the wellspring of tolerance, mercy, and compassion.”
Brent Green

“Looking at death can be life-affirming. It doesn’t need to mire us in thoughts of uselessness, nihilism, self-recrimination, and indifference to the future. Just a reminder that our days are numbered invites us to consider our blessings, strengthen our resolve to carry on, and escalate our compassion for all creatures, great and small.”
Brent Green, Questions of the Spirit: The Quest for Understanding at a Time of Loss

“Those of us who receive the blessing of a long life will also need to understand and manage grief and loss many times throughout our lives. Grief will come again, and again. Loss is a requisite part of the aging process and the human experience.”
Brent Green

“Suffering creates a vivid contrast illuminating joy, happiness, and satisfaction. It is a harsh lesson on the other side of sublime. We all must suffer, whether we choose to or not. There must be value in that which is given in our lives, even though we hope and try to live joyfully and enjoy our brief time on earth.”
Brent Green, Questions of the Spirit: The Quest for Understanding at a Time of Loss

“Suffering can precipitate creativity, liberating the creator through inspiration and then many available channels of human communication, and therefore there is value in suffering.”
Brent Green, Questions of the Spirit: The Quest for Understanding at a Time of Loss

“I felt great empathy for my friend, as one form of cancer after another emerged to challenge him. I felt sympathy for his suffering that surely clawed at his daily routines, always active and busy, but he rarely verbalized complaints while courageously challenging his archenemy. He met pain and physical decline with 600-calorie workouts; he discarded anxieties somewhere along innumerable running trails; he faced death by running through life at full stride.”
Brent Green, Questions of the Spirit: The Quest for Understanding at a Time of Loss

“All the sorrows of life are bearable if only
we can convert them into a story.”
