Aah Books! Book are my life now! I was always fond of reading, but never actually got into the habbit of reading untill the day I was terminated from my job two years back. At that time, there were lot of decisions to be made at that time and I know I would have made different decision, than the once I took, if it was not for the books I read during those days. Whatever You Think, Think The Opposite by Paul Arden - Really helped me think differently, fight and move on. I highly recommend this book for everyone facing crisies in life. The Alchemist - Gave me hope and power to continue my struggle. The Greatness Guide 2: 101 Ways to Reach the Next Level - by Robin Sharma - My daily source of inspiration. Its because of these three books, I am a different person today. I cant say if I took the right or wrong decisions but as Paul puts it "WHAT IS A GOOD IDEA? One that happens is. If it doesn’t, it isn’t.”* *Even a bad idea that happens is better than a “good idea” that doesn’t ". So now I know, I made the right decisions! Happy Reading!

Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Bloodline of the Holy Grail and Genesis of the Grail Kings.. I have one bible that is 600 years old..and many religious books..

The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail details the authors’ investigation (starting in the 1960s) of the alleged mysteries of the village of Rennes-le-Château in southern France. In the late 1800s, a pastor of the village had became mysteriously wealthy, and the authors sought to determine why.

After over a decade of research and speculation, Baigent, Leigh, and Lincoln came to the following conclusions:

Poussin’s Et in Arcadia ego features prominently in the authors’ questThere is a secret society known as Priory of Sion that has a long and illustrious history dating back to the First Crusade. The order is led by a Grand Master or Nautonnier.
The Priory of Sion created the Knights Templar as its military and financial front.
The Priory is devoted to returning the Merovingian dynasty, that ruled the Frankish kingdom from 447 to 751 AD, to the thrones of Europe and Jerusalem.
The order protects these royal claimants because they may be the literal descendants of Jesus and his wife, Mary Magdalene, or, at the very least, of King David and High Priest Aaron.
The Roman Catholic Church tried to kill off all remnants of this dynasty and their guardians, the Cathars and the Templars, during the Inquisition, in order to maintain power through the apostolic succession of Peter, instead of the hereditary succession of Mary Magdalene.
These authors further asserted that the ultimate goals of the Priory of Sion are:

the founding of a “Holy European Empire” that would become the next hyperpower and usher in a new world order of peace and prosperity;
the establishment of a messianic mystery state religion by revealing the Holy Grail, which would prove Ebionite views and Desposyni claims; and
the grooming and installing of a “Rex Deus” pretender on the throne of a Greater Israel.
It is generally presumed the authors knew these claims to be, at best, unprovable. In fact, Richard Leigh has stated on television that they only set out to offer a plausible hypothesis, but “never believed it to be true.” However, the wording in HBHG clearly stated that though some elements were only a hypothesis, that the existence of the Priory of Sion was a “proven fact.”

Nothing quite like the truth to se you free..

It was a trilology that I found amazing, The Child Called It, The Lost Boy and A Man Named Dave by Dave Peltzer. These books made me cry and also made me realize that if someone can overcome these problems and still build a good life then I can do anything. It also made me feel very lucky and priveliged to have had the childhood I did and that I really have no REAL problems to moan about.

Slander by Ann Coulter.

She is so bold and so much in agreement with what I already thought but was somewhat afraid to articulate because our views are so un-PC.

I love her. I have read all her books except for the Clinton one. I hated her choice of subject matter for that book.

I can't stand the Clintons. I wish they would just go away!

Atlas Shrugged- by Ayn Rand.

It basically encouraged people to recognize that acting in their own best interests is what is best for society.

I am much better now, Objectivism has its merits, but so does compassion and helping others accomplish their goals, and far to few people recognize how much of helping others is in their best interests.
