@Vee McMillen I was first introduced to him in the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I had no idea that the part he was playing in the film was so much his own personality. Guess that's why it was convincing.

@Vee McMillen He may in fact have good acting skills but his personality in his blog is same as in that film. Very forthright and well thought out and seems to have a since of inner peace in spite of the external insanity going on around us.

@Vee McMillen I got to tell you I spent from like 25-50 years old with severe depression and anxiety and meds didn't help, at 50, I was introduced to a form of meditation called mindfulness meditation, 62 now, almost 63, and anxiety and depression levels resolved. This is not to say I never am sad, certainly the loss of my parents was painful, and not to say I am never anxious about anything but it's not chronic or severe like it was. All the SSRI's and NSRI's in the world and I'm sure I was on at least a couple of dozen different ones over the years never even came close to providing relief. There are many forms of meditation but I think mindfulness and transcendental are probably the two that are the most impactful but the latter has become something of a financial racket and too rich for my blood.
