The book cover design for my new book title, The Way of the Modern Warrior – Living the Samurai Ideal in the 21st Century, is now available for the world to see. The book will be released in the fall of 2012 and can currently be preordered through Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Here is a little taste of what is inside the book:
No one is responsible for your fallacies—probably not even yourself.
We are all subject to the ridicules of life and the difficulties we must endure in everyday activities. How much more simple things would be if we would only focus on one specific ideal—even if it eventually appears in our minds as a wrong choice. Wrong choices are part of the growing process of self-evolution and are necessary if we learn from these errors in judgment and proceed to reestablish our prime condition. This takes a lot of guts. We are always ensnared by external entrapments, things that seem to control us: earning a livelihood, trying to provide for our families, being good to others. The list is endless. It would all fall into place if we would concern ourselves only with those things that can enhance our lives for the betterment of our own personal existence, albeit for the benefit of all concerned. Many of the detours in life that we are subject to happen because of matters that may be beyond our initial control. It is how one deals with adversity that empowers a person to move forward with themselves as the prime recipient of their own good. When you are good to yourself, you will find no difficulty in being good to others, but you must come first. When you come to understand the reasons for your actions, you will readily see that decisions may or may not be necessary at that juncture.
