I can easily write this knowing what I now know. As a man who has experienced the loss of a sister at a very young age, the loss of his parents mentally for a time till they healed from that devastation, the loss of my own family, and nearly losing my own life in an industrial accident (the life does pass before the eyes, trust me), this is not to say that I didn't have lots of great moments, just a little perspective.

In all my years on this planet, and with all the education I have been given and worked for – Central Catholic H.S., East Coast Aero Tech for aircraft maintenance, and Lincoln Tech for computer technician – I had never been given the tools by my parents, priests, teachers, instructors, or politicians of how to be truly happy doing what I was meant to do, or to be a self leader. All of those sources basically held me down. You've heard it before: "That won't work," "That's crazy," "You'll never make it." I was always fighting the tide, when one day, after the devastation of losing my kids, for the most part, to a divorce, after not being able to tuck them in at night, after those forty-some-odd years of losses, I was found by Mr. Mark Hamilton and his Neothink Society.

I received that letter in 2004 that touched a nerve that had been seared over and over. At that time I was not able to do the physical labor required for my job anymore, from the injuries sustained in the accident, and I didn't have a pot to piss in, never mind the piss. But I found that $150. I just knew that it was the answer. Unfortunately, it took a couple of years to sink in, mostly because of forty years of beat-down, and partly because I'm thick-headed, so I'm told.

When I finally came to my senses and had enough of the anticivilization, I picked up the literature again. Thanks to Mr. Hamilton and his Neothink Society, I am back. Back on my feet and now growing wings. Soon I will be soaring high over your head with all that I am accomplishing because of The Twelve Visions and all the people that are helping me, and that I am helping. Mainly my girls.

My oldest is joining the Air Guard straight out of high school with a strong B+ average and second in command in the JROTC, all with a special disorder. And my little one is a hard nut to crack; anything goes with that one, but I'm ready.

I cannot thank Mr. Hamilton enough for showing me how to be a self-leader, for helping me realize that I am special, and for giving me – well, that $350 for the books was nothing; if I had a million I'd give it to him – and for being able to teach this to two of the most wonderful daughters, whom I tell every day that they are special. That is the best part, who I'm teaching this to.

In closing, I would take a bullet for this man, ah, make it a full mag. I can take it now.

Thank you, Neothink Society, from the bottom of my now glorious heart. I love you.
