POPSMarcus Luttrell, Author Of Best-Seller "Lone Survivor" Tons of you are reading “Lone Survivor,” the NYTimes best-seller I’ve spotlighted here and here. Now, there’s this incredible news from Hollywood gossip columnist Nikki Finke. Tinseltown wants to make a movie out of the book: I hear there’s a frenzied Hollywood bidding war going on today over the No. 1 book on The New York Times non-fiction bestseller list: Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes Of SEAL Team 10 by Marcus Luttrell. Studio toppers are interrupting their vacations to try to get this book which was sold to Little Brown by superagent Ed Victor for a seven figure advance. How interesting that liberal Hollywood is hot for this patriotic tell-all by a proud conservative.

POPSCHRONIC PAIN IS AN EPIDEMIC
No library of books or bank accounts drained for money to pay for unsuccessful treatments can begin to speak of the devasting physical, monetary and emotional losses that are at the root of a LIFE unlived, promises unfulfilled, hopes and ambitions that fuel the bonfire of desperations that rage inside the human psyche. As long as you have your health you can change your circumstances (give up the mind chatter about all the reasons why you can't) and LIVE...just live out the what and who of your Being. Therein lies the answer to you maddening questions, the light in the darkness of the crater you roam endlessly, a lone and weary survivor of despair and melancholy. Why do we go on? Despite all our efforts to balance the tangible manifestations of our corporeal existence, we are swept into a maelstrom of futile corrections, ports of call that promise to HEAL, and a bankrupt Soul. We witness the last rites of our simple leaving only to be awakened again and again...still bound.
