^ I think there is a market for psychology book. Hhmm.... As for strength, I would put it at semi-strong. (I think strength, largely depends on the contents of the book.)

Psychology books were a starting point for me. They gave me food for thought and clues for things I might not have considered. When I didn't have an idea as to how to tackle certain things, they provided me with a guide.

Now, I like to try to think for myself more, come up with my own solutions because what I find is that sometimes there is a lot of fluff, and what I want is something I can actually use. Or by the time they get around to the really interesting parts/the meat/crux of the issue, they move onto something else.

For example, the one thing that bothers me, not just with psychology books, is this sort of lack of underscoring the importance of a medical checkup.... I am so very wary of psychologists and psychiatrists because if everyone on the planet went to see them, I would bet money that every person that walked out of their offices would have some sort of "issue", which to me means that their diagnoses should be checked and double-checked and triple-checked, if necessary.

^ I am praying for a strong winter full of deep ice and snow. That's the only way to kill off all the instects that feed on our crops and ensure healthy happy crops for summer.

> Right now, I'm figuring out my budget for the upcoming school semester. I'm supposed to be taking a nap as i haven't slept yet and it's already almost 6pm. Missed another nghts sleep....

v Do you ever wonder what it would be like to live without the pain? Seriously, have we become too comfortable in our misery? Has it become so familiar that even the thought of healing is frightening?

^Wouldn't call it 'comfortable', would say, I have at least, learned to deal with it and work around whatever the meds or doctors can do.

> Trying to calm my mind at the moment, just upset with a few things. Will deal with it.

v Do you think we put too much trust into our 'friends'?
