Being an Independent Thinker by Thinking of Others (ePub)

Throughout the ages people have used ancient scripture, made reference to the words of past queens and kings or have attempted to validate their claims by documenting bits and pieces from recognizable authority figures to support their ideas and writings. I believe that to a high degree it is done to give their perspective validity. In a deeper sense it may potentially be used to corner the reader to a predetermined train of thought. You see every book I read and each topic I researched had what I interpreted as a biased representation of facts. The author or writer seemed to lead and tailor their writing to their way of thinking; how they viewed life, which in the grand scheme of things that is why people write. I am doing neither and desire to have you be the judge. In the process of putting this book together I sought input from various people as I was getting close to finalizing this project but out of respect to all that will purchase and read this material I reserve the crediting and discrediting of the material to be left in your hands. I took on this endeavor as a 'bucket list' item but along the way I began to feel obligated to share some insight, my insight on the many topics that I will be touching on throughout the book but the more I began to read up on and write about the clearer the message that I was to deliver became. My wish is that you open your mind and take what is been read, what is being talked about and what is being seen and regardless of the person writing, saying or doing those things, you take it in. Reason with it. Seek to understand it. Once you've done that form your own conclusion. After all it is your life, your thoughts and your beliefs. The idea behind what I have written is that you expand your belief system to accept things that resonate with your own thoughts because there is only one you in this universe and my wish is that you become the best you that you can be by being the only person that sets limits to your belief system. May your life be that of continuous growth.
