I've learned so much from Cullen, for example: how to take one day at a time; also, what a satisfying exercise it is to wish for the happiness and joy of someone with whom you have a conflict. That is the ultimate forgiveness. Many other lessons come from this beautifully-written, amusing and (often) heartbreaking story.  I wept when Cullen talked about lying down on the floor of his tiny cell and covered himself with fall leaves sent from home by his girlfriend. Congratulations to the author for a surprisingly mature and heartfelt memoir about a crushing event in his life. Amazingly, it not only left his soul intact, but created a spiritual master with the power to heal everyone who reads his book.
