We all know what it feels to be happy but do we know what it is? We all know what the feelings of love and anger are, but do we know the mechanisms of its orchestration? Well, do we need to?Poetry is similar to feelings; we don't need to know what all the words mean as long as we feel it inside of ourselves. We don't need to know the poet's perspective to create our own. You don't need to know the word blue to know that the sky is.The word- filled pages are about all the things that you wish you said. All the things you have thought. All the things you wish were true. It inscribes all of it yet none at once. This is not some guide of happiness, some profound work of literature, which would help you to find the meaning of it all. This is your everyday musings of love, your daily struggle with being a juvenile, the injustice of the way the world works and much more.This book 'Sober Love Of Drunken Truths' pirouettes between the little poems of wonder and the long-drawn pieces of literature. You'll find yourself skipping to a new feeling with every page. The book will not take you through a smooth journey and leave you at a preconditioned destination, rather, like life itself, it will spring new feelings every couple of pages, and when, you turn the last page and wonder at the abruptness of the ending, you will realize that you didn't need it in the first place. You always knew it in your heart. Just like life. You always know the meaning of everything that happened when the end draws close.The poems like 'Saudade', talk about the unconventional ways of finding love but never being able to bask in it. While drastically on the other hand 'Blood Wins The Battle' talks about the passage of blood in wars. Some poems don't even have a title for I believed that the use of one will degrade its importance. These 'title-less' pieces tell us about people, whose beauty cannot be encompassed in a mere 100 words, it makes us aware of the scuffles of life and leaves us pondering over the idiosyncrasy of what we call life. The book is essentially split into two parts, a) Sober love and b) Drunken truths. The 'Sober Love' part of the book deals with not only romanticized love but also what it is to love life. It talks about the first time you see the one you are going to fall in love with, to the time when you have to part. It converses with us about the love that remains unrequited, and the ones that are fulfilled. All the desires and pain.The drunken truths tell well, drunken truths. The way life loses itself while you continue with your bland existence. The anger that boils inside with being treated less when you know more. What the sad truth of the system is, the blood, the lies and, the misguided ties. What is the first thing you notice when you wake up in the morning? Do we see the sun or feel its warmth? We feel the warmth. We feel things before we see them. We feel them before even knowing what it is. Even before understanding what we feel. This book is just that, a feeling. You don't need to try and understand what it means. You'll just know it. As said by Walt Whitman, "The words of my book nothing, the drift of it everything." Nothing explains my book the way this quote does.I don't want to get into details of the book. I don't want to ruin the first time wonder of reading something. The human brain works on novelty and who am I to disregard its wishes? All I can wish for is that it reaches the right audiences. I hope that people recite my poetry in numerous places and more importantly that, they like it. Once again quoting Walt Whitman "There are no great poets, without great audiences."

Where do you turn for hope when you already have the answer--but the answer isn't working? As a long-time Christian, Heather Kopp never expected to become an out-of-control alcoholic who kept private stashes of booze all over the place--tucked behind books in her study, zipped into a special compartment in her oversized purse, at the back of her closet stuffed inside her boots. Even as her career and marriage teetered on the brink, Kopp couldn't get a grip, desperately hiding the true extent of her drinking from the rest of the world--her husband included. During the day she wrote books about God and prayer and family. At night she'd locked herself in her bathroom to guzzle chardonnay. For her, as for many Christians who struggle with addiction, overwhelming shame and confusion only made things worse. Why wasn't her faith enough to save her? Why didn't repentance, Bible reading and prayer work? Where was God? Meanwhile, as she watched in horror, her grown son descended into his own nightmare of drugs and alcohol. She feared for his life, yet she couldn't stop drinking long enough to help him--or find a way out for herself. Until the day everything changed. Engaging, funny and bracingly honest, Kopp shares her remarkable journey into darkness...and back to the light again. Her story reveals the unique challenges and spiritual conundrums Christians face when they become ensnared in an addiction, and the redemption that's possible when we finally reach the end of ourselves. If you love Jesus but shop too much, drink too much, eat too much, crush on men who aren't your husband, or otherwise fixate on doing things you hate but can't stop doing, SOBER MERCIES is for you. As you follow Kopp's sincere, stumbling journey toward freedom and a deeply satisfying relationship with God, you'll find renewed hope--and practical steps of recovery--for your own journey.

If you're a drinker, or have spent time with them, you know that sometimes, drunken words are sober thoughts. There's often a lot of truth to what comes out of our mouths when our inhibitions are lowered. Here's a chance to write down the thoughts you're having and even do a little drunken drawing. We don't ever get to time with our intoxicated selves. And so, we don't get to hear, first hand, their insights. This is a great time to get to know yourself better, or maybe just see how witty you are, after a few cocktails. If you have a regular drinking buddy, by one for them as a gift. You'll enjoy comparing notes on nights that you've gone out together. Or use it as a way to get in touch with the more private side of your inebriated other half. It can be anything you want it to be! Write drunk, edit sober! Or at least, analyze sober. Leave little notes for your tipsy counterpart. Remind them what's up! Enjoy, I'd love to see your best artwork and your most creative writing excerpts!

Suzanne Harrington did all the things that adults do, long before she'd grown up: met Leo, married, had babies. She also partied, was homeless for a while, and drank - and drank. She headed towards disintegration, with Leo at her side, locked deep in himself. Then, waking to the wreckage of yet another lost weekend, she stopped drinking - and Leo, her companion and enabler, became a stranger. They separated. Newly sober, and freed from her demons, Suzanne embraced life. Leo chose escape. Early one morning the police arrived. A body had been found hanging from a tree. When it was all over, and Suzanne had buried Leo, and helped her children to grieve, she sat down and wrote the story of their father's life. This is for them. It is for the memory of Leo. It is also for anyone who has partied too hard, found life unbearable, avoided the truth. It is like nothing you have read before, or will read again. It is touching, hilarious, brutally honest and utterly compelling.

This Naked Mind has ignited a movement across the country, helping thousands of people forever change their relationship with alcohol. Many people question whether drinking has become too big a part of their lives, and worry that it may even be affecting their health. But, they resist change because they fear losing the pleasure and stress-relief associated with alcohol, and assume giving it up will involve deprivation and misery. This Naked Mind offers a new, positive solution. Here, Annie Grace clearly presents the psychological and neurological components of alcohol use based on the latest science, and reveals the cultural, social, and industry factors that support alcohol dependence in all of us. Packed with surprising insight into the reasons we drink, this book will open your eyes to the startling role of alcohol in our culture, and how the stigma of alcoholism and recovery keeps people from getting the help they need. With Annie’s own extraordinary and candid personal story at its heart, this book is a must-read for anyone who drinks. This Naked Mind will give you freedom from alcohol. It removes the psychological dependence so that you will not crave alcohol, allowing you to easily drink less (or stop drinking). With clarity, humor, and a unique blend of science and storytelling, This Naked Mind will open the door to the life you have been waiting for. “You have given me my live back.” —Katy F., Albuquerque, New Mexico “This is an inspiring and groundbreaking must-read. I am forever inspired and changed.” —Kate S., Los Angeles, California “The most selfless and amazing book that I have ever read.” —Bernie M., Dublin, Ireland
