...going. They even spelled Rhodes wrong; they spelled it "Roads." Again, they had no idea, but they were just so supportive. When I got to the game after winning, they dumped water on me in a cold ice bath in 20 degree weather at Maryland, just to express their joy. It meant...
...world was quite apt [Nov. 17]. Earlier this year, while my family and I were having dinner in Coullier, France, and discussing the upcoming election, a woman overheard us and very seriously said, "The whole world is watching." I regarded the statement as overdramatic - until I saw the joy with which the international community reacted when Obama was elected.

Every day the same horses go around inside our heads. Old grievances, unforgotten pain, resentment, anger, failure and insecurity - the circle keeps turning." Through his books, videos and workshops, Chopra offers a ticket off that merry-go-round. He is hardly to blame if, to date, there has been no shortage of takers...
