Full Book Description 

         Our Sense of Wellbeing is about what it is to be human.  It is a new and unprecedented discovery and perspective of what our emotions are. Why do we get angry? Why are we depressed? What is the real meaning behind infidelity? What causes  divorce?

         The author takes us through a journey about our behavior unlike any other. Our Sense of Wellbeing asks, "What are our emotions and what do our behaviors mean?" "Where do they come from?" He makes clear the questions: "Why do I feel the way I do, and why do I do what I do?"

         Unlike our current thinking and belief, the author proposes that we have only two emotions. We feel and are either in our (1) sense of wellbeing or (2) state of disquiet or stress. All human emotions, behaviors, and activities are reflections of and fall only within these two categories.

         His hypothesis is that human emotions and behaviors are simple – not complex

         In this book he defines and explains what Wellbeing is — it will surprise you — and what drives it, by introducing his three very simple and obvious Principles of Continuity, Preservation and Replenishment: the driver, purpose and reason for all human behavior.

         Whether we are enjoying a romantic dinner out or engaged in an act of despicable violence, whether we are making love, stealing the Mona Lisa or writing a grand symphony, these seemingly different activities are driven by the same, singular human drive and motive: to achieve our sense of wellbeing, driven by the Principles of Continuity, Preservation and Replenishment.

         Through a story-telling approach, he reasons and describes how this conclusion, founded on five decades of reflection in attempting to understand human emotions and behavior, became a sudden epiphany.

         Our Sense of Wellbeing offers 14 real-life examples of ongoing human emotional struggles. It explains what the most basic need and expression of love is. It describes why we abuse each other, what causes infidelity and divorce, why the brain does not know the difference between enjoying wine and murder.

         The book exposes that our current beliefs regarding homosexuality, racism, suicide, rape and other violence and the desire for power or position in life are misconceptions and archaic. Our pursuit of happiness is a delusion and ludicrous.

         The author concedes that Our Sense of Wellbeing and the Principles of Continuity, Preservation and Replenishment will be met with much skepticism, at first. But, he is convinced that, within a short time and with basic consideration, his hypotheses will become so obvious, that the reader will no longer be able to see the world and human behavior any other way.

          Our Sense of Wellbeing may just be the beginning of truly understanding ourselves. Rejection of ideas is a self-defense reaction. Reflection is a first step toward enlightenment.
