Click here to listen to the 60-minute  interview that was conducted on Sept 8 by Robert Rose, PhD. Excerpt below:

“…I think there’s something about the way human beings are wired that makes us want to turn over control and authority to someone else. I felt that tug at a couple points in the story I tell. Trouble is, other people tend to not know much more than we do. And getting direct access to something higher than other people is problematic. At some point, all of us run up against the fact that we don’t have the full picture. We don’t know why things still are the way they are. We have to assume that there is a reason. At least, that’s my assumption. And, if we truly are incapable of fixing things to our liking, seems to me, we have to find a way of being at peace with that. Now, one thing I’ve observed is that understanding this concept with my head is not the same as being able to do it well. I mean, finding peace is still a work in progress for me. Maybe that’s because I still don’t fully accept the premise that nothing can be done. Deep down, I still want to think that solutions exist for our problems.”

UPDATE: Dr. Rose has written a book of articles in which he ponders the lessons to be drawn from various interviews, including mine. Please contact him (icdrrose1 (at) gmail dot com) to purchase a copy at a very discounted price.
