"From Wishful Thinking To True Transformation by James Partick Holden c2004 James Patrick Holden has written a book entitled: From Wishful Thinking to True Transformation. One of the meditations centers around a belief that ""joy is a natural state."" How adamantly some may argue against this, or despair of ever finding it, but Holden offers hope, a balm, and a belief that there is an anchor to hold onto. These meditations are soulful and soothing, obviously formed in the author from a life centered on daily devotion, prayer, and contemplation. This is a useful book, a calming presence of a book in such stressful times as these. Please read it. Kathleen McCann (Poet) 389 Longwood Drive Venice, FL 34285 mccannk87@gmail.com"
