A beautiful essay about a brutal sport

Posted on 06/12/2018 by Dr Bob Rich

I wanted to hug British psychiatrist, Dr Benji Waterstones, after reading his wonderful words about Tyson Fury.

I don’t follow boxing, but got the history from the essay. Fury became world heavyweight boxing champion, then realised, being on the top doesn’t bring happiness. But now, he has overcome suicidal depression, drug and alcohol addiction, to get to the top again.

I am adding this essay to my collection of evidence for what is important in life. Please read.

I am a professional grandfather. My main motivation is to transform society to create a sustainable world in which my grandchildren and their grandchildren in perpetuity can have a life, and a life worth living. This means reversing environmental idiocy that's now threatening us with extinction, and replacing culture of greed and conflict with one of compassion and cooperation.
