Rate this book
Most of my patients never return after their first session. I guess it’s hard for them to accept the way I peacefully accept the fact they are nothing
more than random sperm in the galaxy.
When I confront them with questions such They run away.
Not everyone.
A handful of brave ones stay. For a long time.
They go through a journey, at the end of which they can accept life for what it is, they

even think creatively and playfully about their lives.
I’ve compiled into this book 10 central topics, and in the end, if you possess enough
courage and humor, you might restore your own control of your life, and live to the
fullest. Since, after all

No, it's not stupid. Yes, it's blunt.

But I think it is limited, precisely, by its materialism, nihilism and miserable view of human life: most human beings are really useless, think for yourself and elevate above others, run away from pain and sorrow and if you have some time left build some relationships with others.
It's the classic: enjoy life as it is, since we have only one for few years, and we have just this world you perceive with your senses, take the most delight and pleasure you can, there's no meaning (in suffering e.g.) and there is nothing before and nothing after it.
No need to leave anything into this world.

In the end, you remain some aimless grown up "random sperm" that lives on this Earth, exactly the thing you supposedly wanted to detach yourself from.

Not as funny as the cover promises it to be.
