To Find Pleasure in the Impossible. To Art Janov

Art,
The following words fell from my pen, after I had  been emotionally stimulated and inspired by BONO’s article in The New York Times about Sargent Shriver:
JFK with all his pain and neurosis behind his superior talent put a man on the moon by combining science and faith into a perfect rhyme.
Art Janov by an innate intuition and love for humanity found the key to developing the principles of “Evolution in Reverse” to ease the pain and make us feel real.
A few years after the Primal Scream, Milos Forman, in his film “One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, with Jack Nicholson and Louis Fletcher as the super stars, revealed with irresistible charm and ruthless honesty for a flabbergasted world how we treat people with leaky gates and repressed pain.
USA and the world saw another radically different, pain driven, moon walk being performed by Michael Jackson.
For me and others in my generation they are some outstanding examples of what an environment that finds joy and pleasure in the impossible is capable of.
Thank you Art and The United States of America!
Jan Johnsson
