  It’s insane to think that mass murder didn’t stop at the end of World War II. Since the Holocaust, various genocides have taken place in different areas of the world. In this book, we’ll talk about something that has often been shoved under the rug, but was definitely a consequence of the Vietnam War, the bombings by the Americans, and a domino effect into an already fragile political country: The nation of Cambodia. 
  The Cambodian genocide was the methodical abuse and death of Cambodians by the Khmer Rouge, led by Pol Pot, the general secretary of the Communist Party of Kampuchea, who pushed Cambodia towards being an entirely self-dependent agrarian socialist state. Between 1975 and 1979, 1.5 to 2 million people were murdered, representing about a quarter of Cambodia's population in 1975. (c. 7.8 million). 
  When we look back on this, their ideology seems completely paradoxical, far-fetched, and illogical. Yet, through a considerately high number of propaganda resources and sheer force, the coup forced millions of people from the cities to farmlands, leaving them there to die or be shot because of supposed conspiracies against the regime. Let’s take a deep dive into the history of this ancient Southeast Asian area and learn from what happened.

  Mindfulness and the idea that consciousness creates reality can seem pretty out there. 
  Blogger/Podcaster MJ Blehart works to use plain language, life experience, and his own trial-and-error actions to help define and create a Kickass Life. You Are Amazing is not just a statement of fact, but a recognition of your ability to create an incredible life for yourself. 
  How to Create a Kickass Life explores how to work with overcoming fears, uncertainties, recognizing truths about the human condition, and using our thoughts, feelings and intentional actions to be amazing and build incredible lives. MJ is just like you, a fairly regular person who has experienced both mundane and unbelievable things. 
  Working with mindfulness and awareness, MJ brings you an approachable angle towards living an amazing, full life, and recognizing how truly amazing you can be. There's some hooky-spooky BS here, because it's not all BS and totally out-there weirdness. But also, a self-aware journey into living the best possible life we can. Choosing and deciding to recognize how amazing you are is a keystone in this lifetime process. 
  Wouldn't it be cool to stop worrying about things and lead a satisfying life?
