LOS ANGELES - Dec. 12, 2019 - PRLog -- A MAN'S LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS by J. Richman is a creative and life-affirming collection of ponderings that expose the deep thoughts and feelings of a man who has lived a life full of diverse experiences and challenges. This uniquely constructed compilation of more than 300 reflections focuses on several areas of living, including intimate relationships and acceptance of human frailty, as well as the author's internal conflicts.

A MAN'S LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS homes in on the complications inherent in intimate relationships from the opening pages of the book: "Problems accrue when we confuse how a woman looks with who she is." Richman brings the perspective of a mature man to the lessons on love presented in the book, including, "Exploitation of another depreciates both parties," and "The reason we fall in love with flawed people is that that's the only kind of people there are."

In addition to offering a brief study of intimate relationships, A MAN'S LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS probes human frailty and offers readers guidance in accepting this fact. "We must learn to be strong enough to be gentle," brings into focus the need to deliberately work at treating people well. The author also encourages readers to show self-compassion when dealing with their own baggage: "Sometimes it's difficult to see beyond the wreckage of our lives, but we must! Take heart! We are more than our mistakes."

In A MAN'S LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS, Richman further challenges readers to take the reins of their lives when he says, "Name those things that you would do if you had no fear then do something about it." He offers words of caution regarding political rhetoric: "Beware of politicians who whip up emotions to make us suspicious of others unlike us." And rounds the book out by sharing his internal conflicts: "The world has bent me more than I have bent it"; "too often my logical mind and my emotional mind are hostile enemies"; "every time I look in the mirror, I expect to see a younger man."

A MAN'S LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS began as a series of notes that Richman wrote to himself. "I found that if I do not write out my true, and often painful, thoughts and feelings, I do not deal with them." Richman wishes a book like this one had been available when he was a boy because the knowledge enclosed could have assisted him in navigating his teenage and young adult years. He hopes A MAN'S LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS will assure men that they are not alone in their quiet musings. For women, Richman believes the book will provide a window into men's unexpressed emotions.
