My year of living vulnerably

not applicable

[written and] read by Rick Morton

In early 2019, Rick Morton, author of acclaimed, bestselling memoir One Hundred Years of Dirt, was diagnosed with Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, which, as he says, is just a fancy way of saying that one of the people who should have loved him the most during childhood didn't. So, over the course of 12 months, he went on a journey to rediscover love. To get better. Not cured, not fixed. Just, better. This is an audiobook about his journey to betterness, his year of living vulnerably. It's an audiobook about love. What love is, how we see it, what forms it takes, how we practice it in our lives, what it means to us and how we really, really can't live without it, even if, like Rick for many years, we think we can. As he says, 'People think they want cars and they will, to get to jobs and appointments in cities and regions where public transport has failed them. But what gets them into those cars, out of the house, out of bed for God's sake, is love.'
