"Ken Jensen has put together a piece of art that is usually reserved for the finest song writers.
It is a rare moment when someone reaches in, puts their heart on the table, and lets the whole world see it. Kenny has had a long road of ups & downs, and he is at a position in his life to share with others what he has learned. All along that long hard road, Kenny has always displayed strong character.
I first met Ken in the Marines around 1987. What a unique time that was. We had similar experiences leading up to meeting, and shared a whole mess of good times from that point on. Some of the best involved camping in the desert and appreciating the wonders of nature. He first impressed me as a seeker. Ken was always seeking new ideas. He is an excellent example of how a person can grow through self-reflection and thoughtfulness.
Another of Kenny’s qualities is his loyalty. Here is a guy who would give his life for a friend. Through thick and thin, Kenny’s friendship has remained as constant as a northern star. His genuine love of his family has been the mainstay of this attribute; Semper Fidel Kennus (that’s Latin, you know). Kenny also has the most valued character trait of all – honesty. He is a very authentic person who communicates at a level which can best be described as transparent. This is something we all should strive for.
His book is a testament of someone who has initiated a path to healing one’s soul. I applaud his organized way of addressing the illness of bi-polar disorder and his promotion of positive ways to cleanse your mind, body, and soul. He is a living testament that we are not rooted in an engrained pattern of behavior. We can all change and grow, for the better. "
