Turn<strong>in</strong>g life around with simple message<br />

ByAnnL.Fouty<br />

Features Editor<br />

When 49-year-old Paul Wedd<strong>in</strong>g graduated<br />

from high school, he admittedly got <strong>in</strong>to some<br />

bad habits.<br />

, Those habits resulted <strong>in</strong> his homelessness, he<br />

said, until he had a spiritual awaken<strong>in</strong>g April 19,<br />

2Q03. After years of ignor<strong>in</strong>g a message to write<br />

a book, Wedd<strong>in</strong>g penned "If You Only Knew<br />

What You Already Know" <strong>in</strong> 2008. Sterl<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Heights book publisher Harmonic Park Press<br />

picked it up with<strong>in</strong> two days of Wedd<strong>in</strong>g's submission,<br />

A former resident of Grosse Po<strong>in</strong>te Park and<br />

son of a police officer, Wfedd<strong>in</strong>g has s<strong>in</strong>ce turned<br />

his life around and settled <strong>in</strong> Sterl<strong>in</strong>g Heights,<br />

though admits he misses the Grosse Po<strong>in</strong>tes.<br />

Wedd<strong>in</strong>g is now a speaker, radio show host and<br />

author.<br />

His 168-page book expla<strong>in</strong>s the necessity of<br />

"shedd<strong>in</strong>g components of ego and gett<strong>in</strong>g back<br />

to the natural self," he said.<br />

Wedd<strong>in</strong>g said the five components are: I am<br />

what 1 have; I am what I do; I am what others<br />

th<strong>in</strong>k of me; I am separate from others; I am<br />

separate from God.<br />

Instead of worry<strong>in</strong>g about other people's<br />

op<strong>in</strong>ion of us, he said we should be liv<strong>in</strong>g "authentically,<br />

liv<strong>in</strong>g through purpose."<br />

Wedd<strong>in</strong>g said people know <strong>in</strong>st<strong>in</strong>ctively how<br />

to treat others.<br />

"We know what is best for others," he said.<br />

When that m<strong>in</strong>d-set is put <strong>in</strong>to play, "th<strong>in</strong>gs<br />

will be better for you," he said. "People are the<br />

greatest resource. People aren't paper towels,"<br />

Wedd<strong>in</strong>g said.<br />

Wedd<strong>in</strong>g's radio show, The Power of the<br />

Human Spirit can be heard from 2 to 3 p.m.<br />
