Synopsis

Lust for Destruction is Inside All of Us...Or is It? Find Out How the World and Society are being Destroyed by Hatred and Violence. The world has become engulfed in hate, violence, and destructive behavior. It seems that every human being has a lust for destruction buried deep inside them – and it can present itself either through the destruction of others or even self-destruction.Just think about it...Most of us love everything that can potentially kill us – drugs, cigarettes, alcohol, unprotected sex, junk food, etc. Think of anything that can harm us, and there is a great chance that we already love it.But why do we have to be like that? Is it really that we are programmed to be destructive? Is it really in our nature to hate the world and be violent towards others?Charles Lovjoy is a professional actor, musician, and voice-over talent from Detroit, Michigan, who happens to love marijuana; junk food, Hip Hop, Gangster Rap, Rock & Roll, and scary movies.As an actor and musician, he worked with people from all walks of life who share similar interests and experiences. He has gotten the chance to meet and converse with a fascinating array of folks – foreign, domestic, "filthy rich," rich, homeless, poverty- stricken, young people, elderly, and everyone in between.Thug Life: The Lust for Destruction is Charles Lovjoy's collection of thoughts and first- hand experiences of these personal encounters and encounters with both the hatred and love in our society. Now, he wants to share those experiences with you, to prove that the destruction in any form is not natural because no human being wants violence and murder on their doorstep in real life.This book contains the wisdom of why people in society are so destructive and what can be done to change that, because ultimately, it will destroy us all. Are you ready to join the cause?
