Gary Busey Says He Wants to Spread Love Through His 'Buseyisms'
*By Carlo Versano*
After surviving a near-fatal motorcycle accident, Academy Award-nominated actor Gary Busey claims to have visited "the other side." Now he's out with his own "Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth" ー an autobiography he calls "Buseyisms."
What, exactly, is a *Buseyism*?
Take the word "faith." Busey-fied, the word becomes an axiom that Busey said he lives by:
*Fantastic Adventures In Trusting Him*
Or "freedom":
*Facing Real Exciting Energy, Developing Out Of Miracles*
Or "relationship":
*Really Exciting Love Affair Turns Into Overwhelming Nightmare, Sobriety Hangs In Peril*
Busey, who was raised Christian and publicly struggled with drug addiction and the effects of a traumatic brain injury sustained in a 1988 motorcycle accident, wants "Buseyisms" to show readers by example how he survived difficult times to become a better person. But don't call it an advice book. Busey said his "ordinance" now is to spread love.
"It's a beautiful feeling to love others first," he said. "But before you can love others first, you must learn to love yourself."
An ancient Christian mosaic bearing an early reference to Jesus as God is at the center of a controversy that has riled archaeologists: Should the centuries-old decorated floor, which is near what's believed to be the site of the prophesied Armageddon, be uprooted and loaned to a U.S. museum that has been criticized for past acquisition practices?
Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy are calling Michael Oher's claims that they enriched themselves at his expense “outlandish," “hurtful and absurd" and part of a “shakedown” by the former NFL offensive tackle, whose relationship with the family was the inspiration for the movie “The Blind Side."
