Chris Martin was not feeling great when he got divorced from Gwyneth Paltrow, but he’s feeling pretty great now.

“A few years ago I was in a low place in my life and was feeling kind of down and confused,” he told Australian radio show 2DayFM. “Some friends gave me a book called Man’s Search for Meaning, and a poem called ‘The Guest’ House by an Afghanistani poet, teacher, and those two things started me off on this whole journey that’s ended up a few years later now where I just feel so happy to be alive.”

My mom gave me a copy of Man’s Search for Meaning and now I use it to roll joints on so it is honestly (according to both me and Chris Martin) very helpful. [E! News]
