Money does a lot of things -including holding people back. Including placing a veil over certain realities.

Egotistical people, in general, do not tend to speak about the ego.

Alot of people in this town take one look at me and they think i think I’m better than them – So before I even open my mouth what do you think there attitude is when we come face-to-face? Cold, haughty… How do I know this?

There are people you cannot turn no matter how kind and loving and why you’re swaying. But there are those you can turn away who would otherwise who would otherwise turn to God had you been better in your….. We must never turn away an opportunity… and since God is the last word on all said opportunities -we must in all cases attempt to…

Doing the opposite of what is wrong will only take you so far. At some point in our lives we must learn the true meaning of what it is to be good -and then act accordingly. Many of the laws and principles of this country were founded on many of the negative experiences our Founding-Fathers had back in “Jolly-Old”. But that will only take us so far.

In Alcoholics Anonymous, in recovery for example -For my 1st few years I lived by the philosophy of “not dying -rather than living.” “Not screwing up -rather than being a positive, useful presents to those around me”.

I know of no better way to convince people a person has changed then to give a lot and accept very little.

Love never goes to waste; and Love is never a waste of time -even if it’s one sided.

A lot of people can’t see what’s underneath. -And a lot of people don’t want to see what’s underneath

I’ve met people who are willing to throw money away on themselves but are not willing to spend a dime on another human being. I guess the more of something you have the more you take it for granted.

A lot of people think the town I live in is very poor but that’s only half true. There are plenty of people in this town with money who are willing to pull it out if they have a good enough reason to. And when they don’t there is shrewd as a…. And then there are those people with lots of money who go about things like their flat broke. Trying to save a dollar at a pawn shop when they’re millionaires. I’ll tell you another little story, I remember this guy saying to me one time “Don’t show my wife that we’re all in the pavement to buy it for her”. Meanwhile, he was over there in the gun section looking at at an $800 pistol for himself at the local dumshow if 🤔 I remember correctly.

Sometimes I have trouble coming up with things to talk about.- But things to talk about are everywhere! Things to write about are everywhere apparently – Cause they just keep coming out and coming out and coming out and coming out… Day after day, year after year………………………… 🤷‍♂️

As I was saying, you can talk about anything -I guess one way of stimulating ideas of conversations is to go out and live life and do things so that you have some things to talk about with other people.

I’ll give you an example: There I was, Age 15 years old -in the middle of a wrestling match in a tournament.. When all of a sudden the thought came to my mind that but even though there were rules to the match I could use any number of things to escape escape from the position I was in it was in -I tried that and it worked Sometimes there’s rules and sometimes there’s not rules. I think a lot of the time we don’t take advantage of the part where there is no rules often enough.

In Alcoholics Anonymous there’s a difference between bullying people and telling them what they don’t want to hear to stay sober. – Naturally though, the people on the other end of it probably don’t know the difference. Wouldn’t admit the difference!

Many years ago 25% interest was considered lone sharking-it still is!
