It used to be that you could go out and cut wood, trap beaver, Pan for gold… you’re only limitation with nature. And if you needed it to be your only friend it was there for you and you could still make a living out of her instead of relying on man. Those things seem to be falling by the wayside. We seem to be forced into relying on other people more and more.

In Sunday school the question was opposed to the class, can God make a rocky cannot lift?

The question that comes to mind thus is can man create a lock he cannot pick or break into? The obvious question is why would he want to? I’m talking about a lock that no one can get into.

When I got sober I should have turned my back on the world and stood by my grandmother instead of the other way around. I left her alone and the world has left me alone.

We’re often get living and loving confused. People are often looking for a loving relationship where there’s a lot of living going on. I mean excitement, adventure, stimulation… Is that a good reason for loving someone? For marrying them?? For being partnered with them? Ask yourself!

If you look at Adam-and-Eve, mama the very same transgressions have been repeated over and over and over. One of their principal sins, knowledge that only God should have. Therefore, they wanted to be more godlike.. So is it so surprising that man is moving towards a man made world where he is God? Is it surprising that many of us refuse to rely on God, but rather on ourselves and each other. One big happy family, one big happy family of happy family of man void of God. I mean who needs God, HE can’t relate to us, we can’t relate to HIM… Imperfect as we are, at least we can relate to each other -even if we don’t care much for each other at times. Isn’t that the increasing attitude of people today? Look at our actions.

Why do we turn to people instead of God?

•People seem more real

•Seem to care more

•Buy into our BS

•They are often willing to give us what we want (what they want), just not always what we need.

•Comfort us when it’s not wise to do so.

But…

•God has unlimited resources, people don’t.

•People quite often operate from fear of: never having enough; being harmed; taken advantage of… God fears nothing and is therefore remains unmoved!

•God loves us so much, and is stable and consistent in HIS ACTIONS to such an extent WE DON’T KNOW WHAT TO MAKE OF HIM. When a parent refuses to bail out a child -the comeback is often “you don’t care about me” manipulation.

Sidenote: The (late fifties) sixties generation that rebelled against the forties generation, and the thirties generation, and the twenties generation… Presumably because of all the pie in the sky portrayals of American life. All the dirty little secrets hidden behind closed doors… I’m looking at a commercial and I don’t see much difference between then and now, if that’s the case. You think people are more real now than they were 80, 90, 100 years ago? You think people are more open about their dirty laundry these days? That is from a humble perspective?

Thank You Lord for what I have and for what I don’t! 🙏🏻

If you can’t be happy without a bunch of stuff y-ou probably won’t be happy (even) with a bunch of stuff.🤷‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️

After a full 2 weeks on eBay looking for the deal of a lifetime on a camera coma at least a decent deal that’s a you’ll that’s affordable to me and make sense, it’s, I ended this stretch by doing a “buy it now” on a scam. Well, the camera is in Selo Kilmez, Russia. Day over there is night over here. I thought about staying up just in case an offer finally came though though the seller didn’t seem particularly particularly open a responsive to my requests for an offer. I remember looking at the time around 10:20 PM, shutting off the TV and going to bed. Sometime after I went to bed I received an offer of a $150 discount. I woke up at 12:13 AM and checked my phone and spotted the offer in my email. When I opened up the eBay website to accept the offer it said the item had already been taken. Along with the offer was a message saying here is your offer you have requested and I hope you enjoy and find the camera a delight. Somebody else took advantage of the purchase at 11:44. Initially I was unhappy, even depressed. But then I got to thinking about calling eBay and noting my disappointment (old behavior). Then the principles kicked in, the ones I’ve been touting on this website for several months:

•People simply doing what people do [man is an opportunistic creature] often with little regard for, or at the expense of their fellows

•Don’t look for human sympathy

•Be happy for others by practicing what you preach

•Be thankful to the individual who gave an even greater discount ($150) in an already awsum deal @ $1950 for a a7r iii in almost new condition 4390 shots only. + the FE 4/24-105 OSS lens valued @ $1398 on b&h. Offer $1800.

•Be thankful to God for what HE has given you and what HE hasn’t given you. For everything there is a reason. And every reason can be put to good turn.

•Be grateful to yourself for working so hard on a deal, and perhaps someone in greater need will be able to benefit from.

And there you have it!

I can write about this stuff, but I can’t seem to make it a working part of my daily living except in very minute… How do I want to say this 🤔 It’s as if I am who I am. 1st of all the knowledge of these things comes and goes. Unless I’m writing about it/them, it’s as if they doesn’t exist at all. I mean it’s not like unconsciously carrying all this knowledge around and applying it. At least it doesn’t feel that way. I feel likeBernadette in the movie “The Song of Bernadette” 1941? Where she says “The Spring is not for me”.

Just as one cannot under ordinary, circumstances as we understand them to be, can a thing occupy two places at once, nor two things occupy the same place at once, you cannot perform an act from two different positions without getting two different effects -however subtle.

In our present state (and of mind) it is nearly impossible for us to truly understand one another. Chemistry, Soulmates…. are perhaps the closest we can come -but how rare is that? In addition to the state, the plane we live on, the frame of mind of conventional life for example here in America does not lend any help to this plight.

Next thing you know they’ll be charging us to include commercials on the television. They already are if you think about it. Who do you think pays for those ads

A normal life

Immaturity

Getting along with others*

If you have any issue(s) whatsoever with humanity -theyre likely going to show up, be revealed. I KNOW I DO! 😏

What if it were the same time all around the 🌎

You take eBay for example, there’s no connection, no means of cooperating with or coordinating with other buyers; disconnection is mandated! No regard for one another in this infrastructure. We should never be operating with disregard for one another.

Alot of people are partnered with people who, if they weren’t so attractive physically; emotionally and personally, they would not have them as a partner, a friend (partner). You cannot possibly be happy in a situation like this.

Once a man has made the decision to give up his freedom, give up his individuality for any reason whatsoever -he is already a slave, he is already doomed.

Subscriptions, renting… software… Don’t you see, corporate America is infringing on our power. They’re tipping the scales on costs. Inch by inch! If you stop buying they’ll back off! But you can’t stop buying because you’re separated from the things you love most and it leaves avoid. The powers that be have been working on this for a very long time a long time preparing (scratch that, setting up) a mass market hysteria.

Man often loses heart to come loses faith in God because time after time he fails to understand you understand that in order for god’s plan to succeed his own plan must often fail. For God’s prayers to be answered, be answered, our own prayers oftentimes there’s oftentimes must seemingly go unheard. Amen! 🙏🏻

Anyone in this country who gets in trouble for spending too much money, or for having or acquiring too many resources, has a fair argument in saying that this country is all about pushing purchases on its citizens at every opportunity. Especially if you are disabled or are mentally challenged to the point where you are easily encouraged.

They say people on social security are only allowed a limited amount of amount of resources. We’ve already had scares in the past regarding the government shutting down and government funded checks for the disabled ceasing. So why should people on social security limit the resources they have in the event of a national or global catastrophe?

The dangerous thing about human beings is that they can be programmed/nurtured to be as cold blooded …

In a world which is ever changing come in a world which is evolving downward rather than upward, in a world in a world where people believe the strong survive and the weak fall by the wayside, THE WEAK HAD BETTER BE VERY CONCERNED!

IS IT BENEFICIAL?

IS IT FULFILLING?

DOES IT BRING YOU PEACE?

DOES IT BRING YOU CLOSER TO GOD, OTHERS, SELF? REMOVE BARRIERS?

Why do businesses lower prices and have sales? Do they do it because they want to show kindness to the general public? Think about it, do businesses ever do anything out of kindness? If the answer is no, then let’s explore some of the reasons.

• Going out of style

• Going bad

• Competition

• New line coming out

• Not selling fast enough (in a particular size)

In other words they need to stimulate movement for whatever reason before they lose money. So businesses really aren’t our friend and perhaps should not be treated as such.

Two things

I’m watching the movie calm of “The Is Philadelphia Experiment 2” with Brad Johnson. Totalitarian government, had to look it up get up to be sure. I put in totalitarian and of course that’s exactly what I was aiming for. Thank you Lord 🙏🏻

This and George or Wells 1980, This and George Orwell’s 1984Interestingly enough the movie takes place in 1993 hype-a play on the George Orwell novel? Anyways calm the thing about these 2 is that they’re filled with lots of concrete signifying man’s dominance in this culture. Anyways, back to the 2 things:

1. It is a very grab, Base existence. Lifeless, emotionless, the antithesis of God’s beautiful, blue, green, yellow, red world.

2. It hinges on man’s reliance or submission to man. With mankind’s history are you sure you wanna go there? We are moving towards a direction where people will ultimately believe there is no other solution. And that’s a lie! While we’re on the subject calm and the premise behind the Anti-Christ rising to power is that human beings no longer believe that God nor themselves are the answer to the world’s problems but someone else. I strongly suggest you start developing some belief in your ability to make a difference in the world otherwise you’re gonna end up relying on something else and you’re not gonna like where it takes you! 🤷‍♂️
