As the way things stand now -a lot of men have to do without a woman unwillingly. In order for things to change now -a lot of men have to do without a woman willingly. But we men are too weak and too greedy and too selfish. π€·ββοΈ
Do you think we should aspire to come or admire the approach and the responses of people in the dating game in this country given it lack luster history? Look at the way men approach women. And look at the reception of most women. Most men are hunting and most women are either hunting themselves or carry an attitude of entitlement.
It was recommended to me on my counselor to get on to -One of the major social media websites. One of the things I immediately found rather interesthing when initiating a chat with a woman, Is a little prompt that shows up immediately saying offer a compliment and choose from these by clicking here. I thought that very odd yesterday. But this morning I realized 2 things: People out in the world seldom compliment. As a result of this lack of practice most probably don’t even know how to give one anyways -hence the offer of selection to choose from on this website. THIS WORLD MAN! π SIGHS. I give compliments all the time -and I know how to give them.
This country is filled with men who kiss women’s asses. Like my friend Anna says, “what happened to their balls?” I’ve seen a lot of black men cater to women. On the other hand, I’ve seen many Mexican men on the other end of the spectrum. They don’t even have respect for their women. And before you go crying racism here, I’m part Hispanic. My dad was a primary example of this. If it’s OK for a black man to call another black man a n*****. Then I guess it’s OK for a Hispanic man to criticize his own race right? Like I stated previously, one of the stupidest things I’ve ever witnessed is white men have been called into Washington to testify if they’ve ever used the word n*****. Did they bother to call one black man in there and do the same? No! And if you don’t think black men use that word, you must be living under a rock. What’s my point? Is it less offensive when it’s used by a black man than a white man? No it isn’t!
People say I shouldn’t judge. But where do I get that from? Americans and from what I understand people in general are extremely judgmental of one another. Some people will even attempt a technical explanation as to the validity and importance of doing so. Women do it all the time in the name of self preservation. But when I do it…
There’s nothing worse than wanting something so bad, but having to deny yourself, because you know it wouldn’t be good for you. Food is the 1st thing that comes to mind. The 2nd thing is getting involved in a relationship with the majority of people in this country – As a matter of historical-record, most human beings aren’t very nice people all the time. I think that’s my problem. My attitude indicates that people are not a very healthy diet for me. As much as I would love to have one in my life much like an overreater would love to have a piece of chocolate cake. It’s torturous having to deny oneself, but it comes down to a matter of self-preservation, and self-love!
One thing of young man told me many years ago is that women are worse than men. π€·ββοΈ
I saw a movie where in my opinion they degraded women by saying, by inferring… look what women ate willing to do to survive. It wasn’t a pretty picture.
People get conditioned and they don’t even realize it, and if it’s to their benefit they don’t even want to change it. This applies to a lot of women and men in different ways
Women are not the only ones who have been hurt
Alot of women whether by conditioning or by conscious expectation expect us men to compete with the other men out there. Perhaps because there’s women they have been conditioned to have to compete among one another. At the end of the day or by circumstance, man is still very much an animalistic creature!
They tell you when Alcoholics Anonymous and in counseling not to have expectations of others where to keep them low. But h***, everyone in this country has an expectation of someone. Women of their husbands. Fathers of their children⦠the employers of their employees. The American people of their politicians

********************It dawned on me this evening after talking to a woman on Facebook who has 5 children. She told me about how she had been struggling to make ends meet. So I offered to give her some she was ever able to get across the border. She said nobody does anything for free. That’s the kind of experience she’s been having in life. A woman severely in need surrounded by people who want something for something. I felt compassion for this woman. My attitude and my demeanor have been different for the last hour hour and a 1/2 ever since. It also made me realize what I continually carry around is a lack of compassion for women based on my own pain and feelings of being rejected.
A lot of other countries don’t consider certain things as insults like we do here.
*FACEBOOK Oftentimes life can be an escalator going down while we’re trying to go up. And the thing of it is, in order to go up we have to make an effort that outdoes life itself. Because if we don’t outdo and outlast life, then we will surely go down or backwards, rather than up and forwards. π€·ββοΈ
I know this isn’t easy for some of you to hear -as is the case with me -being a number one offender. Many of us Americans think we know-it-all; as is the case in many countries around the world. But there are also many people around the world who are not only humble -but recognize their own ignorance [->the capstone of humility?]. These people quite often are open, and as a consequence; absorb new information, and suggestions readily*. I think many of us should take notice of their invaluable example.π
None of us is perfect. We’re all on a journey, and if we’re lucky we continue to learn aome things along the way.

Each person has their own rules. And sometimes that’s a good thing and sometimes it’s not. Sometimes it’s a better thing and sometimes it’s not-speaking of individuality that is. Society doesn’t have all the right answers -trust me!
A lot of people speak their mind [like me]*. It’s not necessarily a bad thing and it’s not necessarily a good thing. But I know there’s a lot of things in this society that are deemed inappropriate or rude when they shouldn’t be. Some of it is the content but most of it is the person’s intention. What I’m trying to say is there’s a lot of content this day that’s red flagged that shouldn’t be. Additional income there’s not nearly enough emphasis put on a person’s intent. We judge people merely from what we observe and based upon our own perceptions strictly in many cases.
*It’s not so much that I’m bold as that I tend to have a thinner filter than most people do.
What do you suppose the are for a relationship lasting where each person gives 100%? Then just imagine the numbers at 50%!
How difficult do you suppose it is to give 100% to your relationships continuallyβ½ Well frankly, qith all the distractions and superficialitiies going on in this country today the answer to that question is NEAR IMPOSSIBLE [IMPOSSIBLE]. So what does that tell us? It tells us that as long as we continue to live under this sort of reality, our relationships will continue to be at risk, and sub-quality!
Today it’s the pain of certain realities that have just about been around since the beginning of man’s existence [being booted from the [GARDEN]. What that makes me realize is that I’m nearing the end of the road and entering a new one. For the last 33 years I have strived to address my issues in the hope of being rid of my suffering and problematic life. Now I believe I am coming to the place where most of my issues have been largely resolved and what’s left are life-problems, and the problems plaguing humanity from the start. What I know now is that my life will never be pain free. Only that I have the choice each day not to be a part of the problem -which you people have taught me.
- if a skilled craftsman is plying his trade while scrambling an egg, talking on the phone, and worrying about how he is going to pay his electric bill… how many of us are juggling just like this while trying to have relationship with their wife, husband, children, GOD, and of course our selves! π€·ββοΈπ€·πΌββοΈ
However you get it -get it!

Is it honest, is it true, and is it sincere?
Just because it happens to be true doesn’t mean we should mention it necessarily.
Your heart not only has to be protected but it has to be prepared. And going through life day-to-day whether we know it or not, whether we are willing or not, we are preparing our heart for the emotions that will come back and radiate both inwardly and outwardly. What we do in life and what we experience in life prepares our heart for the very things that it was made to manufacturer or radiate. Various organs in the body secreteβ¦. The heart, the emotional heart secretes…
When a person goes against their own defense mechanisms even though they’re unhealthy calm and they do it too quickly.. It can have a worse effect than the actual consequences of the defense mechanism itself.
I get the feeling that a lot of women these days don’t want a man who’s a pig but they don’t want him to reserve their proper either to the point where hes boring.
It was hard enough when things were a little more in our favor to make a relationship work. These days it seems almost impossible. And from what I understand and tell me going to get worse.
*****I guess what I was trying to say in the meeting today is that if you think you’re ever going to get well enough that you no longer feel pain [in life] [or that all your pain is going to go away -maybe that -but where did the pain start to begin with? LIFE and life has a habit of repeatingitselfno matter how well WE GET] or no longer have problems… GUESS AGAIN!
There’s what we focus on and there’s how we look at things. These all affect our emotional and mental and physical and spiritual States. Remember what I said earlier about having to prepare our hearts, our emotional hearts. I have been reckless all of my life in this regard.
I’m guessing a lot of people aren’t very healthy. I’m guessing the environment were operating within is not very healthy. What I’m saying is all of these things are not unrelated to our establishing relationships to one another. I’m guessing the majority of it is having a direct impact on our ability to establish relationships between one another. The relationships in humanity is where our strength and power lies. And when we start thinking individually calm when we start thinking about ourselves in all these sick and twisted ways, hour place in relation to the whole of humanity, those relationships are generally what people focus on, try and effect, manipulate, exploit, conquer… Or try and be apart of!
Even though women say they don’t like being treated a certain way by a man, they’re overblown ego and their deflated self esteem and their heritage all betray them.
It’s not just that women don’t trust their husbands or their boyfriend’s, they don’t trust other women. Look at a man who’s got a beautiful woman and have jealous he. He’s going to secure he gets. And men tend to be the more intellectual than he. You imagine a woman with a highly attractive man? The female of the species is probably more competitive when looking for the right man to create a nest and bear offspring with and brings stability to that process than a man is.
There’s not just a lot of hurt in this country there’s a lot of arrogance. Both of those are deadly to form in relationship.

Sometimes what we don’t do is the most spiritual thing in the world-Buddhism? What’s the main purpose of the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous? Is it to get us back on our feet spiritually and live right and have a right relationship with our creator? Once you begin to do that instinctively again is that called living the program and the steps rather than working them? I don’t seem to be doing much workgladly as far as the 12 steps go in practicing a lot of the suggestions formally, but I am trying to live right and do right by God Teachings.
You know what I think rich? I think you got something supernatural going on here, and I think God’s on top of it all the way!
With us human beings it’s largely about competition. Some are qualified and a lot of others lie and manipulate and pretend. The ones that aren’t exactly qualified and aren’t willing to lie though why and manipulate ant pretend… Well you know the story about nice guys finishing last right? And now you know why so many men lie. Because women have little sympathy for their plight. When they should in fact. If women were more empathetic men would be less inclined to have to manipulate.
If I’m willing to give everything I own to someone I don’t know can you imagine what I’d be willing to do for the people I do? If Jesus was willing to give his all to those who didn’t know him, can you imagine what he would be willing to do for those who do?

I was told earlier this morning that I don’t necessarily have the best social skills and that I talk excrssively. Do you remember when Luke Skywalker 1st met yoda? He would do a lot of talking and he was going through Luke’s things without permission. Like a person who had no social etiquette or awareness of others whatsoever. He was like a child who didn’t know any better. Whether or not this was strictly the case or if he was testing Luke I’m not sure. But you can be sure that yoda had it on the ball a lot more than the rest of us. As with God however our ways are not his. In American society we like to pride ourselves as being all grown up. And what exactly do we have to show to be so proud of in this society for being all grown up? Most of our relationships are a mess. Are children are in crisis as is the future of this once great country. Everything I just mentioned is the epitome of a great country not the wealth and a surplus and the power.
JESUS didn’t come down here because everything was fine in the world! And with regard to your argument about whether or not Jesus actually existed, we know this much calm of the world is definitely a need of a Jesus to come down here into the world and save it. Some people try to play this down. But answer me this, if the world isn’t so bad then why are so many in this country filled with fear and mistrust these days? The either have an overblown sense of reality or our societies are riddled with people to be feared and mistrusted. Now you tell me which it is?

Some men don’t care about what the women want comment what matters is what they want to.. But I care because I want something mutual.
Some men don’t care if the woman wants to be no longer in their life, all they care about is that the woman is in their life.
Some women want you to fight for them. Some men are willing to fight for a woman even though that woman is not necessarily invested in him. Some women will start a fight and have their man finish it for them. Well that’s a woman that really cares.

“THEY’RE JUST PEOPLE!” Some people develop a fixation or a complex to the point where people have tremendous power over them. There’s that Yin-Yang again. If there are people who have a God complex. Then it only stands to reason that people have a deity complex with regard to human beings. At least in one instance I believe it refers to being stuck in thstage of development where human beings towering over us appear to be God’s. I think that applies to me some. You could probably produce people like this wfor sale with a minimal amount of understanding of how this comes about. Aren’t we human beings simply fascinating on both sides of the microscope?

I should have done this Facebook dating differently. I should have went in thinking along the lines of the highest standards. Quality rather than quantity. I’m not saying I was looking for 20 women because that is not the case. But I went in there with the attitude of throwing out 20 lines once I kind of figured out what was going on, hoping to meet one and a couple of friends. That is the absolute truth! But I think things also were a little bit hazy walking in. We have to be sure of what we want, that is a must! We have to be sure of what we want as much as is possible before we walk into a situation not during or after. It’s so easy to get into trouble otherwise. I can’t afford to let whatever feelings or notions floating around in my brain to derail me from what at this stage I think I have a pretty clear idea about.
I talked on the phone yesterday with the gal I met on Facebook. I had mentioned that I was frustrated because you ask people how they are and how their day went and… And they either don’t answer you or they answer you one time and then you don’t hear from him again when you proceed to the next call conversation. She told me that women want to be interested. They don’t just want to get the standard initial interaction. Which only frustrated me further lol. But what came to mind just now was that there are many different people out there. You don’t have to grab everybody from the start in order for them to privilege you with their time. Some people are just looking for somebody to be real and decent -trust me! I think those are the people we should look for. But of course everybody’s different and everybody’s looking for something different. Some people like a challenge. That’s not something I’m up for. You know the other thing is that I thought about howhat I’m looking for in a person is decency and being real, and some substance. I’m not looking for somebody to grab me I’m looking for somebody that I feel It’s just basically a good person. A person who has the ability to care and who appreciates the fact that I care. Of course there has to be an attraction there but… I guess everybody as their own string with regard to that. Substance would be a real bonus. That is to say having some deep conversations. Loving people who are simplistic are equally awesome however.
Do white men approach white women with the idea of needing to entertain them right off the bat? It seems to me living in the area I live in that that is the case with the Hispanic population. Being a very passionate race they are looking to be swept it seems.

In every given situation from moment to moment the key to success is doing what needs to be done not what you think needs to be done. π€·ββοΈ Where did that 1 come from? You’ve heard the old saying, “He was the kind of man who did things the way you wanted them done; not the way he wanted them done”. Well if you do things the way the situation wants them done rather than the way you want them done, you should have success every time. Of course there are scenarios that counter one another. Forces in any given situation that often conflict. In this case, you have to figure out which force you want to obey so that the outcome lost in the malaise will eke out ahead in the end. Are there multiple forces in conflict; or simply a part of the scenario that you can serve that will produce the same outcome? Or does every force produce its own separate outcome? And what about combinations? Do they often align in such a way that you can so to speak kill-two- π¦ -with-one-stone?Encourage multiple forces with one act? Can you encourage multiple forces with one act and still have have a different outcome regarding each force? Or still have the same outcome regarding each force? What happens when multiple forces can reach the same conclusion individually, and yet they are all encouraged together? How does that work?

You would be surprised how many people say one thing but really inside they are experiencing something completely different.

Man likes to minimize his risks not maximize them. Living by certain principles often means maximizing risk in certain instances. For example you meet 2 women right around the same time and you like them both and you are unsure about what the future holds with either one but you only want 1. But at the same time you feel guilty about courting both of them. Not sleeping with him but simply getting to know both of them better at the same time. You could pick one early on but what if it’s the wrong one? What if it doesn’t go anywhere? By choosing one over the other sooner rather than later you increase your risk of winding up with nothing -possibly.

A word of advice, GOD doesn’t move very fast when we demand in anger, or think HE owes us [Bill W. mentions this as well -in the child’s greedy little Christmas-list]! I either demand a things from people or I put myself in harm’s way for decades before and in sobriety. It was a combination of ego and anger – 2 very formidable opponents.

Money I suppose is a necessity of life. They even allude to it in The Bible. But I wonder just how much to set up in this country and in the world of late has got a negative connotation. Or maybe it’s the lack of something else? When people lose their wallet or lose a money order or lose their jobs they become so terribly frightei did that they often go into fits of rage or take measures that are extremely unscrupulous. So how can dependence on money then be a positive thing? The way the system is set up and here to allow such things needs correcting.

It’s just an estimate calm about 10% of the population has a gift in any given area. Some people in relationships. Some people in music. And we look at these people in these areas that either personally or generally speaking are the areas where humanity seems to long most for success And then we envy them. There’s gotta be another secret to life than just “the gift”. Something deeper. My original point was that the biggest problem with relationships given this above statement [10%-rule] is that most of us don’t know what we’re doing [we’re limited in our natural abilities which means WE HAVE TO WORK!]. We probably don’t even realize it so therefore -we really don’t try to do anything about it. The fact is -most of us are either too lazy or too distracted elsewhere, or in denial. Hard fax?

*FACEBOOK Many bad people see the world itself as bad. Once again, I had to look up a word to be sure. Therefore, they have no “compunction” whatsoever about returning the favor to the world itself. But every now and again they will run into a kind caring soul and think twice before they act. So just imagine the transformation that could wholly take place in such an individual -if we were all examples of kindness and caring [which we should be anyways π€·ββοΈ]! At the very least, the individual would have to repeatedly think twice to the point where he would perhaps no longer wish to wreak havoc on the world π€·ββοΈ And BTW, for our own part in this ~WE REAP WHAT WE SOW~ WE ACT COLD AND INDIFFERENT [AND THAT’S NOT THE HALF OF IT WITH MANY OF US] WE GET IT BACK 10-FOLD? Oftentimes we harm/snub our fellow human beings in subtle ways. And oftentimes when we return the favor it either goes completely over their head or doesn’t seem to make an impact whatsoever. What bothers us, may not bother other people. Sooooo, what often happens in the world is that people retaliate under these circumstances in not-so-subtle ways. When a sensitive person is harmed or offended by an insensitive person, it often requires the sensitive person who has been harmed or offended to retaliate in a more aggressive fashion in order to produce a similar degree of harm. Human beings, not being the most attuned… Will often overshoot the mark without even thinking twice about having done so becaaaaause, quite often, our retaliation stems from multiple offenses over time which continue to mount into an emotional mountain of pain and anger that many of us simply carry because our normal processing which should alleviate the effects over time regarding each of these experiences simply isn’t working, or working fast enough or effectively enough -which is why so many people either lash out, seek counsel/therapy, turn to drugs and other addictions, or commit suicide eventually! π

*FACEBOOK I said the other day that for someone like GOD who is in control of everything, HE sure lets a lot of things go, let’s a lot of things slide, let’s a lot of things happen. There are at least 4 reasons why HE does this. The 1st is that HE loves us beyond comprehension. The 2nd is that HE gave us free will because of that love. The 3rd is that HE wants us to learn and grow in HIS likeness. And the 4th is that HE wants us to gain merit through victory over our struggles. π€·ββοΈ
*FACEBOOK People don’t ask for GOD’S will to be done, they ask for HIM to Grant us our will. And when this doesn’t happen we either become angry at HIM or refuse to believe HE exists any more.

An America that could be “all it can be”, rather than an America that only needs to be so strong. Our strength and our integrity as a nation should not be dependent upon the state or condition of the world around us. If we found ourselves living in a very weak world, does that mean that we only need to be so strong and make so much effort and exert so much of our resources to be just a little bit stronger and a little bit better than the rest? NONSENSE! All-too-often man does just enough – And forgets his children, and his fellow man are watching! π
*FACEBOOK We’re [some people are] more concerned about what other people think than we are about what GOD thinks. We know we can’t hide it from GOD -but we do “it” anyways.

PEOPLE… π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ Again, sometimes I get annoyed at the way GOD has set things up in this universe. It seems as if it was designed for us to be able to screw up too easily. π
*FACEBOOK You think all we need in this country is a strong army, alot of things, and a lot of mistrust? You think we can survive on those things! Along with a sound effort to separate ourselves from those we feel are not worthy of us [Separation by classes]?
Thieves are a fact of life and some people are terrified of the idea of being taken advantage of by then. BUT GOD says there are ways around this. Don’t put your treasures where thieves and moths can get to them.
*FACEBOOK Whatever you’re worried about -stop worrying about it, just do what you can and leave the rest to GOD -And trust me, GOD will do HIS part ! And trust me, it’s an unbeatable combination once we have done our part [it’s a done deal]! And the end outcome is not the one on Earth -although you can put all your eggs in that basket if you so choose. GOD operates from the vantage point of eternity and a Heaven far and away from this place. So even when things don’t turn out the way we wanted them to, ultimately we can still win [the war] if we don’t allow ourselves to be pushed off the balance-beam-of-Grace by these outcomes. π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
Seriously how many people go to a pawn shop to pawn something because they like the atmosphere? It’s desperation usually. And there are things that a pawn shop can do for you that nobody else can. It’s just a cold hard transaction with stuff of value of front and money over the counter and return. And one never wants to offend GOD -if it can be avoided.
It’s no crime to be poor -it’s the poor people with no values we have to worry about. π But even then, we should not despair over these matters too much. The offender is usually worse off than we are [compassion], and the one who offends us is the one who offends GOD!

*****10,000 hours to become a master instrumentalist. A master diamind-cutter, an alcoholic. And just as what, only 10Ωͺ even if they reach the 10,000 hour mark, they will not reach mastery-level!

Becoming Alcoholic, becoming an addict is the pinnacle of that endeavor respectively -but it’s an upside-down pinnacle!

*FACEBOOK When somebody says something that offends you and they didn’t mean to, that’s a huge difference from someone who is. But with a lot of people, having pointed that out -they don’t seem to get over it. There’s a big difference between intentional and unintentional -but there doesn’t seem to be a big difference with some people in terms of their [initial] feelings once they have been made aware of their own misinterpretation -get it? I’ve seen this!
*FACEBOOK Worrying weakens us! Playing things over and over and over again [in our minds, in our π…] distorts us!

*FACEBOOK We pay so much money for an education so we can earn a living. We often do it for the sake of our partner and children. But how much money do most of us invest in learning how to raise a child and give them everything they need? And then there’s the pride of having the freedom to raise our children as we please. Pride in the fact that no one can tell us how to raise our children, when in fact -in many instances, that is precisely what is needed in the home. The point is this, how important is making money [and all it can provide] versus raising our children properly?
*FACEBOOK A lot of people go to work so they can buy a 1/2 a million dollar house for a family they seldom see [hardly know]. Don’t you think it’s better to live in a $150,000 home and be there to participate and watch your children grow up? π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
Some people deal with relationship problems and family problems by living at work.
*FACEBOOK If you really want to screw over your enemy, get him from the day he is born and raise him wrong. I was speaking with some people earlier in the day about how people who become Alcoholics don’t do so intentionally. And yet their actions in the form of repeated drinking over many years is precisely how most people get there. In addition, most parents do not raise their children to have them go through life unprepared and with continual struggles with normal everyday experiences. They do not raise their children with the intention of them growing up sitting on a couch in some therapist’s office trying to figure out where it all went wrong, while their peers are out enjoying the full fruits of life in this wonderful country of ours. Do you see where I’m going with this? One of the most important things you will ever do or decide on in this life is -whether or not to raise your children properly.

Many adults either have children, or end up with children who wind up being the parent [or companion] to them -rather than the other way around. π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ Women tend to be more open with their friends than men do their friends. Women often are granted their children in the separation or divorce were as men or not. And we wonder why men act the way they do -running around! Some men make better parents than women. Some men love their children more than some women. And yet almost unilaterally -we grant custody of women to their children.
Abortion? When abortion became legal the religious people rebelled. Now that abortion is illegal the abortionists are rebelling. The people who are pro abortion felt that the people who were not should comply with the law in many instances. Just as I’m sure now the anti-abortionists feel that the prohibitionists should comply with a law. Women going to shady places to get abortions is no reason for making abortion legal. And this thing about a lot of women using abortion as a contraception… BS! And this idea that a man and a woman get together to create a child and thit is solely the decision of the woman to make that decision when it was 2 people voluntarily creating this lifeβ¦ that’s a fallacy! The idea that life doesn’t begin until a certain point. They had to come up with some kind of an excuse before they could kill it. Before they could convince some of the hard liners to soft enough a little bit and either become neutral or even supportive of their cause. Sounds like a bunch of lawyer. I was like the OJ Simpson case. Oh yeah life doesn’t begin until… So we’re not actually killing a child. Can you imagine if they had just come right out and said yeah we’re killing a child but so what we don’t want it and that’s what matters most. Well that would gain little support from any side. It always comes down to support.
In a person talking against the system gains a lot of attention and support here she becomes a threat and that’s when the government steps in. Additionally, do you really believe that the American public are running this country or are in charge of it? As is stipulated in the Constitution of the United States of America. Try rising up against the government as an American people and see if it won’t try and do anything necessary to survive like any organism.
What happens when everyone breaks a law?
A lot of people couldn’t comprehend why people who owe child support were not allowed to have a license when they needed a license to pay the child support. These people [10% ?] were being punished perhaps rather unjustly in order to be used as an example to the remaining 90% who also might be tempted to revolt. Without incentive many people are not going to voluntarily give up their money -Not even for their children!
One person screws up and we all pay. One person screws up and then make a new. We don’t need more laws in this country we need more law abiding citizens with common sense and deeper values. The more we screw up the more license we give the government to control us. And the more the people around us go along with it for their own safety.
200 years ago people were willing to die for freedom. Today people are willing to give up their freedom in order to be safe. That is a big mistake! 200 years ago the government was a 100% accountable to the. Is that percentage has dropped significantly. Think about how the government and corporate America have benefited from 911. It really makes you wonder.
Man always gets over punished by man -but never so with God. Because with man not only is man being punished for his crime hes being punished to set an example and to discourage others from following suit.
A lot of things went unchecked in this country for a long. Unpaid child support. DWI… It wasn’t until the government was able to figure out they could make money off of these things that they started to act? Seldom lead this man put his efforts into an endeavor that only drains or puts a burden on the system rather than a return. Efforts that are of a good cause [strictly] seldom make the grade. Money Money Money!
Man is an opportunistic creature!
MAN-THE-HUNTER -When we stopped hunting deer and rabbits -we started hunting each other!
*FACEBOOK People like to pick on JESUS! Degrade HIS status for example. The idea of JESUS getting married and having children doesn’t seem to fit with some people’s idea of purity. A lot of so-called “HIGHER-UPS” in the church in particular. If the Blessed Virgin was the spouse of GOD HIMSELF representing all purity. Why couldn’t JESUS have a spouse as well, originally representing all that is impure? And my second point is this? When we use human standards of impurity with regard to our selvesβ¦ sure, JESUS looks less than pure. Third pointz how arrogant are we to try and judge JESUS by our own human standards? Who are we to judge JESUS when we ourselves are so flawed -and HE has demonstrated HIMSELF to be so perfect? The old saying ~WE HUMANS DO -BECAUSE WE CAN~ We are also often prone to placing opinion above respect and regard for… What do most of us really know about respect at the highest level -let alone reverence! We revere the rich and the powerful and celebrity in this country. Really??? That’s our foundation [OUR TEMPLATE] for “THE HIGHEST REGARD FOR…” π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
If I were satan, I would be doing exactly what he is doing. I would do my level best to ensure people are skeptical of my existence. While also doing my level best to ensure people are skeptical GOD doesn’t exist [either].
Darwin -man is so easily duped [the easiest thing for a human being to believe is a lie that he or she wants to believe. And the hardest truth to believe is the one you don’t want to believe]. That’s why conmen and men who try to exploit women are often so successful. Because they tell them what they want to hear based on self-interest on both sides is why it works. In the case of the man exploding the woman for sex. Don’t both sides want something selfishly and greedily? If a woman is not allured by a man’s waving of bait under their nose… The woman would not be vulnerable. When a man temps a woman by telling her that he is going to do all these wonderful things for her… π€·ββοΈ A woman should not be so concerned about what a man is going to do for her as she should be with regard to his character. This is the greatest way to ensure protection from being taken in. And the same goes for the con artist. And also the politician. America will never be great because of politician solves other problems – Let’s be clear about that!. The only way this country is ever going to be great again is by the average americansidism standing up-and-doing what’s necessary. But we’re so run down and. That’s also ignorant of what’s really going on in this country… If the owner of a store is never around, the store starts looking more and more like the employees that work there -rather than the owner themselves. π€·ββοΈ
We refuse to believe, many of us -that The Bible is GOD’S word incarnate. But we believe our government and we believe our scientists… Based on what? Have any of us… How many of us have gone to school so that we could literally dissect the information we have been fed? How many of us are given accessβ¦ so we can literally come through the evidence for ourselves with a knowledgeable approach to what we are looking at before our very eyes? How the h*** do we know that dinosaur is made of real bone at the museum? And this business of evolving from a primateβ¦ Based on what evidence? How can we ourselves as laymen confirm that evidence? Every theory sounds wonderful until somebody who knows what they’re doing challenges! Just like everyone has a plan until they get hit. People are going to challenge these writings. Let them do so! While satan has a problem with scrutiny –GOD does not!
Money is afraid of risk, love on the other hand is at its best when facing risk! Go apply for a loan at the bank with lousy credit… Now go to a friend or family member who truly loves you… And ask to borrow money from them!
As the stock in money goes up the stock in love has to go down. As the stock in love goes up the stock and money has to go down. Money is highly limited and what it can do, love is not -except for in our own π [hearts]! When there is little or no love in the world, money and materialism are everything! Do you understand? People who are looking to get rich and exploit humanity really want as little love in the world is possible. You take the Walton’s for example, the seventies TV show, people were sitting around in their living rooms talking at the end of the day about how each other’s day went. How much money was corporate America making off of people like this at that time? Assuming even if they had a lot of money, if they were sitting around talking with each other and listening to the radio how much money was corporate America making off of them? None!
Now about the addictive model! Nothing like a customer who needs you! Historically the greatest scheme for ensuring success in a business is the model of the drug dealer. But if you can transfer that over to the masses somehow… Restless irritable and discontent. Is shutting out God. Low self-esteem and self-worth. Isolation.
By separating us as a nation the government and corporate America each accomplished something vital to their empowerment and very existence: Divide and conquer! These are very old concepts! When you divide something you weaken it. π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ These are concepts I wrote about 28 years ago. Some of them 15 years ago. They are some of the very best! And for some reason -at this time, God is chosen to revive them! To awaken them in me! Now to continue! AWARENESS! What did Jesus come for if not to bring awareness! Truth with love! In the early part of last century when America was strong and United. The government and corporate America were like puppets. There’s one thing power and arrogance cannot stand, it’s being a puppet. The Kent State debacle – I believe that people in this country have been working very hard for a long time to make sure that that never happens! We’ve been hearing for years “You can’t fight city hall!” This country was founded on the concept of fighting city hall calm and anything or anyone foreign or domestic who challenges us FOR GOD-SAKES! π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ Nowadays nobody wants to fight city hall because they figure it’s a lost cause. And you know what… you would be absolutely right! Few people can assail in single handed combat and emerge Victorious! When you go into a storm complain nobody gives a d*** Nowadays. But a 100 years ago, when there was something wrong, the whole d***** country protested. You should have seen the reaction from corporate America. Now they just stare at us and yawn! It’s always a matter of power. A 100 years ago America had the power. Now that Americans have been convinced they need all this junk -corporate America is selling themβ¦ Corporate America has the power -and rightly so [we are now the puppets on a string*]! Arrogant power hungry people hate being subservient! People who hunger for power want only one thing, more power! It never stops! Which leads me to ask the question where will it end? If man refuses to halt his behavior… That behavior is destructive… Then it can only end one way-destruction!
I always thought the idea of JESUS having children running around on the planet was a wonderful thought -not a demeaning one! π€·ββοΈ
*And this is all largely taking place with things we don’t even need. I understand now corporate America is starting to buy up land regarding foods. If they have power over us with regard to things we do not need imagine what kind of power they will have with regard to the things we do need! Tell me something, when a company put something on sale you think they’re doing it because they like us? Business as usual can be the most cut throat thing on Earth. Just as I believed many years ago that women were the soft spot in society, would I have been told and what I have witnessed personally is that many women can be as cold blooded as they come. I believe my aunt used the term ruthless one evening with regard to this subject.
If one person can make a difference! Then imagine what we can all do together! The powers that be -have always has been afraid of the masses uniting. Our money is our greatest weapon in the society such as this founded on commercialism. America could make government and corporate America tumble within a week simply by changing our direction and our priorities. Start it in that direction anyways.
When I was on a path of destruction with my addiction that final year in 1989 I was scared shitless. Imagine something destructive. Imagine being powerless over than your own life. And imagine it having the facet of picking up speed and progressing as time goes on? That’s a pretty scary scenario wouldn’t you say?
Depending on what a particular society values, determines the gifts each of us have been granted by God as defining success [capable of attaining success -of course some people are highly adept -most of us ARE NOT]. People who can sing great are highly valued in this country. People who know how to make money or highly valued in this country. People who know how to act are highly valued in this country. But I will say that some of the greatest voices ever created by GOD will never see a stage or record a record. It is more likely never see a stage rather than record a record. People in power generally make the rules -that is understood. So they’re going to place the things of value in the structure that mirror their own abilities and skills.
People having to go to school to learn how to act human? What is it that grabs us in movies? What quality does an actor have to have in order to grab our attention? What do we all lack in society that so many people shun us or simply behave as if we don’t exist at all? We pay to see people in movies who represent what we aspire to be!! Or what we loathe! The two extremes [emotionally charged]! We haven’t the slightest interest in sitting around watching those who fit somewhere in between. That is to say, the typical human being by our own estimate!
How many people would pay you or me to see us act? Pretty sad when you think about it!
Negative attention is better than no attention at all! At least when a man sees an attractive woman, he has determined she has some value. However base that value may appear. And however many women may see it as lewd. Believe it or not, many women actually benefit from that attention emotionally and in their self-esteem. Now you take the woman who walks past the man and asks if he has nothing whatsoever to offer. This has the complete opposite effect on his psyche and his emotions. It develops within him a complex, an insecurity, a feeling of worthlessness. Which in turn translates to neurosis possibly as well as anxiety and even anger or rage. So who creates these scenarios? So fulfilling prophecies! Why wouldn’t women be afraid of men walking around feeling like this? But the real question is why would women treat men as such? Are we not civilized? Are we not caring and compassionate?The answer in many cases is a resounding -NO WE ARE NOT! We are simply out for ourselves like everybody else we perceive as such! Or just as we were taught growing up! Or both!
When the car is in the driveway we have no real concern about going out and taking a ride or going to the grocery store or going to pay a bill. When the car is in the shop… We tend to get very anxious knowing that that option is not available. Even though we may in fact not have any need for it at that time. Women take great comfort in the notion that there is always a man out there available to them if they so choose. Man on the other hand tend to operate more from the notion that the car is in the shop and that they must constantly be finding ways and means to get their needs met under those circumstances. Understand? Women carry around a certain confidence with regard to the opposite sex -that many men with regard to the opposite sex lack. Do you think the based on my experience on this planet that I am of the mind that I can just walk out my front door just about any time and get a female? H*** no! That reality in turn creates a lot of anxiety, even fear! Probably the same fear a woman has of walking out her front door at night and being accosted. In both cases we take extra precautions don’t we? Extra precautions to ensure our own safety or survival or future? With women it’s more here and now and perhaps with men it’s making sure that our seed lives to see the future [atleast that seems to be the popular theory]. I’m not sure I would agree that that’s all it’s about but…
Now men and rape and power. How many of us as children felt powerless over our mother’s? How many mothers yielded their power over their young children thoughtlessly and carelessly and even brutally at one point or another? I think it’s humiliating for a man, even at an early age to be controlled or abused by a woman. I was recently told by a counselor that the most under reported crimes in the country are men being abused or raped by women. We are ashamed! Ashamed of being considered weak!
If you look at the power and the depths and the scope of these writings-it ruins a person’s approach to all of this so-called humanity. You know how hard it is to write about all this and then come out into the world and try and participate in it?
When a society is divided 2 things happen. We take away that society’s power. Well also instilling in them a certain need to fill that void of lack of community and fellowship. In the addictive model, there are certain facets inherent to addiction. Alcoholics and addicts are notoriously separated from people increasingly as their addictions increase. They shut out God. It’s been a while since I’ve recalled this so bear with me. Oh yes, they are restless irritable and discontented. See all these things occurring in modern day America on a massive scale. And now we see people spending money frivolously left and right -At no other time in the history of this country has corporate America been more happy! Our attitude is we need them and their attitude is they don’t need us -even though they need us every bit as much now as they ever have. They have been working at this for a very long time! When you weaken and separate a society they become less of a threat to government and they become needy because like the monkey in the cageβ¦ it has a very powerful need to socialize and gravitate. That is why a wire monkey with cloth cloth is so vital to this monkey survival. In America today in the absence of any real community or even the time to invest in itβ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦.. We are searching for relationship with objects. If you take away a vital need from an organism, it will gravitate to that which is available in its place. Take away human community and put a bunch of materialistic garbage in its place… And human beings will attempt to bond with it or socialize with it. Behavioral specialists have known this for a long time. We learned a great deal about human beings in the early part of the 20th century and while in many instances it was initially intended to help humanity, now it is being used to exploit humanity!
Super Bowl tickets! Nowadays this group has to choose to buy this or that but do without this or that. There are so many groups now that corporate American can afford to survive under this framework. It could not do this a 100 years ago! The number of people who are rich in this country has expanded over the last 100 years significantly. While the size of a basketball stadium or football stadium has pretty much stayed the same. That is why tickets are going up because the rich people are now fillling the stadiums. Did anybody see this coming? In many instances it appears corporate America could care less about the average family attending there highly celebrity functions. That of “the playoffs”. $3000 as of 5 years ago to attend a Super Bowl in the nosebleed section? And things are so great on the corporate scene nowadays that they’re able to buy 20, 30, 50, 100 of these tickets for clients who could care less about the game itself. POMP!
Bosses will always tell you that they’re under the wire as far as profits. Then one day they invite you out for a party on their yacht.
You know how you can tell when you’re paying too much for a product or a service with a company? When you hear on the news that they just bought a 10 billion dollar company. Swallowed up a 10 billion dollar company I should say.
I used to go to a store. They gave great veterans discounts and had lay aways on their guns. There’s another company bought them out and there were no more veterans discounts. Companies grow in size due to choice to do business with them. Give us all these perks in the beginning. But being resentful at us for having to cower to us to begin with in order to grow and expand-once they do grow and expand they give us the finger! What kind of gratitude is that! Bank of America at one point tried to charge its members to use the ATM It rebelled and Bank of America back down. You see? Corporate America is always watching to see what their competitors can get away with so they can follow. Ericans should be doing the same exact thing! It’s corporate America keeps lawyers on hand at all times geared up for a fight. They also know that the average American is not prepared to do so as well. So corporate America gets away with a bunch of s***. Corporate America rarely challenges the rich because it’s too expensive. So they challenged the poor who tend to simply cave in. It’s the same old story about the powerful challenging the weak. It’s the bully syndrome.
Why does man keep failing to progress and certain areas? One reason is that when it’s not broke he tries to fix it. The other reason is man is constantly trying to get the upper hand with his fellow human being. He selfishly withholds critical and important pieces of information to himself. He also continually tries to mislead. Instead of information and quality building in ensuing generations… We go back-and-forth. We rise and then we fall we rise and then we fall with the idea of a select few looking to rise themselves above all and every.
A man made world where man can become God. In God’s world man is far too limited. But in a man made world man is God.
Corporate America is slowly but surely taking the power out of the average employee. There’s no longer any room for fairness or empathy or compassion on the part of the employee dealing with the customer.
The system always places itself 1st and the individual 2nd. That is why there are more people than there are jobs available than people. And how can we expect for people to not turn to crime in a society that is unable to support all of its people? Can we blame people? I don’t have a problem so much with a man breaking into my house to feed his children. But I do have a problem with a man breaking into my house to feed his drug addiction or to take a woman out on the date.
At the end of the day man is a creature that is easily manipulated because he operates off of shallow, flimsy structures designed to serve himself -rather than GOD and others.
If you make survival or anything else on this planet the top priority, satan has already won! JESUS gave us an example of how to subvert power on an earthly plane both with regard to satan and our fellow.
*****FACEBOOK First they try to bribe us, and if that doesn’t work; They try to threaten us; And if that doesn’t work they threaten to harm those we love. By the time it gets to the latter, people are more than willing to comply. In order to put an end to crime and satan’s reign we have to stop caving in! In order to put a stop to politicians doing what they do… We have to stop falling for their lies and stop expecting them to bail us out. You will always attract to a mouse trap a mouse when you use CHEESE. You will always attract shallow politicians when what you offer them is a lot of money, perks,, and celebrity -rather than hard work, low pay, and little appreciation. Only principled people will accept or undertake this sort of responsibility. Nowadays politics is big business. Is it any wonder we have increasingly shallow people applying for the job!!!! THINK ABOUT IT! π€·ββοΈ
*FACEBOOK In a hold-up, or hostage situation… for example, people [almost] always fall for the ploy, “We’ll let you live if you cooperate with us”.
*FACEBOOK Depending on what part of history you take a slice from, the world either looks like it’s getting better or worse.
*FACEBOOK People who are unfamiliar with the history of the world think we are living in the end times. Fact of the matter is -there have been places in history where the world was far worse. So who really knows! π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ Just my opinion -what do I know! π€·ββοΈ
*FACEBOOK If people stood up to crime and satan, “they [crime & satan] would lose their steam”. Anything meeting with resistance generally does in the known universe [except… always reach for more, or less depending…]. But when a person stands up to crime or evil in the world, they naturally draw [negative] attention to themselves. They in fact often pay a heavy price. What’s that old saying, “In order for evil to triumph -all that is necessary is for good men to stand by and do nothing.” As long as people are more inclined towards saving their own skins rather than standing up for what is right, evil will continue to thrive! Have you ever seen someone out in public do a courageous thing? It’s quite startling isn’t it?
**FACEBOOK Little-by-little the system is attacking the individual. Quite often, the attitude in this country is that as long as it isn’t me -but only my neighbor. Don’t worry, sooner or later they’ll get around to you, and then to those you love… That is why we have to start standing up for one another. As long as we continue standing up for ourselves they will continue picking us off one at a time… until it’s too late. They use the natural inclinations of humanity against us. Which is why it is so important for us to go against our own natural inclinations -which tend to doom us.
It used to be that when someone was dishonest, it was frowned upon and considered very surprising. Nowadays it seems that when somebody does an honest act… It is viewed in similar fashion.
God says there are 2 things man has a problem with. What a man has [envy]; What a man is [jealousy].
Often times, the things that sound very nice and poetic -are being passed on as truth. And the things that don’t sound so nice or don’t sound so poetic -are simply sloughed off.
Imagine how much money we spend in this country, waste in this country on esthetics. Man, especially the arrogant and the hottie like things to look pretty as well as functional.
If you look at mankind and it’s cities for example, Actually appear to be pretty cold.
I think the gold and precious metal resources along with other resources which have been carefully placed and distributed throughout the world give balance to and effect this planet and its rotation and movement around the Sun and otherwise; and when we started removing it we began to throw things off.
The more the population is growing and the more man is drawn to materialism, the greater the stress we will put on the resource base in this world.
Why did GOD distribute the precious metals and other resources the way he did?
We think we own this planet. We put up borders and fences and other obstacles to either keep people in or keep people out. Our local University has got fencing all over the place where we once were able to roam these beautiful fields and walk our dogs and jog. People tell us where we can and cannot go on this planet that God gave all of us. Corporations are buying up various properties around the world and skyrocketing the values. There was a time when there were 2 few of them to cover the entire globe. Now that the rich have expanded and the notion that money is where it’s at and not principlesβ¦ people are going on a rampage and just bind up for example all of the coastal properties and all of the places of beauty and trying to profit from it. Keeping out the poor and bringing in the rich.
At the tower of Babylon supposedly God-made separate languages so that man would not become too powerful. Too arrogant! For example in this country they are trying to do away with any kind of pure blood races. Everybody’s just becoming an amalgamum of humanity. When you break down certain lines and establish others… It paves the way for one rule. When we no longer have separation in the world that’s when satan can come in and rule over all. Imagine that we can’t agree on one God in the spiritual sense but will agree to one God in the physical sense: food, shelter, clothing -and the belief that one person can save us all -since by that time we will have long forgotten about God -most of us.
They used to have laws in this country against monopolizing. And of course mankind has seen fit to break down those barriers so that corporate America could continue to raise the ceiling on just how powerful it could become. With regard to capitalism once you reach a ceiling what is their left to reach for? Some people’s whole lives are about reaching for more. It used to be that the notion of being a millionaire was what people thought or dreamed of here-and-there. Then it became a little more people dreaming about becoming a billionaire. Now it’s an epidemic of people dreaming about being multibillionaires by the time there 23 like someone we know. Man’s animal self always needs more to achieve the same effect. In spirituality not so. And even if it does happen to be so -at least it’s beneficial and not destructive.
People continue to buy into this lottery thing. The only one that wins every week is the government.

Paying someone $10 $15 in order to take our payment. When is it gonna be a $100?
We don’t need more laws in this country -we need better people.
People in this country are beginning to place more and more emphasis on money rather than principles. Try this sometime, in the middle of the week park out in front of any local church and see how much traffic comes and goes in-and-out of the building. Then, park in front of your local bank, and see how much traffic comes and goes in-and-out of the building. It’s a simple exercise with profound results.

I’ve been saying for about 10 years now that prices are going up and the boxes are shrinking in the grocery stores. I think now we’re down to 52 oz half galfun jugs of Orange juice! Half gallon ice cream containers are shrinking down to one-and-a-half, or even one-and-a-quarter. GEEEEEEZ… .The new way of doing things in this country and in the world… They want us old people to die off so the new generation has no clue about what it really meant to have a good life and what it meant to be fair and just and what it meant to be free and what it meant to believe in God. So the things like charging people to take a payment can be common place and not an absurdity. Do you remember what real half-and-half tasted like 50 years ago? You buy half-and-half at the store to day and it tastes like milk.
Now I know why people in 12-step programs with a lot of time blow their brains out rather than get drunk or high. The greater disparity in spirituality between these individuals and the world, the more frustrated and disillusioned they become.
They say now the key to winning a war is to get people to willfully surrender. Willfully surrender their rights and their freedoms. That seems to be the case now as people begin to lose both hope and courage. Once again, The people who founded this country stated “Give me liberty or give me death”. But nowadays people are saying “OK, if I have to give up some of my freedom to be safe, so be it!”
*FACEBOOK When George Orwell wrote his book, he may have been trying to warn the world -but he also provided a template to those who would attempt to exploit and rule it. Anytime you bring something profound into the world, even with a good purpose, that power can be used to the detriment of mankind. Again, why do GOD make it as such/allow it? FREEWILL?

The more information a person is able to take in, like a fishing netβ¦ The more negative information about human beings and your environment your apt to capture. Along with positive information as well naturally. Life is filled with balances correct? But when it comes to negativity or threats, Human beings do not tend to weigh them in terms of negative, or “bad to good” [ratios]. They simply weigh the negative or the bad. So a human being who has a greater awareness will filter in far more negative than someone else who is not. Get it? There’s not a balance when it comes to our survival between good and bad. A threat is a threat in most people’s minds -and that tends to be taken solely on its own. What’s my point? With that being saidβ¦ far more intelligent [aware] people, granted that they too are not taking into account the balance between good and bad, will see the world as a far more threatening place than others. π

In the Jewish culture kids are considered responsible and grown for their own conduct at the age of 12. I think there’s something to be learned from that, something to be learned from these very wise people. In the United States it’s not that at all. But we’ve learned some pretty hard lessons over the years about how that probably should have been something instilled in our children rather than them thinking they can get away with things much longer than they should have.
the Jewish for example of a much older Nation than we are, we could learn a lot from them.
many Jewish people are poor even though there is a percentage of them that seem to excel to the very top of the ladder just as is the case with the blacks.

There’s nothing worse than pomp and arrogance in the face of God having granted us his grace to perform or function in a level that Allows us to participate in life in the finest fashion.
It’s not just how one presents themselves but the aura supporting it then determines if people will be turned off or turned on to your presence.
Well I’m working through my issues and trying to get better, you have to realize that there are other people out there that may not respond positively to the new U even if that new U is doing things in a healthy way. Because they’re not healthy. Because they’re still not healthy.
Do you understand the difference between applying self willed power versus GOD’S Grace and the presence of a situation?
God invokes every one’s help, but not every one is willing or open. When I tell people God has granted me the privilege of being a part of his work people look at me cross eyed and sometimes with I don’t know what. But I know and understand that God does not play favorites. If people are not a part of his plan it’s because it is either not the time yet or because they refuse to be open, to accept.

It’s not a bad thing, it’s not that God is looking down on us because anytime we do anything with the right intention, Even in our ignorance, God Smiles down on us. But sometimes, man does act with goodness where GOD would not -because he knows it is not the ultimate act at the precise time!

Many people in 12 step programs don’t like the reference to their higher power as GOD! Does it matter what you call a shovel? It still can perform the same task cannot it? Where we get into trouble is trying to use it for something other than it was meant for I suppose. The 12 step program is an extension of our own limitations. It’s like a wrench -if you care to look at it in the most basic sense. Have you tried changing the starter on your car with your bare hands?
——–β——————————————————–
The reason people in Alcoholics Anonymous fail so often is that they either take on too much too soon, or they don’t follow all the suggestions. Until we accept something… If I don’t accept that my tire is flat on my car -I’m probably not going to bother changing it. Acceptance in a way is an acknowledgment of reality. Acceptance is not condoning something. I used to tell people in the hospital that following the suggestions of the AA program each new day, is like waking up to a flat tire on your car each new day. In order to go back out into the world and participate -you might want to fix that flat so you can get in your car and drive off to do the things you need to do. Now the question with regard to this metaphor about following the suggestions of the 12-step program is this: Once the flat tire has been repaired, and you place the tire back up on the hub; how many lug-nuts are you going to put back on the lugs [what kind of mood are you in today -Lazy? Defiant? Angry? Jealous?]? Each one representing a separate suggestion from the 12-step program. 1? 2? 3? 8? All 12? The fewer suggestions we choose to follow -the more in danger we are of crashing! π
FACEBOOK Why do some Atheists tend to be more godly than some Christians? Why does their tree seem to bare better fruit than some Christians? It’s not so much about what comes out of your mouth [though we have to be careful nonetheless -what does], it’s about what is or isn’t in your β€ π [what you let in and what you don’t let in] -that’s “Y”! π€·ββοΈ
Some men think they’re all that. When you can create something rather than simply discover something GOD has already created… When you can create a new law that subverts or overcomes GOD’S… come talk to me!
To me intelligence is about openness!

If we all got together and shared our innermost thoughts and… The nature of those thoughts… And how much trouble they cause us… We would without a doubt come to the conclusion that there is something evil in the universe affecting us, attacking us! This separation between so many of us is what allows the devil to continue to exist in the details prompted by our denial, ignorance, small sample [our own minds]; larger picture [humanities mind]!
There’s a difference between good people who make bad decisions that hurt you and bad people who make bad decisions that hurt you.
Seldom does something good come out of poor-decision making. Many of us don’t realize the profoundness of this statement. The depth by which our lives are impacted with regard to this principle. On the other hand, I met people who seem to always shoot for the very highest and best decision making. And their lives seem to be filled with the highest quality and the greatest freedom from what many of us suffer from regularly or semi-regularly.
Taking care of myself, or protecting myself, protecting my Serenity has never been my chief character asset in life or in recovery.
Recovery in a 12 step program is an act of love.

They are saying on the Fox NFL Sunday right now that we should all take a CPR class to save someone’s life. GOD told me 25 or 30 years ago that we should all be adept at some basic knowledge of various emergencies that crop up among humanity on a regular basis. But how many of us by the very fact that we know little or nothing about such things -are really concerned about ourselves or our fellow human beings? Can you refute the evidence? π€·ββοΈ

If you don’t believe there is a devil then explain to me why so many of the thoughts going through [planted in] your mind -lead you to make very bad/very poor decisions [often times when you know better -It’s not just about the thoughts; but the stirring up of emotions that create biases and distortions just prior to those thoughts, or during them, or even after them…]?

People start feeling better, or getting better, or start experiencing more and more freedom for example as they mature as young adults… Then they rush to judgment with these new opportunities. I may or may not be in a similar situation at the moment. I just ask that GOD let my life unfold where HE has intended for it too.
For the last 30 plus years when I pray to GOD I ask for HIS will not mine to be done. Only 3 or 4 times since I made that commitment have I gone against it. And there are a lot of things in my life that I wish were different. More than likely things that would not have turned out for the best. That’s my thought on it anyways. π€·ββοΈ[GOD knows our limitations/what will work/what’s best rather than good or better (but we settle (even desire) so often for that which is inferior].

I noticed in meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous many people seem very normal. Am I? For a long time I couldn’t relate to such behavior whether it was real or not. What about new people coming in who have real problems? How are they supposed to relate to these people? If you’re normal that’s one thing. If you’re not, you’re doing others and yourself a disservice.
Some people get deeply attached; but it’s either momentarily; or they get over it quickly when the relationship ends. Others not so much. And still othersβ¦
Give people what they want or act within the perameter of what it is they perceive as normal or appealing and they’re very happy with you, don’t and in most cases you’re not going to get anything/anywhere. And these are the civilized people of course. Don’t let me even start talking about the uncivilized ones.
What if it was the woman who had to perform instead of the man. And what if it was the woman who had to get it up instead of the man? If things were the other way around would women rape men? Why did GOD make it that way? Why couldn’t HE have made it to where the woman, who is [presumably] less aggressive -have the penis and the man have the vagina? That way it wouldn’t work.
If you think you as a fan are pissed because your team screwed up -how do you think they feel?

No heavy drinker ever sets out to be an Alcoholic. From one perspective it’s what you do not know what you think or say or intend. That is one of the great laws of the universe. The next law is the law of intention. We are a good person or a bad person based upon our intentions regardless of our actions, and the outcomes!
You place a rug in the hallway, can you walk past it 5 10 15 times A-day… You are innocent practicing to eventually trip over that rug. Or challenging yourself to see how many times you walk over that rug without tripping over it. The scenario sets the stage; while our intentions set up the nature of the challenge. IS THAT RIGHT?
It’s not that GOD didn’t hear my prayers. It’s more like WE DON’T hear HIS! Maybe my desires were inferior to HIS for me. And also, It’s not all about me there are other people GOD is trying to serve. Just imagine GOD doing the right thing all the time while trying to meet the various wants and needs of others. Of course this could all be trimmed down to one thing; what’s best for everyone! Where the conflict comes in is everybody thinks they know better than GOD. GOD simply overrides this chaos, and sticks to the plan of doing what’s right for everyone; this basically eliminates any chaos/conflict with regard to HIS knowing. When you factor in our twisted desires, and various degrees of ignorance, then it gets dicey.
So often it’s about us not doing our part while GOD is repeatedly doing HIS.
here are a lot of things that confuse us about God’s existence. But what are the things in life that without a doubt indicate that God does exist and indicate his true intentions or nature?
