FACEBOOK “Please help those people dear LORD who are in need -even if it means taking a little something from us who have.”

FACEBOOK “The people who fought for freedom in this country had a very different experience and therefore mindset [or other way around] from the people in this country who are enjoying that freedom!” 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

FACEBOOK “People in this day and age don’t know what to believe – The only thing we really need to believe [in] is GOD!”

FACEBOOK “What is the most incredible thing in the universe? The densist star? How many stars in the universe? Life on100 other planets? Nooo -GOD!!”

FACEBOOK “If you can convince someone they need you 🤔 -even though they don’t. And if you can convince 🤔- an elephant that they’re a mouse. I saw a movie once “The shooter”? Anyways, the villain was talking about how the government was fading away and that people needed to feel they needed it. It was dying? As for corporate America, do we need them or they need us? Or both? People cannot earn a living without corporate America? Fedex and all kinds of different… When I went over to UPS yesterday and they told me I could no longer have my packages held locally and that I would have to pay the $8.99 fee online… I thought to myself, why do Americans keep putting up with their stuff? Because of what it would take to put an end to it? A lot of us would have to suffer -and we don’t wanna suffer? It’s probably true, the situation we find ourselves in would require pain and suffering to stop it. And of course people on the other end would do their best to resist. And when the dust would finally settle, there would have to be some kind of a compromise. Anything of man that he values -dies slowly! How do we undo this mess we’re all in? I mean this mess being slaves to what or who -if we even know anymore! Do you really believe for example, that this situation where we’re all being drained like victims of vampires -cannot be undone? Of course it can! Man created it, and he can fix it. Now where GOD comes in is -giving man the will to do so. Usually when a lot of people are suffering -somebody is benefiting. You put a stop to that dynamic -and the problem is largely solved! But man doesn’t let go easily when he is on top! The plan is to help all people involved not just certain people!! Because even the ones who think they are on top -are suffering; whether they know it or not!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “If you really believe the government is of the people, for the people, by the people… Try shutting it down! Go on! It should be! But go ahead and try anyways! Even when there was a Civil War -it was the government against the people. Imagine now? Federal vs State?”

FACEBOOK “You don’t need to know how “it is operating”, you just need to understand man’s [corrupt] nature!”

FACEBOOK “So much of our culture today is ego-driven. Ego has always been a part of man’s nature -BUT WHEN IT BECOMES PART OF HIS CULTURE as well??? WATCH OUT!”

FACEBOOK “When the bank Let’s you slide on a payment without letting you slide on the interest, WHO DOES IT BENEFIT MOST?” 🤔

FACEBOOK “It’s OK if it’s a big deal to you; just don’t make it a big deal with other people!”

FACEBOOK “I saw this movie where they made them think that they were in danger so they made certain moves that actually did put them in danger when they were not to begin with*. This is a ploy of satan’s quite often. Satan is allowed to lie and manipulate apparently; he just can’t force us to act!”

*Actually, they were trying to get him to give up the bank codes to his Swiss bank account (by making him think they had already been compromised).

FACEBOOK “Some people seem to barely manage to survive monetarily or emotionally by being selfish. So where would they be without being selfish?”

FACEBOOK “GOD or the wall -your choice? If you put the wall up, you shut everything out -including GOD. If you leave the wall down, you let everything in -including GOD. Now which do you suppose…” 🤔

FACEBOOK “Man’s attitude when he needs something; is very different from when/after he gets it!”

FACEBOOK “These little itsy bitsy irritations in life are preparation to make us stronger and build our character for bigger things later on down the road.”

FACEBOOK “Since GOD knows the future and knows every man’s heart: does HE judge us for everything we will do; and for everything we would do under circumstances we will never face?”

FACEBOOK “The purer the man, the greater the sacrifice! 🤔 Other way around?”

FACEBOOK “Corporate America & the US Government keep evolving -but what is their overall goal, agenda? Is it benign? Unlikely! They keep stacking change, one after another! Do we even know anymore what it is we are conceding to? And what about the consequences of policies working in tandem? A web [of lies]? Traps??? WHY SHOULD WE TRUST?”

*Of course like anything else, there are very good people working within the framework of these organizations**.

**When something continues to evolve, with no end in sight; that is not benign in nature -there can only be one [eventual] outcome! Man!!!!! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ WHY SHOULD WE TRUST?

FACEBOOK “There’s a reason animal’s fear man!”

FACEBOOK “It takes a very twisted and warped ❤ to take it personal with people you don’t even know. With people who have never done anything to you; but only represent those who have done something to you! LC is filled with these people!”

FACEBOOK “My whole life has been WALLS & MASKS! You harm someone severely in their early development -And keep them in the very environment they were initially traumatized in continually… Most people will not be able to overcome that!” Hint: Are the people out in the world really that much different from the people inside of your world? 🤔 In most cases-NO!

FACEBOOK “As long as there are men that exist who [are willing to] choose satan over GOD [or some combination of the two -usually (consciously or otherwise)] -satan serves a useful, but unfortunate purpose. Therefore, 🤔 satan MUST exist in order for the most basic foundation of man’s freewill to remain in tact -HIS CHOICE TO BE GOOD; OR TO BE EVIL!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “Man sometimes figures things out by reversing through “the process”.

I believe it was a renowned actor that once stated that Jeff Bridges was the most comfortable actor in front of the camera he had ever met. Imagine being comfortable beyond imagination in whatever endeavor you are embarking upon? How important is being comfortable? How important is being uncomfortable?

FACEBOOK “”Peace and Serenity” have never been my top priorities -sadly!”

FACEBOOK “GOD gives because HE loves; or visa-versa?”

FACEBOOK “It used to be the prices were set largely based on cost. Naturally this is a limitation that has not only been challenged of late; but discarded in many areas, by many franchises. Man is constantly looking for ways to increase his profit. At least that’s the name of the game in this country of late. Raising prices while cutting costs. Is there a 3rd venue [oops]. Is there a third facet?”

FACEBOOK LIMITATIONS: If you’re waiting around for corporate America and the US government to “limit themselves…” They may not take as much as they can get [all at once]; But they keep moving ever closer. When man no longer operates in increments… This for example, is when one country decides to take over another! If you had a goal why do it in increments if you don’t have to! Is this radical? Look for man to start discarding ways that take too long or seem outdated or obsolete -based upon principles being weeded out of the “societal-and-organizational -fray!”

FACEBOOK INFLATION: 1000 years ago there was no inflation. People did what they did and got what they got. This basically was the case. Now living day-to-day, there were some hard times! In the west however, man’s need to get paid more and more for his works. Stockpiling, for hard times that lay ahead, have become common-place. Reliance on himself rather than faith in GOD is the order of the day! But with this arrangement where man is getting paid more and more for his works… just how far ahead is he really getting? In the West every time he raises his prices then the guy down the road raises his and the next guy raises his and the next guy raises his and the next guy raises his. The belief is that this is circular. Or a spiral. But the fact that the matter is everything has a beginning. And where inflation begins in the West is with man wanting or needing to be paid more with the time he accrues in his chosen vocation. Once you set the ball rolling then it becomes circular -or so it seems! But if you trace it back to its roots* -it’s no longer circular! So, most of us really are not getting head -except for where the backlash of time allows us to until the circle comes back around to us where the other fella has raised their prices. It’s like with raising the minimum wage. He raised the minimum wage and all the stores raised their prices. So not only do the people who got the minimum wage raise… not get anywhere -but the rest of us end up paying more also -and we didn’t get a raise. WTF 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ The fact of the matter is that in the West, man needs to feel like he is progressing and making more and getting ahead even if it’s just an illusion -that only lasts for moments here and there realistically. In the West it’s all about progress and moving up. How many problems have these 2 things caused for Western civilizations? Along with status and the uneven playing field** and the totem Pole or a hierarchy or financial gradation from top to bottom?

*Speaking of roots, what happened to all the land in this country? I’ll tell you what happened to it. Government took a big chunk of it. While many years ago certain individuals bought up a s*** load of it. Legal or illegal! If this is our country why are we having to buy land? Once again come a bunch of people bought it up early on and started parceling it out to the rest of us. Buying land in a country that belongs to all of us? And what about the world? What about this idea about human beings taking ownership of specific areas while keeping the rest of us out or setting boundaries or restrictions when the world was given to all of us by GOD?

**And they say there are no kings in this country! In this country it’s all about feeling bettor, superior… -based upon your status! You feel better at the expense of other people feeling worse or less. We’re slaves to a structure that really does not lend itself to character-building or application-of-principle or spiritualness -It’s all about feeding the body and being a slave to it! Eastern cultures have been around for millenniums and they were all too familiar with these pitfalls.

FACEBOOK SHARKS: These people hired and placed in think tanks in order to maximize the profits of the companies they work for -don’t these people have families that they should be concerned about with regard to maximizing profits? Don’t they stop and think to themselves that while they’re helping their company, they’re harming their fellow man? Don’t these people also have to shop out there in the world? Everything is relative and connected correct question maximize profits in your company doesn’t that affect other companies eventually -where you shop? So we come up with some brilliant idea to maximize profits… what do we get out of it -status? A raise? But on the flip-side of it, many people are struggling to produce the revenue being demanded by your company. Some of them likely your family members.

FACEBOOK “The rich have more to lose, but they also have more to spare [tytyty LORD forgot this one while in kitchen rearranging for air-fryer]. This is what allows the game to continue. The poor have less to lose mind you; but they also have less to spare! The rich can hold out a lot longer than the poor -except perhaps with the agony of suffering the losses to begin with. Let’s be Frank, the rich love their money! More importantly the power in the status that come with it in many cases!”

FACEBOOK “It’s better to go to the gym and do a little then to not go to the gym at all -dreading to have to do a lot -it’s a psychological game! I find that if I can encourage myself rather than discourage myself just to show up… Once I make a start, I start feeling better about doing more.”

*****Never started drinking “just before bedtime”. AA is the one place where I’m not sure a room full of people is “a good thing” or “a bad thing”?

FACEBOOK “*****THE MORE MY [RELATIONSHIP WITH MY] ADDICTION INCREASES; THE MORE MY RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHERS, MYSELF, AND ABOVE ALL ELSE, GOD -DECREASES!”

FACEBOOK “*****THE MORE MY addiction increases; the more my relationships decrease!”

FACEBOOK “It’s one thing to hate the person who hurt you*; another thing entirely, hating anyone [all the people] who represent them! A woman for example, hurt by numerous men; going thru life hating every man they encounter? WHEW!!!!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

*How often do we ever actually take out our anger on the people who actually ARE RESPONSIBLE?

FACEBOOK “Are you being honest in your relationship? Think about the consequences of not being honest -OR TRUE! Imagine you waking up after 10 years and finding out you really never knew your partner! Imagine your partner waking up after 10 years and finding out they never really knew you!” 🤔

Vegas and insurance companies always throw in that extra something so they can come out ahead. At the Roulette Roulette table it is the 2 green numbers. With insurance companies that’s the deductible.

FACEBOOK “If life is a test like any other, shouldn’t we be prepared for it? When we know we’re being tested, we generally prepare for it don’t we? The problem with life is that many people DO NOT SEE IT AS A TEST -and therefore they do not prepare for it!”

P.S. Many people hate tests -but life appears to be “one of those unavoidable ones”.

FACEBOOK “Sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference between something that’s wrong and something that’s perfect -because the usual [norm] is generally somewhere in between! Sometimes perfect feels all wrong!” 🤷‍♂️

FACEBOOK “Freedom and relationships are all about responsible action. And they are the easiest things in the world to take for granted -or even abuse.”

FACEBOOK “The parallel between a parent and a child; and you and your partner -UNCONDITIONAL!”

Use a formula to construct sentences mathematically. Rearrange words just to see what meanings are derived.

When your age and your body begins to show that age… scale and experience are supposed to replace them. Let me put it another way old age and treachery will win out over youth and skill.

What happens when somebody good who knows what they’re doing meets up with somebody bad who knows what they’re doing?

That’s a bunch of b******* you don’t force people to pay for insurance. Anything that has to do with business and profit -you do not force people to engage in!

FACEBOOK “People quite often develop animosity* towards their partner [more often then you might 🤔 💭 think].”

*Men and women in this country tend to have an antagonistic relationship between one another!

FACEBOOK “There’s always gonna be somebody decent who; eventually becomes aware of something indecent going on [with the public].”

FACEBOOK “Based on everything we’ve learned so far… the only question now is not if there’s anything more to be discovered -but what else there is to be discovered. GOD it appears, has woven into the fabric of the universe -a path of endless discoveries.”

P.S. Without new opportunities and choices; how can there be free will? Besides, GOD also knows, all-too-well… the hearts and minds of HIS children.

Lawyers use coercion and threats all the time to get their clients what they want -why can’t we use it on eBay?

FACEBOOK “Why judge people [we tend to either not care what others think, or; we retaliate, or; we end up wounding people (mistakenly; and always wrongfully)] in the majority of cases?

– It’s a waste of time;

– You’re probably not qualified;

– And you will be judged by the same measure!”

FACEBOOK “When you feel jealousy or envy towards another it’s because somewhere inside of yourself you have been neglected, or neglected yourself!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Alcoholics and addicts are not the only ones in this day and age with self will run riot issues.

FACEBOOK “Whenever life starts getting to us; oftentimes, it’s because we forget just how good we’ve really got it.”

It’s understandable given your heightened awareness, the fact that you’re not on any medication, and your history… that you would have some “ups n’ downs….” Particularly with regard to modern-day-America being what it is today.

When we want GOD badly enough… HE knows that when we want other things badly enough we are willing to go to a certain length to get them. So don’t you think it’s only fair that we show at least that much effort when reaching out to him?

With my level of awareness, history, no medication, the high stress world of modern-day-America… Of course I should have some Ups and Downs. Personally, I think I’m doing d*** good. I think GOD has done a d*** good job!

FACEBOOK “Other people being selfish, causes, justifies our being selfish. Lack of faith. Weakness. Lack of steadfastness in your values [locus-of-center].”

FACEBOOK “When we retaliate, we justify people’s wrong behavior (in their minds -“and oh how I hate this about we human-beings”)!”

FACEBOOK “You and I cannot see everything -but GOD can. I and others cannot see you -but GOD can.” “Therefore, we don’t care what GOD thinks; but we care so much about what other people think; that we go to the (great) trouble of hiding it!”

FACEBOOK “The key to being honest is never do anything you have to hide, or lie about! For the longest time in my youth I could not adhere to this principle. [I “wanted” things]” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “A lot of people think highly of themselves that shouldn’t. A lot of people think little of themselves that shouldn’t -but it’s a good character trait nonetheless.” 👍🏻

FACEBOOK “Fewer and fewer people in this country are willing/able to say no to excess.” “How many people do we expect things from -who don’t have it to give? Demand things from -who don’t have it to give? You’d be better off going to someone who has it; and is unwilling to give it -wouldn’t you?”

FACEBOOK “A lot of people don’t give a s*** about what I think; but they want me to give a s*** about what they think. And I’m not talking about “what they give a s*** about…” I’m talking about demanding respect; I’m not talking about the fact that they really want me to give a d*** about what they think. Let me put it another way, a lot of people don’t respect what I think or feel -but they demand that they be respected. And this is where a lot of it comes down to whose stronger. Oh if I’m stronger than you then I guess you better respect me. And if you’re weaker than me then I’ll respect you if I choose or I won’t respect you if I choose [this is the human-will, and twisted-human-spirit at it’s most primitive]. This is the way a lot of humans operate. A lot of people do this without even realizing they’re doing it. While, others do it consciously.”

Trust versus reliability

FACEBOOK “Some people know you better than you know yourself -they have that kind of gift.”

FACEBOOK “We go out into our little cars, out into the world… with our own little missions in mind. Oftentimes, with our bodies making demands that we seek out pleasure, or superficial fulfillment, or the need for stimulation in various forms (whatever form happens to be available in our environment -the environment our fellow man has constructed, and therefore availed to us). How many of us ever really stopped to think about the people out there in the world; the people we encounter around us -as we are out in the bout?”

FACEBOOK “That which doesn’t come naturally: requires a conscious effort!”

FACEBOOK “You don’t have to make things complicated in order to prove your love!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

“What’s the point of retaliating; bad people suffer unto themselves all the time!” GOD KNOW THIS; it is one of the reasons HE is so compassionate towards them; it’s also one of the reasons WE should allow ourselves to cede (had to look up to be sure) justice over to HIM in these matters

Women being the primary care giver to both us men and women… How do you suppose we each view women? Women don’t generally have relationships with women and men do I mean.

There was a time in this country when people went to therapists to get over their mistrust of people; which was obviously thought of as largely misplaced [misdirected] (or, whether valid (really?), or invalid; a hindrance to an otherwise healthy, productive life) -apparently! But that doesn’t seem to be the case any longer the case. People are genuinely untrusting, and with good reason! But we still have to be able to get out there into the world and enjoy the fruits of our labors right? We still have to get out there and contribute to the economic-wheel right? We cannot turn into zombies.

Some things you shouldn’t get over; I don’t know if your therapist has ever pointed this out to you! Some therapists will spend months with you on an issue that really isn’t an issue; other than the lack of recognition that it is something quite natural, something you should not be addressing as an issue. Other than the fact, with regards to your lack of recognition of that fact. But that ought to take about 5-quick-minutes! And shave off some of your therapists income -or certainly make room for others with genuine issues that need resolving!

FACEBOOK “I’m so tired of this f****d u* world; even after spending years trying to get back on track after the world f***** y** up; You then have to deal with it again -because people have the right to remain f****d u*! And to continue to f****** over other people!”

FACEBOOK “Next to Faith, the next best thing I know for combating fear is knowing that whatever they do to you -it doesn’t matter anymore!”

WE NEED A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON MONEY IN THIS COUNTRY!

How do you react when your partners having a great day and you’re having a s***** day.

Don’t abuse or take advantage of GOD’S gifts – More specifically, don’t abuse or take advantage of the people GOD puts in our lives!

FACEBOOK “AMERICA for example, didn’t get what it got by thinking the better of people, and other nations (or by trusting)! Albeit as non-spiritual as that may be!”

FACEBOOK “Some people struggle to be successful or to feel safe even though they genuinely go to great lengths in both areas. I am often times prone to being reckless and careless in these areas and still I somehow manage to push forward.” 🤷‍♂️

FACEBOOK “Those are the kinds of questions that can drive a person mad -because there is no answer either way -only time will tell! Questions like “Is my partner going to leave me?” Questions like “Is my partner going to stay by my side for the rest of our lives?”” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “E.T.E.O.A! Exceed The Expectations Of Others!”

FACEBOOK “People whose love dies eventually either had weak love or suspect love [was it even love*] in my humble opinion. My love for Ana is as strong as ever! And we have been through numerous hurtful situations together! And yet it still remains. I believe the true love truly never dies. Most consistent example of this is between parents and child. How hard is it to affect that love to any significant point where for example you would turn your back on them in their greatest hour of need? In most cases it’s unheard of? Except of course when the parent is either had enough [but never stopped loving them] or recognizes it’s not in their best interest to continue…”

*Things such as infatuation; rarely stand the test of time!

People and their conditional-love -Sort of like conditional pregnancy [I believe they have that now don’t they].

FACEBOOK “A lot of times many things will go up in price during a crisis. But you ever notice how in many cases they never quite seem to go back to the original price after the crisis? Human beings and their greed!”

We somehow managed for many centuries to do without continually looking at a phone. Sure there were times when people were in emergency situations where these phones now are very helpful. It doesn’t really justify the trillions of hours of people wasting on the job for example or on a date… or with their partner or loved one and constantly picking up their phones and looking at them? I don’t think so. But with the advent of the separation of society, people needed avoid filled desperately and the cell phone has turned out to be the saving grace and our demise. Just allows us to remain separate from one another which is not the solution we should be looking for. Is anybody out there paying attention? You don’t talk to people on phones -you communicate with them; A phone is a communication device and really nothing more! Get it? It was originally designed as such -and nothing more. But nowadays it’s supposed to be some kind of way of having relationships with people which is utterly ridiculous! You don’t have relationships with people through a piece of plastic. Not genuine relationships as defined by GOD’S original intention!

Avoid as much as possible getting frustrated with an apartment. And definitely avoid getting frustrated at something else and taking it out on your partner! It’s so important to keep our attitude as upbeat as possible to avoid these things! Rather than trying to conceal our frustrations in the presence of our partners-don’t you agree? Avoid stinking thinking

Oftentimes the things we are most worried about or concerned with or fearful of regarding our relationships is the thing that ends up destroying them –

Perhaps more so than anything else besides winning the lottery… People in bad relationships hate hearing about how wonderful other people’s relationships are going. As with so many other things in life, fighting, and loving relationships [oddly enough] Staying as relaxed as possible is your best chance at success!

The number one bar against change is that we enjoy those things we should change.

The majority of life doesn’t require man’s intervention!

The only thing you really need in life to feel good and feel positive is to conduct yourself properly. What other people do falls into and affects us in different categories outside of that. You know what I mean by feel good?You know what I mean by feel good? Because it wouldn’t feel right feeling good at a funeral would it?

■ As long as everybody does what they’re supposed to do and doesn’t do what they’re not supposed to do the relationship should be fine between you and between you your partner and the world. Got it?

■ Let’s just keep things light and breezy -just as it has been between us from the start.

■ Every Sunday we are going sit down and touch BRIEFLY on the trash going thru our heads for the week and dump them!

You either:

▪︎overlook something in a relationship and there’s plenty of that required

▪︎ Don’t overlook it but address it so the relationship can maintain integrity

▪︎ Address it and move on or don’t address it and move on because one should never they’re integrity and their person to be defamed to such a degree as to…. The Choice is optional with regards to stain or leaving!

I’m going to give you an order and you’re going to obey it whether you like it or not. “You’re going to exercise your own free will as you see fit -NO ARGUMENTS!” Since man is such a defined creature, maybe GOD should try this approach more often-lol

If you had the imagination of what a human being could be like at their very best… you would want to be one! And of course, if you would stop letting the world dictate who you are….

The greater the awareness, the greater the responsibility, the greater the strength required!

MASOCHISTIC

With ANA I learned not to look at a person as merely physical and to be used, but as spiritual to be loved

What’s in this will eventually come out. Likely in our relationships. It’s a good idea to be free of anything malevolent.

At this very moment there are people out there in their lives because of so much pain and so much shame.

Trust is built by getting to know a person high from but so is mistrust!

Relationships are built and formed overtime and through 1st hand interactions. GOD doesn’t expect any less of our relationship with him does HE?

Our best is always good enough for GOD -but quite often not for man!

When we have done our best, we maximize the possibility of the outcome and… We maximize in so are sales are concerned, the possibility of GOD’S plan to come to fruition! When we tell the truth regardless of the initial outcome… Regardless of the physical outcome.. The spiritual outcome is always assured!

What’s the difference between an active alcoholic with values and an active alcoholic without values?

Keeping your attitude positive by lying to yourself as one thing; keeping your attitude up by being honest with yourself is another! PATRICK O’REILLY But sometimes the only way possible in the moment for we flawed and limited human beings is to lie!

You know what the payoff is for doing things for other people and getting little from them in return? Sometimes people grow to love and admire us and see and cold and empty world has something a little more than that! Now that is not something that tends to happen in the hearts and minds of people when we are playing t** for tat!

There’s a payoff when we choose to remain above in our behavior and our character those around us who chose otherwise – Sadly, human beings are very prone to lowering themselves to the level of those around them and to give up that payoff.

Some things can only be given away and never taken away! A man’s dignity and integrity for example. Can a government force a people in every sense to do something? Can they force someone to become something other than they are! Other than they would choose to be? Can satan? Only through manipulation question mand if those manipulations exceed our own limitations.. Are we to be considered accountable? Can satan, or man’s manipulations ever exceed our own limitations?

☆☆☆☆☆We must exceed the expectations of others! How else are those around us ever to experience…????? Ah yes, renewed HOPE and FAITH in mankind -and in GOD!!!!!

We often lose faith in our fellow’s! Sometimes the only hope we have in mankind -that we can see, and therefore have positive proof of; is in ourselves! SO START THERE! 🤷‍♂️👍🏻🤷‍♀️

Trust by knowing and trusting in yourself to protect yourself from the world. But what else:

Is your partner’s attitude attitude and conduct and feelings towards you appropriate to the person you are? If you are a good and caring and thoughtful person then there are feelings of love and admiration and longing to be with you are warranted. And if these are not the feelings your partner is experiencing towards you then there’s something wrong with them -not you! I think most people are relatively sane however. In my case, it wasn’t always the case. The feelings my partner’s had for me probably… The negative one’s, the cautious one… probably all warranted! But that’s not the case anymore on my part! And there are still people out there that are gonna get their feelings regarding certain realities around them -confused! IT HAPPENS! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “In certain instances if you just clear your mind -GOD will enter! That is provided you are willing and open to HIM!”

Having 80% trust in a person you’ve known 2 months is a very good sign [or maybe its too much too soon]- Allowing yourself to be too vulnerable, to open yourself up emotionally…. I’m not sure how that works though! How do you not open yourself up emotionally too quickly? Anyways, allowing yourself to become too vulnerable too quickly is. Appropriateness I suppose is the keyword! If we become more vulnerable then we are comfortable with; Is weather voluntarily or involuntarily; It’s always going to arouse a certain amount of anxiety or fear! If we are more vulnerable then the consequences of that vulnerability we are capable of bearing [in our own minds]… 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ We run into difficulties. This is almost invariably the case!

FACEBOOK “A lot of people’s relationships have all the “Bells & Whistles”, but they lack the engine. A lot of people’s relationships have the engine but lack all the “Bells and Whistles” – Unless of course you live in America, and a few other countries -where we’re taught the necessity of all the Bells and whistles [That basically contributes to the economy; and a few more millionaires and billionaires on the planet 🤷‍♂️].”

FACEBOOK “Good things come and good things go because man has constantly got to be seeking change these days. And everybody has their own perception of what’s good and what isn’t good. You ever happened to be in charge at the time or have a mind to… The changes just keep coming. I don’t agree with homosexuality being accepted as a part of our society. What are my reasons:

■ Well 1st of all, do you really believe that the people who helped build this country and read The Bible really had it all wrong?

■ Do you really believe that the people who are struggling in modern day America to function; The hippie generation and so forth… the millennials… These people that are dismantling all of these old ideologies… who are you going to put your faith in?

■ Alcohol is a huge part of our culture. Not only are alcoholics using alcohol excessively but many people who are not alcoholics because it has become a working part of, and acceptable part of our culture. Anything that feels good [or bad 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️] to human beings, human beings are at risk of abusing. Do you think sex is any different? When we give our children the message that something that feels good is OK… A certain percentage of them are going to participate in it. People who are not alcohol extreme success. You don’t think that people who are not homosexual are going to experiment or simply engage in it because it feels good? You are sadly mistaken if you believe otherwise! You don’t know human nature and the human psyche and how it reacts under various conditions… How many men in prison engage in homosexual activity because of the deprivation they face well incarcerated? There is a lot of deprivation going on outside of prisons in modern day society… And if you don’t believe this…. do your homework! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ Once you start telling society that something is acceptable or OK… Whether in fact it is deemed right or wrong by GOD’S laws…

FACEBOOK “”We have created a culture that flies in the face of a species that has a history of jealousy and envy” -But who cares right?”

FACEBOOK “Let’s try and bring people up to where we’re at; and not go down to where they are at!”

This is nothing original of course, but when we’re gonna go out our front door -let’s try to make the world a little bit better place!

FACEBOOK “What’s difficult is all subjective isn’t it? And when someone doesn’t know what they’re doing, it’s difficult isn’t it? But that’s also subjective right? Whether you know what you’re doing; or you do not know what you’re doing; whether it’s difficult or not; it’s still subjective correct? A man for example, who knows what he’s doing with regard to women, has no trouble at all… For most of us it’s not the case however. So we would consider it difficult -if not bad luck lol.”

FACEBOOK “Not all our limitations are bad! Are a bad thing; [within/given the fabric of time (and space) that is!]”

FACEBOOK “Comparing the prices and the things you buy from people really gives a certain perspective that would be absent otherwise. Sadly, we miss out quite often on this very valuable tool or principle or philosophy. Many times we cannot even begin to ponder the idea of comparisons with X and Y and Z… THIS IS TRUE OF ALL THINGS ACTUALLY*!”

Life’s actually been good for a very long time! I think GOD has really been trying to help me through my trauma and mistrust – In spite of the world!

FACEBOOK “If you tell a cop this guy slept with my wife what is he gonna do? In spite of the fact that infidelity is a huge issue with regard to violence and mental health issues in our country.”

Sacrificing, neglecting your body IN THE SERVICE OF OTHERS!

Some people are a perfect barometer for life!

I have like an overactive mind!

I wouldn’t say a relationship with GOD is like any other -but I will say that in the sense that time spent together developing trust through experiences between one another is crucial -and GOD understands this all-too-well!

02/20/2023 [PRESIDENT’S DAY]

To my way of thinking: 🤔 I would rather choose [redirect my attention to] a suffering of my own design! Is it Defiance [“Screw you life; you’ve held “the reigns” long enough!”]? Is it Ego? Is it Self-destruction? Is it “all the above”?

Some people “take charge” of their lives very early on. And some people “never do”! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

GOD doesn’t ask for much -and what HE does ask, is for our own good! So whata’ya say? 🤔

If we are to be even the least bit deserving of what GOD gives us, what GOD grants us… WE MUST be willing to accept it under the conditions HE specifies -it’s the least we can do -DON’T YOU THINK?

Sometimes a child is actually quick enough or astute enough to add something to his regime [knowingly/unknowingly-Consciously/unconsciously]; to become so proficient at that one thing through only one mere experience in his early life. My grandparents on my mother side ment the world to meet. Their family was comprised of people of the highest values, merit. The day they, and my Uncle Harry drove me down to Los Angeles to live with my grandmother on my father’s side… My Uncle Harry proposed a number of questions to test my intelligence 🤔 Questions involving basic reasoning along the lines of physics and math[?]. “If you have a bottle that is 2″ square, with an opening twice that; and it is raining; at what rate will the bottle fill?” “I thought about it for a moment, for a minute, when grandmother stated” “Oh, leave him alone Harry”. This was at 6 -going on my 7th birthday [December 1969-January 1970ish]. I wonder if this brief exercise in reasoning, so prevalent in me later in life -actually layed the foundation for making these these writings?

When you have 7+ billion people who have BECOME TOO BIG [INDIVIDUALLY] -THIS PLANET STARTS LOOKING VERY, VERY SMALL!

Our demeanor and our spirit are comprised of our mind and our heart? Only one inward; and one outward -expression!

Some people make their experiences in early life out to be much worse than they actually were! When you can begin to look back on your own life and realize that 🤔 That it wasn’t all bad, that it wasn’t so bad when you balance out the good… There’s something very magical in that moment!

The only excuse you need for doing a kind act; for making a [significant] sacrifice for another -IS LOVE! So, stop piddling around with all those other lame excuses to try and comfort yourself, or justify what you’ve given up [or lost]! 🤔

We should never be envious of anyone’s good fortune! Don’t you realize the difficulty of living on this plane of existence -And just how desperately in need we are of rooting for one another? I’ll say it again, we should never be envious of anyone’s good fortune -let alone those we presumably claim we love! 🤔

When something good happens to somebody on the job, do you complain to your boss that it’s unfair? You often feel that in the back of your mind since you are either unworthy, or unliked by your boss, or whatever other reasons simply will not be able to garner the same praise or recognition or affection that your coworker received -that the next best thing is to try and have that “special-treatment” towards your coworker retracted? How would you feel if the same was done to you? But if you had worked extra hard on a project that no one but you and your boss were aware of -and your coworkers tried to have the reward you were granted taken away? Can you say with certain -that you know everything that’s going on between your boss and your fellow coworkers? The thing to keep in mind here is not to take away from people who deserve something but to try and fight for what you deserve! Far too often we choose the negative rather than the positive! When something good is happening to somebody, don’t try to take that away from them!

We still don’t understand the universe. If we did, we wouldn’t be sifting through every aspect of it -to try and find individual answers! We would have “the answer”!

The general problem with people is quite elementarary “My dear Watson” -“duality”! We have the one side of us for when people treat us “one-way”; and we have the other side of us for when people treat us “another way”! JESUS -only had one side to HIM!

Some people are satisfied in their relationships and still cheat. Some people will not cheat in their relationships as long as they’re satisfied -but is that good enough? The place you want to be at is through-thick-and-thin -you will not cheat!

Some people give double points, even triple points for the things you do for them. Some give you point straight up. Others a 1/2 a point instead of a full point. Some a quarter point instead of a full point. And others, nothing at all. And finally, others will give you nothing but grief!

GOD not only rewards us for what we do, HE [unlike man] rewards our efforts in spite of [in standing up to] our own limitations as well.

FACEBOOK “People may not respect a doormat; but they definitely respect a person who can take a punch -and continue to be there for them! That particular trait seems to have a profound effect on alot of people!” JESUS!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

FACEBOOK “You can always tell who is in power -because things tend to bend their way. And right now the direction things seem to be bending in is with the government and with corporate America, not with the American public! You look at the 20th century and it wasn’t the case!”

FACEBOOK “You notice there are a lot more rich people in this country these days [and alot more people struggling*]? They get there by over-charging the public! There’s a directly proportional relationship between overcharging the public and excessive profits [how else do you get there????]! But some Americans seem to like the idea of having billionaires in this country! Some people seem to like the idea that our politicians live lavish lifestyles! Really? Additionally, when a company is buying up billion dollar companies, you know they’ve been overcharging you and me!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

*At any given time, there’s a line drawn in a society such as ours where people are struggling and people are not struggling. I’m guessing that as that line goes up, and the number of people in the society that are struggling increases… The more profits are being sucked out of them -and the greater the number of people who are getting rich; or, the richer a few are getting! Remember, there’s only so much to go around! If we lived in a world of unlimited resources; The need to be charitable would be rendered pointless!

FACEBOOK “Telling the truth can be as risky as telling a joke -Perhaps even more so!”

FACEBOOK “The greatest orator, and spiritualist -to ever walk the Earth; spoke truth with love!”

Egos don’t always come out when it comes to material objects or inanimate objects-but it did with me!

Some things we have to shrink down, and with other things we have to grow up! And with some things we have to shrink down karma and with other things we have to grow up!

People don’t generally hang out where they’re uncomfortable That includes inside or outside of themselves! People who are not comfortable with being happy tend to be unhappy People who are uncomfortable with being unhappy tend to be happy. And some people fight through it. And some people make a living out of being uncomfortable and performing just the same. It’s a real gift I suppose! I don’t know if too many EMT’s or doctors or nurses who are entirely comfortable with these taxing and stressful situations.

EGO! FEAR! IMMATURITY! SKEWED-THINKING! MALICIOUSNESS! IGNORANCE! SELF-INTEREST!

FACEBOOK “I think most of the time people are willing to admit to an error provided it doesn’t cost them too much [punitively, materially, egotisticaly]. I think most of the time people who do things intentionally wrong, out of malice, will not admit it!”

FACEBOOK “How is it that things were flexible years ago; and now they’re not flexible -Isn’t flexibility a good thing? Companies used to be able rectify mistakes on their part; and now they’re saying they can’t! Why not? For one thing the inflexibility is to their advantage. Anytime somebody is inflexible personally; it’s usually because it’s gonna cost them something otherwise. Correct me if I’m wrong?” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ [set in their ways?]

FACEBOOK “There’s speaking up to get a particular outcome; and there’s speaking up for yourself irregardless -or even though you know it’s not going to do any good in so far as the outcome. JESUS knew it was futile to try and save Judas; but HE had to be who HE was; and HE had to do what HE needed to do regardless*! So, this answer’s the “age-old-question” “Should we do something even though we know we’re going to fail?” “If that’s who we are -then that’s who we need to keep being.” “And, 🤔 if that’s not who we are [right now] -but who we need to be -then maybe we should practice “this” more!”

*”The fish needed to be the fish; and the old man needed to be the old man!”

I tell you, be prepared for anything; and everything!

FACEBOOK “One of the greatest gifts GOD ever gave to man was -his ability to learn from his mistakes. To learn from failure and to learn from disappointment! But in a Modern-day-America where arrogance and entitlement are more-and-more “the order-of-the day” -man is not interested in these things; he’s interested in success, and winning, and prevailing!”

FACEBOOK “If JESUS knew the outcome; and did the right thing anyways…. Shouldn’t we who do not know the outcome; do the right thing period?”

Corporate America and the government used to fear Americans; but not anymore! What happens when people lose their fear? Not obeying the laws of the land are deeply embedded in fear [for many, and in increasing numbers I believe (or decreasing numbers of people fear consequences -because in many ways, those consequencesno longer exist -flailing social stigma; and an America that isn’t just divided, but breaking down into little groups here-and-there that have no real power to shape things or change things anymore)]. How many people obey laws because they have good values and how many people obey laws because they’re afraid of the consequences? That’s a huge question that needs answering! What percentage of people do the right thing because they have values and what percentage of the people do the right thing because they’re afraid not to? And when you have an individual or a society that no longer has the fear of not doing the right thing and does not have the proper values in place as well…. You end up with a free-for-all! Either values or consequences have to hold us accountable! But I don’t believe that a society can exist based on fear of consequences alone!

FACEBOOK “OUT TO LUNCH?” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ “WE cannot shape OUR country by being overworked, under-informed [or misinformed], and basically being made to feel helpless, and hopeless!” Besides: If the owner of a company is hardly there; eventually, it’s gonna start looking more and more like the company of the people who are there!”

FACEBOOK “What people absolutely dislike “is a person who dislikes people”.”

FACEBOOK “People’s denial is very different when they’re being accused of something they know is true; versus being accused of something they know is a lie!”

FACEBOOK “The people who people tend to want to draw near to -tend to have a warmth and a joy to them.”

FACEBOOK “Getting in touch with what really matters in life begins with thinking about what really matters in life*.”

*But just how do we become aware of something we’re unaware of? “It’s a little bit like learning how to dislike something [or someone] we really like.” Do you see the comparison? One a matter of awareness; the other a matter of willingness. Awareness & Willingness go hand-in-hand don’t you think!

There’s always a right move and a wrong move, even on the basketball court or football field for example.

FACEBOOK “It [often] comes down to what we’re familiar with, what we’re comfortable with, what we are worthy of!”

Awareness is (a mysterious) an incredible thing -we all seem to have it in varying degrees.

FACEBOOK “The more comfortable you get with being comfortable* -the healthier you are becoming!”

*AHEM -Not things we shouldn’t be comfortable with!

When people made a meager living… Things seemed more affordable to those who were poor. But since nobody wants to be poor anymore things; are less affordable! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ Trying to “undo” this attitude “takes discipline”. We’re used to seeing undisciplined people here and there; while the main core of society maintain its integrity. These outliers generally struggled to adopt the sort of discipline that could bring them into the mainstream. But now we have an entire generation that is undisciplined and lacking the sort of discipline that could bring them back to where their predecessors were.

“Analyze “E”verything “I”nstead “O”f [an attitude of “knowing it’s right there” will often precipitate(?), promote…].

Is the penalty too high for crime in this country? One thing is obvious; People who commit crimes, don’t want to accept “the consequences”. But what about people who don’t, are they any different? I was told “people are people” regardless of “the time” or “the place”! Most men “feel the need” to “justify their actions” -bullies for example develop an “get to them from now on before they get to me” Attitude. Weak? Sensitive people?

FACEBOOK “We’re like a bunch of fish now -chasing after a worm on a hook. We can’t go back to the old way. Sure we can! But it takes the sort of character and discipline you don’t have!”

Most people have a window. Not of opportunity. But of “being this, or being that”. They, 🤔 we don’t tend to be “all over the spectrum -we’re generally at one end, or the other, but with a “window” to operate within. Some people however, appear to have an enormous window [of spectrum]. People who are highly-intelligent for example -tend to struggle [score poorly] in certain other areas (socially?). People who are good in “english” tend not to do so well in “math” I’ve noticed!

FACEBOOK “Some people try to get thru life looking for positive things outside of themselves; some people [actually] get thru life by making the choice [or simply have the gift] of being positive [they seem to carry their own light].”

FACEBOOK “We have to die; and we have to make a choice* [choose a side]. Oh goodness, you didn’t know there was “a side!” If there was “no side”, I think GOD would have given us an out! HE did make one exception perhaps “those who truly DO NOT KNOW ANY BETTER will be granted special considerations!”

*And of course, not making a choice -is a choice!

FACEBOOK “I see all kinds of things in the world -beautiful and tragical! Some people cannot, will not, look at both -and be happy! They’re looking for supreme-happiness! Realistically 🤔 life is JOY; life is SORROW! Trying to skew this was the whole point of addiction -wasn’t it???”

FACEBOOK “Bringing out the worst in people doesn’t excuse them or you! Regardless of what side of that coin you , or theyhappen to be on!” 👫 ☺

The thought of coming up with my own idea [concept] of GOD is frightening to me as an alcoholic with control issues, complete self-centeredness, and a closed mind*! My higher power today is the one that I started out with as a boy. My Higher-Power is the one in which millions of pages have been written about. 🤷‍♂️ Sometimes you gotta trust other people. Sometimes you gotta have faith in GOD working through other people.

*But it’s probably a great exercise in countering; and improving upon…

Your problem is you go places in your mind you shouldn’t – Places that affect your ability to function adequately in the world, and to interact satisfactorily with others; but maybe, just maybe -it is “the catalyst” of, for, “these writings”?

If there is no GOD, then explain to me how human beings can FXN for years; even decades off of nothing even closely resembling proper nutrition? Try that with a car!

People draw from a number of areas in order to accomplish things in life. You probably wouldn’t believe some of the things people have relied upon in order to accenglish certain things in life, certain things throughout history!

There are things you can buy that go up in value and things that you can buy that go down in value. Try to have a balance.

Like a maze, instead of thinking about where you should go, think about where you need to go! Losing to win -remember?

How many of us tend to buy gifts for people we like? Why not buy a gift for someone you don’t like-you might get lucky! It’s 5050 don’t you think?

“Build each other up!”

When you ask GOD for good things he will generally Grant them! Provided it doesn’t have the potential to be harmful! Provided we don’t turn it into something harmful!

Can we heal a cut? No! “Only” assist in it getting better, rather than worse! Can we create a life?

Things go up but they don’t go down price wise. And when they’re supposed to come companies don’t drop them down as much as they should. Some company’s.

“BE THE REASON SOMEBODY BELIEVES SOBRIETY IS “A GOOD THING”.”

When we give “it” our all; we have done everything within our power to make GOD’S PLAN come to fruition [to not interfere with it anyways]. We have done our part -and that’s all GOD will ever ask of any of us”.

When one person abuses a privilege; we all lose! In fact, human beings are the ones responsible for why our government continues to put more and more restrictions and pause launch. In fact, human beings are the ones responsible for why our government continues to put more and more restrictions and laws on us! By “the juvenile behaviors” of a few! And, the public goes along with it. A country considered free that has more laws than any other country by double at minimum -is no free country at all!

Not everything everyone finds interesting -is interesting. Some things people find interesting -are actually extraordinary!

A lot of people go on eBay selling stuff saying it is an excellent condition. Does that mean it has been used very little or it has been used a lot but still looks great? Excellent condition to me implies both use and appearance not just appearance. But we all know human beings right…

A lot of friendships end or never even get started because we get disappointed. Ever stop to think maybe we’re not supposed to rely on people in that particular area? This person in that particular area? Or maybe we’re supposed to demonstrate to them how to act in that particularly. But if we brush them off… It’s an injustice. Anytime we are given an opportunity to be an example to another person who is weak or wanting in a particular area… we should make our selves available! Friendships or crossing paths with another person are not always about what’s in it for us -strange, or foreign as that may sound. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

GOD does not readily or severely punish people for doing things that are highly offensive to us -but not to HIM -GOT IT?

When somebody harms us, or those we love, we want retribution; When we harm somebody else, or their loved-ones, we want mercy! Always the double-standard!

We see two strangers fighting; while GOD sees two of HIS children fighting! If you found out a complete stranger molested your daughter what would your reaction be? If you found out one of your own children molested your daughter what would your reaction be?

Well, here’s why – Aside from the fact that it’s better to believe in GOD and discover there isn’t one than to disbelieve in GOD and discover there is one – Doesn’t it feel better to do the right thing?

CTMU [Chris Langan] The existence of GOD can be proven if GOD is properly defined in the first place! ABSOLUTELY!

Never initiate or bring a problem in do your relationships with other people. And when they do, try and de-escalate the situation and get into the solution as quickly as possible!

Seldom do good things come from “poor-decision-making”.

If:

●AA is a spiritual program

● And AA works

● Then we must have a spirit!

● That means there’s more required of us than getting laid and stuffing our faces and…

They say it’s all about the journey not the destination -but after you’ve been doing it for a while you have to have an idea of at least the direction you’re headed in [what it looks like as you trek onward -surely the scenery is changing (for the better)🤷‍♂️]!

Some people have to work hard to get their heart-beat going. To get their wavelengths jumping up-and-down. And some of us have to work very hard to go flat-hyphen to have some sort of consistency within a certainAnd some of us have to work very hard to go flat-hyphen to have some sort of consistency within a certain framework of normalcy!

When you are finally willing to be at the bottom; it doesn’t bother you anymore how high others fly! When you are no longer in competition, or have an ax to grind “YOU CAN BE HAPPY FOR EVERYONE!” 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

G.H.S.I.A. “GOD HAS SEEN IT ALL” -GOD THEREFORE KNOWS PRECISELY… AND GENERALLY FORGIVES” IF HE DIDN’T -HE WOULDN’T BE GOD, BUT SOMETHING ELSE! IF A MAN CAN FORGIVE A MAN -THEN GOD…!

If GOD knows everything about us and still loves us; then shouldn’t that tell us something? Tell us [who know little, or nothing about one another (or not even “everything about our ‘loved-ones’ for example)] how we should proceed? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

☆☆☆☆☆STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM THERE AS POSSIBBLE!!!!!

For some people happiness is literally a matter of “mind-over-matter”! Their lives are essentially good; but their minds are not!

A little known fact – “One of the surest ways to GOD” is 🤔thru living in the moment!

The counselor spoke of a “competetive-aspect” to we humans -but driving out on the road in traffic -REALLY????? Jobs -to the point of trying to ruin one another -REALLY????? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

“Them that mind don’t matter; and them that matter don’t mind”.

Don’t worry HUN “win-to-win, lose-to-win”; 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ as long as we have Faith! Remember the courtroom movie with Bruce Willis? “Act as if ye have Faith -and Faith will be given unto thee” [Paul Newman]. -David Mamet- M&R 👫

“Either way we win when “WE TRUST IN GOD”!” M&R 👫

It’s easy to trust in GOD when things are “going our way”! For many of us however, “our trust-curve” drops off dramatically when literally “put to the test”! What good is “TRUST THAT DISSIPATES” [had to look up spelling; definition -shrink, or vaporize] when needed most?

You don’t have to talk to people disrespectfully. Besides 🤔 – do you really believe “others” are the only ones you are disrespecting?

Unless you are pure; life is going to exact from you a price [tax you] -somewhere, somehow!

People do stupid things all the time 😏🤔

People often do what the want to do. We see the wreckage that ensues. Sometimes however, what people want to do is 🤔 “the right thing”; had they not converged, they probably would have done it!

Selfishness doesn’t cover every one of the 7-deadly-sins; Self-interest does.

The person with the most sobriety is THE ONE WITH THE MOST GOD IN THEM!

We created this world of an uneven playing field with the ruleschools favoring certain individuals… and then we complain because people are out illegally trying to level the playing field. What’s worse is that a lot of people who are creating this uneven playing field are are far more protected than those less responsible for creating it. But are they less responsible? A couple of million compared to the 7080 or 1A 150 million who sit back idle…

If you have “the inner-child; but your adult is weak; or malformed; or mal-nourished… 🤷‍♂️

it’s very hard for alot of people “not to respond positively” to kindness [or to differentiate between fake (motivated by personal gain) and sincere].

We’re supposed to give a shit about people more than things; more than our own possessions! It took me a few times (having given thought to) to finally agree with the law that you can’t shoot people while running off with your property!

Start getting that “old-feeling” like you can’t trust people anymore -so you “start building that wall”! “Things” in “everyday-life” can trigger that “early-inclination” or “tendency”! When MAGGIE SAYS” You’re everything I always wanted in a partner” it goes against “just about everyone else’s “actions” [and attitudes] from the past*! It’s a hard climb “downhill” for you!

*People get rejected because “they don’t fit”. Funny thing about people, because they have “a brain” and “an ego” is that they sometimes have “a very funny notion” about who fits, and who doesn’t. For one thing, “SINCE WE’RE ALL HUMAN-BEINGS”… 🤔🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

“If I choose to walk out of this meeting; begin to see people as the enemy [once again]; retreat to my “fortress” then I am NO LONGER ABLE TO BE USEFUL TO OTHERS, NOR TO GOD!”

It was bound too happen; man’s ability, if not his propensity to:

■Stay busy [getting out of hand] in order to survive, 🤔 also works in order to thrive. Additionally;

■Stay busy in order to get away from the more difficult aspects of life -> “of humanity” [others, as well as our own]. “As long as we have “plenty of money” Who needs “growth”; who needs social and personal improvement -too much work, too much pain, and where others are concerned 😟 “NO guarantees*“👎

*That is often man’s “go-to-excuse”, “Why should I do “x”; if the other feller isn’t doing it?” And what we end up with with this sort of mentality is an epidemic of laps in personal responsibility; laps in personal integrity!

Whether we want to admit it or not, we let down the current generation by things “WE” set in motion decades earlier! Some look back when “their grandfather” could work and buy a home for grandmother. Now* [and it continues to get worse], two people working can’t afford a home. I joked with my counselor “pretty soon they’re going to have to put the dog to work to afford a house”!

*But you and I both know people are overworked, and overcharged for a number of reasons: Long ago during the feminist movement:

■Two earners means two tax-payers;

■Two earners means “we can raise the price on merchandise and/or sell twice as much product annually”;

■Two earners means there is no one to mind the store at home,so; 🤔 government, and corporate-america can have increasing influence on up-and-coming-generations [which they clearly have:

●Producing generation-after-generation of better consumers;

●Producing generation-after-generation of a people who pose less resistance to “STRONG-GOVERNMENT”! Which clearly is the case. But hey, why stop there? 🤔 And I’ll even throw in an example below;

●Life is either about competition, or about altruism! In a society that is more and more skewed towards the former rather than the latter… The gloves come off, all bets are off, look out for number one… And when AA society becomes more materialistic and feels the odds are increasingly stacked against… And I’ll add in one additional caveat, when values in that society begin to plunder<- [wrong word] “FALTER”, MAN* STARTS THINKING OF WAYS NOT ONLY TO SOAR ABOVE THE COMPETITION, BUT HOW TO “TRIP-THE-COMPETITION-UP” NOT ONLY FOR THEMSELVES [IF THEY STILL HAVE A FEW SCRUPLES LEFT], BUT THAT OF THEIR CHILDREN, AND THEIR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN [a thought from 20 some years ago: How many generations ahead does the average human being think? 2? 3? 4? Shakes his head! Pollution? Waste and greed of limited resources! Jeeeeeeez 🤷‍♂️🤔]! **You see, you may think we are “taking pot-shots” at select groups, or individuals; but the fact of the matter is that “just about everyone on this planet” is culpable*! Save for “The truly exploited and oppressed”!

*If you really want to screw over your enemy!!!!! Get him at his earliest point in development where he is weak, vulnerable, impressionable, and probably a few other things I can’t think of at the moment [instill helplessness, hopelessness… depression and stress- induced “addictions”]! 🤔 Once you have created a highly dysfunctional individual, they will become THEIR OWN CHILDREN’S “WORST ENEMY***”! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ Ingenius???? Nah, SICK!!!! What we humans are, and what we have the potential to be[come] is often quite dispariting & disparaging!

**Anyone capable of “responsible action”, and fails to “take that action”! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

***Set off a “chain-reaction” [which we are in fact experiencing in America as we speak]! Ever greater gap between “the-haves and have-nots” ring any bells? Mental health issues through the roof which have created more jobs and less competition [of one kind atleast] in the workforce. And for many people, mental health means “BIG-BUSINESS****”!

****This business of of surviving, and thriving is even more inexusable, BASED UPON “THE MISFORTUNE OF OTHERS”… I mean when people start CREATING THESE SCENARIOS IN ORDER TO PROFIT… [Oh believe me, you look at history and people have done far worse]! You don’t think people in the high-tech business have inserted viruses into the public domain so that people can come to them to have those viruses removed? I saw a movie where the guy creates a problem; shows up to solve it -and ends up looking the hero -Scott Glenn? 🤔 Anyways, I’m tired, discouraged -enough about ALL THIS!!!! 😥

Worrying “lacks Faith” -A human-being when worrying -becomes weakened! A human-being who “lacks Faith” -is “highly-vulnerable”! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ “Weak & Vulnerable” [one or the other is bad enough] is a BAD PLACE TO BE!

I could never figure out why a company would want to sell something to somebody for less who’s gonna turn around and sell it for more! 🤔 Maybe it’s ethics? A need for us to work together in order to survive? Well, that seems to be “going-out-the-door” rather quickly in this country! You can’t have “HIGHER-PRINCIPLES” and “maximum-profits”! Atleast not to man’s “current way of thinking”. So what man is doing is “dismantling” many of the principles of “his predecessors”, so he can make “greater gains”!

“We can ALWAYS talk about our selves; but there is SO MUCH MORE to talk about!” 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ THINK ABOUT IT 🤔 WE ARE “FREE TO TALK ABOUT ANYTHING” and yet, 🤔 so many of us can only think of talking about our selves! 🙄

FACEBOOK “I’m telling you, you people who are young, and poor, or broke [or not-so-much]; and envious of the rich! Many of them would give their entire fortune to have what you have -YOUTH! 🤷‍♂️ “You have options, they don’t!””🤔

Why put off for tomorrow what you can do today! Think about it!

If your [alcoholic/addict] mind insists on thinking of something -think about GOD! Pray for others!

People with “low self-esteem” versus people with “healthy esteem”. Let’s try it this way:

▪︎When my esteem is up I find myself questioning my worth or value;

▪︎ When my esteem is down I find myself not questioning my worth or value [but it’s very much a feeling, not just cognitive].

Ever think about the people from other eras [past or present], you, or I:

▪︎Share similarities with;

▪︎Could have really hit it off with;

▪︎Could have fallen in love with [mutually];

▪︎I wonder if those who were never able to find love in their own Era will find it in Heaven with perhaps someone from a different era?

It’s a good thing to study GOD’S LAWS [Bible] & man’s law’s!

You great books:

▪︎The Bible;

▪︎ The dictionary.

That’s what A MASTER IS: Someone who can do “that thing” you or I cannot do, extraordinarily well! For example, I can’t fathom knowing “precisely” where “the strings are” while playing the guitar [not hitting “the wrong string” [agterall, they are SO CLOSE TOGETHER]. 🤷‍♂️

Are you the type of person that whether your partner is overweight and loses weight, whether your partner has low self esteem and then manages to find good self esteem… they still want to be with you? Or are you the type of person people want to be with because they have low self esteem and feel as if nobody else would want them? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

A lot of people in this country have great ideas but they won’t share them with you online for example because they want to sell them and make money rather than help their fellow human beings. I’m all for making a living-but once you achieve that status, then what? You’re gonna keep on selling things as opposed to giving things away?

Can’t have it both ways:

▪︎ Ignore or even trample on GOD’S wishes, and;

▪︎ Have HIS blessings at the same time. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

* But ohhhh how some of us try! 😔

Without examples, without someone to teach us; We can take a very long time to learn! I DON’T THINK GOD INTENDED IT THAT WAY! BUT IT APPEARS WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TEACHERS; RUNNING OUT OF EXAMPLES!!!!

In GOD’S UNIVERSE there’s basically one way of doing things; but here on planet earth, there appears to be multiple ways of getting the job done -it has to be that way “for” man, otherwise he would rarely accomplish anything since he seldom gets thing right according to how “THE ALMIGHTY WOULD HAVE THEM DONE”. Additionally, on relationships, “there’s a difference between doing something wrong and not doing it the way “your partner would prefer things to be done”. Alot of people in “American culture” want all sunshine and rainbows -like “The best parts of a romantic novel!

Sometimes I think we take this matter of “carrying one’s own water” a bit too far. We try to make people who are not entirely responsible or able, entirely responsible or able! It’s also a very convenient philosophy for avoiding carrying your brother’s water when he is unable. WHY CAN’T WE JUST…

The system is designed; is supposed to be designed to serve man. But how often do we see the exact opposite? Those men who try to manipulate the system; to use it as a go-between in order to exploit their fellows? Now in order to make this work, they have to make their fellow man: either serve the system; or make him subordinate to it. Thus making him subordinate to the man on the other side of the system. WHY CAN’T WE JUST…

FACEBOOK “Your job is to be the best person you can be; and never mind about what other people are thinking; and never mind about what you think other people are thinking.”

If we don’t want people robbing from each other then don’t make material things the most important thing among that society. And don’t make a shift where there is a gap creating two very lopsided sectors of that society! Once again, we create our own problems. And the rich and powerful who are probably as much or more to blame, have a greater ability to protect themselves from the problem then do the weak and the poor. So their attitude is indifferent because they think they can have the best of both worlds. REMEMBER THIS: OFTEN TIMES, THE PEOPLE WITH THE PROBLEM; DON’T HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE CHANGE*. THE PEOPLE WITH THE POWER TO MAKE CHANGE, DON’T HAVE THE PROBLEM -THIS MUST CHANGE! ONE FINAL THOUGHT 🤔 IF IT WERE OTHERWISE: All the peoples of the world who have problems would be using whatever resources available to them to solve those problems -and the rich and the powerful and elite who are basking in excesses while the rest of the world struggle with the same old problems day-after-day -would be s*** out of luck; because then there would be no excess to bask in**!

*Like for example the people you talk to with customer servicall many of them don’t have the power to solve our problems, and the ones that do we never get to talk to. It’s a system that prevents problems from being solved at the expense of the company. W.A.B.O’.S.

**You, and I don’t know the half of what human beings are doing to each other in this planet

We the people pay taxes so when the shit hits the fan, the elite are the ones protected? People we don’t even like? REALLY?????

Would you trust a stranger with your wallet? Well how is it, how has it come to pass that we trust politicians with our very lives; with the lives of those we care most about; people we don’t even know, or trust, or like????

FACEBOOK “Once we give over our power through voting… it is very hard to change that which was put into place by giving over our power.”

FACEBOOK “We fire employees at fast food restaurants on the spot for far less than some of the things going on in Washington which take months and years to get rid of these idiots. In many cases we never get rid of them. Now we’re not talking about fast food here; we’re talking about people responsible for the lives of millions in many instances. Just what in the h*** is wrong with this picture? It’s more than just unfairness or injustice or a double standard -we are scared shitless to be leaderless. And another thing is that we know all too well our own frailty and our own limitations and our own flaws. Therefore we must have some inkling of our fellow man’s as well. I mean on a subconscious level we must be granting some degree of understanding to this whole miss that never seems to go away! But to the people on top show us the same?”

“Sometimes I wonder, why don’t we ever run out of sand? After millions of years of wind -surely it must have moved to another area? And what of erosion for millions of years -surely everything you would think would be laid flat, or filled-in by now lol? GOD!!!!!!”🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Just because it happens to be true doesn’t mean we should say it. Yes it happens to be a lie…Sometimes what we think is a lie turns out being the truth!

Some people look great, but their body-chemistry is not -how shall we say 🤔 ideal! Toxic blood?

Competition brings prices down. So why wouldn’t businesses want to eliminate competition by cooperating between themselves -if not monopolizing?

Don’t waste your time and energy getting angry at the people who hurt the people you love, use your time and your energy comforting the people you love.

It’s not indifference that prevents GOD from acting, it’s strength! Strength combined with wisdom and love (atleast that’s our humanistic viewing capability)!

A movie for example has 2 values:

▪︎ It’s own, and;

▪︎That of the public’s value of it.

Entertainment is so successful in this country because a lot of people use it to run away.

I’ndividualistic: Man insists on being individual in his conduct and in his person. To the point where we cannot even be consistent with the 2 most important areas:

• How we treat each other, and;

• How we rear our children. M&R 👫

If we cannot even love someone else’s child… the foundation of all human connection!

Humans are so material, physical… too much! Comfort, safety.

What past tissues did your partner have in their relationships? Have they resolved their sexual issues they were abused?

There’s a difference between having the best you’ve ever had and having what you want-a lot of relationships start out Gray because they’re better than anything before, but then as the person begins to find themselves they realize this person isn’t everything they ever wanted.

Is it a good thing to be able to tell a partner everything about you and still be accepted? Let me replace that, is there a good thing to be able to tell a partner everything? Is it a good thing to have a partner you can tell everything too? Well I suppose that depends on what you “have” to tell them. Is it safe to say that a healthy person can only take so much? Or should only take so much?

Do the very best that you can buy your partner: If that’s good enough 👍🏻; If it’s not 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ If your best isn’t good enough in your relationship then it wasn’t meant to be-but how many of us narrow give our best? How can we not do our best on the job for example, lose that job or get let go… and then say “Guess it wasn’t meant to be?”

People generally lie to avoid, and fake to get!

People often fake because either it takes too long to become the genuine-article; or they never will be. There’s so much lying and faking going on in this country. 2 reasons:

▪︎ We’re very judgemental of each other;

▪︎ Because unfortunately -it works*!

Why do politicians lie and manipulate? Because it works! Why do men* lie to women to get him in the sack? Because it works! In both cases “often”** because we want something for nothing. Something we should be doing for ourselves! So we set ourselves up. We are our own worst enemy.

*Men often lie because it’s the only way they can get anywhere. If [some] women were more accepting, and more humble… Men wouldn’t have to lie would they?

**Selfish and self-centered driven motives!

Once a person has become [been made] aware of something, they are changed forever [I remember 🤔 hearing this exact conversation as a little boy at my stepmom’s parents house -found it quite odd as they were very simple people; but sharp nonetheless].

One of the reasons society is so screwed up is that people don’t dare reveal their true selves; their true problems. We’re not only not a very open society; but we’re also a very judgmental one. We have problems we refuse to reveal, and; we judge others when we discover theirs! How screwed up is that! The 1st step in getting better is being honest with ourselves. The 2nd one is… [Sometimes] Opening up to others [which sometimes helps us with the 1st]. We fear, and rightfully so, losing our relationships, losing our friendships, losing our very livelihood by being open about who we really are. A society is not only measured by its attitude towards those in need [how it treats the weak, the vulnerable], but it’s attitude towards who one another truly are! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Once a person has become [been made] aware; they are changed forever. Hollywood, the advent of video [acting, portraying on stage…TV, theatre, drama, movies, instructionals…] brings a whole slew/sleu of awareness’s to humanity. Many of those awarenesses are good. But in a society that is slow to change… Those awarenesses create issues among [its] people. People for example, watch a movie and they see certain attributes in an actor or character and then they turn around and look at their own partners* [often in utter disgust, disillusionment, disappointment]. A lot of people don’t even realize they’re being abused -who are in fact. Abuse can be very subtle! Very hard to catch! Especially when we want something to succeed so badly!

*And if our partners refuse to change**? Seeing that person in a different light day after day, week after week, year after year can wear on a person. It’s not just that people we are in partnership with are unhealthy [and the often startling awareness(es) that has/ve somehow been brought to light], it’s our immature, narrow/limited, self-serving, inexperienced mentality that is at issue as well!

**Part of the issue in our country is… as I disclosed to a friend of mine Dale a couple of years ago… “Character-building in this society does not seem to be a top priority.” If you bring awareness into a society that is unwilling [slow; say over generations] to change… PROBLEMS*** 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

***Perhaps this is an even bigger cause of divorce in this country!

Sometimes people kissing a**, appealing to a person’s ego, or appealing to [needling on] some hidden underlying issue 🤔 -WORKS!

We think of exploiting someone in our lifetime so that we ourselves can enjoy the spoils. Now there are people who see this plan over the course of generations. A very interesting approach. Considering they themselves who initiated it won’t be alive to see the end result. This is actually somewhat spiritual in nature save for the exploitation part. As they say, “satan knows The Bible better than anyone.” 👹

02/06/2023

Some people can’t seem to avoid being successful! Some people can’t seem to avoid having trouble having time to themselves.

With regard to various people in our lives…. Sometimes we just can’t seem to get well enough in time!

There are some real geniuses out there that can’t quite it to the top; And yet there seem to be some people with below average intelligence who do! So what does that tell us?

NWO “if we can get, or reach “just enough…” 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Families ask for X, Y, Z…. NOT REALIZING THAT IF YOU MUTIPLY THAT REQUEST BY 10X 20X [PATIENTS UNDER THEIR CARE], ITS NOT SO FEASIBLE!

Be prepared to be COMPASSIONATE [among other things] AT ALL TIMES!!!!

“Is your “Respect-meter” set @ “MAXIMUM-SETTING” at all times???”

What idiot didn’t think that eventually all this pollution would begin to destroy this plan at? Or were we only concerned with how it affected our generation?

The rich and the desperate keep businesses from closing are lowering their prices!

Would you fight someone if they cut in line in front of you?

They’re going to start classifying foods! Fat! Sugar! And price them accordinly… The more time a man has on his hands… and the greedier he becomes…. When man has a lot of time on his hands he tends to think about how he can better his own situation!

One should not be thinking in terms of “keeping the relationship going”, but in terms of “keeping the relationship growing”!

From pain 💔 😢 😪 😞 😔 😫 people either grow cold [toward others psin] or sensitive [to others pain] or something in between!

At times it feels impossible to fail! At other times it feels impossible to succeed!

You can’t always flinch because you didn’t get the reaction from that special person you were hoping for.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

A person get thrown off “their balance-beam” [tilted/jilted] by something overwhelmingly bad or good [Maggie and “the $500.00”]. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

I am at my worst when “I worry” [lack FAITH] and “am into self”. This seems to be when my “personality-disorder” thrives! “NO GOD and KNOW GOD”. When “THE SELF” takes center-stage and GOD gets pushed to the side. Like I stated previously “sometimes it feels impossible to fail [like I’m on top of the world]; other times it feels as if “the weight of the 🌎 is upon my shoulders [I don’t like that feeling]. And every time “the latter” comes around “I flynch”. I don’t want to keep putting Maggie through this. I’ve already had a couple of “minor-episodes”. I’m here to COMFORT, not to complain [be comforted]. I’m here to give, not to take [receive]. I seem to try and get through the day with minimal contact with GOD; and that just doesn’t seem to work! When I worry; when I doubt myself; that’s when I know “I’ve strayed too far”!

The only one who is ever guaranteed to win the lottery is the government! It’s amazing -because people hate paying taxes to the government! A 100 years ago none of this b******* would have flown along with paying money to pay a bill and buying water. F****** people are just getting rich off of us man. What happened to this country? People wouldn’t put up with his b******* before. And another thing, this country couldn’t survive if people were sitting around their houses like “The Waltons” in the evening talking to each other; showing an interest in one another’s lives [instead of out spending money; weak as a result of being disconnected from one another; oh, and uninformed or misinformed (man’s playing a game with his fellows “a power game” -which is really weakness when you think about it [seeking power in the weakest arena])! They need for us to be overworked and separated from one another and therefore empty and needy”! The “Addiction-model”.

How many times do I have to say it “Just because it’s legal -doesn’t mean it’s right!” “Just because it’s illegal -doesn’t mean it’s wrong!” 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ Man, society, the authorities… don’t always get it right [or wrong 🤔].

Sometimes it’s better for the soul to live in the past rather than in the present! But sometimes it’s better for our relationships to live in the present rather than in the past! 🤔

A person has the power in most cases to either make a person not care about them one way or another or to fall deeply in love!

Not wanting to be there for people is one thing; Not feeling up to being there for people is one thing; Having something else you’d rather be doing rather than being there for people is one thing; But not being there for people is something entirely different!!!!! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

When you reach a point where you seek to avoid trouble with people -even when there’s cause for trouble… You can almost be assured that with human beings for reasonably kind and thoughtful and drama free, and even more so with people who are extremely kind and thoughtful and drama free.. Your life will basically be filled with thoughtfulness and kindness and drama free!

Some people see the world as a dark place and aren’t interested in doing anything less than returning the favor!

How condescending are the roles given to certain character or featurevictors?

Don’t think too interested in reality down here -hence “the writings”.

Why didn’t they put black candidates on trial and ask if they’d ever used the word “cracker”? BS [all for show].

Isn’t it evident that mass shooters are weak or frail? Why would they act as they do if they were strong?

We should be as grateful when we receive; as we are desperate when we are lacking -with the same degree of emotion -if not more!

The way used to be, music is a reflection of the times

In a new relationship someone always farts first!

How many of us are slaves to money? Instead of slaves to GOD’S good principles.

When you are still toxic or significantly traumatized, you tend to listen more to the overwhelming feelings coming out of you in spite of [or based upon…] the consequences!

Not only am in a place now in my life where I don’t want to hurt anyone; unlike in the past, I am no longer willing to suffer the consequences of doing so! Suffering the hurt, and most of all -the losses!

In recovery we learn to take the bricks down from the wall and lay them as our new foundation.

There’s a difference between being functional and being healthy. There are many successful people in the world; but their relationships suck. The utlimate demonstration of a persons emotional,.mental and spiritual health is the quality of their relationships -Relationship with themselves, others and GOD.

When people do for each other -it’s a sign!!!!!!!! Of character, of Love, of GOD in them!

There are plenty of strong people in the world -but what the world needs more of is strong, caring people!

Just as I got it wrong with Daisy being malicious towards people around us calm when in fact she was protecting me as Amy pointed out… my grandmother got it wrong with me when she didn’t realize I was trying to protect myself from the 🌎 rather than trying to be a malicious individual! A malicious child!

God showed me.something a number of years ago, a difference between myself and a couple of people in my life. One was my uncle and one was Ana’s husband Ray. These two men have always shown their spouses the utmost respect. Never yelled at them, raised a hand to them, cussed at them -that I know of lol. So, I know that my uncle was extremely close to his mother, and had the highest respect for her. So one day I asked Ana about Ray’s relationship with his mother, and what I knew of my uncle’s relationship with his mother was the exact answer that I got from Ana in regards to Ray’s relationship with his mother! What I was onto through this whole thing was -how they treat their spouses; and their relationships with their mothers . With regards to my mother, among other things; I was afraid of her. And with regard…and with the exception of the first few months of bonding, our relationship could never progress beyond that point. With regards to my grandmother who raised me, she was a very good woman in every aspect- except she was Ill-equipped to deal with the symptoms of my trauma; which aroused her anger, and resulted in verbal and physical abuse intermittently throughout. So just as the respect and high regard for their mothers carries over to their relationships… my fear, and eventual disregard for these two women -carried over into my relationships. 😔

Go for the things that are striking to you, why piddle around? Why? Because you have in you forces in conflict which cause you to compromise what “you ultimately want and deserve”!

I TRULY BELIEVE THAT:

●GOD EXISTS

●IS GOOD

●IN A HEAVEN

●There is a devil

●That some day our souls will reunite under one GOD based on evidence and what I have read!

It’s amazing how little we know aboit one another when we ourselves are human. 

All we need to know about humanity is within ourself!

How can we as adults not related to children when we ourselves were once children ?

Why do people need to go.to acting school to learn how to act human?

There is a difference between talking too much and saying too much.

With regard to GOD, better to feel undeserving than deserving!

If it would be possible to dissect your soul, what would they find inside of it? 🤔

You can go based upon the time something was made and count forward. You know what happened at the very least. That time, or after that time, but not before it! On the other hand, not going by “date-created”; but more as a “point-of-reference”, you can go forward, or backwards from that point!

The healthier you become, the more understanding [the healthier] the abilities of the people we are surrounded by.. The more understanding we require [the more unhealthy we are], the less understanding we are apt to find in the people we attract because of our level of dysfunction and toxicity.

Alot of people can’t even see “the problem”!

Two major issues in politics:

1.Values

2. Maturity

3. Peer pressure

4. Pressure from opposing forces lacking maturity and values!

Where are we going? Where are we headed? Are we ascending, or descending? WE SHOULD WAYS HAVE OUR FOCUS ON WHERE WE”RE GOING, AND WHETHER WE ARE ASCENDING, OR DECENDING?

Some people age but never make the leap to a partner of their current age as it increases, current maturity as it evolves. 🤔 Granted there’s is evolving itself!

We have to become givers and stop being takers -IT’S THE ONLY WAY!!!!!!

I’m not sure about this one,, but I’m going to take a shot out of any ways… We can always play the game in our head with regard to where the line is placed regarding outcomes and expectations; However things get a little dice here when it comes consequences. Human beings are notorious for taking a minimalist approach to life. We do things half hours all the time. And not only do our outcomes fall short, and expectations fall short, but the human race itself is plagued with consequences as well. Think about how much of the aforementioned would go away if we gave a 100% every time!. But don’t forget that when we give our all we evolve much quicker and we learn much quicker. Which is to say that not only would we not be in the same place circumstantially but evolutionary! Now just think about that! 🤔

Earlier today I was visiting my end in the hospital. They have CNN on the television. I’m sitting here listening to the same problems that have existed for GOD only knows how long among humanity. And the thought that came to mind in that brief period was this while the topic raged on about “politics-as-usual”; Until mankind as a whole learns to be a giver rather than a taker… These problems will never get resolved!These problems will never get resolved!

I think when you try to draw sympathy out of people they resist. When you cut a lay things out there without an expectation over that manipulation… I think it’s more apt to come out naturally from people. I think the other thing is that the healthier that you become, the universe near to you that are more capable of these higher human traits or spiritual traits.

Just because it sounds great doesn’t mean it’s true!

I’m tired of going out there into the world and seeing people doing whatever they wish. We’re supposed to be the most intelligent creature on this planet! And many of us cannot even offer a simple greeting or acknowledgment to one another! If you look at the direction this country is going and you can’t help but deny that there is something at work to our own detriment.

FACEBOOK “Just because life is good for SOME -doesn’t mean it’s good for everyone! When are we gonna start helping our fellow human-beings by saying “NO” to the things we can afford because so many people around us cannot? It’s time to put a stop to the ridiculousness going on in our Country. Ridiculousness [illness -according to Native Americans] which is allowed to exist and to thrive because a certain part of the population only thinks of itself! This Country is hanging on “by a thread”; by “‘the haves, and the ‘have-nots'” who are desperately trying to keep up”. “THE system, more and more is trying to, or needs to exact as much from WE HUMAN-BEINGS as possible in order to SURVIVE and THRIVE SIMULTANEOUSLY!!!!! URGENT MESSAGE!!!!! THAT’S NO WAY TO LIVE!!!!! NOTHING IN GOD’S UNIVERSE CAN SURVIVE UNDER THESE CONDITIONS FOREVER!!!!”

STOP CYCLING!!!!!!

I jumped in my car, I get out on the road, I wonder just how many people… scratch that, I get the feeling most of these people could give a s*** about the person or people around them! Just rushing by… Worried about their own little plans and schemes – People either lack the good sense or the urgency required to make them realize the importance of relying on one another and connecting with one another! WAKE UP #37!

FACEBOOK “Having enough of what it takes… what it takes with regard to you -is very different from what it takes with regard to you and another human being you are connecting with in a [potential] relationship. I don’t think a lot of people out there have enough for the latter; but they choose to get involved anyways -Because they simply cannot fathom a life alone [or simply don’t think at’all]! BUT THAT’S “NO WAY” TO GO ABOUT STARTING A RELATIONSHIP!”

FACEBOOK “It’s ridiculous how hard some people have to work to earn a buck. And ridiculous how hard some people don’t have to work to make millions!” The 🌎 we live in! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️😔 When you think about how miserable some people feel about all this and how overjoyed and ecstatic others are about all this… Don’t you think there’s just something not quite right about this picture? That maybe, just maybe something inside is urging us TO MAKE A CHANGE? I used to say that people on the bottom want change and the people on top don’t. The fact of the matter is everybody wants change! The poor want things to change for the better – while the rich also want things to change for the better. JESUS CHRIST! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ Anybody ever here of the concepts “be grateful for what you have” and “be content in all things”?

Taking

Maturity—-+—-Values

Giving

If you are unsteady and shaky when things are going perfectly… Either something is very wrong or perhaps maybe you will fare better when things are not going perfectly? This is a big problem for dysfunctional and unworthy people!

It’s one thing to tell a person you can’t rely on the world for yourself worth and self esteem. It’s an entirely different matter telling people you have to find self worth and self esteem in spite of the world treating you like your valueless and disrespecting you. For some people that’s just not gonna happen! Some people’s limits exceed this demand while others fall short of it, and in certain situations well short of it! In order for all of us to be able to meet that go… we must stop tearing each other down!

There’s the subordinate self and there’s the conquering self. The subordinate self often can be found with family.

Man manufactures things to stay busy.

Years ago kids helped their parents as adults not the other way around.

We’re not resolving any issues in Washington, but we’re all getting paid and some of us continue to get rich while others continue to get poor.

Your problem isn’t that you said yes your problem is that you said yes with air against rather than with humidity.

Man often tackles the problem he wants to rather than the problems he needs to. For various reasons of course.

All these problems that can only be resolved by the average American citizen, and yet we have become so neutralized….

In any long term problematic situation one must ask themselves, who stands to benefit most from the way things stand? We know in the current state of affairs that satan is most definitely!

Man is notorious for taking advantage of opportunities when the grass is green; and when the grass is dry!

Some people will only be cured so long as they continue following their Doctors orders “for the remainder of their natural lives!”

JESUS couldn’t accomplish ‘“X”, but one man can huh?

Chain reaction among mankind. Like that machine full of ping-pong balls. 🏓 In am egg-carton type apparatus. You throw one in and they all pop!

We like our news-people pretty!

Oftentimes, [certain] problematic-types appear issue-free because their partner brings with them issues into the relationship. And as long as there is a problem present, the seemingly “issue-free indivual’s issue is being satisfies covertly [in disguise].

WE MUST STOP feeding off of each other!

We have to FIGHT IT! OUR TENDENCIES WITHIN! ATTACKS FROM WITHOUT!

Some people, even whole societies react counter to the standard reaction. Some reaft negatively to beauty, to goodness!

Certain societies, certain periods, man has gone with little change@ IT IS NOT A REQUIREMENT! UNLESS YOU CONTINUALLY WANT:

YOUR OWN Circumstance to continualky change!

Want to remain soooooo busy [running away; over-shooting; over-thriving]!

If you overshoot, you may fall short, but atleast you will fall further than if you had either understood or shot for ‘the mark”! Shoot for the moon and you’re bound to hit the stratosphere at the very least.

When the treatment or plan becomes a working part of one’s lifestyle, it is no longer a treatment, or a cure. No More than brushing one’s teeth or drinking 8 glasses of water a day.

The problem is that the patient, even under the best conditions is responsible for giving the therapist the information [memory, perception, limitations in truthfulness, limitations in couragessness…], and history to work with!

Man’s got to have “a reason”! Once that has been vanquished…!

If you wantto be MORE THAN HUMAN for those you care about; you MUST transcend [through effort] beyond this plane of [physical] existence!

We often fall short; because we fall short in our efforts to be connected to GOD WHO IS EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING 🤔 [can take us to a level (of performance) never before imagined]! Try it for yourself!

I told myself yesterday, “there is nothing more to be discussed”. Then… another episode! 🤷‍♂️🤔 I hide behind words!

They did it -they found a drug to fit every one -THE CELL PHONE! WITH MORE TO COME! GOD I wish everyone would throw them in the trash! So we can start acknodging each other again!

People take a step forward in therapy, and society withdrawals a step further!

Sometimes I can’t… sometimes I think I can’t think of anything to say so I talk aboutyself, how I’m feeling, what’s on my mind -issues stirring…

Companies hire people not fully qualified -but they want full pay! Bunch of shit is what it is! Especially when you sign a contract!

You can’t buy groceries with A-TV -so they’re at a disadvantage! But we the consumer act like we are

If you could see every part of your stuff laid out and dissected what would they look like and what would be inside of them?

What do people generally look for in a relationship? And what are they looking to get out of them?

●Belonging

●Value

●Importabce [Somtimes ]

●Understanding

●Stimulation

●Connection

●Companionship

●A future [with a certain certainty]

●Security

Nothing is independent of God-except sin I’m guessing? Everyone has a gift or gifts! I wonder if those are at least semu-independent of GOD? I mean when our connection with GOD begins to drift… Do those at least remain intact? Because many of us do not have certain things important or pertinent or paramount to day-to-day survival.

I tend to operate from my head more so than my instincts or nature. And it’s very draining and it’s not nearly as effective as GOD!

like to use the physical mechanisms of the world to better understand the spiritual! For example come in the physical world you need a minimum amount of things, thanks stemming from a certain type of effort? In order to bring about a certain effect? I’m guessing it’s that way in the spiritual? Of course it’s all GOD in either arena?

A person can play to their strengths – But then again, how are their weaknesses ever to become strengths? People quite often persist in working on their strengths rather than their weaknesses! They practice on there flaws as opposed to “the antithesis of their flaws”!

So what usually happens in relationships to go South? People change the formula. Two things: People stop doing what work in the 1st place [slacking off; loss of interest…]; Their expectation change [another type of “formula-change or 🤔 the other side of “the proverbial l”coin” so-to-speak]?

“STAY SHARP!” “LOOK SHARP!”

As you change the dimensions of a square to a rectangle, you lose area. Keeping the same perimeters in overall length though…. 10x10x10x10 =40 5x5x15x15 =40

*In Alcoholics Anonymous as with any problem; there’s always a conflict! When the conflict becomes large enough… This of course is subjective!

Any man can attract a woman with money! I know there’s going to be some booze from the gallery -but think about it! There should be some Cheers at this stage – Try to attract a woman solely based on self? A lot of people simply cannot do it! Because their self is lacking.

Man uses compensation; he uses substitution… In many cases anything but what hes supposed to or what is availed to him.

As a woman, when you see another man who’s better than your own partner what does it get you thinking about-if anything at all?

Who’s running things in your life-and how good a job are they I mean? I don’t think whoever’s driving mine is doing a very good job all the time!

The term integrity is so pervasive in nature that it even applies to science as well as the human character!

We show so much [more] reverence to bosses and to authority figures in comparison to GOD-now just how do you suppose that makes HIM WHO DOES EVERYTHING FOR US feel!

I wonder 🤔 if satan can give us power as well -to further his own agenda in our lives. After all, a completely powerless human-being… Human-beings without [GOD’S] POWER are pretty useless. Even with regard to their own demise! I’m guessing we humans need some degree of power, not just [self] will in order to further satans plan for our own destruction! Which brings me to this next thought two minutes later: Are we each given equal power? Unequal power? Is it an issue of “our each accepting that equal power”? And the reason some have more power than others lies in this “acceptance”? To be clear, without power, of what use is “free-will”? GOD MUST ALLOW ONE WHILE PROVIDING THE OTHER [or provide, and allow both?].

People only, or totally, appear like dirt [trash] to us; when we ourselves are looking to get from them what they are [Selfishly?Maliciously?] unwilling to give us! Since this was not JESUS position… HE did not possess “that goad”! 🤷‍♂️

If you look at a situation where people are sensitive and fearful versus people who are not sensitive and not fearful… Same situation but completely different attitudes! Also the fact that both people happen to be human! And yet what they carry inside of them makes all the difference in the world!🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️🙏🏻 And/or what they don’t carry inside of them!

Is there more strength in numbers with all Whites or all all Blacks or all Chinese or all Latino’s? Or is there more strength in numbers with Whites and Blacks and Chinese and Latinos mixed together? JUST THINK ABOUT IT!

Some things make a ton of money; Some things don’t make any money at all -is the latter of any less value? Perhaps it depends on the situation! Perhaps it depends on the particular individual or individuals before you [you are surrounded by]. With some people -money will always be “the end-all-be-all”!

There is only so much to go around -did GOD make it that way; 🤔 or did man? Listening to the song “I Hope You Dance”. In the comment section someone states “Don’t fear the mountains ahead; Go for your dreams”. Well, just make sure your dreams are not those shared by too many other people; because there is only so much to go around and then it becomes a competition!

Some people share things to get a result. I mean there is communicating with the people around us in order to get a result. And then there’s sharing and communicating with others around us simply to stand our ground or to say our peace [irrespective of “external outcomes”]. Some people have no interest in the latter! And some people have no interest in the former!

You produce enough material; and something’s bound to resonate -become a hit!

How many healthy people do you think exist out there? The question deals with mistrust. There are two kinds of people out there in the world: The kind who would seek to destroy everything that is generally considered near and dear to most of us; And the kind who don’t! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “A person would have to be “crazy” not to want what some people have “to offer”! And some are just that!🤷‍♀️🤔🤷‍♂️

The town I LIVE IN is a humbling place; filled with people who refuse to be humbled! When you’re in turn; leads to a town filled with angry people! Many things require at least 2 elements! Many things are comprised of many elements! But usually the things that are comprised of only one thing [or element] -tend to be pure [from GOD above]!

… And the other side of that coin is the human imperfection we encounter on a day-to-day basis amongst one another that never seems to relent. Never seems to improve!

Apologizing too little is a sign of what? Apologizing too much is a sign of what?

FACEBOOK “When we complain -it’s because something is bigger than us! Think about it 🤔 -why do we only complain about “select things”; why not everything? (Because certain things we’re able to “sluff-off” right? We’re bigger than it! We’re bigger than that -right? Isn’t that the saying?”

The more we can make bigger things small throughout our lives… Isn’t that what bodybuilders do through sweat and effort and using their minds and using their minds over their bodies?

“Shrink it down”. Scratch that -[YOU] BECOME BIGGER!

When we stand up for ourselves 🤔 we are asserting an “injustice” has been done. Now unless you are master in this area… the jury is still out as to whether or not an injustice has been done. Moving forward, 🤔 the person, persons, or agency we are whose treatment of us, or conduct we are disputing will either say “oh my goodness, I didn’t realize…” 🤷‍♂️ Or, they will be too embarrassed, even though they knew what they were doing, and pretend they didn’t know, or 🤔 make up some excuses. Or, 🤔 they know exactly what they are doing, what it is they are trying to get out of it -and will refuse to relent. This is perhaps the biggest “problem-causing-symptom” of man’s existence! Where each of us draws “the proverbial “line-in-the-sand”; and when one persons line crosses over into another’s. And when we say for example, “some people are rely F’d up” what we are actually saying is that “just where they are drawing their lines [with regard to…], is all fucked up”. People cannot cause trouble for one another, the planet… without crossing over into someone else’s line, boundary, space [on whatever plane that happens to be: spiritual; physical; emotional; mental]… 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “There’s only so much to go around; so we know somebodies got to lose! Do we really want to keep playing this game?”

FACEBOOK “Amazing how many of us play games with the problem; and the “symptom(s)-of-the-problem”. To the extent many don’t know the difference!” And why do we do so? Because we’re either constantly chasing after something, or; 🤔 constantly avoiding something -that’s why!

Never laugh longer than your girlfriend.

Some people don’t notice subtle changes -and man uses this to his advantage!

FACEBOOK “We only have 2 options: Trust in GOD, or, go our own way; but you might want to keep in mind -it’s HIS Universe!”

The best thing; and the worst thing GOD ever gave man was -a free will!

LORD do not give us easier lives, but give us greater strength to deal with life!

Why can’t our family support one another -like other families do! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ My Aunt & Uncle set the tone -that’s why!

☆☆☆☆☆You always screw up [vacillate (vascilate m/s)] when trying to learn something new. Don’t get discouraged!

FACEBOOK “What do you rate your relationships at at this moment? One to a 100? What was it in the beginning (100? -of course it was; many people don’t stick around for “mediocrity” (by-product of an “attitude-of-arrogance and entitlement”)? In the majority of cases [in this country] that number drops (overtime -some not low enough to reach expulsion(?); but unhappiness, and disillusionment are quite common occurrences)! Anybody care to refute this statement? Humans are notorious for changing their attitude [and hence their behavior] once they feel “confident” about something! Or have been “satiated*””!

*Had to look up to be sure after-the-fact. 🤔 Will change if wrong selection of term was used. BRB “Nope, it’s correct!” 😁

FACEBOOK “Why is it that when something gets written into law [when we exercise our power in a vote -we essentially give our power over to another; and once we’ve done that, it can be very difficult to reverse] and is later found to be damaging -it is so hard to get rid of? Why is it when something [new] is introduced into our society, that makes people alot of money, and is later found to have a detrimental impact, is so hard to get rid of? People are opportunists; and life for many is perceived as “taking the good with the bad”! This is true with regard to GOD and HIS plan (“change-of-plan” after man took “a left-turn in the GARDEN OF EDEN”); which [NONETHELESS]: is; always has been; always will be; ULTIMATE GOOD [LEAD US TO SALVATION -IF WE STICK WITH IT]! When man plots a course on his own, he almost invariably ends up “in troubled-waters!” And finally, along with being an opportunist, man is a sadist and a masochist (just ask many of our children openly, honestly -about certain “childhood-experiences” 🤔)!” VOTING AND SPENDING MONEY [giving our monies to someone else]; I don’t think most people really understand “the gravity” [the science] of it all!

FACEBOOK “That’s often people’s problem… “we’re on the right track; 🤔 but then we start to think about it; we start to think about what it costs us!” GOD’S plan always costs! But anything in life does too! But the latter only leads us upwards! Understand?” 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

FACEBOOK “We help each other with satan’s plan! We screw each other over; then we no longer want to have anything to do with each other; this leads to separation and alienation; which in-turn leads to “a weakening” of us both as a species; as well as opening us up individually for attack; for vulnerabilities to suggestion and to temptation! But man is a slow learner; as well as his own worst enemy! ARE WE LEARNING YET?”

How do we really feel about ourselves 🤔 and others?????

FACEBOOK “If money is power; then why are so many of us so willing (so eager) to give it away (give?)*? Because certain people in our society understand this! Two ways we rise above one another : 1) Make ourselves more (increase our own lot); 2) Make you less (deplete yours)! IT’S A SCIENCE! MANY MEN SEE THEMSELVES AS SCIENTISTS (TRY TO PLAY SCIENTISTS)!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

*If we could get something without giving our money away we would -trust me (the majority of this new, unthinking generation** [who ironically enough 🤔 -are also HIGHLY UNTRUSTING])! Man tries it all the time in varying ways and degrees! Either for free or as close to it as possible! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

**I said it some 25 years ago “if we don’t start protecting our children; they’re gonna start protecting themselves -and we’re not gonna like the result!”

Everything has a beginning! So where for example did the women’s movement 1st begin [France]? Where for example did the hippie and rebellion movement of the sixties begin? Probably in the forties or fifties to be honest!

FACEBOOK “Do you understand what’s going on here? What the purpose of these writings is? It’s to turn man back around; to get him back on the right track; to help him recognize the fallacy behind his own reasoning; and satan’s deceit! There is no such thing as getting something for less [or nothing] -without being penalized! Initially everything was handed unto man. After man chose satan [over GOD], the laws changed! Everything now has a precise cost, cause-and-effect! That is if you do it according to how GOD’S laws currently work! If you try to “fool around with that”; you ultimately end up paying more; getting less; or both!”

Power begets power! I suspect Facebook was initially designed to be a good and benign idea. Whenever GOD plants an idea in the mind of a man -it’s always for a good purpose. But man as he so often does -has to start tinkering with things!

FACEBOOK “Why do certain things bother me -and not you? Why do you have certain flaws that I don’t -and vice versa? Two points here: Why can’t we all have no flaws; since our fellow man -seems to be able to do without ours; It seems to me that man has more of a need to have certain flaws rather than be relegated to it “without say so”. I mean honestly; explain to me how one man can do without a certain flaw and another man cannot? Apparently it’s not a requirement or a need right? Then it must be a choice! And a bonus: it seems to me man has to have some flaws [vices] to keep from going crazy; winding up “mental” as a result of being continually subject to “this (rather brutal) reality we call “life””! I think it’s a fair argument -that is… 🤔 when one chooses to live live apart from GOD; apart from HIS LAWS!” 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Some people will actually put up an argument -even though they’re wrong! So it only stands to reason… and I know this for a fact through observing certain individuals, including myself -some people will not bother to put up an argument even though what they are being accused of is wrong! Some people will not put up a fight even though they know they are right! My cousin used to say “right makes might”! “White is might; but Brown takes the Crown!”

It’s not that some people are necessarily weak; it’s just that they’re more sensitive! It’s not that some people are necessarily strong; it’s just that they’re more insensitive!

Do you know the right amount of exercise for you to stay exactly where you’re at?

Sometimes giving more while receiving less in return…. If we are patient in any given endeavor…. We actually end up receiving more in the form of something else! Something of even greater value and an even greater measure! That I think is one of the basic tenements of Christian philosophy!

Man’s thoughts stem primarily from 2 sources -GOD and satan! Any thoughts or comments?

Oftentimes, people will not do the right thing unless they’re forced to do it. That’s why we have so many laws because we have a society that lacks the highest moral fiber! In fact, you could argue that the lower the moral fiber, the higher the number of laws we require in our country! An inversely proportional or correlatively proportional relationship! I think the argument could be made for either signed Maggie!

Strength versus insensitivity! Jesus was sensitive but also strong! Many of us lack that strength so we default to insensitivity! Weakness versus sensitivity! Many of us are not weak but sensitive!

How many circumstances or situations in life are you bigger than? How many circumstances or situations in life are you smaller than? Man is either a victim of this dwelling place or he is the ruler of it! Most of us are a mixture! Uh -that would include me in the latter -most grouping! 😉

You know what the difference is largely between a man who is a slave to his environment” and a man who is the master of it -fear, or lack thereof! I think there’s another word or an additional word -but I suppose that will suffice for now! Confidence? Strength? Ability? Experience?

GOD will make it up to us. One thing HE doesn’t want is for us to feel unloved -or to be unloved!

When someone is doing their part in our circle, and another person is not… it’s unfair to ask the person that’s already doing their part to do more! To do more in order to compensate us!

You will often hear the question, “why do bad things happen to good people?” But you never hear, “why don’t bad things happen to bad people?”

How broad is your emotional and spiritual foundation? Just big enough for your own selfish plans and schemes? Did it ever occur to you to broaden it enough to include life and GOD’S plan of growth for you?

Much of my attitude throughout life has been characterized like this -I went through h*** in my childhood so why should I have to put up with the same things in adulthood that other people have to put up with who had a wonderful childhood? Why can’t it equal out? Or is it equaling out? I don’t know what people’s lives are like that have great lives growing up as children. 🤷‍♂️

If we fail to see the things GOD is doing for us in the face of life’s struggles, then we’re likely to run around with an attitude of feeling cheated. Because life MINUS GOD… feels extremely unfair! Whether it is or not [whether we deserve what we get; whether there’s a precise balance at work between… “Karma” as they say?]… is up for debate 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ But if we refuse to acknowledge GOD’S existence altogether… Or fail to recognize the balance between the harshness of life and HIS love for us in the form of… In the form of various…

We may not be able to do anything about the people in the world who don’t love us, but with regards to GOD AND HIS INFINITE, ALWAYS PRESENT LOVE -LUCKILY WE DON’T HAVE TO!!!!!!

Not all people we encounter who display fear, or judgementalness [the things that are often “the root of undesirable” attitudes and behaviors] are bad people!

Too many people in this country think money is the solution to all their problems! All those people hoping to win the lottery…. many of which want the much needed power (money brings) given to them! Rather than, the greatest power of all we must work to reconnect with [not work for because GOD readily avails this to us along with all our needs -because HE is a good GOD] -power our self-will has, in many cases, cuts us off from!

Sometimes 🤔 through the power of choice, or will, we have to broaden our foundation [in the moment]; to accommodate things in life -often unexpected! Or perhaps it is best to work on simply having THE BROADEST POSSIBLE FOUNDATION -FROM THIS DAY FORTH! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Would you rather receive from your family for helping them -OR FROM GOD?

If you were closed to certain people at a certain point in life, don’t expect them to automatically [readily] “be open to you” simply because you are now open. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

People who have hurt their partner, or anyone for that matter, often [by default, or to defend their ego] believe it is enough to simply cease their [repeated?] behavior(s) of the past [sweep the past under the rug]. I have even had people who have hurt me tell me “just let it go, it’s in the past” with having never having made reparations or restitution of any kind. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

When we are concerned about what other people are doing, we take away from our own focus and energy to do everything in our own power to contribute to that relationship! Just keep pouring it on on your end! Don’t worry about the rest!

You get what you fight for -sometimes! How come the blacks are moving ahead -but not the Latinos or the Orientals? What do we have to be proud of in this country? If you think about it, why the America didn’t give blacks anything, they had to fight for everything! What do we have to be proud of in this country? If you think about it, white- America didn’t give blacks anything, they had to fight for everything!

On migrants complaining about Mexicans coming over the border.Saw this in a movie baby. MEXICAN SAYS TO IRISHMAN “And what, your parents were Native American laughing my a** off?

How come you can’t taste anything when it’s too hot or too cold?

I had an Uncle that used to call me how come because I was always asking “how come”.

Should have seen it coming years ago-tickets for playoff games in sports going through the roof!

People don’t give much thought to aging when they’re young -even though they should! I mean their particular lifestyle that could affect their aging adversely.

It’s not that God can’t whip up a million dollars for you. Even God likes a challenge! It’s trying to get the stingiest of stingy to pride from theioffenders in doing some charitable act for another human being and edifying their soul and glorifying GOD HIMSELF!

Alot of relationships come down to how far you can go!

Not sure about this one? Nothing wrong with braggin’ -as long as you’re braggin’ on GOD!

I’m looking for exceptional [in myself]; In perhaps the 2nd hardest area humanity can face -human relationships! Unfortunately for me [for my family who needs me*], it appears I’m quite typical. Perhaps not even that! Michael Jordan once alluded to the philosophy that success comes through continual failure! I’m wondering though -how much complaining he did through the process LMAO

*My uncle made a comment one day “Sissy is the only one who has never asked us for anything”. I sensed in that comment something of a disappointment with the rest of us. Is perhaps even an annoyance in some cases. I didn’t think much beyond that. But in my own annoyance, the thought that comes to mind is this “Yeah, but how many times have she been down here to take you to the doctor?” I guess we all have our own [funny] ideas about what’s important! What defines character. With my Uncle, and I’ll throw in my aunt as well… clearly it’s not asking anything of them -or as little as possible [helping them, which they expect us to -is secondary]. Is it self-serving disguised as [what they deem meritorious] merit! What is really at the heart of that comment? Do they admire their daughter because she is self-sufficient. Or are they simply relieved that at least one of their kids -isn’t bothering them, burdening them? Not burdening someone is one thing! Helping to relieve their burden is something entirely different! One has accomplished the former; while another has accomplished the latter!

Should we give our partners everything they want? Should we give the people around us everything they want? Ideally, that’s what many people want (more-and-more these days; throughout history; throughout humanity and not just in these United States primarily?]! As I commented to Dale 3 years ago, “America is not a country in whom “character-building” is the top priority! HE JUST QUIPPED[?] AND SORTA CHUCKLED!

As you get older, you the child should be taking your parents out to dinner -and asking them what they need.

To some people a relationship is about you taking care of your business; and the people around you taking care of theirs. I was raised by my grandmother that the heart of a relationship is -what people do for one another!

The United States went from being the number one example of what a country should and could be -to what????

Having discussed this at length with my girlfriend… We had come to the conclusion that well it is important to look out for ourselves and protect ourselves from the world… We don’t want to venture into the “look out for number one” mentality either!

Some of the stuff people are coming up with and making millions off of is utterly ridiculous! A blade scraper for a blender? That doesn’t even look half as efficient as a plain old “spatula” for 1.99.

Learn to be efficient. Don’t erase all the letters on a misspelled word just the ones that you’re not going to use.

Some people feel they do enough for their partner and their partner has no right to ask for anything more. Some people are always willing to grow -and expand the horizons of their relationship and their own character! To listen to the more reasonable wants and needs of their own partner!

We don’t need new ideas -we need better one’s!

Having trouble “SUFFERING IN SILENCE” -well do the best you can; GOD always appreciates a sincere effort!

How we respond to life -IS EVERYTHING! How we respond in life -IS EVERYTHING!

Just as GOD mercifully provides shock to animals being devoured… HE MERCIFULLY provides me with a veneer of forgetfulness with regard to the pain that exists among many of these awarenesses!

On burdening others in our relationships. Some burdens bring us closer together and some burdens bring separation. But there’s an added dimension in all this – Some burdens which bring separation -should in fact bring us closer together [conversely…]. 😏🤔🤷‍♂️ But that’s humanity for you!

Never stop growing -and you will be the greatest beneficiary of all!

There is no higher return on your investment than in spiritual matters!

Some people may not think a smile or a glimmer of… some people may not think a smile on a face or a glimmer of hope on a tarnished spirit is much of a return for the things they have done, for the time they have taken with another human being… but it means everything to them probably -and to GOD as well! THE FORGOTTEN ONE’S? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Man might have to [re]think more about the things he chooses to invest in! The things he seeks the returns on; as well as thereturns themselves he seeks! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

“Well at least I’m seeing progress -for the longest time it didn’t feel like it; or look like it!”

If you look at many of these writings they will not make sense because the microphone didn’t do its job! Which is precisely what satan wants! I’m terrible at proof reading and re reading and editing so there you have an!

If you can help it calm or don’t do anything in somebody’s car like trying to tell them how to keep the temperature or adjust the seat when you know somebody else sits in it. Try to remain as small as possible in as many situations as possible!

I think a lot of us are confused? LoL

I was told by my cousin many years ago that a lot of people think the lower you set the AC in your car the less gas it uses-falls !

We all have a limit! Pushing beyond it takes time, effort, patience with ourselves! 🤔 and KNOW-HOW?

The more we resist or postpone] “those two vital components required to pull us “back from the brink” [an indication of just how “disdainful” these things concepts are to we human-beings], the more we will be required of us as we as a species continues to plummet downward!

Some things should not be “about the money” -like medicine!! ke medicine! But man, recognizing the urgency of this field [along with the field of law (these are vasic needs, not luxuries)] -has decided to exploit that urgency! Along with others they have convinced [certain] people to add to “that list” which really are of no urgency whatsoever when you really think about it! 🤔

Gloves-another barrier [we see this in medicine -no more HUMAN-TOUCH??] Rubbers -another barrier? I had enough emotional one’s; I wasn’t about to voluntarily add anymore! The most capable of the human abilities is generally physical! Most people are capable [culpable] of engaging jn a physical relationship [sexual] but as you climb the ladder [the numbers begin to drop-off*].

*The higher we humans seek to climb; the more the numbers begin to dwindle -why? Olympic level performance for example!

Imagine an Olympic athlete on 4 hours of sleep; or eating donuts and coffee; or training an hour a day?

Even GOD wants somethiing!

Stay focused on “the mission”.

If you could only join “the things” going on at opposite ends of “the spectrum” that have as a common denominator ‘X’ you would be sooooo angry! Angry at what people are trying to get away with or to get around GOD’S sense of justice, what’s best for ourselves, what’s best for each other if only we would be willing to concur [for the benefit of our kind as a whole]. This oweson gets this much for only doing this much… this person gets away with “y” over here, while this person doesn’t get away with “Y”. Or, and I really love this, sometimes people don’t get away with “x” over here, but other people get away with “Y” over there [unbeknownst -in another city or country]! Something far less people are held accountable for while something far worse others are not! Humanity is all over the place with regards to consistency, and fairness versus preferential treatment versus awareness versus common-sense versus scruples! Bottom line, we don’t know what we’re doing; and even when we do, we often prefer to do it our way -rather than the right way!

Man wants to leave His mark; in order to do yhis; he must change something; bring his own idea[s] to the fore. Sometimes he steals ideas from others [and applies them where they are unknown to others elsewhere]. Sometimes, if he is in a position [of power to do so], he makes changes his predecesors put in place -Even though those changes are to be proven detrimental! Even though those changes are clearly inferior!

Sanity is everything -what is a person God if they don’t have their sanity?

I think a lot of poor, uneducated people are scared! I also think a lot of rich, educated people are as well!

JESUS wouldn’t have said anything! How many times have I’ve done things that Jesus would have never done? How many hundreds or thousands of times? Think about that!

I should use myself more as the example rather than coming across as looking down on humanity! GOD knows I am a very good representative of humanity’s weaknesses and issues!

When somebody offers from a selection, never take the best for yourself! Besides, they may be thinking…

Man has nothing else better to do: Eventually somebody will design something TO COUNT BAGS AT THE GRICERY STORE TO MAKE SURE CONSUMERS DONT TAKE MORE THAN ONE @ A DIME A PIECE. RIGHT NOW THEY ARE UNCHECKED! WHAT THAT COSTS MONEY IN THIS SOCIETY EVER GKES UNCHECKED -TELL ME!!!!!

Now that “faking” has become so technologically feasible…-what can we believe?

Companies don’t pay for things, customers do!!!! Including screw-ups! Renting a lavish building…. lighting… Must be nice to have a business that the public is required to “bail-out” if something goes wrong. i.e. chickens, beef, banks…

People are adaptable, and sometimes that is a good thing, sometimes not!

There’s far too many things in the world that require our attention to be thinking, worrying so much about ourselves! 🤔

THE NEWS: We go from possible aliens in lake Huron and South Carolina being shot down, to the financial reports of the day lol We’ve been hearing these things for so long and not even news anymore!

Some people “offer” only “after they have recieved”!

Right and wrong aside come Russia can’t knock out a little country like the Ukraine? Makes you wonder? War means money… The longer it drags out the more money! Just like the NBA finals going 7 instead of 4!?

Don’t you just hate it when something somebody does works the s*** outta you and then somebody else comes along and says oh that’s not a big deal lol Does it make you feel small question make you feel like wanting to rise above it? Rise above the thing that wrote to I mean? Including the earthquake brought about by what the person commented on. LoL

Some people are meticulous about their own needs but oblivious about others! What I mean to say is their interest is cued completely one way!

That’s just what we need, muscles without working! Losing weight without working!

Limitations and Challenges/Limitations vs Challenges! It seems to me that life is always filled with having to give things up; make way for what other people want or need! But not everyone is interested in playing by those rules when it’s their turn to sacrifice! Just how small of a space in a room full of people or even one, are you willing or able to occupy based upon reasonable or unreasonable circumstances? Well that’s a very good question! Sometimes you have 2 people in the room who need a lot of room. Sometimes you have 2 people in a room you don’t care about how much room the other person requires. Sometimes you have 2 people in the room who don’t need a lot of room. Sometimes you have 2 people who care very much how much room the other person requires. Sometimes it’s 1 person 1 way and another person the other way -usually! Relationships don’t last when they involve 2 people unwilling to budge! Usually there’s at least one person who is willing to budge! I guess the only time I get to think entirely of myself is when I’m with myself!*

*What percentage of people, what percent of the time do you suppose are trying to get around other people and what they want so they can get what they want? Everybody in this country is being raised to get; 🤔 because America has become “the gettin’ place”! 🔐 and 🔑! A nation filled with things to get; only works with a nation filled with people bred to get! Only stands to reason you need a nation full of people “materialistic enough” to buy it all!

If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough!

We all have to make a choice; and in doing so choose aside!

Man has issues with delayed consequences and takes issue with delayed gratification.

In order for something like this to work they have to… A company comes in on a major buying and selling website and offers one year insurance for 44.99. Of course the only way this works is if the main website company doesn’t offer to begin with which some might argue they should. They delete something so that somebody can come in and exploit it. Possibly intentionally?

Company’s sure seized the opportunity during covid to negate a long standing…. For consumers. Bedding companies, underwear and so forth; no one wants to take returns. That is a huge advantage for the companies; and a huge disadvantage for consumers. And this argument about people not wanting to buy beds that someone with covered men have slept in his b*******. I’ll buy one. You just spray it down with disinfectant. I mean how many people are sleeping directly on a mattress come on? As far as the hygiene goes, it’s no different than it’s been throughout the history of business! Nonsense! “Man “the exploiter”!

“Harmful” is ‘the word’ you want to avoid in your relationships!

Take a year, atleast 6 months off from your relationships, and see if you still feel “the same” or “stronger” -the results my surprise you!

“Do your best; and see where it goes!” 🤷‍♀️❤🤷‍♂️

One of the earliest writings that came to me was that any relationship can only go as long as it has acceptance as its foundation. I’m changing the wording a little here. Let me try it in the original form: A relationship when acceptance ends… Nope, not it either. Two people set out on a road together; but once they reach a fork in that road that cannot be overcome… They can even travel two roads, as long as they do not venture too far from each other. Some relationships however, 🤔 seem to be able to survive just about anything. But anyways; Relationships tend to end when one or both people encounter something along the way that can no longer be tolerated or accepted. It seems to me that the odds are against long term relationships because as time goes on, as a relationship evolves; and encounters new and different territory… it only stands to reason that sooner or later you’re going to run into something that is unacceptable to you, or the other person. When this happens, at the relationship more-often-than-not ends! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Sometimes naming something diminishes its meaning. Diminishes our understanding of it. Giving ourselves a name for what we are for example!

Life often seems just a little bit ahead of us! A little more than we are willing or able to bare. A little more than we are able to deal with based upon where we are @@ that given moment in our lives!

Think of a sphere or the Solar System with the orbit of the planets around the sun.

●There are the things you started out knowing

● There are the things you didn’t know but eventually learned

Scratch that!

● There are the things we can do from the start -seemingly

● There are the things we cannot do, but eventually we learn to do them

● And then there are those things we want to do that will forever remain beyond our abilities!

● And finally, those things which will forever remain beyond our willingness

When your feelings about a relationship begin to change, is it because of you or is it because of them? I don’t think enough people know the difference. I don’t think enough people really give significant thought to this. I think most of the time we think it’s the other person. But it’s almost always about the way WE feel! We stop feeling a certain way for either reason and it’s time to move on.

FACEBOOK “Some people care: as long as it doesn’t cost them anything!”

You search long enough, you’ll find some truth’s!

Put together a company that competes with another bigger company, and they’ll buy you out for millions -and you retire. AMERICAN WAY BABY! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

A resentment is a conscious or subconscious attempt to continue to punish someone who is no longer guilty of an offense!

About half the people in this country running around p***** off – are ungrateful!

Many people wonder why God doesn’t let them win the lottery. The answer to that is that most of the people playing it don’t really need it. And the other part of that answer is that it would do more harm than good. But here’s a little known fact that many people refuse to recognize…. God will not Grant us something however much good it has with it-if it is going to do one single bit of harm however small!

Have you done anything wrong in your relationship? Then what are you afraid of?

I always ask myself have you heard anyone? Have you had any intentions to harm another human being whether you have actually done it or not -whether you were successful in acting out…‽ Then you have nothing to worry about or to feel ungrateful for!

There are different reasons for saying things about people that sound critical or judgmental. Not all of them are in fact based upon being critical or judgmental. Or perhaps it is safer to say that they are critical but not judgmental. Clint Walker in his Western movies was not a man to go around judging people but he could be critical of their behavior. What would a Western be without some critique of one’s fellow man lol

“Everything has to go thru so much process; takes forever to get anything done!” AUNT NIN

The Republicans and Democrats do nothing but tear each other down! Which wouldn’t be so bad if it was sincere, if not valid. But, you switch places, and their attitudes completely do “an about face”!

When GOD introduces a miracle man wants to tear it to shreds to determine some other reason!

90% is all one can expect from their partner!

Trying to get a female in to “THE PRESIDENCY” for what????? Tell me; for what????

When you feel jealous of others good-fortune, DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF -IT’S AN INDICATION YOU NEED THAT!

Think about all this power being used to generate money and what it could do to generate God’s principles and message!

With the advent of social media and global reporting, now maybe the people in this country can begin to recognize just how fortunate we really are!

Even if you accept a token of gratitude from others, God under certain circumstances will give you HIS blessing nonetheless!

We want guns out of the hands of [disturbed] people; 🤔 but what about the mental illness that’s left? That’s OK as long as they don’t have a gun!

So many different people creating so many different languages has to be a sign of God! It would take a genius to do something like that! A particular kind of genius. How could there be one in every country?

Alot of people get animals when they’re puppies -and forget about then when the grow up -AUNT NIN

There are all kinds of geniuses -but not necessarily viewed [or appreciated] equally by the public!0

Don’t just do the right thing; do the kind thing! 👍🏻

Maybe there’s nothing wrong, maybe you’re just getting out of your groove and your element into a new and exciting way of life and doing things! Sometimes when we do things in a new and better way, it can feel very uncomfortable-almost as if we’re doing something wrong!

You can use a compliment for example to build-up your ego or your esteem-worth.

Hyperactive body… it only stands to reason there’s such a thing as a hyperactive brain!

Every dynamic has 2 sides to it. For example, there are a lot of people with issues running around in our society today. A lot of people like that idea because for one thing it makes the medical community a lot of money. The other thing is that it weakens the society and makes it vulnerable. But the flip side of it is that a certain number of people are creating problems for society. In some cases they pick up a gun and do mass shootings among other things. But while certain people are benefiting from this, others are suffering! This begs the question, is a why these things are not changing?But the one side of the population is suffering as a result? Because another side, a more powerful side is Ben a fitting? We want to take the guns out of these sick people’s hands, but we don’t wanna make them better because a certain part of the population would then lose money! We simply have to put a stop to this insanity!

The way to cover all your bases and life is to be grateful for everything GOD gives you and grateful for everything GOD doesn’t give you! Why? BECAUSE HE KNOWS!!!

Can you look into the heart of another man? Can you see the future? GOD CAN!!! So why wouldn’t you rely on HIM! You rely on the camera at 2000′ of depth in the ocean!

Old news! I think this came to me 25 years ago along with about 75% of the current writings. There was such an influx early on. Between 90/91 [can’t seem to remember] -1999]. Realistically, they have been coming steadily for 32 years to date. And today is the day after Valentine’s Day 2023. My best guess is around August of 1991; but it could have been August 1990. So, 🤔 here we are once again. Nowadays, man seems more and more content in this country to get what he can out of his fellow human-being! Get what he can out of his fellow human being rather than create a bond of brotherhood between himself and those around him! You can’t have it both ways! This, I am very sure of -about 25 years ago what came to me was that if we do not take care of our children; they are going to start taking care of themselves -and the previous generation is not gonna like one bit what they are seeing, let alone getting for having let down your children; and your children’s children! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ You want to be a selfish generation, then suffer for it; you want to believe the lies the government and other authorities are telling you because it’s beneficial to them, and in some cases, convenient for you, then suffer for it; and watch your children (and their children) suffer as well! *When we act stingy with one another it creates an environment of fear and resentment. This atmosphere becomes rampant! Remember the movie it’s a wonderful life? Remember the 2 possible futures? The 2 possible futures based on a man’s decision to act one way or another?

People either want things, accept things, or reject things! There’s really nothing else! [Most] People are pretty set regarding this! People either accept things [either out of courtesy (but not interested at all), or didn’t think about it before)]; go after things they (think) they really want; or reject things. Man is notorious for getting confused between what he wants and what he needs. Man is notorious for getting confused about what he needs and what he thinks he needs! Man, not only manipulates others, he manipulates himself (and not necessarily in that order)! Looking at the world and history, man is clearly confused about what he wants, needs, and should reject! Mankind sort of lives between GOD’S perfect plan and satan’s… He doesn’t want perfection; but he doesn’t want to spend an eternity damned either!

If you want to know the future; look at the past! A wise man once told me -some 20 year ago?

You don’t have to have an expectation of something, GOD has endowed every man with the (inalienable) right to meet his own needs; or have his own needs met!

Just like some material things don’t fit and it’s no reflection on better or worse.. It’s the same thing with human relationships!

One major key to relationships is don’t plant a seed of resentment or hurt in them if you can possibly avoid your! Just one by itself could lead to a minor mood or retaliation issue-thus setting off a pattern or chain reaction between the 2 of you that builds!

All-too-often, it comes down to the way we feel not what is right!

Which is better? To be better than someone in the present? Better than someone in the future?

Is it better to make all your mistakes in the beginning of life when you have nothing to lose -rather than at the end of life when you accrue so much and stand to lose it?

It’s better to be a sinner in the beginning and a Saint in the end that way you can go to Heaven. Some people start out being saints and then in the being centers..

So if we cannot come to a resolution, then our only recourse, our only two options are violence or acceptance

Candy bar stolen escalation two philosophies 🤔 let it go; the other, Accountability at all costs!

Practice letting things go!

Unless it’s a threat to society we have to pay for our own Justice! Is that right the legal system does not pay for individual. Even though all of our taxes pay for all avenues were areas of the legal system.

You have to remember that the cop or the judge don’t know who’s lying and who’s telling the truth even though you do. And the people who don’t know what happened are the ones with the power instead of you who do know what happens.

I have a lot to learn! Scratch that-I have a lot to apply!

The human approach versus the spiritual approach:

Calm down or I understand how you’re feeling

Listening and saying nothing and letting them bent. Saying I can’t even begin to understand how you are feeling. Or, I don’t blame you for being upset I would feel exactly the same way! See the difference between a human approach and a spiritual principled approach? Human principles based on fear and the need to control versus spiritual principles of acceptance end of empathy and comforting. Comforting versus appeasing. Allowing a person freedom versus manipulating them. Human beings love their individuality. Now tell me something, is that why there is such a wide or broad spectrum of knowledge in the professional field in dealing with various situations instead of a set standard? I understand that there are standards in many professional settings but why is it that so many human beings view from that standard and basically have their own individual approach ? Why is it with regard to the above situation when someone is angry that we have so many so called professionals with so many different approaches other than the one that is the standard in that organization! And the answer to that is that human beings love their individuality! Their freedom to express and act individually! There’s at least a basic standard on child rearing at this point in history I believe And how close are we as individual parents in this country to following that standard than we were a 1000 years ago? When there wasn’t even a standard! Again, people love their individuality! Even if it’s wrong or damaging to the most sacred thing we hold dear-our children and our future! People spend thousands of dollars on an education but how much do we spend on being educated on how to raise our children properly?

More and more nowadays people are out for all they can get from their fellow human being; Rather than show an interest in the brotherhood of their fellow human being. You can’t have a both ways! When we are stingy and greedy we bring fear and resentment and separation between one another. Whereas when we are giving and compassionate, we bring a sense of relief, trust, and wanting to draw closer to one another! R&M 👫👫

Remember I was telling you about the ways in which state and tries to dupe mankind? And how ignorant and skewed our thinking is? OK – Man has been asking the question for centuries as to whether or not there is an intelligence in the universe, and intelligence behind it all! t’s the stupidest question one could ever ask if you think about it. What is the universe if not intelligence? The smartest people throughout history are just scratching the surface running their brains at maximum RPM just to try and figure out the simplest of things in our universe! Anyone care to rethink that question!

IT’S GOOD to remain on your toes, maintain “that slight nervousness” about you with regard to your relationship throughout the entirety of IT’S existence!

Most people cannot compart mentalize their feelings. Most people’s hearts do not work that way. The solution of life tends to form their emotional self which they in turn bring with them in their approach to life more or less. I mean there’s some of that but for the most part people are emotionally sloppy I guess.

What if we choose not to react to not being spitually sound? Is that even possible?

People who are struggling in life and not on medication must be even more vigilant about their spiritual upkeep.. I don’t do well with that.

Given what people are dealing with, given the structure of modern-day American society… More and more people feel the need to medicate! That should tell us something! But try telling that to the drug dealers and alcohol companies and prescription growth drug companies.. And everybody selling anything to anyone in need of some relief.

It’s a terrible thing to go through life not feeling good enough. But how many of us contribute to that individual’s feelings? As long as there are so called “cliques”, there will be people who feel “unwanted”. Where is the chasm between the norms of society and spiritual principles? If you dissect the norms of humanity, I think you will find them wanting and lacking! Grounded in ignorance and ofselfish motives! And they used to tell me in counseling that social norms…! I was told in counseling, I must try and aspire to reach that level? Not a very lofty goal in my estimation -but a start.

When you have a society that basically gives in to man’s unbridled cell… But we are saying now we’re continually new things need to be furnished in order to continue to get money from the masses… It’s a never ending cycle! Any one want to challenge that! Man is also fast running away from himself and looking to discover what’s out there in the universe! You can only go in 2 directions: Inward and outward! The key to life is to go inward 1st. I cannot even believe with my own 2 eyes when I am seeing! When you are able to sit back and see society and all its sickness… you have not only a rarerror insight but also a powerful one! So many people in this country living for the next something-but not from GOD, but from man! IT’S A SICKNESS!

How many negative encounters in society with human beings does the typical person have to have before they begin to see humanity as a whole as a threat? Remember what I said earlier about human beings lacking the ability to comport mentalize. How many times does a woman have to be hurt by one man or how many men does a woman have to be hurt by before she begins to see all men as a threat? Interesting question Don’t you think? Don’t you think?

Is there anything wrong with doing things for people -and only wanting love and return?

My family works like this don’t ask us for anything we don’t ask you for anything. But now that my aunt and Uncle are elderly and needs something guess what -I’m doing something for them but they have the same attitude as before.I think my aunt and Uncle also have years of penta presentment Towards me, towards my part of the family, towards humanity and general!

☆☆☆☆☆I have 2 things going against me: both parents who were attics and alcoholics and died in their disease; And I’m not on any medication; Only spiritual medication should I choose to partake of it!

If you have to vent to your partner sometimes it’s best to keep these people you’re talking about anonymous so that if by chance they meet there’s no hard feelings. No pre judgment. No judgment at all actually. I made this mistake month my former girlfriend. About my family no less perit’s not a good thing when your girlfriend meets her family and she’s already resentful of them.

If people spend thousands of dollars on these hyperbolic chambers and underwater think tanks and stimulus deprivation rooms… and they do in fact work! Then what is always ever increasing bombardment doing to us and our mental and emotional and spiritual state? How is it affecting our ability to make sound judgments and decisions? It seems to me that it’s pretty evident That it’s affecting these things pretty badly! Think about how much time and energy and money we spend throwing back into the system. Is the system serving us or are we serving it? This on going rat race of going to work and then giving the money back the money back… living paycheck to paycheck while certain people get rich off of this cycle; off of us! The very people many of us loathe, we are supporting!

People’s expectations of their relationships quite often change.. And if you don’t change along with them -you are probably out! We see this quite often with people as they go from being immature in their relationship to maturing more and more. But who’s right or wrong in all of this? Surely all these relationships that are failing in our society cannot be a good thing. So where’s the issue? They tell me expectations of others is not a good thing. But constant growth personally and in your relationship is!

Dishonesty is a lack of faith in GOD!

We have to keep the sweet on our relationship clean at all times! THATS 1/2 THE KEY!!!!

What was America like when people were more united in this country? Well for one thing small government. People were more trusting. More willing to help one another. More fulfilled; less needy; less materialistic; fewer mental-healtg issues.

The greatest fear of those in power is the uniting of those they rule over! But we see in this country is a breaking down of unity among those being ruled! You want to know the future-look at the past!

Phones ate a distraction -or didn’t you know that? People have been heading more and more in the direction of “running away from life, from life’s problems” for quite some time now! There’s money 💰 to be made in that; as well as a decided advantage!

Tell me some people don’t really think this way ź The more drug addicted, alcoholic, mentally ill people there are out there, the less competition for their own spawn!

Once you know the laws of physics for example, any law for that matter 🤔 YOU CAN DO THINGS ON THIS PLANE [AND OTHERS] YOU COULDN’T PREVIOUSLY! “DOING” IS KEY? “BEING ABLE, BEING CAPABLE OF DOING” IS[N’T] THAT WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT?

If we couldn’t cut it in the garden of Eden and how the h*** are we gonna do out here? If we couldn’t keep from taking the 1st drink how are we gonna keep from taking the 2nd drink after we’ve had the 1st one?

The more we expose ourselves to “TRUTH” the more of GOD’S GRACE we will need as well!

WE L@@K out of curiosity and vulnerability! No curiosity, no feeling of vulnerability, NO [NEED TO] L@@K! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Take away the phones and people will start talking to each other again! Keep them in place and everything will remain as it is! Until, the next level anyways! The next wave!

HONEY with MINT!!!

You could have one weakness in your character; but a strength to counter it. Low self esteem that would normally lead to anxiety, and feelings of depression, worry about what others think of you… butt ☝ you also happen to have so.ething in your make up to neutralize theze effects of thatow self esteem!

Youre wearing down your batteries!

If ignorance is bliss; then what is “hyper-awareness’?

TEFLON-back versus spiny-back reversed! Alcoholics?

What’s the difference between a normal person who gets ignored and someone with “a-god-complex”?

The higher the stakes, the fewer people who can stand “the pressure”!

A sick mind cannot fix a sick mind; and a mind filled with “the world” cannot adequately contend with it!

So, if people who lived in poverty in childhood tend to go through life worrying about their finances even after being successful; how does growing up with many extras in life affect the person’s attitude towards finances and other things throughout the remainder of their life?

That’s the thing about having a free-floating-personality! No consistency! No stability!

If the problem is small -dont make it bigger! If the problem is BIG -address it as quickly as possible!

That’s the problem with having a job as a writer focusing on the world’s problems…

Better get used to it -doing things with lil or nothing in return from people, little or no gratitude, next to giving one’s life for another, is perhaps the highest honor… way of honoring GOD’S WILL!

Determining early on whether life is favorable to you or not and doing so accurately is a very important thing! A lot of people have it better than they might realize and they think life sucks! Life has it out for them!

Second week in a row -my days are off; VERY TELLING? BUT ABOUT WHAT?

FACEBOOK “Some people CAN make a decision; others can only try; but they will fail [because it’s not in them -not where they’re at].”

FACEBOOK “So many people out there who either:

1)Want what they want, or;

2)Are trying to protect themselves, or;

3)Both!”

●But where are GOD’S-PRINCIPLES IN ALL THIS?

I think my personality is controlled by my mind. If you can believe that. Kind of seems to be one of the more effective selections. Thoughtfulness. Politeness. Not from instinct. Not even from a naturally ingrained developmental standpoint early on.

“Are we not more than [just] fish in a pond; waiting for the next hook; with the latest worm; to get dropped into “the stream of life”? WE ARE DEVO!

FACEBOOK “It’s not enough to ask somebody to remove something, to put a halt to something…. No, we have to sue them! WE MUST START TEACHING PEOPLE TO PLACE LESS VALUE ON MONETARY THINGS; AND MORE VALUE ON “HIGHER-PRINCIPLES”!”

FACEBOOK “Thieves and Moths and Politicians too 🤔 Stop making clothes out of the things moths enjoy. Stop rewarding crooked politicians with the things they desire most. Stop giving so much value to the things in life that in turn [exceed actual value and] make thieves want to steal them [from you, grom me…]!” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ YOU CANNOT STEAL “A PRINCIPLE” -BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHEN A PERSON HAS PRINCIPLES, THEY DO NOT WANT TO STEAL! WHICH IS THE GREATEAST ASSURANCE OF ALL!!!!

TRUE-POWER! NOT HAVING TO…🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Two very telling keys to love calling GOD loves us because of who he is and because of what we are -not because of who we are!

Some people are unhappy either way!

Between the way people are and my high intellect, I can’t seem to find peace!

“Don’t worry about a thing, you’re doing great; It’s the rest of the world that’s f***** up -well that’s what keeps worrying me! 😆

🤔 I think I just figured out something, I was somewhat spoiled as a child so I think I myself am pretty liberal with my own money when it comes to spending it on myself and helping others. Remember the point above about how people who tend to grow up in poverty spend the remainder of their lives being extremely cruel and even stingy? Will there you have at exclamation poiat least that’s one example.

When it appears that people are on the verge of letting us down, it’s an opportunity for us to think of them in that situation in the best possible light -not the worst one.

GOD says the worst thing you can do to a human being is be kind to them in every way -even though they don’t treat you that kind. And when they lose you, it’s the worst feeling in the world for all but the most hardened and emotionless people!

THE WALL!!!!

FACEBOOK “Life, with all its challenge’s -is but a grain of sand in an ocean of GOD’S love!“❤❤

I think i’m afraid of putting myself in a position required [vulnerability -not 💰 but my ❤] to have a relationship with someone [which it is so important to never let your feelings race ahead of trust -but when you have been lonely and desperate -I know it’s hard Rick!]

If you can’t get love from others and you won’t accept GOD’S love… 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “Every reaction says something about us! Are we paying attention?”

FACEBOOK “GOD doesn’t have to give; and I don’t have to give!”

FACEBOOK A Grandmother’s love: “One of the earmarks of love is that people want to give more than get more from those they love. When love is not involved, this is generally not the case!”

FACEBOOK “If you have no intention of giving; you probably shouldn’t accept.”

Some of the worst of the worst own houses; and some of the best of the best can’t afford them -this says alot about our species; if not our world! GOD?

There are 2 kinds of faith in human relationships: Faith in others and their abilities; Faith in you and your abilities. Both tend to… but not equally, generally speaking.

If ignorance is bliss; then what is hyper-awareness? If people have been seeking solitude to get centered, and to clear their minds; then what is the state or condition of the average American constantly being bombarded?

Think highly of others; not poorly!

Life’s hard enough without us making it harder for our selves!

How to be prepared for everything!

GOD wants to encourage our faith not discouraged! And in as many cases as possible call when we show faith in GOD… GOD is very pleased and wants to both encourage, and reward!

TRUST should surpass feelings in any relations. And at any given point throughout the relationship.

FACEBOOK “An epidemic of “MISTRUST”! HOW IS IT WE LET THINGS GET TO THIS POINT? WE MOVE SO MANY THINGS TO OUR OWN ADVANTAGE AS IF WE WERE “MASTERS OF THE WORLD”, “MASTERS OF OUR OWN DESTINY’S IN FACT!” SO HOW IS IT WE HAVE COME TO LIVE IN A COUNTRY PLAGUED BY “MISTRUST” -ALLOWED TO GO UNCHECKED?” Unfortunately, in GOD’S UNIVERSE. FOR EVERY SCENARIO, THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO GOOD [EXPLOITS -ACHIEVEMENTS, ADVENTURES] AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO BAD [EXPLOIT -MAKE FULL USE OF AND DERIVE BENEFIT FROM]!*

*Man historically, has learned how to exploit certain situations [not all of them yet]; but why stop there? As man grows [as he was created to do?], and begins to gain in confidence, and in this case “lose-ground morally”; How shall I put this, 🤔 he begins to ask himself such questions as “why should I wait around to exploit certain situations that come around “only so often”?” Why not “create these situations” [or scenarios @ will] and thus “exploit them @ will”?**

**An atmosphere of fear is always presented with an opportunity to exploit the individual or the masses! This is in fact quite an ancient and well-understood fact throughout history – Scattering a herd of animals; Introducing fear and discombobulation… It’s a very basic but effective example of exploiting an opportunity created by the predator itself!

Man doesn’t tend to be a giver under the “Capatalist-sun”! Not our best system to operate under in terms of “the propagation of charity and brotherly-love”!

Wherever possible, a man certainly wants to avoid issue or resentment over a given outcome or situation. At said, he most certainly does not want to develop an issue or a resemblance over something that has not in fact happened -except in his mind!

FACEBOOK “Most human beings are flawed on their best day! Most human beings are flawed even when trying to do good! So, when we find ourselves amidst an individual or group of individuals who are not necessarily trying to do good -along with the added fact that human beings are basically flawed-creatures… [it creates a “double-flaw” of sorts]?” 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

FACEBOOK “Wherever man happens to be in his evolution, without a “positive-effort” instilled in him [his spawn as well], wherever he is at; ensuing generations will continue to take up where he left off, this spiraling downwards (of course not everyone is spiraling downwards -in their own estimation as long as they continue to remain above their fellows -“SICK”) [two ways of gaining advantage over your fellows: rising above them; causing them to spiraling downwards; or preferably both]!”

FACEBOOK “Why are we not progressing in certain areas? As if in fact, we are regressing? Well, man has problems in certain areas he refuses to overcome. Additionally, knowledge is power, man often likes to interfere with the “natural evolution of his fellows” in an attempt to gain ‘an advantage’. And finally, man loves to interfere with evolution in order to “make a name for himself”, or to “suit his own fancy”. This I would term “Man, the selfish creature” or “Man, the twisted creature”.”

FACEBOOK “We humans are not perfect. When… Well I suppose it depends on what we’re looking for. This is a bit cumbersome but I’ll try to relay it just the same. When embarking upon a relationship with another human being who is as stated above -flawed as we all are. It’s important that that individual have at their basic core -a goodness to them. Or ar the very least “the desire to be good”. Or at the very least “the potential “desire to be good””. Now then, how shall I put this; GOD doesn’t require us to be good; Otherwise all bets would be off with 90% of the population. But I think at the very least -HE is looking for either “the desire to be good” or “the potential desire to be good” innate in most individuals!”

“Passive-aggressive” what an unsophisticated approach! The ability or even the willingness to communicate in a diplomatic fashion under the most taxing of circumstances… When we have resentment towards people it is so difficult to be diplomatic. To show panache.

Another thing in reverse-betting is that you don’t risk the lower tier only to have y, our team end up losing in the final tier! Because then you end up losing money and you endip without the final objective intact! If you bet against your team and they win and you lose money… That’s great! But if you lose money and they fail to make it to the ultimate goal then you’ve garnered a loss-loss scenario. It’s best to bet on the final-game-only… So that when you bet against your team, if they win you win, if they lose you win, and that’s the end of it!

FACEBOOK “I, like most human beings, have a vested in entertaining a particular discussion or addressing a particular issue. When this vested interest is removed however, the possibilities are endless -become infinite rather than finite!”

FACEBOOK “I, like most people need help seeing the forest from the trees; as well as the trees from the forest! Man cannot reach his full potential individually -Nor can he come up with solutions to all his problems without a collective effort –And the same holds true for “The actual implementation of these solutions” which eventually lead to “a resolution”! Therefore, why so often does man insist on “taking-on-life” HALF-COCKED so-to-speak? 🤔 Well, among other things, competition rather than cooperation! Competition can be a very good thing! Unfortunately, man often lacks the insight regarding when to compete and when to cooperate [or simply refuses -as is so often the case (it’s his continual shortcoming]!”

FACEBOOK “Oftentimes, man’s interest, or primary goal: is not harmony, or even success; but destruction [failure through destruction -success through failure -WOW]!”

FACEBOOK “We want to avoid the definition [or the materialization “of the definition”] of the term “harmful” in our relationships!” But not at “any and all costs”! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Consumption of alcohol, the pursuit of its effects, comes at a price -self-induced “poisoning”. Poisoning in “small doses”!

I want to be able to say say I also have a healthy relationship. But it can’t be in and of itself success. There has to be substance behind it! Love!”

FACEBOOK “Think about what the world is like without love [the areas that lack it significantly -go on, you can do it]! And then ask yourself “Why would you or anybody else -ever want to bring less of it; rather than more of it into the world?” 🤔 Is it because we’re not thinking straight? Rather, is it because man in his narrow and selfish thinking; is only interested in creating love in his own personal [hand-picked] little worlds -here and there!”

I remember Ana seeing a commercial with a woman vacuuming and her new TV had a camera and she could see herself on that tv. But they pulled that commercial rather quickly and you never saw it again.”*

All that needs to happen is to have the wrong person slip in and take charge of that mechanism or machine [or philosophy] that has been put into place! “AND DON’T GIVE ME ANY OF THAT SHIT ABOUT “YOUR CHILDREN”; I’m quite certain that the men who stood by this philosophy had children as well! In fact, a big part of the reason for this philosophy was to protect their children from the very thing we believe we’re being protected by today [Haven’t you heard the saying, man is both corruptible and changeable at the same time? You don’t sell your soul to satan in order to protect yourself from a man]. Jesus Christ, what is it gonna take for man to stay on track generation after generation after generation! We forget about the lessons from the past and we repeat the same mistakes over and over! I’m sure there’s a philosophy in there somewhere -I’ve heard of before LMAO Human beings need constant reminding about the lessons of the past! Some human-beings, and with great zeal I might add 🤔 -are hoping, or helping us to forget those lessons; so that they can exploit us!

Wishing anything less than absolute success: the absolute best for those around you; those you are closest to and love -is no good!

If we don’t want people robbing from each other then don’t make material things the most important thing among that society. And don’t make a shift where there is a gap creating two very lopsided sectors of that society! Once again, we create our own problems. And the rich and powerful were probably as much or more to blame have a greater ability to protect themselves from the problem then do the weak and poor. So they’re attitude as indifferent because they think they can have the best of both worlds.

FACEBOOK “Didn’t the people who wrote the Constitution [CERTAINLY THEIR CHILDREN & THEIR GRANDCHILDREN] -What? 🤔 We think we know more about the mindset of the these people from glancing, from glossing over [in some cases] a piece of paper -the mere foundation of perhaps the greatest society in man’s history, to date- by a few twisted people who themselves happen to come along a couple hundred years later with their own twisted agendas?… Weren’t they [our Founding-Fathers] around when the Lord’s prayer; and the Ten-Commandments; and statues of various religious figures were placed in places of government?

There are plenty of people out there that we think would be good for us as partners. But GOD knows who would be the very best!

But if you approach people with their own welfare in mind [dual-interest] -even with your own interest in tact -you are liable to receive a luke-warm, if not semi-appreciative response at the very least! Anger de-escalation! When people in the store for example or over the phone with customer service for example show no interest in your issue -but only bring their own concerns to the fore – It tends to escalate a person’s anger. However, when in a similar situation you encounter a person who at the very least shows concern for your own concerns and welfare… It tends to de-escalate your anger does it not?”*

*Telling people you understand when you really don’t semi: telling people to calm down when their angry as well -doesn’t work for a lot of people! Listening quietly does in many cases! All some people want is to be heard!** Additionally, relating to people [supporting them] who are angry by telling them “UfI was in your position, I would be angry as well” also can be effective in de-escalating their anger or frustration(s). Thank You Magpie ❤

**When somebody comes to me with an issue nowadays, the first thing I ask them is this: Are you just wanting to be listened to; or are you seeking my input?

I wouldn’t say that the weak cannot help the week -but I will say it is often the case -the weak attempting to help the weak! Because the strong are often living in another part of town so to speak! Literally, and figuratively. When GOD made us, HE offered everything to us that HE knew we needed, I’m including things inside of us that would allow us collectively to face life together and be victorious! But mankind, with all the challenges life presents, and in spite of GOD’S wisdom, has chosen a different path -often leading to failure [or defeat if you will]! He leaves the weak behind in many instances. He also has his own ideas about what victory entails -He often buys into the notion that the life he himself has created [without GOD’S help so he thinks, nor his fellows so he thinks], is a Victorious one! How many of us can say that we achieve the life we achieved with no participation or help from our fellow human-beings or from GOD whatsoever!? How many of us believe we can have victory over life when God-ordained that man is to only have victory over life with God’s help and with the help of his fellow human beings in the form of unity and brotherhood of man? It just isn’t so! Whatever life you think you have built for yourself on your own which appears to be Victorious -is only a sham-life! It’s like the person who goes through life picking and choosing who he will love while disregarding the rest of his fellows -real love [inside of us] JUST DOESN’T WORK THAT WAY! 💔 So whatever you think you’re giving to “a select few”… you might want to think again!

Instead of men and women seeing themselves as an intricate part, two parts of a puzzle that need each other… We only see what… check that… we use what GOD-created as a beautiful mystery designed to help us to solve problems and provide us with companionship… We tend to see our differences in such a way as to only lead to conflict rather than harmony and benefit [opportunities for: growth; problem-resolution [where our own limitations end… where we ourselves are weak; our partner is perhaps strong; and visa-versa (if we have chosen a partner according to GOD’S will and wisdom); companionship; more balanced off-spring]!

Sometimes experiences we have had, we think 🤔 later prompt us to overreact; are in fact raising us, our attitudes… to the level where they/we should be to begin with! Where they should have been all along [🤔we are right where we’re supposed to be @ any given time?]. We have an experience over here, and we bring the residual effects of that experience experience over there. Isn’t that the way I’m supposed to work? Are we not at all times a product of all our experiences? Unless of course you choose to use that experience in a negative way in a situation over there! Experiences are designed to make us better not worse! Better not worse with the challenges that lie ahead! If man would only operate according to how GOD intended us to!

“I was raised to keep people away come and not draw them close to me!”If we know delayed consequences don’t work and delayed gratification is unwanted by man….

If we know delayed consequences don’t work and delayed gratification if something man wants nothing to do with… Then explain to me why…

Reverse psychology: Teaching [conditioning] people that the right way doesn’t work [is essentially the wrong way] because the world is backwards [without informing them the latter of course]! In the town where I live and where alcoholism and addiction and abuse and neglect are so prevalent… towards the women… it’s the norm… A man who is kind and honest and gentle and loving, is not greeted well. Finds out rathervquickly that his character is something they are not comfortable with. When children are not being taught as is the case now… or by example being shown the wrong way… it can work to their advantage when facing God! Since God is a just God, he does not punish people for not knowing right from wrong!

Child support and children, a couple of things I ran into that were problematic with the system: For one thing we don’t demand that parents work to raise their children and support them! For another thing we don’t keep tabs on how much money is being spent in the home on the children-my father spent a total of negative $100 a month on me every month in support.

What’s the opposite of retaliation? In terms of achieving the opposite result? The opposite result in a similar situation which calls for retaliation!

Depending on how often you clean something it will either continue to get cleaner or continue to get dirtier. Thoroughness matters as well!

Once the order has been sent from the brain to a particular part of the body it’s too late isn’t it?

FACEBOOK “Some people are here to be served; most to serve. You find out pretty early on, which you have “been brought here for”!

[certainly don’t care for it*]” 🤔

*I have to remember though, “the physical world” and “the spiritual world” are like two pyramids that are “mirror-opposites”. Most people want to be a part of the Pyramid where they are on top -not at the bottom. It’s a little bit confusing. Confusing as to which one is right side up and the other is upside down. In the spiritual Pyramid, the last shall be 1st and the 1st shall be last – That being said, is the Pyramid right side up or right side down? Well I suppose it goes like this -in the physical world the spiritual Pyramid appears upside down. In the spiritual world the physical Pyramid appears upside down. So, 🤔 from this we take: What man often views as “the top” GOD often views as the bottom. Another way of looking at it is this: In “man’s world” -there is the most and the least. In “the spiritual world” everything is equally significant; however seemingly big or small [but man always wants “THE BIG”].

*You say we make our own fate? They’re fate in the traditional sense is nonsense? Some of the smartest people in the world, are the most successful. And some of the not smartest people in the world, are the most successful? They buck the odds. But is that what it is? Some of the smartest people in the world come as hard as they try, can only amass nominal success! It just doesn’t make any sense; unless you look at it from the standpoint that it’s fate.

Some people will not do anything charitable -unless it’s big. They’ll cut a million dollar check; but they won’t go to the soup line and serve soup (beneath them?]. They’ll even cut a million dollar check as long as it’s tax deductible. Some people dream of doing big things; but they can’t even do the most humble (simplest] of things -really??? Very telling! Probably most of the most successful people in life [(certainly the most rounded (and grounded?)] started somewhere close to the bottom-thinking about it!

2 things man must always contend with: His [excessive] appetites; His [flailing/fleeting] sense of worth. Is this a system of checks and balances? [Or] Does man purposely instill in his fellow man “A SENSE OF UNWORTHINESS” [i.e. in his spawn -at an early age] in order to have a “competetive-edge”? Two ways man gains superiority over his fellow man: work to surpass others; work to thwart the progress of those around him.

Thank you for answering my prayer dear LORD 🙏🏻; for I had forgotten in a split 2nd this following writing which was a spinner from the above: If you really want to screw over your enemy get him before hes even been born! I utero? Ironically enough, or rather interestingly enough, it either doesn’t seem feasible, or 🤔 it simply isn’t necessary*. If you can produce a generation of highly dysfunctional individuals… They will do the work for you; in screwing over the next generation royally! Thus, giving you and your children “a significant competitive-edge”!

*Some people become so enamored with 💰; 💰, and the power it holds on this plane! Way beyond most people’s… MONEY IS THEIR GOD! 🤷‍♂️ The way the story goes is GOD should be the most important thing in your life! Therefore, 🤔 whether your “in the game or not” (because it’s a law and 🤔 last time I checked -none of us is exempt “from the law!”), whatever happens to be the most important thing “to you” is, “for all intense and purposes” (is there a more “impending* -“intensive purpose”” in/to life?) “YOUR GOD” -agree with it or not; like it or not!

*Had to look up 🤔

Does fear* put others at an advantage or at a disadvantage? How bout anger? Fighting a man who’s filled with anger or even rage can be a daunting task [but not to the man who is prepared for it].

*Do most people excel or underachieve [had to look up “opposite” of excel -sorry (didn’t feel like fumbling for a bit with it)] based upon fear?

☆☆☆☆☆Remember, 🤔 be prepared for anything! [With a few simple (basic) principles].

Do you know exactly what you need to do in order to stay it’s your exact weight and health? It came to me the other day-another way of looking at this is follow a precise exercise regime and you will reach a precise level and maintain it more or less by following the exact regime consistently. Only GOD can precisely… Just about everything involving man fluctuates -however slightly.

* Is man that diabolical and calculating with regard to his fellow man? No! Man is that diabolical and calculating with regard to achieving his own ends! Man just happens to be one of those obstacles in the way -by his way of thinking. Because everybody more or less wants the same thing out of life! Setting up a dysfunctional generasian is the beginning of a chain reaction of ensuing generations change when people are overworked, lacking in self knowledge, lacking in perspective, carrying within themselves a sense of helplessness and hopelessness with regard to making any significant change in their lives.

Some people get put into a situation where they are clearly unfamiliar and therefore their skills are weak. But they very quickly learn and strengthen in those areas where their skills are neat -must be nice!

Playing the victim is all well and fine -perhaps when you are single. A lot of things may in fact seem fine when you are single. But when you have a partner they are watching you. For one thing they have an entirely different perspective or bandage point. Another thing is that people are always looking to get a good deal -not a bad one! Not that there’s not some merit in a bad one – JESUS took on all kinds of bad deals -and gained merit after merit after merit [Glory in HIS case]!

“BE GENTLE WITH ONE ANOTHER.”

“You know how many opportunities I’ve had in life personally and on the job and how did the world to communicate to people with diplomacy and wisdom and gentleness? Situations were people were hurtful or thoughtless? And you know how many of those opportunities have actually seized upon? Practically none of them! I either lashed out come or later in life get my mouth shut. Was it ego? Was it pride? Was it resentmentfulness? Was it self-preservation or self-interest? Was it aloofness? Was it discouragement? Was it ignorance? Was it fear?

People pulling up stakes and leaving seems to be a more and more common thing with relationships-people are becoming less and less monogamous minded in terms of sticking it out for the Long Haul! So,🤔 when our expectations don’t meet reality -even if that reality happens to be unrealistic or enhealthy… guess it doesn’t matter grom a certain perspective -You had an unreal expectations nonetheless! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Until you raise a child you’ll never come full circle. Until you forgive your parents you’ll never go full circle.

People, certain people will try to provoke us into ruining “the relationship”. They themselves either cannot do it. Or, in their own minds, can not allow themselves to be responsible -directly! How many times do people side-step? Instead of dealing with difficulties directly; we deal with them indirectly, or inappropriately [neurosis?]. Like when I have “fear” in my relationships -instead of confronting it [myself; my own…], or approaching the individual i’m in a relationship with about it; I do “sabotage”.

In any given situation we can only go to one extreme or the other -right? WRONG! We can also choose to off shoot in an entirely different direction [avoidance maybe?].
