FACEBOOK I stumbled on something about 15 or 20 or 25 or more years ago that was very interesting 🤔. How much would you be willing to pay for your favorite team to win the Super bowl or the World Series or the NBA Championship? Or perhaps rather, how much would you be willing to lose? Well it goes like this, and the more exciting the game, or the more there is up for stake… Let’s say your team is in the big game for the final game of the season in the playoffs? Let’s say the 49ers are playing the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC championship and you’d give anything to have the Niners win that game [there’s an extraordinary level of emotional investment]. The higher the level of emotional investment… the higher you might be willing to invest in a bet. And get this 🤔, when your team is the underdog -it gets even more interesting. So let’s say the 49ers again are playing the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC championship. You bet $100 dollars, and your Niners are 3/1 underdogs. The BIG-GAME plays out; both teams give it everything they’ve got; but your Niners come up short and your disappointed 😞. But to help you get through the morning [and mourning] of your loss, you pick up a nice little payday of $400! 🤷♂️ Now here’s the other thing; Now here’s the other side of that 🪙; if the 49ers win and make it to the Superbowl -you’re so excited you could care less about the measly hundred dollars you just lost ‐because you were willing to pay that much to have them move forward anyways right? So, if you 🏆 [win], you lose “X”; if you lose, you 🏆 [win] “3X” + “X” [back]! 😉 I guess for most of us [fanz], “all-or-nothing” has been the conventional approach in betting [because I’ve never heard of anyone betting like this before]. And then of course there have always been those “playing-the-odds” simply to 📈 profit 🤷♂️.
You can put an envelope in the mailbox without a stamp and it will be returned to the sender. However, if you reverse the addresses of the sender and the person receiving… The envelope will return to where you wanted it to go -rather than to you. 🤷♂️ So, if you 🏆 [win], you lose “X”; if you lose, you 🏆 [win] “3X” + “X” [back]! 😉
It is oftentimes difficult for a person with issues to adopt newer and better ways when in fact they have not had the luxury of experiencing firsthand and beforehand the benefits and advantages of changing we’re adopting these new ways.

Or… would be the optimal time and place where the harvesting of souls would be richest [one preceeded by… or prompted by the other?]. Likely man on the precipice of his demise, crying out to his HEAVENLY-FATHER for mercy [not that we are worthy, but GOD makes allowances]. I mean if the name of the game is Salvation, and thus eternity in Heaven… Then you have to figure that the end times have something to do with that -“The final judgment!” Again, you have to figure a loving Father who is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-merciful would pick a point for Judgment-Day where HE can reap as many of the souls of HIS children as possible. Snatch from satan as many as possible! HEAVEN HAS LAWS, JUST AS WE DO DOWN HERE! But remember, God can change LAWS [at will], we cannot! 🤷♂️🤷♀️

We’ve analyzed relationships so much over the last 50-60 years. And we have not only transformed it into a science but also big business. Nobody can make a single move anymore, and in time [oh, is he or she moving too quickly… the appropriate time for “this” should be… while the appropriate time for “that” should be… Red-Flag-City lol] , without giving it 10 different meanings.

I used to get very angry with people-but nowadays what’s the point? You never change anything. People seldom do what they don’t want to do when it’s not in their best interest or when they only see that it’s not in their best interest. Anytime we affect a positive change involving another, it’s always a positive change for ourselves! In addition, the more you try to force a human being to do something the more they will often go in the opposite direction. It sucks but that’s the way so many of us are! I’m sure THE ALMIGHTY HIMSELF has a few tales about that!
Just as all kinds of things go wrong when we trust man too much; all kinds of things go right when we trust GOD too much!
Are you who you put yourself out to be to others in reality? A person who is who they are for better or for worse is a lot healthier than a person who pretends not to be who they are who pretends to be better than they are. At least that’s my thought to! Perhaps one of the healthiest features a human being can ascribe to is being who they are for better or for worse and -being who they are with other people for better or for worse. Sure we will suffer some consequences, but that’s how we change and grow and learn. People who manage to sidestep consequences seldom change or grow or learn and most certainly do not please GOD in the process. Let me preference the above by saying that there’s a difference being fake [for person gain or to avoid a consequence] versus attempting to be a better self. Let’s face a common most of us try to improve ourselves and our character because it’s beneficial. Most of us probably aren’t thinking about pleasing GOD. Or more of the other internal aspects. It takes great integrity of/and character to narrow it down to these. But as I was saying, there’s a difference between being on your best behavior for selfish reasons; and being on your best behavior for unselfish reasons. For reasons that are admirable and warrant merit! The highest merit -that of pleasing our CREATOR!
A man who is spiritually-right has no trouble resisting various temptations [in perhaps lower forms -but really it’s different for each individual depending on where and to what degree he or she has given themselves over to GOD]. Let’s not get too carried away here lol. For instance a man who is spiritually-fit can resist the temptation to sleep with a woman for example that he really likes and would prefer to hold off on where as a man who is unspiritually-fit will likely be doomed.

Sometimes you get it -if even only by a thread. Some people don’t know. Some people do know -but they can’t seem to get it to play out in their own lives. Many people who for example work and field assisting people with their relationships can’t seem to make their own work.

FACEBOOK “There’s a difference between ‘not doing something anymore because you’ve gotten an attitude towards someone and not doing it anymore because you’re reading the relationship and feel it’s the right thing to do’ [at the time].

I would sometimes dream or rather envision the type of man who had the ability to really connect with women. True-Shtory! 🤷♂️
One thing you really want to avoid is injuring an injury. That’s why football players and basketball players are pulled immediately after an injury. Fighters too with a broken nose or broken hand nowadays… Broken rib… Concussion…
FACEBOOK The devil turned the tables on Christianity, or so it seems for the time being. Anyone practicing “out-of-the-norm” acts of kindness, generosity or friendliness… are viewed with increasing suspicion, scorn, ridicule! Can’t we see what’s happening here? The “Pyramid”, the symbol of… is being subverted [inverted?]. When God’s teachings become viewed as “abnormal“. As Al Pacino put it in the movie …And Justice For All ~”There’s something really wrong here!”~ This is all paving the way for the [spiritual] battle between good and evil. And the persecution once again of Christians! Think I’m lying?????
Start challenging those hang UPS, start challenging thoyou’ll syncrasize that you’ve been carrying around with you, in some cases wilfully, in some cases proudly for the past few years or decades. I’m going to challenge one right now!
Momentum is dangerous and can be counterproductive and exercising-especially when you’re older.
Man’s problem so often with the gift of God’s grace is he simply cannot enjoy it. Of course the lack of appreciation, or even recognition IS OFTEN THE CASE AS WELL. 🤷♂️ A lack of basic common sense or appreciation aside, man’s ego often swells in the midst of such power afforded to him in the form of grace!
it’s simply amazing not only in the contrast in an individual woman but as a whole, when a man walks into the room who is highly appealing versus a man who is viewed with suspicion or even loathed. That sort of thing is a turn-off -which is why women who are not like that I love so much.
When you pay your no-interest loan off in a timely fashion so that there’s no interest applied at the end, thanks 10 21 loan you more money in the future so then it’s some point you get into so much that you can pay it off in time. And then of course when you don’t pay it off in time you end up paying interest and of course when you are late you end up paying a penalty or a higher rate, OR BOTH! It’s all about them!
98% of people either have a healthy respect for the law and common sense, or feel they have something to lose, it’s the remaining 2% we all have to really watch out for!
How? GOD!!!
Makes you wonder 🤔 why some people don’t duplicate that formula more often!
Wording, and choices of words is something we really have to be careful with with one another. Phrasing?
The relationship game… If you’re prepared for any outcome emotionally… For the longest time I wasn’t even close. I have a different foundation and a different understanding and perspective. For me most things have never worked out so chances are that will continue to be the case. I refuse to concede to that for many many years and it’s a painful way to go. Sometimes agonizing. But there are other things that have changed in my life with regard to failure and disappointment. Maybe I just have less hope.
F-CJust hold up your end, don’t get sidetracked by outcomes or consequences or attitudes or judgment.
Rinse your eyes out occasionally. And if you’re going to take a shower only once A-day take it at night at the end of the work day not in the morning before the work day. Just a suggestion.
Drinking works so well I completely forgot.. Drinking work so well when I came into Alcoholics Anonymous I honestly was convinced that drinking was my problem. It took me a while to figure out that I was the problem and that was the reason why I drank to begin with. At least in part lol -yeah right!
Some people you just… your eyes just seem to wander back to in a room for example. 🤔
Took me almost 7 years before I could walk in a store, not buy anything, walk out being afraid somebody os going to grab me by the collar and tell me to empty my pocketsm

if life REALLY sucks, a person has a tendency not to care so much whether they live or die. When life is great. [The other extreme] people have a tendency to cling yo life [more] voraciously, more zealously!
As a man, don’t you just hate the idea that another man can treat your wife, or partner BETTER THAN YOU? There is a way around that you know!
Why doesn’t the News talk more about things like “man brings flowers home to his wife for second straight wee in a row?
We doubt God in so many ways and he is the most sure fire thing in the universe he is more knowledgeable and wise and loving then we could possibly imagine! And these are precisely the areas where we fail to either believe in him or understand him.
“…unless you have other plans LORD!”
Why am I not surprised that mankind is becoming increasingly melded with technology? Rather than with GOD!
The more reality we can take in.. The more we can process and not fight or run away from or inhibited ourselves through.. I think everything in us.. I guess it’s that old saying what doesn’t kill us makes it stronger. With a wrinkle, the more things we can face that don’t kill us the stronger we will become. Perhaps I’ve been doing that voluntarily all these years.
I think I created a lot of scenarios and why in life for the lessons that I needed to learn stubborn league. Just think about that 1. I’m not bragging on myself, I’d say the same thing about another-there’s an incredible type of character to that approach -or stupidity lol
Most people don’t appear to have a problem with a person who has a sensible-approach to life.
If a person with a great foundation starting life [growing up] tried as hard [at improving him or her self] as a person who was practically obsessed with undoing the damage from a less than ideal life [a very poor upbringing]… imagine what that person could/would accomplish at the end of their life [imagine a whole country, an entire world filled with such people]! Afterall, there’s no rule that states “no matter where you start out in life, you can’t/shouldn’t improve”. I’m not talking about improvement that gets you by in life, or gets you material successes, or an ideal lifestyle or relationship -I’m talking about pushing beyond that, I’m talking about reaching the stratosphere [or pinnacle] of self-manifestation. Or whatever it is that that philosopher called it. Thank you LORD! Self-actualization!
I try to imagine what life in this country could be like if we based it upon “spiritual-health and well-being” rather than “physical-power and material-excesses”. 🤷♂️ A world led by GOD, and love, and charity; rather than man, and fear, and greed.

Two things God told me when I first moved into my new apartment: It’s not what other people think it’s what I think;z People are what is important! True story!
FACEBOOK Back when I first moved into my apartment in 2003-2004. I remember hearing a broadcast in reference to Andy Roddick who s fairly new to tennis at the time. The reporter or broadcaster said of Andy Roddick with high praise, “for such a young man he really does get it”. Or words to that effect. Now it’s been clear to me all my life, that I never really did he added. So at that moment or very shortly after that, So at that moment or very shortly after that, few minutes, couple hours… I turned to GOD and… well I guess pleaded with HIM “GOD, I WANT TO GET IT!” A response as immediate as a bolt of lightning ensued. 2 things:
■ “It doesn’t matter what other pints people think, what matters is what I think!” We all care so much for what other people think and so little about what GOD thinks.
■ “People are what matters!”
Are you floored? I still am to this day! 🤷♂️
FACEBOOK GOD knows everything about us and still HE loves us. You can only come up with an accurate hypothesis or… With all the facts correct? Seldomly does man ever have all the facts, if ever! And yet he forms conclusions all the time. Of course it’s no secret that man judges his fellow man all the time -with very little of the facts, sometimes none at all. Do you really want to match man’s conclusions against GOD’S? Do you really want to choose man’s conclusions over GOD’S?
If people shouldn’t be overconfident when things are a lock -which is practically non-existent. Then how is it that so often we are confident In things that are not a lock?
What does the public consumption of Alcohol and the public demonstrationhomosexuality have in common? If you can answer this…
I’m an individual thinker. Sometimes this works out better than conventional societal norms and wisdom: Sometimes it doesn’t. What I mean by the latter is that sometimes it isn’t well. And since I am flying solo, winning it’s so to speak, sometimes the risk doesn’t pay off. The antithesis of that is people playing it’s safe; The loss of doing that is that society doesn’t have the best answers in a lot of areas. Am I a Maverick or just rebellious?

The way we love our children is the way we should love our partners. No stipulations! Then, and only then, we are all but guaranteed longevity in them!
With some people. Unless you’re really out their as far as such things as values go, they will [this is one way of looking at it] lump you in with everyone else! My family, and maybe they’re right to do so, don’t see me as highly intelligent, or devout. I’m just “Rick -same old Rick”. Although someone in the family once told me I had changed. Some people don’t recognize ‘what only appear to be minor fluctuations in character[?].
Extremely strong Faith! Someone once commented a couple of years ago that they wished they had as much Faith in GOD as I did. ☺
☆☆☆☆☆Alcoholics and death. Extreme self-centetedness. Guilt. Shame. Fear -greater than normal!
A lot of people in the rooms of Alcoholics who don’t want to hear about religion from other members are practicing the same closeness that they themselves were victims of. 🤷♂️
FACEBOOK “I stumbled across something years ago. Many people, in AA for example, are uncomfortable with hearing the precepts or principles of religion. I tell them that the principles themselves were around long before organized religion ever existed. Therefore, they are not religious in nature -but spiritual rather. Universal [and beyond perhaps (definition of “spiritual”)] in fact!” 🤷♂️
Are you more spiritual than human, or more human than spiritual?
It’s not a sin to be poor. But according to Jesus it’s no excuse for stealing. Personally I don’t have a problem with a guy stealing to feed his family. But to support his drug habit or to take a woman out on a date or impress her… Nahhhh!
If we didn’t make materialism such a priority in this country, people would probably be less inclined to steal. Society creates its own nightmares! But good luck trying to convince them of that. The guy who walks into a Post Office in shoots 30 people… The guy who walks into a school and shoots 30 children… 911… Even hint at the idea that society or our country brought it upon themselves in part or as a whole… Would bring about such a back lash towards that individual… People can’t, or don’t want to make “that” connection.
don’t have anything against certain races [although my upbringing had in it elements of racism I must continually strive to overcome] I have a thing against certain types of people in those races. Some races seem to have an abundance of those types of [unsavory] people I don’t care for. Being poor is no excuse for stealing. We should use individual standards rather than expect everyone to abide by the same one. Frankly, this is impossible to achieve. We have a lawsuited class system but we demand a level playing field when it comes to conduct. How many people in this country, people supposedly with intelligence and a proper education, could stop indulging in excesses, and stop making a life whereby they set themselves above others? Just because a certain lifestyle is legal and warranted acceptable, doesn’t mean that people who are weak when it comes to attempting to go against their own inclinations towards fulfilling that destiny. Weakness purveys all areas of our humanity. We just don’t see them as much or think about them as much in the areas of life deemed acceptable or normal by man’s own declarations! My brother for example, is one of those guys that thinks that everybody should go out and earn a living -that there is no free-lunch. I had to tell him that not everybody is the same. But if he had the issue some people had, it’s the old, “everything were equal…, you would do precisely the same thing”. People in their own ignorance fail to recognize, understand, have the compassion to realize these truths. GOD has to make all kinds of concessions for each and every one of us because of this fact of life. That is to say GOD who is all-knowing and supreme in HIS being.
This need to make GOD a female -tell me what that’s all about? This need to make GOD black – tell me what that’s all about?
The more individualistic we become in the extreme… “Oh that’s your God, that’s not my GOD!”
Tell me something, as we dive deeper within, do we become more alike or less alike? Let’s try this, are we more different on the outside and appearance than we are inside in our appearance? I think a lot of Americans have trouble distinguishing one Chinese from another, but Chinese don’t have this problem. Penguins don’t have this problem. They go by something more than appearance.
FACEBOOK “If you don’t keep going, the people behind you, [or] the people you deem below you, will eventually surpass you! This is often the case in relationships with one person growing and another person is not growing. They can’t help a but grow apart.” Which begs the question, “How can two people who are close -grow even closer?”
FACEBOOK “How do you stop liking something you like? Something bad for you.” 🤔
Tobacco Companies. Alcoholic beverage Companies…
FACEBOOK “When are those who are in charge, who cannot for example, relate to being bullied, start taking bullying more seriously! Isn’t that usually the case, people who can’t relate who are “in power” usually don’t act with a sense of urgency*! Once again, why did GOD make the world that way. Why can’t the people in charge be the one’s suffering -so they can act “with a greater sense of urgency”. Why can’t our politicians who are least at risk -be the ones most at risk -so they can act “with a greater sense of urgency!”” 🤷♂️
*For how many years were men in charge -numb to the plight of single women raising their children without financial support from the father?
In a relationship gone bad, someone usually starts to have thoughts that either create resentment or distance. That’s how it always worked with me. Hurt or resentment prompting us to look elsewhere. Sometimes it’s the other person’s fault. Sometimes we picked it the littlest of things ourselves. Sometimes we try to talk things through with our partners -and they are unsympathetic.
FACEBOOK “If you are unable to figure out what’s going on inside of someone; either ask them or think the best of them in your own ignorance of the facts. Even if a person tells us what’s going on inside of them; there’s a fair chance that they themselves don’t really know -and that they’re just guessing [especially with young people -I was young once].” 🤷♂️🤷♀️
FACEBOOK ~BE AS LITTLE CHILDREN~ “How can we as adults who ourselves who were once children -not be able to relate to children?” Is it society that does this to us? The structure and/or system we live under? Have created for ourselves or accepted someone else’s ideas -ideas of what it should be by standing by and offering little or no input, or resistance? We as human beings are generally busy little beavers doing things. All-too-often however, these motivations stem from “self”. This tends to include both people have seemingly little impact on society or the World as a whole, as well as those that do! Can you or I refute the fact that changes seem to be leaving many of us feeling more-and-more left behind?”
My Generation! As we age, we find ourselves less and less the primary target of society and Corporate America. Unless of course, as it was pointed out to me recently, you happen to be a part of the baby boomer generation.
FACEBOOK “We spend an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening with the people we love and who presumably love us… Only to go out into the world for 8 or 10 or 12 or 14 hours surrounded by people we haven’t the least bit of love for at all -and vice versa [in many cases we even loathe one another]. Human-beings were not made to spend an inordinate amount of time under stress or pain nor an inordinate amount of time with lack of love in their surroundings*. That ought to be pretty evident in this day-and-age! Drugs, materialism, infidelity, sickness due to stress and poor diet and sleepless nights. Mental-illness! Depression! What the hell are we thinking???

FACEBOOK “Just keep pouring good into your relationships [ward off those demons which visit us regularly in our heads & in our 💕’s] -and you [and I] will maximize the good that comes out of it. That’s all we can do!” 🤷♀️🤷♂️
FACEBOOK “When we tell the truth in any given situation -we maximize GOD’S [the Univerese’s] effect in that situation as well as giving the people around us the best opportunity possible to make decisions for themselves and perhaps the relationship between us, when they know the right facts. Even if that means them walking away -then so be it! 🤷♂️🤷♀️ Now people who have anger issues may be a different story -especially when we are weaker than, or simply more vulnerable to the people around us.”
FACEBOOK “When we lie, we set into motion… we unleash into the universe something most unnatural, something perhaps even most offensive! Unleash enough of it 🤔 and there’s bound to be some backlash eventually! And the worst is yet to come -if we continue on our present course? Man and satan are perhaps the only two entities in this universe that act against God’s perfect, principled, plan -everything else in it…” 🤷♀️🤷♂️
How do we know the universe isn’t alive! After all it has GOD in every molecule of it.
Relationships take on such a contrasting tone when they are happy, content, free from baggage or wreckage.
Every now and again when we make a mistake -things still work out. Every now and then when we make a mistake we discover that that’s precisely the right thing at that moment [given our own limitations regarding foresight & wisdom]. 🤷♂️🤷♀️

If you’re already at a healthy place in your life, and your partner is sick, when they begin to get healthier you’ll be right there waiting for them. When you’re sick and your partner sick and one of you makes The Choice to get better while the other remains the same… 🤷♀️🤷♂️
As it is in combat and fighting, so it is with love-stay as calm and relaxed and level headed as possible!
We have to get better first; Not last!
With Alcohol the relief was immediate, but the came the consequences for said transgression [thwarting/circumventing GOD’S natural process]. Or, we can do the work, deal with our condition, our discomfort with GOD’S comfort and aid, until he decides when the time is right to Grant us relief. And rather than their being consequences…

Everything we do has a consequence or an effect. But man is generally preoccupied with only a few things in his narrow, selfish world, WE MISS SOOOO MUCH because we feel it is of no consequence, or use to us [we are soooo preoccupied with…]This last sentence went as quickly as it came… I begged GOD and said the “Our Father” and within seconds it returned. Often times this is not the case. Often times I do do not plead at this depth either! Again, thank you my GOD! This was a huge one!
*Oftentimes, we will not notice things either, things seemingly so small they elude us.
Think about it, if a little bud can push up through and Crack a piece of asphalt –what can man do?

The problem with defining GOD IS -HE’S EVERYWHERE!!!!
The complexity of inventing a language.Let alone 200+ -are there that many geniuses evenly dispersed around the globe, throughout history? Or is it GOD?
Ask your partner “what are some of the things you have a problem with?”

It’s better that your girlfriend complained that you’re not giving her enough time than to be complaining that you’re smothering her..
Sooner or later we find out if something is real or not
There are certain things we should all probably do in order to maintain stability and a freedom from fear with regard to our relationships. What exactly those would be I have no idea lol
Thoughts generally strengthen or weaken. How we conduct ourselves in our relationships generally draws us closer to one another or push us further apart..I suppose the choices we make for ourselves as well….
Somebody usually becomes afraid of what they’re feeling in a new form relationship. If you can weather the storm and help your partner to calm those fears…. Love you comma’s fears by allowing them to realize or making them realize that their fears are unfounded with regard to you. I couldn’t do that with Ana.
Be grateful for everything God sends your way. Don’t just be grateful for 1 or 2 things because when they let you down your whole world comes crashing down.
From the very start to the very beginning relationships. Period from the very start to the very end relationships are constantly being affected. The very very early parts of them seem to be particularly fast and be affected it. And largely being affected.. A settling in period I suppose. People rush in begin to ease back… they may find themselves pulled ever closer or find themsells caught on the fence with based on different cues the other person is putting out.
If you don’t have the emotional chops or mental willness to correlate with the advice or guidance your counselor or psychologist is giving you… it’s just not gonna fare too well for you. That was me for so long
It’s not where you start out in a relationship but where are throughout the relationship and at the end of the relationship that determines whether it lasts. Unfortunately calm as so many people put so much emphasis on the beginning of the relationship and so far as whether or not there’s going to be a relationship or not.
GOD can do incredible things in our lives if we let HIM!
I’m not as empty and I’m not trying so desperately to escape my depression as in previous years. Gifts of healing and fulfillment!
Sometimes you get into something come sometimes God put something in our path… something indescribably wonderful.. But we’re barely able to make it work by the skin of our finger tips, And we do! Because GOD knows precisely our abilities.
It doesn’t matter to GOD whether we succeed as much as whether we try. In man’s world it’s all about results but it’s also so in GOD’S! Man is concerned with material results while GOD is concerned with spiritual ones! God will wait 50 years for a man to get it right. Often times man won’t wait 50 minutes! 😔
Satan must have said the road to h*** is paved with good intentions. Because God is all about good intentions! Things that matter from the heart ❤!

If you listen to HIS WORDS 🤔 One could easily conclude that this was NO ORDINARY MAN!

So d***** tired of these “games people play”! 🙄
“‘TRUTH” WITHOUT “LOVE” IS “CRUELTY” “TRUTH” WITH “LOVE ” IS “SALVATION”!” I was concerned that “damnation” would not fit.

*Damnation –Noun Condemnation [when we use the truth without love, are we not basically judging, even condemning; –Exclamation Anger or frustration (don’t people respond in anger or frustration when judged, or condemned?) [Definitions from Oxford Languages].

This involves or includes men as well and they’re various…
Some women cherish their right to say “NO” almost as much as they hate being told “NO*”! 🤷♂️ [SCATHING? PERHAPS -BUT ALWAYS YHERE IS ATLEAST A GRAIN OF TRUTH].
* Just my personal experience [“no” is a highly emotionally-charged Noun, or whatever it happens to be -and women, being some of the most “emotionally-charged” of the species…] 🤷♂️🤷♀️
I guess in prison you really have to learn how to watch your step in there! Whether you’re an inmate or a guard.
Give generously! Give graciously!!! Ask nothing in return! Demand nothing in return! And above all -DO NOT COMPLAIN! Can you just imagine Jesus complaining? Jesus being a Whiner? 🤣
“If you weren’t such a “bad-bad guy” -you’d probably make a “d*** fine good guy”. I’m intrigued by the ingenuity of some of these criminals who were simply “using GOD’S gifts” ‘the wrong way’.” 🤷♀️ 😋
Never play something broader or heavier than your foundation can support.
Serenity is a sign you’ve been strengthened while; Agitation or anxiety is a sign you’ve been weakened!
When you can’t remember something it’s because you lack power.
Once you’ve discovered the principle behind something… The possibilities are endless! The power gap between one level of understanding and another…
Refrain from making jokes on subjects you carry animosity or resentment or ill feelings towards.
Once a bug begins to penetrate into your mind and evenbully into your heart.. People who specialize in maintaining positive attitudes and the highest performance are very aware of these bugs.
After an overwhelming influx of GOD’S-Amazing-Grace, I contend [can tend] to get a little “cocky” – Then GOD comes along and puts me back in my place by pulling the chair out from under me ever so gently -or not [dependnding on the depth or degree of the transgression] 😏 😆
Some people can get away with some seemingly derogatory comments because the people close to them know they’re hard and know their intentions.
Sometimes I struggle in the face of this great gift in the form of insufficient humility and wisdom.
If you exercise but you don’t follow it up with eating properly…. A lot of that effort in the physical sense. The same could be said with regard to the other 2 in relation to each of the other 2. Not sure if that makes sense cause I’m trying to make lunch and I had really thought about it but.. Anything that could wink in or attack the spirit which is weakened is also a good thing though. Everything that… anything that strengthens the spirit is a good thing as well.
A spiritually unhealthy person has to force themselves to do a kind deed; whereas a spiritually healthy person has to force themselves not to.
“IT’S NOT ABOUT ME; IT’S ABOUT GOD!”
“”Who I am is GOD’S gift to me; What I make of myself is my gift to GOD!” One of the earliest spiritual philosophies I have ever been introduced to that I recall! I memorized it along with “If you love something set it free; if it comes back to you it’s yours, If it doesn’t it never was”.”
There are interviews of celebrities and stars and people in power regarding difficult even tragic circumstances or even triumphant ones.. Where you hear the same old thing over and over again. And then there are those moments where people really surprise you with a degree of spontaneity spontaneity and sincerity and depth that even knew yourself didn’t see it coming.
It’s a wonderful thing to be able to feel at a maximum level, in spite of the pain that often goes along with it!
If presumably you think about how rare emotions may in fact be in an intellectual being in the universe… Perhaps you would not take them for granted as much as you do and perhaps you would not be so inclined as to try and run away from them or drowned them out.
Even an idiot could learn something after 1,000 years. And God recognizes that if we had 1,000 years and would learn something he would take that into account on Judgement Day -Do ya think?
Making your partner feel small or insignificant
A punishing God? It’s easier for God to forgive us than it is for other people. It’s more likely the God will forgive us than other people.
Because of this plane we live on.. This earthly treacherous realm… If we couldn’t cut it in heaven how the h*** are we gonna cut it down here? If an alcoholic can’t cut it in Alcoholics Anonymous then how is he gonna cut it out in the real world? If you can’t refrain from taking the 1st drink how are you gonna refrain from taking the 2nd one after you’ve become compromised in your judgment due to the 1st 1?
There’s only one truth. But how interesting it is when 2 groups are wrestling with a singular issue calm and how each group looks at that issue and the facts surrounding the issue according to their own preferred outcome?The abortion issue. One person is against it and says that life begins from the very beginning and therefore it shouldn’t be killed. The other side States that life doesn’t start until so many weeks are months in to conception and therefore it is perfectly OK to kill it within that time frame. Now there’s only one truth here there’s not 2. But each side takes a position according to the agenda that it has. Or at least one side does at the very least.
Often times one person will be wrong or both people will be wrong.
A lot of marriages are like 2 whores trying to pick up on each other lol
Should my relationships not go according to plan at some point “May I suffer gracefully!”
If you have to write down the speech involving great sentiment. Just how sincere can it be?
The endless annoyance “of advertising”.
I can be extremely level headed when I put my mind to it and when I’m not trying to put the world off as I have done for the majority of my lifetime.
Mike Tyson says everyone has a plan until they get hit. For many people in intimate relationships nothing could be more true! How many of us go South when the relationship goes South? Infidelity, indifference, negativity, violence… Just stick to the plan until the end.
“Bless those we love and care about LORD! -and that should be everyone in the world!” 🙏🏻
“If there’s any ugliness in you somewhere, somehow -IT WILL EVENTUALLY COME OUT!”
Even though your life wasn’t such a happy one in childhood come you can always tell the stories in such a way that it’s not so grim-tell them to those who yearn to hear your story and you love and they love you most.
Somebody always uends up complaining 1st in a relationship. I refer to it as “somebody always flinches first”.
1) Eliminate what’s wrong!
2) Insert what’s right!
3) See what happens!
4) Identify what remains to be addressed thereafter!
People mistakenly began to come to the conclusion that getting married was a nurse around their neck which was creating a problem for their relationships. So what became commonplace with many people in recent years to skip that formality. That piece of paper isn’t the problem I can tell you that right now! Never was and never will be!But if you’re OK with thinking thinking or in all actuality performing better in a relationship without a formal commitment… just so you know that that piece of paper and that formal commitment are not the issue! Never have been and never will be! Except of course in matters where people rush into relationships and get married when God did not deem that the person for you. Or did not deem you as it being in your best interest to have a partner for life to begin with.We either go after what we think we can get it or what we think we deserve.
If your wife or child have been assaulted or molested, it is not the perpetrator that should be here first and foremost concern!
We either go after what we think we can get it or what we think we deserve! Of course there are always exceptions to this rule! 🤷♂️🤓
Speaking only for myself, before I started drinking, getting drunk was a most unnatural act. But after years of drinking, not being drunk was a most unnatural state. Funny how the body, the mind, of the soul…
Humble people say “that much!” Arrogant people say “Is that all?” Arrogant people say “That much?” Humble people say “That much!”
If you look at a blue ray disk and a blue ray machine or a remote control and a piece of technology or equipment…. Prior to modern day, no one would have ever fathomed something like that. What other matches await us out there that are truly incredible?
Be your self! Make good decisions! 🤷♂️🤷♀️
You got 2 choices in any given situation,: You can have your ego swell or…. You can just enjoy and appreciate it. 🤷♀️🤷♂️
I love famous and powerful people who are humble as h***! 🤷♂️
“WHAT GOD CAN DO!”
If we have the same attitude at work that many of us have in our relationships… If we approached math the way we approach our relationships… No wonder where so…. No wonder we failed so often…
“If people hurt you are you inclined to hurt back?” “I WAS!” 😔
One of the hardest things for people is to expose themselves and to self… To be critical of themselves and be active in doing so. What I mean is doing so seems to go against so many. It seems to go against bringing your best game in order to survive or to thrive. It’s like changing up your best known plan for something that might be better but less familiar in the middle of the Championship-game! Somebody who can do this is a wonderful model because most of us don’t really know what it looks like because most of us don’t really know what it looks like because most of us don’t run into people who do this!🤷♂️🤷♀️
Centrifugal-force or something moving certain direction using gravity shift or a shift against gravity… When a car is making a turn at 90 agrees and there is something in the car….. Except the force of the weight of the item is pulled horizontally instead of vertically. And it is done so with a ascending or descending degree of force per the area of the object. I guess what I’m trying to say is that the item is being pulled or pushed in every part of its molecular structure. Whereas for example when we push something we’ve only got 2 hands on it say when we’re pushing the car out of the road. Antibiotics are a wonderful thing. But the natural defenses of the body are infiber of its being.[inertia?]
If you’re operating or leaning on a certain part of the brain then you lose out on what another part has been gifted with.
Most people who are prey to their issues or overpowered by their issues are weak and likely ignorant we’re lacking in wisdom or experience which could take decades to master them with. And power, power is always needed… Sometimes power is enough but having all the above is best. GOD’S Power and GOD’S insight!
We do it to get on board with God, to get in sync, to align ourselves with him and his being and his plan… Not because he needs our help. We don’t ask GOD… because HE doesn’t know… We ask to show humility and to pay reverence to and acknowledge HIS AWE and our minuteness and need! 🤷♂️🤷♀️
Once you stop being sidetracked or distracted by… in key areas of your being… MAGICAL!
It’s hard for a lot of people to stay on that beam, but some people seem to do it effortlessly.
The people who have a natural disposition towards God-who are least resistant to God’s presence within them… Are both the happiest and most smoothest running as human beings as spiritual beings!
Some people can’t understand why a game is not just a game to some men. Think about it!
I had pride in my dna test. The results I mean. GOD detests pride! Now isn’t it interesting that little-by-little over the last 5 years those results have been teetering in a direction pounding my pride?
I’m in the top 3% in blood type and in intelligence. Coincidence?
When we talk about being resentful we’re not talking about the chair or the tire so much as people.
If there’s one thing I can’t stand it’s people who make light of tragedy especially in the hearing now when it’s occurring. I remember walking into a courtroom where people were chained up-and-down trodden and depressed and afraid and seeing these peodressed very sharply sitting in the chairs at the front of the judges chair and going on to his computer and sitting in his chair when he wasn’t there And joking with one another like this was some kind of a party rather than a place serving punishment.
Certain companies attitudes more and more is like why should we take a back seat, why should they have to say so or why should we respect them along these lines at the expense of our own profit margins? A lot of people in business aren’t interested in any longer and respect for the customer. Or even appreciation for the customer by playing the patch you’re the lackey or showing them any sort of reverence. Companies are becoming more and more about money and about being the ones in power and not being subservient. Companies are no longer not only willing to be subservient, but they’re not even willing to be equals in many cases. They want to have the upper hand financially, want?egotistically… What does any human being operating from the flesh want …???
Don’t make excuses, but when you’ve acted out of turn with someone [near-and-dear]… And you are positive that there’s a significant degree of misconception -that could hurt the relationship… By all means, speak up and clarify.
Don’t stack issues all at once to talk about. Do one; and then another at another time. 🤔 Choose one or the other.
“THINK!” 🤔
“If you can handle things with style; at least handle them with class!”
Well you’re busy cheering on your own team in the playoffs for example… think about the child with cancer or some other terminal illness who is on the other side cheering for their team. A child who could really use a boost at that point in their life! 👍
soap in shower
“insensitivity” I’m still on an adrenaline rush
It serves me well in my writing but not in my relating
Could have handled better with having intimacy and rushing off 4A warm moist wash cloth
Most of us lack considerable hunger for the truth about ourselves -for better or for worse!
Have you ever said to GOD “I am grateful for…”. If the answer is “a resounding “NO””, it could be a real slap in HIS Face! It is so important that we acknowledge each others efforts end place among us. Not the God himself requires anything. Anything other than the fact that he is great and that as with any relationship… Love and respect emanating outwardly towards one another… God loves and respects us always, but not because he is beneath us or even our equal as is the case among one another down here…
Rather than struggle with relationships these days, far too many of us tucktail and turn. I guess another way of putting it is we just blow each other off if we don’t have to deal with one another. That seems to be the arrogant and rather insensitive way of doing things nowadays. I know there’s a lot of people that have blown me off in the past. They’re not sitting there giving careful thought to how the two of us can connect. And in response to this many will come up with a million reasons for why it is justified -BUT REALLY????
If you’re tired your tired, and until you find the underlying reasons… rest is generally the go too. Let me restate that, “if you’re tired you’re tired”. 🤷♂️ And if we don’t eventually address that -we won’t be any good to anyone.
People who make light of everything eventually grow as annoying [and tiresome] as people who “whine and complain about everything”!
Instead of insinuating a person is beneath you by complaining about them as you have often done, try insituating a person is actually a true blessing you are perhaps unworthy of. “ATTITUDE”
Man addresses the issues in his world that either popularize him; that doesn’t cost him too much expense or face; or simply on a whim of his choice. Tackling the real issues in life usually runs counter to all of these above areas man is motivated by or affected by.
Every time a star in the making emerges from a football team for example who is having a stellar season… They split! They will go to a lesser team for more money rather than stay with a better team for less money and win. Don’t give me that c*** about needing to take care of your children. If you’re making millions a dollars they’re taking care of trust me. That’s the game though come how much is enough… what if this happens…
People who stock my pile money have little faith in GOD taking care of them day-to-day.
People on SSI are limited to how much resources they can reserve. Some years ago, the government kept talking about shutting down and putting a stop to social security checks as a first measure rather than putting a stop to people who already are well off being paid in the corporate sector. Why wouldn’t people be stockpiling if they were being threatened with not getting their check numerous times in the span of a year or a year and a 1/2?
Some people just don’t know how to say no [thank you]. They will take whatever you offer them.
80 years ago sports athletes would have paid good money to be out there playing the game. Now they’re out there b******* and threatening not to play because they’re not getting there 20 million that’s so-and-so got! That is not a good sign of The Times!
It’s amazing how different some people’s voices are when speaking versus singing. It’s also amazing how their accent can disappear.
Surround yourself with people who wouldn’t cheat with you on your wife or husband. Someone who helps you to be a better person. Or at the very least, someone will who be there to catch you just in case you have the inkling to fall.
There will never be another 1st for the 2 of you getting to know each other. So take your time and cherish it and take it it all in!
“GOOD ADVICE!” Should always be welcome!
God gives me these key words with nothing else attached to them. I’m guessing they’re just these cornerstones of language that speak to the heart and soul of mankind as well as his endeavors? 🤷♂️🤷♀️
Intelligence IQ versus decision making IQ
Some women detest a man who looks better than they do!
Not everyone touches us -but should we care any less for them than the others who do!? It can be hard to love everyone equally – But the more it comes from the inside rather than the outside, the easier, the more possible it becomes.
Oftentimes, one man can reach another man where or when GOD can’t -or GOD uses that other man to reach him. TYTYTY 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sometimes we want to prepare the people around us for something inside of us that may never come. And if this becomes a habit… 🤷♂️🤷♀️
Worry about the rest of the world or don’t worry about the rest of the worldz but just keep on putting out as much light as you can through it all! 🤷♀️🤷♂️
Whether they are or not we often see our new relationships is perfect-and we don’t want that to end exclamation pobut in most cases eventually the reality will set in. There’s nothing wrong with that though. Little piece of advice : It’s not perfection we should be looking for in the relationship; but perfection within ourselves we should be striving for!
It’s better to say too little than to say too much!
Conservation of energy.
Being too kind beats being too unkind any day!
Sometimes a short memory is the best thing in the world!
Some people don’t have an aggressive bone in their body. Some people can’t relate to that. Some people even disagree with it.
White lion, when the children cry, heaven isn’t too far away, Frank in the knockouts… Don’t forget me when I’m gone. Poison, motley Crue going home. Frankie goes to Hollywood. Atlanta rhythm section and firefall.
When we’re kids we want to be adults; when we’re adults who want to be kids; when we’re old we want to be young!
When were young we have the time and the energy but not the money. When we’re middle aged we have the money and the energy but not the time. When we’re also we have the time and the money but not the energy.
You definitely want to be a victim and not the perpetrator in certain situations!
Immature or selfish [self-centered] or arrogant or fearful.
All those women I pushed away or turned off… I’m beginning to think that wasn’t such a bad plan after all for their sake. When women meet a man they really like and things either don’t go well or there simply is no opportunity… That man lingers in a woman’s heart or can linger in a woman’s heart for a very long time thereafter.
The more upkeep we perform on a car including scheduled maintenance and preventative maintenance… The more likely it will function as it was intended and the more likely it will not break down unexpectedly. Same thing without human beings. But how many of us ever really treat our cars that way let alone ourselves?
The things certain men are able to do to a woman emotionally…. And then have not the slightest idea or care in the world for following through afterwards.
You going from A to Z inside rather than going from a-z outside is the most incredible journey or Rush of all!
“We’re being constantly bombarded by other men’s “new ideas”!” F/T!!! 🤷♂️🤷♀️
There’s almost always one choice of play on the court that is a winner.. Usually when you pick 1 of 2 teams, one you have a better chance of beating the other regardless of the spread or prediction. Picking that team is key. Picking the right team for that day is key. Not that you have a choice but…
FACEBOOK GOD: “Since there is no normal [anymore], let’s just run around being whatever it is we happen to be [that day]! THIS IS ALL WRONG! It’s a ploy designed for all of us to become more and more delusional and dissillusional and lost! What’s normal is what GOD teaches us! Honestly, how many of you would have a problem with teaching your children about love and accountability and kindness and thoughtfulness towards their own children? To be responsible and practical in the highest form possible? To respect your partners and your children on the highest levels! This is what normal is! And there are many more principles!”* 🙏🏻💕

FACEBOOK “OK -At some point in our lives “the adult” which is the prevailing entity throughout our lives… Speaking in terms of time in the lifespan; Must become stronger than “the child” and “the parent”! The child is inexperienced, and therefore reckless; and the parent is prone to being ‘overly sympathetic and loving’ towards the child.”*
* This is where Fathers [often] become such a vital component in their child’s development.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆”Innocence” of sex or without it Sex has been such a troublesome and prevailing theme in my life! Have to get the animosity on the fire out of the way if you are going to be one of those people that is a hub or an intricate part of other people’s lives.
FACEBOOK “It has been stated that since the “Advent of Television”, America would never again accept a President in a wheelchair. “I WOULD!” I would accept a donkey, [or an elephant lol], a quadriplegic or even a septupleplegic! IF ONLY THEY COULD [WOULD (<-notice not reversed “would/could”)] DO THE JOB! 👍A huge part of the problem in this country is that we are separated into factions; and we have too little love for our fellow man as a-whole! And these factions by numerous means attempt to manipulate (the truth, the facts to their own ends) by bribe or by threat the power of the office of P.O.T.U.S! It’s enough!!!!!!!!!!! After 248 years 🤔 don’t you think that we would have learned how to work together as one country under one party; rather than two parties being torn apart [by a third?] more and more as time goes on????? GEEEEEZ!!!!!!!!”* 🤷♀️🤷♂️

“””””WORDS””””” 👍👍👍👍👍
Animosity, take the bite out of…; some people are a blessing and a gift and it’s up to us to rise up to the status of… and not to pretend Has it so often the case with ignorance of self and ego, that they’re not good enough for us because something inside of “us” isn’t quite right!
America once epitomized fear of GOD and the highest values. People looked up to us and paid attention. This country seems to be taking the world in a different direction!
What’s the difference between the truth and a fact?
Women who fall from men’s b******* and suckers who fall for the con artist BS and the average American citizen who falls for the politicians rhetoric…. Are we not at fault 2? Are we not acting according to our own agendas? Think about the guy who’s trying to sell you a gold watch for $50 how hes looking at you thinking here I am homeless and hustling on the street and this guy wants to give me $50 for a $500 watch? Shame on him! But anyways think about it, in every one of these situations, we are making ourselves vulnerable because we want something for nothing.
Is it a win if you lose 3000 men to take a hill guarded by 300 men?
FACEBOOK “I don’t know much about relationships, but this much I do know; you better come with your own supplies and get rid of any excess luggage lol Relationships don’t work too well when we try to live off of someone else’s supplies [physical, emotional, psychologica, spiritual]; And they really start going downhill when we begin to demand our [fare lol] fair share of their own. It’s best not to rely too much on the other person nor to spend too much time focusing on what they’re doing and what they’re not doing. For some of you out there this may seem a little strange. It certainly hasn’t been my idea of a relationship for the longest time. But one thing I can’t argue is the fact that -this seems to work better/best!” 🤔🤷♂️
You don’t have to worry about something you don’t want to happen if it’s not God’s will -because it aint going to happen! 🤷♂️ You don’t have to worry about something not happening you want to happen if it’s God’s will -because it’s going to happen! 🤷♂️
My aunt told me years ago that God only has 3 answers: yes, no, later. It’s always best to ask for things from God hes inclined to say yes to! That is if you don’t like hearing no or later lol
You don’t have to “officialize” everything!
The thing about beautiful relationships, will there be relationships between men and between men and men, friendships between women and women… any sort of relationship.. It’s 1st and foremost that there is a love that exists within each of these individuals emanating outward towards one another. That and respect! Not necessarily the kind that is earned but the kind that comes from within our own humanity emanating outward towards humanity!
The world would be 90% better if one word and 1 word or principle alone was abided by: “R.E.S.P.E.C.T.”
Animosity in relationships…
The most interesting buffoon in the world?
There are high concussion explosions and there are low concussion explosions. I think they found this app testing for the atomic bomb. They certainly utilized it. Same holds true with regard to…
FACEBOOK “Several things helped me immensely in reshaping my attitudes and beliefs. “Better to believe there is a GOD and discover there isn’t one; then to disbelieve in GOD; and discover there is one.” “GOD’S not responsible for all the problems in the world, man is! I’m mean even if GOD did wave his “magic-wand” and made all the troubles of the world go away… We would only end up right back where we started -because man’s heart would not have changed one bit! “How do you know GOD isn’t sending help to his people -and satan, or man himself isn’t interfering, or taking those blessings?” “I’m not responsible for what other people are I’m only responsible for what I am!””
Being smart or savvy gets you one thing. Being intelligent gets you another thing. Being wise gets you another thing. Being spiritually fit gets you another thing still. And being dumb gets you something even stiller!
Think about it calm or every time you refrain from picking up a cigarette or from eating a most unhealthy meal… we’re going out for a night on the town and getting drunk.. We’re taking those pills… God doesn’t know the difference between a person taking medication prescribed by a doctor and medication being taken abusive way to block out god’s wondrous Universe with all its consequences… the point is that we are not inhibited spiritually when we take medication -That has been properly prescribed by a physician versus medication we are abusing.
When I decided to get on antique a presence God told me that if I was not working my program to the best of my ability, taking any kind of medication was [legalized) using all over again!
How many times have I seen players in professional sports watching in awe rather than doing their job. I used to see this with defensive players and Michael Jordan all the time. It’s like they also wanted to see the play reach its fruition by Michael lol
I should have bet that horse back in 2000… I would have but we were out about all that long me and my brother.
