WHAT THE “F” IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE

Many people in this country are in absolute denial look denial about the fact the fact that the more one person takes away fix away the less there is for another.

If you are at a birthday party with 20 other people and one guy decides hes gonna take 7/8ths of the birthday cake and eat it for himself and an 1/8th is left for the remaining the remaining 20 people…. Same thing with our resource base on this planet -and it is “OUR” resource-based as far as I know! Same thing with the economic system and money in this country… And last time I checked we did not have an unlimited resource-base on this planet. But none of us has (free) access to resources on this planet. It’s all controlled (just like the land in this country -there’s tons of it everywhere and people who are born on North-American soil in some cases haven’t got a pot to pass in!

Distribution of fine metals around the globe:

•I believe there is a reason beyond the simple access and availability of fine metals on this planet for our own use – I believe they play a role in the balance, in numerous ways, of/on this planet.

•Have we developed some kind of an X-ray machine that can detect find metals all around the globe yet? They’re still gonna be tons of gold laying around on this planet somewhere calm, diamonds…

The more materialistic we become, the more our population increases, the more we ravage the materials on this planet -and the more (air) pollution and waste we will accumulate.*

*By the way, why aren’t we doing anything to restrict the carbon monoxide going into our atmosphere which is destroying the ozone and heating up this planet? Has it been decided that it’s too late to do anything about it? And a handful of elite people will go into some spaceship or go underground with some spaceship are going to ground while the rest of us develop various skin cancers and watch our planet die out on the surface?**

**And what of the wildlife and sea creatures which are being ravaged more and more more everyday – Man we’ll just continue to do so in the name of survival until everything’s gone and yeah so everything’s gone and then he dies last is at the plan?***

***The rain forests are being ravaged daily -Do you have any idea how much paper I throw away in myesterday in my mailbox every week? Most of which goes to the city dump as far as I know? All in the name of Commerce and profit? Credit card and loan companies continually harassing me -ads…

We had an opportunity in the seventies to install carburetors on cars that will consume far less gas and I’m assuming pump far less pollutants into the atmosphere. But the A-rabs wanted nothing to do with it -How long did we honestly believe we could get away with what we were doing? Did anyone ever bother to give that any real thought? You thought the planet was too big to harm? Well I don’t look so big now! As I’ve said many times before “The hardest truth for a man to believe is the one he doesn’t want to believe is true – While the easiest lie to believe is the one he wants to believe is true!

Women for example, fall for the charm of men of ill-repute all the time -because they want so badly for it to be true. Conmen out to convince people of an easy buck… spend this much and get this much back….. People want so badly to believe that it’s true, they fall for it. All based on self.

The idea that our way of life in this country has something to do with the problems and it never occurs to certain people. And in some instances people will vigorously deny there is. They want to protect our way of life -or theirs to be more frank.

SPLIT-PERSONALITY 🥴

As a friend of mine would say in meetings in Alcoholics Anonymous, “Damn people at home squeeze the toothpaste from the wrong end and put the toilet paper on backwards-and it’s-and I live alone!”

I’ve got hundreds of movie that I picked out myself – And I have to pick through 10 or 20 of them to find the one I wanna watch lol 🤷‍♂️

Another friend of mine and the program would say “Keep your thoughts higher than your thinking” 🤓

I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES

Did I ever tell you about the time I went to the group grocery store to get some food I’m food and saw my neighbor working over there in the produce department And thought I’d get him a Box of corn dogs. It was 4.99 for the 16 and 8.94 for the 30 🤔 looking back. There was no price on the shelf where the large Box was so I asked one of the clerks. In the back of my mind I was hoping to save a little money on the deal. They said it was 8.94. So I went up there grudgingly with my groceries and the Box of corn dogs… For some reason at the register they wouldn’t scan so the cashier gave them to me for 4-bucks. Once again, Thank You Lord 🙏

Another time I lost a piece of the attachment that attaches to the kitchen faucet I had bought a couple of years earlier @ Wally-world. The one where you can make the water come out sprinkling or in a steady stream… I couldn’t find the piece that screwed on to the end of the faucet. First I went to Walmart and they didn’t have them. So then I went to Lowe’s and they had one but it was too much money. I had a young guy helping me and I told him all I needed was the part that screws on to the end of the faucet thread – He opened up the box on the spot, pulled apart the whole thing – and gave me the part I needed. WOW! That’s not exactly how it went -the exact story was even better than that -but I just can’t remember all the details. 🤷‍♂️ But that was more or less the gist of it.

WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM

I don’t have a problem with people in Alcoholics Anonymous who have problems. Hell I’ve got problems my damn self. I have problems with people in Alcoholics Anonymous who try and make it look like I’m the one with the problem -when in fact there the one with the problem. I talk program! The only problem is 🤔 a lot of it’s not in the book – Because as Bill W. so quaintly put it, “More will be revealed”. And that just so happens to be the case in my case -along with many others who have been around the rooms.

ONCE AN OPPORTUNIST…

Some people simply do not want to live a life of servitude -real or in their own mind. So, we all have a choice; live better than alot of others do (and possibly take from the mouth of another and their family in the process) or not.

From a spiritual perspective some would say that those who live a life of of excess have little or no Faith that God will provide for them day-to-day. Alot of people live by the philosophy that:

•I had to do everything for myself -so let other people do for themselves

These people have little or no conception regarding how blessed they are and the idea of passing it on. Furthermore, Too much is never enough in their own mind! The sky could fall tomorrow 🤔, or they may need open-heart surgery next week… or their grandchild could get sick…

I myself have a bad habit of stockpiling stockpiling food in the fridge and leaving it in there even though some of it goes bad. The illusion that there’s plenty of food in the refrigerator… 🤷‍♂️

Some people never learn to say no. And some people never learn to say no thank you.

IN THAT CASE

Would it really make that much of a difference if you lived somewhere else -I mean in your particular case? I’m not sure how much of a difference moving elsewhere (back to Cali for example) would make in my particular case. That’s why I ask 🥱

What if somebody wants to die? What if somebody wants to go to prison? Then it’s not really a punishment is it 😄

Like when you want to tell a defiant child to brush their teets -you tell them not to, right? Riiiiiight… 🤔

If sex is not allowed in the prison system -then where do you put gay offenders? Putting a gay man in a male prison system is like putting a straight man in a female prison system! Putting a gay woman in a female prison system is like putting a straight woman in a male prison system.

FOREVER YOUNG

When we’re younger we want to be older; when we’re older we want to be younger 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Some of us from a very young age become mindful of their latter years, financially, physically… the whole she-bang! I for one, never gave much thought to preparing for my latter years. Maybe I never thought I’d live that long -maybe I didn’t care -maybe I didn’t know how -maybe I never cared to learn? But, while some people take care of themselves so their quality of life is extended, they, in many instances suffer a similar fate as their peers -only later in life (postponed suffering).
