Introduction

I have had a lot of experience in being in the mental health system, learning things whether I needed to or not. That includes having therapists, many of them, both in offices but also where I lived, and "groups" at mental hospitals being taught by counselors there. As well as in attendance at PSR programs, all places where psychology is taught, in that it's attendants learn the wisdom of peace and a preferable mentality regarding any given thing. And more than that I had been taught these things in group homes. A psychologist teaches lessons based on mental well being in these places and I a place like a group home, even tediously. I would wake up I the morning and attend these "groups" for five hours a day. And I've lived in two group homes. So I have a lot to offer, as I paid attention, as I was taught by very bright minds.

And I am a person that has read a lot of self help books, books of clarity, books that teach mental well being in so many different ways. I took into account how much I would have to say on this topic (spiritual healing) and found that I had very much to say, certainly enough to fill a small book. So this is what that book will be about.

So this will be the spiritual side of Crazyism, as every religion should have some spiritual basis behind it. The first book was more an observation of the mental health system and my experience regarding it, and presented it as a possible religion. The next book (which will actually be the first) was the one o wanted to create last, as I need more time to think about it. That book will do its best to provide mentally ill people with a very tangible and useful religion that will improve their lives.. establishing a like minded group who has a religious system of their very own. To bring us together.

This book can be read in any order. It doesn't have to be read from beginning to end.

This book is entirely in public domain.

(End of introduction.)

Having a Purpose

As far as having a purpose in life and working on it, I have to put that at the top of all lists when it comes to mental well being and stability. No doubt having a purpose is the best thing you could do for yourself and I'll tell you why:

Having a purpose provides focus

A person either wakes up I the morning and goes straight to entertaining themselves the best they are able. If they've become good at anything, it us wanting to watch whatever is placed before them. These kinds of people have longer days, feeling as though there is so little to do. But those who get up early to work on something, whatever that work may be, have a day that just glides by. They always know what to do. And when the work day regarding it us over, they are more able to enjoy something else simply because it was held back. Those that have a purpose have something to do day by day.

Having a purpose increases pride

By working on something every day you have at heart the potential that can come from it. You know that whether or not you will succeed that at least you've tried and are doing all you can. You can know that good may come of it. You can know that you have accomplished a lot, inasmuch as you have. And you can see yourself a little better than you would know yourself as a person doing really little or nothing for his or her life. You can have something to both say and know regarding all of your efforts and what may come of them.

Increases self worth

A person that has done nothing to earn anything feels less deserving. But those who work have received rewards, rewards that they have earned. What they created or have done represents themselves. And that pays off. They are themselves valuable, both to themselves and others. They feel needed, and are. They have given things, are a gift unto themselves.

Gives you direction

Some don't know what the next day will be like. They really do not have any idea. But those with a purpose know that tomorrow and the next day will involve a continued work on any given thing, according to their choices, and their future plans are more tangible. It's either find a hundred ways of doing nothing or find a few that get good things done. And work will reward you, but doing nothing will do nothing good for you, in fact it often puts you in other's debt.

Having a purpose is like an extension of yourself. Another part of yourself, a better part of yourself. You are more than one person that way. You have a better half that way, it represents you well and us a thing that shines, and us a thing that others value and appreciate. Those that need you, respect you. Those whose daughter's or sons work, makes a parent proud. But it is very shameful to be a son or daughter who doesn't. By working, and simply by working alone, stability comes. You won't be homeless as long as you can find a job. Given enough effort a job is easily found.

And there is an income "professional" side to this. But also a part time project. That in your free time something is being created, as with some a book, with others music, for some it is wood working. For others it is paid. For some it is programming a software or game. For others it may be working on electronics. Whatever it is, there are many, many, many choices. And fortunately there is internet available that can teach you anything you desire to learn- the sky's the limit.

I would say toward creative projects that you create a routine and keep to it. Because a small break has a way of becoming much longer than was originally intended. Sometimes people even refuse to continue any further. At that point only a very good spark could start you back up. Then tell yourself, you have got to continue. Because if you don't, you may have extended a finishing time of a month into several. As for me, I took a two month break from writing recently. That's just what happened to me. But thankfully I don't have anything else I'd rather do. I just get too bored with other things.

Meditation

I'm so much into blank-minded meditation than meditation done with thoughts. To think about something I own in my cabinet, to think about my possessions makes me feel good sometimes, especially if they are new. I have this.. I have that.. can be thoughts of satisfaction and feeling whole.

Or sometimes there are people who compliment you just the right way. When someone does that thought can resurface many times, no less satisfactory than when it was when first spoken.

And some meditation can involve understanding things through a score of different perspectives. This could be just to have a better overall understanding, or thoughts of oneself that only music and movies could provide, as you are observed the them.

And the fourth kind I have to list here is visualization. That doesn't have to be so plane as lying on a beach! It is better with greater and broader imagination. If you are doing it right those thoughts would feel special, as no words could describe. Metaphors are abundant in it, one thing can have multiple meanings, and so the thoughts flow. Some prefer classical music to accompany it. Some works good that way, too. But personally my best music for it comes from movie soundtracks, video game soundtracks, the kind that has left behind the markedly atonal music of the early 20th century.

And sometimes it is just good vibes. To reflect on any given thing. These thoughts kind of just sprout up out of nowhere but can be thought of sometime afterward. That includes any thing that simply makes you feel good about your life.

Having Gratitude/ Counting your Blessings

It's a somewhat new thing taught by psychologists. And one of the most common things they teach. Gratitude, that you are thankful and appreciate all the things in your life. And that makes a lot of sense. After all, a life could be very good indeed, but without appreciation, it means nothing. Like having a pack of gold but regarding it as just pennies in a bag.

Its good to wake up in the morning and to go over a list of good things to come that day. First, you will acknowledge them better when they do occur, second, you will be looking for them to begin with, including things you may not have considered otherwise.

Be it material possessions or relationships, opportunities or something fun or entertaining, let us identify them and embrace them, as tightly as could be. And dispel with the negative as much as it could be, changing it into something good as far as we are able, and let us magnify all the good in our lives.

And to see the silver lining in the cloud. Very little on Earth is purely bad. A big ugly St could have a little gem in it, an oyster has a pearl. A rose has a thorn. Some food looks delicious, but it is poisoning. Some food looks nasty but is healthy. In fact that is often the case. Sweet and sour can be enjoying together, and given things as bitter as coffee and chocolate, with a little sugar they are the best of all foods. So if you have salt, dash it on top, and your food will be better enjoyed.

Be aware that nothing is perfect. If you can't have the thing you love, love the thing you have. Things are never so black and white on Earth. Some see only in terms of it, though, when, after opening their hearts can be quite astonished, as a whole new world is seen, where the bad is so menial, and the good shines forth brighter than the sun.

Always give yourself some breathing room or else you will suffocate.

Enjoying Life

There was a group of friends. As soon as they got more used to each other, they soon enough became openly blatant toward each other. Then there was this guy that changed his friends like he changed his clothing. And soon the whole town knew his name.

Some of the most simple things make life the best it can be. That includes good food before you, music, choice entertainment, and comfort. Having a good chair makes a big difference in life, as does a good bed and pillow. To have at least a little money each day, and buy something sweet regularly.

To make life better, fill it with good, as you define goodness to be. Bring those things in as much as you are able. Remove any bad thing from you. Stuff it with all the things you most desire and cherish.

Don't be another's pawn. But go about your daily life only engaging in things that do you good. And if someone among you is hateful, strongly and strictly strip him or her from you. Have friends that make life better, if any at all.

Have a purpose as I've mentioned before. Because leisure time just doesn't exist without it. People on any vacation eventually get so bored that they become homesick. There are many places from City to city. A bigger city has more choices for you. A better town may be needed, a better job, better friends, better entertainment, better food, and always strive to make better and better, and accept no step backward or inactivity, for all sake of life improving daily.

Try to get the best out of life. Few are those that have done so. But people have a choice before them. That things either remain just the same or that things will be changed for them in such a way as to impart wealth, fame, and notoriety. They will cause the most change. They will accept no failure. They will live to compete with the greatest of people and find themselves equal to them, or even rise high above them.

Things to do if you are bored

Remembering that a lot of boredom just comes from the inability to do something at any given time, a kind of refusal to, being bored can be undone just by choosing to do something. It doesn't have a to be something toilsome and time consuming. In fact here are twelve things you can do at any time, that are each done in fifteen minutes or less. However if you wish, you can do these for a longer period.

Exercise

It can be as simple as walking twice around the block, or running in place, doing sit ups, or pull ups. And doing so just once a day makes a difference.

Writing Music

If you know how to write music then you could create a page or two at any time. You could work on a song here and there.

Writing a Letter

You could write a letter to your family or friends. You could spruce it up with stickers, can include something flat that is easily shipped, use color pens, just have a lot of fun doing so. Or you could just send out a brief letter or post card!

Writing anything else

You could write a poem. Or you could write a little essay. You could brain storm on paper. You could write your plans, your goals. Or, like a favorite thing for many people, you could write down you budgeting, what you plan to buy with available money that you have now or will soon get.

Drawing

Take a piece of paper and draw something. If it's a good drawing you could frame it. Or, if you like, just carefully put it aside. You could give it to a friend, or just tack it on the way.

Organize your things

You could wash and hang your clothes. You could go through your possessions, as you may have forgotten about them. And you could make your closet and cabinets more neatly organized.

Cleaning

You could clean yourself by taking a shower, or just wash your face or feet. Also, you could clean some dishes, the floor, or any other area. Pick up trash, or clean the bathroom.

Just laying down a moment

You could take a fifteen minute nap. You can use that time to think to yourself, about priorities, for greater perspective, or just to unwind.

Play a leisurely game

There are video games that take days or months to beat. If you don't feel like being that committed, you could play a more leisurely game, one that takes only fifteen minutes or so to beat. That includes sports games, puzzle game, board and car games, or just casino games, and sometimes racing games.

Learn about something

Just ask yourself what do you want to know. Go online, and find out. Learn a lesson that is quickly leaned, whatever that may be. If you don't know how something works, how something is done, why something is, etc., you could put your wonder aside and learn once and for all these things.

Work on a creative project

Just to start or continue. Maybe eventually it would result in something good. So to have a creative project of any kind, piece by piece, until complete. And maybe you'll have come up with better ways meantime.

Do a little thinking

Simply sit down and think for ten or so minutes. About the things you like, the good things in life. The way things are going. Your family, your friends, about your future, about your past, or whatever it may be, about any positive thing.

And there are some things that you can simply sit and wait for. That you could keep in heart throughout the day. This is best done just by realizing, the future is getting better all the time and you have a lot to count on. And having new things come forth with anticipation.

Waiting peacefully for..

New things

New scientific breakthroughs. New technology. Highly improved old technology. The things to come. What is just around the corner. Knowing that any day an amazing new thing could come along. Older things becoming cheaper. Newer tech gradually dropping in price, yet becoming better. Things such as new highly advanced AI. A better 3D printer. A price reduction in them. Just choose what you would like to see come about or improve, keep in touch with it through the news and internet based information and one day you will see it come about.

Desired things

Desired changes

These could be political changes that conform to your wishes. It could be a criminal getting his or her due in court. It could be higher minimum wage. It a positive change at work, along with a raise. Could be a desired change in public policies. Or music becoming better. It could be anything that would open up new doors for you, or it could be legalization of Marijuana, Universal Basic Income implemented, and any world changing thing for the better.

A better life

An upcoming better home, one far better than before. Successes, being popular, being paid well, having a better job. Getting married. Forming a family. Having a really good meal at a restaurant on, say, Friday. The weekend. Time off. Vacationing. The trip there. At a bar, at a park, at a sporting event. Anything that makes life better at the moment and the anticipation leading up to it.

Reduced human suffering

Seeing the poor get the help they need. Seeing new medical breakthroughs. Waiting on the science and technology that will make lives better. Better conditions for all. Projects underway that will help the poor, the homeless, the starving, and seeing them done with vigor and followed to the end. Any instance of the weak and destitute coming out of it with help from individuals and the government.

Anything exiting

An upcoming trip.. to an amusement park, a foreign city.. to the mountains.. to a fishing area.. to a cabin, wherever it may be. And also of an upcoming birthday, Christmas, or other Holliday. The weekend. A new job. Money coming in. Visiting a friend. Going on a date. A friend visiting you. Even going to the library or a nice place in town.

Income, money

When you get paid there is a lot more you can do. Having worked and then being at work to pick up your check can be very exiting. The places you can go afterward are very many. Whether it's a large or small store, a neat place around the corner, a movie theater, a restaurant, or a flea market, try not to spend it all in one place.

The afterlife

Sure death is scary. But only after death can we actually see if anything is after it. I mean, that has got to be the biggest surprise for those that die just to find life again. We can't know until that is so.

Better conditions

A city made safer. A city built upon, adding to it luxurious places accessible to all. Having a new and better home. Getting a lot of food when the money for it comes. A better library. A better society. Better weather, the spring or summer time.

New Movies, Books, Video Games, Entertainment

More than anything people look forward to these. To see a great movie and wait for the sequel or the same with your book in a series you like. And all kinds of new video games, as well a favorite series and it's next game. But also with video games the retro gamer getting all new stuff as old things are being brought back like never before. Or maybe you have a favorite magician and they are coming out with a new song.

So this goes to show you that you have a lot to look forward to. There is always something to anticipate and anticipation makes their actuality even better!

Treasures of the Earth

I have here a list of things that you can find in the world fairly easily, especially if you live in a big city. As they say "the world is your oyster."

Music Concerts

Whether you want to attend a major concert with the most popular modern musicians or just a smaller concert, or to see a very small jazz concert or a small or large classical concert (of music from such composers as Mozart or Beethoven) sometimes you can do so for free. I came to San Francisco years ago and a friend recently took me to a church in town that has in it classical music concerts once a week, at no cost. And one day I found a book store had jazz concerts in it every now and then. Then too in town at The Fisherman's Warf you can find musicians at every corner on the street. When I was homeless that was all the music I could get.

Book Stores

Books really can and truly be a dime a dozen. Maybe not precisely. Maybe a dollar each. The library will sell them just to get rid of overstock. They don't care so much about profit in that regard. Before you go to a library just have in mind what you want and need. But fortunately they are stores that let you browse through them for awhile. Some even have seats for you. No telling what you'll find. Books are without count. There is a lot there to pick from. Or if you like, just get the best seller.

Collectables

These include comic books, action figures, old and new video games, books, music, old technology, kinds of clothing, antiques, coins, stamps, old cars if you are wealthy, and many other things. For each there is a store, as well as for some of these found together. They can be very inviting for nostalgic people who want to have the things they loved as a child, now an adult, with money. And there is so much there. It gives you very many options, in that variety. So it can be fun sorting the them finding the best, say, comic book or old game, or a specific sports card that you want to add to your collection.

Movies

Going to a theater is so much better than seeing it on a TV. That screen is huge. There are better seats. And there is a soda fountain right there. The visuals are far larger and the sound booms toward you. And you get to see them sooner instead of waiting for it to come into your home. It's no wonder why so many go to the theater so often.

Arcades

Arcades may have decreased in popularity but they are still around. At The Fisherman's Warf there is an arcade building filled with many of the older machines, all fully restored, a nice selection. And a few blocks from there are also new arcade machines in a nearby building. In hotels there are often places with arcade machines sitting nearby. Often in restaurants too. In fact if it has one I'm more likely to eat or stay there. It may take a lot of quarters to beat the game entirely, but it's worth it, if the game is good and easy enough on you.

Large stores

I didn't make a budget last month. I really didn't have my mind on my money like I normally do. Pay day came. I decided to go into a large store for one thing. And decided to spend a lot more just from seeing everything before me. That made me feel like, well, I want this.. I want that.. I'll take this.. I'll ignore that. It was a much better way to buy things. And I think I'll shop that way from now on. They are just so much better to be in if you don't know exactly what you want, as a list, but instead to take a look at and buy haphazardly.

Pawn Shops

I used to live in a city that had the biggest pawn shop in all of the state of New Mexico. It was a great place to shop. You could find old games, leather jackets, musical instruments, display swords, music CDs, cassettes, DVDs, ,all kinds of things. But I wouldn't recommend you pawn your things, as I used to, so much that I didn't have anything.

Second hand stores

Goodwill is where things get very cheap. They aren't after mega optimal- profit. They want to pass things through and have good prices for poor people, those who are more likely to shop there. I got a great over coat there, one that goes down to my knees, a many pocketed coat. And I got very cheap video gaming gear there, often. And a Mickey Mouse cup. A Halloween pumpkin bucket, just as I like. With Goodwill the inventory changes quickly and fully. So going in can always be a surprise. Most of these things apply to other second hand store too, like the Salvation Army, more or less.

Gaming places

I hope that video game competitions become a popular sport someday. Whether in a kind of bar or building, or on TV, and hopefully both. But I'll include in this list regular sporting events, be they in large or small scale, be it baseball, football, boxing, or Nascar, even a martial arts competitions.

Bars

Simply put, bars are for people who want go get laid. And as far as the simplicity of that comes about, bars are perfect for it. They have choice alcohol and good music. They are more suitable for socially shy people, as nothing stops that more than drunkenness, even light drunkenness.

Restaurants

I would suggest trying out a few to decide the one you like the most. Whatever price that may be, adjusted by your income. But most of all just in relation to your food tastes, finding the place with the best menu. But also convenience comes into play. I go to a pizza place that is close to the place I pick up my pay check. Fast food is good food too, and is more for quick, more for informal circumstances.

Religious places

If you like any Religion and wish to learn about it or share it's practice among others than they are a good commitment. So long as it's leader is not a corrupt person and that place doesn't rob, manipulate, or control you. Otherwise just look for the best fit, according to your heart.

Goddesses and Gods of Peace

Athena- Wisdom, handicraft, warfare, proprietor of peace. Greek. Often depicted with a helmet and holding a spear. Female.

Concordia- Agreement in marriage and society. Proprietor of state societies. Often depicted with a long cloak and sacrificial bowl. Female.

Eirene- Personification of peace. Depicted with a cornucopia, scepter, and torch. Female.

Pax- A Goddess of peace. Roman. Depicted with an olive branch, cornucopia, scepter.

Tranquillitas- Tranquility, security, calmness, and peace. Roman. Depicted with a modius, rudder, and ears of grain. Female.

Wohpe- "Spirit of peace," Gives people a pipe as a symbol of peace. Often associated with falling stars. Female.

Forseti- Norse god of justice and conciliation leading to peace.

Who has the remedy?

For greater employment- A teacher has your remedy. She or he can teach you in a college setting. If you set forth to get a high demand Jo you could fit yourself into some mega bucks, having a job better than those relegated to educate drop outs.

For greater entertainment- Maybe a movie theater is your remedy. Or maybe you need a digital movie. Maybe a video game? One either cheap like a regular LCD game? Or maybe you need a heavier dose of medicine with a much more expensive device. For some it is just a pen and paper. For others, a good new TV is the perfect remedy. And stores are built around them. Make your own prescription and give it to the clerk in the electronics department. Go to the book seller. He may have something for you there.

For the hungry- there are many doctors to tend to this. They are ready and willing to serve you a good meal and your hunger will be gone. And it is medicine much cheaper than other kinds of medicine, like prescription pills. It tastes better too. And brings about a very peacefully satisfied stomach and gives comfort to the soul.

For the bored- Too much free time is meaningless, without value. But with work on one hand and leisure on the other you will never get bored. Go to an employer. He may have a remedy for you. There are things that s/he cannot or will not do. S/he will agree to give you money for doing those things. An author may have already created a perfect remedy for your boredom. S/he's written a wonderful story for you. Believe it or not it is rested on a shelf in your home as I speak. Then their were all kinds of guys who made multi million dollar movies, contained in a disk. And as we speak several thousand people are uploading videos who whole heartedly want them to be seen.

For financial security- Once again an employer has the remedy as often as s/he does. But so too is there a deeper more effective remedy residing in your mind. You've just got to discover it. One great idea can make you rich. The only problem is, only so many people can use the same remedy. Sometimes only one person can! So dig deep for ideas that would make you rich.

For protection- A person who has the sickness of being harassed and dealt much harm may go to the police to remedy the situation. Just make sure the cause is valid. As they are like doctors that can only remedy certain situations. A big friend can be a good help. A security guard can fix many instances of theft. And a security camera and things like bars can assure bodily safety. So don't let harm hit you, fix it before it could happen.

For love- Maybe you need the therapy to say what you want. Ask out person after person until someone says "yes" could take days. Could just take an hour. Or you could go to a bar, a dance, any number of social places. Money may fix the problem. Lots of it. A good job. A well kempt appearance. These things are the hospital clothes for the love sick.

For lust- Bars are the right place with all the medicine these people need right before them. If it is legal in your area, get a prostitute. Or you can fix the dilemma operating with your hand. Many are good at such operations, and may perform them daily. And if you don't have lust to begin with, a doctor may be able to fix that. S/he can give you "lust in a pill." After all, we all cherish it! But that form of gold doesn't come cheap.

For stress- Well if you are stressed out you can take a very complex prescription to fix it, as long as you truly qualify, or sometimes when you don't, and you have other possible options, such as marijuana and alcohol. Some of these medicines are readily available. Others, not at all. Have some dummy do the work for you. Or a complicated electronic device that can multiply anything. Or a grammar fixing software. As these are the solutions to the intelligence we lack.

For purpose- If you don't know what to do or when why and how to do it then look for examples of those who had succeeded before, and mimic them, or do them yet better. Because what came from success may be pulled forth by any other doing the same thing. Tried and true methods often yield the same result. Be taught by the best of them and come into a better life by their example. But know that the most successful people have been the origin of the newest and best things, while those that followed usually was considered lower than the one who originated something. And maybe that's the way it should be.

For wealth- Maybe all you need is to gamble. But only a little. Although only a little, regularly. The odds are against you initially. But over the time of years those odds have greatly decreased. Just like my aunt. She'd buy cards here and there, a couple each day a few bucks a day. It seemed like every few years she'd get a couple thousand dollars.

For understanding- Any good thing a psychologist could say could certainly be of good help. As are self helping books. And ones own perspective mastery. To see the eyes of another, to have a broad but tangible, correlative, reciprocal, and cognate understanding of the world around you will serve you best in life.

For enjoyment in life I would suggest bringing in the good and throwing out the bad. To treat poison for what it is. To treat all good things for the good that they are, as things cherish. And my formula is as simple as that: look for good things. Pull them in and keep them. Identify bad things and remove them. Look for the good, have it your own, and treat your life and the things within it as highly sacred things. Let no person obstruct the quality of your life, inasmuch as you have control to make your life a good one, have it be made so.

Perfect Friendship

Most of all a best friends comes solely from one other person. And that person can be your love mate, your sexual partner, or if you haven't one, then simply one good friend you spend most if your time with. "Fitting in" is a group thing. And those trying for several such friends haven't any one in particular, and has a lesser connection to them than they would with one person. And I speak with experience with this and really all of that is easily understood. I had a few good friends here and there but unfortunately id forsake them for one group or another. But my best friends were often my girlfriend's. When I was 16 I was fortunate to have my girlfriend live with me, as both of our parents agreed to let it be. She was seventeen anyway, almost an adult. I was far away from being one. By best time in my early life was spent with her. We'd go to restaurants and other places, or just lay in bed together watching movies. And doing what boy friends and girlfriend's do. We'd even drink sometimes, getting away with what we could, sometimes I the desert, other times with friends over.

A person's friend must have similar tastes. Similar interests. Be enough like minded to share the same hobbies, maybe working on the same projects. And they can even get rid off these things. There are so, so many examples of people who became major success stories because of it. From Apple and Microsoft, even from the two guys who created the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

My best friends have always been interested in electronics, especially computer and video game electronics, as well as game programming, some have had a dungeons and dragons interest. And really that is the small amount of interest my best friends had, or my future friends would.

Working on a project and doing it as well as it could be, having a good idea to begin with, is a perfect friendship.

My brother was my best friend in my early twenties. And all wed do is watch movies together on TV, go to the theater to watch particularly good movies. We'd walk to a gas station every Friday night, a fifteen minute walk, and we'd talk all the way. One night we were watching this show on PBS. The host was kind of weird. He started by saying "greetings, greetings, fellow star gazers!" Anyways while walking at night to the gas station my brother blurted that out, to make fun of him. Right while we were passing by some people he said "Greetings greetings! Fellow star-gazers!" he didn't know those people were right there before he said it.

Treasures of the world

Within the world many good things may be found. It helps to know what they are and where they can be found. And the more you know of them and go after them, the better. Here are such places, the "fruits of the world."

Treasure is found where the heart says it is. If you come to understand the variety of things before you, the wealth of the world is not shallow, but deep. To come to like things simply by thinking about them goes a long way toward having much interest and being guided by desire instead of being in a world without any interest.

Tastes can be based entirely on expensive things. It can be based on cheaper things. In fact many of the people I've known only like electronics, and unload a lot of cash for it. If the store doesn't mind, and they probably won't, then spend as much time in it as it takes to look over everything. Follow your intuition. Don't pick things immediately.

Some people are happy enough just to sit in an area of town with their friends. They like to be around a lot of people, sometimes with themselves alone, too. Some like the park. Others like a bar. Some like to swim at a pool. Others like historical museums. Some like sporting events. Others like restaurants or fast food. Some like the library or book stores, for others movie and music stores. Some get together to play card games, of any kind, and some like the arcade.

So what do you like to do? If you don't really like going out that in fine too. I'd just say if you choose to stay at home to invest in things that makes life better inside.

What patience produces

Patience is good for many reasons. Here are some results that come from patience, some of the best things you can find it to result in:

Easier work

When you don't have your attention fixed on how many hours that remain until the end of the work day you do your duties and put thoughts of being done behind you. It may make the difference of tolerating work or finding it intolerable. This includes personal work too, such as at home cleaning. And I'll include in this studying, too. That patiently learning with the resolve to understand it fully is the best thing you can do to study.

Better work

With your mind focused on the job/task at hand, rather than the clock, the end of it/finishing it, you will have put yourself fully into what you are doing. You will not have created shortcuts. In fact you'd probably work until the end not even realizing that the last hour of it has just passed by. So give yourself to your work and give your work to yourself in order to do things both the best you can and in most fullness.

Less stress

Stress can damage your psyche like nothing else. You could fiddle your thumbs and pull out your hair during certain times. Good, expected, times just around the corner, in a day, in an hour. And the night before you will not sleep. You could lay there staring at the clock. You'd get up two hours before dawn. You could be driving and just wanting to get there quickly, so much as to speed at 80 miles at hour. But would patience people will have reduced or even have eliminated all of the stress in their lives.

Less worry

Facing the problem only when it is right before you is often the better choice. When the problem does come but you couldn't have done anything about it until it did, you'd be so much more calm and steady to deal with it when it does. Worry can be OK if it just reminds you of important things. If it keeps you out of trouble. But some worry is unfounded and you learn that when the time comes to face it, it was never really a problem at all. Waiting for results that you can't change the outcome on, some kind of test result, some kind of application consideration, patience will remove the worries of them.

Less agitation

Rushing to get anything done or to bring something in can very especially agitate you if it doesn't. If something goes wrong. Meanwhile you pressured it to come forth and fall like into anger and resentment if your hope failed you. That is hope with insistence. It is hope with a demand. It is situated in desired complete destruction of failure over things we can't totally control. To, with all of our spirit, abolish such occurrences. And if we can't, we tend to destroy the very world itself, that world around us where others are getting by better.

A quicker day

This is a particularly good result of patience. When we have something to keep us occupied we don't so much have a staring focus on time. Days come when we arrived to a particularly good day in whatever way it is. Those last few hours can be excruciating, for some. And it may not even be a few hours but a few days before that day in which one has anticipated and desired it's come about. The best thing you can do is to have something else to focus on and then when such times come you can just slide right into it.

Getting everything done

Those that want to be done with a goal or done with whatever they are working on, even when they are nearly done, they could be so inpatient to get finish that they'll stop before it could even be done.

Not ruining relationships

People that find a reply from a loved one takes too long. They even feel somewhat abandoned. They call, and call, and call again. Why won't you speak to me? Why won't you call? Why won't you email me back? So be patient as "absence makes the heart grow fonder."

Not becoming needy/demanding

And in a similar way are those wanting to be visited by others, for others to contact them. As well people that want to spend money before they even have it, will buy the whole store. Anticipation and expectation, however, can be a good thing. Because it creates desire and hope.

Having greater enjoyment meantime

Commonly referred to as "stopping the smell the roses," that you enjoy the process more. That you enjoy the climb. After all, people enjoy climbing and the view both, as both one in the same thing. To not be a person if deadlines, but to be a person of daily accomplishments, will both help you do your best and help you do achieve greater things.

Eating better

It is an easy habit to get and keep, to enjoy your food the best you can. By eating it slowly. To be patient with the food before you and to taste it as fully as can be makes an incredible improvement on daily life, as we eat at least three times a day (if we are fortunate to have it.)

How to preserve dignity

You are your own creation. You've lived life according to your own design and you are the owner of your own existence. These are teachings that relate to keeping your existence with integrity.

Not being used

There are some that would only use you in life to get what they want. These kinds of people have no friends, no close relationships at all. They may be nice and kind, as long as you are giving them things. But when you discontinue helping them they are gone, as it should be. They ask all the time and may call you inconsiderate or selfish not to help them. You may even feel that way toward them by not helping them. But do they do anything for you either? Or are you just something they use?

Not being taken from

Some people have money but refuse to buy the house things they need. They may buy a fraction of what they need, and that's it. They usually buy the expensive crap while you buy the budget stuff. Yet you've gotten all you need and they've run out of money. So they turn to you. And apparently they can't even afford a lighter. And really want nothing more than one time. Then one time again. Then one time again. They'll promise to pay you back double or triple. But when the times comes they've rolled it over in their minds and determined that owing that much is simply unfair.

Saying no

And so learn to say no. It may not be easy at first. But it becomes easier with practice. Say no to anyone who wants something from you for free. Say no to any demands. Say no to anything that someone would take. They may be offended when you deny them the simplistic things. Their pride and competency doesn't go far beyond getting free things. So they could be offended. But really, no matter how small it is, it is entirely your right to say no. Have them be self sustaining.

Making your own choices

Just throw out any idea that is put before you if someone is talking you into doing something you don't want to do. There was this highly annoying person I knew that asked me if I wanted to smoke with him. I told him no, and he got all hurt from it. He also wanted me to go walk down Mission Street. When I refused he was irate. I had to yell in his face that I didn't want to hang out with him. Which I did, and he left me alone. The guy was a creep, he always wanted to hug people. I saw many women that told him that was too personal.

The power of choice will take you where you want to go. Not where others want you to be, but where you want to be and with what you want to do in life, is in your hands.

Being proud

I can't personally have pride I didn't earn. I simply can't. I can't imagine things not true, without a basis behind them. But with what good I have done, I do have a lot of pride for. Otherwise my pride comes from sincere compliments given by others. On how I dress, regarding my intellect, and whatever else. I have a lot of shame regarding certain things, a stain on my clothes, acting foolishly, but really shame and pride are two opposite things. If you are going to have any standards, if you are going to raise the bar high, if you are going to be a true and accurate representation if yourself, then you will have to face the shame of any instance in which you are not fitting or qualified if these. You would be a pretend. You would be a fake. But you would know what's under your clothing.

Intolerance of abuse

There are many kinds of a-holes in the world. The kind that are simply open a-holes. There that are secretively a-holes though sometimes want to share their secret. The kind of a-holes that are incredibly selfish. And the worst kinds: those that are violent and perverted, or both. The best thing you can do is to remove yourself from them. Dignity will be preserved, brought back onto you, when you do. When you do so once, you may have even gotten the determination to never let it happen again. Someone you thought was a good person who in the long run hit you, that you thought loved you, by rejecting that person, you will have the power to do so again but next time more quickly and easily. People like that should be put in prison. You're doing everyone a favor.

Getting things for yourself

Reward yourself. Give much of what you have to yourself, not another person, not other people. As you like something get it. Never have shame for your unique tastes. Never let someone call you selfish for not sharing. Even try to save the last piece of candy for yourself.

Making up your own mind

Don't let others make choices for you unless you totally agree with them. They might need you for one thing but you are wanting something else. In that case leave and look for the person who needs you for what you want to be doing. If someone wants you to go somewhere with them and you would rather stay home or something, just tell them so. I think we all have that problem sometimes. I knew this guy that wanted me to be in a band with him. I'd practice music at his house "me on keyboard" but my interest just wasn't there. My dad used to say we were going to a gas station and he was getting me a soda. Then we'd go to his damn brothers house and I was stuck there for hours, even over night.

Speaking your mind

Whatever you want to happen, whatever you want done, to be a part if, to be included in or not included in, throw in your two cents. Have people know these things. Tell them how things really are, with all sincerity. Don't bargain with people who want you to do something you entirely don't care for. Just cut it short and go about your own way as you want things to be.

Doing things your own way

Don't let others tell you that you are doing anything the wrong way when it us right for you. Especially don't let others control your mind and your thoughts that way, imposing on it such things as religion.. especially Christianity that would wrap around you and take out your normally thinking and occurring life.

Defending yourself and your beliefs

Your beliefs are your own. But there are many that would push their beliefs on you and refute any viability of having your own apart from theirs, or even having just a little difference than theirs. Some people believe in entirely absurd things and expect you too, too. Followers of certain religions will act on the wrath of God, and without fear, and in total self sacrifice. Avoid such people at all costs. Don't be duped by religion. Don't abandon all control over it.

Disconnecting from hateful people

Sometimes their is just no hope. You may have initially liked someone. Turns out that they are obnoxious as soon as they find any comfortable around you. Hate is dealt powerfully. Kind is harder to come by. Like I said before, try to please only one person, not a group of people. And there will always be people who don't like you. It's probably because they see you as better than them. Something they deny and cover and in their otherwise natural understanding of you. But there are also those that like you. Just hang with those that do. And stand your ground if you have to. The only thing that stops a bully is to fight him or her, and strongly make your presence known.

Putting yourself first

If you can't please everyone then just please yourself. Try to get the most. Have a spirit of competition. I knew a police officer, a good friend of mine, tell me that socialism was bad for one reason: there's no competition. Socialism has a society where all it's people work for each other, with pre determined jobs. People are generally made very equal from person to person. But to think about it.. you only do work "for society" but is such a society a good one? If you aren't working for yourself to become better, to become the best at any given things, according to choice, to effort, than work has no meaning.

Only do things that are for your better good, whether that be in the short term or the long term, here today, or available tomorrow.

Getting what you need

Be self sustaining. With every drop of strength and dignity you have, don't become a beggar. Don't rely too much on others. If you've come to receive most of your things free and have become quite tactical at doing so, you will depend on others so much that you could not survive without then. But the man who makes his life, who strives for things and worked his power obtains them, had mastered all that he needs to in life.

Being Intellectual, not Emotional

Time heals all wounds but heals none whose thoughts remain on the days before. It has been argued that in order to overcome past pain, they must've think back to such times and go through them again. Don't you believe it. That's not true. You only succeed in digging up old things. Things that were buried. Things that were covered with layers of other, better things. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. And some would agree. Those who know it rightly so as I do, through experience. I've had therapist that dug up old and long past issues with me, and as long as I allowed them to, my problems were just never resolved.

There is another faulty but typical school of thought that says you "release out" your anger. They like to use the term "venting it out." As though there is a ball inside you that never goes flat. Always inside you. Getting fatter. As though you'd burst at any moment. But that just isn't true. Some psychologists know it not to. They will tell you that if you allow yourself to get more angry more than you naturally are toward any given bad circumstance, that you are only teaching yourself to become angry. Angry over things of little significance. Someone said something rude- do you ruminate on it? Are you feeling enough anger? Are you wrong in trying to ignore it. To put your mind on other, better things, good things, as you are otherwise enjoying the day? As you are going a place you like to be. Someone said something hateful on the bus. Do you carry that thought and tell yourself "you didn't get angry enough!" Or do you just shift your focus on better things? They say that "the best revenge is happiness in life, the resolve to live well." To let others go forward on their own destructive path. And not to allow them to take you with them.

I say that an intellectual mind is superior to an emotional one. I'd say there are two types of happiness. The intellectual kind, which brings with it more peace, and the emotional kind, which is very difficult to control or predict. That the mind has layers if intellect over it, burying emotions, but still very able to find happiness, and sensory based pleasure. That for any given thing you have a multitude of perspective. I'm not saying abandoned all emotion, but rather just make intellect rule over them, filtering them, keeping them from stinging you.

Having integrity

I've known many people who would gladly borrow, by promise to return, but when the time came they had nothing but clever excuses. Some people I known always found faults in others, but never themselves—yet, they often cheated others. And when someone acted against it they felt at no personal fault, only felt bad at getting caught. And I put such people in their place many times in my life. I dealt to them what they deserved, as calculated as it could have been done. To spill out their guts before me. Opening them up. Showing what they were made of, as in a mirror.

A person with integrity most of all, doesn't cheat. And they don't lie, representing themselves falsely. They don't create short cuts or do things half way. They live up to their promises. They keep their word. They pay back their debts.

They are people who refuse to associate and remain around those defrauding others, misleading others, or using them, or bring around criminally operating people. Their pride is rooted in honesty. And they cannot tolerate being such a way toward others. They would rather go about a much better, much honorable way. And as far as their integrity goes is as far as they will be treat others good, rather than badly, in the ways said above. But in any way that is just decrepit, you will find them strongly against it, and may even risk life and limb to stop it. And so sadly, many people of such strong integrity as this have lost their lives in trying to stop apprehensible things being done by others.

The worst enemy against evil is the person whose integrity will stop it at all cost. They would rather die than allow it to continue. They will seek out help and expose them. Whether or not it is safe to do so, whether or not it is very dangerous to go against a corrupt person or group.

Self expression

Self expression can be defined as an idea representation of oneself applied in many different forms and methods. That can be art. That itself is as unique to the artist her or himself. That can include music, that is created uniquely. Can be writing. Can be creating any number of things. But can also be producing videos that tell others the things if their soul. Things liked, or not, ones own tastes. Ones own opinions.

It is to capture a piece of your soul and preserve it, sharing it with others. They are representations of the mind and heart. And while many go through life not having kids, they have created things that speak of them. Even very precisely. Very well recreating themselves. Preserving their memory. All the things they are made up of. As in a diary, a biography, but also music compositions, art work, etc.,

Protection of yourself, your loved ones, and of good

Beware! Excessive self defense is a crime! Even so, it may come down to the question would you have that person gravely harm you and get away, or would you rather defend yourself, powerfully, and completely, and have a judge decide what will happen to you as a result?

One if my favorite video topics is "instant karma" and justice. One of the most painful things to watch is a person being attacked heartlessly, and for him no justice. I've seen a video of a biker gang that, for absolutely no reason, decided to pursue a person in a car and harm him. But first they followed him for miles, right up beside him, blocking him in their motorcycles. The car eventually had to come to a stop. The bikers approached his car, busted out the window, and seriously attacked him. He didn't do no harm. I was hoping the video would end better than it did. But it didn't and blood came pouring out of my soul.

Some people deserve the death penalty. For all sake of human dignity. Some deserve what's coming to them. They deserve to be disgraced. They deserve to be haunted by what they did, having equal power returned onto them. They deserve to have their lives cut short. To have it be treated as garbage. To be taken, put in a cage, and at a specific date walk down the halls to meet their fate, executed, without any possible chance to live.

Videos of justice being dealt let me know that a bad person was stopped, and treated as he should have been. A man breaking into a home, trying to rape or kill or rob. Then on the phone you hear a worried person. In the end shots are fired. And a piece if trash sh*t lay dead on the floor. Good is all I can think.

But there are some that say "he just beat the person up. He didn't deserve to get shot over it. They went too far." These are people who do not have a mind or heart for justice. They say in their own way that they don't care. The police may say one of two things, that "they deserved it," or that, "that's our job, not theirs." Look, anyone who attacks another without any cause whatsoever, doesn't deserve to live! Live for what? These people may have raped women multiple times, robbed multiple houses, harmed multiple people. Good people- and a good person doesn't say that punishment should be anything less than severe, the cowardly do, as well as those that don't have any sense of justice, people who are not adequately sympathetic and empathetic.

I believe fully in the "stand your ground" law that states if you feel your life is in danger, shoot the person. I believe in absolutely no tolerance for those who blatantly harm others without any cause.

Granted that some things are more impersonal than others, such as theft from a large store, but as far as bodily harm being dealt there should be zero tolerance for those who do. You can see in the news sometimes that a man shoves an elderly woman on the ground and Rob's her of her purse. Why should he have to just go to prison? If a person that witnessed it could shoot that person to death the world would be a far better place. But if someone did defend any person that way, they'd likely be charged with a serious crime. I don't make the laws. But excessive self defense shouldn't be a crime.

The Wickedness of the world today

It is easy not to see anything wrong with the world of today. Or to underestimate it. People are so selfish and self centered to not notice it. To not notice what others are going through. That wickedness is based on selfishness. People only care about their own issues and are ready and willing to condemn others based on them. Whatever that issue is. Usually based on a set of forbidden mentalities that people should never have. Also based on out of place behavior. Any cause they strive for. False steps pointed out. And all the while people live day by day focused entirely on themselves. The effect of that can destroy entire nation's as is readily observable in the past.

People prostrate themselves. They uphold themselves feeling they can do no wrong. When they come face to face with authority they are hit like with a brick wall. They are apprehended and jailed. All the while finding no fault in their behavior and in fact think they should be exonerated because the police treated them "with brutality."

People make themselves out to be victims. They go about in destructive and obnoxious ways and when they are encountered harshly, they will jump right into the presence of someone who was treated wrong, they will spew forth with all effort their sicknesses or problems in life sometimes demanding a crutch, other times a wheel chair. This kind of pseudo- weakness donned by the fully competent and strong, can save them, can redeem them. And permitting them to run all over the people around them.

But worse of all is the hatefulness that you can see all around you. From people ridiculing you without reason, or hyper sensitive people, the kind that if you bump into them they could lash out at you. It's been seen in the news. Someone gets pissed off and stabs someone on the bus. An elderly man in his 70s bumps into a kid. Her mother takes a brick and smashes him in the head. A man shoves another to the ground. He takes a gun and shoots him to death. Fighting and squabbles are all around. That's because people are more naturally bad than they are good. Being spiritually good takes practice. And that practice has been lost.

The Poor and Good Human Conditions

This is a list of conditions that you will find people in, ranging from very bad to very good. And it should provide an idea of where you are at, where you could be, and where others are and why to help them.

The homeless

The homeless have a life that is very dependent on others. They may be very cold at night, especially without a blanket. Many of them are mentally I'll, to the point of being unable to help themselves. If they are lucky they've found a place to sleep at night in the city, as security guards and police are always removing them. The homeless often get body lice or bed bugs. Most resort to eating from the garbage.

Those under dictatorships

Those under the throes of dictatorships must be very careful with what they say. One wring thing said any their glorious leader could cost them their lives. The daily paper is about that dictator. There is nothing else to read about. Even when they've done no wrong, they may be punished. Over any suspicion, even falsely. They are given no trial. And if their parents or sons and daughters commit a crime, they may be apprehended to and placed in prison labor camps until the day they die. They are assigned jobs by the government of the dictator, and only have that as a choice. If they are inadequate, it may cost them Their lives.

The dictator

Within his or her own country a dictator may do absolutely anything they wish to. They have as many servants as they need and desire. Any imaginable thing, from having food served to them to sexual favors. They rape who they want to rape, they kill who they want to kill, they enslave who they wish to enslave, and there is no one stopping them from doing so. They have total freedom within their own region.

The wealthy

The wealthy have a life that the poor could never imagine. One that the poor will never know. The wealthy bathe in pools and Jacuzzis, they ride the best vehicles. They eat the best food. They have it served to them as desired. They are driven wherever they wish to go. They go wherever they wish to go. To Rome, to a foreign beach, or any place in town. In the best hotels. Living I homes nearly the size of a city block.. and sometimes that size. They don't have to do certain things such as picking up groceries. Their clothes are the best that money can buy. And they are cleaned by their servants.

The mid range

(The middle class) are hard workers living from paycheck to paycheck. They may have a small family. They must try at least a little to preserve food. They can afford good food sometimes, but often it is generic food. They have just enough entertainment inside. They don't have something such as a theater room with recliners. But if they are lucky they'll have a nice sized TV and a collect of movies, whether they are legal copies or not. All of the important work goes to them, yet they are under valued and under appreciated

The struggling

Those that are on the brink of losing a home. Those that are attending college and working at the same time just barely getting by. These are those that may barely making ends meet and living off of very little food. They may not have electricity or other necessary things. Their possessions are few, next to nothing. They've likely pawned or sold all they had. They may even be sleeping on the floor, in a shack, or a small studio apartment trying to get an idea job, maybe someone under paid.

The brainwashed

Which is especially found in Christian based cults! These are people that have given their every dime and thought to their religious leaders. They are very prone to doing malicious things—or committing suicide. Many if these cult leaders are highly perverted, having multiple marriages, having sexually criminal behavior. And lives aren't only lost by these, but souls.

The slave

Modern slavery exists, unfortunately. But to take it back a few hundred years, people couldn't begin to understand the suffering these people endured. To be taken from their family by a mysterious force. Placed in a boat, shackled, with very little room. Being filthy, sitting in one's waste, for months. Coming to a new place where worked is force on them and the cruelty dealt to them for disobeying. A terrible, terrible thing.

The famous

A good life for some, a terrible one for another. To be hounded by the Paparazzi wherever you go. To see your image in a magazine, on TV, online, and the interest that others have toward you, down to the gritty detail. Money is made just showing up. Being interviewed. By singing, acting, writing, etc., There may be no privacy but I think it is something I'd like myself.

The mentally ill

As long as (we) take our medication, the world is our oyster. This is where I fit in. I consider myself to have an upper middle class status due to all of the help I receive. It goes far beyond SSI. I have a "clipper" card so I can ride the bus anywhere any time for free. I have medical insurance, good insurance. I live in a board and care where staff clean for me, including my laundry, and cook for me. But would this life comes the responsibility of taking medication, which makes a world of difference for schizophrenic people, particularly.

The hedonist

This just refers to any one in general who is in the position of living in pleasure. That can be food, sexual, sensory, the wealth, through acquaintances, usually according to design, as something established in their lives, where gambling and prostitution is legal.

The committed

A life in a mental hospital is one much better than one in jail. They are not such scary places as depicted, they are not like how they were a few decades ago. In fact it's nothing to be afraid of. The worst thing that could happen is getting a shit of medication for not taking the prescribed medication. And schizophrenic medication doesn't make you high, doesn't sedate you, doesn't "make you stupid," it just makes you think normally, without delusions or paranoia, for example. The food is generally good. Still, you are confined. Everyone gets very exited that day that they are leaving.

The incarcerated

You often have among you the most hateful of people. If you tell any person something bad you'll likely be attacked for it. The food is awful. Things without flavor, warm milk, warm water, TV that plays baseball and shit all day. Rape isn't really common as I commonly thought. To be behind bars is terrible, most of all because you've lost access to the regular world, a world full of good things. For me that is choice music and entertainment, smoking, and internet, writing, good food, things kept from you entirely in these places. Having to wear orange clothing. It's the worst thing that could happen to anyone.

The suffering

This includes people would cancer or terminal illness. Abusive parents or partners. People being bullied. People in a lot of pain. People highly addicted to dangerous drugs. Those that are starving. And let us pray for a moment about these people, and hold them I our hearts. May God come to their care.

Things you should always ask yourself

These questions have the kind if answers that you are looking for in life.

They will help you keep in touch with the more important matters.

Could my life be better?

Look inside to see what you lack. Set forth on the path toward obtaining it. Bring it into your heart. Draw it into your heart. Hold onto it and as long as you do is as long as you will continue to arrive for it, every day making you stronger and more able to do so. As it may take time and effort to come by, though not all to much is required each day toward reaching it in an eventual outcome. These things can be minor and very doable, too, however. Maybe you just want certain better things in your home. Or some certain thing easily gotten—which with a little at a time, great things can come together.

What are the good things in my life?

It is a very good meditation to contemplate what you have. Things you have stopped away—resting in a cabinet at home, things such as a part of a collection, especially. That is a material aspect of it. Consider your friends, too. Consider tour daily opportunities. The options you have, the things to come in the near future, even a far away one, too. After all, things are only as good as you know them to be. You could have such great things in life but if you don't you don't take into account the good that they are, they are then unimportant, even meaningless.

What are the bad things in my life?

Consider anything that needs to be removed or changed. Reduce burden on yourself. Remove yourself from bad places. Stop any harm being dealt to you. Abandon things that just don't produce what you want then to turning instead into something that is more likely to. If any given thing could be made better, consider doing so.

What is one good memory?

Try not to let bad memories over crowd your thoughts, those thoughts that could better be used to remember good things, and with it hope and happiness. They say to remember bad things, but I say that remembering good things is far better, producing a far better result than digging up old things of misery. I have a special technique for remembering things. I use a small pocket sized dictionary and, word by word—with basic words, remember things that relate to that word.

Are things really that bad?

Some people could have a life that someone else in poor circumstances could never hope to have. And the effect of it can make someone quite spoiled. The world itself could spoil you despite all the efforts of your parents not to have you be spoiled. Unless you are in plain total misery then don't feel bad about your life. It goes a long way to accept things as being good enough. After all, there's always something better. But we must come to the point when good enough is good enough. And often a bad thing can be transformed into a good thing. Seeing the silver lining in the cloud.

What are the things I want most?

More money? Fame? Just more respect? More love? A partner or companion? A certain thing that may cost a lot? More adventure? Going a bear place, to travel somewhere? More of any given thing? Greater success? To make a positive change? To create something great? A better place to live? Because if you don't consider what you want you will have nothing to strive for.

What are the things I like the most?

That's a very important question. It's best done on a best of method. To think what is the best thing.. of food, of creative items, of electronics, music and entertainment, places to go, anything to have. Even things within themselves. Not just a chocolate bar but what kind. Not just a general of music but a band within it. Not just a band within it but a song from that band. To know in detail what you like the best, your choices open entirely before you.

What are the things that could make things better for me?

Could be education, a new job, a new home, a home in a better area, better use if money, new relationships, new habits, creating something great, coming up with such a good idea as to make you wealthy, losing weight, starting something new. Whatever it is that would make life better for you the knowledge of that kind is precious.

The Happiness Ritual

I performed this ritual many years ago and it changed my life. I had been both quite bored and depressed before I did. I settled that I had to change that and roughly put together a ritual. After I performed it things changed for me to much better. I had stopped laying in bed all day. In fact I had began staying awake much longer at night and thirsty for each new day. Here is that same ritual.

In a candle lit room, or just lightly lit room, in the dark, give praise to Thalia, have good food before you, have energetically happy music playing, and dance to yourself. Say Bless Thalia for (every good thing I your life.) With a dagger in hand and a great feeling of built up power, when it is that your power has raised to great strength pierce the air and proclaim "May Euphrosyne rule over all of my coming days! May Thalia and Aglaea be beside me!"

Then afterward dance I great happiness and joy, until you become too exhausted to continue. Rest a moment. And feel your heart pumping into your spirit, leading unto a happy place. Sigh and laugh with happiness and relief. Take the food before you and eat it, feeling it has been given to you as a reward.. for who you are, for simply deserving to be happy and to be kept that way.

Afterward wrap yourself in a blanket and feel surrounded by the wings of an angel. And finally, take a chalice (it just has to be a cup, really) and very slowly and peacefully drink from it.

That's all there is to it. But in doing so, you will gain far greater happiness.

The Goodness of Variety and Difference

Why do something differently? Why own things different than typically? After all, you may have chosen the best brand for anything. But the answer to that is, just for the sake of difference itself. When I was a kid there was no doubt, I liked the Super Nintendo more than any other system. I was kind if a loyal person to the brand. But when I got older I started asking myself. What was that other thing? The Genesis? For the first time in forever I started considering it. I found it good just to know about it. Like there was this thing before me I'd never knew of. I always thought that the Nintendo stuff was just better. But I found that the Genesis had good stuff for it as well. Overall the SNES was better. But still, I was interested in something different mostly for it's sake of alone and just knew in about the thing for the first time kind of never before experienced or known. The Nintendo 64 came out. But my favorite game came to the PlayStation (the Final Fantasy series.) And given I was just not interested I Nintendo concepts outside of 2D, I had moved on. I had found something different and better.

I really like a Bic lighter. They last a long time. Are well made. But only having the same thing time after time is not good. So I'll sometimes opt for something else, like of a flashing design. Besides it's more like meeting in the middle sometimes. You can't afford the best all the time. So you get the middle thing. Not the worst. Not the best. A Zippo lighter is better every time. But can be too expensive to get each time. If a person isn't made of money, they can still have the best sometimes, but otherwise will have to get mostly what is mid range or cheaper.

Collecting only one thing can be boring, referring to specific collections. I am more just a collector of "good things," meaning if it is good to me: I'll buy it, that's my collection. It's not just one thing. Why can't that be a collection too? I used to only buy cargo pants. I thought that would never change. They are handy. They have many pockets. But one day I was in the store and came across a pair of pants, a kind known as "golf" pants. And it won't me over. They are very good looking and comfortable.

Accepting Responsibility

Life is full of responsibilities, no matter who you are. Certain things are expected of people that can carry serious repercussions if not obeyed. Lighter responsibilities abound too. And to live life well some responsibility is required to maintain a good and full life.

I was very fortunate to have the dad (my step father) that I did. He provided for his kids. We always had food, good food. He even took us on some very exiting vacations.. to all sorts of places, theme parks, wooded areas and mountains, large, far away lakes, to cabins, or just more simple trips short out of town.

My dad didn't abuse me. He disciplined me, which helped me later in life, but he never hit me. He tended to our school supplies. He provided us all a dependable shelter. There were never times we were living with other families or some such thing, as he kept the same job. He wasn't rich. But he took care of us as a parent is expected to.

My mother helped me later I life after I developed Schizophrenia. And she helped me all she could.

So a parent has more responsibility than any other kind of person. Children that are unnecessarily starving are being abused. Parents that sexualize everything like with tirades of dirty jokes, they are abusive. Having a negative influence can harm a child, leading him or her to make poor decisions. And parents that leave their kids alone for days at a time, that ridicule their kids, that make them feel stupid, these things are irresponsible and abusive.

Apart from parenting there are other expectations of people. Free rides are hard to come by. Those that depend on them too much will likely become homeless, or at least favorite a lot of struggle. So one must have a job. And to work as is expected of them, to keep a home, to even really own anything.

It is expected that you abide by the law. If you don't, the consequences could be dire. Those that couldn't hold back rage wound up killing, or mortally wounding someone in an unintended way. And such a poor lot will they receive for it. A place in prison, even at the cost of execution. Even if they don't get caught immediately, they may later. I'm sure that a few years may go by, yet it lingers with them. It must be a terrible feeling. Then comes the day they hear pounding on the door and the law has come for them. And they must face the fate that they had worried about for some time. They may have gotten old by then. And their life will be spent behind bars.

Resisting, Avoiding, and Evading Harm

As a teenager and young adult people are just more likely to make poor choices. There should be some expectation of that. I myself did some things that should have landed me in a lot of trouble. I never hurt anyone. But I sure did paint the town with black. Music had a very strong influence on me. It made me desire bad lifestyle choices, such as being an evil Satanist.. and by that I mean a psychotic one, and gangster lifestyles as emerged from gangster rap in the early 90s. I tried to steal some shoes in the school gym. I was caught. And fortunately wasn't thrown in jail for it. I'd get in fights all the time. I brought a know to school. Was expelled. Had to attend another school in a different state.

The first thing I have to say about "resisting, avoiding, and Evading harm" is: make your influences be chosen carefully.

Pick your friends carefully. One type of person sells drugs and carries weapons. If you become friends with them then you may find yourself in an unescapable circle. If you live in a bad neighborhood the best you can do for yourself is to leave. Other than that you can only keep to yourself, be careful where you are and when. But no matter what you do in a bad neighborhood or hood trouble may follow you. So at all costs, move.

I've found in life that there is very little harm done to me who aren't in a bad circle. People just walking down the street, not associated with bad people are much less likely to be harmed. But with friends of a certain kind dangerous occurrences starkly rise.

Naturally in any area you are not going to want to be around late at night. I warn you not to go jogging around large open areas beside the highway. One day when I was 15 years old a van crept up slowly behind me. I went into a home of somebodies and told them. I stayed for a few moments, went back outside, and fortunately they were gone. In fact totally gone. I recommend you carry a phone on you at all times. Any kind of GPS device that would help. Beware of perverts at parties who would drug you. And keep yourself safe!

Form a circle of friends that protect each other. Ones that watch out for each other. Ones that keep tabs on each other. Ones able to send or bring help to you when needed.

The Spirit of Competition

Find someone better than you. Be maybe a little realistic but choose to become greater than that person. Everything that person or company does, do one better. I up them in all they do. Even 3-up them! Make it your agenda to be the best you could be. Strive to be at the top. Whether that comes from better education, better training and experience, or whatever it may be.

Do better than your siblings. Do better than other family members, even all of them. Take the necessary steps to make it happen. First, rise above the short, next, above the average, and lastly, above the tallest of people.

Because the rewards are creating a better name for yourself. To be well known and we'll regarded by many people, to have greater wealth, to be remembered, and to simply be the best.

Whatever the day has in store for you greater things can come tomorrow for those who choose to act today. By making ng the difficult choice by work and toil you will gain these great things. A better promising future is at steak. Those who will do nothing will have come and gone like a vapor. But those that have chosen to create a better future for themselves, only they will find it.

10 Positive Effects of..

Forgiveness

People that don't are left with anguish, suffering, and bitterness. If a person has a strong effort to do better then s/he should be given that chance. If they know they are not going to be forgiven then they may not do anything to change. A whole day can be ruined by a minor insult. But at those times a choice can be made that you are either pierced by it, or that you proceed through the rest of the day happily, peacefully, and well.

Making amends

In order to keep a good friend a good friend, then sometimes mistakes may be needed to be corrected. To keep others on good terms with you. Sometimes a person can do something so wrong that it'll cost them their freedom. So don't let mistakes pile up and become worse and worse. By making amends you have made it cost something, before there comes a greater price.

Being honest

People will trust you more. People will believe you more. You will meet the expectation of others. You would be able to do what you are expected to, as you represent yourself truth fully. If you couldn't do something and let others know you can't, they won't expect it of you. You'll never wind up cheating others, and being accused of doing so. You'll be known for what you are. You will not be some story

Better understanding

Overall understanding. That you give more consideration toward things that others have a lesser understanding of, since they spend no time evaluating it, situations, circumstances, properties of things. You'll understand things that others around you do not, and that can be very advantageous. You will have known the scenario, you will be able to play the part. If you know action and reaction well, it will do you a lot if good.

Better perspective

Better perspective is perspective that us useful as far as understanding and it's uses go. Having many different perspectives over something can be a very good thing, something highly useful. You can predict things better. You are something of a prophet. You'll know a lot of good, bad, good in bad, bad in good, and the area right in between. Then you can operate any given thing like a master would.

Looking for better things

Always have in mind 'what is a little better?' This then reach for. Drastic improvement over anything can be very difficult, sometimes. But there is always room for improvement, and a little improvement at a time goes a long way. One of the most motivating things to me is seeing a home being built. Right across my home a three story home is being built. And it began as just an ugly frame. Every day they arrive to working on it. And they don't do a lot each day. But after months of beginning are now just about done. And the house came together as a beautiful thing.

Ways that certain things should be improved

This goes against the commonly used methods of "plainness" found all around. Where things can be quite dull, lacking any taste. Things that could otherwise be very cool, better to look at, given more zest. But alas, the government and people have chosen to be so boring!

Things in town

For example something as simple as a garbage can. Those army green ones you see every where in every big city. They are always army green, one of the ugliest colors they could be. Couldn't they be given artwork or at least better colors? Hell, paint the glow in the dark! I think glow in the dark paint is too, expensive, but anything other, trash cans of different colors, at least. And why not add glitter to the conclusion side walk? The answer to it is really simple, they feel forbidden to do these things, to stray from the norm. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have more beautiful things in the city? Balloons, bubble makers, fog producers, granted some of these things require maintenance, bur not much! More colors, more flair. But it is all concrete, steel, and stone. It's all gray. It's stupid. They plant only the same kind of trees into the side walk.

Things in a bed room and home

Bed rooms too are very plain. Human adults have no imagination. It is always the same set up as everyone else's: TV here. Bed here. There's a couch. White blinders. Elevating your bed, adding neat things in a room, things not typically found in one, and a little imagination can go a long way. Maybe have a black light in your closet. Or before your sink. Wall paper made of.. tarot cards, maybe, or blank CDs that reflect light off them a certain way.

Offices, businesses

Sure would be cool if you could jump down stairs from an upper floor onto an air cushion. Sure that sounds silly, but it would just be fun. It's all very plain.. as far as lighting, organization, presentation, and attending goes. At best they may have music playing. The floors could be better than just floors, and the walls and ceilings, too. But the ceiling just contains florescent lights, the floor just tile.

Nature

Things could be much more lush. Larger trees planted, the tallest growing, areas rich with vines. A community if people that have their homes built on and around trees. Platforming extending into an ocean. Homes built underground. I mean, we built high, high upward. Why not build underneath, too? The crust is so deep. Someday we may live in the ocean, when we have the right materials and items to do so.

Clothing

It may be flashy and it may keep you warm, but it isn't much more than cloth. They all follow designs that may present differently, but still, are little more than cloth and colors. In such a highly developed technological world as ours, you think we could do better.

Ways to find

.. to find what you are looking for. Where to find these things, where to look, their practicality, and other options.

Know your area well

If you live I even a moderately sized city, it is sure to contain many things. People usually know of only a few places in town when there is so much more there. I walk past new places, especially after I move into a new place in town, and found what I was looking for when I was in a different area. Like a few pawn shops, variety stores, and comic book place. I'd been looking for two things particularly: a novelty watch (Nintendo's Mario Bros.) And a fanny pack that I just about gave up finding in town. Then found these were now a block away from my home. Thank goodness for Google maps! I was going to go out of my way to go to Ross, a clothing store. But found one just a few blocks away.

So my point is, that you go to as many places as you can. Even just to get a good idea of what is inside it. And you'll even find things you like for the first time, or things you like that you've forgotten about.

Asking others

People can be well informed based on their own efforts to find good things. I have medical insurance but it didn't pay for glasses frames. And a friend pointed me out to a place that provides them for free. I had a friend that got a free copy online, just for asking around in certain areas online. Some people make a whole website just to ask for something. Others ask for funding toward a new project and of others like it, they'll fund it. A person that applies after job after job are likely to be hired. I wonder, how choice a person's job could be. I would suggest going after the better jobs first, and if none of those hire you, apply to the lesser jobs only then. Look where free help is given if you must, sure as if you are poor. There are many churches providing free food boxes. And meal sites. And in all things look into the details to see all of your options. You may find that what you thought was the best was outdone by another thing.

Be worthy of getting it

That can be from a better education, from training, including self training, doing your best, developing yourself, acquiring new talents, generally doing better than others, and working as hard as you can to get it. The presentation counts. Know your audience. Be all good things to all people. Self exposure: advertising yourself, bring yourself into the open as much as possible. Have people say good things about you. Get a degree. Or a certificate. Attend courses that can help you. Acquire the experience that you need. Don't blatantly offend others. Be agreeable with those above you, in higher positions, higher ranks. Be a generally likable person. Teach yourself what you need to know. Know what people want, and give it to them.

Be in the right place at the right time

Success is more likely depending on the company you keep and the place you live. And this has been known for as long as superior civilizations have been. Those wanting a better life flocked to Rome. And much later, America. And then either New York City or California. Go where the good things are. Camp with those who have big dreams. A helping hand could be given to you. By someone you didn't even know could do so.

Go with trends. But don't go with things overdone. Follow after modern thinking, be ahead of the curb. Spot any new and great thing that as of yet has just been lightly touched upon.

Getting help

Idealize a better future for yourself. It gives you hope and desire to keep doing what you are trying for. Along the way be yourself, a person unique, one both good and talented at self expression. Get the help you need. Talk to the right people. Show yourself to them and if they like who you are, they will carry you through. Make the right impression. Have the best resume you can get. Be an apprentice if it is worth it. Attend college. Go for a degree or certificate. Or go through job training that could get you the job you desire. Advertise yourself far and wide, affordably, and have known the help you need with prosperity concerning it.

If what you do can't be done alone then look for a person of two things: one good at what they do, and a friendly and agreeable person. That can be for a band, game programing or console mods, computer based businesses, many kinds of businesses, anything if a collective venture used to bring about wealth or fame. These are best friends of the best kind. Two heads are better than one. Four hands are better than two.

Kinds of happiness and well being

Happiness isn't just from one thing, but can and should be from many. And certainly well being comes fro many different things. Here is a list of the being happy and feeling well I as many ways as possible. For an overall and more complete way to feel happy and better, follow this list.

Being whole

Remind yourself of how good a person you are. Self esteem and pride lead to a far better self image, one that ignores what you lack is preferable to one that feels inadequate. So be proud of all your successes even to the smallest level.

Being satisfied, enjoying what you have

Take into account all of the good things you have. Give them thought, at least a little every day. But also set your heart on things that may be coming soon, or could be soon, according to your efforts to get them, or to have them freely. Try to make the least the most, and the most itself will reach further out, pouring from your veins, expanding your spirit.

Fulfilling your needs

Pay for the things you need. Especially things totally needed by all humans, such as food. Try not to ask yourself why you want something or should. But let your heart want what it wants, and get it. Have the things of basic necessity. Have the best things you can, too, and guard them from being lost. Then don't be dependent on others to fill the gap. You won't be desperate for anything in so doing.

Reducing harm

A person in a place where they are not harmed by others will, of course, be much happier than those who are not. I encourage you to protect yourself lawfully, by removing sure people from your life the greater authority. If they are going to hit you, don't you think that they belong in a bad place themselves? In jail? You want a happier, safer life with a more loving person, right? But some people will not let that be. And those that don't, perhaps, should be locked away.

Reducing stress, taking things more easily

It's okay if you come a little short. As for me I try hard and a high but I allow myself to fall a little short. You know, by a page or two regarding a fifteen page a day rule. As they say "don't work hard, work smart." Haven't obliged yourself too much, not volunteering to do extra, sometimes just sitting on your couch all day, maybe not all the time, but sometimes that's just the right thing to do.

Have a purpose

This gives you something to focus on when otherwise you may fall a dull and pointless day. Pride can come from it. Or at least a sense of fulfillment. It certainly gives direction and focus. They say that leisure and relaxation comes best after the work of the day is done. There was a person who was known to walk a mile everyday just so what he did the rest of the day didn't bore him.

Make things better

A little improvement can go a long way. A better future can be made for yourself, today. A little housework, doing it as you go along, will always keep you from a filthy home. One us which you live in a place that smells, has rooting food inside, food saturated dishes, nasty stuff on the toilet. Do Sunday people a bed is the best place to be. They die a little inside those conditions. But whatever can be made better, consider doing so. Even a little. A little can add up to a lot.

Having gratitude, being thankful

Wake up each new day knowing what good can come from it. Set out to do it. Just be thankful.. it is a new day. You may do whatever you want to in it. There will be good things here and there in life, new things gotten, new thing being brought in. Life is an incredibly colorful thing, isn't it? But caring about it isn't a given, it's an effort sometimes, but worth it.

Types of sadness

Self pity

Self pity is gratifying. This is for music videos, especially for the young. It brings the sense of company and sympathy out from others, in a very satisfying way. They are "at one" together, one person a needing hand, a source if salvation, and the other the receiver. It is especially powerful for suicidal people, who imagine themselves incurable, a thing that will be missed. A person thought if for a long time to come, a type of permanent sympathy coming from them. As pathetic as this sounds, it is lush with feeling.

Sadness

Those that just carry with them a little feeling. Whatever that feeling is. It's just right at an area where one wishes things were better but regarding things not easily changed. A tough commitment to keep, but a very necessary one, can produce sadness. As too just lack of good things in their life, heavy burdens, or loneliness and isolation. These people just feel a little down during the day.

Depression

Grief

These are those that have lost a loved one and it is the most sincere and deeply rooted sadness. It could be for people whose lives are simply terrible and unchangeable. It can come from an enormous amount of stress or isolation.

Severe emotional distress

This is for the persecuted, for those in areas that prohibit basic rights. For those that are in such places that are cruel toward them. It comes from lack of freedom and dignity. Those being harshly treated in certain places, sure as with forced labor and slavery. Or an abusive parent who at all times is abusive, and can lead to hysteria or a broken person.

Deprivation

Being hungry, having no food, and really nothing to live for causes a profound and deeply rooted sadness. Living in squabble. Having no rest, no peace in life, it being confined especially along with similar conditions. Having no income. Being homeless. These are very depressing.

Bleeding hearts

For the love sick- those whose true, life is ng forever love has slipped through their fingers. They feel they've lost everything. They long so deeply for this person that the sadness they produce without them generates no peace until they've gotten what they strived for. Their sadness without them only indicates to them that their love is truly strong. Or this could be for the kind of people who feel bad about the suffering of others and want to be an agent of salvation unto them.

Loss of hope

It can be more hurtful than anything when things that we anticipated with happiness a thing to come. Then only find out it will not be. And all the expectation of something good soon to occur is certainly stopped short. Maybe someone said they would take you some place, or that you would be given something, then later don't. These things can hurt people very badly!

Hardship

Hardship.. overbearing and over ruling, can be very miserable. Of all this list this one goes hand in hand with turmoil lack of control. Like one trying to get out of quick sand at all times of the day, and such is their life. Things like practical slavery, and certainly slave itself. But also an impossible but highly necessary job. As well as what put me in misery as a kid. To pass my tests at school. To not receive less than a C. Difficult school work, jobs, or just a life that is difficult, is a sad thing

Boredom

I used to be so bored that it messed with my mental state. I'd gotten so fixed in the dos and don'ts of the day filled with so much indifference that it made me feel locked in time. It was the strangest feeling I ever had. The only thing that fixed it was when the night came and I could for at least a moment watch a good show in my room. For whatever reason, that fixed it. But it was a boredom lasting weeks. Boredom is a kind of discontent.

Low self esteem

Thinking less of yourself than you should, even very poorly, and being things like, oh, ashamed of your self, highly regretful over small matters, that you "wont amount to anything" that you are good looking, except in one way, or another, generally seeing others as high above you, has a feeling of sadness to it that is like you are a mistake of some kind, a rejected item. That is such a sad lot to have..

Nihilism

This feeling can be very scary for those who knew it. It is to find everything meaningless. It is to not find any meaning in life, no purpose for it, that in the end nothing matters. To live well we've got to find meaning, and live for that meaning.

A list of unfortunate things about life

These are things that any person will have to encounter and experience in their lives. There is little or nothing that can be done to change them. The best that we can do is get by well, otherwise.

People will say nasty things

It has been said before that all people are crap holes. And even those who are your best friend may think despicably of you in the private safeness of their minds. Some days go by so smoothly, but then, right before sleep, they say the most perfectly hateful things. Some like to boss you around. Others like that talk as cold and hatefully as they can, like on the bus. But if these people do so, badly, I mean, they probably have that as a habit. You aren't so much a victim of it than an Audi to it. These just hate all the time, even wallow in hatred and misery over the world. They will go down a destructive road.

People will become violent toward you

Fortunately the odds are low that you won't be harmed for no reason, or robbed, burglarized, or raped, or murdered. That depends a lot on being in the wrong places, using the wrong schedule. But we all get into some pretty bad fights I life, at least a few times. I've been attacked with things like metal bars while homeless. I was kicked in the face with a cowboy boot. My uncle, too, was kicked in the eye with one. It's just too bad, isn't it? That's one good thing about stricter laws: they make people have more decency.

Good jobs are hard to come by

There comes a terrible time in life when, as an adult, we must move out and get a job. Some will study hard and the college may even get a great job. Most of us will not. And others, like me, will depend on the low level pay of SSI. I am one that supports a Universal Basic Income (a small amount everyone would be paid freely) but that won't be proud or possible until AI, technology, things like robotics, fill in a big hole, requiring far less human work, yet expanding resources. I pray for it every day, as the homeless no more will be when that day comes.

Much will be expected of you

You must treat others in accordance to the law. Many will go to jail just over common mistakes humans make. You'll be expected to work. You'll be expected to pay your own way. To dress well, to take care of your hygiene, to keep your home clean if you are going to live in sanitary conditions. To make sacrifices for friends. You may even be expected to donate a kidney, to take certain medication, to give an honest effort to make your life better.

You will not always have what you want

There may be many dreams you had to cut short just because they were too pricey, too unrealistic. Yet we all dream, anyway. You may plan something for months, only to see your plans leak the your fingers. There will be things you long for but may go years without, such as a partner or even a friend. You may have a home, but with in a bad neighborhood, you may have a really good meal only once a week, and sometimes find yourself living off of corn meal and rice.

After childhood, things become far more bland

No doubt a child has a deeply rooted fascination would life. I was a kid that every time his parents drive by mc Donald's my heart sank. I wanted a happy meal. Or visiting my childhood friends, hoping we would stop there. I don't think of these things at all anymore. They are just passed by. Video games.. I was fully enveloped in them. Even the 2D games that they were, final fantasy, Zelda, many games, I were very involved in. And candy, too, I was very fond of sugary foods. I used to take iced tea and when it was gone, let the sugar at the bottom slide down into my mouth. Now it's just chug, chug, and intellectualization. There is far stronger emotional response to things as a child. As an adult intelligence and traditional methods are more dominant.

You will sometimes be in great need of things

Such as in need of food. In need of rest, not sleeping well. In need of love and compassion. In need of mercy. In need of forgiveness. Of even cool way for some. In need of a home. Or just a friend. Of tobacco, if you like to smoke. Of beer if its the only thing that gets you by.

People in the world may suffer greatly

Our fellow human beings can be in conditions we could never imagine. And not all the help in the world could save them, not as a whole. Our loved ones may be put through hell, and we may be, too. Things sometimes go from bad to worse quickly. For some life is a little nightmare, believe me.

You will lose some of your loved ones

All I can really say is, keep close to your parents. When you get older, because their days aren't unlimited and you don't want the last thing said to them something that made them feel bad. A person you can know all of your life. Such as a good friend of your father, like a cool person, someone kind and pure. And you'd known him for decades. Then he passes on. And you start to realize, he is gone, your grandparents, too, and you've become yourself that old person, a parent becoming a grandparent, a person coming close to the end of their days. But life is a beautiful thing, isn't it?

10 Ways to improve your life

And in trying to keep things simple, here is a list of objectives and choices that can make your life much better, a list you can always come back to and rely on.

Get what you need

Pay for what you really need before you get too much of what you don't need, finding that you will go days, weeks, or even months without it. Whatever it is. It can be food most of all, but could be a better bed pillow and cover, good enough entertainment, or anything that brings in good things.

Take chances

You'll never know unless you try. It may take guts sometimes to come before things you consider obstacles, like walls before you. If you are convinced that something is to daunting to bother with, then look at it piece by piece, that like a hill the top is not reached with just one step

Find difference, have variety

When things get to be too much the same, when one thing you are doing is over done, put it in your heart to try something new. Buy things differently collect things differently, do things differently. Look for different things, things new to you.

Go places

Take a vacation. Especially away from a highly populated city, if you live in one. Give yourself the chance to be alone awhile. It can be going on vacation anywhere, where you want to go most, even just a hotel out if town beside a bar. Then, too, there are places you can go to in town, such as a movie.

Enjoy things more

Eat slower, as I always recommend. And listen to music with more attention, not with too much focus, but with more involvement. Enjoy your possessions, by at least thinking about them. And just generally look for more pleasure in life.

Focus on the good

We have the habit of paying the most attention to bad things. Turn the tables on that. Notice all the good in your life, "count your blessings," and consider how friends are friends, not how they are rude now and then.

Actively improve things

Whatever you can make better, make better. Down to the detail. Find one thing to improve and put your all into it, making things a little better here, a little better there, until your everyday life has become far better than it was before.

Rest when you need to

I'm the kind of person who works a lot and rests a little. But then again, I don't consider my work too difficult to begin with. If we never slept, then our schedules would be less workable. Without rest we do not rejuvenate. There are no end to things. Sometimes the best thing you can do is to just sit quietly, because it reduces a lot of stress.

Take care of your body

Be clean. Be in shape. Eat well. Keep yourself as healthy as can be. I'd have to say so hypocritically though. I'm not saying what I do, however, but just something that must be done to live long and well. By exercising a person does him/herself a lot of good.

Tend to your responsibilities

Living irresponsibly can cause a lot of difficulty and grief for a person. Life isn't a free ride. Jobs are necessary, caring for your children, too, if you have them. To be law abiding, to treat others fairly. By keeping responsibilities your life will be kept free and without punishment.

Avoid unnecessary arguments

If someone is too closed minded to get through to, then give up. Drop the matter and leave. Even pretend to agree with them. Let them carry their own incorrect thinking. Let them carry it wherever they go. And if someone makes you angry the ask yourself if you should have a ruined day over it, or even a half hour, instead, choose to live well, not being hampered by a person outside your in self.

The way I've seen things improve in life

My first internet was dial up. It came from a telephone cord, one that we used to use for home bound phones. My first computer was a windows 95. Later, a windows 98. It had 4 gigs of hard drive space, much less than this small smart phone in my hands. I tried to watch a music video on that computer with dial up. It took several minutes just to pass a few frames. Then one day I got cable internet, a new thing that uses cable cords instead of a phone line. I downloaded a song after it was hooked up. It downloaded a song in five seconds. I was speechless. On dial up downloading a song took an hour or more.

On my old computer I used to type. But lacked any real reason to since I could publish my books online at that time. Before that I had a mechanical type writer. So at least it was an improvement.

But I was more of a musician at that time. My earliest music software didn't do what I thought it would: to notate and print on staff. I could find such a software anywhere. I thought that one would (Sony Acid Studio) but a few years later notation software became available and I purchased it.. would a money order, back when money orders could still be used online.

I could hear for the first time music I'd written, print it out, and with the next version of "print music" you could turn your notated music into mp3 files.

Let's go back a short time when the only phones were in homes. Many people had cell phones in the late 90s, most did by 2005 I'd say. At first they could only call and text. They had very lousy web browsers. They had no apps, like, oh, a calculator or calendar maybe, but nothing beyond that.

I went from cassette tapes to CDs from the time of the late 80s to the early 90s. We had mix tapes that mostly held music gotten from the radio. CDs came out. You could soon find used ones.. that were overpriced. New ones, more so. You had about 8-10 songs per CD, and nothing more. Computer gained the ability to burn CDs, and most people wouldn't buy any new computer without a CD-r drive (to make CDs.)

Let's talk about TVs! My first TV was in the late 80s. It was a thirteen inch black and white TV. I played my Nintendo on it, and went from antenna TV to cable TV. Later I'd gotten a 19 inch TV or two. And a VCR for it. TVs were very, very heavy. The last CRT (fat) TV I had was a damn monster. 32 inch and 200 pounds.

As with VCRs to DVD, Blu Ray, CDs, disk based data, it has stuck around to this day. But for how much longer, who knows. The only thing that seems to be able to replace it is downloadable data. Memory cards cost more than CDs. But downloadable content doesn't cost it's seller anything.

Moving onto video games, I had friends that had very old Atari things. My father had an Atari, an Odyssey, and later a Nintendo. My parents apart from my divorced father gave me a Nintendo. And a game boy at about the same time. I loved it to death. I'd play it all the time. To me graphics couldn't get much better. But then one day while at Walmart I saw a super Nintendo on display. Mario world was on it. I was speechless. The graphics for it was amazing.

And the same feeling hit me again, every time. As I was playing "Ocarina of Time" on the Nintendo 64, and after that Final Fantasy 8 on PlayStation, and counting onto the current generation of systems.

Printers began as things that printed black and white crude I'm ages, boxy ones, that was it. They developed to print color images, but we're still slow. They got quicker after that, and incorporated copying and scanning. As a teenager the only copy machines were in offices. I'd sneak into the copy machine room at school and makes copies, like of cassette tape inserts. Now they can do things like make stickers. Much better than that, as 3D printers have come about, and who knows what that will lead to. It has a lot of potential.

It is far more affordable now to have a small movie theater in the home thanks to digital projectors becoming much cheaper. Those produce a hundred inch screen, or even better.

TV now incorporates internet. And sites like You Tube has anything you could wish to see. Before that we'd gone from regular cable to digital cable adding hundreds of channels. And now things are much easier to view "on demand."

So what good does the future hold? One can only imagine, and those that do make it happen.

Hateful people mock you because..

  1. They want to strip you down.

  2. They want you to be lesser than them, but you are not

  3. They've deemed you better than them

  4. They don't want anyone to have peace

  5. They feel defenseless

  6. They are jealous if you

  7. Their standards are too high. They have to follow them, but can't themselves.

  8. Out of habit they can't get by otherwise.

  9. They see you as a threat.

  10. They are miserable.

Really this all makes sense, doesn't it? It's the best reason not to be too bothered by obnoxious people. They want you to be agitated and moved by them. They'd probably have gotten little attention in life, have been abused, but they put it on themselves to become the person they are. There's no saving them.

People crave chaos and destruction

When things had been peaceful for a long time a human being would begin to look wherever they can for enemies. Something may be a slight problem, a minor nuisance that they magnify, over inflate. They want a super thing as to overcome and defeat, whether or not it is realistically there. They want a thing to champion. They want the freedom to come as close to totally destroying it as possible, using as many means are as legal, but often in unlawful ways as well.

One country may behave ethically, only going to war against things such as dictatorships and especially when they are acting cruelly inhumane. Nevertheless there are countries that just want to go to war for the sake of going to war, ethical reason be damned. After all, what power is out a people who never use it? The greatest pride of a nation comes from it's total might.

Without problems to deal with things become too comfortable and boring.

And things can be totally peaceful and certainly good enough. But some will never rest until the imaginary dragon they created is slain. They are great knights. They've saved the kingdom. They'll get the reward. So they dream and assume. But if things are good enough, then they should be left alone.

"No news is good news," and "no good news is news." You may ask yourself why people want to see the tragedy of others. Does that make them feel relatively better or does it come from being blood thirsty? Maybe both?

Bearing other people's problems

A person could do their best to help others, and some have even gone so far as to give them a room in their home. Some had let them stay and watch over the place on vacation, and soon find after returning that drugs are scattered everywhere, that the place is a filthy mess, plumbing stopped up, and they refuse to leave. In many areas of this nation they can only be forced out through court established eviction.

Then there are the many, many people that get by on hand outs from others, always going far and wide to ask for things like money, food and cigarettes. I've been around way too many people like this. I don't even let them like their cigarettes with my lighter. They do have money, but it is squandered, a lighter costs a dollar. They can get their own. It's not like these people ever give me anything either. So they can't very well call me selfish.

People ask me to use my phone, to share what I have, etc., And each and every time I say no. They get a bit pissed and walk away. This morning someone asked to use my lighter while I was inside this house, like I was expected to drop everything I was doing. They kind of get shamed that even their best hustling produces nothing from me.

If you look into the psychology of it, they are spending all of their money on more expensive things, better brands, junk food, and everything but their real needs. So they have good things the first few days, maybe a week at best, and then run out of money, looking every day and every hour for things they could easily afford..

Unrealistic expectations can really set people off, as it should. That is the person breaking through. Some feel they must the great strength, and will pour forth in indignation, if they are constantly pestered by others. While attending a "PSR" group many years ago, we all had chores there. The person in charge there would look over what you did. And would, very strangely, complain about non existing problems. Would see things not there. She was afraid of inspectors coming in and denying a permit to serve food. She admitted it to being a fear of hers. And I living at one group home they paid close attention to chore performance, too. Then I moved into another group home, where they didn't care much, as long as the person assigned to take out the trash did so, or if the floors were very messy and needed to be mopped, or filling the dishwasher. But that made up the least of all things done. The rest were ignored all together. And now I am living I a board and care. I don't have to lift my finger for anything. The staff cooks and cleans everything. Including laundry. I might as well be rich. Like I always say, being mentally ill in America is to be in a sort of upper middle class.

Ways to impart the powers of heaven down upon you

These are ways to be in the best position in the universe. To strike a string accord to greater destiny and fate. To be upheld by higher powers.

Dress well

By dressing well you will be desired by greater and better company. By appearing as a person of style and class you will be far more respected. Those that dress like slobs and smell bad would be removed quickly from people in higher social rankings.

Be unique

Think not the other people but with your own mind, as much as that can be done. Be of your own influence careful of any outside changes of your mentality. Dress uniquely too, somewhat, but not bizarre. Be an element if difference.

Have a certain purpose

Not just any purpose will do. Consider the world a stage, and behind it a movie. Behind that, a script. Make the one that people want to be in and have unfold, just like Jesus did. This purpose must cause the best change possible, as people desire the most. Play the part correctly. Don't stray too far from what others would have you be. If you do change that part, do so only for your in good, and do so subtly.

Be well received by the good, hated by the bad

Be controversial. But more than anything, be firm and well situated in your position. As long as you remain blameless, you will remain justified. Gather up a small group that detests you at least, and call them all out, one by one, separating the supporter from the detractor, and placing them against each other.

Be a propagator of change

Be an element of change. One desired, one easy and readily acted upon, yet producing good results, making you one that is dependable in making better things come about, and so as such a master in the course of things that people will go straight to for newer and better things.

Reward yourself

Save the best reward for good work done. For the end of the day when done. Give yourself a reward, and the world itself will reward you for what you do. Your work will continue.

Be interesting

Be the person that everyone talks about and give them lots of things to talk about. Don't be too strange, though. You don't want to appear weird or eccentric. Paint yourself well and present yourself accordingly. Discuss interesting topics, ones that after heard, are easily brought up and discussed by others. Things like any good speaker would do. Some speakers discuss catchy things that are passed along far and wide. Some people discuss things very boring and difficult to understand.

Create things that will last

As they best represent you according to all these things that have been said. You will be talking to others through them, essentially, instead of just being heard in person. These could include books, videos, posts, and things such as that.

Ways to reduce fear worry and stress

Being focused on something else

I used to count the days until pay day. It had been the worst compulsion of my life. I'd budget on paper endlessly all the things I wanted, I effect spending the money before I got it. But then I began to write books. And now pay day suddenly creeps up in me. The same can certainly be true for you, too, with whatever you choose to do and focus on.

Not over estimating something

Try your best not to magnify a situation. Some would take a magnifying glass and stare through it. They even want a better magnifying glass. To "make a mountain out of a mole hill" can increase worries, fears, and stress like nothing else. When in the end a person comes to the problem s/he so dreaded to find they can step right over it and easily pass it by.

Choosing happier things

Just choose to be happy instead. That way the negative thing won't rule over you. At least you'll stay happy. Take any if the goodness you can out of life, anyway, very much in defiance to bad things.

Being content with solutions

It may not be the best solution you have, but if it's good enough then that's all that should matter. If something is mostly fixed than you've done well enough. Look for compromises, look for solutions that will end the best way that it can. But if you've come across a block that can't be moved, all you can do is do your best, and don't worry about it being better than it possibly can.

Reducing the load

Ask for help if needed. Look for resources that can fix the problem, if that applies. Fix it a little at a time before it gets out of hand. Bring yourself into the motivation needed to fix the problem.

Taking it as it comes, not before then

You could worry so much that by the time comes you've built up a lot of fear of it. Then you'd be left unready to deal with it as the problem arises. You can't always totally know what you are facing before it happens. To sacrifice the days before might result in even more confounded problem.

The value of a day

When night time and time to sleep comes at the end of the day, I am a little upset. I have to call an end to the day and sleep for many hours before I can rise and begin a new day. And every morning I ride quickly and am thankful to have a whole new day before me.

I eat breakfast as served here. I then start writing. I continue with that for the first four or so hours. Meantime I have a few breaks whether it be to smoke, get a good drive or whatever else. Then when the writing is done I watch online YouTube videos and talk with my friends until the day is done. In my bed I watch my downloaded music videos. Then tell myself again it's all over until tomorrow.

A very good day for me is pay day. I don't have much reason to go out into town without money. When I have money I go to a few places, and the day I am paid is very exiting to me.

In my youth I played video games very often, and long periods. I may pick up a book sometimes and read it. While I jail the only book I read was A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. If you aren't in jail or never have been, you should feel very fortunate. You miss music so much that you sing out the lyrics to them all the time, something that all inmates do.

I've had my freedom taken often and in different ways. That's why I want so much to have a presence online, through books, even when I am not myself online.

A day is valuable because only of the value you put into it. It can be just a bunch of boredom for some. People could lay in bed all day. I've been there too. But I have a rule not to lay in bed before the day is done and I'm going to sleep. A rule I easily adhere to. Take into consideration every good thing that the day can bring. You'll find many things, even if you don't, you could find ways to fill it fully of good things. Just make things have greater value in worth to you. Be actively alive.

How to enjoy music

Relate to it

Just as most people like music, music that you can relate to is the best kind.

Listen, don't just hear

Pay attention to it. Be an open listener, not a closed off one.

Imagine or visualize with it

Kind of see images rolling through your mind.

Find the music you really like

If there's no music that you currently like, then keep looking. The more you look the more likely you'll find that one perfect song.

Make it about anything

Even if the song is about one particular thing, make it about whatever you want it to be about. This one has been very helpful for me. My Christian music, or at least music about God, is pop music, not necessarily Christian music.

A Church member who helps you remember your past

As a long time practice of therapeutic psychology has been remembering things of ones past, to resurface and approach again bad past experiences, I have something here that takes it a good step up.

I created for myself a technique to remember practically anything in my past, quickly and easily. That is to take a pocket dictionary and remember things based on the words you see. The dictionary needs to be small, containing only basic words.

So for example if you see the word "tree" you remember a tree you climbed as a kid, a brand you played with, or anything pertaining to saws, wood, and screws. If you see the word "balloon," the word "pen" the word "shoes," you remember things based on those things. I for example remember first seeing plastic balloons at a supermarket, and that pulls up other memories as well, like seeing a long row of piñatas. I even remember a spider Man piñata, which has me remember a spider Man blanket I owned.

This is done well enough solo, but the way that a person, a kind if Church member, could help you is by making it less random. They could be trained to know a kind of memory synonym for you. That is to say, they can put the pieces together better than could be done looking at random words. They'll instead guide you from memory to nearby memories just by saying the next relevant word one word at a time.

Dignity

People have a good and accurate sense of dignity. They are very sensitive to things that are not dignified. Times will others hurt their dignity. Human rights are based much on it. Rights given through constitutions, they are their largely to preserve the dignity of others. In fact it is well said to say that dignity should be a right itself to the people. To not have a government that shames them, ridicules them, obnoxiously interferes in their lives, etc., I say human sign should be a right. The rights of the Constitution are based on rights that can't really be defined, anyway, for a nation's people to be happy and prosperous government, as last ng as and as much as they are upheld. For example, the freedom of religion. It's foolish and really pointless to restrict religion. Because people will fight tooth and nail for their religious life. Freedom of speech and self defense, freedom of privacy and such things keep a nation's people sincerely patriotic. It's people are known in truth. They'll have no reason to take over the government, the government that preserves dignity and basic human rights.

But u fortunately many people have become quite spoiled. They expect more from the government than they should. The government has become like a parent. Tending to every need. This is an unfortunate result in people-pleasers politics. A politician is voted in. A politician is their based on the needs of the people. So the politicians that succeed are the ones who the biggest gifts. And things have become quite costly.

I'd appreciate a harder does of indifference and non interference. But the politicians and governmental leaders have become like our doctors, patching up the smallest scratches.

A person has a reduction in choices. They are restricted in many ways. This before Ys is "their" government. One in which they've created all the world around. Only they have permission to add to it, to change it, to remove it—whatever those may be. Buildings, libraries, construction work, lakes and permits, education, etc. That's their trash can. Take it to their dump. That's their bench, don't stay too long, this is their help office and funds. The contents of any place belongs to the government. You can't add to it, change it, or remove it. And it all comes at a high tax cost.

Respect and self respect

An instance of pure disrespect can bring wrath upon you, I spoken to the perfectly wrong person. Many have an open aggression against the police, but that aggression is futile, even entirely counter productive.

Some would take from you, see that they don't.

Some would use you, see that they don't.

Some would offend you verbally, and pick your battles carefully. But always make tour presence known. Stand strong. Show strength, even be it in few words.

People that gossip.. no good thing is heard by the ease dropper. If you aren't sure what someone said, assume it was nothing bad. You couldn't know anyway.

Have high standards, project yourself as superiorly as possible. And as strong as possible, even subtly. Fewer words can say so much more. Leave others guessing. Don't try to prove that they'd be better off leaving you alone. Don't be a kind if clown that firms and rages. They'll have found just what they are looking for.. a funny show.

Money in the pocket

I may have a few parts to go, but I'm about to have enough to put a new computer together. I'm a kind of nearly done guy. I am not so desperate to finish, as then I couldn't hold the thought of nearly being done.

With a little change in the pocket I can always be going somewhere. And not until my desire boils over I will. Some of the best things are very cheap. And the more you look or where you look helps, a lot. Even today the dollar gets a lot.. on eBay, from China. All sorts of one dollar things. Even if it us just a sticker from a machine.

To make ends meet I sell things to my friends. Just anything worth a quarter or more. Everyday I get at least enough for a soda. And I'm fine with that. My best friends have money for me, no doubt. That is my idea relationship

Come unto me

My relationship with people is rich and diverse. I am very socially experienced. And I also have a close connection to more spiritual beings.. "spiritual" referring to higher beings, higher powers, people up several notches than we are, in regards to existence. And it has been my life long pursuit to do exactly what I am doing now, to write books, ones of a religious and philosophical nature. And I have been made to do so "created" to do so.

I can say honestly that spiritual powers do exist. And I have communicated with them and seen them, not in a ghost house. Not in a grave yard. Not just during some sort of ritual on Halloween, but in real life—right our in the open, sometimes, I've seen and talked to them when others could not.

And they've guided me into what I'm doing today. They taught me what teach, and they've set up conditions in which I've learned the greatest things, to pass along to you, my readers.

My religion can make the best, the strongest, the most different, and the greatest change. Given enough supporters it can be greater than even Christianity. It would make just as a string difference in the world. With my resignation from salvation, I would be the Devil's Son, a being of just as much magnitude as Christ, God's Son. If I could be anything, to have any role, it is that one that I tirelessly try to become. And it comes at an unimaginably difficult price. Things I've suffered through..

I call upon my people to be in my life. To support my ideas, to take them far and wide. To begin the Devil's Gospel of The Devil's age. Using my books, these 40 I'll be creating and distributing freely, kept in public domain, allowing people to use them for whatever they wish to.

I think together we can do this. Christian Satanism particularly. Every time the topic is brought up people have a difficult time ignoring it, that it has been made the way it is, such a highly specialized and unique form of Satanism, one that Christians or Satanists are intolerable for, taken as pure hypocrisy sometimes. Something that has to answer a lot of questions before it is understood. The first "gray" religion, one that the world really needs and is ready for, can be quite successful.

Ways to establish trust

To gain the trust of others, to be kept believed in, to make friendships stronger, follow these:

Don't lie

As even the first time you are caught lying you may never be believed again.

Don't over exaggerate

Telling someone something more subtly will leave them putting it all together themselves. If so something is great, don't explain it, like how it should be believed to be great. Leave that to them. No body is proud of someone who brags.

Don't talk behind a person's back

Things have a way of getting back at people. Things are sure a way that people want to be popular, sure, but also that people want others to be unpopular and inferior. They'll let others know that when others think so. They'll relay that information back to others.

Don't stab someone in the back. That'll murder your friendship.

Keep secrets

A person can be very fond of you if they can be sure that whatever they tell you is kept secret. Some places and situations strongly call for it. Just like a therapist is a friend you can tell anything to, without it being shared with others.

Be open

If you've got nothing to hide then you will be seen for who you are, not leaving people second guessing these things. Something's should be kept secret, sure, but being open toward other things is good in a friendship.

Do what you say you will/keep promises

I'd say it's the most important one. People could hope on you and if you fail to do what you say you will then their feelings could be badly damaged. I say to not forespeak at all but if you must, make every effort to see it through.

Reasons why people give up

Maybe if you know the reasons why you can prevent it from happening to you.

It's too much work

This can be reduced by working easier, to not over load yourself or your schedule. To fit it in your day better. By approaching it more lightly. To not let your mind ruminate over it, at any cost.

Rather be doing other things/it's boring

Set aside the better things for when you are done. Because if you give yourself the option if doing other things any time meanwhile, you'll choose to do those. Reward yourself with those things that come afterward. Realizing it may be boring now, but could lead to a better future.

Failed to see and desire the result

You've got to remind yourself quite often what it is all for. Don't convince yourself that it means nothing, either when you are not sure it doesn't or aren't sure at how much it could be. We work according to desire to be rewarded by it. Put your heart on those things all the time meanwhile.

Think it won't amount to anything

Maybe it won't. But you won't know unless you've tried. Trying hard, each day, could lead you to better places. It can be late in work that you begin to think maybe it won't lead to anything. But success takes time. The result may not be immediate.

Someone doesn't approve

Such as parents who want you to follow in their footsteps. Or a partner who doesn't want you to work (usually a sexist person or religious bigot) And unfortunately some people in some areas are prohibited from certain occupations, based on things like gender and race. That's terrible, and all I can say is, you may have to move far away to find your dreams.

Lack of resources

Some things you wish to achieve can be very costly. Such as being a musician, as musical instruments are generally expensive. Or maybe you wish to work on computers but need expensive parts to start off. Or a business that needs a loan, a load if cash to set up. I imagine these things can be quite costly.

Not sure about it

With lack of knowledge to what you wish to do, particularly things that require a lot if education, sure as computer programming, a person can face something very daunting. Most people will only learn a few lessons before they give up. I've seen that often, including with myself. It maybe you are just nit totally sure that's what you wish to do. In either case, if you choose to do something difficult, be sure that's what you want: because it will be.

Stack the deck in your favor

These are the ways of the advantageous

By having a lot of money

This can make an enormous difference. Those with money have lawyers. They don't have to do things that could bring them trouble. That's more of a poor persons unfortunate depravity. You can much easier voice concerns if you are wealthy, having the money to do so.

By being needed/depended on

A person is careful to not bite the hand that feeds. Those that don't strictly follow a prescribed method toward you could be cut off and removed. Those that you give unto will be at your side, will support you.

By being blameless, without fault

By living justly.. without a criminal record, without being at fault, will remain justified, will be preserved far more than the actively criminal behaved. If you have nothing to be blamed for, you'll be propped up.

Being among friends, those who will protect you

Go about more freely this way. Have witnesses all the while, as you may need them. Have them as help, too, accomplishing what you wish to.

Being on the better side

Having a higher social status can make all the difference. Being a police officer could help you a lot, socially, as the government will protect you, as long as you are not blatantly corrupt. But any good social status will help you in life, as long as you are doing no harm.

Choosing the high ground

Don't put the law into your own hands unless it comes at the cost of your life. Bring them into punishment as by the law. It takes two to tango, unless you are not dancing along with them.

Through fame

Fame can get you into trouble if you say or do the wrong thing. Like many things on this list it all depends on a blameless lifestyle. But for those famous are given shorter jail or prison stays, if at all. And besides, even if they did go to jail they've have a lot of money inside like towards commissary, and people to write to, times to see oneself on TV!

Ways to speak the best of ways

Be discreet/ subtle

Let them fill in the missing pieces, whatever they may be. Make a point without being very clear on it. Make your wishes known in a subtle way, if you must, and are worried about offending someone.

Make your point more easily

By saying just what you need to say, and have it easily understood. Without a flood of details. Say more by saying less. Say things they'll remember. Give them something to think about later instead of laying it all out and forgotten about.

Say complements that no one else does

Especially any that you sense they are looking for. The are obvious, such as with someone wearing new and different clothing, or to those that bring up things often. They are probably wanting these to be acknowledged.

Boost that ego

Compliment them. Show your "interest" in them. Assure them that you have such a high opinion of them (more than anyone else does) and tell them the good they are, time to time. But you may want to lace that with a pinch of disapproval, like "yeah you are doing well but you'd be (the best of things) if you (. )

Be influential

Champion a cause. Present it to others, and you can work together to get good things done, things the world may need, and are not doing otherwise. Have your tastes shared with others. Have your more important ideas presented to them. Offer advice that truly helps others. Just do what you can to make the world better through these.. including (and especially) the special people in your circle.

Be vague

Again, just have others fill in the gaps that are easily filled. Details can be very annoying. And they are often both unneeded or unwanted. They may even fill in the gaps their own neat way, thinking things of you entirely unintended, but good, and you didn't even have to lie.

Be strong and firm

If anyone is simply rude to you than make your place known quickly and easily. It could take only one word, one that makes your place known right there and there, something firmly said. Even if they were to continue that way, deal to them a string hand each time. They'll stop. But overacting does just the opposite.

Be interesting

Not of dull detailed stories. Not bragging. Not saying things of no use to another. But pick from your life the most interesting things and talk about those things. Or things that can make a big difference to others that you know they'd care to hear about. Tell people good things about any given thing. They may themselves see so much good in something they'd never had before. And get the sense of what you think a person may like, and talk about that.

Storing things up, making changes

I discovered in my later years that a people can be strongly fixed on certain issues and unable to removed from them. They try to fix them.. to fix them with extreme precision, yet they remain. They become stuck and trapped. Whatever modern cultural issue that you observe people being heavily caught up and trapped in beware because it may trap you too!

Society produces a cult like thinking g from these. And it's never been so bad. Ideas are expected to be fully committed to and upheld, or a person is met with severe shame, are ostracized, and even condemned.

Escape the cult of thought by keeping an open mind. See people as the phenomenon it is, of a distressed people forced to walk along a rigid path, unable to look to the side, whose gaze is strictly fixed forward, as automatons.

Grasp a greater reality. Focus on that day if change when people are freed of this kind of self policed thought. Be ready for that day. Dream of a day if greater open mindedness, liberating and freedom of thought that will come forth when the usual are at last beaten to death with a hammer.

Be a free thinker ready. And either by instruction or of your own hands, preferably both, be an instigator of worldwide change. Change that once was thought impossible.

Freedom of thought, you'd think, was highly valuable. But ones thoughts can sometimes have themselves condemned. I know the pain of such people. And I pray for the day it will end.

Things may seem like they cannot change. But actually the minds of people overcome thoughts dictated upon them. People refuse to be pigeon holed. And will burst through thought restriction the moment one good and useful person finds a hammer and strikes at it with might.

The responsibly of mentally ill people

Life can be made generally better for mentally ill people depending on where you live. Here in San Francisco there is a good bus system, and if you are attending a clinic and taking medication, living on social security income then you qualify for a bus pass that is free anytime, anywhere.

And medical insurance is given to people who are mentally ill getting SSI, too. That includes any medical help you need: eye exams, glad frames blood tests, health and mental based medication.

Really the only thing expected is that you see a therapist and take medication. That means getting out and going to a mental health clinic once a week. For me it also means doing blood work for my medication, to make sure it isn't harming me. But I've been on it for years, without health problems.

If you are in a group home you are expected to attend "groups," which are lessons concerning mental health.

Depending on where you live you have to refill your own medication. In some places that is taken care of, such as in group homes and board and cares.

If you are in a group home you are expected to do chores, such as take out the garbage, clean the bathrooms, and sweep/mop, general housework shared by the tenants living together.

I'm now I a board and care. Fortunately things are cleaned, clothes are washed, bed is made, new covers put on it regularly. Food is cooked for me, and life generally made better. Most importantly perhaps, medication is given and monitored here. Being schizophrenic medication can make every difference between insanity and sanity, mental instability, and stability. That's all they really ask and the mentally ill have a chance at a good life because of these things, especially medication.

Good things about being alone

That's one thing I miss. And you don't know what you have until it's gone, especially in this instance. A city is something you can call a "loud" place. You are surrounded in big cities by a thick layer of people in every direction. Kind of makes you feel stuck. I can't go out side and point in every direction there's no one there, no one there, there, or there. It's just me. Any time I walk somewhere it us never alone. There are crowds on the sidewalk at all times. When I lived in a small town it wasn't that way. There were often no one in a mile distance from where and to I walked.

When I was young my family sat beside a small fire in the back yard. And we'd go places, like to our cabin in the woods and hills, with no one around. And to think back at that, it feels peaceful.

I lived alone throughout my 20s. I had my own room, my own apartment in fact. And it was good in one way, bad in another. I never had anyone over. I was lonely. The kind of guy that wrote emails every minute strongly craving a response.. a sad lot. But starting at about age 33, I never lived alone. I had started living with others. I was socially shy at first. Not very socially versed. Through the last few years I have lived with a roommate, at my father's home, while homeless afterward, always around the public in San Francisco, and in jail a year, in a mental hospital for a year, sharing a room with others, in a group home, two of them, with roommates too, and now I a board and care. But it isn't just roommates. It is living in places with 16 or more people inside, always around.

And I'm happy to live with others. I'd like my in room though, but I just don't have that kind of money. Mentally ill people must live with others to afford better places. But oh how wonderful it would be to get away for awhile, to have privacy, the kind where I can talk to myself! To hear myself again!

Things to live for

Part Two and a reiteration

From material well being

Not lacking things you want or need. You may find yourself not wanting something you own (more like just not appreciating it) but often people will just feel better by not wanting to be without it. As soon as you sell it or give it away, then you want it back. Material well being can certainly give the most happiness in life.. be it good entertainment, a good TV, something to do (materials needed to work) video game stuff, internet access, and even a good blanket and bed.

Good food

For those that don't get high, food is one if the most stimulating things. It gives us taste, as many tastes that are without number. I'm lucky, I eat junk food all the time, but remain skinny! I think it's because I eat so slowly. Good pizza before you in a restaurant, fries, fried things, fir me things like fried mushrooms with ranch sauce and a Reuben Sandwich, is some of the best things in life.

Good music

I had a friend that could sit and listen to music from the radio with attention. But most of the people I've known with their little radios just have it on. And in a very empty headed way, nothing comes in and nothing goes out. While I was committed for a year I was allowed a pocket radio with earbuds. I became very interested in music, very much so. I had to, or else be without any good thing. At night for an hour before I go to bed, I lay down and watch music videos. Can be rather enjoyable!

Good clothes

"Clothes make the man," those that are dressed well feel better. They go about I greater confidence. For some that is all that they need. Can be quite fun to sort through all of the clothing in any given store. The collection of certain types, like retro or nostalgic based shirts, is never done.

Good entertainment

Like a new movie coming out. A new song from a favorite band. A new video game. A new book. An old movie idea remade. A long awaited sequel. For me, Star Wars, for some Star Trek. For others, a new Stephen King movie. For me, particularly, a good movie based on the books of Anne Rice. And for me a new Final Fantasy game would brighten up my day a hundred watts if I see these advertised. As is typical for people. To just be sitting some day and there it is! Going through a book store, seeing a long awaited title, things like that can be exiting.

Peace

Some people are caught up with so much hectic things in life. The best thing that can happen to them is a little peace and quite. Hopefully that's just around the corner for them. If not, perhaps they should set it up. Couples should permit it, that they can go to a hotel for some privacy and alone time. Just to be in one alone. If you live with a lot if people, or even just a few you are always army everyday, a cheap night or two at a hotel could do you must good.

Fulfilment

Live unto the day that you see your goals completed. Don't fall short on them. Remain with them until they are complete. That it be worth as much as it can be, do something that takes hard work, or at least a long time, doing the best that you can. You'll have received the reward of fulfillment if you do. This can come in other regards too: fulfilment of any goal of any kind. Accomplishment, having completed with what you've set out to do. To make yourself into what you wanted to become. To get in life where you wanted to be.

Satisfaction

The trick of this is appreciation. Other tricks to it is desire, getting what you want, looking for it, knowing it for the good of what it is, using it as well and as fully as possible. To not waste anything. To not over use anything. To keep it, to not give it away or sell it. To increase the things you want as long as they are wanted, but no further. To have many choices on what to get and to be able to get them.

Gratitude

Without being thankful, you aren't thankful! Appreciation for things keep in mind the goodness of things. It can help you focus on the good and will bond you closer to them. As long as that appreciation is real and sincere. So take into account all the good things in life and you will have left many doors open.

Eagerness

You must find what you like to do and do that. But not only that, but you have to do that the best way you like to. To not just do a favorite thing, but to also do it the most desirable way. As many things can be done very many different ways. You e just got to find the way you enjoy doing it the most. There is goodness I anticipating things. There is goodness I letting desire pile up and concentrate. To see ahead if time the best things that are to come will leave you going forward vigorously and passionately.

Passion

It can help to know why something you do is valuable and highly rewarding. To understand the good that may come from what you are doing. To idealize the best possible result if what you are doing. Along with that have pride, reward yourself, and continue to work each day until you have arrived at the place you wish to be, a place long sought after by many people, who only the passionate received.

Places left to go

You may never really ask yourself seriously "I wonder what it would be like to go to Egypt. Or the Netherlands." And you may have just not asked yourself that simply because going there could be expensive and somewhat daunting.. getting a pass port, traveling so far, staying where, etc., A rich person is much more likely to ask her or himself that. But most if us feel there is no reason to bother answering those questions. I recommend you ask yourself questions like that, anyway.

But besides that, as part if it in some other cases too, maybe, ask yourself what different areas and places would be good to go too, including bear by places.

Things left to collect

Collecting things gives us something to focus on. It gives us direction. It gives us greater control of the future. And if we don't have control over the future, we haven't much of a soul. We just do. We don't cause. Collecting things can bring pride. To have all of any one thing can be very satisfying. And to have gotten all of it can bring about material accomplishment. Don't bother asking why you collect, those are good enough reasons. You don't have to read all the comics or play all the games. That's not what collecting is really about. But of course if you want to both collect and use that collection, that's fine too, it's just that the two are perfectly fine separated. Don't feel like it has to be anything more than a collection.

Habits to continue enjoying

That reminds me I think I'll go smoke a cigarette. If you are not longing for life, if you just want a quicker trip, to be along for the ride, you go ahead and drink and eat what you want, and have any unhealthy habit you desire. Believe it or not some people want things like cancer. Anything that will get things done and over with.. unfortunately or fortunately, the most pleasurable things are the most damning. God has certainly left us with that burden.

Things left to learn

Never stop learning. Try to learn one thing each day, a new thing everyday, until you are very knowledgeable toward a lot of things. Don't be a person of statistical facts, facts-of things, so much as applicable knowledge that can be used toward creation. Leave the world with the best things you can through these. Make money off of them if you at all can. Unless you are already contacted with the money you have and just wish to contribute, freely, like it is with me.

New things to do/things not yet done

Some people late in age compile a "bucket list" that has listed in it a number of things they want to do before they pass on. I guess the earlier age it is made, though, the better. Coming up with a large list of things checked off in any order that would be great experiences.. seems like that's something everyone would do. It can also be a much easier list that is planned to be completed in a month or so, far sooner than "before death."

New things to experience

Whatever it is for you that you enjoy the most do more of. Be engaged in their continual use. Find the thing that is especially well for you and do it. If it is something you haven't done in a long time consider coming back to it, regaining what may have otherwise been lost by you. Go to a beach if it's never been done, a favor city, one you like but have never been to. Try new things that are popularly good. Any new good and desirable trend, fir example.

New things to come (technologically and scientifically)

This one I like particularly well. Science and technology can develop very rapidly. New things are always around the corner. Take a look around! Look for what's to come and where it came from. For some people the most exciting thing is a new video game console. For others, a new phone. Some are very interested in new technology coming about, such as driverless cars and 3D printers. Drones, home computers that answer questions and such. Some of these begin very expensive. But they can be counted on to become cheaper. There is so much developing all around us, and even with the closest inspection of it we have no idea just how much is being done, even daily.

New things to come (socially)

My favorite thing would be "universal income," which is when the government pays every citizen a basic income. That can become very practical when AI and robotics have taken over most regular jobs. These thoughtless and emotionless machines would do all the work, precisely, without question. You could say that the latest and greatest social change can from internet, as all are now connected via computer. And that connection is becoming more realistic and immersive all the time, with VR on the way, and holograms to follow it.

New relationships

Who knows who you will meet. You may even meet them at any time, any day, and find them to be the perfect person for you. Be it a friend or partner. Maybe you may find a group to work on projects with. Form a band. Form a bond. Form a better social circle, or meet an incredible person online. You can do this by attending groups in town, or by signing up to Epal sites, things like that.

Relationships

People are depending on your continued presence among them. If you end your life you will have taken that option from them, in a way that they'll never get it back. They would then just be left with memories and pain. In effect the strongest and most virtual thing you can do is be stong and live.. a very self sacrificial thing itself. The right self sacrifice, determined living, rather than taken yourself from them.

Simply the beauty of life

Isn't life such an incredibly wonderful thing?

Some of the best ways to live life

As an entrepreneur

A person whose thoughts are driven toward one great idea. To come up with that one great idea knowing it could change their life entirely. Patented things remains a lesser venture into success compared to many other methods to do so: becoming a famous singer, painting a well received book, winning the lottery, writing a best seller. Yet coming up with a very good patent is more likely to make you rich.

As a business person or salesman

Such easy work! Yet so much more profitable than working for others who own them! I am a salesman at heart. Some people grab things at second hand stores and sell them online. The prices are far cheaper in these places. I got my own fair things to sell before. Selling things more privately has gotten much easier with the advent of internet. I would make a 50 cent store.

As a musician

As a person living on the road. And if popular, are given rides in a bus. And can indulge in certain things meanwhile. It's the chance to express oneself on stage, capable of gaining great notoriety and wealth as a result.

As a writer

If you are a writer you can work anywhere. I work on my phone. I can be anywhere to do so: at an office, at a restaurant, just before court, in my living room, outside, or in my bed. If I was a musician, there's a keyboard or something, possibly a loud instrument, before a microphone. And I can't take out a canvas and get to painting anywhere other than my home. Even while homeless I was a writer. All I needed was a pen and paper, and a plastic bottle.

As a game programmer

This was a dream of my generation. We all wanted to be game makers, us children of the late 80s and early 90s. Now it isn't so much programing. Games can be made with specialized software, including new games for the old systems we loved. To make the newest games for the newest system isn't possible for just one programmer, but fortunately there is a market for old games, a large one.

As a gamer

I hope someday that video game competitions become a real and much watched sport. I believe that they will. It would be great to pop into a bar to see two adults competing at a good game. In the meantime there is a lot of it online. Those that can enjoy a video game, do so a lot. So much that they simply lack nothing to do. They are engaged in them fully, throughout the day. That is the only entertainment I know that does that, and so well. There are leisure games for those that don't wish to be so committed. Games like video game sports games, video game board it card games, racing, fighting, and puzzle games that you can play from start to finish really quickly.

As a magician

Those that can believe, have a lot to believe in, regarding this. If you already believe in some sort of religion, believing in magic isn't a far step away. To do spells, perform rituals, can be a very fascinating thing for those who truly believe in what they are doing. Be it Tarot cards, astrology, Ouija boards as lighter habits, or things more involving, it can be a fascinating thing.

As a gypsy

In other words, to wander around, never in one place for very long. Usually with a group, made up with a small circle of acquaintances who know how to get money from place to place. You would have to be content with not having much, but some people get by more happily that way. I almost took off with one at one time in my life. This group that went city to city, state to state, having little food, no electronics, but a lot if things like tents and clothes getting cheap permits and having water, fish, and simple but necessary things. They'd do things like perform music for the public.

As one that feasts, one of revelry

Any time is a good time for a good banquet of food! Whether it be on a small scale or a large one. And many families and group of friends choose to do so, regularly, full of music, food, and good drinks. They aren't parties so much as eating occasions. I think a party is more of a dancing and dart throwing occupation. I think a four say feast would be cool as hell. To, in one area, have the best food, in another, listen to live music, maybe pre recorded songs here and there. And then just a place to sleep. Awakening when I want to, enjoying these things be it day or night.

As a hedonist

The rule to being a true hedonist is, simply, "enjoy as much and as fully as possible," whether they be things if a sexual nature, food, or any sort of revelry. To live a life according to great pleasure, that's the only definition and description it needs. To be like one if the Romans. Which, compared to the ancient Romans, all are a bunch of over sensitive prudes!

As a wealthy person

It's so untrue to say money doesn't make you happy. That comes out of a mouth that's trying to be smart, or just as something that should lack common sense. Having a small movie theater in your home, bathing in a Jacuzzi, having the best and newest things, how much life is easier trough servants that cook and drive you anywhere- that can make you incredibly happy! It is the most major goal for most people. Even more desirable than great fame. But how will you get there? I've answer that question a few times, the rest depends on your hard work to make it happen, but it may not be as unfeasible as you think.

Total Accumulation

A soul is made on Earth. At death, is released into the life you made of it. We are here on Earth to design our soul. I am here to help you desire it.

We pour forth things into our souls all of our life. We scrub it, we wash and cleanse it during that time. We put into it and take out of it. We change pre-existing things to accommodate us better, sometimes fixing things, other times replacing things.

We have been sent here based largely on privilege, or a lack thereof, depending on our worth, expectations of us before we arrive, and things of that nature.

If we have done a good and full work, for better or worse, we will be rewarded with more authority and responsibilities in the next life.

Land of the lost

DO NOT play along with others in this wicked world. DO NOT be active in it's wickedness.

People have lost sense of their selves at a very intricate level. They are wrapped up and saturated with certain issues, and their thinking is limited to those things, being unable to see past them. This is due to a great sin: selfish concerns over ones own issues, whatever they are based on. And they are willing to condemn others over those principles and issues. Unrealistic things are expected from people, and others as a consequence for sure, and they are chained up slaves because if this.

Society has created a kind of cult-mentality. One that defines what a person is to think about, with so much stress and emphasis on these things as to confine them into a prison of thought.

If they have any relief it is with momentary pleasure. For them it is the only escape.

We will have to let this run it's course. Take my teachings as a freedom provided unto you. Do not feel like you have to prop up and fight for an impersonal cause. For another well being, of a kind, as a thing that has nothing to do with you. Let this be your culture, and don't be forced or made to uphold and implement greatness to that of another, whose concerns should be entirely their own.

Be self thinking in all you know. Don't let any one else tell you what should concern you and what you should be thinking about, if it is from the cult mentality that people are forcing upon people in today's world. I have given in my writings better things to think about, things that can free you from indoctrination into the cult mentality of modern society.

Keep at a distance from these people, do not follow after them, do not have your thoughts be made or defined by them. They are on a destructive path. So much so as to be glaringly apparent with how vicious and murderous they've become.

I hope to claim you, to take you and place you in a safe place. Please trust that I will.

And together let us thrive. And together let us live and think better. And together let us rule over all people, transforming them into a better race.

A summary of what I've taught here:

Better understanding comes from better perspective

The more choices of good things you have that can be done, the more available ways you have to be happy

Living life well means to do the things that make you happiest and to bring those things in. It means to find and appreciate good things in life and to use them.

Understanding the general psychology behind social matters help you with your relationships with people

Sometimes the smallest thing can make the biggest difference. They are then not so small as they seem.

Happiness can be found in material wealth

The world is becoming a better place

Not just any friends will do. A person should choose his or her friends wisely. And sometimes work needs to be done to form and keep a good relationship.

Count your blessings and see the good in all things, magnify it, if at all possible.

Only by desire do we want anything, including to have continual want. And without wanting anything well have nothing we care about.

The more active you are in making life better, the more it will be.

And if nothing else better try to make the current hour you are in the best it can be

And finally, I have taught about all of the basic things in life that make it much better. All of the things we need, and all of the things we want, and things we simply can't do without if life is to be kept good and well.

Conclusion

This has been my first purely therapeutic book. These things I've talked about I use always in my life. And my life is a good one, and my thinking besides. I'm not perfectly equipped psychologically, that comes to a very few if any, and is nit something I've ever observed in another. But as the taught learns more than the teacher, it is reasonable to expect that through my lessons you will do even better than I do, which I'm sure is a wonderful place to be.

I have had a lot taught to me by councilors, therapists, and psychologists whether I needed their teachings or not. I used to spend hours everyday learning from them. Especially in group homes, but also I mental facilities, at PSR groups, and even in jail I was taught by psychologists in classes every day.

I also have a lot of social experience. Having lived with friends, different parents, going to many different schools, having large amounts of friends, also while homeless, in mental hospitals, jail, roommates, groups homes, and now a board and care. So I am very well "socialized" in many different ways. I'm that guy who is not only book smart but also street smart.

These lessons so sometimes came hard, at other times not. I've always filtered out my own advice and the advice of others that did me little or no good. And in the process of this have become a psychologically stable person.. and smart. So I hope that you will take this book to heart as I'm sure it can really help you. And thank you for reading.
