Some Wisdom Learned!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is sad that we pass time on this earth and seldom learn what is expected of us... It appears from my over fifty years of observation; that many things here are cyclic and many are just part of the same system!

This life is much more than just finding things to make you happy! DUH!

If you really do not understand that then we need to talk! Reply or email me!

Lets look at what some of your goals should really be... HUH!

1) Your life like all things on this earth will come to pass...

2) While you waste most of your time in futile persuits, the Eternity rolls on!

3) If you ever get to the point when you seek the real reason for your life; stop pray and listen!

4) No matter what or how much you pile up in this earthly life; only your memories go with you, make them good!

5) Most things on this earth are here to assist or help us to become the best person (spirit) we can become!

6) If you have left God out of your life or have just ignored Him; you still have time to repent and seek Him!!

All of this is not a scare tactic; rather it is the explanation of the Absolute Truth as I have been led to believe...

Remember there is a Kingdom beyond sight of this worldly existance; have you acquired the desire to serve and enter there in?

What are we really looking for!

Traveling our pathway of life, we often forget what we really seak!

Most of the time when we spend looking for answers in our life;

yet what we actually need is comfort!


Life is more about being a helper to those who are placed on our pathway of life

then about the things that we attempt to get!

Core beliefs?

What you should have learned in Kindergarten or First Grade!

Oh where is your proper moral compass?

Sometimes you may want to go back to a simpler time!! Like when you started school...
There are some things that we should learn early on in life! Most of these are the things that form your life's core values... Core values are the basic values you use and depend on to guide your life! HUH!

"It has been said that we learn more proportionally the first few years of our life than in all the rest!"
a True-ism

Most people should have learned the basics of their life by the time they were in Kindergarten... Of course it required that you had someone in your past; who was concerned enough to mentor and nurture you!

I was very fortunate to have people who really loved and supported me in my younger years... All of this was a result of the love shared in my family... I had loving Grandmothers and a supportive Mother! This was the base of my core beliefs... " Thank you Big Mama!"

I came to know the reason and purpose of what is right or wrong in life... This kind of training led the formation of a platform or base which allowed me to steer clear of many of the pitfalls that occur in life... Later when confronted by the temptations or pressured to fall into some evil or unworthy actives; it was no contest, I just did not cave in, because of my early up bringing... {This does not mean that I did not sin or fall short!}

This is the result of being properly brought up, which is more than I can say for many people you meet today... Congratulations to the readers of this blog; as usually the uncouth and selfish people in the world today do not ever read my entries... (Sad but true)


This just goes to show why there are so many unprincipled, undisciplined and selfish people, in the world today... Not because they do not read my blogs, rather they did not get the basic training in their younger years in order to form a proper core belief standard! As you can see it all goes back to having the correct core beliefs to make the important decisions in life!

"Without a moral compass you are much like a leaf blowing in the wind of time, always on the move but never getting to any desired destination!" a True-ism

Sorry I missed out on kindergarten; but did get First Grade @ St Paul's with Sister Rosa Letia. Maybe some of you may remember the Dick and Jane books with Spot the dog... They started out "Look"... As in; " Look see Spot run, run Spot run..." Maybe there is something there we should revisit in our thinking today... Like look!

The rest was to always put your things away, clean up after yourself, no pushing, wait your turn and no talking with out raising your hand to be recognized!

Just a few things we could use to help make the world a better place, HUH!

Dear Mr. President!

Dear Mr. President

Some of "The People" have some concerns which you should consider!

Date: 3/7/2009 08:37:17



As the President it is your duty to try to steer a course for the country which is more than just meeting the interest of a few special interest groups... This blog is meant to help you understand some of the needs of the common people!

" In order to rule successfully; it is necessary for the whole needs of the people be understood!" a True-ism

Most people seldom come to understand the real meaning or purpose of their life... This is where it becomes important to seek the interest of those with whom your life is shared... Each of us has a position or station in life which we alone must live... You now as President must learn to make decisions which effect the entire nation as well as the world...

Some advice to you is to seek the opinion of as many factions and people so that you can make the best valid decisions... It is a true test of leadership for those in power; to recognize that it is only through the will of GOD that each of us can truly function on our pathway of life!

Your position and quest is to try to find the best possible path to follow! Please do not be limited by only those in the government which surround you in Washington! Seek the advice of the people and pray for guidance in all matters!

Best regards;

Citizen Kermit

The Ruin of America

It is unusual to have to post a truth that is of the negative nature! But as a truth barometer it must be done...

The recent passage of the so called "Stimulus Package" will prove to be the unraveling of the so called "American Dream"...

What the enemies of the USA have wanted will come about through this dive into debt... This is beyond any thing the United States has ever jumped into before...

Anyone who supported this will live to express with shame the reason they allowed this to go forward... It is sad to have a major group of citizens come to support a program that will drain many of the dreams and plans of so many Americians...

Fear, Shame and Guilt!

Fear, Shame & Guilt!

Have replaced the key attributes of mankind; Innocence, Dominion and Acceptance!

Date: 11/22/2008 13:18:22

Why do we feel weak, lost, and unaccepted?


Many today know of GOD; but do not have any relationship with HIM!

" But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness to him, and he can not understand them, because they are spiritually apprised!" I Cor. 2:14 KJV. a True-ism

The term " Knowledge " in the western world especially is just a collection of data. Some of the negative emotions people experience due to the lack of a fuller understanding and better relationship with GOD are:

1) Fear of almost everything... We are living in a period of great anxiety.

2) Shame and guilt, when dominated by these emotions, people tend to cover their inner self thus self disclosure is not likely to happen.

One of the main contributions of these feelings is the wave of depression which doubled between 1985 to 1995 and has shown a tenfold increase in the twentieth century in the USA... Much of this is based on the fact that we have too many choices today...

With so much information available in the past hundred years, people tend to become befuddled or over whelmed by the sheer mass of data... We get advice from almost everywhere, do this, or go here, or buy this, or say that, then all the government regulations and laws... It has become a place where you can know a lot but not be available to respond because you do not know which is the right or correct path for you!

The transitional effects of mankind's key attributes; Innocence, Dominion and Acceptance, have become three almost continuous needs in our lives today...

1) Innocence has been replaced for the most part by guilt and shame; which causes the need for a sense of true self worth needs to be restored!

2) Dominion has been replaced by weakness ans a sense of total helplessness; we therefore have a need for strength and self-control evident in the world today.

3) Acceptance was replaced by various forms of rejection; Which makes us want to belong to something, even if it is wrong.

Apart from the Holy Spirit in your life, the greatest power you possess is your ability to choose! Our sense of worth is not a question of our giftedness, talents, intelligence, strength or beauty; it is your sense of personal worth as a child of God!

The human soul was not designed to function as a sovereign master. We are not masters of our fates or even Captains of our souls! Every temptation to live your life independent of God's plan is a one way path toward destruction and loss. Even our best efforts at self control, beyond our personal choice; without the Grace of God, leads only to some type of self perfectionism or a form of legalism which will result in self destruction!

Proton beam on Women's health

Woman's health issue!

Proton beam therapy... Ladies Check it out!

What we have here is a failure to communicate!!


"It seems that there is a big difference between helping people and making money! Usually the money wins..." a True-ism


We try to present the truth on all my blogs, which is not always popular... So be it, the truth is the popular crowd will just have to catch up! It appears to be the same in almost every element of life, medicine, science, politics, money, and personal intercourse!!

Here is a good article on women's health:

Dear Reader,

I know four women who have received radiation treatment for breast cancer.

Unfortunately, I expect you can probably make a similar claim.

That's why the news of a new breast cancer study is so disturbing on two counts: 1) each one of us is likely to have more friends treated with radiation for breast cancer in the future, and 2) each of these friends will likely be at higher risk of developing cancer in the opposite breast.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Handle with care
------------------------------------------------------------------

Radiation is lethal. In fact, Marie Curie – the scientist who discovered radium and directed the first studies in which radiation was used to treat cancer – died from radiation exposure.

In the seven decades since Curie's death, we've become so accustomed to the use of radiation therapy that many people may not even be aware of the dangers linked to radiation's routine use.

In a recent Dutch study, researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute examined post-treatment medical records for more than 7,200 subjects who received radiation therapy for breast cancer. Results showed that younger women with a family history of breast cancer who received radiation after a lumpectomy were three and a half times more likely to develop contralateral breast cancer – cancer in the opposite breast.

The Dutch team also report that women under the age of 45 who received radiation after a lumpectomy were 1.5 times more likely to develop contralateral breast cancer compared to women who received post-mastectomy radiation.

In the Journal of Clinical Oncology, researchers wrote: "This finding should be taken into account when advising breast radiation…to young patients with breast cancer."

------------------------------------------------------------------
Beware business as usual
------------------------------------------------------------------

When a breast cancer patient undergoes lumpectomy or mastectomy, her doctor will almost always recommend radiation as a cautionary measure to kill cancer cells that may not have been caught by initial treatments.

So…what's not quite right with this picture?

I received an e-mail about this study from HSI Panelist Allan Spreen, M.D., who had this to say about radiation and x-rays: "It's never been argued that x-rays cause cancer in living tissue. There even was an original outcry about 'therapeutic' radiation doses for just that reason. Even the medical profession has never argued the issue – they just maintain that the dose is low enough that the carcinogenic effects are too low to be significant (e.g., "You get as much x-rays from the sun..." etc., blah, blah. In fact, no x-rays from the sun reach the earth's surface).

"The party line is that the newer machines use less x-ray exposure. However, nobody will go on record as saying x-rays don't cause cancer – it's been known since the earliest days of roentgenology.

"As an aside, that's why I never let any of my athletes go to a chiropractor who insists on x-rays of the spine – young female athletes already have (from birth) ALL the eggs they're ever going to make, so every x-ray of the pelvis is re-frying the same eggs, over and over..."

------------------------------------------------------------------
Tight target
------------------------------------------------------------------

So if you're a cancer patient, what should you do if your doctor recommends radiation? Ask about proton beam therapy.

In the November issue of the HSI Members Alert, Managing Editor Melissa Hickle discusses proton beam – an innovation that tightens control of radiation treatment. A recent study suggests this therapy significantly reduces risk of secondary cancers.

The answer is blowing in the wind...

Dear FairTax supporters,

Here are four things you can do to save the nation now:

1. Make a contribution the FairTax cause
2. Tell at least two friends about the FairTax now
3. Post a FairTax widget or banner
4. Check out our 2008 Election Guide

At the heart of the financial meltdown now bedeviling Americans is a simple and profoundly ignored fact that does not require an advanced degree in economics to understand: Our government spends more than it takes in—a lot more.

Sure, regulators could have done a better job but, in truth, politicians at every level have frustrated attempts to blow the whistle on bad loans, bad reporting and bad ethics. Why? Because politicians have been buying our votes with our money—and our future earnings—for a long time. And they don't want any interference from those they are "helping."

It's not just the naked bribes represented by "earmarks" for hometown voters; it is new entitlement programs like the prescription drug benefit, new rules governing the behavior of favored banks and investment houses and a headlong rush to buy the votes of the poor by guaranteeing home ownership, irrespective of one's financial ability to repay a loan. Lest we forget, let's also add up all the special tax breaks for favored contributors that have bloated income tax code rules to 67,500 pages. It's a bi-partisan betrayal of our future cloaked as concern for the common good.

Although our nation was founded on the principle that the citizen was sovereign, government spending increases and more and more taxes taken from our earnings, savings and investments have effectively transformed the American citizen into a serf working another's land for the privilege of taking a fraction of the fruits of his or her own labor.

Just Trust Us

"Trust us," we are told. "We have the best interests of the nation at heart." Citizens are now left with no rational choice to protect savings, college plans, and investments but to accept the new aristocracies' trillion dollar picking of our pockets to prop up institutions that must function. It is not the first time in recent years that we have accepted the grasping hand of the federal government in our wallets to avert a disaster not of our making.

In 1983 a "Blue Ribbon" panel of similar leaders including Alan Greenspan, Daniel Patrick Moynihan and others "saved" Social Security from another big collapse by dramatically raising taxes on earnings of up to $97,500 annually. The promise, then, was that Baby Boomers would actually "pre-fund" their own retirement with astoundingly increased taxes, decades ahead of time. It was also promised as relief to the coming generations so they would be free of crippling taxes. Sounded good.

Lo and behold, the trillions of dollars taken in since then—far exceeding promised payments to senior citizens—have since been spent on everything else. Turns out, that it was nothing more than a new tax levied on those with earnings below $97,500 a year so executive and legislative branch office holders could have more of our money to spend extravagantly on "us" so they could win new terms in office. The FICA payroll tax has become a major factor in keeping the poor that way, retarding new business growth and keeping middle-class earners from moving up. Worst, it also turns out that our children and grandchildren will, in fact, still be burdened an ever-growing and mind-numbing national debt AND unbelievably high FICA taxes to support their parents.

In yet another example of playing fast and loose with politics and our money, 1986 saw Congress reject the tax policies of the Reagan administration and as consequence, the Savings and Loan industry collapsed. Turns out the definition of the tax value of real estate holdings had been changed overnight by the House Ways and Means Committee and banks no longer met liquidity rules. That politically inspired cat fight cost American taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars. And worse, we didn't learn.

It is past time--way past time--for hometown America to save America from our well-intentioned but criminally incompetent, at best, and cynically corrupted , at worst, national leadership. Do we have a moment to lose? Do we really need any more examples of how the new aristocracy can—and will—destroy the pursuit of happiness?

The reform that can save the nation and restore our identity as citizens who have empowered and limited government (instead of the other way around) is called the FairTax.

Because the FairTax allows every American to take home everything that is earned without any federal withholding, millions of distressed homeowners could actually afford home mortgage payments. The elimination of FICA taxes eliminates the highly regressive Social Security and Medicate tax but the FairTax provides a far broader stream of revenue into these faltering programs. Because the FairTax eliminates all exemptions, gimmicks and loopholes, Congress would be removed from the ability to buy votes with tax giveaways and billionaires pay taxes when they spend money. Because the FairTax makes nearly all federal government taxes entirely transparent, the sovereign citizen can know the score and put the brakes on extravagant new spending. Because the FairTax eliminates the price advantage now enjoyed by overseas producers, American jobs won't be leaving our shores. In fact, because the FairTax makes the USA the most favorable tax environment in the world, we can expect trillions of dollars of investment rushing into the US economy. With the FairTax, our money is ours first and only secondly devoted to government. Savings growth, investments and business decisions are guided by opportunity and real progress instead of tax avoidance tactics.

We've lost more than $2 trillion of our retirement savings in a week's time and our kid's future at college is in serious jeopardy. This didn't happen by accident but at the hands of the very same people who have given the FairTax a cold shoulder. Those candidates and incumbents of either party who would spend our future earnings to stay in office and who reject the FairTax for similarly self-interested reasons now need a strong reminder from voters about whose offices they occupy. Please pay attention to our voting guide and send that message.

Finally, our campaign needs your help—as always. We never have enough to do the job right. Send us a contribution if you can, even in these hard times. It may turn out to be the best investment you ever made. If you can't afford a donation, then help us by recruiting two new supporters. And keep your cards, letters, phone calls, faxes and e-mails going to incumbents and candidates.

The plain fact is, we either now save ourselves from our new aristocracy or suffer the consequences as modern day serfs in a nation never contemplated by our Founding Fathers.

Sincerely,

Ken Hoagland
National Communications Director

Every election year many people go into a zombie stage and tend to follow the piper, whom ever that happens to be!Date: 9/19/2008 4:00:56 PM ( 9 min æ ) ... viewed 1 times
What I would like to have some one explain to me, is why do many people want to turn over all their responsibilities over to Big Government??
" A government is an orginzation that controls people." a True-ism Sept 2008
DO you just want to work for the organization, not have to take time to decide what you need or want? That is where most of the world has been for almost all of known history! Check it out... Read some history!
Then just over 200 years ago some men came up with a better, prehaps the best way for a people to govern themselves... This was unheard of through out most of history... A new way to have the people decide what is best for themselves...
Well as with all good plans if you do not pay attention there will come those who know better; how you should spend your time and money... Yes, they know better than you what you need and really want, just ask them...
If you have paid any atttention, you may well note that this has been happening more and more in the good ole USA... Yes, folks they know how to spend your time and money better than you do...
What? How can that be? Well if you listen to certain political parties, they have the plan for you to follow... Yes just send in you money as tax and they will put it to good use... Because you do not know how to do this for yourself... Yes that is correct; just vote to have them take more of your time and money; because you can not figure out to do the right thing yourself...
Does this ring any bells, yet?? Well if it does not then either you do not pay tax or you are just plain stupid... Who in their right mind would volitarily turn over their time and resources to someone else to manage when they could do it themselves?? No one is the correct answer!
Well that is the big difference between the two main canidates running for President... One wants more of your time and money, and the other wants to leave most everything as is... While not perfect this arangment shows the foritude and ability of the voters... Either to let someone else take your money and spend it where they want or let you decide where to spend your money...
That is the long and short of it folks... Think long and hard...
BTW: I do not believe in party politics; I would like to see anyone interested and quilified run. Even if were fifty canidates, then vote for whom you please and the one with the most votes is President, and the runner up is vice Pres. It used to be that way, back before the "War between the States"....
Something to think about this election year...
