Horses
You may have heard the saying "You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink". This is a saying that has been around for a long time. But, have you ever thought deeply about why you can't make a horse drink? It is simple. The horse is stronger than you.
Now, how does this wise saying relate to people? When you try to give an ignorant person wisdom, his or her ignorance is stronger than your desire to be helpful.
You do not have enough strength to overcome the will of a willfully ignorant person to stay oblivious. You will waste your and the other person's time, trying in vain to be helpful. Like the horse with the water, make knowledge available to the one(s) you want to help, and hope and pray they are thirsty. If there is no student, there is no teacher.
I will leave you with these three quotes from the Bible.
(Proverbs Chap. 12 v.) The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth (hearken) unto counsel is wise.
(Proverbs Chap. 23 v. 9) Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.
(Proverbs Chap. 29 v. 9) If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest.

A Simple Look at You and Money
How you measure yourself, can shape your financial landscape.
When you measure yourself by competing outside of self (real or imaginary), there is a strong possibility of you being in financial trouble.
If you measure your value from the competition with self, you have the highest chance of being free financially in this society.
Building your worth by developing the inner-self, breaks the chains of believing you have to purchase your value.

All the world is a Stage
With all the chaos in society today, things look grim. The country is divided. There is a new strange virus terrorizing the public. The economy is in a tailspin, all while the wealthy are getting wealthier. Is this hell on Earth? The short answer is yes.
We are in hell true enough. If you were ever to read the bible (for yourself), you would find out that hell is not a place after you die. You would quickly come to the understanding that you were born in hell. Hell is not this fiery place waiting for bad people to die. Hell is a man made world system that goes against the universal laws of prosperity and peace.
Having said this, I must go back to my original question. Is this hell on Earth? Yes it is Hell ON Earth. The Earth will be fine. The Universe is continuing in it's state of perpetual perfection. The Creator of it all is alive orchestrating his eternal plan with supreme wisdom.
Well you may ask how do we get out of hell. The answer, the same way you got into hell. You have been conditioned from birth to believe you have mental and spiritual limitations. You play this role in error your whole life. This must take place for Satan and his devils to rule you. Satan would have no power without this literal brainwashing. This may sound strange. But, once again if you read the bible for yourself, you would find that Satan and the devils are humans.
I digressed. If you were conditioned from birth to play the role of having spiritual and mental limitations, you now have to condition yourself to know the creator did not give such constraints. There is no role to play. You need to recondition yourself, to be yourself.
The logical question is what do you do next? The answer is wake up! You have been asleep in the Matrix your whole life. After you wake up, you will find that you are at the center of the universe. The next step is limitless.
All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts...
Shakespeare

Experience
A great life is not about the few big things you experience in your life.
Life is about the many little joys you encounter on a daily basis.

Think for Yourself
Since the pandemic started over a year ago, there has been mass confusion and fear here in America. No one wants to catch the dreaded virus that has reportedly killed over 500,000 US citizens. This fear, confusion and anxiety is understandable. Unless you are old enough to remember the Spanish Flu in America of 1918, all of this is brand new.
Here is why I am writing this short blog. There is a lot of information out there that is true about the virus, and there is information that is false. This information is coming both from the official sources, and those sources that are considered conspiratorial in nature. Most of us don't know what to believe anymore.
I suggest that you think for yourself. Do your own investigation, and upon gathering enough information, make your own informed decisions.
Invest time in yourself. That way you will have some measure of peace.

We Are Slowly Losing Our Freedoms!
Today we live in strange times. Everybody is telling you what to do, where to be, what to say, who to vote for and what side you should be on. This is crazy. I will make this quick.
Most people call themselves Americans but have no clue of what that really means. Most think America is a Democracy—wrong. Some think it is a society run on capitalism. You are right by today’s standards, but off the mark in regard to the Declaration of Independence. Some will even say we are the last remaining superpower of the world. This is wrong for three reasons.
According to the constitution, America should not get tangled in foreign affairs. The number one goal of an American is safeguard the welfare of America, and for its citizens not to be the policemen of the world. Secondly you can not be a superpower when another country (China) produces all the goods that we consume. Three, because we Americans are consumers instead of producers (a recipe for disaster), upwards of 70% of America’s GDP is consumer spending. Sad
Then you may ask, what is America? America is a republic according to Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution, “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government”. Allow me to define Republic.
According to Google, “a Republic is a form of government in which the people or their elected representatives possess the supreme power”.
The supreme power has moved from the people to the wealthy barons, powerful corporations, and oversized government. Because of this, by a very slow process, we are losing more and more freedoms and what it really means to be an American day by day.
The whole reason for this message is to wake us up from the hypnotizing hymn of the American Dream and see the train that we are in that is about to be wrecked. A Republic is by the people, for the people and of the people. It is not by the government, for the corporations and of the wealthy elites.
The Declaration of Independence
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Living Life Society
The reason for Living Life Society is to help people to think. It goes without saying that humans can think, but in my opinion thinking correctly is the hardest thing that a man and woman can do today.
It is said that the average human thinks upwards of 70,000 thoughts a day. Amazing as that may sound, most of these thoughts for the average man and woman are negative in nature. This is partly due to most people are stuck mentally in the past, or worried about a future that has not yet arrived.
If only the citizens of this great planet knew what power they truly posses. My goal is to help in educating people to this profound truth. I am using the original definition of educate from its Latin origins, which means to bring from darkness to light. The answers are within all of us waiting to shine thru like the sun above.
