While I've been driving truck all this summer, I've been working on editing my book. Its getting better, but it is still not quite ready for prime time. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;When I do get it ready, I'll create a few webpages leading to the book on &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/"&gt;http://www.holistic-home-office.com/&lt;/a&gt; . Then,&amp;nbsp;I'll set up an adsense account and pay to get my website listed on the first page of Google searches. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I'm also working on getting my ebay business started up this winter. I figure that will be a great opportunity to learn another way for people to earn a living working in their own home office. It involves working with hard goods, rather than information, and requires quite a bit more outside work. Going to sales and auctions, etc., and transporting the products to and from&amp;nbsp;shipping terminals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I've been out of practice writing this blog and seem stuck on journaling about my business, instead of writing about the readers agenda. That is a bad habit I'm working on improving about myself. I figure just keep practice writing and really good, entertaining and educational stories will soon be flowing out into cyberspace.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Persistence is one of the most important characteristics of successful people.

I bought a used pickup truck and moved into a new apartment, so I'm tapped out of financial resources. I had hoped to be better prepared for this lay off.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Thats alright. I'll just keep working with the resources I have. I've come up with a new mission and purpose for &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/"&gt;http://www.holistic-home-office.com/&lt;/a&gt; It is to completely and permanently eliminate poverty, hunger&amp;nbsp;and homelessness from human nature and civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I'm not planning on doing that all by myself. I'm planning on doing research and writing about a diverse assortment of ways and means of creating prosperity, primarily focused on home office entrepreneurs and micro-businesses. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I will also write about blending our business and career with other areas of our lives, such as our health, our home and&amp;nbsp;family and our communities. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;This Blogger blog will continue to serve as a sort of journal for the holistic home office enterprise. Its a way for me to practice writing and develop my business plan at the same time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;And I am still interested in readers comments and suggestions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2703541035206305059?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2703541035206305059/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/12/im-back.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2703541035206305059'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2703541035206305059'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/12/im-back.html' title='I&apos;m Back!'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2996171634505599084</id><published>2011-12-04T15:45:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-12-05T18:21:28.985-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Blogger saved this post when I was kicked off the library computer.     Good job Blogger.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Well, I've been driving&amp;nbsp;a dump truck all summer. Lots of hours for fairly good pay. I moved and I bought a new pickup truck. I have not established Internet service at my new apartment, and I finally got a chance to come and work at the library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I don't have a lot of ideas to write about. I just wanted to write another post to get the blog going&amp;nbsp;again. I'll be getting laid off soon for the winter weather and I&amp;nbsp;have a plan to work on this blog and&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/"&gt;http://www.holistic-home-office.com/&lt;/a&gt; this winter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I'm thinking about focusing on learning&amp;nbsp;the Linux operating system. Teaching people how to use it and perhaps even selling laptops with Linux installed&amp;nbsp;on an ebay store.&amp;nbsp; I'm not very well educated about computer science, but I learn fast and figure that I can&amp;nbsp;share my research with you while I learn how to use Linux myself. I've been using it on my one and only laptop, which is getting old and is on its last legs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I'm also thinking about building a very high performance desktop computer and sharing that process with readers. I also have a plan to attend a particular school and get credentials for my holistic healing and teaching business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I'm going to be working with very little financial resources, at least until I get my income tax return. Then I can invest in some business infrastructure and by then I'll be working on the websites&amp;nbsp;steadily, so I'll be well into a good writing cycle. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I've been working on my book. I'm planning on preparing it and then publishing it on Lulu.com and then linking to&amp;nbsp;my Lulu.com&amp;nbsp;store&amp;nbsp;from all of my websites.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The best way to start your writing career is to read a lot, and then just start writing. I write whatever comes to my mind. I hope my stories are entertaining and educational. You've got to develop your own work schedule. That is what I'm working on now. Transitioning from driving a truck to research and writing, is a fairly dramatic change. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;This post is as much about getting back into the habit of writing as anything else.

Screaming and yelling at other employees is demoralizing for the individuals and harmful to the productivity of work teams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy, peaceful workers are the most productive workers. Sure, we have to have decisive leadership, but that does not imply that we should treat other employees disrespectfully. Learn from everyone you work with. Be mindful of having a positive, healthy, interdependent relationship with everyone you interact with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Safety is always first. Follow the safety rules of your particular work environment. Getting the job done is a very high priority after that. Maximize productivity and minimize waste. Saving a step or a minute every chance you get, can add up to substantial savings over long periods of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Practice harmony at work. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;The anger and hostility are&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt; like friction. Peace, harmony and happiness are aspects of healthy interpersonal relations, and work flows far more smoothly and efficiently in such a social environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pay attention to what's going on in your own work team. Be a positive influence, no matter what anyone else says or does. I know, its not always easy to be kind, friendly and polite when you are being screamed at or undermined in some way. A polite insult can be worse than a rude one. Just do the best you can, and recover quickly, back to your usual happy self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-1980510832828804670?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/1980510832828804670/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/07/collaborative-work-teams.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/1980510832828804670'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/1980510832828804670'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/07/collaborative-work-teams.html' title='Collaborative Work Teams'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-801515617912261228</id><published>2011-07-19T19:53:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2011-07-19T19:59:33.304-06:00</updated><title type='text'>We, the People of Earth</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;There is no they, only we, the people of earth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Earth is one country.

Its better to wait on your customers, than have them wait on you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And enjoy yourself. Get plenty of rest and eat a healthy, well balanced diet of whole food, not processed food and sugar water. Have fun and be careful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-8535445172913185084?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/8535445172913185084/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/06/building-infrastructure-in-usa.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8535445172913185084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8535445172913185084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/06/building-infrastructure-in-usa.html' title='Building Infrastructure in the USA'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2462326614079412525</id><published>2011-06-12T07:56:00.007-06:00</published><updated>2011-06-12T08:21:18.547-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Learn How Successful People Succeed</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Teachers are a vital aspect of the solution to the poverty, crime and conflict and contention that still plagues our society. They're also a big part of the problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the United States in particular, the teacher's unions teach their students that education is essential and that public schools are the only legitimate source of education. They seem to be teaching people that poor and middle class people are victims of the successful and rich people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, that's crazy. They should be teaching people to study and learn what the successful people are doing to become successful. Learn the rules of our 21st century, information age, global economy, and follow them in order to be successful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having said that, I agree that the extremes of wealth and poverty in human nature and civilization is a problem that needs to be worked on and solved. I'm just saying that the solution is to teach people personal responsibility, self determination and free enterprise, not dependence on big government social programs, or big business, or the doctors, lawyers and teachers who have gradually exalted themselves over the people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyone wants to be important. That is a perfectly natural human instinct. Its the desire to be more important than your fellow human beings that is the problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Continuous self improvement necessarily involves learning how to be a high performance servant of everyone you interact with. Help them accomplish their constructive goals and plans. Help them get where they're going. Get what you want by helping other people get what they want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Help make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The whole human race is one family and we are all responsible and accountable for what happens to everyone of us. Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2462326614079412525?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2462326614079412525/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/06/teachers-are-vital-aspect-of-solution.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2462326614079412525'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2462326614079412525'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/06/teachers-are-vital-aspect-of-solution.html' title='Learn How &lt;br /&gt;Successful People Succeed'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2298485195674871286</id><published>2011-06-11T23:51:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2011-06-12T00:09:48.909-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Write On</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been busy trying to get &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/"&gt;www.holistic-home-office.com&lt;/a&gt; up and running. Plus, I'm working full time driving a truck. So, I haven't had a lot of time to write here on earthling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I figure this blog is the best place for me to practice writing while I work this summer. &lt;/span&gt;It will be my primary supplement to the commercial website. Actually, they're both commercial websites. Holistic home office is just a more expensive and professional website. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I'll keep sharing my struggles and you can adapt my experience to your situation. I admit that I write about myself and my plans to often. Its a bad habit I need to work on improving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The point of this post is that I want to get started writing again, and that is what I'm doing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; I'm also reading a lot. Every once in a while I'll  write another post here. It doesn't seem like anyone is reading this  blog anyway. So, I'm just going to write whatever I want to write. It  will be good practice and perhaps someone will find this and like it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I intend to teach working class people how to earn income to supplement or replace the income from jobs. I also intend to teach homeless drug addicts, etc., how to recover, and being able to earn a living is a vitally important aspect of recovery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll keep working on improving my writing style, as well as the content of my stories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2298485195674871286?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2298485195674871286/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/06/write-on.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2298485195674871286'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2298485195674871286'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/06/write-on.html' title='Write On'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-9152906762172158869</id><published>2011-03-09T22:24:00.010-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-12T08:25:12.444-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Open Source Software Research</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;On the one hand I'm pretty happy to have almost 50 pages of content published on &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com"&gt;holistic-home-office.com.&lt;/a&gt; However, it doesn't seem like the professional quality writing that I want it to be. Both the style and the content seem pretty amateur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm really focusing in on research about both Linux and HTML. I want to learn how to upload my own HTML into the SBI! site builder as soon as possible. I've been trying to get the Arachnophilia HTML editor installed on my computer. It says I have to have Java installed. So, I'm trying to figure out how Linux works, so I can get all the hardware and software to work together, so I can use it to build my SBI! website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://nightingale.directtrack.com/z/23/CD3658/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://nightingale.directtrack.com/42/3658/23/" alt="Nightingale-Conant" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I've learned so far&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;, is that there are many different kinds of Linux, let alone open source software. The two main versions of Linux are Red Hat and Debian. They both have many derivative distributions. For example, the Ubuntu Linux I have installed on my computers, is a small subset of the Debian distro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's another open source operating system that's similar to Linux called NetBSD. Linux and NetBSD are both based on the Unix operating system, first developed at AT&amp;amp;T's Bell Labs, way back in the 1960s or so. The most important difference in my opinion, is the license that comes with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My main reason for switching to Linux is to get away from the proprietary license, controlling what I can do with my computer. The proprietary licenses usually say that the software company selling the software retains ownership of the software, and has strict guidelines about what you can do with the software. I definitely want to get away from that agreement as much as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Linux comes with the GNU/GPL license, which basically says that we can do anything we want to with it as long as we pass on the GNU/GPL license to anything we produce with the software. Now, that's not too bad, but it still limits what we can do with our computers. Its saying that we cannot use the open source software to develop proprietary software.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, that's a big limitation, interfering with our free enterprise. I'm not against earning income from our computer and Internet activities. In fact, I believe computer programmers and developers deserve to get paid for their work. I did not get into Linux because of the price. I got into it to get away from the proprietary license. The price did help, but we can't earn income from something we're giving away. Computer scientists have to earn a living, just like everyone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I, like most people and companies in the world, am using a mixture of open source and proprietary software.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The NetBSD license on the other hand, says that there are no limits. All it basically says is that there is no warranty. We can't sue anyone if it doesn't work right, because it is open source and anyone can change it. There is a standards group that maintains a stable repository, but they can't be held accountable for the modifications that thousands of developers and millions of users make to the operating system. NetBSD is the operating system I like, at least as far as the license goes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-9152906762172158869?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/9152906762172158869/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/03/open-source-software-research.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/9152906762172158869'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/9152906762172158869'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/03/open-source-software-research.html' title='Open Source Software Research'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5848804476243175826</id><published>2011-02-26T14:04:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2011-02-26T14:48:40.357-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Organizing My Writing Career</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Attracting attention toward &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/"&gt;www.holistic-home-office.com&lt;/a&gt; is my primary focus right now. I've got a reasonably attractive website built, a fairly good assortment of products and services available to offer and more channels and outlets for my stories than I have time to write for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Focus on producing keyword focused content for the websites I already have. I'm getting ready to go back to work driving truck for the construction season. I'll be working a lot of overtime, so I will not have a lot of time to write. I also have a ton of reading to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've ordered several books about writing and the computer science of e-commerce. I want to learn as much as I can about Linux, HTML and SBI!, so I can write stories about them on my high performance home office resource center. So, I'll probably not be writing a lot this summer, unless I can start earning enough income that I can work on this business full time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will be getting ready for another productive winter this fall, when we get laid off. One of my primary goals is to&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; soon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; be earning enough income from my e-commerce and network marketing activities, that I won't have to keep driving truck to pay my bills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing I've been thinking about is organizing my home office. I did get a desk! That was a great good fortune. So now I can work at a desk instead of sitting on my couch. It feels more like serious work and I can think about organizing my work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have 3 websites and several blogs going on. Plus all the affiliate programs and network marketing businesses that I plan on signing up for. Its complicated and my business is to manage it all in the most productive way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to try to develop each one of my blogs and websites into a distinct channel of education, communications and entertainment. My Open Salon .com blog focuses on writing. Holistic Home Office focuses on home office. This blog here seems to be my journal. I've started participating in Facebook. Facebook seems really noisy. I'm not sure how useful it is, but the e-commerce teachers say to participate in it.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been thinking that LinkedIn might be a more appropriate social media outlet for me. However, I've been hesitating to sign up because I already have so much going on. There's also the fact that I've been networking with my family on Facebook and that is a good thing in my opinion. That makes the Facebook channel worthwhile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm also trying to find something profitable for holistic home office .net to do. Vista print pretty much gave me a free website. I started it up, but haven't really done anything with it. I don't really want to do another home office resource center. Perhaps, I'll focus .net on a particular aspect of home office topic. Perhaps .net will focus on the computer science and .com will focus on the business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E-commerce teachers say to focus on a narrow niche. holistic home office .com is a fairly global, holistic perspective of the home office niche. It contains several channels that could be developed in their own right. Perhaps I'll focus holistic home office .net on one particular channel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then there's Ezine Articles .com. That seems to be focused on the world unity theme right now, but I think that could evolve from topic to topic. I developed all these channels in order to attract attention to holistic home office .com. Now, I'm working on sorting them out in my mind and setting some sort of strategy for working on them all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another aspect of the complexity is all the affiliate programs and network marketing businesses, passwords and relationships, etc. I have two laptops to work with and making sure they are up and running effectively is another issue I have to deal with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Focus! I have got to learn how to focus on one keyword, to attract attention, create something interesting to the people it attracts and only then, introduce them to holistic home office .com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think holistic home office .com will remain my primary commercial website. That allows me to spout off about a variety of subjects on my other websites. After all, I started this business because I have something to write about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I've spent enough time writing about me and my agenda, again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace and prosperity be with you all.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5848804476243175826?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5848804476243175826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/02/organizing-my-writing-career.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5848804476243175826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5848804476243175826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/02/organizing-my-writing-career.html' title='Organizing My Writing Career'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-6758685613024267299</id><published>2011-01-30T23:00:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2011-01-30T23:29:32.224-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Testing Click Bank</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I just signed up for an affiliate account on Click Bank and I want to test the linking process.  The first program I signed up for is a program offered by someone who has a very successful eBay business. I've always thought eBay is a good way for home office entrepreneurs to earn income and so here it is. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://b8bb5akd15sa19g-f8tl5hw40d.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=EARTHLING" target="_top"&gt;Click Here!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I tried to get the link to be an in context text link, but it didn't work. This one seems to work. Its just a test and I'll learn how to integrate the Click Bank program into all of my websites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I haven't used either this product or eBay, yet.

I believe that one of the most important principles of success in business and culture is to recognize the unity of the human race.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We, the people of earth, are responsible and accountable for creating a safe, clean and decent society. Its up to us to make sure that our prosperity is fairly distributed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What ever is good for human nature and civilization is what we should all do, individually and collectively. Improve ourselves and help others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most serious issue we all have to face, the most serious problem we all have to solve, is the one billion or so human beings who live in extreme poverty. This is just unacceptable. It is unnecessary and unacceptable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know all the answers, or what to do to solve the problems, I just know that we all need to consult with each other and develop social and economic systems that fairly and justly distributes our common wealth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is immoral for a few people to live in luxury while many people live in poverty. Only a corrupt economic system would create such an unjust distribution of our economic resources.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Big business executives making hundreds of millions of dollars a year, while their employees earn barely enough to survive, is obscene, unethical and immoral. Those executives are looting our companies. And the stockholders and directors of the companies are ruining our civilization with such an unfair distribution of the rewards of production.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My big idea about how to solve this problem is for big business to supply resources, such as transportation, infrastructure, etc., to a diverse assortment of small businesses. Millions of individual entrepreneurs and family owned and operated businesses working in harmony with both big and small businesses in an organic, holistic economy that works for all the people of earth, not just a few people at the expense of everyone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of one company owning thousands of stores, the big businesses can trade with thousands of individually and family owned businesses that are unique examples of real cultural diversity. I don't think franchises should be banned. I just think that the playing field should be leveled, between the franchises and the individually owned small businesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would take a blend of venture capital dedicated to the idea and government regulation to make this happen and prevent the unfair practices of big business suppressing the competition from small business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Human civilization is whatever we, the people of earth, make it. We can make it so that a few people are rich and powerful, while the vast majority suffer extreme poverty. Or we can make it so that there is a fair and just distribution of our economic resources.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its just a matter of deciding and doing it. The World Economic Forum has just held their meeting in Davos Switzerland. We are consulting on a global level and are making progress. Most of the people at that meeting were wealthy, and I'm sure that very few of them were poor. I don't know, I wasn't there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its important that all people participate in our consultations. I applaud the World Economic Forum. The work they are doing is helpful. The United Nations Millennium Development Goals are another  helpful effort to improve the human economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're making progress, and we have a lot of progress to make. The human race is coming together. We are one big happy family. Earth is one gigantic civilization. On the other hand, its just a tiny speck of dust floating in a vast, mostly empty universe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you know that when galaxies collide they pass right through each other with very little physical contact, other than the gravitational influence they have on each other? Wow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Living in harmony with each other and our natural habitat is happening on purpose, not by accident or chance. Help make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3735665282158757004?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.holistic-home-office.com' title='One Small World'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3735665282158757004/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/01/one-small-world.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3735665282158757004'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3735665282158757004'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/01/one-small-world.html' title='One Small World'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3487479842661413136</id><published>2011-01-11T20:09:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2011-01-11T21:39:22.641-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Pro Writer</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Well, I've been writing earthling09 and this blog since about October, 2008. I started my new commercial website &lt;a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.blogger.com/www.holistic-home-office.com"&gt;www.holistic-home-office.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; during November, 2010. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've already got a fairly decent looking 32 page website up and running.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been signing up for a variety of affiliate programs in order to monetize my websites. Getting all this set up right is complicated. Its fun, but complicated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've got more options to work on, than I have time to work on them. I have more reading to do than I can possibly read. So, I'm really starting to think about organizing my time&lt;/span&gt; and work schedule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been listening to an NLP/Conversational Hypnosis training course I bought last year. Investigating a science I believe will add value to both my sales ability and my holistic healing and teaching skills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not having any capital to work with is proving to be a serious problem for me this winter. I tried to get myself set up to be able to work on my e-commerce system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I was working, driving a dump truck during the summer, I was throwing money at the problem. Getting the Linux set up on my laptop. I eventually got another backup laptop. Buying my Site Build It! website and other hardware and software.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As soon as I got some time off from that job, I started writing and I've produced a basic commercial website. And now, I probably have a good set of affiliate programs to offer my readers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm thinking about whether I should continue to work online, or work offline, trying to sell the websites in the local neighborhood. I suppose that I can do a little offline selling, but I should concentrate on writing content for all the writing venues I have set up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another issue is writing the way I'm suppose to be writing. All the marketing gurus say I should not be writing about myself and my agenda. That makes sense and I have learned to write about my readers interests rather than myself. I think I still write about myself way too much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do seem to be getting a trickle of readers. I guess I'm writing this story in order to get my writing juices flowing again after driving truck for a week, and in the interests of full disclosure. In other words, I'm striving to be open and honest with my readers about who I am and what my goals and plans are. Thats part of the story I have to tell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The one story I've written that has drawn the most attention, by far, is a story about the world economy in 2009. So, I'm thinking about studying the United Nations and the World Economic Forum, etc., and writing a series of articles about that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I figure I'll write a bunch of stories about our global economy on Ezine Articles.com with links to holistic home office .com. I'll focus on the holistic home office story on the website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll keep writing about all kinds of things on this blog, earthling. I think these journal entries are alright every once in a while. However, I will usually be writing about something other than my own business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this story I just wrote, is an example of me writing another, this is what I'm doing, while I'm doing it, story. You will be going through whatever process you're going through to design and build your online story telling business, or your online store. Me sharing my experience in real time will help other people like me to get through this fun, interesting and complicated process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace and prosperity be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3487479842661413136?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3487479842661413136/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/01/pro-writer.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3487479842661413136'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3487479842661413136'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/01/pro-writer.html' title='Pro Writer'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-7206201126847222866</id><published>2011-01-04T20:30:00.007-07:00</published><updated>2011-01-05T06:43:43.701-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy New Year!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I accomplished my plan of creating &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/"&gt;30 web pages&lt;/a&gt; before the end of 2010. Actually, I accomplished that goal on January 1, 2011. I've got about 32 pages published so far. Some of them still need a little editing. Which is what I've been working on for the last few days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to go back to work in order to earn money to pay my bills, and thankfully, my truck driving job called me back to work the day I started looking for a job, on a job that should last about a week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm thinking about how to organize all this hardware and software and my schedule, etc. This is a very complex business I'm developing, and I'm loving it, but I've got to get the work flowing smoothly and all the components working right. You know? All that synergy,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; harmony and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; integration, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example, I finally got signed up with several affiliate programs and got links and ads on my websites. I wonder if they're all working correctly. What about security.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've noticed that this Linux Clamav antivirus is running in the back ground of my Linux Mint operating system. But there's no flashy graphical user interface, like with Norton. I just see these little notices, "Scanning for viruses," every once in a while. I suppose I could open it using the command line, but I haven't really figured out how to use the command line very well, yet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So getting all this set up, the banking is probably highest priority, while I'm writing and editing content, managing several affiliate programs and several websites is, complicated, interesting and fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can do this too. Read a lot! Seek the truth, in every sense of the phrase. Keep reading and seeking the truth about everything. Then focus on your little niche. I selected the holistic home office niche to start with, because I have a very holistic perspective of everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I don't have any credentials, I can't really focus on holistic healing. And I really do need to recover from extreme poverty and homelessness. I figure I'll apply my reading and writing talent to this specialty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think I have pretty good common sense and aesthetic taste. I'll develop a cluster of really excellent websites that will earn a reasonable standard of living for me and my family and friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Follow my example. Write out loud. Introduce yourself to the online world. Learn how to write by reading and writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7206201126847222866?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7206201126847222866/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/01/happy-new-year.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7206201126847222866'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7206201126847222866'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2011/01/happy-new-year.html' title='Happy New Year!'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5884550560986449084</id><published>2010-12-30T17:14:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-30T17:50:06.237-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Writing Through Adversity</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Work on getting as much work done as possible before the first of the year. Keep working, as many hours as you can. And focus your work on productive activity. Its just like sports. I know your tired and frustrated. Just keep working, you can do it. Hard work is good for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sales and marketing are probably at the top of the list of priorities. Creating high quality content is always a valuable activity. Work on getting yourself more well organized. Both your space and your activity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avoid TV and other time wasting activities. Writing interesting stories is more fun than watching TV anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been working from the time I get up, until I fall asleep, pretty much ever since I got laid off. I'm making a lot of progress. My high performance home office resource center, Holistic Home Office, is evolving very rapidly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm making good progress on writing keyword focused content webpages. I've got about 26 pages so far. I also got  signed up for Google Adsense. So with that and SBI! and Xara, I've just started my monetization program. Great progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also made a big off line sales pitch today. ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just toggle back and forth between all these different tenses and first person, second person, third person perspective and all that. I learned how to write by reading. I haven't had a lot of formal education to learn all that English composition, etc. This is my life. I'm a writer and these websites are the canvas I work on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realize not very many people, if any, are reading these stories. Focus on making them fun and interesting anyway. Work on making your stories entertaining. Much of the subject matter I write about is technical. Websites, computer science, business, etc. Make it interesting to read and you will probably attract more attention and sell more products and services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I edit my writing quite a bit. I write a webpage on my text editor Kate, then I upload it onto the SBI! Site Builder. I edit it while I do that. Then, I add a little color to the text to highlight certain points, and to break up the paragraphs of text, and I edit the story some more while I do that. Then I use the SBI! Analyze It! while I edit it some more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think my stories end up OK. When I read them, they seem like pretty good stories to me. I guess that not all people like to read like I do. So, attracting an audience is not going to be easy. There are plenty of far more famous authors than I am, that most people would rather read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's alright! Just keep on writing, and let the results be what they are. Write a business plan every year, and work on your business plan. Get yourself cleaned up and be a professional artist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can write.

Almighty God, the Uncreated Creator, is the Great Attractor inherent in all of creation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Almighty God is the Central Orb of the universe, the Source and the Goal of all material and spiritual reality. There is only one Almighty God and only one reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything in natural reality influences everything else in natural reality. Its all one big interrelated series of cause and effect. Almighty God is the unmoved Impulse causing all of natural and spiritual reality. The Supreme Being, the Most Great Spirit, is the Lord and Savior and Guardian of every human being, past present and future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Manifestation of God, such as Buddha, Jesus Christ, Muhammad and Baha'u'llah, are divine Teachers, sent to reveal the Word of God, which contains the Law of God and the eternal, unchanging Faith of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Natural reality is like a hologram. No matter how you divide it, it still contains a complete reflection of the one reality. Like the Holy Bible says, "God said let there be light," and we can now directly observe that our universe is an immense sparkling explosion of light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Super symmetry is our scientific description of that characteristic of natural reality, in which all parts of nature are a reflection of all of nature. Every atom contains the potential to become a universe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human soul is like a mirror, reflecting whatever it is turned toward. It's created to turn toward God and reflect the attributes of God. The reason that natural reality exists, is so that human beings can know and love God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank God, the human race is coming together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just think! 50 and 100,000 years from now, scientists will be digging around looking for the pollution layer, just like scientists today, dig around to investigate the Iridium layer associated with the mass extinction of dinosaurs, and many other species of life on earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before the pollution layer they will find evidence of conflict and contention, crime, war and disease. After the pollution layer they will find evidence of one universal and divine civilization evolving in peace and prosperity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Most Great Peace will come on purpose. We, the people of earth, are responsible and accountable for creating a safe, clean and decent society. Make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ya Baha'u'l Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4748023502668973119?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4748023502668973119/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/happiness-and-faith.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4748023502668973119'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4748023502668973119'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/happiness-and-faith.html' title='Happiness and Faith'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5293237057128220156</id><published>2010-12-25T09:36:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-25T09:53:47.822-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Merry Christmas and Have a Happy 2011</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Thank God Jesus saved us!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I understand that the Manifestation of God is a special Being, created by Almighty God.

He is a divine Teacher, sent to reveal the Word of God. This divine education causes the mystical transformation of human nature, from wild animals into civilized human beings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus Christ is the Lord and Savior of every human being, past, present and future. His sovereignty will last forever. You must accept His love and affection in order to receive it. Both faith and deeds are required for personal salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seek the truth, and the truth will set you free. Seek God! Love and obey Almighty God. Love and respect each other.

I did get a decent story written this morning, but the network connection of the computer I wrote it on is out of order, so I can't upload the story onto the website. Later on, I wrote a long post on a forum, and when I submitted the post I got one of those bad connection errors and lost the story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its Monday and I'm feeling a little frustrated. I'm worried about how I'm going to pay my bills. Is it realistic for me to be working on this writing, instead of just looking for a job, like most of the people around me say I should.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just read a post on &lt;a href="http://writesigns.blogspot.com/"&gt;another blog&lt;/a&gt; about persistence. And I figured that the least I could do is write a post on this blog. Its been a while. I have been busy writing every day. But I have 3 blogs and I'm thinking about starting another one. I have 2 websites I'm working on. One of them is fairly static. Its my first free practice website &lt;a href="https://sites.google.com/site/earthling09/"&gt;earthling09&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I'm a little overwhelmed. I feel like I need to prune my writing venues down to just a few. I will of course, continue to focus on &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/index.html"&gt;holistic-home-office.com.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of my other blogs is supposed to be where I write about my own agenda. I just feel like this is my writing home and its been quite a while since I posted here. I want to keep this blog going. I'll continue to write about philosophy and cultural anthropology, etc., and I'll mix in these journaling posts from time to time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keeping all these different blogs going is a business strategy. Its part of my link in strategy. So, I may keep them all going. I just need to work a lot. It's hard. There is no one&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; other than me&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; here to make sure I get the work done. There are a lot of distractions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forums are a big distraction. I get involved in conversations and spend a lot of time writing on a diverse assortment of forums. That is also part of my web 2.0 strategy, however, I think I should focus on writing keyword focused webpages, and blog posts for awhile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to get 30 pages written for holistic home office by the end of 2010. I've got 17 so far. I've learned how to get pictures from my Droid X smart phone loaded onto my website using Photobucket as an intermediary between my Android and Linux Mint operating systems. Now, I want to learn how to produce and upload videos onto the website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an impossibly long reading list. Yeah, I need to get into writing content. Focus and discipline are what I want and need to practice during this next couple of weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3759368149930350385?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3759368149930350385/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/writing-is-sometimes-difficult-and.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3759368149930350385'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3759368149930350385'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/writing-is-sometimes-difficult-and.html' title='Writing Work Ethic'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-8629488537218202595</id><published>2010-12-12T17:04:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-12T17:44:11.932-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Individual Entrepreneurs Working in Our Global Economy</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Start your own home office based free enterprise. There's a whole new generation of well educated workers coming up, that is far larger than any previous generation. The jobs are spread out around the world and many of the high paying manufacturing jobs are being automated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the information age. Study. A lot. Pay attention to what's going on, and prepare yourself to succeed in this next generation of human civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a good example of the &lt;a href="http://www.oecd.org/pages/0,3417,en_36734052_36734103_1_1_1_1_1,00.html"&gt;social and economic development&lt;/a&gt; of our universal federation of nations. Investigate this stuff, and respond appropriately in order to improve your chances of success. Get out in front of the trends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think about the complexity. There's a diverse assortment of impulses, influencing the evolution of human nature and civilization toward this world unity. Big business is leading the way, and government is growing global as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Dalai Lama and other religious leaders are traveling around the world teaching people to love and respect each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jet aircraft that can take off from any airport and land at any other airport in the world, non stop without refueling, is another major influence bringing the people of earth together into one world wide civilization. The Internet, Skype and cell phone services are making it possible for us to talk to each other globally, in real time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So build your online store or art gallery with a global audience in mind. Add value to our universal common wealth. And make sure the quality of what you're offering is very excellent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order for the millions of individual and family scale businesses to compete with the high quality products supplied by big business, we're going to have to develop a good reputation. Develop ways and means for small business to deliver the variety of business models and  products and services that only individual and family sized businesses can supply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The whole world economy is booming. The human race is coming together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unite all the people of every nation, race and religion into one&lt;br /&gt;universal and divine civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-8629488537218202595?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/8629488537218202595/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/start-your-own-home-office-based-free.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8629488537218202595'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8629488537218202595'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/start-your-own-home-office-based-free.html' title='Individual Entrepreneurs &lt;br&gt;Working in Our Global Economy'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2113421569137979551</id><published>2010-12-05T19:31:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-08T20:43:51.428-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Writing About Cultural Evolution</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Creating really good content, educational and entertaining stories, is the best strategy for earning a living writing online. Add value to our common wealth, instead of trying to get something for nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just keep writing. I've been thinking a lot about improving human nature and civilization. We need as many blogs and websites advocating holistic healing and teaching as we can get.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right now, our civilization is in a major crisis, mainly involving corruption, selfish ambition and competition. The more we push religion out of our public square, the more corrupt, violent and materialistic our society becomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just look at the entertainment available. It is almost exclusively stories about dehumanizing violence and corruption. For example, the recent movie Avatar was a great movie, not with standing the pagan propaganda, which I'm fairly neutral about. But once again, it is a story about greedy capitalists ravaging some primitive peoples.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is extremely violent. Why couldn't the story have been about earthlings discovering the Navi and establishing friendly relations with them. Why glorify the devil, all the time. It is getting really old.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sad thing about it is, we are watching the end of western civilization, and most of the people don't even realize it. The science of neuroplasticity has revealed that what we watch on TV has profound influence on human consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human soul is like a mirror that reflects whatever its turned towards. Watching repetitive graphic violence on modern multimedia is becoming a self fulfilling prophecy. Besides that, much of what Hollywood is selling is historical revisionism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People have to eat. Capitalism is the most productive means of producing and sharing products and services. Its not capitalism that is harmful. Its the irreligious attitude, the immorality infecting our culture, and usually promoted by the people who hate capitalism, that is causing the trouble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As far as the whole so called American Indian genocide issue. As I remember it, the Indians attacked  the Americans. First during the French and Indian wars, and then the Red Stick&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;, a racist gang like Al Qaeda,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; wiped out a village of people who were a happy mixture of Indians and other Americans living in harmony with each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that, Andrew Jackson, who was a soldier when the Red Sticks attacked the village, became President of the USA and ordered all the Indians to move out west of the Mississippi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, while what happened to the Indians was a tragedy, the Indians were not innocent victims. I figure that since Europeans owned the land, and Indians belong to the land, the European domination of the Indians was inevitable. It was a deep psychological interaction, with predictable results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This idea that Europeans came over here to steal Indian land and oppress Indian people is just a distortion of the truth. Most of the Europeans migrated to North America to escape the crowded, disease infested and oppressive cultures of Europe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their intentions were noble and they created one of the greatest nations in the history of earth. The USA may not survive this present wave of hostility, but the legacy of the American nation is one of advancing both our material prosperity and our human rights of all people everywhere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have worked hard and earn our prosperity and created waves of progress in civil and human rights. The philosophy of the left is not liberal, it is radical and oppressive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And when conservatives insist on this greedy racist nationalist attitude, I'm even more offended. For one thing, I agree with conservatives about the cultural issues. I do not agree that Laissez Faire capitalism is the solution to all of our problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the mean oppressive conservative attitude gives the Leftists an excuse for their diabolical desire to return to that, 'rule of man,' that we rejected in the American Revolution. Remember that whole conversation, about replacing the rule of man, ie., the nobility; with the rule of law, and government of the people, by the people and for the people?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, we have government of the people, by experts and for stockholders. Our educational establishment is teaching this materialistic world view, that says that people who have credentials that the schools are selling, are superior to people who don't have the credentials.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its a whole new ruling class, a new caste system. Only instead of heredity or religion, it's this materialistic, so called Enlightenment philosophy, this &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;antireligious &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;propaganda, that proposes the so called power differential, which is taught in our schools, sold by big business and enforced by big government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Human civilization is whatever we, the people of earth, make it. Free enterprise, equal opportunity, justice, compassion and unity in diversity all happen on purpose. It is up to us people of earth, to enforce our constitution to prevent any one group, sect or nation to oppress any other nation, race or religion. No human being will lord over any other human being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All human beings will&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; practice independent investigation of the truth, and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; submit to Almighty God as we each understand Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2113421569137979551?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2113421569137979551/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/creating-really-good-content.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2113421569137979551'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2113421569137979551'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/creating-really-good-content.html' title='Writing About Cultural Evolution'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2086383253041002109</id><published>2010-12-04T22:12:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-04T23:12:52.678-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Work Flow</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Recently I got an email from Myspace and got logged back into my old Myspace page. I started blogging on there. I had one blog post from when I had signed up for myspace many months ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I've been thinking about how to get into the most productive work schedule for creating my own high performance holistic home office. Writing content is the stage of development that I'm at now. I thought I would dedicate my Myspace page to writing about my agenda, my business plan, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also have a Facebook page. I'm pretty sure there is a blog there also. I'll get that one fired up as well. My objective is to get into the habit of writing a lot, in order to get the writing process flowing out in a river of creative freedom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;And all these blogs and websites will be an interconnected cluster of related websites for learning, teaching and entertaining myself and anyone who is interested. I'm working on generating web 2.0 content in a variety of locations and styles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Blogspot blog earthling will remain a general philosophy blog about whatever I feel like writing about. Having this variety of writing tools available will allow me to express the full range of my creative interest, while keeping &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/index.html"&gt;www.holistic-home-office.com&lt;/a&gt; focused on the home office theme based content.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I often have a hard time getting started writing and having this variety of tools to work with, will make that a lot easier. I'll get into a regular schedule of writing on each website and blog. I like to think out loud and this system will allow me to do that without harming the quality of my main websites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm writing about all this now, in order to show readers in real time what I'm doing, in order to inspire you to adapt some variation of my methods to improve your own home office based free enterprise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This here blog is actually my very first website. I started writing it in October of 2008. Sometimes I write of lot of posts and other times I don't write anything here for long periods of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not sure how things will work out this winter. I will be focusing most of my attention on holistic-home-office.com. That will be my primary focus. However, I think it might be useful to have these other outlets in order to get my writing to flow out more freely. I can also start building a link back to holistic-home-office.com strategy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm still working part time driving a truck. So I'm not working on the websites full time yet. I'm not sure if I'll get unemployment yet. That would be ideal, enabling me to work on my e-commerce system full time. Other wise, I'll have to get another job and work on the writing and website development part time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plus, I'm learning an incredible amount of new hardware and software. Right now, my big problem is being able to share pictures and videos from my Droid X smart phone with my Linux Mint operating system, so that I can then upload the pictures and videos onto the websites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I'm running a lot of Google software, I'll probably investigate using You Tube to do that. I'll have to find out if You Tube and SBI! are compatible. I've heard that Adroid, the Google operating system that runs on the Droid X smart phone, is Linux based. I don't know for sure, I'll have to find out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;holistic-home-office.com looks and feels like earthling09 did after 30 days. It looked like a warehouse, instead of a store front. earthling09 still looks pretty primitive, mostly text, but I have been able to get a decent looking color theme going on there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, learning the picture and video technology is the next right thing for me to do. I never did learn that with eaqrthling09. Now that I'm getting laid off. I have the time to work on it, but I don't have any financial resources to invest in the multimedia technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've got the Google Droid X, the Linux Mint on two laptops and an SBI! website to work with. It's going to be fun and interesting to work on this business this winter. My goal is to be earning enough income from my e-commerce systems, to supply me with plenty of material resources for my life on earth, at least $2000/month, by this time next year, 2011.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, we'll see how it all develops. I've noticed that when I have the opportunity, I do actually get a reasonable amount of work done. Even though it feels like I'm frustrated and spinning my wheels. I want to increase my productivity. I want to get my work flowing smoothly, rather than this adhoc fits and starts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like my writing style, I just want to improve it and get it to flow smoothly. Perhaps improve the organization of my stories. Maybe I'll start writing outlines. I'm just plugging along. I tend to just start writing and then edit a lot. I'm enjoying this, even though I see that I've written another post about me and my agenda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2086383253041002109?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2086383253041002109/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/recently-i-got-email-from-myspace-and.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2086383253041002109'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2086383253041002109'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/12/recently-i-got-email-from-myspace-and.html' title='Work Flow'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-7029901045049834</id><published>2010-11-26T10:07:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2010-12-04T22:12:16.933-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Working On My New Pro Website</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Well, I've been working on my new professional, commercial website. It is an interesting adventure. I'm learning a tremendous amount of computer science and creative writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Immerse yourself in the diverse assortment of open source software. I've been working with both, the all in one browser and WYSIWYG HTML editor Sea Monkey and the Firefox browser. I've been using Sea Monkey a lot, but recently I'm moving back to Firefox and am planning on using it in conjunction with the text editor Kate and the HTML editor Blue Fish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://workfromhome.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;SBI!&lt;/a&gt; says that WYSIWYG HTML editors create a lot of extra HTML. They're easier to use, but not as clean and efficient as the, "what you get is what you write," editors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bluefish is not a WYSIWYG HTML editor. You build your page while you see the HTML. You can click a button to get a preview of what you're creating, but you work directly with the HTML.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I'm no expert at working with HTML, but I figure I can learn fast. It will be another layer of education on top of all the reading I've done over the years, about computer science in general and HTML in particular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/index.html"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.holistic-home-office.com&lt;/a&gt; is turning out to be an evolution of my creative freedom onto the pro website format. Its a theme based content site that is similar to what I created at earthling09 and here at earthling. It's just a little more focused on the home office theme.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;And of course, I get to use all that integrated e-commerce software in the back ground, that I'm counting on to attract traffic, and to help me influence readers in ways that benefit our entire human race, individually and collectively.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not sure what I'll do with these free Google sites. Right now, I link to them from my pro site and vice versa. They're still part of my little cluster of websites. Hopefully, the SBI! site will attract readers to the stories I have been, and will continue, writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7029901045049834?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.holistic-home-office.com/' title='Working On My New Pro Website'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7029901045049834/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/11/working-on-my-new-pro-website.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7029901045049834'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7029901045049834'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/11/working-on-my-new-pro-website.html' title='Working On My New Pro Website'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-8952228989580218894</id><published>2010-11-15T15:32:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-15T15:59:33.700-07:00</updated><title type='text'>One World</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Did you notice that the human race is coming together?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Think about it. The American people are in this conflict with the Arab people, and I guess its not the first time that has happened. Remember the conflict with Tripoli during the Jefferson Administration!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We were fighting pirate then, just as we are now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My point in this story is that all the conflict and contention in the world today are effects of these civilizations coming together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not long ago, most Americans didn't even know Afghanistan existed, let alone where it is, or anything else about it. We helped the Afghans defeat the USSR, and then they turned against us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what do we do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I figure the entire human race is one big world wide federation of nations. The United Nations is the next generation of human civilization. China, India, Brazil, the EU, Russia. They're all giant super powers in the new world order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need a new world order. Independence and nationalism were progress compared to feudalism. Now, we need unity in diversity, service and cooperation, on a global scale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you read the United Nations Charter? The Universal Declaration of Human Rights? While I am very patriotic about the USA and its philosophy, in my opinion, the philosophy of the UN and the global community is progress, compared to that of the USA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, like any human organization, the UN is not perfect. I figure it is not nearly as corrupt as the media is reporting. It seems like the only time the media says anything about the UN is when something bad happens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But then, I guess they do that about everything. So they're not just picking on the UN. The United States is one of the greatest civilizations that has ever existed on this planet, and yet according to the media, it is weak, corrupt and a mean bully in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United Nations is the greatest civilization that has ever existed on earth. It includes the USA, China, Japan, Korea, India, Egypt, Nigeria, Russia, the EU, Brazil and all the rest of the tribes and nations of the human race.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're all on the same team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank God, the human race is coming together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-8952228989580218894?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/8952228989580218894/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/11/did-you-notice-that-human-race-is.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8952228989580218894'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8952228989580218894'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/11/did-you-notice-that-human-race-is.html' title='One World'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3213051237257616929</id><published>2010-11-14T08:57:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-14T09:20:09.679-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SBI! is live!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Finally, after all these years of research and desire and effort, I have purchased an SBI! webite: &lt;a href="http://www.holistic-home-office.com/index.html"&gt;www.holistic-home-office.com&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've got two laptops with Linux mint installed and a Droid X smart phone.

It's up to all of us to educate and train each other about this fundamental reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is not to say that everything human beings do is good and right. We have a lot of problems that we need to solve. We need to keep improving ourselves and helping each other. Education and training, rather than harsh penalties, are the solution to war and crime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most people who commit crimes are normal people. They're not evil monsters that we should persecute because of their character defects and shortcomings. All prisons should be rehabilitation centers, instead of the psychopathic nightmares that breed insanity and crime that we have now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our educational system is also contributing to this decline in civility. Mainly by teaching kids that morality is strictly a matter of personal preference. I haven't been in school for a long time. But while listening to the conversation going on in the USA, it seems like our educational establishment, and others, such as the media, are saying that the traditional values that are the foundation of our civilization are not valid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They're making up arbitrary man made rules, that are in direct opposition to the moral values and spiritual principles that are the Rule of Law inherent in human nature, that natural law mentioned in the original documents during the founding of the United States, and that are the difference between wild animals and civilized human beings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank God Jesus saved us.&lt;br /&gt;There is only one Almighty God, and Muhammad is His Apostle.&lt;br /&gt;Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-6007667569484676632?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/6007667569484676632/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/10/improving-ourselves-and-helping-each.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6007667569484676632'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6007667569484676632'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/10/improving-ourselves-and-helping-each.html' title='Improving Ourselves&lt;br&gt; and Helping Others'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3036778841026569654</id><published>2010-10-05T20:37:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-10-05T20:57:39.984-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Work Ethic</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Work smart, work fast and work safe.

Sometimes your best friends will roll their eyes and laugh when you reveal that you are striving to improve yourself and help others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Different people will take different paths in their own personal self improvement and service to our community. Whether you're a writer, a computer science specialist of some kind, an artist or healer, keep on practicing. Keep making progress. Stay focused on your business plan and don't let anyone talk you out of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be realistic. Find something that you like to do and that you are reasonably good at. Start trading at yard sales and e-Bay, and then graduate up to trading on the stock market at e-Trade, TDAmeritrade or Scottrade, etc. Start with the simple basics and move up to more advanced versions of whatever you're working on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get a good clean Linux installation and then build your own on-line store based on that foundation. Make sure your phone can communicate with your computer and they can communicate with your house. Figure it out, make it work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our houses can be designed and upgraded to use very little energy and to generate the energy they do use. We can use some of the energy our houses generate, to recharge our electric drive automobiles. And we can earn another little stream of income by selling any excess energy back to the grid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eat good healthy whole food, not processed food. Our entertainment and education is even more important than our diet and nutrition. Participate in good, clean, uplifting entertainment, not the sexual immorality, drug abuse and violence that is so popular these days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be spiritual.

Especially at work. People complain about the company, the economy and the nation constantly. I'm like, happy to have a job, and to live in one of the most prosperous civilizations on earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree that the USA is badly infected with corruption. Its kind of like a computer, when it gets all clogged up with downloads and removals and starts running really slow. Sometimes we just have to clean them out and reset everything. The USA still stands for freedom, equality and justice for all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And besides, contrary to popular opinion, out here in Wyoming anyway, I believe that world unity, our global federation of nations, our universal common wealth, ie., the United Nations, is slowly replacing the national civilizations that have dominated the earth during the last several centuries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a good thing. And like all the civilizations that have risen and fallen in the past, it is another temporary phase in the dynamic and ongoing flow of human nature and civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, I believe that the UN is the political unity, the Lessor Peace, foretold in the Sacred Writings of many world religions. And that that spiritual civilization, the Kingdom of God, promised in the Sacred Writings will follow, just as day follows night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe Baha'u'llah is the Promised One of every religion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that He has already founded the Kingdom of God on earth. That it is growing and thriving and causing the turmoil in the present regional civilizations, because it is replacing all of them with one universal and divine civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope and believe that the civilization founded by Baha'u'llah, during the 19th century, will last for at least 500,000 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lord Krishna and Buddha are powerful divine Teachers, just like Adam, Noah, Abraham, Zoroaster and Moses, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank God Jesus saved us.&lt;br /&gt;There is only one Almighty God and Muhammad is His Apostle.&lt;br /&gt;Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4304605885924625949?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4304605885924625949/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/09/be-happy-and-optimistic.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4304605885924625949'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4304605885924625949'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/09/be-happy-and-optimistic.html' title='Be Happy and Optimistic'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2496254340070613962</id><published>2010-08-28T07:54:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-08-28T08:07:58.100-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='I got a title posted.'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Well'/><title type='text'>Blogging with Android</title><content type='html'>Well, I was able to create a post title with my Droid, but not a post itself&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2496254340070613962?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2496254340070613962/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/blogging-with-android.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2496254340070613962'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2496254340070613962'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/blogging-with-android.html' title='Blogging with Android'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2912463453585111043</id><published>2010-08-28T07:13:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-08-28T07:49:41.227-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Kubuntu and Android</title><content type='html'>I decided to change my Linux operating system to Kubuntu. Ubuntu seems very simple and elegant. Kubuntu is more complex and pretty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've also invested in an Android smart phone. I'm building up my business tools. The Linux is a low cost operating system that allows me maximum flexibility in how and what I use it for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been paying a local computer geek to help me get Linux set up right. So it isn't exactly free. But I figure that is a good investment to make sure I get this set up right, and I'm developing a working relationship with another home based business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I haven't asked him if I can mention him in my blog, so I wont do that in this post. Would I mention him in my blog, or on my blog?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can check and write email from my new phone. I wonder if I can write a blog post with it. I'll check that out today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Getting all this stuff set up into a reasonably functional home office infrastructure is fairly complicated work. I need to get my phone and computer synchronized. I need to get my Paypal working right, with my bank, Lulu.com, my website and blog, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm getting ready to start focusing on my Herbalife business. I need to start generating income and this seems like the best way for me to start generating a stream of income, other than my job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A high performance home office resource center and holistic healing and teaching system are the two main themes of my business. The Herbalife and the SBI! are important components of that system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Herbalife is a high quality nutritional products business that offers me a way to earn income, to monetize my holistic healing and teaching business. This will enable me to work on healing poverty, for myself and my customers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People suffering from extreme poverty don't have a lot of money to invest in health care. So being able to share my holistic healing and teaching for little or no price, is a valuable capability as my business evolves. Earning income through my Herbalife business will help to make that possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SBI! business is the heart of my home office resource center. It is a professional commercial website and business development system. Kubuntu, Android, Google and SBI! are major suppliers of products and services for the high performance home office resource center I'm developing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is fun. I like writing these stories, and I like working on all this business infrastructure and computer science stuff.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2912463453585111043?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2912463453585111043/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/kubuntu-and-android.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2912463453585111043'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2912463453585111043'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/kubuntu-and-android.html' title='Kubuntu and Android'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2063910268355289257</id><published>2010-08-26T19:36:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-08-26T20:15:29.350-06:00</updated><title type='text'>The Harmony of Science and Religion</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been reading Sean Carroll's book about evolutionary development, Endless Forms Most Beautiful, (&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;2005&lt;/span&gt;). It's a fascinating story about embryonic development, genetics and evolution. A great story that compliments the many other stories about natural history that I've read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've noticed that a lot of these stories about natural history from the science community include anti-religious sentiments. Like science proves that religion is false. That if evolution is real, then religion must be wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I find that science has discovered that the biblical and other religious stories are true. Science has described in fairly great detail, how life has evolved from the chemistry of the earth. The Bible says that God created man from clay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most creation stories that I've read, imply in some sense or another, that man comes from the earth. The only one the doesn't, is a relatively recent idea that we were implanted here by aliens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The prejudice on the Christian side is just as bad as that on the science side. Many times, when I try to have a rational conversation with Christians about natural history, they get really irrational.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe science and religion are complimentary aspects of the search for truth. Science and religion are in harmony with each other. It is only individual people who harbor irrational prejudice against one or the other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I say to Christians, that arguing against information that everyone can see with our own eyes is at least an aspect of reality, are making Christianity seem ridiculous in our collective culture. Christianity is not ridiculous or irrational. It is a true story about spiritual reality. It is in harmony with the truth, including the truth about natural reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And science is about measuring natural reality as it is. Not how we think it ought to be. Scientist have a right to believe whatever they want to believe, just like everyone else. What they don't have a right to do is impose an anti-religious dogma in the name of science.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suppose the writers have a right to include their own personal opinions in their stories about natural reality. I know I do. It just seems so unscientific and not spiritual to argue against either science or religion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Men and women are equal. Racial harmony is natural and healthy. The human race is coming together. The United Nations is the greatest civilization that has ever existed on earth. It is our global federation of nations. Our universal common wealth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that Adam, Noah, Krishna, Abraham, Zoroaster, Moses, Buddha, Jesus Christ, Muhammad, The Bab and Baha'u'llah are all One and the same divine Teacher.

But it looks fine and I'm already familiar with Firefox browser and OpenOffice.org. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I suppose its like driving trucks, every truck is different. You have to get used to the controls on each truck and all the various nuances of shifting and braking, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll have to get used to using Linux and I'll get really good at it. I seem to be getting experienced using a pretty substantial list of inexpensive home office products. Li&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;nux has always been part of my plan for building a profitable home office and Internet commerce system for myself and a home office resource center for my readers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We home office entrepreneurs are going to have to conserve resources. We don't have multi-million dollar budgets to work with. At least not to start with. So, learning how to use inexpensive open source software is a useful skill that will blend right in with my other talents and abilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been reading the Green Millionaire. A story about ways and means of conserving resources and saving money by living in harmony with our natural habitat. So, as I get familiar with this Ubuntu Linux and start focusing on my home office resource center, I'll be writing about using open source software in an ecologically sustainable way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main reason I like open source is that I get to control it, rather than Microsoft or whatever controlling it through the license. I'm not so convinced that I like the free price part. It definitely makes it affordable. However, computer programmers deserve to be rewarded for their creative freedom and productivity, just like everyone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could use this as part of my solution to poverty and homelessness. But again, while it is inexpensive, poor people can't make any money selling stuff that is free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suppose I'll use some form of the Google business model. Giving my holistic healing and teaching systems away for free while advertising other commercial products and services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll be getting a new phone that runs on Google Android this Friday. Then I'll work on getting my Android to talk to my Ubuntu and I'll have a pretty decent communications network for delivering my holistic healing and teaching.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I'm not supposed to be writing about this stuff. That writing about my own agenda is not attractive or profitable, but that is what's on my mind right now. This is part of the high performance home office resource stuff. I'm learning this stuff by experiencing it and sharing it with readers while I'm learning it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll have a lot more to write about this in the future. For example, I've been reading The Official Ubuntu Book (&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Hill, Helmke, Burger&lt;/span&gt;). Its mostly about the Ubuntu philosophy and community and programming Linux. I'm a little interested in that, but I'm much more interested in using Linux to do other things. So, I'll get some experience and then write about using Ubuntu Linux to do things other than developing Ubuntu Linux.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I definitely like the Ubuntu philosophy. It is very similar to the Baha'i Faith. That whole world community growing together theme. I agree with and support that. I don't know very much about founder Mark Shuttleworth, so I'm not sure I like the benevolent dictator idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like consultation. Collective decision making process based on democracy and spirituality. You can be sure that I'll have more to say about the Ubuntu philosophy, as well as using Ubuntu, in our high performance home offices.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5173006145848768138?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5173006145848768138/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/i-finally-made-switch-to-ubuntu-linux.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5173006145848768138'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5173006145848768138'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/i-finally-made-switch-to-ubuntu-linux.html' title='Ubuntu Linux'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5191388753249857989</id><published>2010-08-08T16:37:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-08-08T16:56:14.760-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Rambling on About Working/Writing</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been working a lot of hours driving truck. I also lost my Internet connection at home. So my posts to this blog will probably be less frequent than they have been for a while. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I try to be the best, most productive worker I can be at any job I get. That's what I'm doing at my job now. I want the company I work for to be profitable. I want the company to be green, as in environmentally conscious. So I always practice harmony while I'm working, with everyone involved and with our natural habitat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not perfect. I lose my temper sometimes and I'm pretty grouchy. I complain a lot. That's one of my character defects that I am working on improving myself and helping others. Do what's best for everyone, not just yourself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm investing some of the income from my job in tools I can use for my holistic healing and teaching business. I still have the two business ideas in my heart and mind, the holistic healing and teaching business, and the home office entrepreneur buisness. I'm focusing on the holistic healing and teaching first, because I have some success in my own recovery and I've studied the subject quite a bit more than the business ideas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I just consider the home office entrepreneur and the social and economic development of human society, to be integral aspects of holistic healing. Healing poverty is important to me because I've suffered extreme poverty myself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm wondering how I'm going to get my writing to be attractive and entertaining. I feel like I'm howling at the wind right now. I like my stories, but I don't think anyone is reading them. Perhaps people think I'm arrogant or maybe my writing is not easy to read. Both the style and the substance may not be popular.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I really want this to be a conversation. I like responding to comments and having conversations. I don't like people heckling other people on the Internet though. I want to have rational conversations, not the socially retarded barbarian conversation. I figure that I'll delete any disrespectful comments. But I welcome reasonable conversation and diverse opinions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5191388753249857989?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5191388753249857989/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/rambling-on-about-workingwriting.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5191388753249857989'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5191388753249857989'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/08/rambling-on-about-workingwriting.html' title='Rambling on About Working/Writing'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2898828626566988962</id><published>2010-07-23T04:56:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-23T05:23:38.449-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Herbalife</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I selected the Herbalife line of products because after a considerable amount of comparison shopping, I figured that Herbalife was the best. Herbalife offers a line of general nutrition products with an emphasis on weight management.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Being overwieght and obesity are obviously serious health problems for our generation of people who live in advanced industrial societies. So promoting the Herbalife products seems like something that I can do, that will have a healthy influence in our society.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Herbalife also has a small line of skin care products, such as soap and shampoo, etc., which adds value to the line of products.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Herbalife is a network marketing company, which is an excellent business model in my opinion. It's an inexpensive way to get into the big business quadrant of the cash flow quadrant (&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;1998,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Kiyosaki, Cash Flow Quadrant&lt;/span&gt;). I intend to work on at least one network marketing project as one of my multiple streams of income.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I like the shakes and the Aloa Vera juice. I'm waiting expectantly for my first monthly order. I found out about Herbalife through one of the Herbalife clubs. I like the club house model of healing and that is another factor that appeals to me for selecting Herbalife rather than some of the other companies I investigated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Eat good, fresh, whole food to nurish your body. Be mindful of all your thoughts, words and deeds. Your moral and spiritual welfare is far more important than your physical welfare. Pay attention to the entertainment and the education you participate in. Make sure the stories are positive and uplifting, not degrading or dehumanizing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practice detachment from everything except God, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;independence from everyone except God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you and your family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2898828626566988962?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2898828626566988962/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/i-selected-herbalife-line-of-products.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2898828626566988962'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2898828626566988962'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/i-selected-herbalife-line-of-products.html' title='Herbalife'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-7977854959601488778</id><published>2010-07-21T05:27:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-21T06:06:52.592-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Self Determination</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I'm not recommending that people follow my example for health and success. I'm recommending that people investigate their own self, their own wants and needs. We're all unique individuals, with both genetic and social components of the development of our personality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;So, know yourself. Develop your own plan that's based on that self knowledge, and follow that plan. My objective is to encourage and assist people to do that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;If you prefer to have someone else design your business system, then join a network marketing business, such as Pre Paid Legal Services or Herbalife. They seem to encourage people to operate their business the way the most successful people do. You know? Everyone repeats the proven pattern of success. There's nothing wrong with that business model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I encourage people to develop their own unique business model. Develop one of a diverse assortment of business models. There is no one size fits all business model. There is no one right way to do business, other than honorably, etc.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Most people say that focusing on a specialty is the most effective business strategy, and there is nothing wrong with that business strategy either. I, on the other hand, have a holistic perspective of human nature and civilization. I prefer developing the multiple streams of income business model. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;My plan is to develop a web based holistic healing and teaching business based on the Site Build It integrated ecommerce system. I had intended to recommend the Herbalife line of nutritional products. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I also plan on recommending Nightingale/Conant educational products. I intend to attend the Bennet/Stellar university to attain credentials to be a Neuro Linguistic Programing coach and hypnotherapist. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm putting this system together piece by piece and the pieces often don't like to work together. I suppose that is my responsibility. To make all the pieces of the business work together synergistically.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've read that writing about your own business is not good for business. Well, I present these ideas with the attitude that reading about my thoughts and struggles will help people going through a similar process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This has been my style from the beginning. To mingle my thoughts and ideas and opinions about how you can be successful, into stories about my own personality and business development process. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Which, by the way, has not been very pretty. I have struggled. Remember that I spent most of 2009 living in missions in and around Wyoming. The network marketing companies trying to make me follow their proven path to success, is just another voice discouraging me from developing my own business. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Set yourself free from the culture of dependence. Mind your own business, instead of doing what you're told to do, how and when you're told to do it. Creative freedom is an inherent attribute of human nature. Freedom and equality are the same thing. Like the two sides of a coin. They're inseperable. We can't have one without the other.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;And make sure you practice spirituality in your professional life. Seek moral and spiritual education and practice spirituality at all times and in all circumstances. Practice harmlessness and be trustworthy. Love and obey Almighty God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7977854959601488778?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7977854959601488778/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/self-determination.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7977854959601488778'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7977854959601488778'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/self-determination.html' title='Self Determination'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5608566668891534765</id><published>2010-07-18T19:59:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-18T20:42:12.433-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Mind Your Own Multiple Streams of Income</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;One of the first Nightingale/Conant audio programs I listened to was Robert Allen's, &lt;em&gt;Multiple Streams of Income&lt;/em&gt;. It's the one that inspired me to start investigating and developing a business online. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I had been studying Carleton Sheets' real estate investing business and I was listening to Robert Allen's tapes and thinking that it seemed a little impractical for me to be working on investing in real estate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I had already majored in computer science for a semester of college and I had been a fire control technician (missiles) in the Navy. So it seems to me like internet commerce is the ideal business for me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've also been studying history and philosophy, science and religion, ever since I learned how to read. So, I'm thinking writing a blog about those subjects and developing multiple streams of income from several affiliate and network marketing companies is a good idea for me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Now, I realize that most people, including many of my favorite mentors, recommend focusing on one niche. I've always had a broad perspective of things. I like investigating all sides of any subject. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Its the same in religion. They all say they are each the one and only true religion. Well, I believe they are all right, they are all the one and only true religion. I get a lot of hostility because I like them all. I'm not prejudiced against any of them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The same with nations and races. I love the entire human race. I don't like everything and I complain a lot about things I don't like. But the entire human race is my tribe. We, the people of earth, are responsible for creating a safe, clean and decent society for all people everywhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I intend to develop multiple streams of income from my holistic healing and teaching business. I am not looking for a job selling someone else's products. I'm looking for lines of products and services, that I can recommend in my holistic healing and teaching business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Holistic implies that it includes all aspects of human health and welfare. Nutritional, exercise, psychological, sociological, and spiritual. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Developing the right proportion of material and spiritual ideas is another issue I'm investigating. It seems like we can either write about spiritual matters or material matters, but mixing them together is unpopular.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I have a holistic perspective of human nature and recommend that everyone have an attitude of equality, free enterprise and justice for all people everywhere. Everyone wins in business. If anyone loses in any transaction, then it is corruption, not business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The human race is coming together. The whole world economy is booming. There is more wealth, more widespread, now, than ever before in history. The United Nations is the greatest civilization that has ever existed on earth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Baha'u'llah is the Promised One of every religion. He is the return of Jesus Christ in the station of the Father. The Messiah coming in the Glory of God. He's the Fifth Buddha, the Tenth Avatar of Hinduism, the reincarnation of the Lord Krishna. Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5608566668891534765?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5608566668891534765/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/mind-your-own-multiple-streams-of.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5608566668891534765'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5608566668891534765'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/mind-your-own-multiple-streams-of.html' title='Mind Your Own Multiple Streams of Income'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5413436600949558040</id><published>2010-07-15T05:35:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-15T06:03:22.637-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Be Mindful of What You Eat</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Eating whole food, rather than processed food, is one of the most basic things we can do for living healthy and wealthy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The processed food is poisoning the people of earth. We are currently experiencing a global pandemic of obesity and related diseases, such as diabeties and heart disease. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The first thing we need to do to heal this personal and social disease, is to be mindful of what we eat. Pay attention to the food you eat. Is it healthy food? It is not that hard to figure that out. And the healthy food actually tastes better than the junk food in my opinion. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Of course, the junk food is engineered to taste good. The nutrients are processed out of the food in order to make it last longer on the store shelves, and that causes people to want more food because we're not getting the right proportion nutrients we need to live healthy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The good healthy whole food is available. Pick and choose while you shop. Buy fresh food. And there are several companies selling nutritious food suppliments that replace the nutrients that are removed during food processing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Herbalife is one such company that I'm planning on investing in this week. It will be a great addition to my holistic healing and teaching system. It will start generating incoming cash flow that I can use to invest in the other components of my holistic healing and teaching business. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The Site Build It website development system and the Nightingale/Conant educational products are other products and services I will add to my little cluster of businesses. I also plan to attend the Bennet/Stellar University and learn the Neuro Linguistic Programing method for both healing and sales. And then I'll actually have credentials that will make my holistic healing and teaching business legitimate. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I believe I have good strong medicine. Having to develop my holistic healing and teaching career in such adverse conditions, contributes to making my medicine stronger. I would welcome any assistance I can get, in fact I still have a donation link that still works on this blog. However, the monumental effort I've had to make to create this business, in spite of all the discouraging peer pressure, makes my stories more valuable and less dependent on the approval of the establishment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be mindful of what you eat and especially what you listen to and watch. Watch good, clean entertainment and education, not the sexual immorality, drug abuse and violence Hollywood is selling. We're all responsible and accountable for our own health. Help make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5413436600949558040?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5413436600949558040/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/be-mindful-of-what-you-eat.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5413436600949558040'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5413436600949558040'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/be-mindful-of-what-you-eat.html' title='Be Mindful of What You Eat'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2572434514032370699</id><published>2010-07-13T20:19:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-13T20:36:09.340-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Family Values</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The marriage of one man with one woman is really the only healthy context for human sexuality, and for raising children. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;"&lt;em&gt;In his book,&lt;/em&gt; Life Without Father&lt;em&gt;, sociologist David Popenoe describes how 60 percent of America's rapists, 72 percent of juvenile murderers and 70 percent of long-term prisoners grew up in fatherless homes&lt;/em&gt;." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;(&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Wilkinson, Pickett, The Spirit Level, p 137&lt;/span&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Not only are the fathers teaching the kids a terrible lesson by example, they're leaving them in poverty.

Racism and nationalism are pathological distortions of human consciousness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This unity in diversity can and should be taught at home in our families, and in our public schools. It should be practiced at all times and in all circumstances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Everyone wins in business. Promise more than you deliver. Always serve everyone. Management and labor are on the same team and should be working together for the benefit of everyone. Customers are not always right, but deserve to be treated honestly and respectfully. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Stockholders have a legitimate right to earn a profit on their investment. Employees have a right to earn fair wages and a percentage of the profits from the factory they work in. Make sure you get that profit sharing check.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;CEOs earning 500 times more than their employees, is blatant, in your face corruption. They are looting the companies they're working for. They're stealing from their employees, and their customers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Hoarding the earth's resources and the wealth of our free enterprise is a very oppressive corruption of the human economy. Greed is a very harmful character defect. There are millions of people alive on earth who barely have anything to eat. The excess accumulation of wealth and poverty are an immoral and corrupt perversion of free enterprise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The founding fathers of the United States of America mentioned that in order for this experiment with capitalist democracy to work, the people would have to be religious. The people would need to be responsible free agents, who have a moral as well as an intellectual education.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practice whatever form of religion you believe in, in a kind, friendly and respectful way. Religious bigotry and persecution are gross distortions of the teaching of any true religion. The attitude that our Lord Jesus Christ consistently challenged during His ministry, is the attitude of superiority and self rightiousness of the Saduccees and Pharisees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I believe that Adam, Noah, Krishna, Abraham, Zoroaster, Moses, Buddha, Jesus Christ, Muhammad, The Bab and Baha'u'llah are all one and the same divine Teacher. They all teach the exactly identical, eternal, unchanging Faith of God. Of course, they all use different stories to explain the same principles to people in various times and places.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;They are all individual personalities, and they are all One Soul. They are the Manifestation of God, Who appears every thousand years or so to reveal the Word of God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Thank God Jesus saved us. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There is only one Almighty God and Muhammad is His Apostle. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4531074902336883739?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4531074902336883739/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/human-spirit.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4531074902336883739'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4531074902336883739'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/human-spirit.html' title='The Human Spirit'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-384839267728331188</id><published>2010-07-09T06:14:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-09T22:09:22.510-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Do Whats Best For Everyone</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been thinking about how to teach the human race to do whats best for everyone, not just ourselves.

While I'm driving the dump truck, mostly on long road trips rather than in city traffic, I've been thinking that I want to figure out how to teach my philosophy in an entertaining way. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I hear that reading is not very popular any more. I like to read. And judging by the book stores and libraries, I'm not the only one. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The style of my writing is probably not very elegant. I like my style and my content, I just think it's not flowing very gracefully like I want it to be. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The benefit for you, the reader of these stories, is that you get to read about me developing my writing talent, while I'm developing it. That's a valuable teaching tool that you can use for your own writing career. These stories will inspire you to continue to write. Perhaps they'll inspire some good ideas that you never thought of before. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Natural history, culture, civilization, philosophy and business, science and religion are interesting subjects. My first obstacle is that I have no credentials. People treat me like, Who do I think I am? writing about stuff like that. I'm a human being, alive on earth right now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Its fun. Its way more interesting than any made up story. Truth and reality are fascinating, and that's what I like to write about.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'll keep writing and I'll work on making both the content of my stories and the style of my writing entertaining.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be calm, gentle, peaceful and serene.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-1849902679583234711?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/1849902679583234711/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/i-want-my-stories-to-be-entertaining.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/1849902679583234711'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/1849902679583234711'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/i-want-my-stories-to-be-entertaining.html' title='Entertaining Readers'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3467105855084612894</id><published>2010-07-05T19:27:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2010-07-05T20:04:50.430-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Publishing Holistic Human Being</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Publishing Holistic Human Being on Lulu.com is a major milestone for my writing and e-commerce project. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I started this writing business by writing stories directly onto a free Google website. Then I started this blog and I've been writing pretty consistently ever since. I stopped writing on the website and the blog in January because they were not attracting any attention and I decided to work on converting the stories into an e-book. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I restarted the blog a while back and now, I have a pretty good job driving a dump truck here in Cheyenne. So I have a little capital to work with. I just need to keep writing on the blog. Keep it going. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been working on the book lately. Its still in a fairly rough style. Its my first published book. I did it by myself with virtually no help from anyone, other than all the authors of the books I've read. I'll work on improving my writing style. I have other stories in the works and I'll get them finished and publish them on my Lulu.com store.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm planning on starting up my Site Build It business during this construction season, while I have the truck driving job, and the capital to work with. Then, I'll have several months of unemployment to work full time on my business. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I realize this subject is probably not very interesting for my readers, but it has been part of my story from the beginning, and you know what they say about writing a list of goals. Well, I'm writing my business plan right into my blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm blazing a trail for creating a profitable home office starting from extreme poverty, unemployment and homelessness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I think Holistic Human Being is a great book. I like my writing style, even though there are still a lot of rough spots. I figure writing a lot, will help smooth out those rough spots. The more stories I write, the more gracefully they'll flow.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Its the content, rather than the style, of Holistic human Being that is really excellent in my opinion. I think most people are going to be taken aback by me confronting such a fundamental aspect of modern society as education and credentials. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;At first, I thought some of my ideas are kind of radical, like fighting windmills, but then, I think they are good ideas that will ad value to our conversation about improving human nature and civilization. I could be wrong. They're just my own personal ideas and opinions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I believe they are harmless and will help anyone who reads them be more successful. They will contribute to creating a safe, clean and decent society for all people everywhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3467105855084612894?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3467105855084612894/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/publishing-holistic-human-being.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3467105855084612894'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3467105855084612894'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/07/publishing-holistic-human-being.html' title='Publishing Holistic Human Being'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5043476692463555011</id><published>2010-06-20T21:08:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2010-06-20T21:47:54.646-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Some Fathers Day Philosophy</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Fathers are one of the most important people in the world. My father left when I was 2 years old. My first step father beat my mom and my second step father was not physically violent, but not very respectful of my mom. And he seems more like a friend than a father. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I did learn a lot of good things from my second step father. I consider him to be my most real father, at least socially. I like my biological heritage. I belong to the Celtic tribe of human beings, spreading out from the shores of the north Atlantic. I'm an American Baha'i.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Kids really need both a father and a mother to grow up healthy. That is the way our brain and mind have evolved, or are created. The absence of either the father or the mother is like not having arms. We can survive, but it is not the natural and healthy configuration of a human family. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Evolution and creation are the same thing. Creation is what happens, evolution is how it happens.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The marriage of one man and one woman into a human family is a biological, psychological, sociological and spiritual adaptation of human nature and civilization. The union of two people of the opposite gender is, of course, a biological attribute of all life on earth. Marriage and family are aspects of human nature and civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In fact, besides the idea God, the human language and the human family are the most primal attributes of human nature and civilization. The human family has existed since long before any state was ever thought of. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Religion is an inherent attribute of human nature. It's the difference between wild animals and civilized human beings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Healthy human beings practice spirituality in our families, in our careers and businesses and in every other aspect of life on earth. Practice moral and spiritual principles at all times and under all circumstances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Civilization evolves on purpose, it is not an accident. We, the people of earth, are responsible and accountable for creating a safe, clean and decent society for all people everywhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Let's turn our swords into plowshares. Be of service and practice harmlessness, not selfish ambition and competition. Do whats best for everyone, not just ourselves.

It is possible and we are making significant progress. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;One of the most difficult aspects of the project is making it practical for a minority to practice the spiritual way of life, in the midst of a human civilization that is still heavily influenced by selfish ambition and competition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The best way to influence the vast and complex system that human civilization is, is to practice the moral and spiritual principles in our own lives. We can and should practice them at all time and in all circumstances. It won't work if we study spirituality and meditate, and then act out of selfish ambition and competition at work. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practicing the moral and spiritual principles in our careers and our businesses is one of the most effective ways that we can influence human civilization in a good and healthy and spiritual way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I am a servant of Baha'u'llah.

Reading, studying and learning are one of my favorite activities, and I've been doing it ever since I learned how to read. Remember that little red train that could? It just kept chugging along.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Even when I became a homeless drug addict I kept reading. I'm pretty sure that most of the homeless people hanging out in the library in Reno Nevada in about 1988 or so, were not studying nuclear physics. I was reading stories about Quantum Chromo-Dynamics, about the strong nuclear force in the form of gluons, holding three quarks together to form a hadron, a proton or neutron. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There are about 15 different kinds of quarks. Color is one of the variable attributes of quarks. And the combination of the three quarks determines whether the hadron is a proton or a neutron. Kind of like alleles are variations of a particular gene in DNA.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Anyway, I have always had a desire or interest in learning my way out of the poverty and trouble I have always been in, at least for as long as I can remember. Now, I've grown up and I have a first class education. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;However, I didn't get my education in school. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Some people seem to think that I should be content to be a truck driver or some such tradesman. I actually do drive a truck, because its a decent income and an honorable trade. However, I also want to use my education to help myself and other people, improve human nature and civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;While, I agree that schools are an excellent way to measure education and aptitude and all that, I think my education is superior to the education that people get from schools. My education is very broad and deep. I've studied a very wide variety of subjects and some of them very extensively. And, I have not been subjected to the political indoctrination and propaganda that is an integral aspect of the academic corriculum. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I admit that I'm not qualified to be a surgeon. I believe that I am qualified to be a holistic healer and teacher. That I can help people improve themselves, and live healthy and wealthy. People with credentials have caused far more harm to patients and students, than people without credentials.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The intellectual monopoly that our government and our educational establishment is imposing on our people and our culture is immoral and oppressive. Schools are not the only way that people learn. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This arbitrary cast system based on education and credentials, is creating a giant class of people who have no respect for education or authority, because their self respect requires them to reject the superiority, and hence inferiority, inherent in any such ruling class of human beings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Swarms of poor people and morally retarded barbarians are striving to survive in the midst of an unjust human civilization, because our educational establishment has imposed this self righteous secular philosophy, that any sane person will reject. They're outcasts and often outlaws. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This can not be right. We want and need a diverse assortment of options for people to learn, to improve ourselves and to recover, if necessary. No child left behind is exactly the right attitude for educational professionals. They should be figuring out how to do that, instead of complaining that its too hard to do. That some kid's parents are not good parents and there is nothing the teachers can do about that. Shame on our educational establishment for rejecting such an honorable objective.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Our schools can and should be using every available means to educate and train our people to be global citizens. They should be promulgating family values, instead of undermining them. And our public schools can and should have a reasonable religious education integrated into the corriculum. All this religious bigotry in our society is caused by a lack of religious education, not an excess of religious education.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Seek the truth and the truth will set you free.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-8209410748790774424?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/8209410748790774424/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/06/i-like-seeking-truth.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8209410748790774424'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8209410748790774424'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/06/i-like-seeking-truth.html' title='Education and Credentials for Progress, not Oppression'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-4355359401752950825</id><published>2010-06-12T10:28:00.008-06:00</published><updated>2010-06-12T18:04:35.996-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Being the Best We Can Be</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Life is a process of improving ourselves and helping others.

It brings joy into our lives, and has a pleasant and healthy influence on the people around us as well. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be mindful of the entertainment and education we participate in. The health and welfare of our soul is far more important than the health and welfare of our bodies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt; A human soul is created at conception, and grows through several stages of development, and then continues to make progress forever in the Abha Kingdom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be mindful of what we eat. Eat good healthy whole food, not processed food. Exercise. Take good care of our bodies. They are the temple in which our souls are growing spiritually, just like our mothers womb is the precious environment in which our bodies were formed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I keep repeating these sayings because, it's obvious that most people are not aware of this very basic information about human nature. That we are responsible and accountable for our own thoughts, words and deeds. That we can influence the health and welfare of our human nature, for good or harm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practice harmlessness. The exact nature of my wrongs is that they are harmful, to myself or anyone else. My character defects are things I do that are harmful, such as stealing. My shortcomings are things I don't do that are harmful, such as being honest and trustworthy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Create peace and harmony, at all times and under all circumstances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Which brings up the issue of self defense. Harmlessness needs to be practical and realistic, not fanatical. Self defense is an unalienable human right. Use the minimal amount of force necessary to defend ourselves, and then escape. Never seek vengence or try to harm the attacker.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In fact, during self defense we should be mindful of protecting our attacker, as well as ourselves. Have compassion for people who do not recognize the intrinsic value of humanity, and be a good example. Teach the attacker that there is another way of life, through our example.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Strive to decrease the conflict and contention in human nature and civilization. Minimize our defects, maximize our assets. Investigate reality, seek the truth. Its way more fun and interesting than watching some made up story glorifying human perversity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human beings require education and training. Learning and teaching are inherent attributes of human nature. We can and should intentionally strive, to make sure that our education and cultural interdependence is good and healthy, not harmful or destructive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace, harmony and loving kindness are inherent attributes of human nature. Nuture them, in all aspects of human nature and civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Thanks be to God, the human race is coming together, into one universal and divine civilization. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4355359401752950825?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4355359401752950825/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/06/being-best-you-can-be.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4355359401752950825'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4355359401752950825'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/06/being-best-you-can-be.html' title='Being the Best We Can Be'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-4093257457447186668</id><published>2010-06-04T10:34:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2010-06-16T19:47:13.230-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Human Nature and Civilization</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The United Nations is the most spectacularly advanced and prosperous civilization that has ever existed on earth. Have you seen the Burj Khalifa? Or downtown Shanghai? Wow! We are building an astonishing habitat for humanity all over the earth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We've recently completed the Human Genome Project, mapping the human genome and uploading it onto our World Wide Web of information, communications and entertainment. Now, we can purchase a copy of our own personal human genome for less than $500. And use that self awareness to make healthy decisions to prevent disease, as well as heal disease.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;100,000 years from now, scientists will be digging around looking for the pollution layer, just like today's scientists look for the Iridium layer associated with the extinction of dinosaurs. Before the pollution layer there will be fossil evidence of disease, crime and war. After the pollution layer there will be fossil evidence of one universal common wealth, evolving in peace, harmony and prosperity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Don't get me wrong, there are lots of problems that need to be worked on and solved. The current oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is an immense disaster for the earth's biosphere. And I suspect the political and economic results of the disaster are going to be even worse than the ecological consequences.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;And the conflict and contention in our global society seems to be reaching a crescendo. The United Nations is a political and economic unity, a global federation of nations. It's just a stage in the process of the evolution of that Most Great Peace, that universal and divine civilization, promised in the Word of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The best way that we can improve human nature and civilization is to be kind, friendly and polite. Love and respect each other. Intentionally live in peace and prosperity and harmony with each other and our natural habitat. Replace our aggressive self interest and competition, with being of service and doing what's best for everyone, not just ourselves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be mindful of what we eat. Eat good healthy whole food, not processed food. Being mindful of what we watch, our entertainment and education, is even more important than what we eat. Moral and spiritual injury is far more harmful than physical injury. The stories we tell our next generation of human nature and civilization are vitally important to our future well being.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be here now, and remember our ancesters and their stories, and be mindful of the stories, and the civilization, that we leave our future generations. Let's create a peaceful and prosperous human nature and civilization, not a slum of selfish ambition and competition, sexual immorality, drug abuse and violence run amok.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practice detachment from everything except God, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Independence from everyone except God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4093257457447186668?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4093257457447186668/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/06/united-nations-is-most-spectacularly.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4093257457447186668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4093257457447186668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/06/united-nations-is-most-spectacularly.html' title='Human Nature and Civilization'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-8503827526378590078</id><published>2010-05-31T07:27:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2010-06-16T19:49:34.978-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Education and Credentials.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I agree that education and credentials are a good and necessary aspect of civilization. It's the attitude of superiority, and hence inferiority, that I object to. The bullying. The rule of lawyers, and other experts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We do need to have the education and credentials, we just need to make sure they benefit all the people and do not become a mental and spiritual prison, that gives people who have credentials authority over people who don't have credentials. This is an unconstitutional distortion of the rule of law. The American revolution abolished any such ruling class.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Schools are not the only way to attain education. And we want people to be able to improve themselves in whatever way works best for them. Teaching is one of the most valuable trades, but that does not give teachers the right to monopolize judging what people can and can not do for a living. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human beings are free agents, and have an inherent right to self determination. Almighty God has created us that way and even He says, He will not interfere with that freewill. There is no compulsion in religion. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Baha'u'llah says that if He came down out of the sky floating on a cloud like some people expect Him to, everyone would be dumbfounded, no one would be able to believe or not believe and that would be harmful. Baha'u'llah also says that if He wanted to, He could instantly make every human being believe in Him, but that would be harmful and is not His objective.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;While education and credentials are a vital aspect of human civilization, do not make them into a mental and spiritual prison. An excess of civilization is just as harmful as anarchy. Human civilization is whatever we human beings make it. Lets make human civilization a safe, clean and decent society for all human beings, not just those with lots of education and credentials.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-8503827526378590078?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/8503827526378590078/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/education-and-credentials.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8503827526378590078'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/8503827526378590078'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/education-and-credentials.html' title='Education and Credentials.'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-6400110978540735547</id><published>2010-05-29T08:33:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-05-29T08:36:40.576-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Help Make the World a Better Place</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Do what's best for everyone, not just yourself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Spirituality is the difference between self determination and self centeredness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Thank God Jesus saved us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There is only one Almighty God, and Muhammad is His Apostle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-6400110978540735547?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/6400110978540735547/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/help-make-world-better-place.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6400110978540735547'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6400110978540735547'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/help-make-world-better-place.html' title='Help Make the World a Better Place'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-8324515945202310724</id><published>2010-05-26T09:45:00.007-06:00</published><updated>2010-06-04T14:12:01.954-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Ideas and Opinions about Cultural Anthropology</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Free speech and freedom of conscience are universal human rights. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I do want and need to work on making my stories entertaining and educational. I want to be less contentious and more happy and optimistic.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In fact, I am very happy and optimistic. I'm one of the most optimistic people I know. I like human nature and civilization. I'm thankful that I found out about Baha'u'llah. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I see the good in human nature and the bad. I believe that the United Nations is the greatest civilization that has ever existed on earth. I also realize that it is not perfect. There are a lot of problems that need to be worked on and solved. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I tend to complain a lot and I also seem to take the opposite point of view of whoever I'm talking to. I often defend people and civilization against other people's complaints. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I believe we need a small government that makes the rules and enforces them, and then lets people do whatever they want to do, as long as they follow the rules. I'm opposed to this nanny state government controlling all of our thoughts, words and deeds. And the Robin Hood state, taking money from rich people and giving it to poor people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Teach people the rules and let them follow the rules and work for their own profit and for our common wealth. "Capitalism is a social system based on the principle of individual rights." (&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Capitalism.org&lt;/span&gt;) Those individual rights must be exercised in a healthy balance with our family values, our community welfare and our universal common wealth, as well as be in harmony with our natural habitat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Do what's best for everyone, not just yourself. There is no compulsion in religion. This is a completely voluntary attitude and action. Oppression is the absence of justice. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human beings are noble creatures. Justice, compassion and t&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;he rule of law are inherent attributes of human nature. They're the difference between wild animals and civilized human beings, and the inner essence of our free agency. In other words, the rule of law is the cause, freedom is the effect. The rule of law causes freedom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Of course, Baha'u'llah is the Source of the rule of law.

The human race is only one family. Our racial and cultural diversity is a great strength of human nature. Unity in diversity, not uniformity, is healthy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In fact, a lot of the racial conflict is caused by people insisting on racial and cultural uniformity, which is a pathological distortion of human consciousness. Being hostile toward people who are different is morally retarded. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I say retarded because it is usually a result of a lack of education. Dictionary.com describes it as:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;"Retard:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;"verb, 1. to make slow; delay the development or progress of (an action, process, etc.) hinder or impede. 2. to be delayed&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;"noun, 3. a slowing down, diminution, or hindrance, as in a machine. 4. &lt;em&gt;slang: disparaging,&lt;/em&gt; a. a mentally retarded person, b. a person who is stupid, obtuse, or ineffective in some way: &lt;em&gt;a hopeless social retard. ..."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In other words, civilized human beings understand that all human beings are precious. All the conflict and contention in human history is caused by a lack of understanding of that natural and spiritual reality. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Create calm, peace and harmony.

I am opposed to individuals or companies being able to patent and own life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Probably the most sinister conspiracy in the world today is that corporations are genetically modifying food crops and patenting them. What a diabolical nightmare it is, that any person or corporation or government or any other human organization may someday own patents on all the food in the world. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We, the people of earth, ought to be doing something about this. The first thing we should do is to change the law, by whatever means necessary, that says corporations have the same rights as individual people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We like business and prosperity, we just do not want businesses to be able to interfere in our government of the people, by the people and for the people. Our political system is completely corrupt because of the money businesses are spending to influence our government. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This ought to be illegal. Just pass the legislation. We declared our independence and passed the US Consitution in order to set ourselves free from the aristocratic feudalism. I vote that we need to do so again, to set ourselves free from the corporate hegemony that characterizes our global economy today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Let's make the effort to create real free enterprise, equal opportunity and justice for all people everywhere. Every generation has to secure their own freedom. This is our generation's struggle for human rights. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The whole world economy is booming. There is more prosperity, more widespread, than ever before in history. This is a great blessing and we want our businesses and our economy to be propserous.

Many of the people around me seem to think I'm not qualified to do this. They act like I'm on some wild goose chase.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I suppose that what I need to do now is to be steadfast. I've been working on this project for many years. Many of my problems are self inflicted. I'm the one who got myself into this situation in the first place. And I admit that my personality is very eccentric. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not very reliable or trustworthy. On the one hand, this is a character defect that I'm working on improving about myself. On the other hand, I'm creating this Internet commerce system to compensate for this aspect of my personality. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm working on setting up a system that will work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year. My productivity cames in waves and this automatic, computerized system can compensate for that uneven rhythm of productivity and income.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I have a first class education and no credentials. Some of my best friends act like my education is worthless and useless and ask me who I think I am, talking and writing about the subjects I write about. They say I have no credibility. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I say, that I am a human being, alive on earth right here and now. I've been seeking the truth, studying and learning about a diverse assortment of subjects, for as long as I've been able to read, which is about 45 years. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The Internet makes it possible for me to publish my ideas. There is no gate keeper deciding what gets written and published, or taught and learned. Perhaps the Internet, or at least, blogging will end up being a fad. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm blazing a trail. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Others have come through here before me. I'm just adding my own perspective and working on developing a profitable and sustainable business on this education, communications and entertainment platform.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In response to the idea about me being arrogant or self centered. I say that human beings are noble creatures. I consider myself to be exactly equal to every other human being alive on this planet. There are almost 7 billion people alive on earth right now. I am one of them. Earth is a tiny speck of dust floating around in a vast and complex universe, that turns out to be very beautiful. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Almighty God is the Central Orb of the universe. The uncreated Creator. He generates natural and spiritual reality with less effort than it takes me to breathe. Thank God Jesus saved us. There is only one Almighty God, and Muhammad is His Apostle. Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-6092778903790868495?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/6092778903790868495/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-believe-in-myself.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6092778903790868495'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6092778903790868495'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-believe-in-myself.html' title='I Believe in Myself'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2928651194691849622</id><published>2010-05-19T20:46:00.007-06:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T13:07:13.440-06:00</updated><title type='text'>My Blogging Business</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;One of the things I want to do is focus on one topic. I tend to ramble around from topic to topic. I actually like to write about a variety of subjects, but I need to focus on one specialty to make my site attractive and profitable. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Which brings up the subject of developing profitable websites. I've heard and read several people mention that earning income from Internet activity is controversial. That seems odd to me. While, I enjoy writing and creating online art, I can't imagine why anyone would think it is unethical or immoral to earn a profit in the process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I don't think I'll focus on sales or business or self improvement. Too many other people, who are probably way more qualified than I am, are selling those ideas. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I might specialize in developing profitable home offices, getting homes off the energy grid, building green houses and other facets of the small scale ecological development theme. That's been my idea from the beginning. Thats where the holistic healing and teaching idea came from. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Writing about living healthy and wealthy, and working in an environmentally sustainable and profitable home office, has been my big idea ever since I started writing this blog between Thanksgiving and Christmas 2008. There's the personal well being, and then there's the ecological home and home office, ie., holistic healing and teaching.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I like the holistic healing topic because of all the research about human nature, health and holistic healing that I've done for my own personal recovery. World unity is another of my favorite topics, however, I think that will not be my first specialty, because I would want to travel around and report about activity going on at the UN and around the world that highlight world unity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Perhaps I'll have several sites. Each one specializing in a different specialty and all having the same or similar affiliate programs and Adsense, etc. I figure Google Adsense and a few affiliate programs is the best way to monetize my business system. I may learn otherwise in the process of developing my little cluster of websites.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Here I am, writing about my plans again! It always seems so interesting to me. I suppose that I'm sharing these ideas with the intention of attracting other people like me, who don't have a lot of resources, and are intellectually curious and surfing the web, and perhaps I can interest you in developing your own profitable, homestead on the cloud of online computer services. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm blazing a trail onto the World Wide Web for homeless people, recovering drug addicts, exconvicts, people suffering from poverty, working poor people and anyone else who is interested in the social and economic development of human nature and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;civilization. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;All of my stories are addressed to the entire human race, individually and collectively. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'd like to develop a video blog. I like writing, but I think many people don't like reading, especially on the Internet. So, I need to prepare myself to produce videos. Be a station, or several stations, of online information and entertainment. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I didn't feel like I had much to say when I started this post. I just started writing and I've written a pretty decent post. I'm not sure anyone will ever read it, or if you will like it if you do read it. I hope so. I hope my stories are interesting, entertaining and educational.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Keep on practice writing!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2928651194691849622?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2928651194691849622/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/my-blogging-business.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2928651194691849622'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2928651194691849622'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/my-blogging-business.html' title='My Blogging Business'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2673746588048366016</id><published>2010-05-18T09:05:00.008-06:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T11:23:13.865-06:00</updated><title type='text'>A Holistic Healing and Teaching Project</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;My holistic healing and teaching project is focused on healing human nature and improving human civilization. We're all interdependent. Individual human beings influence one another and society as a whole. Society influences individual human beings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;A holistic healing and teaching system will approach individual human beings, any intermediate social institutions, such as the family, businesses and governments, as well as religion and human civilization as a whole.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The Baha'i Faith, including all religion, is really the only solution to the sexual immorality, drug abuse, crime, violence and war, the materialist hedonism run amok in our society. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Selfish ambition and competition are the root cause of all the problems, and spirituality is the solution. What's the difference between self centeredness and self determination? Spirituality!&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Spirituality is the inner essence of religion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The difference between love and addiction is freedom. And freedom is lawful, not lawless. Moral and spiritual principles are the inner essence of the creative freedom inherent in human nature. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human beings are noble creatures that are born prematurely. We require education in order to grow into mature adult human beings. Almighty God, and the Religion of God, revealed by the Manifestation of God, is the only real Source of that divine education. That divine education is the difference between wild animals and civilized human beings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Secular education is a valuable contribution to improving human nature and advancing human civilization, however, it can not replace the divine education that seperates the human kingdom of life on earth, from the animal kingdom of life on earth. Human beings are a seperate and distinct kingdom of life on earth. Human consciousness is the apex of the evolution of life on earth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Neuroplasticity and mirror neurons, etc., are evidence that we all influence each other. Being consciously aware of this learning/teaching facet of human nature, and developing it in ways and means that benefit all people everywhere, is the solution, the antidote, for any individual or group developing it for selfish and oppressive purposes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Religion is spiritual. Baha'u'llah has already founded the Kingdom of God on earth and in heaven. It is here, now. It is growing, thriving and spreading throughout human civilization, influencing human nature and causing the human race to come together into one universal and divine civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The human race is coming together. Help make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite. Love and respect each other.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2673746588048366016?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2673746588048366016/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/holistic-healing-and-teaching-project.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2673746588048366016'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2673746588048366016'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/holistic-healing-and-teaching-project.html' title='A Holistic Healing and Teaching Project'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3782730929443423562</id><published>2010-05-15T21:50:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T13:16:24.062-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Patriotism</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I am a Patriot. Of my family, and my old home town of Deaver Wyoming, population 102. I'm even a patriot of Wyoming, even though I'm ashamed of the people of Wyoming for having such a provincial culture. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I like cosmopolitan civilization. I like the 21st century. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The pioneers had a magnificent adventure for sure, but this is the 21st century, and I'd rather ride in a comfortable car and live in a modern house, than ride in a horse drawn wagon and live in a log cabin. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm a patriot of Denver and the Denver Broncos, although I'm thinking of moving my loyalty to Seattle. Seattle has the one thing Denver doesn't have, the ocean. Of course, Denver has the best weather in the world. I'm not sure how I'll like all that rain I've been hearing about.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm a Nascar fan. Can an environmentalist be a Nascar fan? I think so. How about an environmentalist who likes Halliburton and nuclear energy? Thats me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The USA is my favorite nation. The USA has done more to advance the cause of human rights than any other nation or people on earth. We still stand for equal opportunity, free enterprise and justice for all people everywhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm a patriotic citizen of the United Nations. These civilizations are clashing because they are coming together. We, the people of earth, are one global federation of nations, one universal common wealth. Unity in diversity, not uniformity, is our objective.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm patriotic about Narcotics Anonymous. My highest aspiration is to be a Baha'i. To serve Baha'u'llah from now on, forever.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3782730929443423562?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3782730929443423562/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/patriotism.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3782730929443423562'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3782730929443423562'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/patriotism.html' title='Patriotism'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5502576914325305501</id><published>2010-05-14T21:04:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2010-05-14T21:16:38.263-06:00</updated><title type='text'>My Holistic Healing and Teaching Project</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been working on converting the stories on holistic human being . com into an ebook.

Recently, I've been reading Scott Rosenburg's book, &lt;em&gt;say everything&lt;/em&gt;, about blogging. I thought it might be a good idea to see if I can get this blog going again. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm just going to start writing and let the results be what they are. If I ever get to be able to afford to build a Site Build It website, like I want to, I'll switch to that format as soon as I can. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I first read about SBI back in the 1990s, when it was brand new. I paid $17 to read Make Your Site Sell. We can read that for free now. I've always thought SBI would be the best way to learn how to build profitable websites. Both the writing and the website design are important aspects of developing a profitable online store, and I figure SBI is the best way to learn how to do that right from the start. Then if I want to learn Adobe Creative Suite and build some fancier websites, that can be a next right thing to do. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;But first, I need to make the site profitable, then I can work on making the site pretty, which is certainly something I want to do. Website design is an art. Its fun and interesting. Perhaps I can use the Adobe Create Suite software in the SBI format, I don't know yet, because I have not been able to gather the resources I need to work on an SBI website.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I suffer from long periods of unemployment, poverty and homelessness. Rather than take medication so that I will be content to work on someone else's business, I decided I would create my own business. Knowing what I know about myself, this seems like the ideal solution for my recovery. I intend to write about my holistic healing and teaching project, world unity and the peace and prosperity of the entire human race, individually and collectively. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'll keep writing this blog from now on, for awhile, and let the results be what they are.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7362450497412264590?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7362450497412264590/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/ive-been-doing-lot-of-research-and.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7362450497412264590'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7362450497412264590'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2010/05/ive-been-doing-lot-of-research-and.html' title='Restart Blogging'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-7525003601138079448</id><published>2009-12-31T17:24:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-31T17:47:26.603-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy New Year</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2009 has been a great year. Even though I've been homeless most of the year, I got &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;www.holistichumanbeing.com&lt;/a&gt; written. I didn't make any money with it either. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've gone through it again, editing it one last time. I like the stories. I'm wondering, how I can get people to read it. It's like my first 21st century book. The stories are a synergistic combination of stories, that tells one good story about humans being holistic. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There's more repetition than I would like. I edited as much of that out as I could, without changing the story. I deleted quite a few stories. And besides, repetition is a good learning technique.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been thinking about writing the stories into an ebook format and offering it that way. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Another idea is that I may take all the advertising off the site and just keep it as a free presentation of some of my philisophical ideas. Perhaps I will add links to other non-commercial sites.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not sure if I will keep adding to it. I definitely want to do something else, preferably build an SBI! website. I need to get some maintenance work done on my computer and then I should be able to get the commercial site started up fairly quickly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;That should go faster than the Google sites website since I have some experience building websites. It will still probably be a pretty slow process. I'm looking forward to building my first SBI! website during 2010.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;2010 is going to be a great year. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Happy new year!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7525003601138079448?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7525003601138079448/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/happy-new-year.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7525003601138079448'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7525003601138079448'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/happy-new-year.html' title='Happy New Year'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2451935412005619777</id><published>2009-12-25T02:24:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-25T03:02:36.365-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Merry Christmas</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;It's 2:30am Christmas morning. Thank God Jesus saved us! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Remember to be spiritual, choose to let spiritual principles be your most primal motivation, at all times and under all circumstances. Always do what is best for everyone, not just yourself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be excellent, whether you work for someone else's business or for your own business. Practice interdependence, not competition. Be a good example, help create a safe, clean and decent society. Be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The only way we are going to solve the social and economic problems afflicting our civilization is if we the people start practicing our religion at work. I suppose this spiritual civilization is naturally evolving as a grass roots movement. The sooner we get all CEOs and other business executives to practice spirituality in their professional career the better.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Same goes for doctors, lawyers and teachers. We need to be teaching moral and spiritual principles in school. Our civil laws need to be in harmony with our religious principles. Our healers need to have a holistic understanding of human nature and health and healing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Work is an act of worship of the one true God. And I'm not suggesting that we should be discussing religion at work. What I am suggesting is that we ought to be practicing the principles revealed in the Religion of God in our careers, in all of our financial and economic activity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We need all of our large and small scale free enterprise to serve all of our people, not a few people at the expense of everyone else.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practice unity in diversity. The human race is coming together. Earth is only one country and all mankind are its citizens. All the world's resources belong to all the world's people. Love and respect each other and our natural habitat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Almighty God is the Source of everyone and everything. Thank God, life on earth is an adventure. We all come from God and we all return to God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2451935412005619777?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2451935412005619777/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/merry-christmas.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2451935412005619777'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2451935412005619777'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/merry-christmas.html' title='Merry Christmas'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-7580103771898740075</id><published>2009-12-21T22:16:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-21T23:11:16.435-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Journaling on Blogger</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I actually had someone tell me I should keep on writing a few days ago. Ever since then, I've been having serious doubts about being a professional writer. That's really odd. The first time someone says I should do this, I start wondering if it's a good idea. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;When I was writing and everyone seemed to be shouting hysterically that I can't do that, that I should just get a job and do what I'm told to do, I had no doubt I should be a writer. This is something I've always wanted to do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I wonder if it has anything to do with that person in Fort Collins tell me I was going to hell for believing in Baha'u'llah. You know, making me doubt myself. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been reading some of the blogs I have book marked on my laptop and I can tell I am way off the success pattern. I'm still writing my journal and thinking it's a blog. I suppose I am still practice writing. One of the things they all say to do is to write a lot. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Most of them write their stories off line and then post them after they're finished. I've been writing my stories directly onto this Blogger dashboard. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I was putting some final touches onto &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/&lt;/a&gt; and then I got distracted before I finished. I want to finish that and get ready to work on something else next year. I want to build a &lt;a href="http://buildit.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;Site Build It&lt;/a&gt; website, but mostly I just want to be happy, healthy and wealthy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I remember setting goals at the beginning of this process. I had listed that I would be earning $2000/month from this business. Well, I did sell one educational product off line a few months ago. I earned $6 on a $46 sale. That has been the grand total of my cash flow during 2009. I sure am thankful for that one sale. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I have never really been good at sales. I've read a lot of books about sales, Zig Ziglar. Brian Tracy, and others. I've struggled to actually sell anything. I tried counter sales and I can do that. I get along really well with people. I just don't like the hours, you know, having to work a regular scheduled job. I also do not like selling some of the products. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've worked in convenience stores that I quit because everything for sale in the store was harmful to human nature. The food was mostly various processed sugar and salt flavored bread. Alcohol, pornography, cigarettes and sugar water. I want to sell stuff that is good for people. I want to help people, not sell them poison.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Another time I was an Independent Associate in Pre Paid Legal Services, Inc. I really liked that product because I object to people turning our justice system into a lottery, where everyone is suing everyone for rediculously frivolous reasons. We desperately need justice in our society right now. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;If there is one thing that describes what is wrong with our society today it is a lack of justice. Compassion is the most important companion of justice. Be fair. Oppression is the absence of justice. Honesty, integrity and loving kindness are essential attributes of both personal and social welfare. W&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;e need to practice these principles in our personal and our professional lives. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Merry Christmas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7580103771898740075?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7580103771898740075/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/journaling-on-blogger.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7580103771898740075'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7580103771898740075'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/journaling-on-blogger.html' title='Journaling on Blogger'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-4857404649113202444</id><published>2009-12-19T20:41:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-19T21:15:05.460-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Finishing up earthling09</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I got a job washing dishes up here in Cheyenne and moved into the basement apartment of one of my friends. So, I should be able to get started working on an SBI! website during 2010. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I'm putting the finishing touches on holistichumanbeing.com. Editing the stories one last time and getting ready to do something else next year. So Earthling09 is my first website. My free practice website that I wrote and developed during 2009. Now, I'll produce a commercial website using Site Build It. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I have been wanting to go through that whole SBI! learning process for years. Now, I finally have myself set up to do that. I'm not sure what I'll do with this blog. SBI! has blogging software built into it. I'll make that decision when I get started. I may keep this blog going, or if SBI! has a better blog software, then I'll start a new one. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've focused all my writing and website development effort on one website and one blog. I've been thinking I might split it up into several keyword focused, theme based content, websites. Develop a little cluster of websites, each one about a different topic, instead of a diverse assortment of topics on one website.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;One thing is for sure. I want my first SBI! website to earn income, so it will probably be focused on a commercial topic. A home office resource center. We'll see. I'm just going to go through the SBI! process of selecting a keyword focused topic and see what I can produce. I'm fairly confident that I will be very successful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;So stay tuned. And learn how to earn a comfortable living working in your own home office. I've been studying this for years. I can help other people get started. I can't do it for you. I can just help you get started. Point you toward some really good products and services that will help you live healthy and wealthy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I like doing research and writing, so I may continue to publish my stories and earn income by offering affiliate programs related to the theme of my stories. I tried to do that with the Google sites website, but it's virtually invisible. That's the most important advantage of the SBI! website. It's designed to attract attention and sell whatever products and services you're offering. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Merry Christmas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4857404649113202444?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4857404649113202444/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/i-got-job-washing-dishes-up-here-in.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4857404649113202444'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4857404649113202444'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/12/i-got-job-washing-dishes-up-here-in.html' title='Finishing up earthling09'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5356333791142418963</id><published>2009-12-04T15:20:00.003-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-04T15:58:54.438-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Create Prosperity</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been encouraging the people around me to create their own jobs. They look at me like I'm from outer space. They're waiting for someone else to solve their problem.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I agree, that getting a job is one option for creating prosperity. It's not the only option. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been thinking about writing a journal to save for history. Something about living on the streets during this economic recession of 2008 and 9. There are way more poor people today, than there are jobs. America is in a tough spot. After WWII, the whole world economic infrastructure was leveled, except for the USA. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;For the next 60 years America has been the premier superpower. We've been number one in everything for so long, that we think that is just the natural order of things. That it's a right, an entitlement. Many of the people I talk to, seem to think that the USA is inherently superior to other nations. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Now, all those jobs are gone. That gigantic wave of industrial prosperity is spent. We're just another large nation, in our world wide federation of nations. We still have considerable military power, and 50+ world class universities. But economically, we're like Argentina during the 1970s. We owe more than we can possibly repay.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The manufacturing jobs that the previous generation of Americans used to create prosperity for themselves and for the world, are gone forever. We use machines to do a lot of that work, and the jobs we do have are spread out all over the world. Thats a good thing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The prosperity is spreading out from North America, to first Europe and Japan, and now throughout human civilization. The whole world economy is booming. Our business and political leaders are consulting, setting an agenda for creating a sustainable global economy, with free and fair trade, for creating prosperity for all the people, of this next generation of human civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The Internet is the best way to tap into the new world order. And I am not talking about some sinister, antichristian dictator. I'm talking about our generation of human civilization. How are we going to earn a living in this age of globalization. I say, learn how to use the Internet. Buy, sell, trade, influence each other. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We need the American people to participate in our global consultations, not stand off with an attitude of superiority, thinking we are better than everyone else. We need to promulgate the American philosophy into our new global civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;So get your SBI! website and start selling your ideas, art, crafts, products and services. Learn how to earn a living working on your computer, in your own home office. You'll have to come up with your own version of an online store. Study, read, write, take pictures and video. Tell your stories.

You know, poor people helping poor people earn a living. They scoff at me and say we just need to get a job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree that getting a job is one way to work our way out of poverty. There are many more poor people than there are jobs. I'm trying to apply the ideas and education I've attained through Nightingale/Conant and the many books and other sources of financial and self improvement multimedia that I've been studying, to solve the problem of poverty, both personally and socially.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its Monday and I'm working on the project.  I'll continue to talk to people about doing this, as I move around and work on developing www.holistichumanbeing.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm also open to working at a job, but I'm not spending a lot of time looking for a job. I'm not very employable. I have no home, no teeth, no transportation, a bad reputation and bad credit. I'm working on creating a home office based business, supplying educational and other products and services to help people like me recover, and create prosperity for ourselves, our families and our universal common wealth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Help make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite.

I will be looking for a new place to stay for a while. I've been thinking that maybe I'll just wander from mission to mission and keep doing research about homelessness and writing about it on this blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's not what I want to do, but I don't seem to have much choice. The economy is not very prosperous right now. There are a lot of homeless people and not very many jobs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not very employable either. I have a terrible reputation at work and bad credit. I'm a very good worker for the short term, then I get bored and quit or get fired. I have a CDL, but I got into a car accident last year and got a ticket. Now, none of the trucking companies will hire me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm thankful that I've been able to work on this blog and &lt;a href="http://sites.google.com/site/earthling09/"&gt;www.holistichumanbeing.com&lt;/a&gt;. Google has supplied a great opportunity, a simple way for me to start doing what I've always wanted to do and have not been able to. I have no credentials and a bad reputation, so, I'll let my writing sell itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to change this grouchy attitude I have had for the last few months. I need to get out of the habit of writing about myself, and my plans. To get out of the habit of using my blog as a personal journal of my life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about you? What are you doing to live healthy and wealthy? Are you eating right? You're not using any drugs are you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One issue I've been experiencing and considering lately, is the stories people are watching and listening to. I'm staying in a mission and we all share the same entertainment space. Now, I usually read, but of course, I can not avoid hearing the TV. Every single night, I'm forced to listen to people screaming, fighting and killing each other for hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is not OK. I often read or listen to Christians consulting about why their message is not more popular. I see Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and all the other religions in our society, and our secular culture, all screaming past each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hollywood is selling a diabolically harmful story. We're forced to listen to advertisements selling drugs that increase sexual arousal, over and over again, every day. Not to mention the constant barrage of other medication being sold on TV every day. This morally retarded barbarian culture and materialistic hedonism run amok propaganda is drowning out the spirituality of the people of earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree with the Promise Keepers. I call all religious people, to unite and practice our religion in every aspect of our lives. We need to practice religion in our families, teach our children a reasonable standard of moral and spiritual behavior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to practice moral and spiritual principles in our professional activities. Free enterprise is not a license for aggressive self interest at the expense of everyone else. Prosperity is created by adding value to our common wealth, not taking away from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United Nations is our global consultation about governing our present human civilization. Human civilization is what ever we make it. Let's create a safe, clean and decent society, with unity in diversity, freedom, equality and justice for all people everywhere. Unite all the people, of every nation, race and religion, into one global federation of nations, one universal common wealth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4436528342351093856?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4436528342351093856/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/well-my-three-weeks-at-fort-collins.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4436528342351093856'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4436528342351093856'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/well-my-three-weeks-at-fort-collins.html' title='Spiritual Society'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-6077795247311386799</id><published>2009-11-22T12:48:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-22T13:24:26.926-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Personal Responsibility</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I'm thankful that I'm getting all this experience, working my way out of skid row by myself, and writing about it, to help us completely and permanently eliminate poverty and homelessness from human nature and civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would be even more thankful if someone would be interested enough to join this effort, to establish a network of people working together to help each other. I suppose there are already plenty of networks working on this and that I should join them. I have been investigating that option and will continue to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been consulting with the homeless people around me, trying to get them involved. On the one hand, most of them are not very interested in the Internet. They're also skeptical about trusting and working with someone who is also homeless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing I've noticed about most homeless people, is that they don't seem to care about anything. They watch the most depraved entertainment, eat the most useless and destructive food and act out in the most perverse and immoral behavior. And then complain about their circumstances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I mention that their poverty might be consequences of their own harmful behavior, they get mad, claiming that I'm interfering with their freedom. They scoff and blame the economy, the government or the rich people who they think control the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I start talking about how to make the world a better place. One guy says, there's nothing we can do about it, and Jesus will solve the problems when He comes. Many others just complain, about the conspiracies that are causing their problems,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; and beg for cigarettes and alcohol&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;. They don't want to hear anything about truth, reality, personal responsibility or solutions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been told I'm going to hell for believing in Baha'u'llah, every day for the last 2 weeks. I love Baha'u'llah. And thank God that I found out about Him, and that He is causing the human race to come together. I'm an American Baha'i.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-6077795247311386799?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/6077795247311386799/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/im-thankful-that-im-getting-all-this.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6077795247311386799'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6077795247311386799'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/im-thankful-that-im-getting-all-this.html' title='Personal Responsibility'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-4397494315849806155</id><published>2009-11-20T14:30:00.007-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-20T14:55:33.949-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Writing is Work</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;It's really weird that I can't get access to computers to work on my business. My family violently rejected me, ordering me to leave. The people at Oxford House refused to allow me to work on my website, even though I had a part time job. They insisted that I get another job. Now, the library will only allow me to work for one hour every day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't want food stamps. I don't want welfare. All I want is a chance to build the business I have described on www.holistichumanbeing.com . To write stories and sell websites, educational products and nutritional products. Contrary to popular opinion writing is work. It's the one thing I'm good at, that I like to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What kind of a diabolical world says that I can not do the one thing I want to do to earn a living. That I have to be a manual laborer, because I got my education in the library and book store instead of a school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm tired and alone. There is one person here willing to talk to me, and the only thing he is willing to talk about is that he believes I'm going to hell for believing in Baha'u'llah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My sins are pretty grievous and I probably deserve all these calamities. I just figured that, now that I have been clean for many years, I would focus on repairing my financial affairs first, and that would make it a lot easier to solve my other problems. I'll just keep writing and let the results be what they are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The stories on the website seem like pretty decent stories to me. Of course, I can and will get better. I'm really frustrated, because I believe I could write a lot better if I had a safe place to live and work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4397494315849806155?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4397494315849806155/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/its-really-weird-that-i-cant-get-access.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4397494315849806155'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4397494315849806155'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/its-really-weird-that-i-cant-get-access.html' title='Writing is Work'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-8117894799501328160</id><published>2009-11-17T12:40:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-17T12:49:22.844-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Business Development Ideas</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been editing holistichumanbeing.com.

It would use the Google business model in the sense of supplying information for free. It would be sustainable by offering advertising and affiliate programs, etc. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Addiction, poverty, sexual misconduct, all sorts of illness and crime are all temporary problems that can be treated and healed. Rehabilitation is possible for any human being. Recovery is good and healthy, for the individual, and for society. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm developing a cluster of websites delivering free information and knowledge that allows people to investigate reality and manage their own recovery. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not trying to eliminate doctors, they're vitally important in many instances. I'm just trying to give people the power to heal themselves, including the power to seek the help of doctors when they're needed. I'm just trying to set people free from the culture of dependence that our schools are teaching, our businesses are selling and our governments are enforcing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I live on the streets of the USA. I've investigated our medical establishment in order to find recovery for my own problems and discovered that they have an extremely secular and materialistic perspective of human nature. In my opinion, the American Counselors Association Code of Ethics is a corrupt political agenda, far removed from any sane moral and spiritual values.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;So, I am investigating ways and means that I can recover from the diverse assortment of problems I am struggling with, and working on developing ways and means of sharing that knowledge with other people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;One of my problems is poverty. I'm working on developing a cluster of websites that will deliver entertaining and educational content for free, and that will generate enough income to pay for itself and have enough left over to grow and to supply me with enough income to ... I just want to earn a reasonable standard of living, a reasonably comfortable quality of life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I admit that my writing is still pretty amateur. My perspective of reality is mostly abject poverty, violence and drug abuse. I've been in recovery for many years and still suffer from serious mental health problems and extreme poverty. I do not accept the premise that the solution is to submit to the medical establishment's culture of dependence, on doctors and the medications they are selling.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I like my writing style, and expect that it will improve with practice. I will learn how to build profitable websites by developing several Site Build It websites. I'll learn the keyword research, writing keyword focused content pages and search engine optimization techniques by doing the SBI! learning and website development process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Then, I'll start collecting a diverse assortment of resources and making them easily available to anyone who needs them. I've been studying the Internet. It's a global intelligent network. I'm working on designing the machine to work in harmony with human nature. I'm investigating how to tap into that global knowledge base, add value to it, and deliver a diverse assortment of options for people to select while they are managing their own personal recovery.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been working on this blog and the &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;www.holistichumanbeing.com&lt;/a&gt; website for about a year now. They're a holistic perspective of human nature, and of recovery and rehabilitation. They are still very primitive. I'm learning, searching, investigating. I'm seeking the truth. I'm striving to improve myself and help others. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-7342129088356772675?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/7342129088356772675/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/holistic-healing-system.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7342129088356772675'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/7342129088356772675'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/holistic-healing-system.html' title='Holistic Healing System'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-127613522730083461</id><published>2009-11-10T13:46:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-10T14:23:37.114-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Practicing Steadfastness in Our Careers</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;If you are like me and like to read and write, and are interested in earning income using the Internet in a way that is harmless and constructive, then read all the stories on &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;You don't have to read them all at once. In fact, get an SBI! website and start developing your own online store as soon as possible. Just keep reading the stories on holistichumanbeing.com. And sign up for this blog. Post comments. Help me get a conversation started here about developing SBI! websites and earning income online.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Stay focused on your business plan. Set realistic goals and work on accomplishing those goals, regardless of what else happens. Keep working, don't let anyone talk you out of working on your hopes and dreams for your own life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Keep writing, even if your writing seems to be unfocused, and even incoherent. Just keep on typing. Getting the words posted on your blog. Or use Goggle docs or Open office to keep writing. I like using my blog because it gets my writing published right away. Even though the stories are sometimes nonsensical, and it seems like no one is reading them anyway. Just keep writing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;You can always come back and edit stories, or even delete them. Just keep on practice writing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This story doesn't seem very interesting to me. That's alright, just keep writing. Get as many words written as possible. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm homeless. I live at the mission at Ft Collins. I can hardly stand it. I just keep studying, reading and writing. I have a reasonable business plan that is in harmony with the present world economy and my personality. I am just so discouraged about my financial circumstances that I feel almost paralyzed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I was weak in the first place. I struggled and worked my way out of skid row, and then people who I expected to help me, went way out of their way to oppose my business plan, setting me back to skid row. With no transportation and no teeth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I tried to get a job washing dishes in Cheyenne. The first job was part time, which I liked because it allowed me time to work on my business plan. The people who I lived with at the time said it was unacceptable because I was behind on my rent. The people at that place brow beat me and persecuted me for working on my business and spending money on my business instead of giving everything I had to them. Finally they voted me out and I moved into the mission.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I did get another dishwashing job. It only lasted for a couple of weeks. Many of the other workers were so morally retarded that the everyday conversation was this extremely perverted prison culture. I got out of there as soon as I realized what was going on. More than one person asked me to perform homosexual relations with them during that job. And the perverted sexual banter was a constant every day aspect of the culture at that business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;After that the people at the group home I lived in voted me out and I moved into the mission. I've gotten quite a bit of work done on holistichumanbeing.com by working at the library.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Well, I'm not sure why I wrote all this. I doubt if it will help me sell anything. It is getting to be a pretty long post and there is a one hour limit on this library computer. I'm just going to post it and keep writing every chance I get. I expect that 2010 will be a lot more financially productive for me. Sooner or later, I get the resources to start developing a cluster of SBI! websites that attract attention and sell websites, educational and nutritional products and other stuff that will fit into my holistic healing and teaching theme, my home office resource center theme and my writing theme.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-127613522730083461?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/127613522730083461/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/if-you-are-like-me-and-like-to-read-and.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/127613522730083461'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/127613522730083461'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/if-you-are-like-me-and-like-to-read-and.html' title='Practicing Steadfastness in Our Careers'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-2806237042003424766</id><published>2009-11-09T14:32:00.008-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-12T14:06:07.177-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Survival</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've been reading about designing technology to work in harmony with human nature. It makes me think about designing the Internet to work in harmony with human nature. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been studying at the Colorado State University library. Now, I'm at the Ft Collins library so I only have 20 minute to write my blog posts. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm planning on producing 3 websites, preferably SBI! websites, during 2010. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;home office resource center&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;holistic healing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;writing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I figure I'll start with writing because that will be easy to produce content for, while I learn the SBI! software. Then, I'll work on the home office resource center. By then I should have some success selling stuff on the writing website. I'll be working on getting NLP credentials which will help me in the process of developing my holistic healing and teaching system.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Homelessness is an extremely &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;harsh condition. In a certain sense I feel like I am focusing on this fairly intense intellectual activity to escape from the harsh reality of being homeless. I'm just going to keep doing what I am doing for awhile. I am staying in touch with family and friends and hopefully a breakthrough will happen soon.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I don't need much. I'm not asking for welfare. More like a loan, or investment, perhaps even a mentor. Someone that will work with me and help me improve my work.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;My 20 minutes is running out. I'll keep posting every once in a while. See what I can produce in these circumstances.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-2806237042003424766?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/2806237042003424766/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/ive-been-reading-about-designing.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2806237042003424766'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/2806237042003424766'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/11/ive-been-reading-about-designing.html' title='Survival'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3770472516354351756</id><published>2009-10-22T15:32:00.014-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-23T10:59:19.181-06:00</updated><title type='text'>No Bullies Allowed</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I remember reading that Kung Fu was developed by an Indian munk, meditating at a monastery in China. He noticed the munks could not get home with the groceries, because when they were confronted by highway robbers, they gave the groceries away without a fight. So the munk from India taught the other munks how to get home with the groceries, without harming the highway robbers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I don't think we should be using Kung Fu to fight against bullies, at least not physically. I just think we need to have effective ways and means of responding to bullies, that helps rather than harms the bully, and in a way that does not allow the bullying to continue to dominate the group.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've noticed the bully uses pandering and intimidation to attain important allies. Everyone wants to be important. Bullies insist on being more important than everyone else, and at the expense of everyone else.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been standing up for myself. I'm trying to encourage and uplift all the people in the group. It is difficult to get the group to be happy and optimistic when one individual is insisting that he is more important than everyone else, and that everyone should submit to his commands. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;It is extremely insulting. Oppression is the absence of justice. I'm astonished that anyone would have such a blatantly obnoxious ego. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not really sure how I will respond. I would just as soon get out of the group, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to do that.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Just remember that every human being is precious. Be helpful, and not harmful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This is a really good theme for my holistic healing and teaching system. I'll work on developing stategies for responding to bullies effectively, and post my results here on my Earthling blogspot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm thinking on my blog, rather than thinking out loud, because I have the time and I want to continue to develop my writing skill and improve my holistic healing and teaching system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not sure I've really said much of anything in this post. I'm just starting another stream of thought about an important aspect of human nature that can be improved through education and training.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3770472516354351756?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3770472516354351756/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/no-bullies-allowed.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3770472516354351756'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3770472516354351756'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/no-bullies-allowed.html' title='No Bullies Allowed'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-676088107238427097</id><published>2009-10-20T13:47:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-20T14:53:34.981-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Insecurity of Homelessness</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I went to a homelessness and low income housing consultation a couple of months ago. The conversation was all about the state and the efforts of nongovernmental, nonprofit organizations to deliver low income housing for poor people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There were no business people there, and no one talked about helping poor people earn more income and manage it more effectively. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I have suffered homelessness for large segments of my life. I have investigated myself and my environment to find out why and what can I do about it. A few things I do not want to do about it is: take medication so I can get a job and do what I am told to do. I do not want welfare and I do not want social workers taking responsiblity for managing my life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I learned pretty early on that working a job is not going to work for me. I am a really good worker for the short term, and then I get bored or feel trapped, and quit or get fired. I figure I need to be some kind of entrepreneur, so that I can set my own schedule and I won't get fired for taking a few unscheduled days off. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I like to read and write, and this Google Sites and Blogger programs are allowing me to develop a website and blog, inspite of my dire financial circumstances. So, I'm trying to figure out how to deliver educational products to homeless and other poor people, in a format that they are interested in. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I do not want to limit my market niche to poor people, it's just one of the multiple streams of education and entertainment in my holistic healing and teaching system. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I want to deliver high quality educational products, such as Nightingale/Conant or Rich Dad, to poor people as a solution for poverty. Teach people about business law, accounting, the science of achievement and stuff like that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The other point I have been thinking about is this awareness, that homeless people suffer from a chronic condition of insecurity. Its like our fight/flight/freeze system is always on. Our alarm is blaring, emergency, crisis. This condition is very exhausting. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Since the normal response to homelessness is to get a job, often doing physical labor, usually at a great advantage for employers, we are working against the natural laws of human nature. We are expecting people who are already weak from their physical insecurity, to do the most physically demanding work. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We supply food, clothing and even housing, but we fail to provide the education and opportunities for people who fail, for what ever reason, to recover and to work their way out of poverty. We have created a culture of dependence, that rewards aggressive self interest, and discriminates against peace, harmony and cooperation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I suppose this system helps business people. Supplying weak employees, who are forced to work on someone else's business and are in no position to argue about the terms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The really interesting thing about this, is that poor people are as responsible for this situation as rich people are. They sit around, watching mind numbing and positively harmful entertainment, and complain about rich people being so greedy and oppressive. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Homelessness is a conspiracy to many homeless people I've talked to. It's always someone else's fault, while they are eating poisonous food, that tastes good and has no nutritional value, such as processed food and sugar water.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Poor people have been the source of some of the most aggressive opposition to me working on this business. I was kicked out of the Oxford House, a communal living arrangement, for working on my website. I was struggling to find a decent job. I was working, just not steadily; and I was paying rent, although I was behind, like just about everyone else at the house.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I want to get this posted as part of my notes, for my research about homelessness and completely and permanently eliminating homelessness, for myself and everyone else.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The two themes of this post are the primal insecurity that homeless people experience, and my effort to deliver first class education about the nature of free enterprise, as the only real solution to homelessness and poverty.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm going to keep on working on this. I am looking for a job. It's very difficult to work on this website in these circumstances. I can write these stories all right, even though this seems like a depressing theme to me. I can't really work on developing the website though, because of the insecurity of my situation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I love the human race. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Life on earth is an adventure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-676088107238427097?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/676088107238427097/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/insecurity-of-homelessness.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/676088107238427097'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/676088107238427097'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/insecurity-of-homelessness.html' title='Insecurity of Homelessness'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-6678328809904563518</id><published>2009-10-15T13:24:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-15T13:39:16.793-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Being a Peaceful Warrior</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I love the entire human race, individually and collectively. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This is not always easy.

You do not need to be an alcoholic for drinking alcohol to be harmful. It is always harmful, unless used in a legitimate medical therapy. It is an anticeptic, it kills germs, neurons and liver cells. It is used as high octane fuel for dragsters and spaceships.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Marijuana is the most harmful drug. THC mimics the neurotransmitter Anandimide. Most of the Anandamide receptors are in the brain stem and the reproductive system. It is an analgesic, however, users feel the pain, they just don't care. People rarely die as a result of using marijuana, so they live long. The influence of so many people whose caring faculties are so degraded is harmful to the individuals who use it, the people around them and human civilization as a whole.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Eat good healthy whole food, not processed food. Whole grain bread and other whole grain products is probably the most important factor for improving the health of the current generation of human nature. We need to eat the nutrients in the grain, not eliminate them so the food will last longer on the store shelves. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Grain is a most fundamental aspect of human diet. Human nature evolved along with the evolution of the tropical forest into grassland. When hominids had to walk through the tall grass, instead of jumping from tree to tree, we attained the capacity to walk upright. We have been adapting to life in the grasslands ever since then. The agricultural revolution is just another wave of natural selection of human nature adapting to life on the savanna, the steppe or the plains.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Pay attention to what you do for education and entertainment. Language is possibly the most fundamental characteristic seperating the human Kingdom of life from the animal Kingdom of life. Watch and listen to positive, uplifting information and entertainment, not the sexual perversity, drug abuse and violence so popular these days. The constant barrage of hostility and violence is harming human nature and civilization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Set yourself free from the culture of dependence that our schools are teaching, big business is selling and big government is enforcing. Mind your own business, not someone else's. Get yourself a gmail account and start blogging. Download a free copy of &lt;a href="http://myss.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;Make Your Site Sell&lt;/a&gt; and read it. Build yourself a free practice website using Google Sites while you're studying the &lt;a href="http://www.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;SBI!&lt;/a&gt; integrated ecommerce system. Turn your ideas into business, create your online store.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human population is approaching 7 billion. Big business is an essential aspect of our economy, but it can not possibly supply the amount and diversity of opportunities we need for a healthy and wealthy, universal common wealth. We have developed computers and the Internet, which supplies an electronic infrastructure for an infinite variety of equal opportunity and free enterprise. It's a global bazaar of information and communications, a giant cyber shopping mall, in which we can all buy, sell and trade with each other. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Micro scale businesses are the next generation of business at the speed of light. All you need is a computer with access to the Internet. You may even be able to do it with out the computer, you just need access to the Internet. I have done a lot of the work on this blog and &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/&lt;/a&gt; using the computer at the library. In fact, I am working on a library computer right now. It's the cloud computing model of computer science coming online.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There's network marketing. In spite of the bad reputation that business model has, it is a good business model, if you have the desire, talent and ability to sell. You've got to have a good work ethic. The advantage of network marketing is you get to set your own schedule. The disadvantage is that you get to set your own schedule. No one is going to make sure you are working. You get paid for results, no results, no pay. It can be difficult to start, but if you are good at it, you can build a giant business for yourself and your family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Ebay is another good homeoffice based business model. Study, read, listen, investigate the truth for yourself. You may need a garage for this business. Learn how to buy, sell and trade artifacts from all over the world. I know people living in Cowley, Wyoming, population 350, nearest large city is Denver or Salt Lake City about 500 miles away, who buy pieces of art and stuff from as far away as China, and put it up for sale on their Ebay account.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;You can become a day trader, buying selling and trading stocks, bonds and commodities online. You get an account with Scottrade, Ameritrade, or some other online brokerage and start trading. You need to have a substancial amount of investment capital to start with. Practice due diligence and research individual investments as well as the investment business in general.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Real estate investing is another really good home office based business model. You can buy houses and rent them out for multiple streams of income. Or you can buy houses and fix them up and resell them for a profit. Apartment buildings and commercial property are other options for developing a real estate investment business. And as with any of these business models you will need to study and learn the business for yourself. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;And most importantly, make sure your motives are spiritual. Everyone is required to work, to produce something valuable for themselves, their families and for our universal common wealth. Real prosperity comes from adding value to our common wealth, not taking value away from it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Help make the world a better place, be kind, friendly and polite. Be the solution, not a problem. Practice compassion, harmlessness and harmony, with each other and our natural habitat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace and prosperity be with you all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-399521605503848139?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/399521605503848139/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/dont-use-any-substances-which-cause.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/399521605503848139'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/399521605503848139'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/dont-use-any-substances-which-cause.html' title='Holistic Human Being'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5189740628998915670</id><published>2009-10-08T10:46:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-08T13:02:47.207-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Determination to Work My Way Out of Poverty</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;So, I'm trying to make the best out of my circumstances. I am homeless, living at the mission. I work in the kitchen for my room and board, and I'm working with an attitude of using the food as a healing therapy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Naturopathic healing is one of my favorite healing techniques. Mainly because food is such an integral aspect of living healthy. We are what we eat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;All the food at the mission is donated, so we don't get to choose what we get. We do get a lot of high quality food and I try to emphasize the best quality food first. You know, putting out the whole grain bread first, and stuff like that. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I also am trying to foster a calm, peaceful culture in the kitchen. Put some good vibrations into the food. I practice good customer service, being as helpful as I can be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;When I am not working in the kitchen, I read a lot, and am available for conversation, and I try to keep the conversation healthy. Words are the most powerful healing therapy. Promoting a healthy and wealthy attitude at all times and under all circumstances is just something I always do, or at least try to do. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;My website development advisors say I shouldn't be writing about my own agenda, and I'm sure they're right. I am just trying to journal about my situation. I'm working on creating something valuable. I want people to read this and benefit from it, whether they are homeless or not. Perhaps my stories will help professional social workers understand and find solutions for homelessness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I am also working on this with the goal of earning a reasonable standard of living. I would like to sell the Nightingale/Conant educational products and evitamins as well as the SBI! websites. The educational products, vitamins and websites would be my main products for sale. The SBI! website will also be the electronic platform for my online store.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I can't really get started without that key piece of my business infrastructure. The affiliate programs are free, but the website itself costs about $300 a year. That is a very reasonable price for a comprehensive, integrated ecommerce system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I also want to get to the NeuroLinguistic Programing school up in Friday Harbor, Washington. This is another healing technigue that uses words to improve human nature, individually and collectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I do not want to take drugs to make myself employable. I want to create my own free enterprise that allows me to earn a reasonable standard of living, even with my eccentric personality. And I want to help other homeless people do that as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I figure that with the economy in the dire straits it is in, my little ecommerce project is right on time. I can teach laid off factory workers how to create their own free enterprise. And earn a commission in the process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;So, I am just going to keep writing. I get discouraged. Most of the time, whenever anyone finds out what I am doing, they react with discouraging words. And I get discouraged by the lack of response on the website. That is why I am so anxious to get started building an SBI! website, because SBI! websites are designed to attract attention.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This is another journalistic blog entry, discribing my business plan and my effort to accomplish my goals. I guess I am writing to myself as much as anyone else, and allowing anyone to read the stories and comment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Peace be with you all&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5189740628998915670?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5189740628998915670/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-im-trying-to-make-best-out-of-my.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5189740628998915670'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5189740628998915670'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-im-trying-to-make-best-out-of-my.html' title='Determination to Work My Way Out of Poverty'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-6522830993098031469</id><published>2009-10-02T16:48:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-02T17:42:54.322-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Unhappy Times at the Homeless Shelter</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;So, I'm wandering the streets of Cheyenne, Wyoming. I live in the mission, working in the kitchen for my room and board. I had come to Cheyenne planning to wash dishes so I would have a little money to invest in this writing business. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The first dishwashing job I got here wasn't too bad. After awhile, the manager left me to do all the dishes by myself. I earned just enough income from that job to pay rent, with nothing left over for anything else. At least I had a job, and had my rent covered.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The people I lived with at the Oxford House didn't think that was enough, and had a big consultation and forced me to sign a contract, that I would look for another job.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Eventually, I quit that job and got another job. The people who worked at that well known chain restaurant were morally retarded barbarians. Extremely perverted sexual harrassment continued all day, every day. Hostility and intimidation was the normal atmosphere at that business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Now, I live and work at the mission, for my room and board. I've been working on &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/&lt;/a&gt; every chance I get. My work is grinding to a halt. I am feeling depressed. I really like how the website is turning out. I'm just disappointed about working on this free practice website and not really getting any response.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I really wish I could arrange a normal place to live and work, and be able to start building an SBI! website as soon as possible. I have an excellent assortment of products and services I want to sell. They are affiliate programs for a variety of companies that fit in with the theme of my website.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;It's kind of difficult to do this working on the computer at the library. I'm a little nervous about setting up electronic banking systems here. And one of them wants to charge $35 dollars for electronic deposit. I would just as soon get the check in the mail for that price. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I owe another company, that I want to work with some money, which I do not have. So I can't set that program up. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The point is that I have a really excellent plan, I just do not have the resources to get it started up.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've been thinking about depending on God. I admit that I have been very unreliable. I have caused a lot of trouble. In a sense I have earned my poverty. I am just a little worried that God seems to be preventing me from accomplishing my goals. There is always some weird circumstance that defeats my plan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Like I said, I've caused most of my problems. But, I am not responsible for the bullies showing up in every situation I get myself set up in. People who almost hysterically object to me trying to earn a living any way other than getting a job. Now, there is nothing wrong with working at a job, but after careful consideration of my history, my moral inventories and several psychological assessments, I've determined that getting a job is not the best way for me to earn a living.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I like network marketing and Internet commerce, because they do not require me to work continuously. I have to work, and I am a good worker, I just am not good a doing the same thing every day. I am not good at manual labor, actually I am very good at it, I just refuse to do it any more. I feel my rage building when I think about this. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I've earned my education and an opportunity to use my education to improve myself and help others. I do not like working on someone else's business, being told what to do and how to do it. I want to work on my own business, I want to serve customers and treat people honorably, not have to endure the bullies and the insane perversity so common at work these days.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I came to write a webpage about folk medicine today. I sat down at the computer and just couldn't get it written. I'm so sad and angry about my circumstances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The people at the mission are not interested in my holistic healing and teaching ideas. They just want to play video games and watch TV. They seem to think that getting a job is the only option for earning a living, whether they are capable of working at a job or not. If they can't do a job, they get on welfare of some kind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I believe everyone should work, no matter how handicapped they are. I am trying to start a business here, that teaches people how to do that. That teaches people there are other options, that we can create ways to earn a living, that work in harmony with our personality, our culture and our natural habitat. Not just force everyone to adapt to the one size fits all, military industrial complex.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Anyway, this post is getting pretty long, so I'm going to let it go at that. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I love the human race, individually and collectively. The United Nations is the greatest civilization that has every existed on earth. The human race is coming together. Our world economy is booming, there is more prosperity more widespread than ever before in history.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Help make the world a better place; be kind, friendly and polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-6522830993098031469?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/6522830993098031469/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-im-wandering-streets-of-cheyenne.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6522830993098031469'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6522830993098031469'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-im-wandering-streets-of-cheyenne.html' title='Unhappy Times at the Homeless Shelter'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3363605297767505508</id><published>2009-09-15T13:45:00.020-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-08T11:35:08.776-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Living Healthy and Wealthy</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Well, I've managed to arrange a place to stay for a couple more months. I'm working in the kitchen at the mission, for room and board. I still have to look for a regular paying job. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I wouldn't mind having a job, in fact I would be pretty happy to have one. I'm just not very enthusiatic about looking for a job because of the way people treat each other at work. I'm working on developing a holistic healing and teaching system, instead of spending all my time looking for a job.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Set yourself free from the culture of dependence that our schools are teaching, that big business is selling and big government is enforcing by creating and maintaining a high performance home office using &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Site Sell, Inc., &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;as an integrated ecommerce platform for your online store.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;There are almost 7 billion inhabitants on earth right now. Most of us are not going to work at jobs, we are going to buy, sell and trade an infinite variety of ideas, knowledge, skill, arts, crafts, products and services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;At every job I have had for the last several years I've had to endure a constant barrage of conversation about sexual misconduct. I worked in the oil field. The conversation with other employees has often been about insanely perverted sexual deviency. I was an over the road truck driver for a year. I was astonished about the sexual perversity openly expressed during the conversation on the CB radio.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The restaurant industry is just as bad.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We should not discriminate against people for cultural diversity, but this insanely perverted sexual promiscuity that is so common in our society is not OK. We the people of America, and the world, do not have to tolerate it. We are taking positive action to influence the people of earth to create a reasonably safe, clean and decent society.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm working on a plan to attain legitimate credentials so that I can create a business that specializes in healing sexual misconduct and the harm that causes, as well as other problems people face, such as poverty, homelessness and drug abuse, etc. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I study Neuro-Linguistic Programming, neuroplasticity, naturopathic medicine, Ayur Vedic medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine and other healing therapies and am in the process of developing my own holistic healing and teaching system. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Naturopathic healing techniques are one of the most primal healing systems. We are what we eat. The processed food we have been eating for the last several generations is poisonous. Food companies take the nutrients out of the food to make it last longer on store shelves. Then they add chemicals to make the food taste good and last even longer on store shelves. You know, those artificial preservatives? Oh, they're preservatives all right. They kill the life, so they can preserve the bulk of the food that has no nutritional value, its like eating dead food; in fact, it is eating dead food. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Live food is loaded with vitamins, minerals, nutrients, bacteria. It's alive. It doesn't last very long once it is harvested. All living organisms return to the earth when they die. That is a perfectly natural aspect of life. Interrupting that process is not natural or healthy. We need to eat those nutrients, not eliminate them so the food will last longer on store shelves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Another vitally important aspect of living healthy and wealthy is to not use any substance that deranges the mind. You do not need to be an alcoholic for drinking alcohol to be harmful. Alcohol is an anticeptic, it can be used as a medicine because it kills germs. It also kills brain cells and liver cells. It's also used as high octane fuel for dragsters and space ships. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Tobacco is an extremely poisonous substance that should be avoided. Marijuana is the most harmful drug. It causes the synapses in the central nervous system to spread apart, contributing to the disorganized thinking and poor memory common to marijuana users. THC mimics the neurotransmitter anandamide. Most of the anandamide receptors are in the brain stem and the reproductive system. Marijuana users feel pain, they just don't care about it. Imagine the influence that millions of marijuana users, whose ability to care is so degraded, are having in our human civilization. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Pay attention to what you do for fun and relaxation. All the sexual immorality, drug abuse and violence that people are participating in and watching for entertainment is extremely harmful. Oh sure, we are resilient, we can withstand a lot of abuse, but eventually that constant barrage of harmful stimuli will overwhelm the human organism. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;It's already happening, school massacres, sexual misconduct of all kinds and other forms of human perversity are becoming more and more common. Eventually, our whole civilization will collapse, just like every other civilization that has gone through this very same process of moral decay.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The most important thing we can do to improve ourselves and help others is to seek God. Love God with all our heart, mind and soul; and love each other just like we love ourselves. Practice the religion of God in what ever form you understand it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I believe that Baha'u'llah is the Manifestation of God for today. He has already founded a universal and divine civilization that is arising on this planet, at the same time the old national civilizations are crumbling, because of the amorality of their citizens and the rampant corruption of their social institutions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We the people are responsible and accountable for our contribution to this mystical transformation of human nature and civilization. I'm confident that the surge of science and technological progress, and the social and economic development, we have been experiencing for the last 165 years or so, is a direct result of the revelation of Baha'u'llah. The universal common wealth that He founded during the 19th century is booming. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;It is a much more cooperative, service oriented culture; instead of the competitive self interest characterizing our modern capitalist democracy. It is democratic, but the elected representatives are accountable to God and the entire human race, not just the people who elected them. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Investigate the &lt;a href="http://www.bahai.com/"&gt;Baha'i Faith&lt;/a&gt; for yourself. &lt;a href="http://www.bahai.com/"&gt;Baha'u'llah&lt;/a&gt; Himself, is the real Teacher of the Baha'i Faith. I'm just a servant, serving Baha'u'llah to the best of my ability, which is not always very excellently. I just love Baha'u'llah, and thank God that He has revealed Himself to me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Ya Baha'u'l Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3363605297767505508?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3363605297767505508/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/09/well-i-have-managed-to-arrange-place-to.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3363605297767505508'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3363605297767505508'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/09/well-i-have-managed-to-arrange-place-to.html' title='Living Healthy and Wealthy'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5448810897016874586</id><published>2009-09-04T14:50:00.015-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-07T14:11:45.988-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Mind Your Own Business</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:180%;color:#990000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;Build Your Own Online Store&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;using&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt; the best integrated ecommerce system on the planet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://buildit.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;Site Build It&lt;/a&gt; will teach you how to turn your ideas and interests into a profitable business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Take advantage of the keyword research, the search engine optimization and submission, etc., that are built into the SBI! website development process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The Internet is only a little over 20 years old.

I read a book about Africa, that was really depressing, but then had a fairly happy ending. I wanted to read some Africa stories. I've already read a lot of stories about Asian, European and American civilizations. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Africans are having a hard time learning how to govern themselves. Between them getting tired of the gangs of barbarians terrorizing them, and outside civilization wanting to trade with them, they are finally starting to get a glimmer of social and economic development, that is benefiting all the African people. An African middle class is finally starting to emerge from the anarchy left behind by the retreating European imperialism.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Which reminds me. Most of the books I've been reading lately, have this hostile attitude about the USA. Some of them, like Jeffrey Sachs' Common Wealth, have an optimistic attitude about our global civilization, but treat the USA like we are bullies, causing all the world's problems. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This is not really ok. It's hypocritical, for one thing. You know, world unity in diversity, except for those conservative Americans. Come on! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This most recent wave of conservative American philosophy, is a major positive impulse in the evolution of human civilization. President Bush promoted democracy and human rights for eight years, and backed it up with economic and military pressure. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;American economic policy has helped put our global common wealth in financial position, to be able to vastly improve the social and economic development of our universal civilization. American political philosophy is far superior to the ideas of the Arab terrorists who picked a fight with us. We did not start the war on terror, we are winning it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The United Nations is the greatest civilization that has ever existed on this planet. These ancient and more recent civilizations are converging into one universal federation of nations. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;They are clashing because they are coming together. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The UN, WTO, World Bank, IMF, WHO, UNESCO and many other government and non-governmental organizations, business organizations and even religions, are meeting, consulting, teaching and learning from each other. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;America's conservative influence in this process, of the globalization of our civilization, is constructive. It is expensive. It may even bankrupt our nation financially, but America's conservative influence is helping to insure that the worldwide civilization that is arising right now, will be one that respects justice, equality and freedom, democracy and human rights, and does not allow the aggressive few bullies to rape, rob and oppress the vast majority of earthlings, who just want to live in harmony with each other and our natural habitat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I love the human race.

I'm not sure if it is because my writing style is not attractive or if the substance of my stories is the problem. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I suspect it is the substance of the stories. A few people have mentioned that my ideas seem kind of utopian, which they are, very utopian. I also think the style is still pretty amateurish, and that people are afraid that I can not earn a living by writing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I can solve the amateur writing style problem, by practicing. As far as people rejecting my ideas? I suppose, I have never intended to impose my ideas on anyone. I'm just a little frustrated about some of the people around me, seem to be going out of their way to interfere with my writing business. Maybe I'm just paranoid. I hope so.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I mean, I hope I am just imagining that people are interfering with my business. I live in the mission now. I'm homeless. I'm focusing my writing on the subject of healing homelessness. I am not very well organized. I wander around in a daze, and read and write as much as I can.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I worked a couple of days at Labor Ready. I was so sore after that, I didn't go back. It isn't worth it. I am still looking for a job, but I don't have a lot of ambition, I'm not very enthusiastic about it. For one thing, I don't really want a job, I want to work on my business. For another thing, my history at work is not very encouraging, and it's getting harder and harder to start a new job.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This blog and &lt;a href="http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/"&gt;http://www.holistichumanbeing.com/&lt;/a&gt; are coming alive. They are like organic systems growing on the cloud of online information. I just write a little bit every chance I get. I admit that I am a long way from writing professional quality stories. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Its almost like a journal. I just keep writing stories. Its practice writing, to learn how to write. It is also developing my ideas. I am kind of interested in this Internet based writing format. It makes the mechanics of writing pretty simple. I just write stories directly onto the website. Then, I can edit and improve them later. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm looking foward to the time when I can look back at the stories I'm writing now, and read them and marvel at the progress I've made. I don't think these stories are worthless. I like my style and I'm aware that I don't follow the rules all the time. That's part of my style. I have dropped out of school three different times, after all. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;My style is outside of the mainstream. I am working on making that an asset. Not because there is anything wrong with mainstream literature, but because I have a new and unique perspective on things.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;In fact, one of the ideas I've been thinking about, is that I need to get over my resentment toward the educational and medical establishment, and start writing about ways and means that I can work in harmony with them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm reading books about writing again. I'll keep working and I am confident that I will figure out how to earn a living being a writer, a holistic healer and teacher, and an online entrepreneur.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-9196536611990464815?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/9196536611990464815/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/08/writing-from-streets.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/9196536611990464815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/9196536611990464815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/08/writing-from-streets.html' title='Writing from the Streets'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3151218124984441982</id><published>2009-08-12T12:14:00.009-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-07T14:20:34.525-06:00</updated><title type='text'>I Love the Human Race</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've noticed that my blog posts seem kind of preachy. Well, the reason is that I am fairly alarmed by the entertainment and information flowing around our civilization. A lot of it is extremely offensive.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;That is not OK. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human civilization is whatever we human beings make it. We can create a safe, clean and decent society or not. Right now, it doesn't really feel very safe, clean or decent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;It seems like we are making some progress on the clean aspect of our civilization. That's a start. We can clean up our economic systems. We can engineer our industry to work in harmony with our natural habitat, rather than destroying it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Our entertainment and educational establishments are aggressively selling this insanely violent and spiritually dead secular culture. Thankfully, the vast majority of citizens are religious and are becoming more and more active in efforts to influence our civilization to become more civil.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'll just keep posting my philosophy, ideas, and stories, and let the results be what they are.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I love the human race.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3151218124984441982?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3151218124984441982/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/08/ive-noticed-that-my-blog-posts-seem.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3151218124984441982'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3151218124984441982'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/08/ive-noticed-that-my-blog-posts-seem.html' title='I Love the Human Race'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-869255245676237564</id><published>2009-08-11T15:52:00.012-06:00</published><updated>2009-10-07T14:27:33.595-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Existence</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;All human beings are equal, free and responsible for our own thoughts, words and deeds.

It is causing a lot of the problems in our society. Many of the character defects that make people think they are superior to the inferior people, are caused by that attitude of superiority. There is no such thing as an inferior or superior human being. There are only precious human beings. There is no they, only we human beings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Practice harmony with each other and our natural habitat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The entire earth and all of its inhabitants are one common wealth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;God is my strength, I will continue to have this attitude, no matter how mean and oppressive the people around me behave. Oppression is the absence of justice. Practice justice in all of your relationships. Be fair. Practice "everyone wins" business ethics, do not agree to any business transaction in which anyone loses. Buy sell and trade good stuff.

With all that money that we pay united auto workers, they should have the resources to figure it out. As far as I can tell, the engineering is already done. It is just a matter of the banking and the corporate leadership and all that. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We can recharge our cars by plugging them into our houses. The car batteries will improve rapidly once we start mass producing them. And make sure you design the environmental quality into the cars and the manufacturing and disposal processes right from the start. You know, minimal environmental impact for the complete life cycle of the cars and trucks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We'll use wind, solar and tidal forces to generate the electricity. A 21st century smart grid to distribute it. Computerized, superconductor transmission and distribution system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Another project the united auto workers and other former industrial employees can do to earn a living is to develop a diverse assortment of online stores. We are building a giant shopping mall on the Internet. Get back to the mom and pop economy, the real free enterprise. Build homesteads on the Internet, like we did with farmland during the 19th century.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Which reminds me that we need to get back to family farming. I realize there are some advantages to the economy of scale of industrial agribusiness. The cost of destroying agriculture is like pulling the food out of the ground by its roots. Sooner or later it is going to rot. Agriculture is the roots of the world economy. Industrial scale agribusiness is destroying those roots by violently seperating the people from the earth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We need our government, our schools and our businesses to work in harmony with our families. Family is the most fundamental attribute of human nature. Our society should revolve around our families. If a family is weak then our society should strengthen it. Our businesses need to stop tearing our families apart by selling poisonous substances and immoral activities. And society does have a right to defend itself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Freedom is lawful, not lawless. Free enterprise is not a license for harmful and destructive business practices. Practice harmlessness, be helpful. Live in harmony with each other and our natural habitat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Be responsible for all your thoughts words and deeds. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5889900489602079322?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5889900489602079322/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/our-united-auto-workers-ought-to-be.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5889900489602079322'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5889900489602079322'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/our-united-auto-workers-ought-to-be.html' title='Free Enterprise'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-6027955415605724224</id><published>2009-07-16T09:06:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-08-12T12:36:31.646-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Pure clean and chaste, thoughts words and deeds</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Practice pure clean and chaste, thoughts words and deeds, at all times and in all circumstances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Human consciousness is the apex of the evolution of life on earth. We are what we eat.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Eating whole foods is helpful to human health. Using tobacco, alcohol and other drugs degrades human consciousness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Paying attention to our entertainment is also important. Language is a fundamental attribute of human nature and the entertainment we participate in has an influence in the growth of our consciousness. Watching hours of sexual immorality, drug abuse and violence is harmful to human nature.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;There are a few good movies and shows that are not obsessed with sex drugs and violence, but not many. And even if we do find a decent show we have to listen to stupid advertisements about the WWE or viagra. It is insane. The WWE is a criminal enterprise. Assault is a crime and advocating criminal activity is also a crime. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;And this constant barrage of advertisements for drugs that enable sexual arousal are insulting. I agree that it is a good thing to have a medication to solve a legitimate medical problem, but sexual promiscuity is harmful, and this constant barrage of advertisement is promoting what should be private behavior in an inapropriately public forum. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We need to clean up our society. Physically, mentally and spiritually. Freedom is the personal responsibility we have for all of our thoughts words and deeds, not a license to sell harmful ideas or advocate harmful activities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Help create a safe clean and decent society, be kind friendly and polite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-6027955415605724224?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/6027955415605724224/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/pure-clean-and-chaste-thoughts-words.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6027955415605724224'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/6027955415605724224'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/pure-clean-and-chaste-thoughts-words.html' title='Pure clean and chaste, thoughts words and deeds'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-3224936882175954754</id><published>2009-07-15T11:22:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2009-07-15T11:53:30.032-06:00</updated><title type='text'>America the Beautiful</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;We need a new anti littering campaign in America, and all over the world for that matter. I can't imagine why anyone would throw a piece of paper, let alone a piece of plastic, on the ground. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We are all responsible for cleaning up the mess we are making in our natural habitat. Personally we should all be ashamed that our world is drowning in an ocean of trash. It takes very little effort to properly dispose of trash. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We should not be generating so much trash in the first place. Our military industrial complex should be engineered to minimize waste and clean up any accidental messes immediately. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Part of the problem is that the environmentalists think it is a crime to make a mess. I agree that we need to clean up our industrial processes, but industry is honorable, not criminal. We must stop treating our businesses like criminals. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Our businesses need to stop generating so much trash and clean up the messes they do make. Clean technology and clean consciousness must be built into our industrial processes right from the start. In other words, our industrial processes should be designed to generate as little pollution as possible in the first place, and then clean up any pollution they do generate, immediately.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;This is a moral issue. It should be a principle in every human conscience. We should practice it in our own personal lives, in our homes and families, and in our professional lives. It should be taught in schools all over the earth. It should be taught and practiced in a sensible and practical, not fanatical, way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Just stop throwing trash on the ground. Put it in the garbage can. Keep it in a sack or something until you find a garbage can. Just do not throw trash out of your car window or anywhere else, other than a trash recepticle of some kind. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Help create a safe, clean and decent society, be kind, friendly and radiant. Love and respect each other. Improve human civilization by improving yourself. We are all one family. Earth is one country. Human civilization is one common wealth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Deliver more than you promise. Make sure everyone wins in all your acitivities. There are plenty of resources for all human beings to live in cooperative harmony with each other and our natural habitat. We can not afford to allow a few aggressive people to horde the world's resources and dominate humanity. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;We are all in this together. Human civilization is whatever we make it. Let's make the next generation of human civilization a more perfect union.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-3224936882175954754?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/3224936882175954754/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/america-beautiful.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3224936882175954754'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/3224936882175954754'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/america-beautiful.html' title='America the Beautiful'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-4937733187145699266</id><published>2009-07-14T08:59:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2009-07-14T09:28:30.233-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Rehabilitation</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I figure that prisons should be rehabilitation centers. Inmates would be forbidden to watch commercial TV. Entertainment would be OK, but it would be good clean entertainment, not the sexual immorality, drug abuse and violence so prevelent on commercial TV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prisoners would also have a menu of cognitive therapy options available to choose from for their rehabilitation. Vocational rehabilitation and other educational opportunities will also be available.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prisoner selection and progress in such programs will be monitored and considered in their reentry into society process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think Wyoming would be a great place to build prisons. Good jobs for Wyoming and placing them out in the relatively empty places in Wyoming would keep them away from society. I just think prisons and the whole rehabilitation industry would be good business for Wyoming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reforming Hollywood and other entertainment industry activities is another project we can work on to improve human nature and civilization. I am astonished that people think that murder and rape, and all kinds of human perversity is entertaining.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess the scientists who work in Hollywood have discovered how to push certain buttons in human nature and now they just keep pushing them, just like a pigeon will keep pushing the cocaine button in an experiment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just because we can do something doesn't mean we should do it. Make sure everyone wins in all your business activities. Deliver more than you promise. Trade good stuff for good stuff. Never sell poison for money, whether its physically, mentally or spiritually poisonous. Much of the entertainment available today is mentally and spiritually poisonous. And when people act out the fantasies they are watching, it becomes physically harmful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are all responsible for this. Society is whatever we make it. We can make a peaceful and prosperous society, or we can make this mean oppressive society that Hollywood is selling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I encourage everyone to help make the world a better place, be kind friendly and polite. Practice peace and prosperity in your own personal and professional lives. Practice unity in diversity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and respect each other. We are not seeking uniformity. The diversity inherent in human nature is a strength of human nature. We do need a common set of moral and spiritual principles that we can all agree to and practice in order to live in harmony with each other and our&lt;br /&gt;natural habitat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-4937733187145699266?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/4937733187145699266/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/i-figure-that-prisons-should-be.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4937733187145699266'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/4937733187145699266'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/i-figure-that-prisons-should-be.html' title='Rehabilitation'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5256756791860773714</id><published>2009-07-13T09:49:00.005-06:00</published><updated>2009-07-13T11:29:18.573-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Practice Writing</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;One of the strategies often mentioned in writing about being a successful writer, is to write every day. Consistency is one of the more important aspects of writing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I have been pretty busy working on paying my bills lately. I've been distracted. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;My last job ended recently and I have been trying to figure out how to get my online holistic healing and teaching business started. I either have the money, or the time. I have not been able to get both the time and the money, to work on this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Now, I realize that the writing and blogging teachers say we should not write about ourselves on our blog. I figure that I need to write at least 500 words a day and this blog is the best forum for that. The writing will probably not be the best. I have been out of practice and I am going to just write what ever comes to my mind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;As far as I can tell, not many people read this anyway. So I am just going to go ahead and start writing and see where it leads. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I'm not sure how to count words. It looks like there are about 16 words in each one of these full lines. I guess I need about 35 full lines to add up to 500 words. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I think this will work out OK. I like the ideas in my head and once I get into the flow of writing I think this will evolve into an excellent blog. As far as attracting readers, perhaps this blog will first attract new writiers like me, struggling to get started.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;You know that saying about your family and friends resisting your effort to be an entrepreneur. I sure have found that to be true. I've been working on this business since about Thanksgiving of 2008 and the people around me seem like they are jumping up and down, waving their arms and screaming and yelling, you can't do that, just get a job and do what you are told. Some of them do that and then claim they are trying to help me get started.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;But then, some people are being helpful. I guess like anything else, people are not perfectly good or bad, they are a combination of good and bad. I know I feel like that in my own self and I can see that in the people around me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;That is an important fact about people, we are a combination of good and bad traits, never perfectly good or bad. And I mean that in an objective and a subjective sense. Whether or not some one helps me get my business started is a purely subjective sense from my own perspective. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Theft, murder or rape are objectively harmful, which is evil. Even a thief, murderer or rapist has good qualities. How about the person who saves a young womans life out of purely good motives, and then murders another person because he doesn't like him. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Life is precious. Every human being is precious. There is no they, only we human beings. The human race is coming together. We are all one family. Earth is one country and all humankind are its citizens. Human civilization is only one common wealth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5256756791860773714?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5256756791860773714/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/practice-writing.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5256756791860773714'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5256756791860773714'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/07/practice-writing.html' title='Practice Writing'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-7627443043724790352</id><published>2009-06-18T00:33:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-06-18T01:05:02.089-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Life on earth is an adventure</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Urban and rural living are both fun. Each with advantages and disadvantages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am seeking a spiritual solution for my economic problem, and striving for a reasonable standard of living. I want to live in harmony with all of human kind and our natural habitat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thankfully, I live in the USA, which is a relatively wealthy nation. It is a vast and complex civilization with a diverse assortment of options for social and economic development.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can travel the world without leaving our homes if we want to. With hundreds of TV channels and the Internet, remote viewing of our natural reality is easy. Of course, visiting places in person is better than remote viewing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some places in our universe can only be reached by remote viewing, at least for now. We've sent out a swarm of robotic probes to explore our solar system, our galaxy and our universe. We use our computer graphics technology, along with our video technology to create breathtaking vistas of our natural habitat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just about all the knowledge and information ever produced by human kind are easily accessible on a global network of communication and data bases. We have universal education and business at the speed of light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if Google will be able to knock Bill Gates and Microsoft off the king of the hill. Seems like Google is selling the next generation of cyberbusiness. I'm not counting Microsoft out though. Perhaps they remember when they knocked IBM off the apex of the information technology industry. IBM and AT&amp;amp;T are still around, but Microsoft and Google are the superpowers of high technology today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And check out the Chinese, the Persians and India. These are gigantic, ancient civilizations that are reawakening in the midst of the global federation of nations that is evolving all over the earth right now.

They surely are familiar with the technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They will need our help. They will be in shock. You know, the whole PTSD issue. I will be thinking about you while I write the stories for this site. I am very grateful for our military. No second guessing here. I spend a lot of time defending our political leaders and our military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I try not to write about that too much here, because I want this site to attract a diverse assortment of people. I want all sides to consult with each other and work to improve human nature and advance human civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Baha'i Faith says that I should not talk about the Baha'i Faith in the marketplace, and that I should avoid politics like the plague. I've been more successful about not writing about politics, at least national politics, than not writing about the Baha'i Faith.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been searching for the truth all of my life. I have a very holistic perception of life on earth. I believe that religion is the most central attribute of human nature. How can I not write about that in my holistic healing and teaching system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Politics is just another aspect of human nature and civilization. One thing is, I dislike the back biting and fault finding so common in politics. I agree with most politicians about some things, I disagree with all politicians about some things. I just want them to do a good job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I figure that when I finally do get a professional website started, I will focus on the high performance home office resource center theme, to start with. Get my financial system perfected and then I can work on getting some credentials and start developing the holistic healing and teaching system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love the human race. Life on earth is an adventure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm interested in working to make sure that everyone alive on earth has the opportunity for a reasonable standard of living. The quality of life is a personal responsibility, but we are all responsible for making sure everyone has a safe, clean and decent culture in which to grow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to finish the war on terror and heal our wounds. All of our wounds, the wounds of our military forces, the wounds of the Iraqis and the Afghanis. We need to consult on all levels of society and put an end to the misunderstanding that caused the war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We Americans need to restrain our business leaders, who have a reputation for destroying small weak nations, and our natural habitat, for selfish materialistic reasons. We also need to sell our ideas to the world. Our economy has been the most productive economy in the history of human civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We just need to do it in a scientific, spiritual and holistic way. And we need to learn from other nations. Our way is not the only right way to do things. China is a gigantic, ancient civilization that deserves our respect, not contempt or fear. Fear God, not people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Persia is another magnificent ancient civilization. And remember that Mesopotamia is probably the oldest civilization on earth. India is like one big city. Not very prosperous yet, but very spiritual. And growing fast. Europe has all those brand new factories we helped build after WWII. Their civilization is state of the art, for sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The USA is a great nation. The American people have done more to advance the cause of human rights than any other nation or people in history. We Americans are like the Phoenician traders, we like to trade and play with everyone and we carry civilization around with us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United Nations is the next generation of human civilization. This universal federation of nations is one of my favorite topics. It is young and dynamic and rapidly growing stronger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These ancient and more recent civilizations are clashing because they are coming together. Human civilization is one big common wealth. We're slowly, but surely, transforming our swords into plowshares.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and respect each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace be with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5838750687141187891?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5838750687141187891/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/05/iraq-and-afghanistan-veterans-are.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5838750687141187891'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5838750687141187891'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/05/iraq-and-afghanistan-veterans-are.html' title='We Are All One'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944074978668261085.post-5686340977439171255</id><published>2009-05-22T10:57:00.008-06:00</published><updated>2009-05-22T11:53:18.402-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Being a Home Office Entrepreneur</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Free enterprise is a facet of my holistic healing and teaching system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jobs are great. If you have one and feel comfortable doing that, then by all means be the best employee you can be. Be an intrapreneur. Continuously improve yourself through education, training and experience. Make yourself more valuable. Be a high performance customer servant, and remember that your employer and other employees are your customers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jobs are becoming rare these days. One stream of the Earthling09 theme, is to teach people how to be successful home office entrepreneurs. I suppose most of the home office entrepreneurs are already successful employees, and that is great. My objective is to help all people, regardless of material circumstances, develop profitable home office based businesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Home office entrepreneurs are networkers, not loners. We are a global network of millions of individuals and families, working in harmony with each other, small and large businesses, our natural habitat and our social and cultural context. We buy, sell and trade a diverse assortment of ideas, content, media, products and services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I recommend starting with a &lt;a href="http://affiliatemarketing.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;Site Sell&lt;/a&gt; integrated e-commerce system.  &lt;a href="http://elearning.sitesell.com/earthling09.html"&gt;SBI! elearning&lt;/a&gt;  is a 12 week electronic learning system, that will teach you how to select a profitable theme that you are interested in, and then develop that theme into a profitable online store.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you have a profitable website developed, you can expand that website, and/or you can develop additional websites. SBI! elearning will teach you how to turn your favorite hobbies into profit centers for your high performance home office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are other ways to earn income from home offices. You can buy, sell and trade real estate and rent it out. You can get an account with Scottrade or JDAmeritrade and learn how to trade on the stock market right in your own home office. You can develop an offline store with all sorts of arts and crafts and develop a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;profit center, trading on &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;e-bay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Writing, blogging and audio/video presentation can be used to create your own little education, entertainment and communication center. Please, keep it good, clean and healthy. We want the Internet to be a safe, clean and decent neighborhood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be kind, friendly and polite. I'm way pro global online shopping mall. Be considerate and help eliminate spam and other wasteful and destructive activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have fun and be careful. Practice a healthy balance of material and spiritual progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah'u'Abha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2944074978668261085-5686340977439171255?l=9earthling19.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/feeds/5686340977439171255/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/05/free-enterprise-is-integral-facet-of-my.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5686340977439171255'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2944074978668261085/posts/default/5686340977439171255'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://9earthling19.blogspot.com/2009/05/free-enterprise-is-integral-facet-of-my.html' title='Being a Home Office Entrepreneur'/><author><name>earthling</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00887550958770274858</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
