IF I RULED THE WORLD! EVERYDAY WOULD BE….(OR CLOSE TO IT!) PT.1
It’s hard for me to decide which one would come first! But! Here goes in no specific order!
Look into ways to conserve all our natural resources. Even if it means recycling used water but to have it processed and filtered better than it went out through the tap. Put a moratorium on fracking. As far as I am concerned! There is not enough through research on it. More alleged problems than it solves. To come up with a better National health care plan the current one.
Even though some if not most of us! Do not wake up to Industrial air pollution. It stilled needs to be right up there with the rest of them. Clearly! The key to this world! Is recycling all things! Ever since civilization began. It was there! In time we used it and did not bother to think nothing of it. Now! We have to do what we have to do. Or later down the road. It will become either a hot commodity to a point that it will be on a first come! First serve basis. Or the good old black market will have it but at a much bigger price and who knows what might be in the water? Or! Take what one has so that we can live on it too!
I just hope that! We do not see ourselves in a situation where we may have to live without what we got used to live with.
To filter public assistance! Yes! There are people who are in need of it! But! There are those who are always on the take of any if not every kind and type of assistance since it does not come out of their pocket. I was told by one person who worked a food pantry place for the low income. She said she could not give out what the Federal poverty level because she had found that when she did! They would come back under the income level. She got onto their game quick!
Wars! Sends chills up and down the spines of one and all! The question comes into mind: “How do you stop a poor man’s war?” Do what we are doing now? We will not see the end of groups like ISIS! There will be others. No doubt!
The eradication of “POLITICAL CORRECTNESS”! And replace it to bring back “COMMON SENSE”! LOOK IT UP! IT’S A WORD/PHRASE!
Somebody Has to Say It!
In this world! I do find from time to time a nugget of something that either we may take for granted! Or there are times when a thought goes/runs through our minds about something that we somehow believe is true but! Just not that sure about it!
In comes me! Now! I am in no way! Boating/bragging about me at all. It’s just that I would have to say that because of the Internet! I can go places see and do things as well as look up stuff! But as I said. I know from talking to people most of my life. Where we both were not all that sure about it.
I thin that the comments, views, opinions I make! Do give people something to think about and be informed as well. And! Is not it what we all looking for? Information and in a way! An entertaining thought along the way? Another way of looking and seeing things from another fellow space traveler?
Like! When the Government shutdown! Whoever the congressman was that had the idea (As you can see! I am not all that into politics!) My first thought was: “Whoever it is thought that this might be a great way to get a foot in the door of the political system!”. As far as that goes! Small minds! You know the rest!
I do think that since one is fair in their thoughts, comments, views, opinions! And yes! Have done their research into whatever! We can take “Political Correctness” Out of commission aka deep six it!
Because all it is really truly doing to us! Is making us petrified of saying what we think feel, believe in anything. And this should not be. This is not how our parents were raised and their parents and so on. And beside! The last time it reared it’s ugly head (The phrase!)! Was in a comic strip!
The phrase itself! Has the wrong definition! The modern day definition of political correctness is: “Conform and comply with what “I” want you to say and do!” But! To these same people who want others to do and be and say what they want us to! If!!! And if! Someone pulled the same “Trick” on them! The response would be: “HOW DARE YOU!” You see what I mean?
And because it! It restricts us from asking, let along knowing what it is that we need to know. Many times! I have taken the first step in asking questions. Only to be laughed at or embarrassed because! “They” themselves would not dare to ask. Do you want that causes? Mistakes mess ups, screw ups, and the hits just keep on coming!!! We learned that! In grade school and our classmates and even our friends! When they tell us stuff like that! Are they really our friends?
Though! I do not put any stock into the Internet and any websites there are! I have always been one to read one or even more websites and books about something or someone.
For example! I am in the process of reading about FDR and Abe Lincoln. Over the years there have been many books about them. And what I do find interesting is. What one does not talk about! Some other Author will.
Another! The original Tylenol scare! At that time I did subscribe to both time and Newsweek. And I found that what time did not cover! Newsweek did and to the same in reverse as well.
The best quote I ever heard was from Tony Brown of PBS’S Tony Brown’s Journal. And at the end of his program. He would give “Words of thought”. My personal favorite briefly: “It’s always best to get more than one side of a story!”
Enough said!
Hitting Your Kids is Legal in All 50 States
Hitting Your Kids is Legal in All 50 States.
Remember the days! When we did something wrong? And we know we did? And got punished for it?
In today’s society and world! The means and method of how to that come into play. For some of us, it was dads belt, paddle (As in school), And yes with some parents the switch. But! Those parents knew when to put the breaks on it! FDR said it best: “The United States Constitution has proved itself the most marvelously elastic compilation of rules of government ever written.”
Franklin D. Roosevelt

And yes! Even our current laws are that way! If you really read the article! Even the 50 states themselves. Are not sure. But something has to be done.
For some kids! When they were growing up! Perhaps their parents did not tell why they got hit by whatever means they deemed necessary. Was it “The punishment fit the crime?” Only the parents now.
It also could be because! When their parents were goring up! Whatever they got. Their kids got when they had them. Thus! The vicious cycle begins. But the problem of child abuse has been kept in hiding for so long. It was not until the 1980’s that it slowly came fourth and was being discussed.
Are our lawmakers really solving problems? Or dancing around them to make sure when election time comes. Their seat will remain warm for them?
MY FIRST TIME SMOKING
It was 1973!
My very first job at a printing plant in the shipping & receiving dept. It was not until about three months later It was a Saturday morning. My parents and I were at our favorite restaurant we went to in the mourning. And I decided since I did “Some” money on me (At that time I was making $65.52 a wk. after taxes! You don’t ever forget you how much money you made the at your first job!).Why not buy some cigars? At The time I did which cigars were the good stuff (The quality ones!). Or the cheapies (I learned fast about that one!).
I bought the ones with the plastic holders. Aromatic ones. Over time I got to a point that! I could not stand the aromatic ones., After I left work. And got home! I began smoking them. Then I went to the drugstore and bought another pack of cigars. Smoked them. And then another and then another then another so on!
In the afternoon! I took a nap. When I woke up! I had this nasty taste in my mouth. My mom looked at me and said: “You’ve been smoking!” She said with a smile on her face. She said: “I seen you buy the pack of cigars and I figured you are working, making money why not!”
All the kids in the neighborhood said: “You were smoking like a fish!”
It was at that point that I learned “Lighten up on the stogies!”
As time went on! I learned about cigars. Not to be a connoisseur of cigars! But which ones I did like and which ones I did not.
The ones that I did like were: A & C Grenadiers dark wrapper, Triplet flavored cigars the one I loved so much! Was the blueberry smell & flavor (Yes! I said flavor because when you picked up the pack! And smell the box you could smell the blueberry sent). They also had apple, cherry, natural as well.
As I got older! I shifted gears if you will. I went to smoking a tobacco pipe! Again I learned as I went along about the type and kinds of pipe tobacco there is.
Again! I tried aromatic blend it was all right but you know ( I found out that most people who were on the receiving end of smokers tobacco product(s), aromatic was the more accepted sent!). There was one that was good. A flavor called “French brandy”. Then I Became a lover of Borkum riff flavored tobacco products. They had cherry, rum, cognac, Champagne.
Now keep in mind! I am not! A real, true smoker in the fullest sense of the word.
I am on again! Off again smoker. Even for me! These e-cigarettes I am not “Head over heels about them”. For all anyone knows! This is a Alt. to get around the no smoking laws.
But as I have researched! Even the these have the nicotine as well.
There is a point in each & everyone’s life where we do have to consider our health Vs. fitting in because everyone else is doing it?

I am doing No. One Now!
And for people who do not like their job! It’s more than likely. They just do not want to go looking for another job. Or pursue something they would like to start a business. But! What they have to do to make a buck is what stops them dead in their tracks. For example! Sales! There is money to be made from it. But they do not want to hear ever that dreaded word “NO!” People have made their money in sales because they had a plan or a goal for themselves. And they did not let that word gets in their way!
Side note: When it comes to sales. Have a goal in mind. There is a reason for it! With a goal you have a direction of what it is that made you choose sales. Sales! Is taking what you already have! And make a buck out of it! AS for the word “NO”! Keep in mind! You may encounter people who may have had a bad day, time, doing whatever. Do not take it as the last word. Just come back a few days later and try again.
No. 6. Open your mind, heart, arms to new things and people. Not everyone is bad! As for our minds? We have to get past what is there before us to see what else is there.,
Let me take No. Seven a little farther! When you meet someone. Always! Like them first. And let them decide if they want to get to know you farther. If not. Move on there are others in the world.

25 Ways to Be a Better Person Today.
I would like to talk about some of these.
1. Say thank you and mean it! When people do or say something . Say “You’re welcome” It’s a compliment being given and acknowledged.
7. Set goals wisely. And reward yourself for making progress. When making goals! Setup mini goals for yourself that will lead to your main goal. Because as you accomplish each mini goal. The main goal will seen not as hard to achieve.
12. Be honest for 100& for the entire day. It’s easier than you think. For me its like this! With my luck! Why bother?,
24.,Create your own definition of financial freedom,and inject a dose of passion into your budget. Yes! Saving can be fun.
