knowing a person is knowing what that person wants you to know.

I have lived many views of life, boy, girl, man, woman and each one of them has given me insight into many experiences. Today I watched 'The Secret' twice and will watch one more time before I go to bed for the night. I highly recommend it to everyone it will change the way you think, it has mine.

"Every thought of yours is a real thing -- A force." ~Prentice Mulford~ (1834 - 1891)

I have talked about this so many times before and I will continue to try to explain and share my thoughts. We all are unique individuals with unique life's experiences, no one person is the same as the next. We were raised in different demographics, value systems, educational institutions and social and economic environments that affected us uniquely as individuals. The one thing we all have in common is thought and we only control our thoughts. During childhood until leaving home we have been influenced by all of those factors in a unique way. Some may not have had a parent or parents, maybe one or both were there but did not, either by omission or commission, give us proper or incomplete guidance. The end result is who we have become today, it was our interpretation of those influences that set our mind to it's current thinking.

The movie 'The Secret' illustrates how all things have an energy that emanates all around us from others and ourselves as we interact. We are bound together in so many ways that it is impossible to act without an equal action occurring whether it result in a positive or negative. Albert Einstein's 'Theory of Relativity' opens up quantum physics to include the very cohesiveness and symbiotic relationship that energy plays in everything. In that same mode we, all of us, exist in the same cohesiveness and symbiotic relationship.

As for reason I chose the title of this blog, as we matured in life we made adjustments in our thinking. Make no mistake, these adjustments are positive or negative depending on how we were affected by our experiences. But these adjustments were our responsibility and we are accountable for what we reaped. Many things became hidden from others in preference to decisions we make to adapt ourselves to our current life. We only allow others to know what we want others to know.

Historically speaking for the most part we are a race of violence and suppressors of the masses and I wonder if we can ever break that most evil of intents, greed.

In my life I have served youth because youth is always our future and what we do now determines what they think and do in the future. That, in the most urgent of ways, puts each of us responsible and accountable for what we leave them. In our head long race to 'get' we leave a void for them to understand and that is that there is a law of thought. That law is called 'attraction'. We attract what we think about most.

"Thoughts are sending out that magnetic signal that is drawing the parallel back to you."

~ Charles Hannel~ (1866 - 1949) 'The master key system'
"The predominate thought or the mental attitude is the magnet, and the law is that like attracts like, consequently, the mental attitude will invariably attract such conditions as correspond to it's nature."

~Dr. Joe Vitale~ Metaphysician, Marketing specialist, and Author'
"You are a human transmission tower, and you are more powerful than any television tower created on earth. You are the most powerful transmission tower in the Universe. Your transmission creates your life and it creates the world. The frequency you transmit reaches beyond cities, beyond countries, beyond the world. I reverberates throughout the entire Universe. And you are transmitting that frequency with you thoughts!"

~ Charles Hannel~ (1866 - 1949) 'The master key system'
"The vibrations of mental forces are the finest and consequently the most powerful in existence."

If we evaluate 'history' it is plain to see if we intend our thoughts to mold and create the future, we have an important need to agree and understand just what that future should be.

~Bob Proctor~ 'Philosopher, Author, and Personal coach'
"The law of attraction is always working, whether you believe it or understand it or not."

~Lisa Nichols~ 'Author and Personal empowerment advocate'
"you are the designer of your destiny. You are the author. You write the story. The pen is in your hand, and the outcome is whatever you choose."

One last thing, opportunity is what you make of it, seize it or pass it by, a personal choice. And finally the words of one of the most successful and important figures in American history.

~Henry Ford~ (1863 - 1947)
"Whether you think you can or think you can't, either way you are right."

My recent visit to my case manager

have an appointment each week with my mental health case manager on Wednesdays. This is a service that is billed at $100/hr and had been covered by my Medicare and State Medicaid until now. My household "gross" income rose over the acceptable amount, so I'm on my own. First let's talk about 'the ability to pay' part, in a downturn of the economy my town has suffered heavy layoffs and manufacturing and retail closings leaving us with very few jobs available in proportion to the unemployed. As a result for the last year my household has swelled to 13 people which for the most part beyond food stamps left me and my wife paying all expenses. I won't elaborate here except to say we do not have 'the ability to pay' anymore than we are capable. My decision here is one of two things, continue with my case manager mounting debt that I will pay out of pocket or discontinue and save what money I can towards my HRT treatments and savings for SRS.

As far as the new 'Health Care Reform', for me it will not be useful. Not only will it not be available until 2014, in all likely hood it will not cover the only thing that remains important to me as I am in excellent health, my transition to womanhood.

The interesting part of my session began at the very beginning when she was praising the passage of the new bill in Congress. Over the next hour I posed her questions about the bill. Her answers were both amazing and troubling to me. She absolutely new 'nothing' about the bill or it's intents, underlying taxes and negative incentives for individuals and businesses alike. This I don't believe is an isolated event, but if a verbal questioning of the majority who support this change were to occur, the results would be every bit as frightening.

Ignorance of what your Government calls 'good for America' without acquiring knowledge of what it is being offered is like signing a blank check from your personal account. No one would do that, would they?

John Adams, 2nd Prestident of the United States

American History; John Adams,
our 2nd President's Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents of the United
States. 1989., was very concerned about State's power and authority over the Federal Government.

In his speech he was appealing to honorable men to keep the Federal Government or anything that might amend The Constitution to swing power to Federal Government and Limit State's Authority over the Executive branch.

John Adams gave us warnings and I wonder, in 113 years have we validated or violated what his warnigs were to this Republic.
