READING IS FUNDAMENTAL! Current Book: The Classic Best Seller: MAGICAL CHILD authored by Joseph Chilton Pearce. Related fields: Parenting, Marketing, Health, Cooking, Finance & Economics, Architecture & Homes, Culture, Astronomy and books written by one of the most dynamic authors in our story.Learn to distinguish between claims and substantiated facts. Keep the facts as the truth, as goodness, into our way of doing all things. Base life on the eternal laws of nature, reality, past events, logic, and common sense. It is the human being's natural religion. Follow the experience of past events. We can see what does not work. Eternal struggle is the price of survival. The winners of such struggles are those who organize and work together; who have a plan, who practice teamwork. Want only the facts. We must measure everything from our own point of view, that is, from where we can see it and overstand it. Don't believe Investigate or don't accept. There is nothing that we can't find, but we must do research. Then and only then will we not be fooled by fools. Give us facts not beliefs Be intelligent to question and seek facts and avoid sensationalisms and fictions. Do not whimper, complain or indulge in self-pity, but instead face problems realistically, get to the root of the problems and determine to solve them. Don't be gullable and do not easily accept any statement, belief, assertion or assumption that to us is lacking in proof and/or is unreasonable in the light of our own experiences. Be problem solvers, achievers, and producers. Accept as fact that truth and facts are always and have always been the originator and creator of all success. To think is a gift don't misuse it today and don't under use it. Saying of Dr. Malachi Z. York.

Heroes:

Nuff & Maximum respect to Jah, my soul, my son and a few others. The older Gods put me on, on how to rock this, maintain 360 Lord and live peaceful and prosperous!
