Sex, As We Know It, Will Be A Thing Of The Past

Sex, As We Know It, Will Be A Thing Of The Past

Don't get alarmed, sex will be with us for a long, long time. I'm happy that everyone reading this blog will be long gone before Sex, As We Know It, Will Be A Thing Of The Past. 

Before Human Beings came on this earth, intercourse by manuals was needed to keep the species going. Evolution gave Humans a gift - an orgasm.  I'm not sure why we evolved that way, but I'm sure glad we did. However, early Man was the only Human getting an orgasm. Hit the woman over the head - uga-bugga and it was all over. 

Today, women expect a man to give them an orgasm. If they can't get a man to do it, they can do it to themselves. The idea of only having Sex to reproduce is a thing of the past unless you are so very religious that you're willing to give it up - UGH!!!!!

Today, women are in more control than they were when I was born (74 years ago). Unless a woman is a Sex addict, the more control women get the less Sex Man will get. You see, most men want Sex all the time (even I at 74). Women want it when they want it.

The women who want a child because of their desire to nurture, also don't want the pain of having a child. Believe me, if a man had to go through the pain of having a child there would be no people left. 

All of this has gotten me thinking about the far away future of Sex. In 1973 the Woody Allen movie Sleeper depicted a future where people no longer had Sex. If they wanted an orgasm, they would go into a machine call the Orgasmatron. Five minutes later they would come out of the Orgasmatron with a smile on their face.
An orgasm comes from the brain not the things down below. Those things are today's tools, but the actual orgasm comes from the brain. Therefore, I would not be surprised if twenty years from now some company makes an Orgasmatron like device for the masses. I know I would use it.

Today, we are making Human parts from DNA stem cells. We have already reproduced a sheep, called Holly, from DNA stem cells. How long will it be before we create a Human? Not just any Human, but a designer Human created for the person wanting a specific baby. 

It won't happen in our lifetime because political and religious leaders will stop it. However, I'm not so sure we can stop someone from a country that thinks it's a good idea. Even if it doesn't happen in our lifetime, when religion goes away and women take control, they will no longer want to go through the pain of childbirth and therefore, they will make it happen.

I for one, have always greatly enjoyed the entire process of making love. It would be a shame if love making went away, but when there is an Orgasmatron available and designer babies are available, who is to say:

HATE

HATE

Definition of Hate: "intense or passionate dislike" 
Synonyms: "loathe, detestation, abomination." 
Action: "revenge."

WOW, that's a lot of Hate and should not be confused with: "mad, angry, disappointed, or pissed off." Do I Hate cream spinach or do I just don't like it? Do I Hate someone or am I so angry at that person that I will never see them again? Do I Hate when someone says that I'm not good enough or does it just piss me off?

I have used the word "Hate" many times in my life. I'll bet you do the same. However, now that I understand the definition of "Hate" I may not use it ever again. It's such a negative and ugly word. It's such a destructive word. When I think about it, I really don't have an intense or passionate dislike of anybody or any thing.

I've always said that "Words Matter." Using that word now will make me feel dirty inside. Using that word doesn't make me a better person. Using that word doesn't serve me. I used to feel that having "Hate" for my EX wives because of how they hurt me, was a good thing. Now I realize that accepting who they were has giving me freedom. I never wanted revenge, I just wanted my freedom.

Let's take the word "Hate" out of our vocabulary. I'm not saying to replace it with love because that's not realistic. It's OK to not like something or someone, but holding on to that bone of "Hatred" will never make you a happier person.

HATE, WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

Actions For A Happy Life

Actions For A Happy Life

There is a book "The Three Prescriptions For Happiness" by Ken Keys Jr. that has had a big impact on my life and my happiness. The Three Prescriptions are:

1- Ask for what you want, but don't demand it

2- Accept what's happening for now

3- Love unconditionally even if you don't get what you want

Instead of explaining each one to you, I strongly suggest you read the book.

Over the years I have learned additional actions one could take to create a happy life:

* Love life. No matter how bad things get, find a way to love life. In my opinion, this is all the life we are going to get. Until someone shows up from the "after life" and tells me how much better that is, I'm going to love, love, love this life.

* Have a passion for something. Don't just "like" somethings, have a passion for at least one of those things. I have many passions in my life. I have a passion for football. I have a passion for my writing. I have a passion for helping people I mentor. 

* Love something with all your heart. I love my wife with all my heart. Before she died, I loved my dog Zita with all my heart. I have friends and family that I love with all my heart. I love for ME with all my heart. Having love in your heart is the best way to have a happy life.

* Put yourself in first position. My mother would say: "that's being selfish" I say: "I deserve to be in first position." I'm a good person. I'm an honest and truthful person. I always try my best to do the right thing. I deserve to be in first position. Sooo, when the wife asks me which steak do I want, I always tell her: "the best one."

* Don't be afraid to call bullshit. So many people are trying to tell you what to do. So many people are telling you how it is. When what they say doesn't feel right or is away from your moral compass - CALL BULLSHIT! 

* Always tell the truth (your truth). Oh, you say: "I don't want to hurt someone's feelings" - I'M CALLING BULLSHIT. If my wife just bought a dress and wants to know if I like it, I'm telling her the truth. I might say: "looks great." I might also say: "that dress makes you look like a bag lady." The truth (your truth) is the truth. The truth will set you free. You will get the utmost of respect if you are thought of as the person who always tells the truth (your truth).

 If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, make the above part of your life.

Racist

Racist

As you know my blogs are about happiness and how to achieve it. Two of my five books, "Happiness The Forgotten Ingredient and Happiness The Forgotten Ingredient Book 2" are all about Happiness. The problem is how can I write, today, about Happiness when The President Of The United States is a Racist. I'm not talking about just someone off the street, I'm talking about The President Of The United States.

One definition of Racism is hating anyone and everyone who is not like you. Trump has expanded that definition to include anyone and everyone who doesn't agree with HIM.

I guess you think this is going to a political blog about the Republican Party. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Republican tax cut has created the best job record in many, many years. Some would say that the rich got richer. That's true, but almost all Americans are better off today than they have been for a long time.

The Far Left would have you believe that taking from the rich and giving it to the poor is the right thing to do. Well guess what, that's not Democracy its Socialism. Socialism sounds good, but it just doesn't work. What happens in Socialism is instead of everyone sharing the wealth - everyone (except the Oligarchy) share the poverty. Look at the Socialist Republic Of Russia - didn't work. Look at some of the Latin America countries - doesn't work. In school, I had a political teacher say that: "Democracy is a flawed system, but it's better than all the other systems in the world."

Also, I agree with the Republican stance on China and other positions the Republican Party has taken. What I CAN NOT agree is on any kind of Racism. I'm not saying that The Republican Party is a Raciest Party, but they clearly stand behind their Racist Leader.

How can anyone stand behind the comments this President has made. When asked, today, if he is happy that the White Supremacist support him, he responded: "I am happy with everyone that supports me." Are you fucking kidding me? I thought at least Trump liked the Jews. Is he even aware that the White Supremacist HATE ALL JEWS!

In all my 74 years of listening to Presidents, I've never heard them be so blatant about their Racist views. That's not to say they weren't Racist. Nixon was a Racist and the Nixon Tapes proves as such, but even he didn't show his Racist views publicly. 

THIS HAS GOT TO STOP! The Republican Party has got to call him out. The American People, not just the few in political office, have to call him and all other Racists out. The American way is not a WHITE way - it's every color, sex, nationality and religious way. 

Please don't sit back and ignore this is happening. Talk to you friends, family and anyone else who will listen to you, that this is JUST FUCKING WRONG!!!!!

How Do You Rate Your Life

How Do You Rate Your Life

I was going to use a scale from 1 to 10, but that would leave out all the little things that encompass one's life. So, I'm using 0 to 100. I could give you a definition of each number, but it's not my decision on how you think about your life. Lastly, I find it more interesting to break your life into the segments of your life. However, the only thing that counts is right now.

Sooo, I'm going to give you mine and hopefully you'll take the time to think about your own life.

Childhood (up to 19) 85%. I was a very happy child. I had many, many friends. Al my friends liked me. I was the guy everybody wanted to hang out with. Even though we didn't have much money, I didn't feel a need to have more than I had. I only had one relationship with someone older that led to intercourse (once). With the few other girls I was with I found the kissing, feeling, rubbing and coming in my pants very thrilling.

The next 15 years were a mixed bag - I'll give it a 50%. I had new friends who I had great times with. I got married and had two kids. My career was doing fabulous. However, in my early thirties everything turned to shit. Divorce, stress from being a manager and not loving myself because of my insecurities in dealing with the outside world took away from a higher rating of my life.

From 36 to 62 years old was a 70%. Another divorce was the main cause of not giving a higher number. Again, however, I married to the best wife anybody could ask for and my work was very stressful at times, but I was good at what I did and respected by the people I worked for and the people who worked for me. The most important thing that changed my life to the positive was, with help, I understood myself and became the source of positive energy. My insecurities diminished greatly and I was more bullet proof from the outside world's negative energy. 

Today - 90%. The only reason I don't give it 100% is because I always feel there will be more good stuff to come. My wife, retirement, my friends, my creativity and my feeling of self-worth has made my current life the best of my life.

What About YOU

Good Times

Good Times

I was listening to a song by the 1977 group Chic and it put a smile on my face. There's so much bad shit going on in the world (including the United States) that I get discussed reading or listening to the news. This is the worst political era I can ever remember. 

Chic's song reminded me of the good old days and reminded me to always look to the bright side. 

Good times, these are the good times
Leave your cares behind, these are the good times
Good times, these are the good times
Our new state of mind, these are the good times
Happy days are here again
The time is right for makin' friends
Let's get together, how 'bout a quarter to ten
Come tomorrow, let's all do it again
Boys will be boys, better let them have their toys
Girls will be girls, cute pony tails and curls
Must put an end to this stress and strife
I think I want to live the sporting life
A rumor has it that it's getting late
Time marches on, just can't wait
The clock keeps turning, why hesitate
You silly fool, you can't change your fate
Let's cut the rug, little jive and jitterbug
We want the best, we won't settle for less
Don't be a drag, participate
Clams on the half shell and roller skates, roller skates
A rumor has it that it's getting late
Time marches on, just can't wait
The clock keeps turning, why hesitate
You silly fool, you can't change your fate
Let's cut the rug, little jive and jitterbug
We want the best, we won't settle for less
Don't be a drag, participate
Let's cut the rug, little jive and jitterbug
We want the best, we won't settle for less
We want the best, we won't settle for less
Let's cut the rug, little jive and jitterbug
Don't be a drag, participate
Clams on the half shell and roller skates, roller skates
We want the best, we won't settle for less
Don't be a drag, participate
Clams on the half shell and roller skates, roller skates
Good times, these are the good times
Leave your cares behind, these are the good times
Good times, these are the good times
Our new state of mind, these are the good times
