About the AuthorMichael Jeffrey has been many things, and hadhumble work beginnings, until finding his truepassion, late in life. He started off working on agarbage collecting crew, something now called in aPC manner Sanitation Engineer. Later, he workedvarious summer jobs doing maintenance andjanitorial work, whilst an undergrad student. Aftergetting his undergrad degree much later thanexpected, due to being a lousy student whomsuffered from a complete lack of vision as to what todo with the rest of his life, he was not accepted intoGrad school immediately following his attainment ofhis BS degree. So, he had to work, and becameinterested in field work, most notably a longexperience working as an engineer, a surveyorshelper (lousy one at that), a geologist, andenvironmental consultant. Yet, he never reallyfound his calling, until he went back to school for agrad degree and became a teacher. That has beenhis passion since his mid 30s, and continues to fuelhis desire to educate the world, with his preferencebeing working with K-12 kids, geosciences courses, orteachers prep courses. He has an avid hobby in

photography, and has taught for free with outreachprograms in 3 states at the K-12 level.His most important goal today, is to find his Mrs.S, those whom can meet his needs to be a first timewife, and start a family with her the kind he hassought since he was in college his second year, fromthe time he turned 18 on. A goal that has beenclose, but elusively un-met, especially once he turned

40, which has only proved the search for thefertility and college aged women he has soughtcompletely affirmed as his only goal left in life.The author believes in a FREE Economic system,unfettered by the limitations the artificial conceptof money forces humanity to deal with. Getting ridof money will free the human soul to pursue theirdreams, and work in jobs they have the passion for,no more will people work just for a paycheck, oftenat the detriment of the services provided. As such,this e-book, is offered FREE, and if anyone asks youto pay for it, do not do so, for he will give it to

anyone on earth whom wants to read for free ! Thisoffer is his way of walking the talk of a truly freemarket economy, unfettered by the concepts ofprofit, payroll, stocks, or credit/loans.

ForewardFar better to live a life of lovefor everyone on earththan to just love thosearound you in your immediate circle source meIf all you know and love is your immediate circle offriends, faith,co-workers, students, parents, rich, poor, and so on,you aremissing out on what God has given earth - the greatrichnessand diversity of the human species herefar betterto love andlearn from everyone, than to limit oneself to just thefew ideasaround them. No better way towards enlightenmentand thefulfillment of a truly global citizen than to relish allthe good thathumanity has to offerHumanity would be so much better offIf people would stop forcing their viewpoints onothersId rather live in a society and a culturethat teaches tolerance and openness to all ideas

Chapter 1I yearn for a placewhere no one understand what the word peacemeansbecause there has never been warfarewhere each human is valued for what they have tooffer, and there is nodiscrimination for any reason, periodwhere the values of pacifism, love, and sharing areembedded in everyonewhere the love of God existsWhere everyone is down with asking questions, andin fact asking questions isthe very fundamental function of societywhere everything is shared, the wealth, theresources, where the only profitthere is,is inside of our hearts and minds, and no one goeswithoutwhere diverse opinions and the greater global voicesare heard by all andappreciated for the works of beauty there truly are

where there is no such thing as borders, that theentire world is an open andfree system, with inalienable rights and freedomsfor everyonewhere learning is a life-long processwhere the need to explore is nourished and fertilizedwhere people are open enough to new ideas, andopenly discuss all issueswhere no one seeks control over others for their ownpersonal interestswhere energy and food demands are met throughsustainable, and renewablesources only, with goal of the lowest possibleimpact/footprintwhere people are free to love and make love withthose of their mutual choosingwhere people whom help others and do serviceoutreach and learning arevalued far more than those that only helpthemselves

Here in the next section, one will find some of myrandom thoughts on various thematic issues thatplague humanity, locally and globally. These aremy own personal opinions, my interpretations ofhow a world at peace should be. By no means, is theintent herein to do anything other than to stimulatedebate on the issues, as opposed to personal attackson individuals. I have no quarrels with individuals,I only have issues with the policies or actions peopleperform on the stage of life. Many of the posts focuson recurring themes of love lost and not found since,not having had my own kids, my own personalfailures and successes, my sense of humor, and ahonest sense that the world can be a better place,without the need for human suffering, if we simplyadjusted our policies, thoughts, and speech on thereal issues in a humane rather than hurtful manner.Having studied to be a historian at one point in myundergrad experiences, I have a perspective of pastlessons that seem to continue to have to berelearned, as well as a love for exploration, andthinking outside the box. To me, the status quo, isnot working, as long as one person on earth, ishomeless like me, jobless, had no opportunity for aneducation, go to sleep hungry, thirsty, in fear,

imprisonment, or without freedom. The hate andanger of this world can be solved if all 7 billion of ussimply said the power of No. No, I will not killthose peaceful protesters, no I will not charge morein interest to someone whom has demonstrated theyhave little ability to pay it back, for they obviouslyneed the help more so, than those whom alreadyhave the means to take care of themselves. We havean adversarial arrangement economically, withrespect to its all about exploiting and extractingmoney from people, as opposed to giving money topeople to empower them. And we all sleep, eachnight on this planet, under the imminent andunknown danger, that we all could be incinerated inan instant if something goes wrong and people pullthe nuclear trigger. To me, nuclear weaponsrepresent the single greatest danger to the humanspecies, more so than any other issue and if youthink we can handle nukes, just look at how manypeople here and around the world cannot evenhandle a gun without killing others or worse,themselves scary shit to me.

This is HUMAN BLOOD (photo web search)

Anyone tell me whom it belongs to?What is their ethnicity, their color oftheir skin,their eyes, their hair?Can you tell me what religion - if any,this personsblood belonged to?


14/34



Can you tell me what nation this bloodwas spilledin?Can you tell me who killed the person whose bloodthisonce flowed?Can you tell me what they died for?Blood is blood, - and aside from the major bloodtypes (A,O,B, AB, positiveor negative), the sameblood flows in all human beingsThen why does it seem, that depending upon whoseblood is spilled,people are happy, sad, demandchange, are horrified, or shocked?Why issome blood more important than otherswhen spilled?Is the blood ofsomeone in your land more importantthan in my land?Is the blood of onereligion more important thananother?Is the blood of those living free,more importantthan those dying to have the same freedom?


15/34



Is the bloodof those whom deny freedom moreimportant than those whose freedom isdenied?Human beings are curious creatures, for eventhough we all are human,we can either be humaneor inhumane when we see blood, dependinguponwhose blood we see - and the context associated withit.Next time you hear or see a protester smiling andwaving flags, and askingfor change, for freedom, inpeaceful non-violent, birthright to do so, andthensee them gunned down by soldiers, police, tanks, hitmen, yourneighbor, or by someone blowingthemselves up, or from a bomb droppedfrom above,ask yourself - why.. why do we continue to killeach otheron this singular planet? And why does itmatter, if someones bloodbelonged to Hitler orAnne Frank? Its still blood.. and we are stillsupposedly human beings. Strange how we canforget that in life.food for thought(Photo credit Bing search of blood from could beanywhere. Or not, if we refuse to fight, kill, anddie..).

The way forward is.

ideas are like rails. they can lead to all sorts ofdestinations unknown until one makes thejourney, one never knows what lies on the other sideshouldnt humanity be laying new tracks of love, ofequality, of cooperation rather than confrontation,rather than tear up the track through, war, hate,discrimination, and bigotry.?may the peace and love of god above, or for thosewhom dont believe, simply let peace and love enteryour heartswe are all in this one world together.stop fighting over a small tiny dot in space, andmove on past your differences. think peace.
