Here is what I have to say to you!
"YOU DESERVE TO BE ALIVE"
No matter what anyone else tells you or implies to you
YOU DESERVE TO BE ALIVE
Our world cultures often ask us to be cogs on a wheel that they wear down until we all die.
DON'T BELIEVE IT!
CREATE YOUR OWN WORLD
YOU ARE ONE OF GOD'S CHILDREN HERE ON EARTH!
DON'T LISTEN TO ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU ANYTHING ELSE
WE ARE ALL FREE BEINGS WHO DESERVE TO LIVE
AND WE WERE ALL CREATED IN GOD'S IMAGE AS HIS CHILDREN
BY GOD'S GRACE
I like to cut up the bananas in little circles and fry them in butter in a fry pan this way. However, everyone has their own way of doing this.
Basically, my father and grandfather had already moved all over the place since my grandfather was an Electrical Contractor and got Electrical Contracts from Seattle to Oregon to Arizona to Texas. Texas my grandmother was from. She also gave me my first .22 rifle which was a Remington Pump action that held about 17 bullets I think and one in the chamber when I was 8 years old. However, my father first went hunting with his two brothers without their father or anyone there when he was 6 and his brothers were 4 and 9 years old. The younger two had a .22 pistol and a .22 Rifle and the older brother had a small gauge shotgun designed for shooting doves or quail then. This happened I think around Coos Bay in Oregon likely when my Dad was 6 so this would have been 1922.
So, my Dad and Grandfather were always looking for a beautiful place in the wilderness to live or to stay for awhile. And I'm like this too where I don't like to be in a big city I like it remote and in the country somewhere beautiful with clear air and clean water to breathe and to drink.
So, I came about this desire naturally from my father and Grandfather and other relatives who were like this too.
So, after growing up in Los Angeles mostly because my parents were in charge of a church there in Los Angeles between 1954 and 1960 I started moving away from there first to San Diego (where my parents moved to in 1969. I went to San Diego mostly to return to college because I had already studied Computer programming and computer operations and learned how computers work both through programming them but also in how they are built too. So, even though I never got a job repairing computers I still could program them and operate them especially in almost any business setting.
However, then I realized what i wanted to do in the computer field wasn't going to happen until now when I'm 78 years old because chips were only used by NASA then and not in business really until the mid 1970s on and home computers didn't really get going until Apple computer started building them and the IBM PC and PC Clones started to be built in the early 1980s.
So, when I returned to San diego and went back to college I had pretty much given up living in a big city for the rest of my life starting then in 1969 when I was 21 years old. So, I went to Palomar College and San Diego State University at that time in my life but when I met my first wife and we had a son we moved to Mt. Shasta where many of my friends already lived then in 1976 for the first time.
So, a lot of the time between 1976 and 1992 I lived in Mt. Shasta but not since then. Making a living in Mt. Shasta was hard especially supporting a family. If you were single you could easily make it work but supporting a family there so remote was very hard. So, often I would eventually go buy another business in the San Francisco bay area and return there and my present wife and I still own a business even now when I'm 78 but she mostly runs it because she has a Master's degree in Business so is really good at business and investments. Her specialty also was a Master's in NON-Profits as well. So she has served on the board of many non-profit institutions over the years on their boards of directors.
So, since my present wife is not necessarily a country girl but more of an ocean girl who grew up sailing Concordia wooden Yachts and stuff like this and spending a year in the Mediterranean ocean on a large Yacht with friends during college she definitely prefers living on the ocean. I asked her if she wanted to buy another yacht when we got together but she said; "I can't repeat the amazing time I had with my parents growing up and sailing to Catalina Island and Santa Cruz Island off of Santa Barbara. So, I'm more of a mountain person but I love the ocean too so it works for me because I often travel to Mt. Shasta to ski and to visit friends 4 to 6 times a year for a week or more that I can do now that I'm mostly retired.
At this point my wife and I are more like Fire Captains in our business than anything else in the sense that we are only really needed in emergencies. Otherwise, most things are set up to work for us quite well.
However, I think trying to move to a really beautiful place even right out of high school or College is a good idea.
Even Mt. Shasta has College of the Siskiyous one town over in Weed, California and most people go to Chico State university when the transfer up as juniors who live there too. And there usually are jobs for single college students that are opening up every year for students at College of the Siskiyous.
I took a College Speech class and a Logics Class there at College of the Siskiyous around 1990 by the way and enjoyed it a lot.
I tried it and my wife went on line and bought me one for around 200 dollars. However, there are less expensive ones too that start maybe at 100 to 150 dollars as well. The one I got has a slot out the side where you can stick your thumb but I find that leaving my thumb inside the compressor seems to work better for me.
In my life I built a lot of houses and buildings starting with my Dad at age 8 or 10 years old working as an electrician. But, then my father and I built his retirement home on weekends between 1968 and 1980 on the 2 1/2 acres he bought between Yucca Valley and Landers on the High Desert too. I was there a lot helping him build this place especially between 1968 to 1976 when I moved to Mt. Shasta with my first wife. However, I would also visit and continue to work on this house more.
Anyway, driving nails with a hammer is hard on your thumbs I find and I have had pain in my thumb area where it connects to the hand since I was about 32 years old now. At first I thought it was tendonitis but my doctor said it is arthritis instead. But, I didn't have this pain at all until I was 32 but by then I had built many houses for myself and friends and for work often especially between the ages of 10 and 45 years old. If you want to live out in the country somewhere beautiful often working in the building trades or by Driving a semi Truck you can afford to live somewhere really really beautiful out in the Wilderness somewhere.
Otherwise you might have to wait until you retire to do this or it might never happen.
I find these air compressor based hand massagers are very helpful but of course each of us has different bodies and different needs according to our physical and mental dispositions.
