Looking for my place in the Sun

This is about my experience of the 1980s mostly. In 1980 I was 32 years old and I remarried and at the time I was a single father. The next five years living mostly in Mt. Shasta are part of the reason why I'm still alive at 72 years old now. The 1980s where where for me life finally started making some sense.

The 1960s and the 1970s were pretty insane as decades because of Cuban Missile Crisis (we all almost got nuked and died), The Kennedy Assassination (people stopped trusting the government at all after that), The Viet Nam War (Why were we even there let alone losing 50,000 of our boys and some girls?) Then the Flower Children and young people on acid dying in addition to the 50,000 who died in Viet Nam. Then Watergate and Nixon resigning. By the way there's an entertaining movie Starring Travis Fimmel from Vikings on TV by the way called "Finding STeve McQueen" which is also amazingly a true story that might entertain you from the 1972 to 1980s type of movie.

So, the 1960s and the 1970s were really really crazy and if you lived through that as a teenager or adult you know I'm telling you the truth and many people killed themselves accidentally or on purpose through these times because of the insanity of it all. However, now might in it's own way be even more insane world wlde than then because of coronavirus and thousands to millions of deaths worldwide.

But, the 1980s were a time when at 32 (which is the physically happiest a person tends to get before their bodies sometimes start giving them problems by their late 30s where you actually might have your act together enough to be happy for awhile. And I was like this from 1980 until I came back from India, Nepal, Thailand and Japan after 4 months there in April of 1986. But, being unhappy started with my father passing away in 1985 in August. But, going to Asia with my family sort of distracted me from my father's passing for almost a year after that. But, I really was in shock of a very deep kind from the moment he passed on likely until 1998 when I almost died myself from a heart virus when I was 50.

But, the 1980s, (specifically 1980 to 1985) were very good years both physically and spiritually and my life really began coming together and making more sense to me than ever before during this time. And this time allowed me enough peace so that I'm still alive now at 72 which I believe is a good thing not only for me but for everyone in their lives. Because I can bring a lot of wisdom and enlightenment into everyone's life that I can touch.

It was between 1980 and 1985 that I felt the hand of God Guiding me powerfully in everything I did. It was like God had a special plan for me and wanted to make sure I learned specific things while I was raising my children. And I'm always grateful to God for what he showed me during this time raising my older children.
