Roller Coaster Security: (Unedited): 29 Nov 2013:

The person who can objectively manage the insanity of their chosen business on a daily basis. Has job security no matter the ride on the economic roller coaster. 

C.J.MacKechnie

===============================================
The good boss or bosses always seem to know who can handle their self defined tough situations without whining, complaining or helplessness.
This is important for those young ones who are new to the adult working environment.
Become self empowering and self motivating. Become self inspiring.
Develop the attitude of getting the job done better than anyone else can. Create the belief in your bosses that they will need to hire two quality people just to replace you.
Become cross trained in many areas of your work place. Become comfortable with switching jobs and duties on the fly.

Avoid the fools comments. I wasn't hired to do that? Not my area of responsibility! It's break time or smoke break time. My back hurts. And etc. These types of workers will pollute your mind and attitude. Especially if you are any degree of an empath.

For the empathic worker. It is important that you remain in control of your thoughts and feelings. As a matter of fact you can do as the very negative people uncontrollably do. They all force their own negativity upon everyone without regard to anyone else feelings or even well being. Exude positivity all around you and every where you are about to be. Those people who genuinely want to feel good and positive will. those who relish the air of negativity will become angry. Maybe, they will become angry to often and quit or get fired. Those who live within the darkness of negativity cannot stand being in the presence of the loving light of a positive mind set. Just stand your ground and do not become negative, angry or hateful. This is exactly what the negative people want from you. This is where their power resides. When you deny them their dark power. they will have nothing to drive them. Once their focus is upon themselves as being fundamentally wrong they will go hide in a dark place with the cock roaches and rats.

Thankful Present: (Unedited): 28 Nov 2013:

Being thankful for what is present now. Is more important than the bad and sad memories of the past you survived. 

C.J.MacKechnie

==================================================
 My childhood story may sound bad and sad. But, there are a large number of children who have survived more abuses and tortures than I have. Then there are those children who died at the hands of their evil parents and relatives.
If you are reading this now. You have survived your awful past and stand victorious. Be thankful. Yes, thankful for your past. Because, your enduring strength is proven. Even though you may feel like the damaged victim. You survived it all and hopefully you are now in a safe place.

I am today, very thankful for what I have endured. I am very thankful for my wife and children. I am thankful for the life I have and had. I have experienced much and evolved from all of those negative experiences. This is important. So is the life you have had and will have. I hope you can find the positive in your whole life. Even if it does seem like that golden needle in a sea of golden hay. Your search for the positives in your life is well worth it.All of the abuse and tortures you have had to endure. Was never about you. It was always them, those who did those terrible things to you. You were just the body present.

Everyday is a Thanksgiving. I hope everyone can live everyday of their lives in a joyful celebration.

Profound extinction: (Unedited): 16 Nov 2013:

Distinctively profound changes in your life. Will always become your extinction as you continue on anew.  

 C.J.MacKechnie

====================================================
To suddenly become something you have never even considered. Is past tense. The fundamental change to you has already occurred. You are now a new creature. Hopefully a better and more positive one. But, sometimes the change can be the opposite of good and positive. The extinction of a good man often brings sadness to your loved ones.  While the extinction of the bad man brings a rejoicing to your loved ones.
Strive to be a good person by putting away those things which were once considered bad and evil.
Fight the apathy which has been put into you from the world. Regain your whole humanity by discovering you compassion and empathy for others. Even if you do not know them. Learn to love all of your brothers and sister. No matter whose mother they were born to or what lands they happen to be from.
Merge into your life the basic principles of love, peace and harmony. This is the only for everyone to have a life worth living and for the continuation of all life on the planets.
=======================================================
Personal:
Before I began writing and just before I met my last girlfriend who became my one and only wife (22+ Years of marriage). i was a bad person. There is no better way to explain it. i just did not care about other peoples feelings. i did not even care about myself. The fading scars on my knuckles, knees, arms, feet and other places are those reminders. Which i desire to be gone. The nick name of TAX which meant (Everyone will pay and they did). Is a long ago name which still at times burdens my soul. That bad person who was TAX is dead and extinct. Who i was is not who i am today. Hopefully a change for the better.

World Creation: Passive Participants: Unaware Sheep: Truth Revelation: (Unedited): 17 Oct 2013:

It is more important to create the world around you, then it is just to observe the world around you. 

C.J.MacKechnie

======================================================
There are people right now actively creating good worlds and evil worlds. The kind of world you passively observe may even be directed by other peoples (Medias) intentions and desires for you. You may not even be in control of what it is that you observe. If you do not like the world you see. Then actively change it. Hopefully you will choose to actively alter the world which surrounds you into something which is more positive and good.

A world which loves one another. 

A world which lives in peace. 

A world which exists in harmony.

Isn't that a much better world than one which is created by the ruling class and who call themselves leaders of their specific interest groups. All that they create is hate, war and chaos. Look at the world as it is now and tell me, my comments are not factual.
===================================================
Reject the medias news by just turning it off. Reject the whole of the entertainment community. Reject all which promotes wrongful living. Reject all which hints that there is no sin which can be done. Reject the notion that if it is right for you then it is right and a right. Wrongful living is still wrong even if the politics, cultures, religions and governments proclaims it's lies and deceptions as a truth. 
=====================================================
Passive Participants: (Unedited): 17 Oct 2013:

Passive participants in life are the sheep to be steered in the direction of their owners decision. Which is usually to better feeding grounds and then onto slaughter. 

C.J.MacKechnie

==============================================

Unaware Sheep:  (Unedited): 17 Oct 2013:

It is easier to steer the unaware fat and happy sheep to slaughter, then it is just to make them understand where it is they are going.

Experienced destiny: (Unedited): 29 Aug 2013:

Your destiny will only be experienced in the here and now. 

C.J.MacKechnie

=============================================
Every single moment in your adult life is your destiny experienced. So, if you like the outcome of your life right now. Continue on and continue to move forward. Continue to experience your destiny daily.
So, if you dislike or even hate the outcome of your life. Know that this is your destiny. This is your current here and now. You have three choices in this life you hate. 1) Continue on, 2) Just stop, 3) Change now. You are the only one who can alter your current state of affairs.. The effective changes you make in your life right now and all of the other right now's to come. Will eventually alter your destiny into something much more favorable. Just don't quit! Do not stop! Do not Give-up! Do not surrender! Do not retreat!

It doesn't matter how you really feel about today. Because your destiny in which you experience right now is the logical conclusion of all of your decisions (Right/wrong), actions and inaction's. It matters not if your even aware of all of those variables that took place to create the life you have now. The life you have now may not even have been your fault. Never the less, It is up to you to make the best future you can for yourself and for whomever you call family and friends. So, what shall you do with the life you have now. Continue on with living a miserable existence or do something much more positive? Everything is always a choice until to evolve to a point where doing right is not a choice.

We live in a time where a person can have more than one career. We also, live in a time where education is now perpetual. So, change your life into something more positive. Have and use your evolved awareness greater than that of any animal. By lifting yourself up and out of the filth of your life. Then never return back to it. You have always been empowered to do this. Even if you knew not of it.

Cultural Separation: (Unedited): 15 Aug 2013:

The divisiveness and exclusivity of cultures and sub-cultural lifestyles. Keeps the singular human family separated and isolated. 

C.J.MacKechnie

=================================================
There is an importance to in maintaining ones cultural heritage and ethic historical origins. This is a beginning stand point in learning what kind of physical person you are. That is the beginning in your own decision making process to weed out what is good and what is bad within you. Will you decide to grow, develop and evolve into something wonderful or shrink back into the ugliness of certain aspects of your ancestors histories?  Within every culture there is something wonderful and within every culture there is something incredibly ugly. How will you begin to live your life. Focused upon the positive wonderment of amazing history or fall deep into the negative depression of your ancestors failures? It is again your free choice to choose which you will live your life by. One decision should be how you live your life and the other should be learning those hard lessons you shall not repeat. Both histories are very important.

Altered Realities: (Unedited): 15 Aug 2013:

When the reality of your world comes into contact with the reality of my world. Both realities become altered. C.J.MacKechnie

=================================================
Your world is your own which is your own reality. My world is my own and is my own reality. When your world interacts with my world. Each of our own perceptions of each of our worlds become altered and changed forever.
Even though you have never met me and you are where ever you are reading this quote and comment. I have intentionally altered your world. Hopefully in a positive light. While you have not altered my world. Thus, technology can breed altered realities of other peoples worlds without any changing of the original authors world.

Morning Rains: (Unedited): 12 July 2013:

Hearing the morning rains fall as you begin to waken is the beginning of a new clean day. Enjoy this wonder with a positive mindset.
C.J.MacKechnie

=======================
The only guarantee of having a good or a bad day is how you think and feel. It matters not the condition of the day or even how other people perceive the day. A good day or a bad day is only decided by you. The whole of the universe isn't even interested how you think and feel about this day or any other. All of the wonders of the universe will still go on regardless.
=====================

To avert all of the coming bad and sad prophecies. We each must decide to do the following everyday, every hour, every minute and every second.

To Love one another.

To live in peace with everyone.

To exist in harmony with all.

To Cherish all life.

To be obedient to the Laws of God.

To become righteous and holy by the accepting eyes of God only.

Afflictions Faith: (Unedited): 30 June 2013:

Afflictions Beginnings

Mercies Endurance

Grace Realization

Faith Growth

C.J.MacKechnie
================================================================
Choices made during the onset of an affliction leads to a growth of spirit which can only be realized through weakness and suffering. Assuming you have the intent of JOB or JOB's wife and friends. Which kind of person are you. I am not talking about intentionally self created afflictions, sufferings or miseries. C.J.MacKechnie
The new onset of an affliction is your very real test of your spirit, mind and body. Even if in the end you body and mind fails. Your spirit still grows and evolves. Keep your healthy and positive attitude.
Even if your affliction is old or you were even born into it. Do not assign blame, anger or hatred to any other soul. To do so, causes those persons harm. Causing harm to anyone isn't from a heart with love, peace or harmony within it. Thus, Is not from the Heavenly father.  
Yes, it is true. You are suffering and may have been suffering for your entire life. Within you, you hold the necessary life and spiritual lessons for all who cross your path to witness and learn. Your outward expressions in life can be incredible sources of inspiration and motivation. Become and maintain your efforts to be something healthy and positive. Only a person in your position and situation can achieve something so great. Just be sure to harness that pride and ego. While holding on tight to your humility. "The reins of humility is like grasping for air". C.J.MacKechnie

Adventures Qualities: (Unedited): 28 May 2013:

The adventures experienced along any journey will accent your good positive qualities and reveal your bad negative qualities. C.J.MacKechnie

==========================================================
It is important to know all of the qualities about who you are right now and it is important to know all of the qualities you have expressed through action in your life's history. Both time sets aides you into your tomorrow. The decisions you make right now to change bad and negative qualities into good and positive ones is an improvement in the reputation of your namesake. This is how you make a profound meaning to your name.
The decisions and actions followed through on discovering something good and positive about your nature is a revelation like finding a gold nugget. Except no one can ever take it from you and you can always use it repeatedly, unlike the gold nugget you can only use once. 
The decisions and actions followed through on bettering your already known good positive qualities is a journey into personal greatness.

Knowing Success: (Unedited): 06 May 2013:

Hoping for success is your unprepared negativity. Just as knowing you will be successful is your fully prepared positive thinking and intention. C.J.MacKechnie
======================

Positive Fruits: (Unedited): 04 May 2013:

The fruits of free flowing positive thoughts and intentions is confidence and self assuredness.  C.J.MacKechnie

================
The fruits of positivity spreads like free flowing water which is refreshing to the parched pallet. You can become the conduit of the source of all good things. Family members will feel good being around you. Clan and tribesmen will feel good being around you. Those who are negative in thought and emotion will angrily spit upon your foolishness.  Those who reside in the darkened shadows of the cold hearted world will begin to desire to seek you out and inquire as to why you are who you are.
You have become that pin pricked light of the world. Without ever wanting to be. From you the conduit the positive light emanates and alters the cold darkened world into a whole world of loving light.

==================

Go and sin no more.

================
To avert all of the coming bad and sad prophecies. We each must decide to do the following everyday, every hour, every minute and every second.

To live in peace with everyone.

To exist in harmony with all.

To become righteous and holy by the accepting eyes of God only.

All without any pride, ego, arrogance, supremacy and entitlements.

Naturally Thinking: (Unedited): 04 May 2013:

Personally forced positive thinking is minutely comparable to naturally negative thinking.    

C.J.MacKechnie

============================
There is a logical ratio between negative thinking and positive thinking. Which in this case is about 50/50.
There is a ratio between forced positive thinking and natural negative thinking. Meaning if a great amount of time spent forcibly thinking positive and only a minute amount of time naturally thinking negative. Negativity within the person may actually have more power over the positivity.
The key is halting natural negative thinking while focusing on the forced positive thinking. Thus, creating the habit within the individual to create a natural process of positive thinking. All of this must be a willing choice of the person.
==================
All of this must be done without the use of any mind altering substance, pill, powder, drug, liquid, medication, inhalant, injection and etc. In today's level of medical technology. If there is no conclusive medical test or physical evidence for any brain defect, trauma. Then the mind altering medications must be weaned from the person in a controlled and monitored environment. Then can the process of creating a positive thinking process can begin. Possibly in a controlled and monitored environment. The length of this process can take a year or more and would be intensive on a daily basis.

Emotional Penny: (Unedited): 11 April 2013:

A penny is just a penny. It does not control how it lays, heads or tails, shiny or dirty. But. You who discovers a discarded penny is the one who assigns either a positive, negative or apathetic emotion to it. C.J.MacKechnie

===========================================
Even the conclusion that a penny is good luck or bad luck. It is you who emotionally decides if something is good or bad. Your acceptance of false belief systems, taught to you as a child from other people defines even today how you live. A penny is neither good luck or bad luck. But, A penny found means you now have more than what you had before and that simple fact may be just enough good luck, you need to jump start your positive life changes for the better. Heads is good luck and tails is bad luck is the false belief which takes away your freedom to choose if any such thing is good luck or bad luck to you. 
==================================
Choose to assign a positive emotion and conclusion to as many things as you can. Even when confronted with terrible terrible deeds. Find something positive to inspire others with. 
==========================
When you find any penny anywhere. Even if it is dirty and showing tails. Pick it up. clean it up. Pray, bless and mediate goodness into the penny. Then leave the shiny penny up on heads for another to discover. 
=================

Nonburning Tree: (Unedited): 18 June 2010:

Become this day the constructive spark that begins a positive forest fire of inspiration. Inspire others to inspire others. C.J.MacKechnie 

========================
 Don't be so concerned with the how. When you do already DO. Do you already. Concerned with the how don't be. YODA (Not really. made it up and the wife dislikes it, proclaiming discombobulated.). That is what I get for marrying a Vulcan.
===============
Think about this. We all naturally inspire others all of the time. We can offer negative inspiration, neutral Inspiration and positive inspiration. By you becoming a positive inspiration, you are actively making positive changes into the whole world. By you becoming a neutral inspiration, you express your apathy into the world. By you becoming a negative inspiration, you cause the whole world to become worse than it is.

Personal Comments: (UNedited): Various Dates:

Jun 12, 2010

I really hate when people say to those who are suffering from past trauma. To stop living in the past. When the result of everyday life is directly related to your past. You may not be able to do anything about your past but you can do something about your today and your tomorrow. By doing things that are positive and constructive in your life. Can you then begin the healing process. The healing process will truly begin when you begin to live clean. When you begin to live your life in accordance to old religious values. Just don't give up.

I'm a social misfit. I guess it is because I spent most of my childhood heavily medicated. Did not go to school much. I wasn't taught anything. Beside why should they. I had a tested IQ of 70. Then there was the closet. The belt. Other weapons of discipline. Being knocked out by various means. Mom proclaiming that we should not have adopted you. As a child of around 10. I have slept in a tree, under a railroad bridge. Inside of the big pier 60 on Clearwater beach, FL.

====================

with no one she quietly enters. Love so pure within her softly beating heart. Dark sparks of invisible misfire emanates from her very real mind. She dutifully sits at a table and silently waits for her love to bring her a popeyes fried chicken meal. She never takes her eyes off of him. The crowd dissipates. Confusion and loss sets in as she pushes up her rectangle rimmed glasses. She hand combs her auburn hand cut hair. Without a sound she walks up to the popeyes counter and asks where the man went who was just standing here a minute ago. The popeyes woman reinforcing her realty of delusion. Says he left. She quickly leaves alone and into her pretty blue car rushes off. C.J.MacKechnie

This really happened. Yesterday. Sawyer, MI. I-94, exit 12. T/A Truck stop.

I've discovered in life. That there are usually 3 choices to make on most problems or decisions to be made. Even in movies this is often true until the evile villain gives you only two choices and the hero saves the day or planet with the third option. I'm not big on horror movies. Probably because my chilhood was a continuous horror show. The current vampire/ werewolf/human movie. Is very similar with three choices in life that a young girl must make. I'm gonna call them the three important decisions in life that we all can make or have made and can still make. I think i'm running out of cell phone space so I will continue this in the comments. Forget about all of that girlie love and passion stuff in that sissy story lines. My observation is also lacking any testosterone manly manliness. So. Just open up your mind to the possibilities of the 4th choice. Forget the hormones. I heard you girls make those noises in the dark theater. Go to comments. Just breathe and cool down first. 

1st. Choice. The human choice. Which is very boring and your stuck in a week body that is always getting sick. Then you die. Very negative.  

2nd. Choice. The werewolf option. The emotionally primal and physically powerful werewolf is always the fun choice. That we can all choose to become. when we choose to de-evolve from our current human state.

3rd. Choice. The ultra cool and mysteriously dark vampires is always the sensible and chic/civilized/modern choice. That we can all choose to become when we deny our humanity and our ties to what it means to be human.  

The 4th. Choice. We can all choose to evolve and become the possible next step. Energetic light beings or enlightenment. This may also seem as boring as the basic human decision. There shouldn't be any drama and trauma as always associated with the werewolf and vampire decisions. Besides, when the vampires, werewolves and anything dark comes into your presence. They will become like fading smoke and Ashe. The end. C.J.MacKechnie

When your a slave to anyone, any group or any political thought. You will never have to concern yourself with anything that is important or complicated as defined by your master owner. Being a slave, you will never have to worry your pretty little head about thinking or planning, success or failure, profit or loss, efficiencies or waste, ideas or improvements. As a slave you will never become anxious about housing, education, food, water and health care. All of these things will be provided. So as long as you are of use and worth to your master owner. If you are not a slave to the master owner. Then you will not be allowed access to anything. Until you choose to become a slave and receive your mark. C.J.MacKechnie

Eye of the Storm:

Jul 12, 2010

You have been warned by those who are in the know. You set your sails and turned your rudder into the oddly beautiful sunset. For a short time the gentle breeze was fun. Then the winds became thrilling. The lightning and the waves as exciting as you have ever known. A new dawn approaches with it daylight you will not see. Your rudder damaged. Your mast is snapped and your boat is taking on water. The thrill and excitement you felt some time ago is now turned into a desperate weariness to helplessly stay alive. You call for help but all you get is unwanted verbal static. Suddenly like a blessing from GOD your underneath a beautiful sun and clear sky. Except all around you is dark foreboding clouds. You scream and cry for help. No response on your radio. All is hopeless in your cries for help. The ocean is unforgiving and it seems you will become one of the nameless many who have gone to the bottom. Not yet, for you. Your still alive this day. You can still be alive tomorrow if you you just continue to struggle. 

========================

Standing Strength:

Jul 13, 2010

There is always those that we encounter in our daily lives whom we admire for their strength and courage. Especially when they have been tested and purified by fire. We see them as heroes set above us common people. While us common people seem to always be less than or lacking in some way in comparison to these admired heroes. The truth will always be seen when you dirt bag of a common low life human bug discover. That these heroes in life are no different than you are. The only real difference is not so real. The hero decided to step up and stood alone in the face of the monster and conquered it. That single decision based purely in emotion is the only real difference between you and the hero. When the hero completes his heroic deed. He/she is still the same dirt bag low life human bug. With the same problems as you. Maybe even more problems. Decide to stand and be a hero that only can be defined by you. Face and confront the monster before you and inspire people that they to can do the same as you and better

Jul 13, 2010

I remember a story about a WW2 medal of honor winner. He was the loser among losers. Then one day something happened. He saved his brothers lives by rushing a German fortified pill box. A time passed and a general arrived with the media and no one could find him. He was peeling potatoes. He didn't even have a proper uniform. Your regular Forest Gump or Gomer Pyle i suppose. The point of my unedited write. Is to cause each of you to believe in yourselves. That you to can be that hero and at least save your own selves from the whatever monster that afflicts and torments you. You the unknown and forgotten are equal to or better than any known and famous hero. All you have to do is decide not to give up and quit ever. Period... An emotional decisions. That is the only difference between you and a claimed hero. A fireman will always find those he cannot save. A cop will always recover the body of an unsaved victim. Their failure they will always remember.

Jul 13, 2010

the average man who witnessed evil and did all he could. He had his list and cried that he could have saved more after the fact. Schindler. He stood alone in the face of the monster. He is no different then you are.

Jul 13, 2010

The simple and humble volunteer. Who does and does and does. Just a little bit everyday. The blood donors who have gallons of giving. The auto mechanic who fixed a car for a desperate woman. Etc. We all can be a hero to someone.

Expectations:

We as children often become exactly what our parents and society expect us to become. I figure that is why so many of my foster brothers and sisters end up in jail, homeless, mentally ill or a combination of all three. What happens when you realize that you are better, stronger, smarter? Than what your parents and all of society expected of you. What do you do now? Do you remain a turkey after tasting daily that your truly an eagle? But, always returning to the comfortable familiar life of being a turkey. Being a turkey is like being just average. You don't have to do anything very hard. Maybe society has expected you to be a farm animal. Everything is provided for the farm animal. Food, water, medical care, housing and the education needed to remain a farm animal. Just remember turkeys and farm animals always become food product for the farmer who is in complete control of your life. C.J.MacKechnie

Torment, insanity, misery, suffering, sadness, loneliness, confusion, abandonment, torture, disease and sickness. You die a thousand times everyday and yet you continue to believe that GOD ALMIGHTY has forsaken you. Deep within the valley of death all you know is the cold steel blade that pierces deep into your soul and burns you from the inside out. Your wails and cries hauntingly echoes from the canyon walls causing you to become more paranoid and more fearfull. You look into the shimmering shadows of the canyon walls only to discover. There not walls of rock. They are walls made up of a billion billion souls. All singing their same insane song of miserys lament. Your life, your energy, your hope, your love, your compassion, your kindness, your light, your heart is all being drained out of you. Soon very soon even your very identity will be gone from you as you become a part of the valley of death. The end is at hand and yet it is still your choice. Which song will you sing? C.J.MacKechnie

Remember it is not you who is lost to GOD. It is you who lost GOD. All you have to do is reach out for GOD and he will do the rest.

Life Storms: (Unedited): 11 June 2010:

Even during the rain storms of life. Something good and positive can be found if searched. 

C.J.MacKechnie
==================
If you are reading this and your life has been hell. Then know right this very moment. Your a survivor. Your a conqueror. Your victorious. Yes, You do not feel like one. Neither did I. But, never the less you are. Yes, the abuses and tortures you have endured were evil, bad and terrible. Yet, here you are reading this goofy quote.  Of all of the hell you have had to endure. Your strength and will defeated those who tried to end you. Your strength and will to live is proof that you won. I do understand, what I am trying to prove to you. I did not feel strong let alone a winner. I felt very much the opposite.
===============
No matter what you have already endured in this life. Even if you think and believe that all this life has ever been is Hell on Earth. There always is something positive to learn. Even if it is a simple positive thing that people can smile at in a weird way. Such as for me. "It is not good to try and kill your adopted son (me)". I know that was probably a failed attempt at humor. That is a basic lesson to learn. It is not good to kill your children, to abuse your children, to torture your children and etc.
There are about 500,00 kids in foster care every single year in the USA and the majority of those kids have parents who did not know that one simple truth and still don't. 
==================

Search for those positive good things which are within you. You are of great value and importance. 

==============

You are worthy of the life you know you should have. You can give to your own children the life you always ever wanted. make the effort and make it happen.

Lifes Death: (Unedited): 07 June 2010:

I have often wondered why some people often have so much death in their lives. Yet, they are the ones who must suffer through the memory of each one. Maybe, it is the school of "JOB" that they have to work through in this life. I do not think most of the people who have outlived family and friends ever realize it. Much like me. I always thought that death, misery and suffering surrounded me. I was the cause of it all. I even thought that I had the power to kill. Just by wishing it on a person. After all, My mother died two weeks after I called her every bad name That this once 13 year old could think of. Then I said; I hate you and I wish you were dead. My very last words. Then there was all of the foster kids that died in various ways or just disappeared. It took me a long long time. To realize that it was not me who was surrounded by death. It was my life that was experiencing all of the death, misery and suffering that was happening to other people around me. Even to the matter of me not dieing. I have come close to death many times and each time I survived in an logically unexplainable way. So, why must you and me continue to witness all of this death, misery and suffering? I think there are many reasons mostly related to you individually. I for myself have left those who are creators of drama of any kind far behind. Those of you who still are witnesses of death, misery and suffering. You to have control and power of your own life. You are the authors of the very next chapters of your own biography. Go and do what is positive for you in the here and now. Then discover what rewards will manifest for you several chapters later. There is and always be love, hope and compassion for those who seek it out. C.J.MacKechnie

Positive Outlook: Raptures explained: (unedited): 03 June 2010:

The positive outlook that you have from time to time in your life. Has always been solely under your control and by your own decision. C.J.MacKechnie 

================================================================
Histories Outlook:(Unedited) 03 June 2010:

Your positive outlook in life should not be tied to what is going. What has happened in your life or what will happen in your life. C.J.MacKechnie

===================================================================
 The positive outlook or even the negative outlook you have is all based on your own selected decision. It doesn't matter if the facts presented to you is true. This is the same premise of the glass is either half full or half empty. It is your decision in what you will believe and don't believe. Do you want to live your life with positive hope or negative despair. It is really that simple. How you think, feel and believe in your own tiny little world does have an effect/affect on the rest of those who bump into your world from time to time. Isn't it better to positively inspire others to be hopeful in life or just bash them into hopeless despair?
The world will change when you change the way you think, feel and believe. How do you want this world of planet earth to become? It is all up to you.
By you changing your belief system into something more positive. By changing the way you think into something more positive. Both of those together will have a positive effect on how you feel. Your feelings will become more positive. Then your whole life will become more positive.
==================================================================
If you spend all of your time thinking and believing that the prophecies you have studied will absolutely come true. Then your outlook on life may not be to positive. Especially when you have done the math in the Holy Bible end time prophecies. That approximately 5 billion people are going to die in a short period of time. You may be able to find some comfort in the pre tribulation rapture. But, still approximately 5 billion people are going to die.
==================================================================
Prophecy should not be thought of as something which will happen. Unless, you do not have the technology to avert a coming disaster.  Yes, this also includes those prophecies which are in the Holy Bible. Those prophecies which are in the Holy Bible are going to occur because of our collective wrong decisions. Those collective wrong decisions is what brings about the near extinction of all life on this planet Earth. Including Human Life. 
=================================================================
It is up to you to ascertain the truth of the information I have listed from other sources. You have to pray, meditate and contemplate on this.
For me personally, I do not believe in the Rapture. The history of the life of Early Christians is just further proof of no rapture. I'm not so rigid because I have no plans or intentions to argue or debate with GOD my Heavenly Father on HIS will. Just because, I do not believe in the rapture at which ever time it may happen. Doesn't mean I am going to reject the rapture when it happens and it may even happen all through the entire tribulation event. So, I am already prepared to be teased at my upcoming loving ridicule. I have no problem in declaring "Yep, I'm wrong, Now lets go".

Suicide drill: (Unedited): 25 Feb 2013:

In Basketball there is a conditioning drill called a suicide. The word suicide in this explanation is not a negative term or a word used to mean self death. For this blog post, The word suicide is that descriptive word which can mean anything as defined by you. A Suicide Drill exercise for you can be that thing which must be done in order for you to achieve a particular goal.
When a basketball player correctly does the Suicide Drill exercise. He or she will feel like they are about to die and that their coach wants them to die. This is of course far from the truth. The coach wants you to break through your own self created limitations and to exceed your own low level goals and personal expectations.
The Suicide Drill is necessary and crucial for your growth and positive development. The person who does the Suicide drills on their own time and at their personal level of personal conquest. That person will achieve a greater break through in that specific area of interest. Than the person who halfheartedly does a Suicide Drill while complaining under their own breath.
So, what is a suicide drill? Watch the YouTube basketball videos as provided below. Know this, to merely watch as opposed to experiencing a suicide drill as commanded by an evile coach is not the same. (I recommend watching the movie "Coach Carter" and focusing on the Coach and the lessons he is trying to teach). It is more than Basketball. The life lessons learned in Basketball and other sports is greater than the sport itself. The value of which cannot be calculated. So as long as respect, integrity and honor is taught.

The word use of "evile" is an attempt at humor. That is until the coach forces you to do more Suicide Drills (More Humor).

The suicide drill and KungFu is closely related to one another. Even if your specific area of interest is not Basketball. Your suicide drill is a fundamental part of your Kung Fu. The word Kung Fu is not tied to any specific Martial Art at least here in this blog post.
Your Kung Fu is your police officer badge, Your fire fighter uniform, Your medical doctor PHD, your retail store of employment, your welding shop, or your captain of a great ship. No matter your field of interest, it is your KungFu.
The suicide drills which you must do in your KungFu is directly related to your specific area of interest. The suicide drills is your homework which must be done in that class which you see no value or purpose in. The suicide drills for the military man, lawman can be Martial Arts, firearm training and memorizing laws, SunTzu and boring theories of strategy.

The Suicide drills that you do is going to be uncomfortable for you and very challenging. Even to the point where you decide that quitting is a very real option. Which quitting is never an option unless you desire for your future to become a quitter and consider yourself as a quitter. Yes, This is a part of the hero or zero mentality. In which many psycho-ologists believe to be an error of thinking. It is not an error of thinking it is a driving force in the area of achievement. Which must be coupled with Honor, Integrity and Respect.
Your greatest achievements in life will come when your are the most stressed, uncomfortable and that which you are doing doesn't seem possible for you. The thing that you which you consider as impossible is impossible. That is until your thinking and belief systems changes into "I'm Possible".

I also recommend watching the Movie "Rudy". Keep focused on his life. Walking into an unknown and homelessness. keeping focused on the goal, even after continued rejection after rejection. Even when he gave up he still could not.
