The Giving Pledge

So, if I were a real writter, and billions of dollars, this would be my letter for http://givingpledge.org/
Dedicated to Steven King, one of my favorite writers.

There was a time when society was young. Where a simple act's effect could be seen and felt by all. Where there was only one shoe maker, and if he was taught to be better, the whole society was affected and became better.
We are not as young or small. An effect of one day, will take years to be felt. Somehow you will never how it can happen. So, why would you spend your money today to make it better.
Now, sometimes parents can image wild ideas. You'd think, if I had my child become a doctor he can cure cancer. But it seems to be more complicated then that. Your child could drop out of medical school, start drugs, never procreate and maybe he could have never been the one to cure cancer.
As a writer, I can see how a simple step can end in murder, romance, or simply an end. But it took 50+ pages to get there and it was never a straight path.
I would try to donate to a school to allow music to stay, and again, you'd say to promote more doctors curing cancer or world peace. And maybe someday it will amount to that. But if that music class can teach one child to be better, he could become a more respectful manager, and create a company for your children and other's to work at. Since your children are gainfully employeed, they can send your grandchild to medical school, and then cure cancer. Another's could have the oppertunity become a singer, to help sooth people's pain-maybe your grandchild's as he makes it through medical school. Another's could becomes president-who was ironicly cured by your grandchild and as a result creates world peace. But a simple act could have great results we could never know.
Donating can be complicated. As one person noted, it's like picking stocks. As a stock owner, you must understand that your job is to not run the business, but to fund the business and follow it to make sure it is doing it's job. They also say, invest into something you enjoy yourself. I enjoy music, so I might donate into programs that help that. Yet, some say look only at statistics. But you know in writing, irony likes to chase after us, so throw away the idea that your wasting your money away.
Yes, everyone wants a million (or even billion) dollars to not have to worry, but somehow we will always worry. You store it away, but it will never be enough to pay the devil to keep yourself and your loved one's alive. Now, back to our little society, where you could have keep that money for a foot massage, or give it to the shoe maker-who uses it to make better shoes. We will never know what our next problem will be, or who will help the solution, but you make the world a little better somehow it will snowball back to you in ways you will never know.

Drains: Oil, tar & hot water

Tell me about your house's pluming. Can you tell me what causes problems in it? Cooking oil. Remember how they tell you run hot water to let move allow smoothly though? Then there is food, which is why you have a garbage disposer. Sometimes you'd use a Drain-o or something. All make sense. Now what would you think is the worse thing to do to your drain, dump tar down it.
Now lets examine your body. You have a different type of pluming and I'm not talking about pee. I'm talking your blood. There pipes running all through your body called veins. Every time you eat it gets digested into your blood, actually everything you ingest gets sent through your blood along your veins. That cooking oil is much like the fatty food you eat. It gets into your blood and then when you cool it cools onto your veins. The idea of running hot water is like a good exercise, it heats up the blood and it moves along better. Now you wonder if good cholesterol is good. You don't through oil or food down the drain to de-clog it, it would just stick and make everything worse. No you use Drain-o. Pipes/veins aren't going to stay unclog, the body must continues de-clog it, so it uses it's own Drain-o (good cholesterol). The last is tar. This for you dumb butts who smoke. Guess what you are doing, you are dumping tar into your veins, and then they burst & clog. Heart attacks, DVT, lung damage from not smoking but from blood clots.
Side note: Deep Vein Thrombos. It is when you veins or pipes in your leg are clogged. Now the major problem is that all your pipes are connected. Now the pipes up north are kept cleaner, since they are smaller. Food is pushed through faster. Now image you have a clot, big clot and a piece breaks off running down the pipes, it's ok. But then it gets to a smaller pipe, and that important pipe with major flow clogs and then bursts. Life starts to suck. That's how a clot in your leg could lead to a heart attack or broken vein by your lung (which floods and kills you).
So, remember, keep your hot water running with short exercise. Don't dump too much oil down the drains. Never dump tar down the drain!!!

God in Hell

There are those who say there is no hell. But with that statement, you are denying everything that is Jesus, and his purpose. We are not all going to heaven. & you may start to think, i'm saying 'the Jewish, the Protestant, the Buddhist, and ect are not going to heaven' & that is just bigest. I am not saying that, and that will forever be debated. What I am saying is that heaven, no matter what you do, & how into you are, is still a choice. Now, we can go on forever about freewill, and that is important. But who cares, b/c I will now tell you about hell.
One would summate it to depression. You are in a room, a party, but you feel outside it, like you're not there & almost don't want to be there. It is heaven, but to you, it feels like hell. It is in one's self. When you are there but it is your choice to not feel. The hardest part to understand about hell, is that's it's not a place, it's a state. As we live, we are in time. We have that luxury. But when we die, we are pulled from time itself, into the forever. We must choice how to stay in this forever.
Now it reminds me of when hell was introduced to me as burning flames. The 3 children had a vision of Mary where she took them down to the pits and they felt the burn/pain. Now, they would say it felt like flames, but it was cold as ice. The idea is like freezer burn. It is so cold it burns through your skin. That is the feeling, and yes everyone around could be warm and bright, but their hearts are frozen under.
Sometimes you meet a person, and they are out there, that their hearts are described as frozen. Sometime you call your x-boyfriend (he-he) but sometimes it's a murder.
Within this earth, you can feel what they make the room feel like, what they have choicen. It sometimes makes your heart hurt. But they show no hurt, no remorse. They seem to not have feeling. Like if your toe was in the cold too long, and sometimes the heat would hurt, but otherwise you can't feel. That happens, when the feeling starts to return to a heart, it hurts & sometimes burns, and that stage must be felt. You can just remove your toe, but you lose a part of you.
Now, back to hell. So, you say it doesn't exist. When you feel the heat of the lord, your heart will melt and you will join him. But again, sometimes that heat can hurt; sometimes you just want to not go into the light. And God, with his freewill, will not force you, let you not feel him. If you don't want the hug, he will not force it. I mean, if your ugly relative forces a hug are you feeling the love? Now, it's hard, you must feel the pain, you must feel the love, and you must understand the heat and be patient. A frozen toe will not thaw easily. But like doctors, God will give you a choice saw it off, let it thaw or leave it frozen. & because you can be left with that frozen heart, the place that is not a place, but a state, will always be there.
