LIFE LONG HUMAN VALUES
INTRODUCTION
The millennium dream of mankind to find the MAGIC WAND, GENIE IN THE BOTTLE, or GOD’S MESSAGE is still unsatisfied. Everyone is waiting for a miracle. When will we be blessed to possess this magic power? Is this the millennium which will make things happen? IT’S POSSIBLE because we possess and control fantastic technologies that will change our lives. We have created super fast transports, super fast communications, supermedicines, superior household conveniences, and easy living consumables. Now, this is a good time to think about where we are all heading. Are we heading in the right direction for the survival of the humanoids for the next million years? The dinosaurs did it for a million years. The birds and fishes did it for millions of years without the super inventions. Maybe mankind should develop fins and feathers for prolonging generations. No doubt a flying fish may absolutely be the best way to go. It sure can solve a lot of problems that humans must cope with on this earth. Realistically, the goal should be to solve problems, not to create problems. CAN WE FUNCTION WITHOUT CREATING PROBLEMS? Yes, we can pursue the zero problem goal by consequential analysis. The ultimate consequence of our action should be focused on it’ s impact of future generations. It’s GOD’S PLAN to perpetuate the human life for centuries to come. Everything on this planet and universe must be in balance to make this chemistry possible. Anything that upsets the chemical balance will ultimately interfere with GOD’S PLAN.
We must start thinking and imagining the values which will promote the balance necessary to accomplish the end result of maintaining life. The HUMAN RACE must decide which HUMAN VALUES are important to sustain itself.
Somehow, the organic species that have perpetuated itself for millions of years have promoted IT’S VALUES with excellent results.
Whether it is natural or acquired, the results show that it is working for them every moment. Although HUMANS are natural, it must learn and acquire IT’S VALUES… Now, THIS CAN BE A DILEMMA…
The dilemma is deciding WHAT IS VALUABLE? Everyone has a prejudiced or preconceived notion about what is valuable. Of course, a rational approach to deciding is simply to concentrate on things closest to one’s life. THE THINGS that are essential to one’s existence can easily be determined as first priority items. The essentials to be considered are incorporated within each individual. A BOOKLET GUIDE has been written for each essential consideration. The listed ten guides follow:
#1 GOD the holy approach to human relationships
#2 WATER the most basic substance
#3 NUTRITION the health assuring chemicals
#4 NATURE the interaction of live species
#5 READING/WRITING the key to human communications
#6 CALCULATION the mental ability to judge physical facts
#7 FACILITATING the organizational tools you need to make it happen
#8 HUMAN SENSES the human awareness factor
#9 LEADERSHIP the individual to group relationship
#10 LOGIC the organization of the mind
The key thought here is that the focus is on the individual. Each individual must take the responsibility of doing the proper thing. THIS RESPONSIBILITY can only happen when it is PROGRAMMED TO LOAD ITSELF with the LIVING ATTITUDE. The loading never ends because it is a life long task. The LIVING ATTITUDE is your freedom to choose the proper nutrients of fact, food and vibrations in this world to enrich your life. All the assimilation will meld within you to create a WHOLISTIC
individual. Now, that is GOD’S MIRACLE. GOD has given us the facility to create that BEING within each individual.
CO-MEND YOURSELF FOR LIFE
HUMAN VALUES SERIES
By James V. Morgia
OVERVIEW
The book is about the degradation of the human character because of unwitting negativism to the defenseless child. The abused person will grow up without hope, and seek shortcuts to a limited life. It is everyone’s duty to keep order with God’s help.
This is a HUMAN VALUE series

Why write books? When do you write a book? There must be a reason for writing a book, especially when problems must be solved. The problems requiring attention and solution are sometimes so unusual and micro-sized that they escape classification. Very little is written about these loose ends because they happen in a millisecond. They defy recording because they are almost a private matter. There are millions of undertones or utterances daily which are ‘undetected emotional abuses’ to our defenseless children. How can a statement like this be made without witnesses? The answer is all around us. Today, we must be aware of the belligerent teenagers amongst us. They were provoked to grow up that way. Who can blame a child?
Is it too late to write a book to address this national problem? Not if people read this book and heed the advice. Note that this problem is probably one for psychologists to solve. They have not done it yet. Can a writing person who reads and reacts to everything in life do any good? Maybe! The solution will require interdisciplinary knowledge.
This book is titled Co-mend Yourself For Life
because it is necessary to get God’s help in this matter. God gave us the commandments thousands of years ago. It is a great command for goodness for the human race. It is God’s law to promote the good life.
The commandments are a just law from God. They guarantee you a spot in heaven. You all know the laws by heart and I will not discuss them all because I am not a theologian. However, I hope to explore some of these laws in this book, to help correct our national problem. The general laws relate to stealing, lying, and killing.
In this book, God’s help is important to mend people’s lives. Hence, Co-mend means we will work with God’s blessing to solve the problem. We must understand that God gave humans an enormous brain. Every species on this planet has an unconscious mental network, which monitors the bodily functions automatically. It orders the body organs to do the right thing.
The extraordinary part of the human mind is the conscience portion, which picks up all the sounds, light impulses, smell, and feel that the body experiences. This magnificent organ starts out as a ‘blank tape’ or ‘disc’ to record our history. Imagine for a moment that it could be your key through the pearly gates. Guess what is the important aspect of the mental process? Could it be that it works best when all the impulses are of a positive nature?. God knew the proper approach for loading the mind.
God knew that any negatives such as stealing, lying, and killing, etc. would deteriorate the mental harmony. Hence, the commandments are important to the human tranquillity. In addition, it promotes harmony, beyond the individual and family, to the society.
I will attempt a layman’s explanation here for some of the most pressing problems facing this country. Some of our most trusted congressional leaders admit that there is a need for a better moral foundation, to stop the decline in moral value, to teach our children more character values, to reduce crime, to prevent dropping out of school, and the need to teach lasting true values both at home and in the schools.
Basically, God’s commandments not only help the individual, but they are a must to preserve the human race. Each individual is an important person, part of a family, and part of a society. No one is an island. The inter-relationship must be void of vulgarity, selfishness, and negativity. The earthly humans must make it happen for the coming million years. We are responsible because God wants us to do the right thing with the right stuff.
This book will generally address only the unseen, unrecorded micro abuses, which are destroying the mental fiber of our youth. We must incorporate the amendment principle with God’s help; hence, the title’s key word Co-mend. The task to amend our most precious possession at this moment in history is awesome. We must use trillions of positive micro pulses every day to restore the human character.
CHAPTER I-ANALYSIS
It is a good idea to analyze the reason which created our basic moral problem. Note that the title implies mending our status with God’s help. Note that nothing in this book will change any religious structure. It is intended that we focus on the small loose ends which are unraveling our moral fabric. The moral fabric is what holds our society together. Whatever develops in this book, it will help individuals and society alike. Every religion has its rules or commands.
There is a reaction beyond every event or occurrence-it is the consequence. The reactions keep following the initial action. When two chemicals are combined under certain conditions, there always is a reaction product. The new product is different than the original chemical. Nature works constantly to produce new substances from basic chemicals in an efficient manner. A subtle light impulse from the sun converts basic water and carbon dioxide into multi-chain complexes every moment, all over the world. The key thought here is simply that the impulse of energy which is almost too small to measure, the photon, results in providing fuel and food in millions of tons each year.
The examination of a thing to determine its parts is an analysis, or dissection. The natural chemical reaction is analogous to the problem which is undermining our society. It closely resembles what is happening around us. It takes a lot of imagination on my part to declare the idea. I do a lot of reading in many subjects, but I can not say that I read it somewhere.
The negativism destroys the Godly mandate. It negates or nullifies the tranquil mind, which works best in a positive mode. Every day a beautiful child is subjected to negative impulses, such as a demeaning word, a mean look, a slur, or an unreligious word. The damage to the well-being of the child is awesome. Sure, no one was buried because there is no habeus corpus. Sure, no one committed a civil crime. Nevertheless, a crime
was committed! No commandments were broken! So, what is the explanation to the readers here? The consequences!
Imagine that the negative impulse created a loose thought or flagella (long whip-like appendage on plants or animals), something like an oxidant within your body which must be neutralized or it will become cancerous. Now-a-days everyone talks about taking in anti-oxidants to avoid body problems. Now, picture the ‘flagella notion" as un-weaning of your moral thought or fabric, diagraphical
speaking.
The consequence of all the negative impact will stay with the victim. The victim has nowhere to turn in order to lodge a complaint. Often they are not ready to talk. The micro-abuse is widespread and the perpetrator may pass as a good citizen or good church goer. Is being right sometimes wrong? Something is wrong with being right. You may be harming God’s child. What can you do as a parent to avoid the consequence? Be patient and explain person-to-person that you love them, but disapprove of their behavior only.
First, do not unravel the child. Think about being patient and constructive; otherwise the child will develop into an irrational, radical person which can be offensive to society.
Second, if the wound has been inflicted, seek forgiveness from God or from the victim.
Third, give the child hope by building its character. Encouraging good behavior and positive thinking will improve the child’s self-esteem.
Fourth, the child understands only one thing; and that is what it sees and hears. Be a good example and model for your child to follow. It will follow your pattern, not your promises.
CHAPTER II-FAMILY LOVE
The most important years of a person’s life is pre-school time. The child’s development must be a positive, active one. The child or children are watching and listening to your style. All species’ offspring constantly follow their parent’s action to learn how to perform. While they are constantly under the protection of their parents, they are learning rapidly and constantly. Nothing in this wild world is allowed near these tender, powerless creatures. They are not turned loose until they are ready to forage and protect themselves.
It is important for your offspring to start thinking like you do. It is okay for the child to listen and bond with you constantly. Getting the baby to sleep often stifles the mental growth. Every move that you make is watched for imitation. When the children do mimic your actions, it is a sign of family love. Family love is really true bonding between all members of the family. Everyone likes what the others are doing. Everyone does things in the same manner and everyone is cooperating to help each other. Things do not get better than this scenario because the basic training for a good life has started and it is working daily for the family, no matter what your situation in life. Every family should start with this basic foundation.
The basic family love is essential for all life. God knows that the young ones must be fed and developed to propagate correctly. There is no other way than God’s way. Can you imagine when bringing up baby, a scene like this: We need a crib.
I only have one bottle.
Did you sterilize the water?
It is obvious that this was not a planned parenthood. The parents were not ready for the delivery because of loose controls.
The direction of this writing points to the key thought that the basic family love starts with two beautiful people that are truly in love. It means that there is no one else for them on this planet and that they will be together forever. God wants the true bond first, before the conception; otherwise, we will all end up with unloved children.
Guess what? A truly blessed love is dedicated to be a family first affair. The other affairs which sometimes is referred to as sowing the wild oats
really is playing roulette with a loaded chamber in the gun. The affair should not get involved to a point where it gets addictive. Remember, once tried, you are hooked. Mother nature wants you to populate the earth. You must promote your moral training to avoid the ovalation. The improper mating will open Pandora’s box and release many problems which will be dumped onto the offspring. Think positive about the ultimate consequence.
The picking of a partner for life should be your primary goal. I remember Mayflower Donuts’ advertisement to keep your eyes on the donut not the hole.
This is the whole story. In the next chapter, you will learn that socializing with people and neighbors is a good way to find your partner. Your partner must have moral values that will build a loving family as God intended. The reason for this is very obvious. Your life will not always be a bed or roses. Some thorns will poke through to pressure your relationship and many unforeseen problems will call for sacrifices. True love will overcome!
After a true love start, the results can be predictable, but you must be the most important teacher to the child. You must let the child know that it is an important part of the family. You must always display honesty and truthfulness. Your good example will always speak louder than words. You must explain that everyone in the family has duties and responsibilities which must be coordinated. Let the children help at first before they do it alone. Make them feel good about their achievements. Do not push them too fast.
The above scenario is really an ideal family that works; but too many interruptions and extra familial interference will make you feel helpless. Consider two parents arguing in front of their children. This is demoralizing. Children must avoid negative situations. Children must tune out obnoxious programs and unwholesome information.
Remember the saying, I am giving my child everything that I never got
? This is an attitude that prevails in many households. You take a second job to buy the child all the extra hardware to comfort them. It this what the child wants or needs? Not really! The child wants you home more. It does not want to be loaded down with ‘dust collectors’. You should be loading up its brain with love and inner values. You should show them honesty, politeness, sharing, and understanding to build the family love. Family love is the bedrock of real character.
CHAPTER III-NEIGHBORLY LOVE
The command to love thy neighbor as thyself is definitely positive. This is more like a friendly love. The word love
is misleading because it covers a lot of situations. The proper thought here is be friendly. Yes, it is a good idea to make friends to share ideas, experiences, and assistance. The friendly association with your neighbor will eventually lead to trusting them. Yes, this was a fact of life many years ago, when everyone never locked their house doors because of neighborly trust. Now-a-days, every door is locked because of possible intrusion.
Making friends makes life value worth more. It is better than money in the bank, because when you need a friend to help you overcome a problem, it is priceless.
Making friends in social environments is especially beneficial to young people who are interested in meeting a future partner. Just talking or playing games can encourage serious contenders to meet again. Remember, just because circumstances created this friendly match, the chances are that you should check out a few more friendly matches. Beware of some enchanted evening events
which can affect your emotions. Your emotions can play a part in your decision process because of the physical attraction. Fools give you reason, but wise men never try. Your one and only true love will be found somewhere on the crowded floor or crowded avenue.
The best, carefree years of your life are when you are entrusted to be alone in this wide world exploring schools, jobs, and making friendly contacts. Who will guide you to make the right decision? God is your co-pilot!
This is a good place to inject a story called, The Tale of Two Young Adults
.
The first young adult is anxious to get started in life and have an enjoyable time, since life is short. At this point the job is decent and the wages are livable. Let the good times roll! In a few short years the young adult must devote all their leisure time to bringing up baby. This is God’s gift to young lovers, wherever you are
. If it is lucky, things will work out satisfactorily. If it encounters unexpected problems, then everyone will suffer because of scapegoating.
The second young adult is not so lucky as the first, since it has not found the true love, but is learning and working and meeting new friends. After years of freedom, it must decide that a choice of partner must be made. Guess what? It was a voluntary choice. It was not forced by circumstances. Now that it is involved with its true love, life will be as God intended it. It is blissful from the start. The union will last through turmoil because, in the final analysis, both sides were heavenly matches. This splendid start will mean a positive attitude for the child. The child is a gift earned from mutual respect and admiration.
There is more to neighborly friendship than meeting your true love. It is the belonging to a society. The society is a source of strength and belonging which is comforting and trusting. The friends will accept and share knowledge and help. Everyone wins. Everyone learns rapidly that respect appreciates the rights of others. Love thy neighbor friendship, really is understanding the changing world about you. You must keep up with the social information so that you can receive aid and information which will make life easier for you. Really everyone is contributing something to the community. A lot of the transactions are in the nature of sharing your good fortunes with the needy types. Sharing your wine will increase your inner spirits!
Your life will improve when you avoid downgrading your neighbor. They will react to build your ego, so that you do not have to impress people with your new car or your super home-on-the-range gas grill. Your life will improve when you are agreeable to see the other person’s point of view and sympathize with their feelings.
Your life will improve when you respond to small requests from your daily contacts. Your life will improve when you get involved with a men’s club or women’s club, or a scout organization. Your life will improve with other neighborly activities. So stay in touch!
CHAPTER IV-101 LOVE
The most serious love is the one with one union. This usually is referred to as making love. This word is the most over-worked idea. The mere mention of the word in a publication, television, song, and conversation, means one thing. A course could be offered in college as Love 101, a basic college course. No question, every freshman would enroll and get an A
grade.
The whole idea here is to magnify the union of two individuals. When this happens under civil law and God’s law, it is considered forever. This is true love. This would make an excellent ending for this chapter. Everyone lives happily ever after.
Now, let us turn back the clock and find out what is wrong with the world. This world has a lot of problems because someone has let the act out of the bag. The word act was not misspelled. People use the L
word and the F
word as the in
thing to do. How obnoxious! Guess what? When anyone runs out of presentable material, they bring out the L
and F
word or idea. They will always get a reaction or your attention because it is instinctive. What can a person do!
The only thing you can do is to not buy the advertised product. You can mend this world by avoiding the untimely use of a Godly gift. This particular trend is not decreasing, but it is increasing. God’s sacred gift to mankind is grossly abused. Imagine teenagers, just out of their diapers, are making this a challenging sport activity. The consequence of such a me-too
