    Stop supporting the goverment, don't become a cop, don't join the army, get to know your neighbor better.

    The dollar bill is an illusion and a form of slavery of the 21st century.

    The tax code is over 10,000,000 words. It is filled with loop holes. Learn it, because you will soon learn the whole country is being fucking over. The bible is just over 700,000 words to give you an idea of the size. Most people know nothing of the tax code.

    Your political leaders are nothing but a mafia for there own personal benefits.

    "When the government fears the people there is liberty, when the people fear the government there is tyranny." Thomas Jefferson

    Im saying don't trust the government, don't support them, find the truth yourself, they will not do it for you. The first sentence sums up what was most important about my message.

    can you tell me which definition of the word 'legacy' this falls under?

    leg·a·cy   [leg-uh-see] noun, plural -cies.

    1.Law . a gift of property, especially personal property, as money, by will; a bequest.

    2.anything handed down from the past, as from an ancestor or predecessor: the legacy of ancient Rome.

    3. an applicant to or student at a school that was attended by his or her parent.

    4. Obsolete . the office, function, or commission of a legate.

    –adjective

    5. of or pertaining to old or outdated computer hardware, software, or data that, while still functional, does not work well with up-to-date systems.




    perhaps you need to read the tax code less and the dictionary more

    Hopefully I will leave behind two children who love life and have balance in their lives.

    I also intend to leave with a smile! :)

    I don't have any kids or anything to be super proud of as of yet...

    But if I were to die tomorrow, I think the thing I'd leave behind is my strength and kindness...everyone knows me as "the girl that took care of her father during his last months" so I've come to like that title...people saw how kind I was and how much I did for him, so maybe they'll actually learn something from it...

    I have seven sons and a small herd of grandkids, plus a handful of stray kids that I raised along with my 7 legally adopted sons. I have a huge family in Peru that has adopted me with lots of kids and grandkids there. I've been able to touch a few other lives along the Amazon River, my second home. Over the years I've planted 1000's of trees and perenial flowers. At present I'm working on building a fine big stone wall to enclose an area for serenity in back of my US home. I've been damned lucky in life.

    To save as many plants as possible from extinction is my goal...

    At the moment all I have really done is find a endangered plant in a new area where it has never been recorded before.
