Five Basics

I've been thinking tonight ... many things ... but in particular about religion. There are some great (and wise) religious writings in circulation ... the Quran, Bible, Tora ... and on and on ... what gets to me is the singularity of thought that's born within individuals who are exposed to just one of these ... think about it ... if you are a kid ... and every day I tell you an ash tray is a chair (and I am in a senior position to control what is said or not said) ... after hearing it over and over and over and over ... you will (more often than not) believe it.

So anyway ... my point is this ... there are many, many, many ways to see reality ... your own personal reality if you will ... is based upon your life experiences and your personal story and your personal reality. I

I love diversity of thought. Where two people with completely different indoctrination can sit down and agree on five basic universal principals.And I have observed this truth in every country I have spent time in (20+). I know it's not many, but more than most.

Every man wants:

#1 Home
#2 Love
#3 Children
#4 Food
#5 Happiness

Shoulda said "most men" ... I am not qualified to know what women want, so I kept it specific to men. @RightSaidFred

The Buddha said that in life there are four necessities: clothing, food, lodging and medicine.

came to sihanoukville 12 years ago to die of cancer
been to kampot & kampong thom since then ..
now siem reap ..
the reallity of having a motherless ( useless mother ) kid at 70 + years of age here is sinking in and causing some problems .
it wasnt very bad up until 4 years old baby .. but the reallity of his growing up now and the problems of raising him , and
worry about his future when " grampa " dies is stress fulll !

i applied for social security and came up short
too much around the wirld not paying in , japan & thailand
i only earned 75% of what is needed . so thats not happening ..

so a bit useless to even try the " report of birth abroad " , no survivor benefit there
.. unless i could do it with just a DNA test . but whats the point ?

i got X? amount of years until i die to find him a " fairy " godmother .

Would it not be worthwhile at least giving him that possible option for his own future? Register the birth, give him the future choice.

Oh, so you believe all men wants children, but possibly not all women?

That makes sense, as a man you probably only know what all other men thinks and wants.

But as a military man, should you not be able to tap into anyone's brain? Man, woman or animal alike?

Also, I'm pretty sure that I'm not a woman, although it's hard to be 100% sure of anything these days with fake news and weird pronouns.

Yes , will do everything I can for him . For his god given right .
To be 1/2 american

If it’s possible in my life I will do ..
also must find that godmother ,
because I been to ABA bank and they will not let him have
the $$$ in our joint account since he is a minor
They want to totally keep it all away from him
So that’s another dilemma

Stressful to worry if anything happen now ,
I would have to live 8 more years until he is (14 ) not a minor anymore
To get his own $$ .
How can they do that ? What can I do ?

Men are from Mars ... Women are from Venus ... I stopped trying to figure out the goings on in the brains of women long ago, and have no plans to resume trying. That's a fool's game. But the average Joe worldwide, I think I understand well enough to say what I said in my OP ... most not "all" ... in the sense that if you surveyed every swingin' dick on the planet, I'd lay money on those five as the top five answers on the board. But, alas, I have been wrong before and I will be wrong again. But that's my belief. And it speaks more deeply to the point that despite differences of culture, ethnics, education, language, etc, etc ... on a basic level we men are all more similar than not.
