Dogs or cats?

Dogs or Cats

I prefer cats over dogs.   I used to have a Siamese Tabby cat named Tu-Tu for 8 years.   I had two cats named Scrappy and Fluffy.   They were Domestic Short-hair Cats.  I had Scrappy and Fluffy for 8 years in Dayton Ohio.   God Bless Cats because they are much cleaner than Dogs.  I love Dogs as well.  I had a dog named Midnight and Spot.

If I have iniquity and sin in my heart God will not hear me.  This is the truth because God does not like for Man to wrath.  In James 1:20 says For the unrighteousness of Man does not produce the righteousness of God.  I will admit that God is not happy whenever we are depressed.  I want to say that I suffer from Schizoid Affective Disorder and schizophrenia.  I have been diagnosed with a mental illness since Tuesday July 15, 1997.  I was admitted to the hospital for one week.  I started taking medicine for my behavior problems.  I also will admit that it has taken me 12 years to forgive my ex wife for cheating on me.  I had resentments very bad.  I know that I am not supposed to dwell on the past.  It is that she has made me so angry that I had to seek refuge in another State in the United States of America just to preserve my sanity.  This is the reason why I don’t argue with anyone else anymore in life.  Lord God Almighty God I am very sorry for my sins.  I am repenting right now for all of the wrongs that I have done in the past and present time.

Sponsorship By Anthony Hopkins AA/NA Recovery

Sponsorship By Anthony Hopkins

Good Day!! My name is Anthony H. and I am a grateful recovering alcoholic.  I would like to share my experience, strength, and hope regarding Sponsorship.  First of all, I would like to say that having a sponsor is the first and foremost when it comes to communication with other members. 

For me personally, I was court ordered into the fellowship by the Dayton, Ohio Montgomery Common Pleas Courts simply because I committed drug related crimes.  I also had a mental illness as well. 

 To be honest with all of you, having a sponsor is a person who is capable of assisting me and giving me advice; while in the program. 

 I know that my very first sponsor and I got into a fist fight because he was too demanding.  He really did not know how to be a sponsor and he got mad at me because I was in the streets too much for him.  Even though, I had completed the 12 Steps, I was a person who was a follower of the streets. 

 I was transitioning out of the street gang culture, and it was very hard at first, but I had to take care of myself and my own family.  Sponsors are people who are experienced in the AA Program. 

 I will admit that I am a Sponsor myself and the people who I am sponsoring are involved in street gangs. 

 There are 3 of them who had recently relapsed and I told them that I will be there for them after they are released from treatment.  I had advised and suggested to the men to attend meetings on a daily basis.  I also told these men that they have to avoid having a sexual relationship for one year. 

 They had to abstain from having a relationship with a woman.  These men had to get themselves together first and foremost.  I help them with things that pertain to Alcoholics Anonymous.  My suggestion to a newcomer in the Fellowship is to attend 90 meetings in 90 days, read the 164 pages of the AA Book. 

I also tell newcomers to also call me if they are interested in me as a sponsor.  I also tell newcomers that they will have to establish a relationship with a Higher Power or God.  My objective as a sponsor is to help each person and myself to get through the 12 Steps. 

 I can only advise and suggest to another fellow alcoholic.  I cannot tell them what to do.  I can show them a better way of life that is much better than drinking and getting high.  My name is Anthony H. from Dayton, Ohio and I am a grateful recovering alcoholic.  My topic is sponsorship. 

 My sobriety date is May 2, 1990. Thanks for allowing me to share.

Expectations & Human Relationships

Expectations & Human Relationships

This is a report concerning the expectations when it pertains to human relationships. First, we must ask ourselves a question. What are expectations when it pertains to human relationships? Human Relationships consists of communication both direct and indirect. This means nonverbal and verbal communication as well as association. When we are in close contact with each other, we are learning what the other person is like. We are learning their habits, personality, as well as the way they conduct themselves around others. It does not matter whether these people are in our family or on the street. The best ways to communicate with anyone is by introducing yourself to another person and see what kind of response you will receive. Second, another way of communicating to others is by letter or online. Although this is classified as maintaining a false relationship or a pen-pal, but sometimes this leads into a relationship that is direct eventually, if things turn out positive. However, in most cases, people get hurt because the other person’s expectations are different than yours.

What do we mean by expectations? Let’s look at what is the definition of an expectation. An expectation is a goal or a set standard that is derived from the behavior of people. Our expectations when it pertains to human relationships are to make sure that we are honest and truthful to the best of our ability. When we are honest and truthful to another person, we are doing God’s work. If we are content with our own actions, why worry. I am a person who does not worry what others think about me. It is God who has the final word. Man can make an opinion and this is it. Man cannot tell me what to do when I am an adult. I am supposed to love and respect my parents as well as my elders.
When it comes to people, I am supposed to love them as well. I am also supposed to exercise and use discretion at all times. My expectations when it comes to human relationships are to do my very best to assist the other person. This is by showing them that I can love them for the person that they are without hurting them in any way. I try my very best each day not to damage others no matter where they come from. No matter what their socio-economic background consists of, I am supposed to respect you. Life itself is really what you make of it. Learning how to respect others instead of hurting them because of what they have or do not have. It is not all about what possessions that you have as a person. It is all about how others receive you as a member of the human race.
You know that another person can disrespect you by calling you names that can damage you, but as long as you are breathing and living, you must still stand strong. Never allow the shallow expectations of others to cause you to crumble. Standing up for yourself and making a direct stand in your own life, makes you strong as a person. We all have rights as United States Citizens and we must use these rights to stand up for ourselves in a very positive way. We must learn to be proactive rather than reactive. Your expectations are just yours.

They cannot be transferred to another person unless they are your children. Your children alone are supposed to listen to their parents. Adults on the other hand have choices. This comes when we are selecting a significant other or a spouse in our lives. I cannot tell you to marry me and demand it. I can only persuade you. I can make a statement and ask you in a very nice way about marriage. This is your choice alone. I have made numerous of good and bad choices in my life. I cannot allow the choices that I have made in my own past to slow down my progress. My goals and expectations as a member of the human race are to become successful as a God Fearing Man.

I know that I must make good choices and my expectations when it comes to human relationships are to become spouse or significant other for that special female in my life. God will bless me with that special female who is a God Fearing Woman who has special qualities. She is that diamond that shines as soon as it has emerged from the ground. This diamond I will cherish forever. I will do everything in my power to keep this diamond in my possession for the rest of my entire existence. A solid Gold Bouillon is the same exact way. The way I personally feel from the inside out, is that I want a female who shares the same ideas just like me.

I like to converse with her on a daily basis and share about my entire day. There are player hating men out there who just do not want the next man to have a good African American woman. I am telling you the truth. Men are so jealous of each other that they need to mind their own business. This is a big problem in the African American Community, this is called jealousy. Men have always been jealous of the other and this is causing an outrage in our community when it comes to women.

What is a Mother?

What is a mother? This is a very important blog that pertains to the importance of motherhood. I started this blog off by asking this very important question because motherhood has numerous of definitions. What is a mother? A mother is a female who according to God is a helper or a companion for man. A female is the flesh of man; meaning that God has created woman from the womb of a man. The man himself whose name is Adam. Eve is her name; which was selected by Adam himself because she was created through the rib of him as he was sleeping. Next, the purpose of woman is to take care of children, and to become a helper for man. A mother is a person who is a doctor, teacher, counselor, and even a father to her own children; if their father is not around. According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, at least 55% of single parent households are conducted by women. This means that single women are taking care of their own children all by themselves. However, when I was a child, my mother raised 9 children all by herself. This means that my mother had to raise 6 boys and 3 girls all by herself. Although my stepfather was physically present inside of the home. It was my mother who was responsible for doing the majority of the work. I know that Mother’s Day really mean a whole to me as a man. I salute my mother on this very special day for always being there for me. I salute my grandmother who is also responsible for raising me as a little boy in Dayton, Ohio to the man that I am today. In addition, my mother and two grandmothers raised me to become a very responsible person. I still remember my eldest grandmother taking me to Bethel Church of God in Christ in Dayton, Ohio as a little boy for several years. My grandparents raised me as well as my mother who taught me a lot about on how to be responsible and assisting me with my siblings as well. They have instilled in me social and moral values that I need to become a mature adult. My mother and grandmothers are the three women who are elders who I give credit in my life when it comes to learning about the opposite sex. My aunt taught me how to develop a strong work ethic as well as my mother and grandmothers. The elder women in my family did not tolerate any foolishness. My grandmothers and mother always told me if I wanted something out of life, I had to work hard for it. Moreover, independence is something that my mother and female elders in my family have taught me. My mother always told me as a child to always work really hard at anything that you want out of life; without asking anyone for anything. I was also told to always try to get anything for myself first before seeking help from anyone else. Always rely on God and Jesus Christ for all of my help!!! My great aunt has always taught me a great deal about striving for success. I called my mother’s best friend my great aunt because she has always been a motivator when it comes to education.

She has earned two masters degrees from college and I really miss her whole lot. When I felt like giving up; she was always there to inspire me and motivate me so that I can stay positive and focus on the future. A mother is a leader, teacher, supporter, life coach, philosopher, police officer, and president in the family. My mother as well as all of the female elders in my family controlled the household. I thank God for my mother and my female elders in my family. I thank God for my mother because if it wasn’t for my mother I would not exist. When my own biological father had forsaken me; my mother stepped up to the plate and took over and raised me as well as the female elders in my family. I love you mom for being the person that you are in my life.

My mother is queen always in my life. She will always be the queen in my life as well as the woman who I will marry someday. I could not ask for no other person to be her but her. Happy Mother’s Day to each and every single woman who are mothers or those who have the potential to become mothers. This day is for your special day. Happy Mother’s Day!!!!!!

Sincerely,

Anthony Joseph Hopkins

Life &  Communication

Life and Communication

Life and Communication is very simple. What are we talking about here? Let’s start off by asking ourselves a very important question. What is life and how it relates to communication? Life is what you really make of things while you are living in the present. Life is your existence that you possess. The air that you breathe as well as flesh that you have. Communication is the language that you speak consisting of dialects as well as methods of words that one use to speak. Your voice that comes from your mouth is used as a means of communication itself.

Life and Communication are intertwined. They are go hand in hand. A communication and human relationship is used when men, women, and children share experiences about their lives to each other that make sense. Men, women, and children speak to each other as a means of sending and delivering messages to one another. When it pertains to this subject, our lives are shaped by the way we conduct ourselves others. It is our personality, disposition, and characteristics that we have that makes others either like or dislike you as a person. Life and Communication is not always easy. It is how you live your life that makes you successful inside of your environment or more apt towards failures. It is not always easy to think that you can obtain everything all in one day.

You will not obtain all that you need in one day. These things take time. All of these things that people who are possessive tend to hold onto their possessions and past will slowly lose it quickly. When one is possessive, they tend to become selfish in their own way. Men have a tendency to become this way especially when they want control and they are afraid of losing something that was already obtained. Men and women share these characteristics when it comes to possessiveness. Women on the other hand, tend to become possessive when it pertains to resources and finances. When it comes to material things, at least some of them, women are apprehensive of losing them very suddenly.

There are some who are reluctant to change their names when they are married. Marriage is not the end of the world ladies. It is a lifetime commitment between your spouse and significant other. Cohabitation on the other hand is a trial period in a relationship between a man and a woman. It is a feeling out process and an evaluation of one another in a relationship. This is done by direct and indirect observation. This is also a decision making process to determine if a man or a woman will be willing to share the rest of their lives with the person that they are living with.
Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with the person that you are cohabitating with? This is a very good question for men and women to ask each other while they are involved in their relationships. Traditional marriage is very serious. This is a lifelong decision that sometimes leads to hardship if a person makes a bad decision while they are cohabitating with their spouse or significant other. All couples will have some good and bad times. It is how you make the best of things through those good and bad times.

Life and Communication is splendid if you have the basis already established beforehand. You will have to examine all of your own resources first before you are able to get involved in any relationship with another person. It also starts off by being honest with each other from the onset. Telling the truth about yourself to another person is a good way of establishing better communication skills with that person that you are willing to share your life with. Always remember that deception inside of a relationship leads to failure. A relationship without trust and honesty from the very beginning leads to trouble.

Men and women must always share the truth to each other no matter what happens in their relationships with each other. Life and Communication also pertains to complete families. This is also shared with children so that they will have a basis to follow in their adult life. When children understand certain concepts about telling the truth and not hiding from others, this will help them to improve in their communication skills with others. Children who are productive and honest have successful lives. This comes from being involved in a healthy family who has healthy relationships.
This comes from learning how to speak to each other in pleasant ways. This also comes from learning how to become honest and truthful. Conflict of Interest comes from those who tend to deny or refuse the existence of others. This comes from anyone who has children or relationships with others and denies it from the very start. A conflict of interest can also come from an interest that is taken out of context. This pertains to businesses and partnerships that are established by others who make agreements and do not keep them. A technicality is something that is meaningful and relevant only in principle.

Phishing and The Bible

In Relation to the Bible:
“Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘Execute true justice, Show mercy and compassion Everyone to his brother. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, The alien or the poor. Let none of you plan evil in his heart Against his brother.”
Zechariah 7:9-10
This verse from Zechariah explains how we as people, not just Christians, should treat other people around us daily. God is telling us that we should be respectful and be truthful in the things we do in our daily lives. Not only should be true to others, but to ourselves as well. In that sense, phishing is not correct by any means based on this passage.
Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. “Be angry, and do not sin” : do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.
Ephesians 4:25-28
This second passage explains to us that we should not lie to one another. Phishing is deliberately misleading someone else for a person’s own personal gain and essentially lying. Even if we are angry at someone else, we should not commit sin to fulfill these thoughts towards others. These verses also explain that we should change and try to be better in what we do each day.

Phishing is absolutely wrong. Nowhere in its concept is it morally or ethically right and there are many laws against it. It is very wrong to go and trick someone into something especially with some who is not very familiar with computers. It is almost as if you are taking candy from a baby, it is not hard to do it, but they can often not do anything about it. Phishing targets people who have very little information or knowledge about computers and sucks them into giving them information, which is then accessed and used. It is human nature to feel bad for someone who is being taken advantage of, and often we do what we can to help them. Just because someone has little knowledge about something doesn’t mean someone should be able to take advantage of them and trick them into do something they would otherwise not do. Phishing is wrong, and anyone who is caught phishing should suffer consequences.

I want to inform everyone that over 1,000,000 websites are utilized by computer hackers each day. I was online using my Mocospace account early this morning and suddenly, I came across someone who I perceived as a woman chatting with me. It looked suspicious because when I looked on her profile, I found out that she was not logged on to the website. Usually, whenever a person is logged on to Mocospace, a green dot appears right next to their name. This occurred around 12:30AM. I checked the female’s profile, and it has been confirmed that she was not logged on to the site. She logged onto the website yesterday. I felt baffled and confused because I always thought that these women would be online. It turns out that the profile was hacked. Some tips that I have to offer all of you are as follows: Always check for the green dot to see if the person is officially on the website. Second, examine the profile to see how long the person was logged off. This is pertaining to mocospace. As far as Blackplanet.Com is concerned, always check the profile to see how long they have been logged off or on. On the average, most of the female profiles are hacked online because the hackers themselves usually go undetected. Most of the countries that have this kind of activity is Africa, India, Jamaica, Cuba, Brazil, Kenya, Nigeria, and London England. Most of your hackers are usually between the ages of 18-35. There are a very small percentage of the profiles that the hackers have are cloned. They are duplicated and the pictures themselves are copied by the hackers themselves. Hackers have a tendency to prey on innocent men who are online between the hours of 9:00PM-6:00AM. Most of the activity occurs between the hours of midnight and 5:00AM. Computer hackers who are living in other countries have a 7 to 12 hour start on Americans who are online. The time change makes the difference. When I got scammed 4 years ago, I did not know it. The scammers were using women’s profiles on Blackplanet, Yahoo, Facebook, and Twitter. Some of your computer hackers use profiles of younger women between the ages of 18-40. The profiles themselves are randomely selected. This is serious because an average man would think that he is talking to his female or male friend; when they are talking to a computer hacker and data thief. Data thieves usually collect social security numbers of innocent people and as soon as your information is online, it is collected from the website and in some cases, a third party. I am happy that they have Bible verses that pertain to my situation. In most cases, it is best to examine the information.

Which activities make you lose track of time?

Which activities make you lose track of time?

Which activities make me lose track of time?  I usually sleep during the day until 2:00pm in the afternoon.   This is simply because I have been taking my medication 18 pills in the morning and 13 pills at night.  Another thing that I used to do for several years online and that is sending money to online scammers and computer hackers on a weekly basis for a total of 7 years.   While at work, I used to look at pornography everyday for 8 years.  I have been watching television at night until 2:30am.  I will admit that have been taking my time cleaning up my apartment and taking a bath.   I have been writing essays since 1994.  I have at least 13,500 essays and blogs that I have typed during college and writing a book that I have published myself on July 2, 2000.  The book was called The Best of Anthony Joseph Hopkins.   It was 150 pages of information about my personal experiences in Social Work.   I have been writing for 30 years now.   My first manuscript was What is A Street Gang & Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.  My parents didn’t know that I was involved with street gangs in Michigan and Ohio.   The Sudden Infant Death Syndrome was my Cousin Michael Lewis Jr.  He died at the age of 8 months while laying in his own crib.  My family members were distraught about the death of my Cousin Michael Lewis Jr.   It seems like everything that happens in the family affected me personally.   My close friend Theron’s Father got killed by his own wife in 1973.  My parents lived in separate homes.   My life has been filled with ups and downs during the past 55 years now.   Currently, I have Jesus Christ as my personal Savior right now.   I am very sorry for missing Church during the past 4 months now.   I am taking 31 pills on a daily basis for the past 28 years now.   Sitting down and doing absolutely nothing makes me lose track of time.

Men, Women, and Criminal Prosecution

Women who are on the run have a tendency to hide with other criminals themselves. Over 50% of the women who are captured in the United States are with a significant other that is not married to them. Oftentimes, women are hiding inside of other countries and cities just to avoid getting prosecuted. The statistics are according to the United States Department of Justice. Recent statistics also reveal that women who are on the run are around males with an extensive criminal record themselves. Women who are on the run even for minor offenses are more than likely to hide in other cities and deny the existence of their crimes. Both men and women are in denial when it comes to even having an involvement with the person that they are accused of hurting in the first place. Finally, what are the alternatives for these criminals? The answer is getting them to justice by getting the general public involved. Also, the media is an outlet when it comes to assisting in the efforts to capture criminals. The assistance of the media, law enforcement, and the general public is important. There is a sense of reluctance when it pertains to the general public getting involved in capturing criminals. Men and women alike who are responsible for committing crimes against humanity need to face justice. Women are more inclined to turn themselves in to law enforcement because they feel safe and secure and relieved because at least the burden is completely off of their backs. The men that are with them are aiding and preventing these women from facing the people that they have wronged personally. The men are involved because they are harboring criminals. The men who are involved in criminal activities tend to be more nonchalant than women. Men are more apathetic, discontent, unconcerned for personal safety, and are reluctant to deal with their problems. Men are not cognizant of the circumstances and in some cases, are not aware themselves that they have committed a crime. There are times, they talk about it boastfully: I am talking about men: as well as women, but they refuse to deal with their problems. The men and women who scammed me have already been reported to law enforcement. I have been scammed by criminals who were located in Accra Ghana, a city in Western Africa. I was responsible for sending almost 17,000 in Western Union Funds to people that I did not know! The criminals are responsible for using women’s pictures and profiles illegally each day. This is a crime in progress. The criminals who scammed me have not been captured. The criminals who are using women’s profiles are located worldwide. They also obtain credit cards from their victims on the internet. There are over 1,000,000 websites that there criminals use who scammed me. Their favorite websites are Facebook, Myspace, Mocospace, Yahoo, Blackplanet, MeetBlack People, and Match.Com. The phone numbers that online scammers and hackers use are private and or unavailable. This online crime happens on a daily basis.
