The return of a missing wallet: How one honest act changed my career

Found a missing wallet

Money is very tempting, after all, because of money, everyone is struggling in this crazy world to provide security and stability for their family. Therefore, if you find someone’s wallet, full of money (between 250 and 300 Euros), will you find the owner to give it back to him, or will you keep it because you think God has blessed you?

In the year 2001, I was employed as a cleaner and dishwasher in the company running both a restaurant and a cinema (Cartoons Cinema and Restaurant) in the city of Antwerp. During the cleaning hours in the three cinema halls, I found many items such as mobile phones, umbrellas, jackets, and missing wallets.

Whatever item I find, I keep it for weeks. Sometimes the owners come for the found items, and at times, they don’t come. When such things happen, I will inform the management about it, and the items will be kept. I have three mobile phones to return to their owners. The delights I found in their eyes encouraged me to be more faithful in my work.

Within my three years of service, I found three missing wallets. There was one which contained a specified amount of money (about 150 Euros), credit cards, and the code digits to cash, assuming the wallet went into the hands of a criminal. Because of one of her documents, I knew where she stayed. I went to her house, but she wasn’t there.

After work, I went to her house again, but she wasn’t there. The third time, she wasn’t still in the house, but this time, I saw a police van with two policemen in it right in front of the house. I approached the van, explained, and handed over the wallet to them. I have a lot to do, and being in her house three times without finding her was consuming my precious time.

One of the policemen gave me a thumbs-up, pleased over what I did, and seemed more surprised when he saw the code digits card, which any criminal could have used to cash out the woman’s money from her savings account. I was at work when I had a visitor. Why is this lady looking for Joel Savage? My mind was full of thoughts.

She came to me and stretched out her hand to shake. According to her, she was the one I gave her wallet to the police. “Thanks for bringing back my wallet. 

In fact, I have been very busy. You saw the police van parked in front of my house because my neighbour living upstairs has committed suicide, and the police are there to take the body,” she told me. The lady again visited me, but this time with a gift.

I am a lucky man? Why does every wallet I find always have a lot of money inside? The second wallet I found, evil came into my mind to take all the money, close to about four hundred Euros, and throw the wallet away. 

Then I asked myself – why should I take this money and throw away the valuable documents in this wallet? Whether a foreigner or a national, applying for documents costs money, and it takes over three weeks or even a month to apply for a new document.

I refused to listen to my devilish instincts and went to the man’s house to give him his wallet in a neighborhood called Kontich. When I knocked on the door and he saw me with his wallet, I understood the meaning of that surprise in his eyes. 

I am a black man, and he probably never thought a black man could be that kind. He drove me back to work in his posh car. The following week, he came to see me with an envelope. I knew what was inside. I thanked him without taking the money from him.

I had no idea that the third wallet I would  find would be a ‘miraculous wallet.’ Apart from the substantial amount of Euros, it has foreign currencies, including dollars. I couldn’t find the address of the owner, but there was a list of telephone numbers in it. 

I began to call the numbers, and the third number hit the jackpot. The woman knows the owner of the wallet. She, therefore, came together with the owner to collect the wallet from me.

Both the owner and the woman became my good friends. We went out several times to drink and eat together, without knowing that the woman would be my saviour in the future. Three years after working in the restaurant and the cinema, I lost my job because of new management and changes at the restaurant and the cinema.

I am a physically strong man, but I wept bitterly on the day I lost my job. Without any knowledge of where to begin or find a new job, I called the woman who came with the man to collect the third wallet and told her what had happened. She assured me not to worry, promising to find me a job very soon at the place where she works.

Just two weeks after losing my job, she fulfilled her promise, and I got a job at the administration where she works, and for fifteen years, I worked in a school until my pension. Kindness is never thrown away; in fact, it brings reward.

What surprises me most is that all these things I did, none appeared in any of the Belgian newspapers, but trust me, readers or Belgians would have known who Joel Savage was if hunger had driven me to the supermarket to steal a loaf of bread to eat. That would have surely appeared in the newspapers.

This is why if you sow a good seed, you’ll reap a good fruit, and if you sow a bad seed, you’ll reap a bad fruit.

  

Don’t envy the celebrity spotlight: Embrace the power of your authentic self

 

There are many celebrities in prison

Many people aspire to be famous because they receive special attention, are greeted with red carpets at events, and, above all, have millions of fans and admirers. They are also wealthy, so they can travel anywhere in the world. 

With that said, I have a story to share with you. There is a saying in Ghana, where I was born, that says you should never wish to be someone because you see the person happy and wealthy, since not everything that glitters is gold. That is accurate.

 

I wish to convey to my friends or readers that, although many people believe that being a celebrity is all about money, fame, jewels, could afford everything they want and live a luxurious life, being a famous or a celebrity may be a difficult life. 

Everything they do is open to public scrutiny, and every decision they make is rigorously examined. Celebrities are actually followed when they go grocery shopping, and many of them are unable to walk out on their own without bodyguards. This is not a happy life.

 

This is the worst thing that can happen to a famous person. Many earn millions of dollars, attend film premieres, educational and entertainment events, and live in fancy homes and cars that make others wish they could live like them. 

I would like to know why celebrities commit suicide if being a star brings all the enjoyment one could ever want. Why do famous people end up homeless? Why do famous people shoplift? Most importantly, why do famous people develop drug addictions?

FEMALE CELEBRITIES - WHY MANY DON'T PUT ON UNDERWEAR?

It will be far easier for a camel to pass through the eye of the needle than for celebrities to tell their fans that they are unhappy. Some people are unable to sleep at all and are dependent on sleeping pills, which eventually start to affect them. 

Celebrities receive invitations and participate in activities throughout the duration of their lives; as a result, many appear older than the average poor person. Many are forced to undergo facial surgery, which frequently harms them, because they are afraid of seeming elderly or old, since their followers mean a lot to them.

 

Just be who you are; life is not a competition, therefore, don’t compete with anyone. Although the life of a celebrity can be a veritable paradise when viewing the stars on screens or in glossy magazines, not all parts of the world are green. 

Though many don't pray, have nothing to do with God, or the Bible, when they run into issues with unforeseen turns of events, they frequently ask God, "Why me?" God is spirit; therefore, if you worship in truth, that spirit will give you happiness and rest.

Being rich is not a crime as long as you work hard for it, but you must realize that money can’t always buy true happiness or genuine love. Kindness is what makes life happy, and you should never treat people the way you wouldn’t like anyone to treat you. That is the key to contentment.

Children are losing relationship with the world

 

Parents should constantly be nearby to talk to their children about how things are going because they deal with many issues that they cannot express.

When I was a child in a world with less impact from technology, I was indeed a happy child. My parents weren’t rich, we didn’t go to the playing fields or amusement parks, and we didn’t have toys to play with, yet we were the happiest children, as long as we saw how our parents struggled to provide our needs and make us happy as they pushed to their limits to give us the education we required. There was nothing like mobile telephones, yet communication with our parents never failed. 

  

However, despite the advances in technology, thousands of children's games that can be subscribed to on the internet or played at home, and the birth of collectively amazing mobile phones, many children worldwide are still miserable or unhappy. We need to find out the reason children, despite being in good homes, feel insecure and even go as far as attempting suicide. What wrongs have the parents of most children done to see their children taking their lives? 

  

Money, indeed, can’t buy happiness, but love, peace, and a beautiful world are things that a child needs, but they are hard to find. When children love their parents, but the parents divorce or go their separate ways, it affects the children. A mother can have custody of her children for a week, or vice versa, but the children will never be happier than when they are living together with their parents. Life becomes hard for children when they experience the separation or divorce of their parents at an early age. 

  

History is familiar with pandemics; however, the impact of COVID-19 took its toll on both adults and children. Apart from the lockdown, many lost relatives, brothers, and sisters. This bitter experience pushed many children into depression, and even though the pandemic poses less of a threat today, its impact has been devastating on children. It’s not a child’s wish to become a drug addict; all of them today on the streets or struggling to kick drugs at rehabilitation centers have a story to share. 

  

We can’t underestimate the impact of war on children. Whenever there is war, it affects everyone, including children. On television, when children watch other children as victims, it affects them psychologically. As children, we all hope to see our parents after having a meaningful life on earth; we take care of them and give them a befitting burial after they pass on. However, in today’s world, mothers and fathers are more involved with their children, as death among children and teenagers is increasing.

  

There are many ways for parents to find out the problems of their children to tackle the issue immediately before it gets out of hand. When a child stays in his or her room for a long time, skipping breakfast or lunch, that should be a concern to the parents, as something is wrong. It might not be a big situation, probably only a friendship issue, but at this point, the parent might try as much as possible to show love and give confidence to the child that there is always a bright future for a young one along the path. 

  

Sometimes, the problems would be from the school. School is a venue where many teenagers feel secure and insecure, depending on how friendly the atmosphere is. Parents should always try to find out how the child is doing at school; if there is a problem, that child will never hide anything from you. Once your child speaks to a mother or father about school problems, the parent should immediately contact the school authorities to solve those issues before the child contemplates committing suicide. 

 

When something goes wrong with a child or their life, the parents are held accountable. Every parent should keep this in mind to maintain a relationship with their kids. 

NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY MANY PEOPLE COMMIT SUICIDE

Don't blame people that commit suicide, blame the dishonest people that make their lives a hell

I am a very strong person, therefore, many times; I do ask myself, what kinds of problems often push people to commit suicide?

 

Because I know very well that there is no problem, no matter how big or small, whether has a solution or not, can force me to kill myself.

 

However, after a certain period of time, based on my own experience with Google and politicians, including that of the United States and Belgium governments, I clearly understood the reason many are not interested to live in this world any longer.

 

If I commit a crime, I will be sent to prison but Google abused its power and violated my rights by destroying our genuine health blog that exposes the US and Belgium governments, the World Health Organization, and Centers for Disease Control about medical crimes committed against humanity, especially, black people, with impunity.

 

Decades after European countries lost their colonies in Africa, it still hurts them today, therefore, their revenge is to decimate the continent with man-made diseases, such as HIV, Aids, Ebola, Lassa fever, tuberculosis, etc, and many others, yet, they don't like to be exposed or to talk about them.

 

African-Americans have been killed through man-made diseases and contaminated vaccines in large numbers, while many black people in Africa have also perished through biological weapons.

 

In reality, the truth is what makes one a patriotic person but today, lies and deception rule the world, therefore, your truth makes one an enemy. You will be treated like a criminal just because you are not interested to live that deceptive life.

 

The world is now so dangerous and full of lies to the extent that life is meaningless to many people today, the reason suicide has increased more than before. I can't imagine being ruled by political criminals known as politicians today.

It's very disgusting and sheer wickedness knowing the type of people we have in politics today, causing pain, hardships, and suffering to other people for their selfish gains, through man-made diseases and continue to let the world know that bats, primates, monkeys, bushmeat, poverty, etc, are responsible.

As for me, I am too strong to entertain any suicidal thoughts because life is precious to me; however, the blood of the innocent people politicians have killed will always remain indelible in their hands.

 

Subjecting people to suffering because of the truth even makes them tougher than they can, I am happy to be one of them.

The Suicide Of 30,177 American Soldiers In Afghanistan Forces Government To Call Out Its Soldiers

 

A flag-draped coffin honoring a soldier who has served the nation

As the USA is now on to its final withdrawal after waging a war against the Afghan Taliban (AT) for 20 years, the world has been perplexed as to why a superpower, the US, has been forced to flee from Afghanistan, and that too, after negotiating a dialogue with the same people against whom it had waged a war.

It has now been almost a year since I wrote an article in CounterCurrents on July 22, 2020, in which I elaborated on the waning of the power of the US. In the same piece, I had cited a report, published by the US National Center for Biotechnology Information, which had given the most crucial data to have forced the then US President Donald Trump to enter into a 14-month gradual withdrawal, which is to end on September 11, 2021.

 

The report had informed that Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD) had devastated the US Army to no end! To quote from it again, ‘Estimates of PTSD prevalence rates among returning service members vary widely across wars and eras.

 

In one major study of 60,000 Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, 13.5% of deployed and non-deployed veterans screened positive for PTSD, while other studies show the rate to be as high as 20% to 30%. As many as 500,000 U.S. troops who served in these wars over the past 13 years have been diagnosed with PTSD. This is what forced the US to cool its heels.

 

Now, yet another damning report has arrived, which proves an answer to the most vexed question as to why the US was made to retreat and vacate Afghanistan after bludgeoning it with the best imaginable weaponry, trillions of dollars, and support from NATO, and against what was called the ragtag army of AT!

 

This is the secret that the US and its entire state apparatus tried to hush for 20 years, and now all the beans have been spilled and skeletons tumbled out of the cupboard. A 35-page report from the Watson Institute at Brown University, US, released on June 21, has disclosed that the main reason why the US could not fathom staying longer in Afghanistan was due to a stupendous rise in suicides!

 

The report said, ‘Suicide rates among the US public have been increasing for the past twenty years, but among active military personnel and veterans of the post-9/11 wars, the suicide rate is even higher, outpacing average Americans.

 

The “post-9/11 wars” refers to ongoing U.S.-led military operations around the world that grew out of President George W. Bush’s “Global War on Terror” and the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. This paper estimates that 30,177 active duty personnel and veterans of the post-9/11wars have died by suicide, significantly more than the 7,057 service members killed in the post-9/11 war operations.

 

The world is now to analyze through this devastating report that it is the rate of suicides that forced the US not to further blow its army men into the furnace and eventually come back home. If this figure of 30,177 US Army men committing suicide is not fudged, which surely it would be, as the US will never bring out the real figures, but even if this figure is contextualized, it is a clear indication that the US has never lost its army men in suchlarge numbers. 

Perhaps, this is the worst ever war that the US has ever fought, in all the centuries of wars it has waged around the world. Whereas, on the contrary, there is a probable zero percentage of suicides amongst AT.

 

The researchers of tomorrow would reveal what made AT stand to their nerves, and that too, against the mightiest of armies in the entire history of mankind, if not for their motivation and perseverance! And, also in its stride, keeping conformity with the old dictum that Afghanistan has always been the graveyard of empires. Be that the once British Empire, or the superpower Soviet Union, or now the US.

 

It is a larger-than-known fact of US life as to how much the US invests in its health industry and, more particularly, in its stress management. Imagine if the US did not invest so much in stress management; this figure would have quadrupled. Interestingly, this figure of 30,177 deaths does not include those US army men who died in combat or even those of the private militias owned by the likes of Erik Prince, who runs Blackwater, etc.

 

Why would the US army men lay down their lives on their own? Perhaps because they may have found the war as useless and goalless, or else there is no point of comparison between a US soldier, saddled with the most imaginable expensive gadgets and ammunition, in combat with an AT in not even proper shoes.

 

China, by hosting the most powerful AT delegation, has given a signal to accept the AT government. Now, Russia is planning to come forward with the same. An article in the Financial Times on July 27, 2021, suggests, ‘Russia seeks to forge ties with the Taliban as US troops leave Afghanistan.’ Zamir Kabulov, the Special Representative of Russian President Vladimir Putin, described the Taliban’s advance as a security boost for Russia.

 

He also announced that China, Russia, Pakistan, and the US are to meet on August 11 as an ‘extended troika’ to discuss the Afghan situation, but China may also be putting to the US the issue of the latest blast at the Dasu Dam (KPK in Pakistan), in which 9 of its engineers were killed.

 

China had conducted a joint investigation with Pakistan, and the report has been handed to Washington. China is said to have been extremely angry over the killing of its engineers. Unfortunately, India is nowhere near this formula of ‘extended troika,’ as Zamir Kabulov had lately said that India does not have any influence on AT, reported TOI on July 22.

 

Meanwhile, as fighting between Ghani forces and AT escalates, it is reported that on July 31, Ghani forces attacked Ariana Afghan Specialty Hospital in Helmand, where AT was getting their fighters treated. 

The worst part is that the Ghani forces attacked it using the helicopters provided by India. ‘ An aircraft provided by India to the Afghan National Security and Defence Force (ANSDF) has been used to bomb a hospital in Helmand province of Afghanistan, the Taliban alleged on Saturday, calling the attack a ‘war crime,’ the Deccan Herald reported on July 31.

 

The Ariana Hospital bombing seems to have disadvantaged India more, which has already vacated its Kandahar, Herat, and Jalalabad consulates. India’s growing worry is that a pro-China and a pro-Pakistan government, supported by Russia, is in the making in Afghanistan, and it is here where India needs to streamline its polity, particularly more so regarding China, which has been constantly interfering lately inside Indian states bordering it.

Slavery Lasted 400 years, So Why The Protests Against COVID 19 Lockdown For Some Few Days?

 

Protesters against coronavirus lockdown in the Netherlands

The coronavirus lockdown is provoking many people that want their freedom around the world, despite the high rate of COVID 19 infections in recent times.  Hence, many people worldwide, including the Netherlands, not satisfied with the lockdown rules to prevent the spread of the deadly coronavirus, took to the streets protesting.

There is no one who doesn’t like the taste of sweet freedom because as humans, people are not interested in laws and rules that will confine them to one place. Frankly speaking, freedom is more effective than any medicine as it prevents loneliness, depression, any psychological problems, including the tendencies of committing suicide.

 

Even animals and birds like freedom, since many are fed up being kept in the zoo. Even in a cage, a bird may seem happy whistling and hopping around, yet open the cage for that bird and you will see the full force of flight that bird will be applied to escape into the air without looking back.

 

There was much unrest through Europe, including London, over the lockdown. In Eindhoven, one of the cities in Holland, protesters set fires and threw missiles at the police against the lockdown measures, while the police fought to control the situation with tear gas and water cannons, leading to the arrest of at least 55 people.

 

Many times, I keep wondering if people that have never suffered slavery, racism, colonial brutalities, the Apartheid form of government, and the handicapped by deliberate infection of diseases, understand the situation of people that have experienced such tragedies and bitter experiences of black history.

 

Africans were captured and sold as slaves in the most degrading and horrifying manner that lasted 400 years before abolition, yet today we are witnessing carnage, destruction, crimes against the authorities because they want people to obey the laws implemented to avoid the spread of the coronavirus.

 

How sincere and thoughtful are we as human beings? You, in life many don’t care about other people's sufferings because they are not the victims. Selfishness, greed, lies, and hypocrisy are some of the ailments that shut down the brain of human beings to be considerate to think about the well-being of other people.

 

If black people have survived slavery, Apartheid horrors, and colonial atrocities that lasted for decades, why some people always want to break the rule and find it difficult to survive a lockdown for some few days to prevent the spread of a disease that will benefit us?

The truth is in life if you haven't been through certain difficulties, you wouldn't have the experience to accept certain rules for your own benefit. People often don't care about the tragedies that fall on other people but the reality is whatever goes around, always comes around.

The situation about the coronavirus is hard to understand. We don't see people getting ill or falling on the streets, yet we hear of people dying each day by COVID 19. Whether what those health experts are telling us is true or false, we must obey the rules and see what happens

THERE ARE TWO WAYS OF LIFE AHEAD OF YOU, CHOOSE ONE

Bad decisions will give you the experience to make good decisions. photo credit: Steemit.com

.

According to the scriptures, God created man in His own image, which means each one of us has a Godly-like spirit in us to determine what is good and what is bad. Based on these Scriptures, we are able to understand the principles of love and care to treat others the way we wouldn't like to be treated.

However, we have a different world today because of greed, power, and the thirst for supremacy to dominate others. This has made the world the most dangerous place to live in. There is no peace anywhere, and each day, everyone lives in fear and anxiety.

 

There was a time when adults were known to have among the highest suicide rates, but today, the number of children committing suicide is increasing daily. Why are children no longer interested in living in this world? There are many reasons.

Many children have depressive symptoms during this coronavirus pandemic.

 

The road of life has made it simple for us: you either have to "enter through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction," or choose the small gate and narrow road that leads to life, but only a few can find it. 

 

Therefore, when you are on the road of life and you meet the joined ways, which one do you take, the left or the right? If bad decisions give one the experience to make good decisions, why do we still have grown-up monsters among humanity as politicians today?

 

When we were children, our parents were our guides in life because we were not able to decide what was good for us or bad for us. We were, therefore, educated both at school and at home to be good people in society, yet the world is full of evil, horrifying pure evil.

 

We are seeing more violence against women, crimes against humanity, and the killing of innocent people daily throughout the world. Why are some politicians so cruel? To whom do they belong, Jezebel, Satan, Beelzebub, or another entity?

 

Crime can never be eliminated from society, but it can be reduced, and this can be done by understanding the needs of your brothers and sisters and giving them the necessary help they need. 

 

Everyone will die; no one lives forever, so if it's wrong to take someone's life and those who commit crimes serve time in prisons, why are politicians and scientists who create biological weapons to kill innocent people never prosecuted?

 

The failure of governments to put elites behind bars for the crimes they commit against humanity is one of the rewards we are reaping today. 

Until the world rises against their leaders, demands questions, and puts them behind bars for their clandestine crimes against humanity, for 20 to 30 years, the world will never know what peace is and be free from man-made diseases. 

Some of our leaders are seen as politicians, but they are not humans; they are pure evil, like King Leopold II of Belgium, Hitler of Germany, and Idi Amin of Uganda, Africa.

Happy New Year, Even Though The COVID 19 Will Follow Us To 2021

With faith, hope, and courage, we shall cross over to see the new year of 2021

Every New Year is always accompanied by many events, including sadness, tragedies, and happiness. The year 2020 has been a very terrible year, as we began with a terrific impact of COVID-19 from Wuhan, China. Unfortunately, the pandemic is still following us into the new year of 2021.

As we all know, apart from natural calamities due to geographical reasons, the majority of global suffering is caused by man. Politics, based on power, corrupts the minds of politicians to do whatever they wish, whether it's good or bad, mostly affecting innocent people.

The chase for money in society has also increased violence and crimes, taking its toll on people, leading to poor health, depression, and suicides. 

The devastation of the coronavirus has affected many businesses and the economies of many countries, causing many worldwide to lose their jobs. Many have lost their loved ones to COVID-19 and, therefore, live in fear and anxiety. 

However, if you are living now, you are ready to cross to the new year, which means that God loves you. Yes, the invincible supreme ruler, Jehovah, Yahweh, who is mightier than every rock and ammunition, loves you.

Despite the impact of the coronavirus, you’ve made it to this point, ready to crossover to the new year; therefore, what are your hopes, dreams, and aspirations? I strongly believe that your dreams can be a reality in the year 2021.

 

How prepared are you to improve the sour relationship with the members of your family? How prepared are you to change your bad habits to enjoy your professional career? How prepared are you to be humble and respectful, to get the right gentleman or lady as your partner?

 

How prepared are you to make this world a better place for our present and future generations in a world where many think violence, crime, and terrorism are the only solutions for common problems? We can’t remake the world, but our good deeds can change it.

 

There is every reason to be happy among those who made it this far. Your success, happiness, destiny, and good health are in your own hands. Don’t commit any crime when you know that you will be punished and also affect others.

Don’t live in the realms of destructive drugs when you know they may affect your health. Instead of blaming others for the destruction of the world, we should take it upon ourselves to restore our nation’s dignity. 

The problem is that most people find it hard to overcome their fears because they’re part of who they are. That’s actually a mistake. “No one drinks medicine on behalf of a sick person,” a Ghanaian proverb, meaning your happiness is in your own hands.

 

At times, sadness, loneliness, and depression make us feel miserable and scared because we don’t know what tomorrow may bring, but if you are not dead, then there is always hope for you. Take your time to look for it.

If the blind can play the piano, someone without hands can open the chapters of a book with his toes or tongue to read, and birds can survive both the winter and summer, then why do you have to grumble when you are very close to seeing the new year?

There are many opportunities there for you. Let God be your guide to choose wisely, and let your hopes and dreams be a reality in the year 2021.

“Finally, brothers, rejoice, aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.” 2 Corinthians

WHEN CRIMES BECOME THE NORM, THE TRUTH BECOMES AN ENEMY

Joel Savage during and after the coronavirus lockdown

Joel Savage is a writer who hasn't committed any crime, but, because of the truth, is banned from many social media websites. I am beginning to understand why many don't have the desire to live in this world any longer; thus, the suicide rate has increased rapidly in various parts of the world.

 

The US 'Suicide Statistics' reveal that in the year 2016 alone, out of 38,658 people that died, 22,938 died by suicide, and 14,415 were gun-related violence. Why? The answer is as simple as ABC because we live in a world where crimes have become the norm in politics. 

Politicians put criminals behind bars, while they commit serious crimes against humanity with impunity. We need to ask ourselves certain questions: Why will America, a country that preaches about democracy, persuading everyone to follow this 'almighty form' of government, claiming to be the richest superpower and the land of opportunity, record such a large number of suicides in just a year?

When I was a child, I was brought up in a way that I was punished for mistakes or wrongs I made. I received punishment for doing everything contrary to the principles in the Holy Bible, including laziness. I thought my father was a bad man, but I never knew that he was giving me a type of training that would benefit me today.

Today, I have lived in Belgium for twenty years without a crime and have written eight books through hard work, yet nobody knows Joel Savage. But surely, many will know about this writer if hunger drives me to the supermarket to steal a loaf of bread to eat.

Because that will appear on the front-page news for everyone to know about the 'famous bread thief who claims to be a writer,' but through the power of the highest—Jehovah—my family and I will not go hungry for me to steal bread at any supermarket.

I strongly believe that many people worldwide who have never had good training are those who have become monsters, killers, liars, and deceivers without any remorse in our society today. And it's a shame people praise, support, and aid crime because they believe that crime is a norm; therefore, it's needed in every establishment, including politics and health institutions.

At times, I wonder why someone can easily become an enemy and even be killed just because they live for the truth. If you begin to think of such serious problems emanating from our society without a solution, you may either develop a psychological problem or choose to take your own life because you are not happy to live any longer in this miserable and wicked world.

Blacks are treated like unwanted animals and killed like cockroaches in the United States of America.

I don't need to be a pastor to preach what I write to the congregation in the pulpit, but if the preacher can preach what I write about without being arrested or accused of doing anything wrong, why are my articles seen as a threat to some governments, and why do they do everything in their power to declare war on them or suppress information on our blogs?

This is what happens in any ailing society, like that of the United States of America, where serious crimes are part of America's constitution because they are considered the norm. Many now care about money; therefore, money is everything to them. If you don't have it, you are not considered a human being.

Many choose to be musicians, engineers, artists, drivers, teachers, mechanics, etc., and they excel in their professions. I choose to be a writer; therefore, my articles are my legacy. I will die and leave this world, and the authorities and governments that find them a threat will either delete or push them under the carpet because I am not yet dead, but it's happening right under my nose.

It's a waste of precious time to fight the truth and suppress information because it will always come back to haunt you. For decades, the US government, the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control, and the European governments have been lying about AIDS and Ebola biological weapons.

They claim bats, monkeys, and poverty are responsible because it's Africa or the Black man that suffers most. Today, the coronavirus biological weapon has come back to haunt them. That is life; this is a lesson to those who think they have the power to make vulnerable people miserable. Whatever a man sows, the same he shall reap.

This is what I write, and how long can you hate me because I don't write what you want me to? I have said it loud and clear that I PREFER TO LIVE POOR BY THE TRUTH THAN TO BE RICH IN CORRUPTION.

I will take the opportunity to thank my hundreds of readers across the globe who still find me to read what I write, despite the suppression of information on this blog that has completely reduced my visibility in search engines. 

Finally, I thank the owners of the websites interested in the truth, which allow me to post my articles regularly on their platforms. May God continue to bless your family, and be abundantly blessed for the truthful part you have chosen. Happy New Year in advance.

Why Many Are Not Happy To Live In This World Any More

 

Many children have depressive symptoms during this coronavirus pandemic

Everyone knows that life is very tough and on many occasions, our mind tells us that poverty, hardships, loneliness, depression, lack of money and other difficulties are some of the causes that often escalate one tendency of committing suicide or the desire of not willing to live in this world any longer.

However, observing day after day, we see that people of various classes, estates, and professions such as rich people, scientists, engineers, priests, students, celebrities, bankers, and children, appear to make news headlines for committing suicide. What are they cause to such a terrible thing?

Death is inevitable, everyone will die, whether black, white, Chinese, Indian, Japanese, Christian, or Muslim, but the important question is why many don't want to live in this world any longer and often kill themselves before their time? I have asked this same question a number of times but I can't stop asking.

There are many facing families, marriage, and financial problems. Some of these problems can easily be fixed but others are not easy, especially, if the problems take their toll on the person, affecting him psychologically. For example, I observed the psychological impact of the coronavirus on many students and children.

During the highest peak of the coronavirus, the shutdown of schools, social distance observation, and rules to prevent the spread of the disease shocked many people, especially, the younger generation who has no idea of what a biological weapon or quarantine is but are forced to follow the rules.

Just imagine a student who has been studying at school, interacting with his teacher, suddenly finds himself in what is called distance learning by the computer, learning to pass his exams. While on the television or radio each day, students are psychologically affected by the impact of the coronavirus on a killing spree.

As a matter of fact, many may have killed themselves in this hard time of coronavirus because of fear and its impact, and probably, their death may be attributed to the coronavirus. It is very easy for someone that has committed suicide to be said killed by the coronavirus because it's not easy to carry out an autopsy at this very moment.

How do you think of a child's mental state if he or she has lost both parents by coronavirus? The child can never be the same and if care is not taken she might commit suicide if nobody is by her daily to give her some comfort. 

The impact of the coronavirus has quickly become a kind of epidemic threatening the entire society in general and each of every one in particular. What safety can politicians assure citizens if they are responsible for this deadly virus that has killed thousands across the globe?

As a matter of fact, politicians have to do more to save lives because we are living in a critical situation that by the time the coronavirus subsides, life will never be the same. 

Let the authorities be aware that if many people, especially children, don't want to live in this world any longer, then it's their fault and I will always continue to hold them responsible for this terrible pandemic that has hit the world.

The Disappearance Of The Truth In Politics And Medical Science

The world has to pay for the lies and deceptions in the fields of politics and medical science today

The establishing of peace, security, and the protection of people depend on politics, while medical science which encompasses treatment is very important for health. Unfortunately, both two subjects have deviated from the path of truth to lies and deceptions.

"The truth is not a commodity sold in the shop but only a few people can afford it." In today's world, the truth doesn't matter any longer in anything, including politics, science, and health matters. Simple truth, they say but is the truth really simple?

The Bible says, "From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been subjected to violence, and violent people have been raiding it." The same violent people are fighting against the truth to establish lies and violence in our societies.

Throughout the period of the Old Testament to the New Testament, all the good people, including Jesus Christ, that chose the path of the truth, suffered dearly for it because the truth is like an arrow that pierces through the flesh of evildoers.

The truth burns so hot like acid, so many are afraid of it. The truth doesn't give an award, it will rather make you a public enemy number one. The truth will let you lose all your good friends you thought they love you and the truth may likely push you to commit suicide.

Once the Dutch microsurgeon and former professor at the University of Maastricht, Johan van Dongen, whose books about Aids and Ebola exposed the US government's biological weapons programs, told me that: 

"He and Ab Osterhaus, one of Dutch famous virologists, were very close, yet when he was making comments about his books, he said, "About Aids and Ebola biological weapons, he (Osterhaus) doesn't know what Dongen is talking about."

That is life and that is how your own close friends can stab you at the back if you choose to speak the truth. 

Why this article by the way? This is to inspire everyone who has suffered for speaking the truth to continue to suffer for it instead of giving up because there is always an invincible doom awaiting those that have poisoned this world, leading innocent people to their untimely death.

People are no longer interested in the truth because they don't want to lose their jobs, friends, or become subjects of hate. But what they often forget when the catastrophe strikes both the liars and the truthful people suffer at the same time and very often the liars are those that find it too tough to handle.

Politicians have followed their evil desires and policies to kill innocent people in the United States of America and around the globe, with the coronavirus, yet this is what they don't want to hear. 

Joe Biden claims that the light is stronger than the dark, yet, for decades, he has fought the truth to coverup the US government's Aids and Ebola biological weapon crimes in Africa. Hypocrite!

“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”

You've Got The Power To Liberate Yourself From Depression

Suicide is not a solution to free yourself from the world’s problems

Everyone has wonderful hopes, dreams, and expectations of their future, but many times what we are looking for never come our way. Some of us have been robbed of our joy through the loss of a loved one, and many feel lonely and hopeless when they find themselves in abusive homes and domestic violence.

In such a troubled world, it’s very easy to see the ailments of society taking toll on people. The high rate of unemployment and divorce, isoneals me.to come from some of the causes leading to depression. It’s not surprising that psychologists have confirmed that the ailments of people can be traced. 

We understand that as human beings, we are bound to face difficulties in our lives; the important question is: How do we handle those problems we experience? According to the World Federation for Mental Health, depression is a significant contributor to the global burden of disease and affects people in all communities across the world.

Today, depression is estimated to affect 350 million people. The World Mental Health Survey conducted in 17 countries found that on average, about 1 in 20 people reported having an episode of depression. But do you know that you have the power to overcome loneliness and depression?

Why do some people easily succumb to depression, and others can resist? The happy people we often meet on the street are not superhumans. They are only happy because experience in life has taught them that happiness is within oneself.

Someone can make you unhappy, prevent your success, or do everything to hurt you, but so long as you are a living being, you have the power, desire, inspiration, or everything it takes to liberate yourself from that misery, loneliness, or depression.

Fear, anxiety, depression, and loneliness can be easilycan some recommended steps canand prevented than you know. Instead of living on drugs and alcohol, which can rather increase your psychological problems, some recommended steps can keep one far from loneliness and depression. Reading interesting books as a hobby can capture your imagination to avoid depression.

If you love to stay at home, please cultivate the habit of taking a walk through the gardens, doing window shopping, and joining social clubs. Going to the gym to exercise once or twice a week not only keeps you fit but also psychologically healthy. You may have a hidden talent, but you don’t know. Find out what you are very good at, follow it, and start blogging to create your happiness.

Another important factor is financial matters, which often wear people down psychologically. When facing financial problems, you need a healthy mind to find your way out, not a depressed mind.  I can’t do it, I’m not sure I can succeed, there is nothing left for me in life, they are all ‘symptoms’ of depression. Take away the shackles from your body and free your mind from the psychological chain damaging your health.

THE HIGH RATE OF TEENAGE SUICIDE

A depressed teenager



The rate at which teenagers are now committing suicide is overwhelming. The idea of a young person killing him or herself because of worries, pressure, or frustration is devastating and affects the family, school, friends, and the community.


Barely few months ago, a girl visited her friends to have a swim in a swimming pool. Three days later, the girl's mother called the family where her daughter went to the swimming pool that she has committed suicide. 

She just waited for a coming train and jumped onto the rail. It is a very complicated issue trying to find the reason some children or teenagers end up their lives tragically in this manner.

The question is, do they hate themselves? Are they being bullied? Why is life suddenly meaningless to many teenagers when they have parents to take care of them? 

When a teenager starts to smoke heavily and take alcohol frequently, parents shouldn't wait long to help the child. Sometimes parents are too hard on children for the fear of something happening to them, especially when the child wants to lead the life he wants best.

When any parents are confronted with such issues, there are organizations and trained people ready to help the child. Parents must be very close to their children and speak to them often to know if they are happy or not over something. 

Here, the child will be happy that his parents are showing concern, signifying their love for him. The child will, therefore, tell them whatever is worrying him for his parents to give him help.

TOO MUCH RELIGION, SO MUCH CONFUSION

Quote about religion

One may need to ask, One God but why so many religions? Apart from Christianity, many religions have been born or founded. The teachings of some of these religions are confusing, deceiving, and violent.

,

The effect of some of these 'Mushroom religions" is the catastrophe, chaos, suicide, destruction, and violence we are witnessing in the world today.

Countless religions have caused so much confusion in the world that many worshippers have chosen the worship of animals and idols.

These people believed in the superhuman qualities of animals and honored animals for having a spiritual life. One can be a vegetarian, but that doesn't mean you need to worship a cow, goat, or any edible animal.

Romans 1:23,  "And instead of worshipping the glorious ever-living God, they worshipped idols made to look like mere people, birds, animals, and reptiles".

In this case, animal worship is classified as idolatry. The most well-known continent that is related to animal worship in Asia is. India is perhaps the center of all idol worship. Elephant, Tiger, Snake, and even the mouse are worshipped.

Part of the ten commandments says "Thou shalt not have any other gods before Me, and Thou shalt not make unto yourself any idol, bow down to it or worship it.

But many today follow their own evil desires. The fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom. I will recommend the Holy Bible to anyone who wants peace, happiness, and a better life to read.
