We may not realize it at first, but we have been surrounded by blessings our entire lives.
The beauty of nature
Nature is a place where everything is created we need to live and thrive.
While we use manufactured products to do things like create food, clothes, and shelter, they cannot compare to the natural resources we have available.
Nature provides us with fresh water, air, oxygen, sunshine, and countless other elements we simply take for granted everyday.
In addition, nature gives us the gift of living things - animals, insects, reptiles, birds, fish, trees, flowers, plants, fungi, coral reefs, etc.
These beings help keep the balance of creation and give us many things we could never make ourselves.
As humans we often forget about the importance of nature to our daily lives.
But nature is all around us, you just have to take it in.
Nature provides for us if we allow it.
Try spending time outside learning to live off nature, it will give you confidence that should it come to it you will be able survive.
See what happens!
You will find you will go through a spiritual experience and learn valuable lessons that you can only gain from living in nature.
I am sure you would notice a difference gernerally in your life as well.
Many people feel bad about themselves due to their imperfections, but there is no way to fix these flaws except to learn to live with them.
Eva here has Marcus Gunn Syndrome.
I have schizophrenia and PTSD.
We all have flaws of some kind but we make the most of it adapt and overcome.
There are many ways to improve yourself, but not many ways to get rid of the flaws permanently.
One good way to overcome self-doubt is to focus on the positive things about yourself.
Focus on the fact that you have two legs strong enough to walk, eyes that can see, and hands capable of doing hard work.
When you think of the positive attributes in your life, you should find that you are actually quite proud of yourself.
When you tell others who love you that you are proud of them, they will begin to feel proud of themselves too.
So, instead of focusing on what you lack, start thinking of what you have.
Enjoying the simple pleasures of life
Once you realize how amazing nature is, you will want to enjoy every moment of it.
Enjoying the simple things in life takes much less effort than trying to change negative thoughts you have about yourself.
However, enjoying the simple things in life does not mean forgetting about the problems you face.
Simply put, enjoying the simple things is about finding joy in the little things that happen in everyday life.
You spend much time worrying about the future, planning your day, working hard, and searching for pleasure in life.
All of this is fine, but you sometimes forget about the present.
You often fail to enjoy the simple things in life.
If you want to enjoy life more, you must learn to relax while you wait for something exciting to occur.
You must learn to enjoy the small moments of life such as being able to sleep soundly and waking up feeling refreshed.
Learning to relax helps you become happier.
Happiness comes from enjoying life.
Do not worry about things that might happen tomorrow or the day after that.
Instead, take the time to enjoy the little things that happen each day.
Make the most out of every opportunity.
My Larry is Alive entry
I completed 3 of my Larry is Alive tasks today.
Listnerds
First i went to Listnerds there is not enough emails being sent now to even finish the daily tasks, so to be honest this will be the last month i pay for enterprise.
It costs $97 a month and there seems to be less than 100 active people in a site that claims to have over 24,000 members now apparently.
It is a shame as i had high hopes for this being on the blockchain, but the truth is it has fallen flat on its face and i do not see it recovering now.
As you can see sending 5,000 emails or 24,000 emails produces basically the same results.
As it is not my website there is nothing i can do about it and i wonder if the owners just stretched themselves too much here to be fair.
I was hoping it would turn around but unfortunately the situation is not improving.
I know some people will be salty about me writing this but considering i am a paying customer at the highest membership i think i have a right to tell the truth.
We are told to track our advertising and dump what doesn't work by these same owners although their own sites is probably not what they had in mind.
Like i said i thought this would work out much better, there was a lot of promise in the beginning but it has been allowed to just dry up.
Kind of gutted not going to lie, no hard feelings just have to move on.
In my opinion this is highly over priced now especially as it cost less than a 3rd of the amount for set and forget ads plus all the tools you could need to build a business at the next site i visited.
Next i went to Leadsleap
Here i have 2 ads set up on a regular basis and i don't have to do anything to have the web traffic sent so will be focusing here more in the future.
With your membership you get daily web traffic set and forget, page builder, funnel builder, autoresponder, image hosting, pop up, form creator and more.
Next i went to traffic ad bar
Thanks for reading

Nature has always been very important to me, however, when I moved to Lower Puna in far East Big Island, Hawai'i, that went to a whole new level. I've lived barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, for more then four and a half years now. It has allowed me to heal myself and grow immensely in my humanity, and now I really can't imagine, or would I want to live any other way.
Accepting, loving, and trusting, and believing in ourselves is of paramount importance, and completely changes our experience of ourselves and our world.
Thank you Ben! I really appreciated this post! 🙏 💚

Even away from family for four years in a foreign land, I live by the following principles for four years:
But when I returned home, it was not easy to maintain them. I am still giving my best, but I miss the first and the last.
Yes my friend it is sometimes hard to maintain but the more we do the less we lack.

Totally agree on treasuring nature! We must remember many of our resources come from there
Absolutely my friend it is the base of who we are because it is where we came from and provides what we need.

I really like your mindset Ben. I have carried a lifelong illness with me and it is like you say, we need to try to live with it and adapt. Perfection is an illusion. I hope the Marcus Gunn Syndrome is not so bad, I didnt hear about this before. Wishing you all the best.
Thank you my friend that is it, no one is perfect even if they seem so we all have our flaws and baggage.
Marcus Gunn Syndrome is a rare eye defect, it shouldn't cause her too many issues and is only really noticable if she gets tried or when she is eating.
Basically it is the muscles, and nerves have developed different causing a widening of one eye.
She has the rarest kind which is better in some ways as it is less noticable but it will need regular checking and she will always need her perscription for glasses increased over the years.
They don't know what causes it.
