As the Sunsets, John Leland McCrae is in the West

 


by C. Henry Adams


When talking of this Brother,  I am thankful for his guidance as a Man,  a US Marine, a Mason and Christian. There are many definitions of the word 'secret'. The one that stands out in my mind regarding this Mentor's Guidance is this... " a valid but not commonly known or recognized method of achieving or maintaining something. "  ("the secret of a happy marriage is compromise").

God said , "Be fruitful and multiple." Brother John McCrae is a Husband, Father, Grandfather, & Great Grandfather. "  He has managed many gardens or landscapes in his lifetime.  He has actually fed many people literally in his lifetime.  Liken there was a time in Albany, Georgia, whereas, drove a convoy of people from Dekalb County, Georgia to a neighborhood in Albany, Georgia to set up a massive grill to feed  neighbors, first responders and many people alike.

Well done thy good and faithful servant.  We will see you again.  May God bless you at rest.  May God bless your wife, son, daughters, grand children, great grand children, extended family and friends.

The Significance of James Oglethorpe, Father of Georgia prior to the American Revolutionary War

 

by C. Henry Adams

On Wednesday, February 14th 2024, I had the opportunity to visit Oglethorpe University with a business colleague - ( Dr. Elie Kabwende) to hear the lecture of Dekalb County CEO, Michael L. Thurmond.  On this date, Oglethorpe University presented Oglethorpe Day.

"Oglethorpe Day honors our university's namesake, James Edward Oglethorpe. Held in February, Oglethorpe Day commemorates the anniversary of General Oglethorpe's arrival in the new world in Savannah, Ga. Each year the festivities begin with the exciting Petrels of Fire race."

Dekalb County CEO, Michael L. Thurmond lecture was regarding the founder, 

" James Oglethorpe on February 12, 1733, the Georgia colony that he envisioned as a unique social welfare experiment. Administered by twenty-one original trustees, the Georgia Plan offered England’s “worthy poor” and persecuted Christians an opportunity to achieve financial security in the New World by exporting goods produced on small farms. Most significantly, Oglethorpe and his fellow Trustees were convinced that economic vitality could not be achieved through the exploitation of enslaved Black laborers."

Through Michael L. Thurmond years of research, he uncovers that Oglethorpe's evolution from slave trader to abolitionist was possibly influenced by his relationships with two black men; Ayuba Suleiman Diallo and Olaudah Equiano. 

Dekalb County CEO, Michael L. Thurmond is a politician, attorney, author, historian, husband and father. His experience extends throughout his life from Paine College, the University of South Carolina School of Law, the Georgia General Assembly to the Labor Commissioner of Georgia and now the the Chief Executive Officer of DeKalb County, Georgia.

It was an enlightening surprise to learn about the Founder of Georgia - James Oglethorpe.

No Regard for Human Life at the Cross Walk In Clarkston, Ga USA

 

by C. Henry Adams

" Clarkston is known as "Ellis Island of the South." More than half of the population was born outside of the United States and 60 languages are spoken in the city's one square mile. "

Quote from :

March 5, 2022 / 1:03 PM EST / CBS News

CBS Saturday Morning

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/refugees-clarkston-georgia-afghanistan/

Inside the Georgia city that has become a home away from home for refugees: "The people are very loving"

I placed these keywords in google below , just to see what would come up:

georgia
state
dekalb
county
indian creek
cross walk
accident

Well,  then I copied all the dates where a pedestrian was reported involved in an accident within the Clarkston, Dekalb County Georgia area :

Oct 19, 2017
Jan 19, 2021
Jan 6, 2023
Oct 12, 2023

There are many more dates reported.

As the City of Clarkston, Georgia grows while being apart of Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia area, likely there will be an increase of pedestrian loss of life.  Unless actions are taken to preserve life; like place up a red light near the Dekalb County Clarkston Library & Community Center in place of the crosswalk seen above in this particular blog.

There is a 171 page DEKALB COUNTY 2050 UNIFIED PLAN COMPREHENSIVE
LAND USE PLAN

Why is this important? 

"Well, The DeKalb County 2050 Comprehensive Development Plan is a key part of the DeKalb County 2050 Unified Plan and includes policies and recommendations created to guide decision making related to development and growth within DeKalb County."

Hey, I'm Homeless - Why Discriminate Against Me?

 

by C. Henry Adams

In June of 2023,  I was working for Briggs and Stratton - Advanced Battery Manufacturing, when I decided to make one of those life changing decisions and retire.  Perhaps, to some people, my decision was irrational and a bit mentally ill.  After all, who in their right mind would leave a $38,000.00 USD a year job (Not a Career)  to pursue an American Dream to be a business owner?  To some people, the thought, the action, the re-action and counter moves that one will experience could be considered insane.

But, what if your Plan A  (Adams Henry Christopher Contracting, LLC ) did not quite work after making the above decision?

Then, your Plan B  ( CHAAS, LLC ) did not quite work as well.

Then,  Plan C  ( Global Relief and Rescue Community, Inc ) did not quite work .

Then,  Plan D  ( HASPS ) did not quite work.

Finally, Plan E  ( Neighbors Nephew Landscaping Services LLC ) did not quite work, too.

So, what do one do?

If , the late Marion Lewis Adams, Sr. was alive; he would have advised myself to take what did work to form a business plan to resolve the solution.

Sometimes, this task is not easy to accomplish.  Fore, it might require one to truly humble themselves.

"A vulnerable population experiencing homelessness not only experience personal and economic hardship, but they also face discrimination and exclusion because of their housing status.

Although past research has shown that identifying with multiple groups can buffer against the negative consequences of discrimination on well-being, it remains to be seen whether such strategies protect well-being of people who are homeless. "

Quote from:

Front Psychol. 2015; 6: 739.

Discrimination and well-being amongst the homeless: the role of multiple group membership

Melissa Johnstone,^1,*† Jolanda Jetten,^1,† Genevieve A. Dingle,¹ Cameron Parsell,² and Zoe C. Walter¹

Therefore, the only way that I could learn to better myself was to merely humble myself.

I put aside the pride to accept prayers and  have truly tried for two years to learn unconditional love.

Hey, I'm homeless.  So, why discriminate against me when I get hungry?  So, why discriminate against me when I have no place of my own to sleep?  So, why discriminate against me when I have no job paying me enough to sustain above $14,580 or https://www.healthcare.gov/glossary/federal-poverty-level-fpl/  ?

Sometimes, to understand people, things or even situations, one would have to experience them.

Own Up to Your Mistakes!

 

by C. Henry Adams



Just a thought.  Should you tell a lie?  In my professional opinion, the answer is NO. It is said that former U.S. President (Donald Trump) incited a riot when he got many people to believe a lie.

Why?  Likely, because he did not accept the fact he lost a federal election to be the U.S. President, a second term.  He did not own up to his mistakes.  Own up means admit or confess.

On Sunday, January 14th 2024, District Attorney Fani Willis of Fulton County in the State of Georgia
own up to the fact that she was not perfect.  She gave a speech based on a letter she wrote to God.  She shared it with the congregation at  Big Bethel AME Church in Atlanta, Georgia.

Own Up to Your Mistakes!

Counteracting Identity Theft Was Our Start, What Now?

 

by C. Henry Adams


It's Saturday January 6th 2024,  in the south eastern part of the United States of America, where I am currently located; Winter started December 21st 2023 and is scheduled to run through March 24th 2024.

I can hear in my mind someone saying,  ' OK, thanks I could have asked my AI (artificial intelligence) machine that question, like you did C. Henry Adams. '

Well today in technology, fake Data or Synthetic Data is one of two topics of discussion.  The other is FinCEN and the U. S. Treasury Department tracking your business money.

Which is leading us here at C. Henry Adams Blogs to diversification and after 15 years of trying to write something that was suppose to be entertaining, yet very educational.

Perhaps, counteracting Identity Theft should lead to the diversification of various types of  Blog Writers in Technology &  Beyond!  With additional bloggers performing these tasks on C. Henry Adams Blogs, that would be a great idea in 2024.   If you are interested in this challenge...

Trust ( Faith), Expectation (Hope) & Love

 by C. Henry Adams


As we end the year of 2023, Trust, Expectation & Love continues to play an important role in our daily lives on this Earth.  It seems even in our worst of times, as well as, our best of times; those three words exist.  Some know Trust can mean having Faith.  Others might know that Expectation yields to Hope.  Just having Love for a person or people in general means more than we can ever dream. But, did you ever imagine possessing these three things could exude super natural power?


Well, I trust that you are well or become well in 2024.  I expect nothing, but the best for you and yours. And with Love, may peace be with you all in the New Year!

There are No Big " I " s or little old " U " s, fore ALL are on the same level

 




by C. Henry Adams



On one of my now many morning walks, I looked up to see the Moon in the distance sky.  It's reflection of light off the Closest Star which is our Sun that we can watch here on Earth got me to thinking how beautiful life is; that is - if you make it regardless of your circumstances.

Because, just when 'some people' not all of them, write you off.  God, excuse me, Our God will awake you to see, yet another day.  So, just knowing that, I or you will not be without things.

There are no Big "  I  " s  or little old  " U " s, fore ALL are on the same level.  Now, I wonder where I heard that humbling saying from?

Your PadSplit Membership Has Been Terminated

by C. Henry Adams



Poverty is said to be the state of one who lacks a usual or socially acceptable amount of money or material possessions. Poverty is said to exist when people lack the means to satisfy their basic needs. In this context, the identification of poor people first requires a determination of what constitutes basic needs.  This was quoted just two days ago  (12/23/23/) ago and found via Google Search Engine in 0.42 seconds.  URL:  ( http://tinyurl.com/ykt2e9zx )  Note: URL link may not work.

Your PadSplit Membership Has Been Terminated.  Today (12/25/23),  I ( C. Henry Adams ) am impoverished.  I recently discovered in the morning hours of Christmas Day that I had been evicted from a room of a house I will not disclose - for failing to pay $20.00 USD.   This is a very real reality for me and thousands to millions of people around the World -  " Homelessness ".

If you have read about me here: (http://tinyurl.com/yzyptfbk).  I am nothing special, just took many journeys throughout my life here & there.  Now, I seek to tell about them in hopes to better other people lives some day.

The very first thing you might care to know about me is that I am not perfect.  But, I figure while I am still able to breathe and do things.  I will strive to be perfect in some sort of way.  Furthermore, the blogs I write are purposefully meant to be short lived, yet to the point.  They were not meant to tell you how I may think, but merely to help you think about something while sharing a discussion with others to better your lives. 

The Human - Spiritual Catalyst comes in different forms, perhaps, they help the World revolve.
