truth and reality war

The inherently unresolvable conflict between the things individuals believe.
Because each individual comes to believe the things he or she believes as a result of his or her experiences, different individuals will always have certain beliefs which are different or even opposite the beliefs others have, and at different times will in some way need to fight in what is the "truth and reality war."

Beliefs are thoughts linked to an emotion.

"Live and let live."

overfuck

To engage in sex more often than is sensible.
To prevent the public from noticing that they are being taken advantage of by society's most powerful institutions, the media's programming induces everyone to overconsume, overeat, and overfuck (engage in sex too often).

Glorifry

Glorifying something which in reality harms the members of society.
To the detriment of society war is glorified by Hollywood and the media, but its glorification and "gorycealment" (concealing the bloody parts of violence) also helps ensure that sufficient young taxpayers will enlist in the armed forces to protect the nation from or allow Americans to react to, for example, the asinine invasion of Pearl Harbor in 1941, or other types of attacks individuals tend to find adjectives for. "Was it rational to attack the Japanese for invading Pearl Harbor," the professor asked. A student replied that if the U.S. hadn't attacked Japan, that empire would have grown stronger and as far away as the U.S. is from Japan, like the United Kingdom took back the Malvina Islands, Japan could have successfully invaded and conquered the U.S. So to imposibilize that, President Roosevelt did the correct thing by retaliating and inserting the U.S. into WWII. Some individuals suspect that glorifying war is an act of glorifrycation. So much for glorifry.

Easyfication

Though almost everyone mistakenly believes that learning to write is as difficult as learning to play a musical instrument, inspired by Frederick Taylor's Scientific Management principles, Richard Casey and Charles Cox began its easyfication in a social media group and where volunteers teach students the "one best way" to learn to give a writing a title, write an introductory clause, add a comma, add a semicolon, and perform the other 555 writing techniques he has systematized. Go Richard!

Reality War

The war fought in a series of ongoing battles between society's most powerful entities as they endeavor to convince as many people as possible to accept their version of reality and think, feel, and act accordingly.
Reality is essentially what is accepted as existing, in other words, "what is." To convince others to believe that reality is what they say it is, religious organizations, governments, corporations, mass media outlets, universities, writers, intellectuals, artists, musicians, singers and other performers, scientists, and the masses all engage in the Reality War in as best their money and other resources permit.

There are personal, past, present, proposed, debunked, fraudulent, altruistic, positive, negative, imagined, factual, fictitious, and many other types of realities.

Some realities are more extensive and complex, and it is generally impossible to conclusively prove whether a reality is true or false.

The first reality to exist was and is the Original Reality and those who believe God created everything accept it as the one true reality, undistorted by the now almost ubiquitous overt, covert, or subliminal messages to the contrary.

personalized reality

A design and constructed reality which filters out negative media messages, negative people, and applies the Ten Commandments, the Golden Rule, and other Christian principles. It is more efficient, more honest, and respects and considers the individuals far more than the mainstream reality does.
Though no one anywhere is free to do everything they want, in the United States we enjoy the most freedom anyone has ever enjoyed. I take advantage of my freedom by doing all I can to feel the most pleasure and the least pain. Seeing mainstream reality's flaws, I also imagined and visualized myself and others living in a better reality, a "personalized reality" and filtered out all the negative messages the media disseminates. I filtered out negative people (including some family members). I stopped practicing negative, counterproductive habits, and apply most of the Christian principles, starting with the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule to create a more efficient, more honest reality which is more respectful and more considerate of myself and others.

word therapy

Healing oneself by working with words and letting them order and clarify the way one feels, thinks, and acts.
After a major television network offered to interview me, but then cancel the interview, that series of events first raised but then lowered my self-concept, confused me, made me feel powerless—even helpless, but not hopeless.

Soon after I started to edit the index of a book I'm writing, I began to feel increasingly better.

Working with words balanced my emotions and allowed me to feel, think, and act correctly again. I call that word therapy.
