so far we have had COVID, the wef forum agendas being pushed heavily then russia/ukraine and next on the horizon is the recession and digital currency's changeover due anytime and the resulting food shortages from ukraine supplying 2/3 of europes grain (it takes 18 months for the impact to be felt with the poorest in africa and india set to suffer "future unity" posted an in depth video ) i think its all just the west and china/russia (brics/dollar) raising tensions hopefully its just a 2 year recession and no major wars at this point i dont think its all a coincidence
Yes. I'm preparing. Nothing radical just getting myself mentally prepared for isolation and self sufficiency. I'm like you... Hope for the Best but prepare for the worst. On my way from Pattaya to Rural Chiang Mai.
Same same here. My crystal ball tells me Q4 this year when Nina gets to her heights. It will cause lots of disruptions, forces of nature. During and after COVID (and probably the decade before this) the economy has been a pressure cooker. $$$ printing machine can hardly keep up! That alone makes it a House of cards. El Nina is the tipping.
I’m 71 years old, living in Thailand and had multiple financial setbacks (x4) all due to Covid. But we regrouped sold our house (quickly thank you Buddha) to financially reset. It’s happened now and my sub paranoid thoughts have our family better positioned for what ever is coming. It’s a man thing to want to protect who you love 💕

Thanks Ryan. As we all go through our journey it helps to have people with your level of understanding. I cant wait to read your shaman book. I've had positive experiences from plant medicine. Thanks for being a supportive influence. It means a lot.
I've been wondering why you didn't put up guttering at the front of your house to collect the rain water for plants and avoid a muddy mess at the front?
Damo is so creative with the landscape and I love watching you help each other Damo is very positive and I am the way you are I am always trying to survive in case an emergency ❤
Another awesome topic on your vlog Ryan! Thanks for sharing your life’s journey with us….the farm looks amazing and beautiful! Your son Hugo more adorable & Otis sure is growing up fast! You & Damo are good for one another….what a beautiful life❤ Thanks for sharing this video 😊
I've lived here 19 years and I have a similar story with the alcohol. I gave it up about 4 years ago after many, many years of memorable experiences. It was just becoming a bit much and the consequences and expense was making it a burden. Scary if you do the calculations for an 'average' drinker per month! Good advice trying to give up the expensive habits before moving here. I make my own wine, so that made it cheaper, but that just meant I drank more. LOL Now I just give it to my friends to lessen their monthly costs... Now I am really into the fungal remedies. Doing it on the 'nat'. Nice Terence quote! I'm gonna use that one. I still hangout with drinkers, but I mix some 'nam-tom' (Kratom) with my diet Coke. That keeps me in the social loop, but I'm much happier when they get their bills at the end of the night! LOL I've got a few Lophophora too, but I think I'll be dead before they're ready! Nice channel. Good to hear some more rationale views of living here. Too many Phuket and Pattaya channels. I get PTSD watching that stuff. I'm a bit of a prepper too. They didn't quite wipe out all the small businesses (and drive everything online) last time, so I reckon they'll let them recover and then hit them with something similar in about 7 years. I'm not paranoid, but after that last little trick, it's probably good to be a bit cautious of what could happen.
Meaning no disrespect at all, I would note that from the 12 Steps Room *AA" in my condo in Chiang Mai, it is exactly 12 Steps to the beer cooler in the convenience store across the hall. Archestrial irony?
Damo might be right about climate change. Between you Ryan and Damo there’s a happy medium somewhere ! Love your quiet simple life on the farm. May be the secret of peace and happiness is in a simple life close to nature ? Blessings 💕🌷
The snake never dies, it only periodically loosens its grip on society to reposition. When the snake grips, he studies our reactions and learns about how to be more effective next time. When he loosens, its our chance to prepare for next time. A look back through history shows the snake is always present and trying his next move.
If you actually understand what just happened, you'd be churlish not to be preparing (at least a little) for whatever they throw at us next. Godspeed to you and your family brother.
I am with you as far as having a feeling of something else just around the corner. Some will put that down to slight paranoia given recent events with the hysteria caused by Covid. Trust your gut Ryan, that's what I always do. Better to be prepared even if nothing eventuates, if it turns out that you were wrong then there's no harm done but at least you were prepared
Something else if definitely coming mate keep protecting your family. Global warming isn’t really a thing or it is very distorted there is many other factors. Economic recession is the problem. Even if nothing happens you are going to be in a better position regardless.
i think the pandemic and starting to think about prepping is whats driving me to live in rural thailand, being even a fraction self sustainable in australia is extremely costly right now to set up and it wont change as the price must always be driven upwards. i hope i can make it happen soon enough. speaking about working early, my missus and her family wakes at 2am to tap the rubber trees until 8am. cheers ryan
@@ThePatriot-gm1fg i live in australia, so all of this is known to me. to achieve the land and lifestyle i want in australia, i would have to sell the property i have and continue working at the same time, where as in thailand the rental money would fund my much more simplified lifestyle in thailand, while also having plenty to spare. i do appreciate the concern, the immigration issue is in reality the only concern i have with thailand but i will always have money back home to land on if needed. plus, i dont think ill be leaving my partner anytime soon. for context i am 31 and shes 29, so were young and still able to build from this age.

@@ThePatriot-gm1fg i appreciate the comments mate, its always good to get many perspectives.

I agree with Damo, global warming & natural disasters world wide worry me. I lived through the Christchurch earthquakes & always expect a repeat. Im not paranoid or prepping, im happy to go when my time is up !!
Very much looking forward to your experience and thoughts and tips on going sober! Very much enjoy your channel I lived in Pattaya for the last 3 years! Hopefully we get some rain soon !
Quit preaching you naturalistic ways to me Ryan! 555 If I want to drink beer, I will. dammit. No driving, no child, no wife has unburdened me, yet realize it was the better part of my life. Likely, something worse than Covid pandemic is coming, you need to be prepared. As Damo knows, global warming, climate change is something no one knows how to prepare for really, Otis and Hugo will help you both as they become aware....Brilliant vlog again Ryan. Peace and Love ....
Great chat , so much “common “ sense. I’d like to say you lucky man but I don’t think luck had much to do with it ,, just some good decision making. 👍 be happy 🙏🙏
Life was a mess and bow it is not 👍🙏🙏 Addicts have a certain chaos surrounding them, usually turns to chaos when there is nothing to be busy with. 30 years "clean", yes a few setbacks short term when life throws a nasty curve ball. Thailand absolutely helps with the lower pace in life, sabai sabai :-) Less stressful. Also knowing that you will loose everything you have now, being grounded, connected... That alone should be enough to simply not take the second one. Some would say don't take the first one at all. If you where/are addicted to alcohol, whe you are relaxing, enjoy life, why not drink 1? And the next one a year fron then. If you where/ are addicted to gambling, nothing wrong woth buying a scratcher, or visit casino (with set budget) Just enjoy that (when you are feeling good) and don't come back for an other year or so. When i felt depressed and went to casino.. self-destructive action.. Probably for an alcoholic the same . Not one beer but a bottle of Scotch... So when depressed.. find a friend, addiction isnt a friend.
Climate changes warms and cools - sometimes it’s hot and there are no glaciers on the planet. Earth is currently in the ice age called Quaternary glaciation.But naturally this is ending and it will warm up as it has many times - I worry a bit about preparedness for nuclear war which could happen this year but I guess rural Thailand might not be a bad place to be
You're absolutely right Ryan. Something is coming. I believe it's going to happen in the west first as the WEF net zero religion takes more and more of a hold. Unfortunately, the BRICS countries of which Thailand will soon be a member will follow behind. You are doing exactly the right thing. I will be doing the same shortly but i hope i can hold out in the Uk until my daughter has finished senior school.
Great talk today. When I am drunk and it's been years I don't feel good, it's not a good feeling to me. What does the view from your balcony look like., have you ever vloged from up there?
Hi from Penang, you'd a comment from somebody living in Hui Hin, I'd like to make contact find out the good & bad! How long lived there, where living. I'd like rural area quiet beach area. Tq. 😊
I can hear turkey sound.It's small beautiful animal(chicken,ducks,cow,buffalos,bunny,pigs) grow along with your kids.not aften to find turkey in local family houses.
Thank you for sharing your journey with alcoholism and your recovery. Spread the word …..life after alcohol 💪🏼🙏 Yes I believe there is something coming soon, it’s possible it’s South China Sea related?
I totally believe in having insight warning or strong felling in to things that are about to happen I’d also like to understand alcoholism as both my parents were alcoholics until the day died as matter of fact I come from a long line of alcoholics on both sides off my family i myself have never been drunk but even though I’ve been raised around alcoholism I still don’t understand this addiction I’d like to know more about it to help me make sense of it one thing I did notice they could always find enough money to buy it even though everything else was in short supply
Understand addiction isn't that hard. Everyone is addiction to something. Perhaps for you it's your phone. Set yourself a time limit 30 minutes a day. And say, that you need the other hours to be productive. Just observe your own behavior and how you will find "excuus" to use it passed this 30 minutes. For most addiction there is besides the mental part, a craving and you feel sick if you don't have. I've been addicted for 8 years, lived and worked with addicted people a few decades. Understanding what "makes them tick" is impossible to write here. You are welcome to visit and we can share some insight (Ban Chang area)
✨❤️❤️❤️❤️✨Wonderful! So happy for you both! I also believe something is happening! 1991? Was not a good year. Would prefer to be in Thailand right now. Sweden not a good place to be! 💞💋💞💋💞💋💞💋ps You think the right way! ❤️👍🏼
Is life about what one loses in life or what one learns ? I think that was the start of something else , I felt the same thing , never had any drugs or anything really yet I feel we have worse to come , people have thought me as a nutter most of my life, it’s ok because at least they are leaving other people alone. Where’s the song ok , = Year Of Decision = The Three Degrees.
You have mentioned the possibilities of living in the country of Thailand for a lower cost of living than in England. We are presently living in the USA. Have you found there might be a problem of acceptance by the local people with a gay couple living in a small community that you are currently living in?
I occasionally take a beer or two but have not had a problem with it. As a foreigner, people look at what you do and generalize based on your behavior. A stock market crash might come in the next few years. Climate change is another big issue.
Hi Ryan et al, I agree with you that something else is coming, but I don't know what! I guess as a Christian I have been prepping spiritually for Damo's "End of the World" as we know it, but so have Christians for over 2000 years. Now in my 76th year, you could say that I am prepping for my death to this world, prep[aring for that great celebration of life held by others after my mortal remains are burned and the ashes scattered on our land. However, i feel that I am good for another 30 years, so in the shorter term we are prepping this year by putting half our land to good use by growing rice. We have also planted many fruit trees, which will hopefully survive the predicted drought brought about by El Nino! Personally I think the next BIG event will probably be a finacial crash and worldwide recession, similar to the Great Depression of the 1920's and 30's. Whatever happens the main thing is to be as prepared as we can be for the unknown and remain at peace with ourselves and live happy and contended lives with our families around us. God bless you and your family always. 😀❤🙏
So just to give you my position. I'm a pomme living in New Zealand. I've been happily calling nz my home but I'm planning my escape out of western controlled govt. Thailand is top of my list. So can I ask you, with agenda 30 do you think it'll affect Thailand? It seems Asia, Africa and middle east not targets-yet. I'd be devastated if Klauss & Bill Gates ever gained any form of power in Asia. Would love to know anyone's vision on what they see coming for Thailand
@@ThePatriot-gm1fg not sure I can take LOL's seriously. Not sure i agree. China is free yet people mask, lots of Asia mask or so it seems. New Zealand is a testing ground. Small population here.
Of course you feel like there is something bad coming because it is already happening .The cost of living in all western countries has skyrocketed there is a war in Ukraine that is causing an energy crisis and global warming is becoming a reality .Most countries in the world are not used to these events so there will be some changes required but hopefully things will become better over time.
your wife seems like a sensible and responsible lady, so please explain to her that there is no global warming, none of those warming/cooling/changing predictions have never come true. CO2 is plant food and only 0.04% of the air. There are other things to be concerned about, but global warming isn't one of them.
Wow.. I'm sorry but I've studied physics and looked into the atmospheric sciences and can tell you're completely lost and wrong with your claim that the global warming isn't an actual thing. We are burning things faster than plants, or other CO2 consuming organisms can take in. We are also releasing a crap ton of other harmful substances to the atmosphere CONSTANTLY, substances that no plant is going to filter for you. We are releasing substances to the atmosphere that are NOT supposed to be there in the first place. Try explaining anyone who has ACTUALLY studied and looked into these things and tell them we are not causing global warming, ridiculous! You've been fed corporate jargon. Only huge corporations will benefit from ignoring the environment, NOT YOU! Hey, let's not just stop to the global warming issue. These ways we are living right now is causing even worse problems, problems that will set in before the man caused global warming has actually made a significant difference. We are dealing with climate change, not just global warming. That means the weather patterns are changing. We're dealing with faster phase of plant, insect and animal extinctions than ever in human history. All these things are affecting each other. These are things many people have observed and spent countless hours on working with. You claiming global warming is hoax is a massive disrespect for the scientific community. Global warming is absolutely an issue we need to focus SIMULTANEOUSLY with the other problems. There are 8 billion of us. I'm certain there is enough resources and hands on deck to tackle all issues at the same time. Actually that's exactly what we are doing right now all the time.

@@sturner80 yea, I guess so. Also more of an expert than Greta loon, and far smarter than Alllll Gore crazy. There are plenty of people that also say climate change is nothing but a scam, the guy who runs The Weather Channel, the founder of Greenpeace, and hundreds to thousands of scientists. A little bit of poking around google and Twater will show this. Yep, none so blind, yet you ignore the facts.
There is a guy here in the comments denying global warming, and I'm trying to explain him why he's wrong about it, but the comment just goes invisible. Frustrating. Like there is probably more evidence for the global warming and human induced climate change than for anything else. The things that are causing the said issues are out there for you to see, ignoring the fact that the human actions will have consequences is just stupid.
Human caused global warming is a fraud they want you to believe. If we caused this, we are 50 years too late to reverse it. What you see is the result of Geoengineering. You might not be aware of the countless ionospheric heaters they are playing with not to mention the world wide chemical spraying that is going on.
@@brendangoodbrand2597 You seriously think a book written 2000 years ago is up to date? As I noted before, maybe a few moral lessons are, but that's it. You can write as much as you like about your favourite book, but I'm not wasting my short time on this planet into religious nonsense.
@@brendangoodbrand2597 When did I say Jesus is a religion? If you want to convince someone with Christianity as the ultimate truth, you better check your sentence structures because right now your text is all over the place, making your written language difficult to understand. Religions create segregation, not much good has come out of them looking back into the history. I hope you will be able to navigate out of the mental chains your religion has created for you, peace ✌️ BTW there is zero evidence for the existence of souls. The thought of soul being an actual thing is merely a self preservation mechanism for your ego.
No such thing as an ex-alki Ryan.It's like watching Burnley,you are stuck with it for life. If it's any consolation,i don't think you were ever an alcoholic.Heavy drinker maybe,binge drinker maybe too. Brilliant channel,best about LOS on YT.

30 years "clean", yes a few setbacks short term when life throws a nasty curve ball.
Thailand absolutely helps with the lower pace in life, sabai sabai :-)
Less stressful.
Also knowing that you will loose everything you have now, being grounded, connected...
That alone should be enough to simply not take the second one.
Some would say don't take the first one at all.
If you where/are addicted to alcohol, whe you are relaxing, enjoy life, why not drink 1? And the next one a year fron then.
If you where/ are addicted to gambling, nothing wrong woth buying a scratcher, or visit casino (with set budget)
Just enjoy that (when you are feeling good) and don't come back for an other year or so.
When i felt depressed and went to casino.. self-destructive action..
Probably for an alcoholic the same . Not one beer but a bottle of Scotch...
So when depressed.. find a friend, addiction isnt a friend.
Climate changes warms and cools - sometimes it’s hot and there are no glaciers on the planet. Earth is currently in the ice age called Quaternary glaciation.But naturally this is ending and it will warm up as it has many times - I worry a bit about preparedness for nuclear war which could happen this year but I guess rural Thailand might not be a bad place to be
I have premonitions too, my hubby hates it because they always come true ! he thinks its a bit witch like 😂😂but I think its intuition
Happy family 🎉🎉❤
You're absolutely right Ryan. Something is coming. I believe it's going to happen in the west first as the WEF net zero religion takes more and more of a hold. Unfortunately, the BRICS countries of which Thailand will soon be a member will follow behind. You are doing exactly the right thing. I will be doing the same shortly but i hope i can hold out in the Uk until my daughter has finished senior school.
Great talk today. When I am drunk and it's been years I don't feel good, it's not a good feeling to me. What does the view from your balcony look like., have you ever vloged from up there?
Yes I think during the end of the house build on the main channel I vlogged go there abit 😊🙏🇹🇭
Hi from Penang, you'd a comment from somebody living in Hui Hin, I'd like to make contact find out the good & bad! How long lived there, where living. I'd like rural area quiet beach area. Tq. 😊
I think your pretty well set up , but I’d bet you didn’t stock up on OTC medicine and certain other good you use but rely on the supply chain to get,
I can hear turkey sound.It's small beautiful animal(chicken,ducks,cow,buffalos,bunny,pigs) grow along with your kids.not aften to find turkey in local family houses.
Never cared for alcohol, herbals was and still is my go to
Thank you for sharing your journey with alcoholism and your recovery. Spread the word …..life after alcohol 💪🏼🙏
Yes I believe there is something coming soon, it’s possible it’s South China Sea related?
I totally believe in having insight warning or strong felling in to things that are about to happen I’d also like to understand alcoholism as both my parents were alcoholics until the day died as matter of fact I come from a long line of alcoholics on both sides off my family i myself have never been drunk but even though I’ve been raised around alcoholism I still don’t understand this addiction I’d like to know more about it to help me make sense of it one thing I did notice they could always find enough money to buy it even though everything else was in short supply
Understand addiction isn't that hard. Everyone is addiction to something.
Perhaps for you it's your phone.
Set yourself a time limit 30 minutes a day.
And say, that you need the other hours to be productive.
Just observe your own behavior and how you will find "excuus" to use it passed this 30 minutes.
For most addiction there is besides the mental part, a craving and you feel sick if you don't have.
I've been addicted for 8 years, lived and worked with addicted people a few decades.
Understanding what "makes them tick" is impossible to write here.
You are welcome to visit and we can share some insight (Ban Chang area)
✨❤️❤️❤️❤️✨Wonderful! So happy for you both! I also believe something is happening! 1991? Was not a good year. Would prefer to be in Thailand right now. Sweden not a good place to be! 💞💋💞💋💞💋💞💋ps You think the right way! ❤️👍🏼
My opinion is far closer to yours than Damo's.
Lol. I liked that. Ask Damo whether she thinks something bad is coming, and no, apart from the end of the world is nigh!!;!!😂
Does the wef have their claws in Thailand?
Is life about what one loses in life or what one learns ? I think that was the start of something else , I felt the same thing , never had any drugs or anything really yet I feel we have worse to come , people have thought me as a nutter most of my life, it’s ok because at least they are leaving other people alone. Where’s the song ok , = Year Of Decision = The Three Degrees.
You have mentioned the possibilities of living in the country of Thailand for a lower cost of living than in England. We are presently living in the USA. Have you found there might be a problem of acceptance by the local people with a gay couple living in a small community that you are currently living in?
I occasionally take a beer or two but have not had a problem with it. As a foreigner, people look at what you do and generalize based on your behavior. A stock market crash might come in the next few years. Climate change is another big issue.
Hi Ryan et al, I agree with you that something else is coming, but I don't know what! I guess as a Christian I have been prepping spiritually for Damo's "End of the World" as we know it, but so have Christians for over 2000 years. Now in my 76th year, you could say that I am prepping for my death to this world, prep[aring for that great celebration of life held by others after my mortal remains are burned and the ashes scattered on our land. However, i feel that I am good for another 30 years, so in the shorter term we are prepping this year by putting half our land to good use by growing rice. We have also planted many fruit trees, which will hopefully survive the predicted drought brought about by El Nino! Personally I think the next BIG event will probably be a finacial crash and worldwide recession, similar to the Great Depression of the 1920's and 30's. Whatever happens the main thing is to be as prepared as we can be for the unknown and remain at peace with ourselves and live happy and contended lives with our families around us. God bless you and your family always. 😀❤🙏
So just to give you my position. I'm a pomme living in New Zealand. I've been happily calling nz my home but I'm planning my escape out of western controlled govt. Thailand is top of my list. So can I ask you, with agenda 30 do you think it'll affect Thailand? It seems Asia, Africa and middle east not targets-yet. I'd be devastated if Klauss & Bill Gates ever gained any form of power in Asia.
Would love to know anyone's vision on what they see coming for Thailand
Yesterday saw a list with pictures, of members of "Young Global Leaders, WEF", and there was pic and description of Thailand Royal Family Princess.
@@stevecarr1992 yes that's right so I am keeping my eye on politics there
@aliowl Yes, very disturbing, but think she was the one who was injured from the Jabadabadoo, and was supposedly a lawsuit against Big Farm..a
@@ThePatriot-gm1fg not sure I can take LOL's seriously. Not sure i agree. China is free yet people mask, lots of Asia mask or so it seems. New Zealand is a testing ground. Small population here.
First!
If you were prepping, you should have bought a diesel pick up truck, not a car.
Always prepare for the worse and everything else is a bonus
Of course you feel like there is something bad coming because it is already happening .The cost of living in all western countries has skyrocketed there is a war in Ukraine that is causing an energy crisis and global warming is becoming a reality .Most countries in the world are not used to these events so there will be some changes required but hopefully things will become better over time.
your wife seems like a sensible and responsible lady, so please explain to her that there is no global warming, none of those warming/cooling/changing predictions have never come true. CO2 is plant food and only 0.04% of the air. There are other things to be concerned about, but global warming isn't one of them.
Wow.. I'm sorry but I've studied physics and looked into the atmospheric sciences and can tell you're completely lost and wrong with your claim that the global warming isn't an actual thing. We are burning things faster than plants, or other CO2 consuming organisms can take in. We are also releasing a crap ton of other harmful substances to the atmosphere CONSTANTLY, substances that no plant is going to filter for you. We are releasing substances to the atmosphere that are NOT supposed to be there in the first place. Try explaining anyone who has ACTUALLY studied and looked into these things and tell them we are not causing global warming, ridiculous! You've been fed corporate jargon. Only huge corporations will benefit from ignoring the environment, NOT YOU!
Hey, let's not just stop to the global warming issue. These ways we are living right now is causing even worse problems, problems that will set in before the man caused global warming has actually made a significant difference. We are dealing with climate change, not just global warming. That means the weather patterns are changing. We're dealing with faster phase of plant, insect and animal extinctions than ever in human history. All these things are affecting each other.
These are things many people have observed and spent countless hours on working with. You claiming global warming is hoax is a massive disrespect for the scientific community.
Global warming is absolutely an issue we need to focus SIMULTANEOUSLY with the other problems. There are 8 billion of us. I'm certain there is enough resources and hands on deck to tackle all issues at the same time. Actually that's exactly what we are doing right now all the time.

Yeah , you’re a bigger expert than Sir David Attenborough 😊 there’s none so blind as those who don’t want to see .
@@sturner80 yea, I guess so. Also more of an expert than Greta loon, and far smarter than Alllll Gore crazy.
There are plenty of people that also say climate change is nothing but a scam, the guy who runs The Weather Channel, the founder of Greenpeace, and hundreds to thousands of scientists. A little bit of poking around google and Twater will show this.
Yep, none so blind, yet you ignore the facts.
@@brendangoodbrand2597 I’ve no idea what you’re on about ! The Bible ? What’s that got to do with anything ?
Ooh no, the globes warming.
Pity, she seemed quite bright.
There is a guy here in the comments denying global warming, and I'm trying to explain him why he's wrong about it, but the comment just goes invisible. Frustrating. Like there is probably more evidence for the global warming and human induced climate change than for anything else. The things that are causing the said issues are out there for you to see, ignoring the fact that the human actions will have consequences is just stupid.
Human caused global warming is a fraud they want you to believe. If we caused this, we are 50 years too late to reverse it. What you see is the result of Geoengineering. You might not be aware of the countless ionospheric heaters they are playing with not to mention the world wide chemical spraying that is going on.
If someone doesn’t believe in science the conversation ends there.
@@brendangoodbrand2597 What? 🤣 Stop that bible BS right there. There are some acceptable moral lessons in that book, but that's about it.
@@brendangoodbrand2597 You seriously think a book written 2000 years ago is up to date? As I noted before, maybe a few moral lessons are, but that's it. You can write as much as you like about your favourite book, but I'm not wasting my short time on this planet into religious nonsense.
@@brendangoodbrand2597 When did I say Jesus is a religion? If you want to convince someone with Christianity as the ultimate truth, you better check your sentence structures because right now your text is all over the place, making your written language difficult to understand. Religions create segregation, not much good has come out of them looking back into the history. I hope you will be able to navigate out of the mental chains your religion has created for you, peace ✌️
BTW there is zero evidence for the existence of souls. The thought of soul being an actual thing is merely a self preservation mechanism for your ego.
No such thing as an ex-alki Ryan.It's like watching Burnley,you are stuck with it for life.
If it's any consolation,i don't think you were ever an alcoholic.Heavy drinker maybe,binge drinker maybe too.
Brilliant channel,best about LOS on YT.
You are far from paranoid .. I see it as “IYKYK” & there are many of us preparing for the next hit .. 🩵
