When you are the first person whose beliefs are different from what everyone else believes, you are basically saying, ‘I’m right and everyone else is wrong.’ That’s a very unpleasant position to be in. It’s at once exhilaration and the same time an invitation to be attacked.
當你的信念與眾不同時,等於是說:「只有我是正確的,別人都是錯的。」那是既令人振奮又招致攻訐的不愉快角色

Conservatives and Liberals | Lee Yee
In the 1960s and 1970s, the American Civil Rights movement, the anti-Vietnam war movement, and the European movement were in the rage. At that time I was still young, and saw that in Western ideologies there were the liberals and the radicals. The middle-aged and older people were mostly liberals, and young people were mostly radicals. Nobody called themselves conservative at that time. It was as if there was a consensus that society should reform, that being conservative means not progressive. It was not until 1979 and 1981 when Prime Minister Mrs. Margaret Thatcher and U.S. President Reagan came to power and implemented conservative policies, succeeded, before the British and American politics went back to being traditional. However, the yearning for equality brought about by these civil movements has since become the mainstream driving ideology and consciousness in Western academics and media.
In the United States' two parties, the Republicans are generally considered conservatives, and the Democrats are liberals. Of course, there is mutual influence and infiltration into each and among each other. There are no generally accepted standard definitions for liberalism and conservatism, for they reflect socio-ideological trends and political practices of politicians.
Liberalism basically has four pillars: one, it recognizes that there are unavoidable conflicts of interest and beliefs in society; two, distrust of power; three, that people are progressive, and subjectively promotes the progress of human civilization; four, regardless of people’s ideology, identity, race, gender, or sexual orientation, they should be respected and accepted for their diversity, minorities are tolerated, and equality is pursued.
Conservatism is by no means an antonym to the pursuit of freedom. Both Mrs. Thatcher and Reagan are the most resolute guardians of freedom; conservatism does not deny power, but emphasizes that power must be monitored, checked and balanced.
In terms of welfare policies, liberalism pursues equality, protects minority rights, protects disadvantaged groups, and promotes and enhances social welfare. Since the increase in welfare would come from government spending, therefore there have to be tax increases. It is not like conservatism disregard the disadvantaged groups, but rather, it believes that there can be no true equality except before God and a fair court. It must first recognize the various differences and groups in people, and the pursuit of equality regardless of differences will only create new inequalities. If society eventually moves towards the equal distribution in socialism, people will move towards the path of slavery. Conservatism does not oppose welfare, but rather, it believes that charitable organizations, churches, civic organizations, or foundations should help the weak and helpless in society. The government ought to provide only policy assistance from the side, because if the government is to lead welfare, it will lead to excessive governance and intervention, and the price to pay will be an increase in taxation, leading to inflation. One of the founding spirits of the United States is that everyone is self-reliant. For those with the ability to make their own living to rely on government welfare for a prolonged period will actually make people live a life without self-esteem.
Liberalism seeks equal distribution from anti-discrimination, anti-difference, and equal opportunity, which is a road towards socialism. Conservatism does not seek rapid progress,; it believes that customs, conventions, and continuity should be followed. Ancient customs allow people to live together in harmony; those who destroy customs can destroy beyond what they want to destroy. The Cultural Revolution revolutionized the fate of culture. Conservatives also do not oppose social progress, but progress will not fall from the sky. If certain parts of society are progressing, other parts usually are declining. A healthy society must be both “enduring” and “developing”. For society to sustain endurance for a long time, there must be lasting faith. If that cannot last, the root source of righteousness will collapse.
In order not to interfere with people’s freedom, conservatism advocates small government, deregulation, tax reduction, in an attempt to create an environment conducive to the operation of private enterprises. Before Reagan was elected, both society and the economy were in difficult situations. The Americans hoped that Reagan could save the economy when he came to power, but in his inauguration speech, he said, “Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem.” Loosening up, reducing taxes, and adopting inaction, Reagan rejuvenated the U.S. economy.
Despite advocating for small governments, successive Republican governments, from Reagan to Bush to Trump, have increased military spending and maintained a strong military power; the Democratic Party’s Obama, on the other hand, wanted to be tolerant of totalitarian countries and cut military spending. Reagan developed a space war plan, and Trump developed the space army, because they believe that neither democracy or totalitarianism is people’s choice between different systems, but between people’s choice or the system imposed upon them by those in power; it is the difference between righteousness and evil, no middle ground, no moral relativism. Goodness must become the strong one, or else evil fascism will encroach, control, and ultimately defeat you.

Ask Boldly Like A Persistent Child
“You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask. You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it for your pleasures.” (James 4:2-3 WEB)
A child’s persistence is amazing. I know it firsthand. When my three year old daughter Maeleth asks me for something, she keeps asking and doesn’t give up until she gets an answer.
“Daddy, I want that. Can I have that please?”
She asks and waits for an answer. The answer may be yes, no or later, but she expects an answer.
All of us have desires for good things but some of us are afraid to ask God due to certain wrong beliefs.
God’s word says that you don’t have because you don’t ask God in prayer.
“What if I ask too much? I’m afraid that God will think I’m so greedy and selfish.”
“I don’t deserve it. My sins are too great. All I ask is for mercy to be saved.”
Dear brethren, as an earthly father I would give anything that my daughter wants as long as it’s within my means and if the thing she asks for is good/safe for her. I must also give it at the right time for her own good.
If imperfect fathers like me can have that kind of generosity and thoughtful consideration towards their children, what more our perfect Abba Father whose essence is Love?
““Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened. Or who is there among you, who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!” (Matthew 7:7-11 WEB)
He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and His presence fills Heaven and earth which He owns. Nothing is too hard for Him to fulfill.
“...your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him.” (Matthew 6:8 WEB)
Before you even speak your prayer, God already knows what’s in your mind and heart.
Still, He wants you to ask Him so that He will grant you your heart’s desires.
He won’t force something you if you don’t ask or give consent—He honors your free will.
If your concern is that your sins disqualify you from receiving anything good from God, then look to the cross.
At the cross, Jesus was beaten, pierced and smitten by God’s fiery wrath for the sins of the world, so that all your sins have been completely punished in Jesus’ body.
Your sins are no longer standing in the way between you and God.
The wages of sin is death and those wages have already been righteously paid in full.
When God looks at your Book of Remembrance in Heaven, it’s spotlessly clean because all your sins were transferred to Jesus’ account—and Jesus paid for those sins by His shed blood and His death.
Your records show that you’re perfectly righteous, just like Jesus!
So ask boldly and persistently for all your needs and for the good things you desire, like a child who believes that God is most delighted to hear your voice and that He loves to answer your prayers.
That’s the kind of pure faith that pleases God.
You qualify to receive God’s blessings not because your behavior is good, but because you’re righteous in Christ thanks to Jesus’ finished work at the cross!
God will surely give you the good things you ask for in His own way and at the perfect time—have faith in Him. Till then, rest assured that your prayers are in the process of being fulfilled!

Description:
Our body always tells us the truth, and our mind, the great trickster, on the contrary, always fools us, controls us, confuses us, play with us. So, it is very important to challenge our thoughts, our beliefs, whether they are serving us or tricking us, whether they are the truth or just some facts.
Why do we believe what we believe? What do you believe about money? Work? Your body? Relationships? Who told us? Is it the truth when everyone is saying "it" to you? That are our questions.
Angela Spaxman, Canadian, a former Forrest Engineer, came to Hong Kong two decades ago, one of most pioneering and respectable Coaches in Hong Kong, now a Senior Personal & Corporate Coach. Being a coach, a trainer, a teacher, we actually really interested in ourselves, in our mindset. Lately, first time in my life, at the age of 50+, I got Eczema 10 times in three months, while Angela got back pain, shoulder pain and legs pain in various times, seriously enough to draw attention to ourselves, our bodies, our believes.
We have to ask ourselves, what is really going on? What are the emotions we haven't expressed? Anger? Guilt? Sadness? What are the real issues? Angela will share her insights on what to believe, and what not; and how she treated her back pain and other pain, without too much drama, and visiting doctors. Also, she shared some very interesting and powerful story, to help us understand the Power of Our Mind. Thanks for watching.
