My Philosophy in Life from 1969:

• As humans, it is our nature to be on a quest.
  Our origin is our past, and we are heading for the future with many stopovers along the way.
  There is no final destination—just stopovers in our journey to discover ourselves.
  It is the journey that makes us who we are.
• The more emotion we pour into our journey, the more we improve. Emotion is the driving force behind achievement.
• Without emotion, we are nothing. Whether positive or negative, we must give it our all.
• The “positive” and the “negative” are simply tools for our journey.
• We have the freedom of choice and the power to reason. Exercise this power, and you will transform. The choices you make can bring happiness or sadness to yourself and others.
• Anything and everything you want or could possibly want has already been provided or laid out for you by God. You must make your move to help yourself.

Explore your surroundings.
Do your best to be aware of your environment. Everything around you is there to be learned from—you can even learn from distractions. However, to achieve your goals, you must stay focused on your chosen activity at any given moment.

Experience the journey.
Remember your experiences—this is easier said than done. At the end of each day, thank God for all your experiences by helping others. Whether positive or negative, be grateful that you are alive to experience them and use them to become a better person. Never blame God for the negatives in your life. Learn from all your experiences. Learn to forgive yourself and others. Forgiveness is a great equalizer and helps bring balance to your life. Don’t get wrapped up in the negatives. Learn from them, and move on to be a better person the next day.

Try to be happy. Smile and dance more often. Reminisce. Discover yourself.
The happiness switch is automatically turned on when you dance. It takes a lot of effort to stay angry when you are dancing.

Be balanced, share, and try to love. Practice CORU: Care, Openness, Respect, and Understanding.

When your corporeal life ends, you will be held accountable for all your thoughts, words, and deeds. This is then carried forward to the spirit world, where your journey continues.

Only 5 Things to Do or Follow:

1. Love: Love transcends all.

2. Share: Humans are born selfish. Parents, guardians, and adults must teach children to share.

3. Do Not Cheat: One of the hardest things to do. Almost instinctively, we try to cheat when seeking something we lack or deeply desire.

4. Do Not Maliciously Deprive: To take away, remove, deny, keep away, or withhold from enjoyment or possession with malice. Malicious deprivation of life, education, food, and other essentials is deeply harmful.

5. Do Not Insult: As children, we learn to tease and sometimes insult others. When teased, children often become very angry and emotionally hurt. As we grow into adults, we become experts at insulting each other. Sadly, some battles, wars, and even killings have been started by simple insults.

Remember me (Frank Maletsky) by these words:
“Do not Cheat. Do not Insult. Love, but never maliciously deprive. Share, seek balance, and you will be enlightened.”

From this personal philosophy of life, the idea of Universal Stewardship was born.
