Youth Problems Solved 4000 Years Ago
“There’s no meaning to life,” said Josh, a 16-year-old Afro-American tenth grader from Columbia, SC. Researcher and author, Olivia Ashley, has published a free e-book for parents with troubled youth like Josh, a 21st Century “Adam.” It’s an insider look into the “Genesis” story about “Adam” and “Eve.” The “Genesis Garden of Eden” was both a physical place in Ancient Babylonia and a spiritual (psychological) quest of youthful minds for meaning in life. World-renowned psychiatrist William Glasser says, “All youths look for lifelines to the meaning of life.” Babylonian priests created a universal symbol of youth searching for meaning in life by overlapping two equilateral triangles. One triangle symbolized his physical image with sides as described in the Genesis Trinity: (1) Father (and mother), (2) son (or daughter), (3) spirit (of discipline). The second triangle was his psychological or spiritual image. The three sides were (1) Mind or Will—freedom of choice, (2) Heart—emotions, (3) Individuality (EGO). This made man a living soul by combining his two images. CLICK http://www.happyparentsecrets.com The design formed a six-pointed star whose heart they labeled the “Garden of Eden.” The heart is fenced by six thoughts of God that were put into their head when they were born. They called them “the rights of man’s birthright” and labeled them: "Goal," "Freedom," "Effort," "Patience," “Love” and “Dedication.” This is youth’s psychological DNA. Research proves those rights are essential for man’s physical and psychological survival. Every youth has the right to those sacred six rights with which to cultivate his or her garden and find meaning in life with rewards of health, peace, prosperity and happiness. “Genesis” says this: “And the Lord God took the man and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and keep it.” The story of Josh, that modern-day Adam, waves a red flag before parents and schools: If Josh fails to find and cultivate those six rights of his birthright, there’s chaos in Eden — “… no meaning to life.” Olivia Ashley is an education psychologist and author of parent and teenage books and a romance novelist.
