“You can say what you please
but what you say does not have to please.
Just be careful
not too many get unpleased.”
This is a quote from an article called “Freedom of Speech” written by L. Ron Hubbard — Founder of the Scientology religion — on the 15th of February, 1982.

Safeguard and Improve Your Environment - The Way to Happiness
We live in a world where not everyone cares to look beyond their daily woes at the scenery around them. Nor do many care about the world and its natural resources and its beautiful wonders. Thank god there are those few who do think about the environment and who do spend immeasurable energies to better it.
All of Man has a responsibility to safeguard and improve the environment in which they live. It is up to us to do our part in addition to encouraging others to do theirs too.
The Way to Happiness is a book by L. Ron Hubbard which delivers a set of basic morals for our modern world. You can greatly enhance others you associate with by having them apply these precepts. Precept # 12 is “Safeguard and Improve Your Environment.”
L. Ron Hubbard wrote in a section called “Help take care of the planet”:
“The idea that one has a share in the planet and that one can and should help care for it may seem very large and to some, quite beyond reality. But today what happens on the other side of the world, even so far away, can affect what happens in your own home. …
“Cut down too many forests, foul too many rivers and seas, mess up the atmosphere and we have had it. The surface temperature can go roasting hot, the rain can turn to sulfuric acid. All living things could die.
“One can ask, ‘Even if that were true, what could I do about it?’ Well, even if one were simply to frown when people do things to mess up the planet, one would be doing something about it. Even if one only had the opinion that it was just not a good thing to wreck the planet and mentioned that opinion, one would be doing something.
“Care of the planet begins in one’s own front yard. it extends through the area one travels to get to school or work. it covers such places as where one picnics or goes on vacation. The litter which messes up the terrain and water supply, the dead brush which invites fire, these are things one need not contribute to and which, in otherwise idle moments, one can do something about. Planting a tree may seem little enough but it is something. …
“There are many things people can do to help take care of the planet. They begin with the idea that one should. They progress by suggesting to others that they should.
“Man has reached the potential capacity to destroy the planet. He must be pushed on up to the capability and actions of saving it. It is, after all, what we’re standing on.
“If others do not help safeguard and improve the environment, the way to happiness could have no roadbed to travel on at all.”
This is quite true!

The Way to Happiness - Flourish and Prosper
The Way to Happiness is a book by L. Ron Hubbard which delivers a set of basic morals for our modern world. You can greatly enhance others you associate with by having them apply these precepts.
Precept # 21 - “Flourish and Prosper”
Ever feel like someone is against you? Have you ever wrongly felt like you were a victim of someone’s harassment?
L. Ron Hubbard wrote: “Sometimes others seek to crush one down, to make nothing out of one’s hopes and dreams, one’s future and one, himself.” Ever experience that? Unfortunately there are people who want others to succumb.
Mr. Hubbard further stated: “The real handling of such a situation and such people, the real way to defeat them is to flourish and prosper.”
Definitely an important datum in today’s society.
The Way to Happiness - Fulfill Your Obligations
The Way to Happiness is a book by L. Ron Hubbard which delivers a set of basic morals for our modern world. You can greatly enhance others you associate with by having them apply these precepts.
Precept # 15 - “Fulfill Your Obligations”
Fulfilling your obligations is obviously necessary in any society. Personally, one must be honest and keep his integrity in. He must deliver as promised. If you pay for something, you should have the money to back it up. If you say you are going to clean the car, then you need to clean the car. If you know you have to file documents by a certain deadline, well then you have to do that. If you know your kids are hunger and they expect you to get them some food, well, this is your duty.
L. Ron Hubbard wrote: “The way to happiness is very hard to travel when one is burdened with the weight of obligations which one is owed or which he has not discharged.”

Very spiritually enlightening! An interesting portrayal of spiritual values. All religions share this quality.

Precept # 16 - “Be Industrious”
This is a great one. It shows you that power of choice is cause and that things don’t just happen, they are made to happen.
L. Ron Hubbard wrote: “Work is not always pleasant. But few are unhappier than those who lead a purposeless, idle and bored existence … Morale is boosted to high highs by accomplishment. In fact it can be demonstrated that production is the basis of morale. … The way to happiness is a high road when it includes industriousness that leads to tangible production.”

Precept # 8 - “Do Not Murder”
A hard-hitting message.
L. Ron Hubbard wrote: “Murder justly bears the highest priority in social prevention and retaliation. … The way to happiness does not include murdering your friends, your family, or yourself being murdered.”
We all have a responsibility to protect our fellows, even if we don’t know them. They are human and they have a right to live.

Precept # 3 - “Don’t Be Promiscuous”
SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! Ooouuuuch!
If sex is a means of procreation, i.e., creating a larger family and having kids, why then would one abuse such activity which often ends up in nasty fights?
One should be faithful to your sexual partner.
L. Ron Hubbard wrote: “Sex is a big step on the way to happiness and joy. There is nothing wrong with it if it is followed with faithfulness and decency.”
