In the vernacular of mechanics, work is the force applied to an object multiplied by the
distance traveled. In other words, even if you push as hard as you can against an object,
if it isn’t moving, you aren’t producing work. Think about aspects of your life where you
seem to be putting forth a lot of effort but not getting anywhere. What forces or obstacles
are keeping you from making progress? What can you do to remove or mitigate the
effects of these forces or obstacles? Prayerfully record your impressions regarding these questions.
Well, the first thing I thought of as an 'obsticall that wont move' was family members. Lets admit it. They can be hard to get along with sometimes!
But as I think about it, really I'm the obstical to myself because I can choose wether or not to be annoyed with people.
So, I guess the answer to solving this problem would to practice loving and serving and speaking nicely and creating unity with my family.

History&Geography-Great British in the 1700s. 😃😃:-)
The 1700s in Great Britian was a major changing point in the history of the world.
England and Scotland united togoether to make Great Britian in 1707.
Although it was an industrious time for great Britian, the ordinary people still suffered while the royal families were getting more and more powerful.
Here are some reasons why Britians power was increasing in the 1700s:
The people were getting smarter and more literate.
They invented the industrial trade and they traded Spices, tabaccos, cloth, food, all sorts of stuff.
Also, they had the hugest navy, and their battleships were giant!
They got a prime minister and political parties(like they still have in British today)
They didnt let roman catholics rule, so their protesyant relitives did instead.
But for ordinary citizens, life wasn't so dandy.
If you couldn't work, you starved, and if you couldn't afford a doctor, or medical help, then you died.
So, I think the reason that Great British was so powerful during this time was because of the authoritive power, but or necicerily because the people were doing so great......
Ok, so about the British acts.
Here's a website that describes them:

I think its interesting how the British tried to get control by messing with property. They were taking over practicly everything they had, and I don't even want to think what it would be like if we hadn't revolted.
It makes me think about nowadays, and how the government is starting to inflict upon our property too, and it makes me wonder if we We will have to revolt, and if we do, who will be brave enough to stand?
