Answer:
What the human beeing calls life refers to the material body that has "life" and its counter as death, is when the body stops working. They consider that life is learning while walking on a path that you chose by your actions until your body stops.
The Real Answer:
You were born as what you call spirit on a Quasar star by the power Source LOVE and will of God itself. The Light Civilizations evolved to a state that cannot consider a beeing to be inteligent without learning all meanings, aspects and emotions there are to learn, so they imbue you in on a physical body that is capable of this specific development. You are corrently on the 4 dimension of consiousness. and you are part of god with all its capabilities.
There are several kinds of energetic beeings, wich they are connected to the DNA contain on a body. This only alows spirits of the contained DNA to reborn on this bodies.
The Human beeing was created to fill a specific purpose that was needed specificly for these Entities. They didnt feel conected to God and they asked to evolve again, learn what pain is, so they could consider their future world a better place ratter then good without meaning.
Living on a physical body is to Uplift the consiouness and understanding of the Omniverse.

Difference between communism and capitalism?
A conversation is communication between multiple people. It is a social skill that is not difficult for most individuals. Conversations are the ideal form of communication in some respects, since they allow people with different views on a topic to learn from each other. A speech, on the other hand, is an oral presentation by one person directed at a group. For a successful conversation, the partners must achieve a workable balance of contributions. A successful conversation includes mutually interesting connections between the speakers or things that the speakers know. For this to happen, those engaging in conversation must find a topic on which they both can relate to in some sense. Those engaging in conversation naturally tend to relate the other speaker's statements to themselves. They may insert aspects of their lives into their replies, to relate to the other person's opinions or points of conversation.
Communication is a process whereby information is enclosed in a package and is discreeted and imparted by sender to a receiver via a channel/medium. The receiver then decodes the message and gives the sender a feedback. Communication requires that all parties have an area of communicative commonality. There are auditory means, such as speech, song, and tone of voice, and there are nonverbal means, such as body language, sign language, paralanguage, touch, eye contact, and writing. Communication is thus a process by which we assign and convey meaning in an attempt to create shared understanding. This process requires a vast repertoire of skills in intrapersonal and interpersonal processing, listening, observing, speaking, questioning, analyzing, and evaluating. It is through communication that collaboration and cooperation occur.[2]....
In terms of the definition, a state in anarchy is a state in which there is no recognized government ruling over the people and people self-organize and defend. There is currently no region of the world in anarchy. The closest the world has to anarchy is the current situations in Somalia, Bir Tawil, and Antarctica.
Somalia comes close because the national government cannot extend its power to the entire territory, which has innumerable local warlords. However, the presence of these warlords serves to be a form of recognized government, which is why Somalia is more properly classified as a failed state (a state where the national government cannot compete with local warlords to the extent that the local warlords control more than the national government).
Bir Tawil comes close because both Egypt and Sudan reject the territory as not belonging to either of them and the territory is the only land on the six inhabited continents to have terra nullius status. However, as Bir Tawil has no settled population, it fails the requirement of having people in the territory to be an anarchy.
Antarctica has no permanent population and has its government arrangements taken care of by international treaties, so while there is no government over the people who are currently living in Antarctica, they are responsible to the signatory countries of the Antarctica countries. This means that there is a recognized authority.
Which countries has had democracy in political systems?
America, of course (though the American democracy is different than most as it protects the rights of the minority).
There have been many other countries who also have had democratic systems - in fact, any system in which the people vote is considered a democracy (even if the people only have the choice to vote for people in the same political party).

The president of Cuba since 1940 was Batista, his enemy was Fidel Castro who had a strong belief in Communism. He ran for the Cuban House of Representatives but troops led by Batista stopped him and he was exiled to Mexico. In 1956, Castro invaded Cuba; they were crushed but escaped to the mountains--he was able to get communist followers slowly. In 1957, Castro forced waged guerrilla wars against the Cuban government. In 1959, Batista resgined and fled the country, this left Castro able to take control of the Cuban government and become dictator. Castro wanted Americans out of Cuba which led to bad ties with the U.S. Currently, Cuba is still communist, but ties between the two countries have improved, somewhat.
