What are the safest and least corrupt cities in the world?

Aside from the above, I often feel like my life is doomed. It is. I'm not bright and don't have any job opportunities. My health situation is not curable where I currently am and to get to the place where it is curable I'd first need to be cured and educated, or some extreme luck would have to happen that changes the world for the better and my life as well.

I just ate a bunch of cheese and soar cream despite knowing that it is bad for me, although I don't have a list of symptoms that I experience after eating it. It is delicious and comforting after a day of my mind being torn apart by people that don't wish anything good for me. It appears like I am out of control of myself, but not getting enough sleep for days because some people for some reason wanted me to not sleep and they got it.

So I have fears that are very real. I don't act to prevent the stuff I fear from happening and they always end up happening. I hoped time would bring change for the better, but it just brought change for the worse in many ways.

I invite any responses I guess.

There is the intangible programming part and then there is the physical part of a computer. Are pixels like little lightbulbs that lit up and off from wired electricity that is sent to them with tiny wires all around the screen or how does it work? What materials go into making computer parts such as the screen, hard disc, processor, etc.? How did they work in the early days? How does the soundbox make sound? It's magical, cause I don't know the technicality of it. Very complex. What kind of cast moulds go into making this and so forth? People don't ask these kinds of questions about cars before they start driving them, and yet I'm wondering how does it work before I start programming them, if ever.

I know this is practically impossible for me, but I just want to ask anyway, is there any online resource that is really good at teaching math and science to beginners? I tried KhanAcademy, but it became impossible to figure out some algebra problem and so I stopped. I also don't like it's testing system. I heard about Delta Step, but haven't tried it yet. How to master math and science? It is the only way to survive in the 21st century western society, unless you have some other valuable skills or talents. I don't, and learning this might just be impossible so your response might fall on death ears.

I don't know what to do and when to do what. My strategy and planning in life is terrible. I have no good plan or strategy for the next 5 years, let alone for the next 20 years, yet I have been trying to make it for too long. Something is not right then. Something is not right.

Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.

If you miss the present moment, you miss your appointment with life. That is very serious!

Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?

Respect life, revere life. There is nothing more holy than life, nothing more divine than life.

If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. And, if you are at peace, you are living in the present.

Nothing ever exists entirely alone. Everything is in relation to everything else.

Have good trust in yourself … not in the One that you think you should be, but in the One that you are.

As a bee gathering nectar does not harm or disturb the color and fragrance of the flower; so do the wise move through the world.

One must be deeply aware of the impermanence of the world.

Treat every moment as your last. It is not preparation for something else.

Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.

I'm not God, we all are God together. God is not just one thing, it is everything. I'm also not in control and I'm not the only one alive. I have a lot of work to do to grow, but I cannot do it because of people around, and inability to go someplace where I can sleep and study.
