Originally Answered: What was Abraham Lincoln’s early life like?
Abraham Lincoln’s early life was unimaginably difficult.
In his early years, he knew nothing of the hardships his family faced.
When Lincoln was old enough to understand his relationship with his family
and his surroundings, his family was living in Pigeon Creek, Indiana.
When the Lincoln’s moved to Pigeon Creek, they had little or nothing.
Thomas and Nancy could not read; they had no books, papers, or writing implements. Papers with words on them were of no use to them. They had an ax, rifle, sewing needle, cooking pot, a wagon and mules, and not much more.
They traded their wagon and mules for needed supplies.
When they moved to Indiana, they had no home and no place to stay. They found themselves living in the middle of the woods. They had to build a shelter.
Thomas and Nancy built a lean-to.
The lean-to was open to the weather on one side and when you went inside, you had to crouch down. They had dry grass to sleep on, and bear skins for blankets. Their food came from fish, birds, and animals. They had no fruit or vegetables at this time. Living under these conditions made life difficult. They survived these horrible conditions for over a year while they built a cabin.
Soon after moving to Pigeon Creek, their clothing began to wear out. Nancy was able to make clothes out of buckskin and she made moccasins for shoes. In the summertime, the children went naked. While Abraham was too young to work, he was of no use to Thomas. As Abraham grew, Thomas was able to sell his labor. Thomas worked Abraham as much as he could.
Thomas had no love for Nancy.
He worked with her from sunrise to sunset. The constant hard work took its toll on her. She became an old hag at thirty. Abraham described his mother as worn, and sad.
When Abraham was nine, his mother died of milk-sickness. It’s believed that life
was so difficult, Nancy welcomed death.
Thomas needed a new wife, and he went looking for her.
For three- or four-months during winter, he left Sarah and Abraham to take care of themselves while he was away. They were only ten and twelve. They almost starved.
If Thomas were gone much longer, he would have come home to two dead children.
Thomas was able to find a wife.
Unfortunately for Thomas and fortunately for Abraham, Thomas couldn’t control Sarah as easily as he could Nancy. Abraham loved his new mother. She made life at home bearable.
Thomas continued to hire Abraham to work in the surrounding area. Thomas kept all the money Abraham earned. Abraham felt that he was a slave and Thomas was his master.
If the hard work killed Abraham, Thomas would miss the income, not Abraham.
When Abraham was fourteen,
a family’s wagon broke down near their cabin. While the men worked on the wagon,
the man’s wife gathered the children together and read to them. Abraham was amazed
that the black marks on paper could tell a story. It was the first time anyone read to him,
and he wanted to learn to read. Abraham asked Sarah to help him convince Thomas to
allow him to go to school.
Thomas reluctantly let Abraham attend school.
Abraham lived and grew into a strong young man. He was smart.
He learned to read at fifteen.
At twenty-three, he began teaching himself grammar and law.
There are several themes and meanings which can be inferred from the quote,
“In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s life in your years”.
Live it Thoroughly. ← Listen, smile, agree…then do whatever you were going to do anyway. → You’re only here for a short visit. Don’t hurry, don’t worry.
And be sure to smell the flowers along the way.
It’s Not the Years in Your Life That Count. It’s the Life in Your Years – Quote Investigator
What did Abraham Lincoln mean by ‘In the end it’s not the years in your life that count?
It’s the magnesium in your years.’? – Quora

“If Abraham Lincoln didn’t say this, who did?
Well, this is an interesting case.
US President Barack Obama quoted Abraham Lincoln in his speech to the Democratic Lawmakers on the day before they passed the health care bill. The full quotation is “I am not bound to win, but I am bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody, who stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong”. The quotation was amazing but there is no documentary evidence that Lincoln said that. This quotation was used several times by President Ronald Reagan several times in his speeches. It can be guessed that Obama’s speech writer took it from there.
The fact is that every time you quote someone as great as Lincoln, your speech becomes much more effective. But the same fact makes people careless about checking the authenticity of the quotation. Due to this a lot of fake quotations go in the name of Lincoln. The fake quotations come into being when by mistake or by fantasy, a wrong quotation gets published. Once it is published, then, generally people take the written word to be authentic.
But it is very difficult to get to the actual roots of a fake quotation. Its origin mysteriously vanishes into the mayhem of the crowd. There are two books which enlighten us on the fake quotations, namely: They Never Said It by Paul Boller and also The Quote Verifier
by Ralph Keyes. Hope you like the answer. Thank you 🙂
Did Abraham Lincoln actually say, “It’s not the years in your life that count,
it’s the life in your years”? – Quora
Is it true what Abraham Lincoln declared that America will never be destroyed
from the outside, but it would rather be instead by how we did it from the inside?
—Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776, the “United Colonies” were declared to be
“Free and independent States;” but even then, the object plainly was not to declare their independence of one another or of the Union, but directly the contrary, as their mutual pledge and their mutual action before, at the time, and afterwards abundantly show.
But obviously, they were never dependent on the Union or each other for their national sovereignty, like they were Great Britain; and thus, they were “free and independent states” in the purest sense of the term, as noted from the start: We, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies solemnly publish and declare,
That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and that, as free and independent states, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do.
On the contrary, Lincoln’s defenders grasp at the Constitution as validating him—
despite that in reality, the Constitution did not abrogate any state’s national sovereignty, but on the contrary established the voters in each nation-state as their own supreme rulers, who could overrule their government at will, thereby creating true democracy.
And Lincoln’s lies were adopted by other dictators, in order to achieve similar conquests: And thus, Lincoln destroyed our Constitutional Republic under a rogue empire, which spread worldwide.
But sadly, even when confronted with the facts; Lincoln’s worshipers are so brainwashed by government as to his “greatness,” that they read this, and STILL defend him— despite that this means he conquered EVERYONE under an imperial oligarchy, through mass-murder and deception, by taking away free speech in the manner of all dictators and besieging the federal courts in order to do so.
Lincoln’s worshipers then robotically defend his actions as “saving the national union
from rebellion—-” which is a self-fulfilling delusion, since they turn a blind eye to proof
that the states NEVER FORMED a national union.
Instead, they simply insist that the state voluntarily chose to form a national union, and voluntarily subject themselves to such massacre under Lincoln by willingly giving up national sovereignty— despite that Lincoln claimed that no state ever HAD it, since no sane person would BELIEVE that they would do so.
For the obvious reason, no sane person would do so. Thus, it’s plain that Lincoln’s legacy— and worship— are purely irrational, as with any cult-religion that is based on emotional lifelong programming, rather than facts and reason.

Most people think that the events of the last two years were not premeditated and happened organically. That’s not the case.
The truth is, we are at war, and we have been under attack for the last two years from globalists who openly state they want a Great Reset.
These globalists want you to believe that the COVID-19 was from an accidental outbreak in China but there is more than enough empirical evidence that shows this virus was planned many years ago.
You will never hear this from the corporate media because they are the propagandist arm of the globalists perpetrating this attack.

and I talked about why women are MORE vulnerable than men to cardiometabolic disease.
Plus, we’ve got actionable tips.
LEVELS – A Whole New Level on Apple Podcasts
11 reasons why
Hormones (estrogens and androgens) change 
around age 35, impacting insulin sensitivity. Metabolic health decline is mostly silent. 
Systems could change in your body and not be detected by standard healthcare for 10-15 years.
Trauma shows up differently for women, and women have a higher risk of experiencing trauma.
Women are more susceptible to cerebral hypometabolism (when the body doesn’t use glucose the way it used to). This affects your
brain and can cause us not to feel as sharp as we used to. Women have double the rate of insomnia. 
Sleep disruption, lack of REM sleep, and sleep apnea are all associated with changes in your insulin and cortisol. Women can have a somewhat different stress response than men. If someone experiences certain health problems during pregnancy
it can 2x the risk of future heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Use of birth control pills increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. A study in England also shows that women receive about 60% more antibiotics than men, perhaps due to UTIs, and that affects microbiome diversity.
Women tend to be primary caregivers 
in society, even on top of other responsibilities.
Women have a more responsive immune system, leading to a higher chance of developing Alzheimer’s or autoimmune disease.
