Freedom



Things are definitely beginning to change quickly now. The foundation of the dark ones world is now crumbling from aged decay. Finally the ultimate controller of the darkness is under investigation, the big companies who control and run this country are being called on the carpet for their crimes. While they don’t seem to be going to jail for these crimes, at least they are being recognized. The citizens of this country also seem to be saying enough is enough and challenging the banks for their crimes, thank goodness. It seems as if daily a wee bit more of the dark is exposed or knocked down allowing us to view the truth at last, and this is just the beginning. I think when all is said and done we will be shocked by what is revealed.

If anyone had doubts that things were happening and change was headed our way, I think it will be obvious now that the light is shining brighter. I hope now the masses will take the ultimate challenge and leap off into the unknown with trust in their hearts that the new world is where we are headed and all will be well if they make the journey. Some will remain steadfast to the old ways and will remain behind and I wish them well. For those taking the leap I say have courage and listen to your heart. Your spirit and higher self is showing you the way. Surrender to your higher self and the universe and say “okay, I’ll do it your way, for surely you know best and I trust you will provide for me.”
For so long now we have been separated from ourselves, we have been enticed into letting Government tend to our needs and provide for us, and we have forgotten that we are more than capable of living our lives on our own. We have lost our deep connection to the earth and nature as well and without this connection we are vulnerable and unaware. Our senses have become dull and rusted and we no longer use them to navigate through our lives on a steady basis. We don’t have the time to stay connected, as we are busy trying to survive in our lives, working long hours for a pay check that our Government pulls from our pockets. In the new world this slavery will end and we will be free and have the time to reconnect with life.

Man Will Prevail


July 6th was the 50th anniversary of the death of the great American writer, William Faulkner. Faulkner spoke on overcoming soullessness in order that humankind could find eternity through transcendent creativity.
 An excerpt:
“Our tragedy today is a general and universal physical fear so long sustained by now that we can even bear it. There are no longer problems of the spirit. There is only the question: When will I be blown up? Because of this, the young man or woman writing today has forgotten the problems of the human heart in conflict with itself which alone can make good writing because only that is worth writing about, worth the agony and the sweat.
    He must learn them again. He must teach himself that the basest of all things is to be afraid; and, teaching himself that, forget it forever, leaving no room in his workshop for anything but the old verities and truths of the heart, the old universal truths lacking which any story is ephemeral and doomed - love and honor and pity and pride and compassion and sacrifice. Until he does so, he labors under a curse. He writes not of love but of lust, of defeats in which nobody loses anything of value, of victories without hope and, worst of all, without pity or compassion. His griefs grieve on no universal bones, leaving no scars. He writes not of the heart but of the glands.
    Until he relearns these things, he will write as though he stood among and watched the end of man. I decline to accept the end of man. It is easy enough to say that man is immortal simply because he will endure: that when the last ding-dong of doom has clanged and faded from the last worthless rock hanging tideless in the last red and dying evening, that even then there will still be one more sound: that of his puny inexhaustible voice, still talking. I refuse to accept this. I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. The poet’s, the writer’s, duty is to write about these things. It is his privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past.”
