Thank you 4-um friends for your insight, compassion, wisdom, and strength. I often witness how powerful these gifts freely shapes perceptions, expands the boundless beauty in our own little worlds, and enriches our lives.

It doesn't cost anything to be civil and polite.

And there is an excellent return on investment. : ) " If you cannot govern yourself, you will be governed by assholes. " Randge, Poet de Forum, 1/11/11 "Life's tough, and even tougher if you're stupid." --John Wayne

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.

XOXOXOXO Yes! Thank you Abraxas, for your astute, compassionate and clear-eyed comments! Thank you to everyone here (not a troll) who, despite layers of heart bandaging cynicism, still carry hope in their hearts by seeking the truth beneath the MEdia-is-the-MATRIX wallpaper with which they wrap (or is that rap?) us all, like mummies! Kudos to everyone who CAN handle the truth, for facing the Truth IS the only way to freedom! The direction home is the direction directly into the center of our consciousness, deep into the heart of our matter, the source of the life force which beats our hearts and expands our minds, at whatever rate which we allow! Pay less attention to the outer clothing of events, fascinated upon the projected image which results from invisible processes of physics and metaphysics and instead, apply more discernment to the CAUSE of external manifestations, Consciousness: The Consciousness which organizes this living Universe and our individual consciousness with which we are generously gifted in order to understand and participate in the joy of creation. Radical means "to the root" and it is the root cause of events which we experience in time that we must discover for ourselves in order to get into the game, the real game. Not the game of follow your faux leadership to hell-on-earth! Not that game which the darkened souls must play, dog fuck dog/dog eat dog, but the real game of Self discovery, in which the keys to the power behind creation are found by diligent focused effort to clear the mind of all bullshit and the heart of ALL impediments to joy. There can be no reason not to be cheerful when your vision is large enough to take in the bigger picture. This very long and drawn out experiment in living disconnected lives, living as subjects to those with fixed convictions of empowerment exercising their limited vision, because we allow it, is over as soon as enough human beings decide to change their attention, to focus on what is permanent, not merely temporary. Cosmic losers can't actually win! Even in our broken world, it is the least deluded who actually make things happen, the ones who see clearly and act in good faith even when the cult surrounding them does not. Easy to shake the trees to scare the squirrels into leaving their nuts behind, harder to plant trees and to nurture them. When self-delusion becomes contagious, and logic itself is banished, in result, you get the laughable "obamination" of the broken, hackable web site for Bamma-no-care. Fools talk themselves into evil and acting deceptively but still walk around naked, clothed in the illusion that they are finished creations, that their rigidly closed adult mind is the pinnacle of creation's intent! The mind of a child is a mind FULLY IN THE MOMENT, not yet saddled with a personal history of painful failures nor disempowered by the extremely bad habit of attempting to gain favor and self-esteem by conformity to the will of those in power. To see with new eyes means to clean the accumulated detritus of illusions accepted as truth (before we knew better) out of our mind's eye! We did not all come here, at this "interesting" time, just to watch a bunch of silly rich people play out their half-baked, abortive game of "Rule the World", totalitarian-style! We came for the grand wake up call, coming to a moment near you, in which the wallpaper of lies is ripped away and we stand, shivering together, in a brave new day. May all your illusions be sweeter than the corrupted bullshit which the cult supplies all life long, 24x365. May we all meet in wonder and universal gratitude in the dawn of graduation day! Thank you 4-um friends for your insight, compassion, wisdom, and strength. I often witness how powerful these gifts freely shapes perceptions, expands the boundless beauty in our own little worlds, and enriches our lives.
Con games cannot sustain themselves forever!
Lies have a shorter shelf-life than insights and cheaters only prosper for a brief time!
Easy to make buildings fall down in free-fall time frames but harder to build them up.
Easy to tear communities and nations apart into divided impotence, but harder to heal them and unite them in common/mutual self-interest.
Anger? As a first reaction to get your a$$ moving, once you see through the Media Matrix and set yourself free from your lifelong mind control collar. Sustainable? Not long enough to screen your intention to be free from the control freaks monitoring all comms! Our ultimate weapon is laughter and amused detachment at the folly of the would-be emperors while their plans evaporate! Fear mongers HATE it when the FEAR card doesn’t work. The humiliation of being seen as merely a naked ape is THEIR big fear. Laugh the bastards off the stage! Tell your friends that we can build a real civilization from the ruins of the totalitarian game!

"Resolve to serve no more,” he says, “and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces.”

Plus it's as uplifting as happens in presenting flowers to your better half and enhances the image of the thanker in his showing of appreciation of your efforts so you're more likely to help out again in the future.

Yesterday I overheard one waitress say to another server about some elderly person who had entered their restaurant facility to be seated at their table and made the comment to this server:"Excuse me, please." One of the servers replied to mimick the guest by saying the following in a quite haughty manner,"Excuse me, please" and then walked off. When I overheard this, it explains why nobody wants to dine in a restaurant where the servers disrespect the guests.

The "joy" of dining in is long, long gone here.

If I want to dine in, I'll cook at home. Dining out is a different experience. I observe how the servers carry themselves and how they treat all the guests. This particular server went beyond the pale to insult a guest and received no reprimand from the host or the kitchen supervisor. Furthermore, the host was referring to a guest as "hoity toity". All this guest had asked was whether the kitchen served veggie burgers. It never once occurred to the idiot host that this guest was vegetarian or that their religious beliefs prohibited them from eating certain foods.

In a word.....lovely! Thank you!

that's awesome! We came for the grand wake up call, coming to a moment near you, in which the wallpaper of lies is ripped away and we stand, shivering together, in a brave new day.
To question is to value the ideal of truth more highly than the loyalties to nation, religion, race, or ideology.
