THE CARROT ON THE END OF THE STICK

I am late starting my blog. I had a busy Morning. I had an appointment with a podiatrist. A few weeks ago, I had a big toe swell up and look like an angry beet. I had to have a callous removed and a course of antibiotics. This was a follow-up appointment. Everything is fine now.

I feel very optimistic about the world despite the horrible news. Was the attack on the French satirical paper a false flag or was it really perpetrated by a Muslim group? One hates to be that cynical, but the cabal has much greater interest in keeping us afraid and divided than any perceived motives of a Muslim group. We will know soon as activities of this kind cannot be hidden for long.

The old world is coming down piece by piece and a new world is shining through the illusory haze. The old world made by fear is about over. We have the last desperate gasps of those who are reluctantly relinquishing power.

I know, we are tired of waiting. We have been through a great deal and the promise of the new world, created by love, seems like the carrot on the end of the stick. This is not the time for despair. We are very close to seeing some major changes. I know I am not a prophet. I predicted the economy wouldn't last through December without a major crash. Here it is January 7th and it is still limping along. It hasn't gone over the cliff put it it is leaning over heavily. The government, the banks, or whoever is in control has been supporting the stock market and neglecting all else that could help. The stock market goes up while the economy of the people stagnates or slips backwards. The economy is suppose to drive the stock market- the stock market cannot pull the economy out of its doldrums. Firing up the stock market to move the economy is like harnessing a mule to a huge building and expecting to pull it off its foundation. No matter how much one whips the mule the building won't budge.

All the money used to fire up the stock market is borrowed money. Eventually the piper needs to be payed. It appears to be one huge gambling casino. It is not sustainable.

Instead of looking at the carrot on the end of the stick, we need to look for the love in our own lives. The future and everything it brings will be here soon enough. Let us enrich and enhance our relationships, now. Let us look around us. Is there somebody that needs encouragement? Is there somebody who needs to know they are loved? Is there somebody, who might be irritating, but needs to have someone see through their disguise and reach out to them? Let us take the risk of reaching out to all the folks around us, the crabby ones, dull ones, the bright ones, the proud ones, the frightened ones, all of them. Everybody needs to be loved and they need it now.

The love is there. Let it pour through. The more we love, the more the love comes back to us. We need to be sure we start with ourselves. We can't give what we don't have. The good news is that we have it. We are filled up to the brim with love. We just need to let ourselves know it. We do have to know it. All that we have to do is sit quietly for a moment and ask the universe to wrap its arms around us. We will feel the love.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
