It is getting a little hazy now, but
when I went out to do the chores, the Sun seemed twice as bright as
it is normally. Dazzling, I suppose it was because of the cold, clear
air that moved in overnight. A few days ago they announced it as an
arctic vortex and our temperatures were to be close to zero. They
seemed to back off of that dire prediction and now, 22 degrees F is
predicted for tonight. I am pleased about that because I have new
lambs due today and tomorrow. We had one lamb born yesterday; I was
happy to see he/she {I haven't checked yet} is healthy and spritely.
She {I think she is a she} is following her Mother around the pasture
and like all newborn lambs, she a seems delighted with life.
I was surprised that she was a single
birth, that is not common in the sheep I have known. I, also, was
surprised that she is white. Her mom is medium brown and her dad is
white with a few light tan markings.
So what am I going to talk about today?
The world economic system is undergoing great change. The Western
markets are imploding and the Bric nations, led by China and Russia,
are on the upswing. Russia and China have been increasing there gold
holdings and it is rumored that they are going to back their currency
with precious metals. I cannot make sense of the stock market. I have
been looking at the numbers, a few times a day, for forty years and
it now baffles me. As European markets get shaky. Investment in the
U.S. Market is seen as a refuge; therefore it rises, despite all
other indications.
I have no idea how long the economy can
limp along. So much is purely psychological and has to do with the
faith of the people. Folks in key positions, who are in the know,
have made preparations for the coming events. We will experience
upheaval and confusion for awhile, but things will be okay. We need
to leave, the old system, of rapacious capitalism behind.
It is obvious, that when a person is
welcomed into the world, his/her basic security should be assured.
Poverty must become a distant memory. Fear of lack must disappear as
a human condition. Everybody deserves to live in comfort. It will
happen.
As our social systems collapse, folks
of like mind will be attracted to each other. Those who are beginning
to 'see' will assist those just opening their eyes. Like minded
people will create the healing/learning centers I have been talking
about. They will be crucial in helping people live on the Earth in
accordance with our Mother and the rest of creation.
I keep promising to take one of our
social institutions, at a time, and discuss the need for relearning.
Instead, I just nibble around the edges. I follow my intuition. I
never know what I want to write about until the keyboard is in front
of me.
Hey! Not a single April fools joke. I
told Jamie I would abstain from any April fools jokes. She doesn't
believe me. I guess I will have to think of a good one.
Happy Friday!
Love and Peace, Gregg
