It is 1:38PM. I am usually done
blogging by now. I am getting a late start because our cleaning lady,
who comes every other Thursday to shovel out the place, had to switch
to Wednesday. I think she is having a yard sale tomorrow. We went
out to breakfast in Isanti, then went to Cambridge, and did a little
shopping.
I often mention the collapse of world, as we
know it, many people agree, many don't see anything. Even those that
agree see different things. Many historians are fascinated with
political structures, and compare today with periods of other empire
collapses. Some of these comparisons are very detailed. Some folks
study the rise and crumbling of democracies. We have details of both
modern and ancient. The deterioration of the ancient Greek and
Roman democracies are well documented.
Most scholars would agree, that a full
fledged functioning democracy, never happened in America. It was a
struggle from the beginning. Folks, with power and wealth, always had
much greater influence over government decisions, than ordinary folk.
The vast majority of people were kept in servitude. But servitude, in
itself, is not such a bad thing, if we feel free and are well fed. It
doesn't take much, in the nature of material, to make one happy. If our body is well
and comfortable and we have a good relationship with an opposite [or
same] sex partner; what else do we want.
What else do we want? Well we want to
make sense and order of our universe. We don't want the nature of our
existence dictated by overlords. We don't want the feeling that we
are toiling so others can be rich. We want to know what freedom
really feels like. We are not interested in what passes off as
freedom via propaganda and other indoctrination.
Yes. We see the corruption. We know the
Earth, and our own bodies and minds, are being poisoned. We know that,
those in love with power and money, are willing to kill as many
people as they can, in so called terror attacks, in an effort to
promote war. War is their method of staying in power and maintaining
their wealth.
I could fill page after page of how
horrible it is. I don't want to do that. What I want to maintain, is
the collapse is a good thing, and a necessary thing. The inequality,
the poisoning of the Earth, the poverty and other afflictions of
Humankind will continue if the present banker/corporate structure
remains.
As long as the love of money is more
important than the love we have for each other; we are stuck.
But we are not stuck. The love we have
for each other is our true nature. In the absence of the those, who
have had their foot on our necks, for the last few thousand years, we
would create true democracy from the village forward. I will not say
'up'. There is no unit of government higher or lower than the
village.
We all see the symptoms of world
collapse differently. I have been paying attention to economic
factors. Put in any question about the economy into your search
engine. There are endless articles predicting collapse. Some
hysterical, some learned, some merely descriptive, some try to be
prophetic. There is a lot of smoke, how much fire is there? If one
just looks at the facts, the cold hard facts; it doesn't look good.
We can't keep kicking the fiat money can down the road. We continue
to create more money to pay off bad debt. This scenario has always
ended. And not well.
I don't want you to believe me, because
I say it, I am far, far from an expert in this field and I am a very
bad prophet. From what I can see, and I feel it in my bones, a
financial collapse is very close. That will lead the way.
This is nothing to be afraid of; it is
to be celebrated. Preparation, however, is in order. What would we do,
if we had the sudden absence of money, for a few months? What kind of
stores should we have in our pantries? There would be many people in
shock and disbelief, how can we best help them? How can we come
together and provide for each other?
I will be thinking of this and will
write more on it, Friday.
Everything will okay. We all have the
answers in our heart. We do love each other. The natural order of
life is love.
Love and Peace, Gregg
