We Know There Is a Looming Problem, What Next?
I don't pretend to have all the answers and that's why I am here to find solutions with you, dear reader. We have been taught a form of learned helplessness since we started our programming in school. Sitting waiting for the teacher to call on us when we raise our hands. Waiting for bells to ring to let us know when we can get up and stand in a line for our lunch. Rush, rush, rush with no real purpose except to spew out facts and figures that have no meaning many years later. It's all by design.
What next? We are told that the "Great Reset" is upon us, but were we asked if we wanted upheaval and change? Why must we be pushed into the "Fourth Industrial Age"? What does that even mean?

We Can Choose Another Way
I am not going to be overly optimistic and yet I am still hopeful. I have seen a lot of change in the last several years to make me think there are more and more people waking up to the lies and deception that are EVERYWHERE. And it isn't hopeless. REALLY.
The powers-that-shouldn't be make the problems seem so large so distract and keep us overwhelmed so we do nothing. But by looking around in your communities, and seeing what needs to be done to help others you will be making a HUGE difference.
We need regular people running for positions on school boards, county commissions, and even the mayor in your cities and towns. We need citizens looking at the minutes and attending meetings (and even doing write-ups on blogs or papers) to see what is happening within various legislative bodies. There is no more sitting on the sidelines, all hands on deck. You ARE needed.
So what say you? Are you ready to see what can be done to make your communities a better place to live? The more we talk to each other and interact respectfully the less divide and conquer programming will effect us. There is no "other" when we know each other by face and name. Just like in the days of barn raising, EVERYONE was needed. EVERYONE stepped up to help in some way, big or small.
I will be focusing on solutions in my community called FREEDOM SOLUTIONS. My hope is that I will inspire others to feel less overwhelmed and more empowered to more forward with ideas and achievable goals. I also look forward to hearing your ideas and real world examples of what you are doing in your community to stave off the overlords (AKA "the elite") and decentralize our lives once more.
Remember, nothing worthwhile was ever easy. God bless and be well!
