How much more I enjoy Spring, when I can have fully open windows, and not just barely open ones. Oh yes, even in the greatest heat or cold, I refuse to completely surrender the open air, the natural sounds of the birds, the cicadas, crickets, and such. They are a real blessing. They help keep me plugged in to Gaia. These are strange times, when we have sealed ourselves in our buildings, thinking this is somehow beneficial to us - or to our pocketbook. Later generations will clearly see the sad nonsense this is, but us, the ones living in it, cannot even see, right in the midst of it. How unnatural, how diminishing it is to everything natural within us. It may be that, wearing this particular physical body with its various challenges has made me more sensitive to such things. That is likely. When we are young, we are strong, and we simply don’t notice such things. They go on, but our attention is elsewhere, and our strength and vitality seem endless. Oh yes, we’ve all been young many times - we all know. I call on the young ones, though, to wake-up. Step up out of the madness that this world calls sane, and have a good look at that. It really and truly is madness. Just because everyone on this earth says it’s not is quite meaningless - if it is. There’s my old sentence, again: it is what it is. The majority doesn’t rule; it’s just more easily led. People shout for democracy everywhere. Democracy is just mob rule. The US is not a democracy, but our children’s schools have been so dumbed down that the kids wouldn’t know that. It’s a republic, my friends; a democratic republic. Were it a true democracy, we’d have no states. We’d have mob rule, where the rural peoples would become the slaves and the serfs... Distributed by Tubemogul.
