Too tired to rant...

It wasn't that long ago when I had an opinion for just about everything, particularly politics.  I wasn't embarrassed or ashamed about my social views and I was even bold enough to even talk religion.  I kept up on current events and watched the news (Daily Show, Stephen Colbert) in order to keep my bitching relevant with the times.  Now everything is different, a fire has burned out inside me, a passion for knowledge died away leaving me cold and empty.  At first I was concerned, I mean it was my trade mark to be witty and relevant about news and events but all that changed when I just woke up and didn't care, it was like a blindfold being removed.  I just realized this morning that its not that I don't care about current event or politics or war or the occupy movement, or starving children all around the world; its just that I'm too tired to stand on my soapbox day after day trying to share the truth with people, trying to open their eyes to how the world really is.  Maybe that zeal and cynicism will return in time but then I just ask myself;  Where are we going and why are we in this hand basket?


Until next time...

Occupy thoughts and ideas

In this time of civil unrest and disobedience I am left with but one emotion.  Hell Ya!!! My entire life I have known that something was wrong, that the world was an illusion.  What do you mean by illusion you may ask?  Well an illusion is a trick a form of misdirection if you will.  When the world was introduced to the 24 hour news media in the late eighties the game changed.  We now had master illusionists with more time that ever to influence the ready to follow masses.  As this social oddity became the norm, stories seemed to sensationalize, turning from the objective viewpoint, to the ratings minded news conglomerates. My earliest memory of reality T.V. was the Oliver North trial.  I was too young to follow the trial in any meaningful way but I remember thinking it odd that it took up so much air time.  Then came O.J. which opened the flood gates to this strange social phenomena of keeping us, the people so entranced in the lives of famous people that our ideas of reality shifted.  This willingness to be pacified gave the powers that be, a freedom they had never experienced in this country.  Next thing you know bills are being signed and legislation is being passed before they are even read.  What are the news corporations doing? Sure they are covering it, but the headline stories are of fear and doom, this keeps the population too drained and tired to evaluate what is happening right under their noses, from their elected officials whose sworn duty is to represent them.  In my humble opinion I think the whole lot should be fired, lets get some real people in the office not the same old families and the same old money.  I challenge you to take the time and occupy the thoughts and ideas of your friends and loved one by planting the seeds of compassion and wisdom, through your actions and words.  March on my friends, let your voices ring, do not give up, and do not falter, our time has finally come!!!

Stupid politics

First and foremost it is important to give you, the reader, a quick synopsis of my platform.  The government as we know it is a farce.  How is it that so many crooked people can still have jobs?!?  It's like a recycling program for otherwise unemployable white men.  I have a number of years in business management and if an employee dropped the ball as often as my government drops the ball for its people, I would kick them to the curb, quickly.  I am not going to advertise my ignorance by quoting some obscure legislation.  I do know however, in the depth of my being that I am being lied to, we all are.  What can we do about it?  In a strange way I think we are all fortunate, more has changed socially, technologically and spiritually in the span of my short life than has in the any other 30 year span throughout the entire known history of humans.  Hell, it took thousands of years before we learned to tie a sharpened rock to a stick.  In closure I encourage all of you to ask questions, on your blogs, to your friends, and to your elected officials.  We as U.S. citizens have three duties; Jury duty, voting and the census.  Let's add one more, lets ask more questions, don't blindly follow, educate yourself and then you will truly be free.


Till next time my friends be well and be aware.
