The cleverest of all is the man who calls himself a fool at least once a month. — Dostoevsky

The greatest fear in the world is of the opinions of others. In the moment you are unafraid of the crowd you are no longer a sheep, you become a lion. A great roar arises in your heart, the roar of freedom. — Osho

My 7 wonders of the world:

1. To live

2. To love

3. To laugh

4. To dream

5. To feel

6. To hear

7. To see

A simple equation that once recognized can liberate you from all manner of suffering, confusion and slavery.

Big Pharma funds the media.

Media funds fear.

Fear funds dis-ease.

Dis-ease funds Big Pharma.

So, here’s my prescription: Free yourself from the fear narrative that is perpetually being programmed into us by the media, and throw your television in the fucking trash. P.S. this is not medical advice, but it should be.

If you believe in politics, crystals, paranormal phenomena, horoscopes, vaccines, and technology — please don’t tell me you have more faith in politicians, earth rocks, ghosts, star clusters, doctors, and computers than you do in yourself. Because if that’s the case you need to go back to square one and reevaluate everything in your life.

Some opinions of mine:

Climate change, like all change, is a part of life, and may or may not be a threat to our existence, but either way, there is nothing we can do about it. That said, the story that humans are causing climate change is both full of hubris and a lie. Humans can’t even make sure no one goes hungry, so we certainly aren’t capable of altering the climate. And, the fact that this lie is being perpetuated by a willing media machine that is beholden to nefarious actors advancing more of their fucked up agenda only makes our behavior even more insane. Don’t play along.

Health is not found in a pill, a potion, a lab, an injection, or a doctor’s office. You heal you.

We, meaning you and I, the common folk, are not powerless. Together we are unstoppable!

Oil does not run out.

Birds don’t ‘catch’ the flu.

I’m not convinced that any humans have been to the moon.

Energy is not scarce.

Money is a construct. Paper and ink, and gold and silver and coins and 1’s and 0’s are inherently empty of value, they only have value because we believe they do in our minds. Strip away the belief and they are revealed for what they are, worthless. The same could be said of time. Past and present are illusions of the mind, they don’t exist. The only time that is real is now. The eternal now is all there is.

The war in Ukraine and the Middle East is great for business, like all wars, and horrific for the people. I can’t remember who said it, but fighting for peace is like fucking for virginity. It’s complete insanity. But that’s humans for ya, insane in the membrane.

The official story of 9/11 is a lie.

There was no pandemic. Vaccines are toxic. Masks don’t work. It’s all a ruse.

Love creates, fear destroys.

Back in the day the American people started a revolution because the government wanted to tax tea at 3%. Today, we are paying 40, 50, 60% in taxes to a corporate fascist state that prints money out of thin air, we are surveilled everywhere we go, groped at the airport, spied on at home and via our phones, fed endless propaganda by the media and schools, lied to incessantly by our ‘elected representatives,’ have our inalienable rights taken from us, our currency devalued, our bodily sovereignty called into question, our freedom of speech stolen, and the creep of totalitarianism grows ever larger in our lives with each passing day. And we, collectively, sit on our asses and let it all happen without fighting back. What in the fuck happened to the land of the free and the home of the brave??!!

One day, you are going to hear your last song, hug your last hug, kiss your last kiss, eat your last meal, say I love you for the last time, and see your last sunset. And since you never know when the last time will be, live each and every as if it were your last. One day, it will be.

I would propose that if we were to turn off all the EMF’s; stop creating and dumping industrial waste into the air, water and soil; stop using sanitizers, fluoride and glyphosate; cease making and consuming processed foods (i.e. seed oils, corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, etc.); discontinue all vaccines and close down the pharmaceutical industry and the world health organization. I am convinced we would begin to see an immediate improvement in the health of humanity and a revitalization of the earth.

More opinions of mine:

If you are easily offended, you are easily manipulated.

The real bio-weapon is the belief in contagious viruses.

Only when freedom and love (the universal) become more important to us than safety and security (the personal) will the world live in health, happiness and peace.

If you believe something is true because some authority or the majority is saying it’s true — you are most likely a member of a cult.

We are love made manifest. Love would see no point in injecting poisons into its body. Why? Because love needs nothing, it is infinite and eternal just as it is.

Who you are is not a label, an object or anything material. As such, if you are seeking your identity in a pronoun, a sexual orientation, status, wealth, or any other ‘thing,’ all you will find is suffering.

If your mind is living in the past, you will perpetuate more of the same in the present. In other words, what your consciousness is doing in this moment is what determines your future.

Mistakes come with the territory. The only way to grow is to fail and get back up.

Change is coming. Accept it, and get to work. Or suffer. The choice is yours.

Complacency, complaining, victimization, and fear are contagious. Action, accountability, responsibility, and love are the antidotes.

We all struggle, we all suffer. No one is alone in this, including you.

If you understand everything, you must be misinformed. — Japanese Proverb
