After everything is stripped away, when the saints, the apostles and the roof all fall down from the Church, there’s still a man there, near an altar and that is real. We are real and however we project our reality is real, but sometimes real is false, lies are real but they’re not true. Storms, wars, they’re all caused by grief, our grief. Too many people have died or disappeared in the last years, and we are mourning them. This is a natural process, that doesn’t mean there is no place for joy and love on earth, but the time is not yet. We need to clean the mess first.

looking at the archive i was drawn to “the river of night” and “9 11 1984″,” to the extent it’s even possible to divide them “, the words are very telling. the truth will set you free, i wonder about that. do we really want to know, or better yet would we really believe the truth. truth from an even older archive says, God was not in the storm. a wise and humble man shared with me words that changed my thinking forever, ” lit’l grl, ain’t not’n ev’a good come out’a intens’a dee.” intense/ latin intensus, stretched tightly, now isn’t that the truth.

Genevieve:

Thank you for this. Its a soothing balm after a terrible and hectic week.

And could you please forward me your recipe for brining? I’m looking into canning and making preserves. Cooking at home makes me feel very secure. Thank goodness for the lessons from my Depression-era mom.

barbara hubbard marx has a good quote about the coming changes:-

‘if the positive innovations connect exponentially before the massive breakdowns reinforce one another, the system can repattern itself to a higher order of consciousness without the predicted social economic or environmental collapse.

if the system could go either way, a slight intervention to assist the convergence of the positive can tip the scales of evolution in favour of the enhancement of life on earth.’

we don’t need an appocalypse to change our outlook. some would say that the apocalypse has been the whole of the 20th Century.
With a combination of market collapse and sea-levels rising, we’re now all in the same ark, and there’s been many people beavering away at the positive innovations.

philip sedgwick said about the CERN accelerator that we would discover some very unexpected ideas. just when we think its all over, help comes through logic,like the eagles rescuing Frodo on the rocks after he’s thrown the ring in the fire.

it seems to me that a lot of the banks that were really cocky are going under. The Lehman Brothers called themselves The Masters of the universe in the ’80’s, and its possible that with the wrecking ball of Pluto only the moral ethical and sustainable businesses will survive.

I’m hungry for change, but I’m feeling that we’ve already won, and we’re just seeing the last flailing gasps of momentum from the juggernaut of the western world. Patience is a virtue.
