Dear Martin,

Thank you for writing this. As usual, you captured the existential moment to perfection. You gave me just what I needed on a Sunday morning. I am grateful to you.

Dearest Martin, the synthesizer of all synthesizers. Every point resonates. I remember back to a comment you made that ricochets through me; it's ok to be sad. I've had to incorporate this mantra into my dailies. Aa for your writings here, I will add my twopence as a sort of confession. I have also loved my 1000 page books as a source of infinite happiness. I respected books and respected authors. Well I have now burned my first book. Yup. Threw it in the fire. An "historical" fiction about a spy in WWII, and it began lauding Churchill. So into the fire it went and subsequently warmed me toes.

Another thing I am struggling with is the standard collective terms for "us". I no longer believe that we are a unified species. The terms humans and people no longer work for me and they grate at my nerves. I now refer to "the collective" as bipedals. I have more synergy with my beloved animal brethren than with most bipedals. A u have mentioned we need to take comfort from our beautiful God given nature and all of it's precious beings that are still tethered to her. If it weren't for my rescues, I'd be long gone in the flesh.

"If it weren't for my rescues, I'd be long gone in the flesh." Indeed!

Once again, you have put insightful and incredibly important words to how so many of us who are learning and awakening alongside you are feeling. It will continue to be of the utmost importance for each of us to take time daily to access our inner peace through relationship with the God of our understanding and the Creation that helps sustain us---the natural world of wonders, our beloved pets and the humans who share this journey of seeking truth. Your essays and art are a Lighthouse for my heart and soul for which I feel tremendous gratitude and thanksgiving.

In a very real sense it feels even more oppressive now than it did during the early stages of Convid-1984. The prolonged disbelief of it all, the blanket-coverage cretinoid myopic madness, has become a permanent feature as the 'new normal' delusion has crept in. Nothing to see here, move along. Totally normal - except it's not at all normal. It's become slow-grind oppressive Orwellian dystopia. The orchestrated Global Idiocy Plot morphed from Convid Cabbage Crapaganda to the brutal Ukraine War, then to Climate Nonsense and 15 minute Lockdown Cities. I do not consent. Not now. Not ever.

I couldn't agree more. Every day, almost impossibly,I'm am more and more aghast that they still can't see!

Careful, your wisdom through experience is showing again ❤️

a process and not an event.., but strangely more progress happening that we had imaged possible. For every day that passes, our appreciation grows of the scale of the problem we have faced and the amazing speed we are resolving it.

Paradoxical anticipation

Number 5 struck a chord with me. It’s much harder to watch Hollywood movies, or NBA games or read a Stephen King novel...all are tainted by wokeness or worse. I’m discovering some classics for the first time: Vertigo, The Sting, It’s a Wonderful Life, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Did you watch Trump’s first rally? It’s a different kind of uplift, but as we move through this year of holding on, helpful 🇺🇸

Thank you for #10. It needed to end with that.

In 2018 I began a personal quest to find the answers, as best I could, to the questions, "What is Liberty, really? And what is true Freedom?" This journey has opened my eyes to the illusional matrix that I had been sleeping in my entire life. Although I was never a keyboard warrior, never an anon, I find myself in this same retrospective space. The biggest lesson I have taken away to date is that my freedom does not exist in or depend upon any external source; as if I were a dependent child. Rather, I am free because I decide that I am free and do not limit the life I live based upon perceived fears of what 'they' might do to me. Spending the time overcoming our deep-seated, unconscious fears is the best thing we can do for ourselves and those around us. The next best thing is to help others to realize and overcome their own fears. When this happens at a large enough scale, there will be no need for any type of governing body at any level.

Thank you for your work. May God bless you that you may continue it.

In the same way as you can see the sheep taken to the point of cognitive dissonance when you bombard them with enough truth bombs that one lands and makes them look over the mental parapet and consider that their government is not their friend and that some elements of the globalists are actively trying to wipe them out ( and then they have to retreat back into their bubble lest their whole world disintegrates around their ears ), then taking the red pill and existing the other side of the parapet is difficult not to feel the oppression of the siege on our societies and wonder how it ends, or if it ends or when it ends and if that will be in or lifetime?

Looking back we consider our parents and grandparents who existed is the same analogue style clown world but they were to the most part blissfully ignorant and wonder who is more fortunate?

Wow! Martin thank you! So much of what you have experienced and described resonates with me to the core! In particular, items 9 & 10 in this article.

I love that I am not alone, watching and waiting for the white hats to come to our rescue. The realization of the scope of the Evil in this world was mind and spiritually shattering for me. It will not be ended overnight, so we are watching baby steps in real time.

Meanwhile, I am making uniquely scented candles, fabulous bath salts, and salves, balms, and butters that elevate the senses and hopefully heal the body.

Thank you Martin, for keeping our heads clear.🙏🏼💖🙏🏼
