Some Poems
Some poems are simple
Some poems are right
From birth they wing
Their way to the light
Some poems are dark,
Some poems vex
Unwieldy and heavy
And too complex
Some poems are happy
And clear and bright
And speak of a world
Where everything’s right
Some poems are lonely
And sad and blue
In need of a friend
Just like you
Some poems are restless
And ready to fly
To open their wings
And take to the sky
To lift you right up
If you’re willing to go,
You’ll be back in five
Just in time for the show
There are poems for rich
And poems for poor
And poems to drive
The wolf from your door
Poems that a husband
Writes to a wife
Poems of praise
For the gift of life
Poems that children
Send to their friends
And poems that people
Write on weekends…
Whatever your size,
Whatever your view,
There’s always a poem
That’s just right for you.
Voila Dimitar,
My poetic, noetic, cafe friend.
Indeed right now tis a glorious weekend.
To the garden, in real life, I must repair,
Even though I am more tempted by my comfy chair!
Further inspiration may arrive as I dig and sweat
I shall return soonish to read more, on that you can bet!
We be cattle.
Hence herd immunity.
But what if we decide to leave our pens
And free range, graze and wander wherever, whenever. Well, just like with livestock, that *cannot* be allowed.
Watch this astonishing piece of Orwellian doublespeak (from CNN, so no surprises there)

CNN reveals lockdowns are being used as coercion:
~We have to make it clear to them (the cattle) that the vaccine is their ticket back to pre-pandemic life
~And the window to do that is really narrowing.
You were mentioning how all these states are re-opening.
They’re re-opening at 100%.
~And we have a very narrow window to tie re-opening policy to vaccination status.
~Because otherwise, if everything is re-opened, what’s the carrot going to be? How are we going to incentivize people to get the vaccine?
~So that’s why I think the CDC and the Biden administration needs to come out a lot bolder and say “if you’re vaccinated, you can do all these things! Here are all these freedoms that you have!” ~Because otherwise, people are going to go out and enjoy these freedoms anyway.
First honest thing we’ve heard from CNN so far.
This is a livestream of several excellent journalists. The first 20 minutes discuss how the liberal democrats have used their Trump phobia in order to ramp up Russophobia.
I was unaware of Michael Carpenter, Biden advisor, who was sponsoring Ukrainian Nazi Parubi on his visit to Washington DC.
Thus, the ties of the Democrats to the Ukraine Nazis is shockingly exposed.

An early Trend
While some of us are glued to our chairs wondering if the big guns are going to start thundering in and around the Ukraine, there are the beginnings of some new breezes blowing.
People are getting up now and getting on with their lives. Some of them are now just disgusted with the last year or so, and the many many theories that they clung to and desperately proclaimed, to try and make sense of a virus and A Zone states utilizing this for grabbing control – The State as Predator and Citizens as Prey. Generally, they’re calling it a wasted year and have thrown off the shackles of the alt-media, who in my view, did us not too many favors with pushing one conspiracy after the other and staying relevant with whipping up unbelievable fear-mongering and sick lies as well.
There are a few such examples in my inbox now from old old friends. I am so pleased to see that some have taken their hobbies to new heights. An old friend that has practiced and studied Kundalini Yoga for something like 23 years, did what she had to do and is opening her own class now – her mail is so upbeat and so full of the joys of life, that it is wonderful. The previous one was just full of The Great Reset and They’re Coming to Get Us and Oh Woe is Us and you know the deal that we’ve been living with. I told her in no uncertain terms to not waste her time, take note of what is happening but – don’t give away energy to energetic harvesters and vampires. The message worked. The story has materially changed and we’re back, sharing a good vibe.
Another one let me know that they looked back over this time, and cannot believe that they allowed their life force to be sucked. They feel now that they have to get up and get going as all is well for them.
And then something that I am just so pleased about. BC (before Covid) the naturopath/osteopath that I’ve worked with for a bunch of years, and I, had just started a new book, temporary title – The Philosophy of Naturopractic(tm) Healing. This was well planned and the first writing was done but with family matters, lockdowns and so on, not an abandoned project, but one that could not continue. It is designed to be not only a philosophy but also a training manual and will be accompanied by a training site with education. Its a big project, and in the planning these past eight years or so. He wrote me just in the past few days saying he is ready to continue. And for this, I am ready also. He is a very good guy, with such a deep experience in alternative healing practice, and my skills although not as well developed as I do not practice, complement his. There is a vibe. In the next few days, we will have a small online conference, with the person that will do the design and the art (and I hope the marketing as well).
There are a few more of these as well, showing this new trend. During lockdown times, we did some updating of technical skills just because the technology is cool and we could do with an update. To my surprise, the dearly beloved one announces one morning over breakfast that he has just signed up for a five-month really advanced practical class as he wants to do some new application, and he is going to do it and I just better arrange our household so he has the time (and make time to help with the user interface as well). He has his group, he has his tribe for this thing. (What that means practically of course is that I inherit some of his chores .. dang! – some really sloppy housekeeping incoming!)
A whole new level of energetics is beginning to burst out like a garden in full flower and I love it.
Message to the Borg – You cannot keep good people down because some of them are a wild strain!
See if you can feel the wind currents stir around you? ‘Tis a good thing! I am hopeful around the Ukraine – there is no basis for being hopeful as it looks dire. I pray that these new beginnings of flutters of wind currents strongly towards life that I’m observing, will be felt there as well.
Repeating Dimitar with his wonderful opening poem and consistent voice-over of happenings:
Some poems are restless
And ready to fly
To open their wings
And take to the sky
To lift you right up
If you’re willing to go,
You’ll be back in five
Just in time for the show
Your positivity is admirable, wind currents towards life, most certainly, I and many other’s have spoken of this global awakening movement for change, many, many times, and helping other’s through difficult times, is this not what we attempt to do, all of us, all our lives when the opportunity presents itself ?!
But your defamatory statements concerning the Alternative Media, all those countless people who have shared their stories, links, articles on here and on other site’s, that have helped create the knowledge and the picture of our geo political, medical and social world throughout the last year, and that have, and will continue to be valued, sorry, they are a gross insult.
Anonymous, you did not understand what I conveyed. I’m not talking about a purported global awakening. I am talking about very savvy people coming out of a Covid Coma, a stupor, a daze, and realizing they lost a year in a rabbit hole. I thought I had lost some friends, but they are detoxing and re-appearing like jacks-in-boxes.
The Alt Media was very skillfully used with planted memes to create that hole, and then to break people apart. (Kinda like in the 60’s where some modern music was used to plant the memes). I can list most of the memes for you, because I kept track of them, and said this already in February last year, with the information available then.
/covid-19-what-people-say-and-only-5-realities/
Why did you not complain then? Is it because by hook or by crook you will try and create a division? Or what?
I can update that collection written down there easily today and what I said about the Alt Media at the time following their .gov’s lead on China for example, is there in the zeitgeist even today. I just had a quick look at Gab, where the language at first was Patriots are in control. They soon realized ooops! Clearly Not!. Now, the narrative changed and it is God is in control and let’s not buy anything from China, but let’s buy from the US, Canada, and Europe. Now I have no problem with voting with your purchasing power, but do they have to vote for the biggest warmongers in recent history? And of course, what is carefully excluded is the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Julian Assange, the current attempt at making war through the Ukraine and I can go on. This is reflected through most of the alt-media today. The very same is valid on the Covid Coma.
The so-called Q-Anon stuff was of the same ilk – a total misdirection. It’s quite ludicrous to say that there is a purported awakening if the awakening is based on for example, who wears a mask and who not. Let’s party baby, let’s this side destroy the other side about what is essentially a piece of cleverly constructed paper and call it ‘awakening’. Let’s destroy the other person because of course, the wisdom is all mine, and this in a very uncertain time when facts are hard to get at and deliberately being misconstructed. I said this all along – we have to work cleverly with this, and Mr.Lavrov gave us just a splendid example, with his mask saying “F%%% SWIFT”. The Alt literally gave the economic controllers the divisionary whip to beat them with. Where is the awakening? We’re fighting paper and everybody overnight became a virologist. In my circles, they think we’ve moved to a Dim Age where the Church of Woke rules.
The alternative voices are out there and as a result of this post, my inbox had some rare and beautiful treasures. See, people do not talk in public here any longer – they’ve gone back to email, and a few very active people, writers, alternative thinkers, anti-imperialists, that I tested this idea on, confirmed for me that they have more discussion now on e-mail than on public forums. It’s more productive they say. I wonder why? /end sarc. And every day I wonder why I still persist to a measure.
Anyways, before this Easter Sunday starts fully for me, I will go and post the method for a fresh corn pancake that I could not stop eating in the main market in Costa Rica. I found it, I’m going to make it – it’s good cheap interesting peasant type food and delicious as well. That one unites people, because it uses what is fresh from the earth correctly, ancient wisdoms, and speaks all by itself.
People’s stories are wonderful. Sometimes the muse strikes me and I pen one down. Personally, I expect some very old stories to reveal themselves here soon, as people raid the historical databanks and make intuitive leaps for information that makes sense about us, these humans. I keep waiting for a mass revelation of hidden secrets, like the books left from the burning of the library of Alexandria that lives in secret deep in the Vatican vaults. We could re-invent if we can learn to let people have their differences and seek for commonalities. That is what the Russian excellent diplomatic corps is built on and that is why mostly they can stop warring factions from warring. Instead of trying to destroy the other for ‘wrongthink’ whereas it is only differences in ‘selfthink’ that is presented as final truth in ego-maniacal frenzy. Our whole conversation space with the complete culture war presents what I say fully. And the ones that fell into the Covid Coma, did exactly the same as the other culture warriors. And exactly the same as the climate warriors. No difference. Well, there is a Zone B in more ways than one. We all know the Rumi poem – the first few lines .. but very few know the next bit. Let me put it here.
“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
Now that is the piece that was beaten to death by the new agers. They just forgot the rest.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other”
doesn’t make any sense.
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.”
Very nice reading your post, as always :)
I follow the link to get an update on Covid and I suppose those points there are still valid
but dear is not Covid Coma a meme? who’s spreading the virus now, hey? Ha :D
anyway, I am more inline with pamela on this one – okie its not exactly a ‘hoax’
but is it a FF – the likes of 911 – where mass death rate and then world was lock down even more by Emergency laws? It is a bioweapon, we agree on that right? to me, this is a clear firgerprints of some black magicians.
Also on Ukies, I am also more in agreement w Pamela, I think it will ‘die down’ but the presence of Andrei Martyanov makes me more careful with any silly opinion of mine. I have very different and much more macro view that the youtube guy but seeing from the east, I dont see enough juice for any of those war party to even show up at the ring.
Sorry I still dont have enough Qi for longer sharings
but thought I share a few difference of opinion here.
be well be safe all
Hey there – oh boy .. long time eh :-).
The Ukies, I’m inclined to go with The Saker, Martyanov, real on the ground sketches from Auslander, Rostislav Ischenko and the Russian information and out of Donbass itself. The Russian Foreign affairs are tweeting and messaging consistently.
But, we just don’t know. I’m not trying to call the outcome but I pray that this goes off without war.
Regarding Covid, I go with Russia, China, even Cuba good heavens, before anyone else and the countries that are open and working, e.g., Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and more. Of course New Zealand as well, but questionable for me as I think they could easily be some kind of test. The big western financial picture I give CAF a good listen but also Michael Hudson.
There are a few more, of course.
For Qi, this guy did a good job lol.

Forgot to answer … Covid Coma? A meme? Is it used? I thought I expressed what I see from my friends, coming out of a coma. Did I make a meme, or just worked with a bit of alliteration? Hahaaa … I made a meme (would be the first time). Step over poets – make space – I made a 2 word meme! OMG – truly laughing at myself here. My husband consistently says to me … That, what you’ve expressed there, is not English – no idea which language it comes from, but it is not English. So, if I made a meme, it would be by mistake.
Thanks, I don’t have the time for long posts, one can argue anything, and I am not interested. Your statements on the Alt media were disrespectful to myriads of professional, intelligent people, that’s all.
As for Covid 19, it is indeed connected to terror, and yes, people die of the illness, it is real.
You still do not understand – alt-media, who in my view, did us not too many favors with pushing one conspiracy after the other and staying relevant with whipping up unbelievable fear-mongering and sick lies as well.
Not one word about individual people – but this is another example of why people do not talk to one another any longer. They want to make accusations and try to make them stick. Sorry but I do not accept your accusation.
My position :I wish to stand up for all those who present their research, knowledge and experience on so called “alternative” sites. Commentators on the Saker, the owners and commentators on other esteemed sites of their own, that they are respected. Themes include the great reset, Covid 19, finance, and are shown to be connected, and have been presented by brilliant minds as such.
That is my final word on this, I think my point is clear.
Conspirators promote conspiracies. The people to whom you refer are promoting the theory of a conspiracy . Promoting the theory , or many times the fact, of a conspiracy having been perpetrated.
Pacifist don’t promote war, yet they may promote the theory, or fact, that another engaged in war.
Yes, I used my word incorrectly. We have clear conspiracies – refer to 9/11 and the murder of Kennedy for example.
And then there are the many theories of conspiracy.
Throughout Covid time, there were many of those. Some of those people I wrote to, and gave them perhaps a piece of information that was missing and still, they went ahead and posted a fear message, based on vague theory. I am not sorry for these, they deliberately misled whoever heard them out. I can give examples – but, don’t want to highlight individuals.
Being fully in a Zone B pattern of thought, I saw most of these theories come from the Zone A countries. (Although there are many things believed by different people and even the tea of the Russians have some ‘meaning’ to it, and the Chinese and their ancestor business is strange – I don’t think they are trying to convince others to think the way they do.
Many of yesterdays’ theories, when more facts or evidence come to light, have been shown to be truthful
A good detective will have more than one theory regarding a crime and then develope from there.
I would agree with promoting a theory as a theory to be considered further, then the evidence and facts reviewed, is commendable. Not to be discredited. What is wrong with theories ? They are only theories. Whereas promoting outright lies as facts is another matter.
The term “conspiracy theory ” as a derogatory slant was created to discredit people who disagreed with the Warren Commission on the shooting of John F. Kennedy . Now used by persons, msm media and more, who cannot debate a highly controversial topic so resort to all they have ; it’s a ” conspiracy theory.”.
As highly unlikely as some theories may seem at first hand, i would rather consider all angles of any theory ( regarding a conspiracy or other) before condemning to such a derogatory title . The usage degrades the user more than those who propose the theories or the theory itself. If “conspiracy theory ” is the best retort they have their thinking is less than the author of the theory, no matter how base the theory. Or the user has an ulterior motive to casting the term .( then you know you might be on to something ).
Theories are promoted, as are facts too, to convince another of the validity of the theory, or the fact.Or to promote debate. Within debate the theory can be expanded upon further, to find credibility or disregarded. Otherwise, why would be promoted , or presented to others ? Scientific theories, philosophical etc.. We will not always agree with every theory presented, and the theory will not always support our own beliefs .We may rightfully challenge the motives of the presenter of the theory. How do we grow and learn if we do not let our beliefs first be challenged ?
If i developed a theory to which the title was labeled i would be quite honored, and amused.
PS. Hope you are all having a good Easter weekend , holidays, at work or whatever ?
If not and you’re feeling down and low, maybe God made a mistake dealing you a tough one. We all die eventually, yet give God/Life a bit more time to correct and sort this one out..
If you are reading this at the bar in the hotel, or the Cafe ,have another one.Cheers !
I am dropping by with a query – probably for amarynth.
I just went to thread “Drums of War in Ukraine” and noted an update to the moderation policy which reads as follows
“Okay, I am fed up with all this idiotic “there is no pandemic” nonsense. So, from now on, any post denying that there is a pandemic will be removed and its author banned.”.
Can I ask – does this apply across the board, i.e. also here in the Cafe, or did Saker mean it purely for that thread – that it keeps on topic?
Could be important to know, as I know there are those who only come to the Cafe, and might not have read it.
Thanks.
Hi Pamela, the cafe is the only place where covid 19 discussions can take place – the Saker has put a message on the front page too stating restriction of discussions to cafe only. Site rules/moderation policy #19 also states this and all rules apply here. Mod.
I think this might answer your question, if my reply sees the light of day. Obviously there is the social phenomenon known as “The Covid epidemic” which I do not believe can rightly be viewed in insolation of many factors i.e. widespread informational warfare, sovereign defaults, possible medical racketeering — this is all above my paygrade… Perhaps the operative word here is nonsense.
“about things one cannot speak, one must remain silent.”
“I don’t mean to brag, but I have the same medical degree as Bill Gates and Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.”
It seems to me the answer to your question Pamela is very clearly stated in rule #20 in…
/moderation-policy/
” 20) Okay, I am fed up with all this idiotic “there is no pandemic” nonsense. So, from now on, any post denying that there is a pandemic will be removed and its author banned.”
As I read it this absolutely applies “across the board”. As The Saker clearly states, it is “nonsense.”… can we really blame him for putting a stop to his site being used to promote this sort of idiocy?
The other way to go is to continue what you have been doing for the last 12 months…you will very quickly find out the answer to your question then.
all cause mortality 2019 greater than 2020. period.
mass deception. global genocide. there’s your pandemic.
Gosh…the “Covid-19 is a hoax” hoax collective has come out with bells on today!
First Pamela, then Chimmy, now Pariah… goodness me…and of course sandenED is bound to chime in any minute now.
Covid is not a hoax, it’s a flu, like other flus, although this one is very contagious, it’s not very deadly for the average healthy person. The ‘Hoax’ is the unuified, defied even, approch to treating a flu, that is not overwhelming morgues, rather Emergancy Rooms…………why, because in countries with some type of universal health care if you get a runny nose you go immediatly to the emergancy room, cause runny noses are deadly; blow too hard and whatever brains were left, poof, gone, from a covid sneeze……….and that’s the state of affairs, over-extened health care that has been hacked to the bare bones in the name of austerity. Now, if there is a spate of mortician retirements from the over abundance of dead bodies……..sumpsinsup!
you are good!
HA :D thats the real reality!
Thanks for the laughters :D

be safe all
Thank you mod. That makes sense. I hadn’t seen any restriction on it here. Just wanted to be sure.
Pamela…It sounds very much like you are determined to continue one way or another with your “Covid-19 is a hoax “meme in spite of what TS has just spelled out.
I am extremely curious as to your motivation… especially since only a few countries away from you, Brazil is currently experiencing a complete unmitigated disaster with its Bolsanaro ‘strategy’. Surely it is painfully obvious that his methods to date have been remarkably similar to what you promote with your narratives.
I respectfully request that you reflect on the fact that if the global mortality rate was the same as that of Brazil, the total death toll would now stand at around 11.7 million, not the 2.8 million it is currently estimated at. This would be 360% higher. Incidentally, it would also be a staggering 30 times the average global death toll from seasonal influenza.
I only talk to people who are on my wavelength, vibrating at my frequency, these days;.
This clearly does not include yourself.
Perhaps Pamela you need to be reminded of a comment from the post below…
/moveable-feast-cafe-2021-02-09/#comment-907035
…“As to them being deliberate in Aus. I’m not so sure. I have to say, with regret, that apart from a small handful of special people most Australians aren’t that bright”.
“They just can’t be bothered. There is little of the entrepreneurial spirit, apart from South Australia, the only state incidentally started out by Farmers, not by convicts and their equally low life guards. And that is not enough to carry the nation.”…end quote.
As you may or may not have gathered yet, I am an Australian so by your observations, I am almost bound to be “low-life” too.
As extraordinary as this comment was in its bigotry, perhaps even more astonishing is the fact that you got away with it without even being challenged.
So there you are…you now have at least three reasons for not talking to me.
Shazadahl, respect for your country, its people and your comment, a major difficulty on here has arisen due to a take over of interests, that’s all. This has created a heated battle in trying to present ideas, after a time this has become utterly wearying, has divided commentators, lost other’s, many, and taken away valuable resources from the true war of our time, which is spiritual and can only be fought together.
Please continue to post !
A smorgasbord café delight, is it a cake, a savoury dish, an unidentified flying truffle, a garnished top hat ? It is a cake for everyone, to go with Dimitar’s poem ! It has all flavours, oh those chocolate politico’s, Vogue journalists, conspiracy theory queries ! I’ll have a virtual slice, and leave.
Don’t be too restless, Anonymous, here’s one for you…
waiter, dear waiter
I’ll have one of them;
the truffley thing over there!
from early to late
I’m out on the take,
the stress is too much to bear
waiter, dear waiter
if life’s any good,
there must be a moment for me;
when you do your bit,
I’ll get my hit,
can’t we just simply agree?
waiter, dear waiter,
to you it’s a job,
but to me it’s calamit-ee
you do it for pay
and at the end of each day,
you’re footloose and fancy free
waiter, dear waiter
you don’t seem to see,
I’ve given it all that I’ve got;
will you make haste,
my life is but waste,
when it’s a matter of sugar or not?
waiter, dear waiter,
I’ve made my choice
you’d better come by real soon;
theres only one left
and before I’m ‘effed’…
get your ass on over here!
Lol… look what ya did, now, Anon… I missed that last rhyme…
winter, dear waiter,
I’ve made my choice,
when will you finally hear?
Apologies for that end, there are better
Oh thank you, honoured for a poem I came back for another slice – the stress was too great! I think the waiter got the message, he was slow on the uptake, like Manuel, in Faulty Tower’s, it’s a language thing, he had no idea….

England is turning into a Dystopia, that I couldn’t have possibly imagined. I am 67 years old, and I did pass both my English GCE “O” and got Grade 1’s in all my CSE’s including physics and maths et al – from a bog standard working class school. I also spent 43 years of my life working in the computer industry and have still retained a few brain cells.
I can’t yet get this to appear on my favourite blogs in England.

From about 2005, I regularly posted on Alternet, and came across Naomi Wolf and bought her book
“End of America, the: Letters of Warning to a Young Patriot” I didn’t take it that seriously, and kind of forgot about her.
14 years later, I have just seen her latest video, and I take it extremely seriously. She ain’t no bimbo, she is highly intelligent. If this doesn’t scare the sh1t out of you, then it should. It sure as hell scares scares the sh1t out of me. I admit she also does look completely georgeous, and has a tolerable American accent.

When I was studying psychology I read a book: one hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse.
In the above presentation, one of the doctors said: we’ve had one hundred years of medicine and we haven’t really advanced…I paraphrase. The message is the same
What I learned about western medicine is that it is essentially reductionist. As is the language that conditions us from early childhood.

Babuška, I just started listening but will put it away for later. Just there in the beginning, there is already deep wisdom but of course, I must listen to the rest. In our corner of our healing, we’ve long believed that the ‘message is in the water’. I mean the big message, the one that talks to the collective unconscious and that becomes conscious. You’ve inadvertently given me a 2nd nudge to something that has been niggling a long time. For me, three is the charm and then the heavens open with different understanding. So I’m waiting for number three (grins) to plumb direction. I’ve long felt that we have some women’s wisdom that is deeply hidden and somehow this water thing is part of it – moons and cycles and surging and dipping oceans ya know.
There is a wonderful book, Dancing with Water, that may be relevant here: https://dancingwithwater.com/dancing-with-water-book/
“What I learned about western medicine is that it is essentially reductionist. As is the language that conditions us from early childhood.”
I believe You are on to something very fundamental and important here Babuska.
During my Developmental Biology lectures, I always remember the lecturer saying ” my colleagues upstairs, in Biochemistry, Genetics, think that if you want to understand Beethovens’ 5th Symphony, you have to take the orchestra and grind it all up and then separate out the bits and label them. That’s why they cannot understand Developmental Biology, because here we have to look at how living entities are interacting during their living processes – and that is something few scientists these days can conceive of”
It was interesting to me that a few decades later, the brilliant novelist / fantasy writer, Terry Pratchett, put that imagery into one of his stories – that the “auditors” of the Universe, those who try to make sure everything stays the same, went mad trying to understand humans, and took apart a famous painting to try and find the part which made humans like it” :-)
It was this studying I got into about the huge power of words, images, their effects on perceptions which I started as I was taking apart the methods by which the Mind Control Agents of Oceania had gained so much control over so many people – by shaping their perceptions of people, places, history, lies on lies.
But that reductionism shapes so much how we see and interpret the world – and I see that in so many other spheres. It’s grown over the years. I have an interest in Egyptology and Archaeology. Flinders Petrie 1880 – 1920 made sense in his interpretations of Egypt. Recent Egyptologist say things so stupid and illogical it’s hard to accept they have any intelligence at all.
What I discovered that was so huge, came from finding Benjamin Lee Whorf, a brilliant man who studied many languages, Native Tribes among them, especially Hopi. I’ve related his discovery of why, at a plant where men had to handle barrels with a highly combustible material, they were dangerously throwing them around. After discussion, he realised that it was because they said that “the barrels are empty”, which led them to discount the highly explosive vapour still there!!
I found this, also, after Gregg Bradden said that, we would say for example, “I am wet, because, while walking by the sea I got hit by a wave”, because we have reduced the sea to bits, as our language does to everything, and see a wave as a bit of sea’ However the Hopi, who see the sea as an entire entity, as it is now, in all places and at all times, as one complete entity, would say “I am wet because the sea is waving”.
I started to let my mind “see” the sea that way. I realised that I had been brought up and via my language, to see it as “bits’. The surface, here, over there, waving here, still over there. Now, I looked at it as the Hopi would, as a complete entity, and saw the entire thing, across all the world, constantly in motion which is rhythmic; I saw it’s depths always the same, and it’s never ending movement from surface to depths; then I saw it’s animal life, constantly in motion, constantly playing out a pattern formed on the pattern of the movement of the sea, and with each other, as individuals and as huge shoals; then I remembered a paper I’d read, of how records of whale songs had been transcribed into digital data then plotted three dimentionially, and they make a flower – just think of that, all these “sound flowers” through all the ocean. It occurred to me that the air is the same, and I went from the sea to the air, and saw it’s thermals, it’s movement, its swirls and motions according to a chaotic pattern, and the birds who ride the thermals and float on the breezes and all the while this is happening in the ocean.
And when I came out of that, I knew I could never look at the world the same way again. And all because I realised how it looks using a Hopi concept instead of an English one!! :-)
And I think this is something very important – because our Western language reductionism has taken away from us the realisation that everything is connected – and this is very damaging.
AS to the utter reductionist approach of most theoretical science and medicine, after a lifetime spent working in them I couldn’t agree with you more.
Say well dear Babuska.
Thank You dear Pamela
I feel privileged to stand with you and the beautiful souls featured in FreedomTalk 2 – please add Dean Braus to this group, with apologies for leaving him out, above- who speak exactly our language. I’ve known this about children and animals- even plants 🌱 for soooo many decades, and the more I stood my ground, the more I got marginalised. And as so wittily attested to in White Whale’s splendid poem, I ‘embraced my inner slug’
For all our ‘intellectual prowess’, in order for humanity to evolve we must honour the sacred and treat our fellow humans as we would ourselves be treated
Either everything is sacred, or nothing is sacred.
God is with us dear Pamela
I remember being a teenager. I remember our kids being teenagers.
Its extremely tough being a teenager now, even if you have the confidence to walk out in the park with your teenage friends..
We never had this – and we went to Stonehenge as did our kids…
Sure the Police in The UK, can be a liitle bit horrible, but so far as I am aware they have never come quite as horrible as the Belgium Police..
I have seen the video, the one where the kid was doing nothing wrong..there wasn;t even a band on..The Belgium Police, on their horses just ran over Their Belgium kids, in their own Bellgium Park
To be honest, I was quite shocked to see it, and proud of
1. The kids instantly ran to protect the kid who had been run over by a horse, as if he was piece of meat
2. The kids literally fought back and they were only 15, being tear gassed and tramped over.
I would too. OK I am 50 years older now.
You simply have got to fight back against this, in any way you can.
There is nothing wrong with The Grandchildren
They would fight back to, to Protect their Mum and Dad, and Nana and Grandad(me)
“You do not do that to My Dad.”, though they probably would.

Easter Sunday
The people say that that the sun dances on this day in joy for a risen Saviour.
Old Barbara Macphie at Dremsdale saw this once, but only once in her long life. And the good woman, of high natural intelligence, described what she saw, or believed she saw from the summit of Benmore:
“The glorious gold-bright sun was after rising on the crests of the great hills, and it was changing colour -green, purple, red, blood-red, white, intense-white, and gold-white, like the glory of the God of the elements to the children of men. It was dancing up and down in exultation at the joyous resurrection of the beloved Saviour of victory.
‘To be thus privileged, a person must ascend to the highest hill before sunrise, and believe that God who make the makes the small blade of grass to grow is the same God who makes the large, massive sun to move.”
To the garden I do repair
My objective: some order to ensnare
Projects here and “must dos” there
Resist I must the cool, comfy chair.
I dig and I sweat, I sweat and I dig
Banish thoughts that I’m too old for this gig.
At two past noon I check the sun
Hmmm, plus 30c, yep, I’m done,
After all, this is supposed to be fun!
It’s Easter, ain’t that sweet.
I eagerly crack open my smooth, chocolatey, (forbidden) treat.
Guilt arrives pronto, oh, why do I cheat;
The calories, I know, head straight to my seat.
Sigh. I really should spend more time on my feet.
While I sit and sip, I watch in dismay
As the grass I mowed just yesterday,
Responds to the moisture and the heat
Rudely taunting me with defeat.
The shadows stretch and I check the time
One clock says this and the other that.
Unbidden I think: cyka blyat
It’s impolite Russian: but an appropriate rhyme,
A groan and a grump; changing clocks, what a bore,
Even summer signs off leaving me one last chore.
Mozzies swarm, so indoors I retreat
The dog fed and asleep at my feet
Can I see progress, or is it a dream…..
hmmm,
…… Where’s that choccie egg, oozing with creme?
White whale
That’s a great little gardeners poem.
BTW, I have discovered that mowing grass on the “no moon,low moon”phase works a treat as the cut is being done when the energy is low in the plants and the grass does not grow as quick after this double hit.
Of course if you want billiard table grass cut away every day!!
TJT
“Billiard table grass”, !! the very idea made me chuckle and spill my tea. Lol no! But because of the dog, I like to have a good mown buffer to discourage the snakes away from the house.
The moon mowing idea is worth considering. …
So Easter, with its full moon energies, contributed to the vigorous and instant regrowth. Add in an incredibly wet summer and the continuing heat and humidity. …. the grass is literally growing as I watch.
The moon mowing reminded me I got very intrigued by biodynamics some many years back. I did some courses and joined a group, but I found just reversing northern hemisphere planting schedules did not really work. And being overcommitted, I could rarely attend any of the group workshops to learn what works here.
Given biodynamics is about energies, I think the ideas/fundamentals do need to be tailored to each locality.
I read some books by these guys a decade – more- ago:
“Over 40 years of ongoing research by Maria and Matthias Thun and others into the influences of the moon, planets and constellations on plant growth has resulted in the publication by them of an annual astronomic calendar, The Maria Thun Biodynamic Calendar.
This is used by biodynamic farmers, growers, gardeners and others to determine auspicious sowing, planting, cultivating and harvesting times of crops. It is available to buy from our online shop.
“By using the moon as a guide in our growing, we’re attempting to stimulate the latent promise that each crop has to offer. Sometimes we have to compromise because of more immediate constraints of time and weather, but over the years we’ve noticed that the closer we work with these subtle rhythms of the cosmos, the better these results.”
Jane Scotter and Harry Astley, Working with the Moon, in Fern Verrow, published by Quadrille, 2015
I might dig the Thun book out and give the ideas another try. Thanks🐝🐞
https://www.biodynamic.org.uk/the-biodynamic-sowing-and-planting-calendar/
Thanks for that info about biodynamics of which I am familiar with to some degree ,it definitely works in Ireland,of course, Southern Hemisphere has different forces of the heavens at play too.
I have been gardening since I was a boy helping my father follow the horse plough.
Have a feel for it and notice things over the years and all ties in to the biodynamic concept …this past full moon I missed a few showings and probably need to do a chart …In any case I probably should purchase Maria Thun calendar, have a good friend who manages organic farm of 500 acres and he has mentioned Maria Thun in a big way
Happy Easter rising
Tiochaidh ar la(our day will come)
Gaelic phrase borrowed by Sinn Fein,not owened by them as they are owned by American money.
I should add … Tiochaidh ar la gach la Buíochas le Dia
(Our day comes every day thanks be to God)
Any idea who owns the DUP…………as for ‘Chuckie ar la’, what’s with the wokism…….it’s a Republician saying born in 70’s which has always been “Our day will come” and if God wants to join in, he’s more than welcome, mind you, the days of the Father Murphy’s are long gone………..for now, ‘Arm, Arm, he cried.’
Cheers, M
Moon rule of thumb in these parts used to be, not to plant untill after the May full moon……………last few years we’ve had frost and cold air well in to the middle of June…….makes for shorter growing season if one does not have a green house. It always about the weather…………..
Cheers, M
Easter Sunday here in my neighborhood and a very peaceful, contemplative calm has descended—faith and family.
Mercury moves into Aries tonight so events will pick up this next week and for the next 3 weeks. It appears that Russia successfully has done “the drill” in the face of insulting provocations. The next question: Will the NWO use NATO to “bleed Russia like in Afghanistan” . They boast most proudly of that operation clueless to the fact that all while they are left holding the bag .
To my amusement I found that out of 22 people in my block who rushed out to take the genetic modification jab, only 5 of us did not: A Jehovah’s Witness couple, a pre-tribulation Christian evangelical who is very upset at the betray of Richmond Graham, an ER nurse approaching retirement at a local hospital and me, the 60’s ex-radical… Or maybe not so ex. Everyone else folded. Now, the pre-trib lady who can never be described as luke-warm gave me a whole mini educational regarding her take regarding the mark of the Beast. So, wisely ( hah, that being a first) I kept my mouth shut until I can check out what the scholar leading my study says about that subject and then I will continue to practice equanimity. She and I may end up being on the same train car, after all.
So why am I fixated on the Book of Revelations? Everyone seems to be tossing it around as metaphor…The man who drove his vehicle into the cops in Washington, DC was quoting Elijah Muhammad, the Book of Revelations etc. So, yes, it is something set loose in Looneylandia. I wish responsible, knowledgeable people would make the point that it is the people on earth who write the deeds with resulting effects attached to them on the scroll and there is no time-line for its opening.
It is clear in Rev. 5 that The Lamb Standing before the court has been assigned by the court and a Sitting God the not-so- simple task of opening one by one the seals. Book of Revelation hysteria has happened off and on throughout history at fraught times. Those forces which wish the total destruction of humanity just delight in our doing it to ourselves. OK. there is more to the theology of the Book of Rev. but I am not qualified to discuss it so ? At least I need to be conversant with the facts.
I give RT’s culturally hip faction kudos just for posting this:

Meanwhile back at the ranch. There will be no summer holidays abroad for British people without the vaccine. The Queen announced this, with Prince Charles. And most likely Boris Johnson, but I don’t listen or watch the BBC, but skim around. GB being an island, there are plenty of places to go for a holiday, but will one need the vaccine pass?
Or two even, keep the jabs coming, the third one due in the autumn. Trouble is, people have the vaccines and pick up the Covid anyway, and there never was a NHS guarantee they would work.
Perhaps the “all will be back to normal soon” crowd are rethinking, especially as the chaos and mixed messages from the government continue, i.e. “We cannot say for certain that there will not be another lockdown” announced a week before the last 3 months lone is to be lifted.
Yes, people die of Covid 19, and they die without Covid 19.
A friend of mine who runs a business said recently, ‘one more lockdown, and we’re dead’. I think this sentiment may be shared, judging by the ruinous state of economy, culture and confidence, with masks, social distancing, set to continue, and loss of civil freedoms guaranteed also. (The culture aspect is very complex, long story.)

“Get out Nazis!” Calgary pastor shouts down police interrupting church service during Holy Week.
What would have been infinitely more powerful is the congregation getting behind their pastor adding: “in the name of Jesus!” as they inexorably surged toward those sluggish thugs.
Shame on them, especially the feminazi who kept up her running diatribe from the hell that is her life.
Maybe, next time,the next same situation, the congregation can break in to boisterous hymn singing, after the Pastor announces the appropriate numbers of hymns containing topics relevant to the situation ( persecution, overcoming evil, etc., i can’t come up with off the top of my head ).
Or, all pray together in full volume, with emphasis on the “forgive those who trespass against us ” line.
Will the intention become, sooner or later, to vilify the religious population that they may more easily be interned in the future, unless they change their ways ?
Though that might sound extreme, such action would not be without precedent .
Soft porn persecution underway with banning of church religion practice, and zoom technology is replacing human contact, and everyone thinks its marvellous, way to go mate. Not all, of course, but it is very insidious how it is infringing into the cultural and spiritual life on earth. That’s it friends, humanity, on earth, you and me.
First comes culture, then comes politics after, in its wake so to say. Do away with the cultural, spiritual life, impoverish human relations, reduce spiritual authenticity and let the good times roll. Sorry, I’m a bit tired of saying the same things in the same way !
Vaccies, vaxi surveillance, freedom gone. If you have 2 feet on the ground, (not 2 feet above the ground) it’s not that hard to see where we’re heading, is it ?
Another inspiring interview with Dr Carrie Majev

Dr. Carrie Madej- Covid is flu rebranded to bring in NWO
https://t.co/fuduNknmBu
At 45:00 Dr Carrie discusses studies in Russia where they took genetically modified plants-their genomes had been corrupted-they put a pyramidal structure over -just tubular – it’s got the exact dimensions of the pyramid of Giza, and within two life cycles of putting it over that ground, the plants’ genome changed back to the wild type of the original genome: they remembered what they were supposed to be! Is that not beautiful?

We’ve done this :-)
We even have our chicken house as a geodesic dome and that is the home of hens that are broody and hens with chicks. Those are the ones that live in the dome. My husband likes doing these precision designs.
For seeds, there is more than one way – you grow those seeds out for 3 seasons in pristine conditions, and after 3 seasons there is no more trace of the modification. Nowadays with the ‘killer genes’ inserted to make sure people cannot save seeds, I don’t know. I have not tried.
In the on-going attempt to polarize and divide people along every possible issue, the latest one seems to be COVID vaxed versus non-COVID vaxed. Will this be the straw which breaks the camel’s back?
In other words, will the next civil war be Mutant humans versus non-GMO humans?
I’m rooting for the Zombie Apocalypse “Left for Dead” crew.
The next flu season might be an interesting one… or not.

Lol… all I’ll say is this reminds me of a lot of human beings. Ie; most are convinced that they are a body, not a soul. How does one discover and confirm that he or she is indeed an eternal spiritual being and not a temporal human being? First up, one needs to make the desire an all consuming one. All worldly concerns are to be put in second place until proof is experienced. How, you say? Once the sincere desire is established, the succeeding steps will follow… ( trust, my dear Watson )…
Interesting story. My curiosity leads me to wonder how the owners will deal with the animal when fully grown and still wants sit on the rug in doors.
The simple story shows that belief is a matter of postulates. A postulate becoming reality once it’s accepted by more than just a single individual, in this case one species accepting a member from another species as one of their own. So beliefs especially, are constructions, and just as easily are able to be deconstructed. There needs to be a plan in place of course, as to what will become the new belief after the old is taken down, otherwise the individual could become pray to neurosis, etc. So much for beliefs.

Mother Russia is for the world, a country for the future, “once more into the breach dear friends, once more” (Shakespeare), and I wish I had time to read all the comments, the links and articles on Saker’s.
Seven years ago I dreamed of a major conflagration in the Ukraine, it will be terrible if anything like it occurs, God have mercy and protect the lands and people of the Ukraine from war.
eventho this “Whatever Happened to “Dead People in the Streets” That Images From Wuhan Promised?”
is a China bashing article it asks a few good questions and in its own twisted way is even a plausible theory.
But i must admit eventho i believe China did not spread/make the cold virus our “experts” are destroying our civillisation over, i do not believe China is above using the situation for their own strategic/economic reasons.

Solve this economic paradox.
If a business cannot pay the employees more than the retail value of the goods or services created, then who can afford to buy their products and keep any business profitable without going into debt? Its real simple math. We are all playing a game of musical chairs, because all accumulated world wide businesses cannot pay out enough money to all the employees (largely the consumers) to purchase the accumulated inventory created by all businesses. Hence, we have a system of infinite debt and guaranteed bankruptcy. There is a reason the world is awash in debt and a reason the FEDERAL RESERVE (i.e. lender of last resort) creates money out of thin air. It take endless debt to make the for profit system work. Its simple math and not religion where one hears stories of feeding 5000 with 2 loaves of bread and 5 fish.
A microcosmic example:
If I hire someone to make 1 gallon of ice cream and pay them $5, I must sell my ice cream for $5+profit. The person I hired only has $5. Therefore, the person I hired must borrow my profit margin to eat + keep me in the ice cream business before my 1 gallon ice cream inventory melts. If I go out of business (bankrupt) the employee loses their job too. If the employee makes two gallons for $5 matters only get worse.
Without 2 loaves and five fish miracles solve the mathematical paradox.
