The Destroyers

Tomorrow, (October 21^st) is yet another predicted date for the demise of the world.  I have hesitated to speak about these predictions that certain sects in the Christian community keep telling us about because I don’t feel qualified to set a date for it.  Other than telling you that the inhabitants of earth are on a path to creating their own demise by their behavior, I would never claim that I know exactly when we will all cease to exist.  I will tell you that I resent to high heaven that the so-called predictors of doom have been adopting bits and pieces of Astrology to make their case for authenticity.  Unless they can use it to their advantage, these people normally stomp on and trash Astrology and call it Satanic.  Using hypocrisy to state their case will never make it possible to take them seriously.

For some reason, the people in my neighborhood have started cutting down the trees in their yards this year.  These are old-growth trees that are extremely tall and have stood for probably a hundred years or more. Until very recently my neighborhood has been like a sanctuary, once you drive off the main road into the subdivision.  Many of the backyards here had so many trees that it made you feel like you were in an enchanted forest in any direction that you looked.  If you allowed yourself the fantasy, you could almost imagine that a unicorn or some other magical beast might walk through here at any moment. I’m sure I do not know why my neighbors have suddenly decided that they would rather see car traffic and a deteriorating set of shops in a tired looking shopping center than the majesty of beautiful tall trees that have stood protecting them from urban decay for longer than any of them have been alive, but I am reminded of a Joni Mitchell song from 1970 when I look out my windows now.  It does only go to show that you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone.

In the Disney/Pixar film, WALL-E, people have left planet earth and are living in spaceships and the earth is covered with trash that they have left robots to deal with, as they are too busy with their technology to bother with the mess they made of the planet.  This is truly the future that I see for us rather than a lightning bolt being sent down from heaven by an angry God who is tired of our bullcrap and baloney and has finally decided that we no longer deserve to live. I’m not saying that a lightning bolt from heaven isn’t going to be far behind that scenario, but I don’t think that we will be gone tomorrow.  There are still too many things to corrupt and destroy on our own for now.

I have been reluctant to write any posts for this blog in nearly a year because I felt that I had already said all that I meant to say.  Once you have gone back to the past and learned who you truly are and what you are meant to do here, there is little more that I can say to people in a broad spectrum.  I am in no position to help anyone beyond telling them how and where to find the tools necessary for making the most of their lives with what they were given at birth.  These are the only real truths that you will find in this life.  If you are lucky, you may have been born into a good and intelligent family who can help you get the best start in life, but most people are not that fortunate.  It is more likely that you will be born into a family that doesn’t have a clue about the reality of the human species.  Most people are operating on lies that have probably given them a work ethic and the delusion that they are doing the right thing if they have money and someone to have sex with.  These ideals have gotten us to where we are.  As they become harder and harder to maintain, we have begun to take our frustrations out on other people because we don’t have any idea how to make the old standby ways of life work anymore.  That must be the fault of someone else.  They are being stupid and selfish while I always do the right thing. If we can just get rid of the stupid people who are screwing everything up we will have a nice life again. So this is where we are.  Like the trees that used to be in my neighborhood, life can never be the same as it was.  It is gone.  We don’t know why that is.  “Somebody else screwed it up with their stupid, selfish ideas. Let’s kill them.”  The problem here has many tentacles that I cannot explain to you as a group, but it actually just boils down to one issue that most people are never going to comprehend.  We are individuals who will not be able to stop the downward spiral in any way other than to prevent our own.  There is no social or political or religious answer for us except the one that was given to us at birth.  If you cannot access your connection to the universe to obtain a higher level of clear seeing, you do not have any answers that will make a difference.  Take your weapons out into the street and shoot down everyone who looks at you the wrong way or has a different opinion, but for every victim you find there is going to be thousands more who will never see things your way. When you finally realize that you will never rid the world of the dissenters, the only thing that you can do is decide that you can live with them or you can get out of the world yourself.  There are no other outward answers.  If you can communicate with the higher levels of intelligence, you will find that other answers do exist in the mental/spiritual realms, but they will require you to rethink your own position.  So, in the absence of solutions that other people must solve because you don’t feel like changing your point of view, what you have right now is the best that you are ever going to get.  You have no control over others who are different.  Not allowing for differences in people makes it impossible to have any peace.  The stage is set for everyone to die.  Even your sacred opinions are not shared by everyone so you can take your gun out into the street but so will someone else.  Which of you will pull the trigger first? That you care so little for human life and a safe, clean planet is the reason that it isn’t safe or clean or something that you recognize as right any more. Cut down the trees and see just how dirty and awful your fellow human beings have made our world. Take a good look as all of our illusions are being shattered and we can no longer pretend that this is a great place. Learn to like chaos and crime and want and need.  If you are in a position to hoard up the things that you need to survive until the Lord calls you home, you are pretty special.  “Who gives a damn what happens to those other people who are just too stupid and lazy to do as well as you have?  You aren’t as good as me or you wouldn’t be poor, so die.  You think that you are better than me because I don’t look like you, so die. You are a woman, men are better, so accept that I rule and if you don’t like it, die.”  Now that you have cut down the trees it is all plain to see.  “You are probably going to die tomorrow because you are stupid.  I won’t because I am so much better.” If for some reason this doesn’t happen, carry on as usual. We won’t need a heavenly deity to strike us down if we survive tomorrow. We can manage it ourselves thank you.
