The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion. – Albert Camus
Human Rights Video #7: We Are Equal Before The Law
One of my principle concerns with the current scene is the rapidly escalating speed with which human rights are being trampled. The lack of peace in certain regions is proof positive that these principles are actually valid and needed, more than ever.
This trend needs to be reversed. The entrance point is educating people that they do have rights. Hence this post and the request you share these posts so more people are aware of and insist upon their rights so that we can live in a peaceful society.
Watch the video and if you think so too, please share it!
Do you know it is a fundamental right of yours to have your own opinion? You would not think so from the way some people (including the government) try to belittle you for disagreeing with them but it is.

A Great Ideal Scene for a Life – From Gary Hopkins
Live a life that you do not need to take a vacation from. Live in a way that makes yearly resolutions unnecessary. Make the kind of choices that leave you Happy and Healthy… where all of your needs are satisfied. Live a life where your only ‘wants’ are for others to feel as good as you do
Force versus Intelligence
Logically, harmony must come from the heart… Harmony very much based on trust. As soon as use force, creates fear. Fear and trust cannot go together. – Dalai Lama
Someone should tell governments this.Using force instead of intelligence, especially when it comes to madating health care, does not make for a long-lasting government at all.
Stop The Domino Effect
Om Kumar Shrestha posted this and I wholeheartedly agree.
Those who would be treated like human guinea pigs against their will in order to keep their jobs might think they are doing what’s best for their families. In reality though, they would be the first dominoes to fall in the subjugation of the rest of humanity. Whatever you choose to do, make sure you do it by choice. Your domino falling just pushes the next domino down.
Preserve choice. No to pharmaceutical slavery.
When one falls, we all fall.

(Tom: I would add to that. The best form of defense in a good attack.
If you are in an employed position start now talking to your workmates, your union rep and boss about the danger of vaccines and how this COVID-19 vaccine is a completely new type of vaccine, rushed to market, untested long term with who knows what effects on the humane genome.)

Why Do We Need Lockdown?
Why indeed! Because it has nothing to do with stopping deaths and everything to do with increasing government control of the population. Read and understand the Omnibus Bill already passed by the lower house in Vioctoria to understand the level of tyranny to which Andrews and his cohorts have sunk.
Adrian Gualano writes:
The Omnibus bill currently trying to be passed will give police (and non police public servants) the authority to arrest someone they “think” is likely to commit a crime. Courts.will have the power to detain your children for up to 30 months.
To everybody with children, this is the ultimate wake up call.
And yes of course this is an initiative of Dan Andrews , what other politician wants to take away your freedoms and break up your families?
This is not about health anymore.
If you don’t agree with the proposed bill, I suggest you start bombarding your MP’s with phone calls and emails ASAP. Find out who your upper house members are via the Parliament Victoria website and harass them like a telemarketer. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/legal-affairs/victorias-covid19-omnibus-legislation-an-astonishing-attack-on-democracy/news-story/018937689c5b12f84a3e3187bda77b53
It Is In Your Hands
As I thought of sending this the counter-intention arose that many who receive this would vehemently reject that they could have much influence in creating a better world.
If that fits you I would like to raise your perception of your cause level.
Every single action you do helps or harms. Every contact you have with another living being either drags them down, affects them not at all or lifts them up.
Just the mere fact that you smile at someone as you pass them on the street, the fact that you admire their dog or something about them contributes to them having a better day than they otherwise would have.
Sure, these are small actions when you compare to what the bad guys do at the other end of the scale, drop a bomb that wipes out a wedding party in Afghanistan or Syria, locks down a state for no logical reason and more but if you did your beneficial actions each day and figured out how you could do more and encouraged others to do the same, you could start a movement for good that could grow to be a tsunami that would totally overwhelm the negative influences on this planet.
It’s not at all hard to do.
Two days ago I gave a fruit cake to a new neighbour moving in.
Yesterday I was doing my chinups and body pulls a the exercise equipment in the park and got to talking to the girl and her personal trainer at the exercise station. From their conversation they felt inspired.
Tonight I saw a woman walking her dog. This boy is a brute! Looks like an American bulldog with tons of energy. Just wants to jump up and start biting in play. It’s only ’cause she’s a big girl herself that she can hold onto the leash and keep him (somewhat) in check. Now most people giver her and her dog a very wide berth but I go up and have a rumble with him. Consequently when he comes in the park and sees me he recognises a playmate. He and I have a quick play and I chat briefly to her. How much better must she feel not being ostracised by all she meets?
Tonight I also met two other sets of two girls walking their dogs. My Schnauzer and I stopped to chat to both and I met a bearded Collie for the first time. She was only 18 months old and quite reserved to start with but within a couple of minutes she was wagging her tail and enjoying a scratch from me as I spoke to her owners.
I acknowledge that all of these actions are only drops in the ocean and are not life changing. I do go for those when the opportunity arises. The ability to pull someone out of depression or to alleviate aches and pains or address long standing health issues obviously have the potential to change lives far more than a conversation in the park or on the side walk. But you don’t get people opening up to you unless they know you are safe to talk to so the first thing is to be in communication with those in your environment. Sometimes all it takes is a smile and a “Hello!”
