My Wish For You

Shrink not back in the face of adversity.
For in facing the fire we are forged stronger.

Hold to your compassion in the face of insanity.
For to do otherwise is to follow the path the insane travelled.

Resist not the forces of evil.
For to do so is to become evil.

Instead, advocate freedom.
For it is restriction that binds, lessens, inhibits and weakens.

Focus steadfastly on your goal.
Redouble the purpose you have that is to help.

Let obstacles not thwart you.
Let distractions not divert you.

Hold firm the edges that mark the boundaries of your forward progress.
Pour the coals on your purpose.

Be fearless in your living of life.
Because you are immortal and indestructible.
It is only your body that perishes, not you.

107-Year-Old Pianist Releases New Album After 102 Years at the Piano: ‘Youth Is Inside Us’

 

Pianist Colette Maze

One of the oldest recording pianists in the world has released her sixth album at the magnificent age of 107.

French pianist Colette Maze finished her sixth album in May 2021 after playing her chosen instrument for a grand total of 102 years. Young at heart—and healthy, despite some deterioration in her eyesight and hearing—she retains a sense of youthful reverence for the world around her, which keeps her going.

“Youth is inside us. If you appreciate what’s beautiful around you, you will find a sense of wonder in it,” she told NPR.

Note To Self

Note To Self

Nice, but falls slightly short of the truth. We each have a Basic Purpose which I have found in helping people identify theirs, is a specialisation of the desire to help that is in alignment with your talents and personality.

Either You Know History Or You Trust The Government

Either You Know History Or You Trust The Government

This is a datum of senior importance. Vital, in fact, as it is potentially the difference between life and death.

You cannot know your history AND trust your government. You cannot do both. For those who still believe a single word the government says without verifying it from independent sources, here is a history lesson.

The US government has committed the most atrocious crimes against humanity.

Were you aware?

Bayer distributed a drug called Factor VIII in the 1980’s tainted with the HIV virus intentionally, infecting and killing thousands of people around the world……

Jonas Salk and the U.S. Government experimented with the flu vaccine and exposed mental patients and prisoners in Michigan to the pandemic virus in 1942……

The FDA approved a drug called Vioxx by Merck Pharmaceticuals in 1999 while knowing that it increased the risk of fatal heart attacks and strokes before it even hit the market.This drug was responsible for at least 55,000 deaths in America……

The U.S. Government was involved in the forced sterilization of immigrants, people of color, poor people,unmarried mothers, the disabled and the mentally ill that spanned 32 States in the first half of the 20th century…

Pfizer was behind the illegal clinical trial of the drug Trozan in Nigeria in the 1990’s during a meningitis epidemic that left 11 children dead.The Nigerian Government did not authorize this trial and was without parental consent.

It was the U.S. Government that told African American males that they were being treated for “bad blood” after luring them in with free meals,free physicals and free burial insurance. Some of the men had syphilis,others were given the deadly venereal disease.The study was later discovered to be an experiment of syphilis left untreated… better known as the tuskegee experiment.

GlaxoSmithKline published a flawed study and misled doctors into prescribing the dangerous antidepressant Paxil to children and had the public thinking that it was safe.

The U.S Government in 1956-58, was responsible for the U.S. Army experiment involving dropping hundreds of thousands of specially bred mosquitoes to see if they could be used as biological weapons,specifically, yellow fever.

CDC scientists colluded to cover up a relationship between the timing of the MMR vaccine and autism in African Americans that was first discovered in November of 2001. Rather than reporting the results to the public, all data regarding this relationship were destroyed at a secret meeting held some time in August/September of 2002. This fact has been affirmed via an affidavit given by Dr. Thompson to Rep. Bill Posey in September, 2014.

The first polio vaccine was developed by Dr. Jonas Salk. Human experiments using this vaccine were conducted purposely on orphans in government/church run institutions because they were vulnerable and didn’t require parental consent signatures, as they had no parents.

The vaccine was “declared safe” (as they always are), but tragically, that vaccine gave 40,000 orphans polio and permanently paralyzed hundreds of them. At least 10 children died as a result of vaccine-induced polio. All injuries and deaths were under-reported of course by the same authorities who orchestrated the atrocity. (This is known as The Cutter Incident.)

Not one of the aforementioned examples here are conspiracy theory, they are factual and verifiable.

Random Thought For The Day on Communication

The mind is an interesting thing. In some respects it is like a radio receiver. You could plot the quality of the reception on a scale. At the one end of the scale it can receive an accurate signal at the correct volume and take in the data. At the one end of the scale there are numerous ways the message can be not received.
The signal can be too weak so the message is not understood.
The message can be too strong so it blows the receiver away.
The signal can arrive at the same time as another, so the two messages conflict and not received.
The incoming message can be filtered out so it is not received.

You may have noticed some of these manifestations when trying to communicate with people.
Some people tend to reject most of what they hear.
Some people will reject anything that is not of a particular flavour.
Some will appear to be listening but take in nothing.
Some have data that conflicts with what you are trying to communicate so your message bounces as invalid.

The important thing is to keep communicating data important to you at one of two frequencies or wavelengths.

Either the one with which you feel the most comfortable or the one that is most likely to be received and ensure a duplication at the receipt point.

Either will work in different circumstances.

The former will resonate most with beings similar to you so you will build a set of comm lines with people most like you. Which has pros and cons.

The latter will be better received and understood by whomever receives it. This will build comm lines with a wider group of people.

Whichever you choose, keep communicating. It shows you are alive. People who do not communicate are dead.

Happy communicating!

Gandhi … A lovely little anecdote about one of life’s more interesting characters.

Gandhi
When Mahatma Gandhi was studying law at the University College of London, a professor by the name of Peters disliked him intensely and always displayed animosity towards him. And because Gandhi never lowered his head when addressing him, as he expected, there were always ‘arguments’ and confrontations.
One day Mr Peters was having lunch at the University dining room when Gandhi came along with his tray and sat next to him.
The professor said, “Mr Gandhi, you do not understand. A pig and a bird do not sit together to eat. “Gandhi looked at him as a parent would a rude child and calmly replied, “You do not worry, professor. I’ll fly away”, and he went and sat at another table.
Peters, red with rage, decided to take revenge on the next test paper, but Gandhi responded brilliantly to all questions.
Unhappy and frustrated, Mr Peters asked him the following question: “Mr Gandhi, if you were walking down the street and found a package, and within was a bag of wisdom and another bag with a lot of money, which one would you take?”
Without hesitating, Gandhi responded, “The one with the money, of course.”
Mr Peters, smiling sarcastically, said, “I, in your place, would have taken the wisdom.”
Gandhi shrugged indifferently and responded, “Each one takes what he doesn’t have.”
Mr Peters, by this time, was fit to be tied. So great was his anger that he wrote on Gandhi’s exam sheet the word “idiot” and handed it back to him.
Gandhi took the exam sheet and sat down at his desk, trying hard to remain calm while he contemplated his next move. A few minutes later, Gandhi got up, went to the professor and said to him in a dignified but sarcastically polite tone, “Mr Peters, you autographed the sheet, but you did not give me a grade.”
