What is going on with this small little world of ours…

Just another collection of thoughts...

One half, wants/wants to sell you, something new every five minutes and the other half wants to kill you if you don’t blindly follow some maniac or other…

The British can’t make their mind up on anything...

 The Germans, effectively, wanted a fourth Reich...

The Chinese wants domination of “it’s” world and cares not what people think...

The Russians… Enjoy both the freedom of living under a likeable Lenin and watching all the dash cam carnage online...

The Saudi elite covet western items while condemning western values for its populous…

North Korea keeps poking the US with it’s little nuclear stick…

The Americans are voting for a new “leader” between a very skilful, and rich by some very dubious means, "non truth" teller and a man who may well be the living incarnation of Zapp Brannigan but, strangely enough, may actually do something other than line his own pockets.

America… Massive country… Massive Ego… Massive prison service. Not so much “three strikes and your out” as “three strikes and you have a job for life”

Did you know as of March 23 2016:-
The American prison system is massive. So massive that its estimated turnover of $74 billion eclipses the GDP of 133 nations. What is perhaps most unsettling about this fun fact is that it is the American taxpayer who foots the bill and is increasingly padding the pockets of publicly traded corporations like Corrections Corporation of America and GEO Group.

The Bank of Mum and Dad… A whole generation of people today who have to borrow money from the very people who forced the house prices up in the first place.

Shareholders... The people who control a company they have no other interest in other than how much money they can take... If you had none would your products be cheaper???

Greed… Something nearly everybody has… To some it’s their God... People want to sell something for thousands that costs ten pounds to make... But to most it’s something perfectly normal, without any conscious thought of it’s effect… “I want this more than you” is the mantra of many a price rise…

Consultants… The people you pay lots of money to to get an answer, sometimes, that you might have got for free by asking your staff..

Austerity… “difficult economic conditions created by government measures to reduce public expenditure”…

What a strange thing to do in a consumer driven economy… everybody and its offspring wants to sell you stuff whether you need it or not and the government wants you to pay the tax but not buy the item… Go figure...

NHS becomes the NFHS… leave you to work that one out…

Private police/fire/ambulance services will be the norm soon but surely there can be no conflict of interests with business panels replacing councils

2106 Rio… my favourite quote… “Cyber Crooks Expected to Take Gold at Brazil Olympics”

Mind you… Bet the populous were more nervous upon hearing that the “tour” bus would not make it across the border…

I Wonder What You Will Be Someday

Entry into this world is, for most, painful…

To be squeezed and ejected, from water to air…

From warmth and protection, to cold and vulnerable…

From the gentle beat of a heart to the symphonies of existence...

To be aware of life, rather than wrapped in a thought…

To see more than the womb that was your world…

To see, through a blur, your new life unfold…

Your journey just beginning, but to what will it lead…

You grow and crawl, then learn to walk…

You learn to talk and fall over too…

You crate such memories for those who see…

You can understand a smile, but not a scowl…

But I oft wonder on the way to guide…

You need to know your boundaries, at least for a little while...

You need to know what’s hot or not, to keep your limbs intact…

You need to know a right from wrong, but who’s is the question…

I applaud those who teach with a premise of control present…

I condemn those who teach with control active...

I praise those who teach with realisation of ability…

I repulse those who teach a closed mind…

School approaches all to soon…

And you leave your second womb…

People jostle all about, some you know, some I doubt…

First day, first play, first to say “Hi”

You learn and learn the skills of life…

As life teaches you skills of it’s own…

You see the bad, You the good…

How will you choose what’s understood…

Family should teach you a way that’s safe…

But, sadly, this is not always the case…

Some are open and teach many views…

Some are closed and you cannot choose…

This time of growing should be free from care…

This time of learning should show what’s out there…

You should not be taught to fear…

You should never be taught to hate…

School is over all to soon…

Hormones kick in and you sleep till noon…

You find your partner, if lucky, your mate…

sometimes you know from the first date…

You expand your world through travel…

And learn new views on life…

You dance and laugh with someone..

And that someone is now your wife…

Jobs have come and gone…

One gels and life gently slows…

Time now for memories new…

But most of all, your time to teach...

Another life comes into this world…

You watch it being born…

Amazed in every single way

You look at your own baby and say…

“I wonder what you will be someday”

Most nights, when I sleep I dream...

Most nights, when I sleep I dream...

Most of these dreams are weird and very multi tangent

Mostly I remember snippets of these upon waking but they fade to quickly when I try write them down

But some just keep reoccurring… more fleshed out each time…

This is a synopsis of the latest…

Standing on an edge above the universe yet seeing everything right in front of me... The wars.. The lovers.. The stupidity of most races…

Trying not to look, to hard, in one direction for as soon as I do I’m there and a puzzle to solve before I am back standing on that edge again...

This time it’s Anguilla a small green planet in the Kellion system a few million human like people on a few trillion tons of rock

The water here is thicker, than most, and little life exists in the shallows but in it’s deepest depths there are the beginnings of another race. The next to inhabit Anguilla… possibly…

The puzzle, maybe, is whether to help those already here or those who will be...

Anguilla is lucky in that it only has three races.. The Klemmen, the Gueeds and the Angs, who are the remains of the first race...

For longer than recorded time the three have never all been in agreement, and peace... There is always some small part of their world being argued over…

For the Anguillians do not fight wars… None of the races produce many offspring and each just wishes to survive…

But those emerging from the waters will not be the same… they can spawn in thousands when the food supply is good.. or less when it is not… so all they will see is food…

For when a mind is simple it just wants to survive. It has no thoughts of learning, no thought of art, no concept of crime…

I look at Aelion the leader of the Angs and marvel as his skills. Stand amazed at the sculptures he takes decades to make and the patience he has to teach others...

I look at Gldes the leader of the Gueeds and am impressed with his guidance of his people to greater learning and the written arts...

I look at Kmlem the leader of the Klemmen and find such wisdom within this single person and how he imparts it to all his people, simply stunning...

In all this vast, beyond comprehension, universe there are few places that in their isolation evolve in, relative, peace… War is the norm… Greed is the driver… Jealousy it’s mistress…

So why am I here…

This time there is no puzzle… only to sit and watch and learn…

To learn the hard fact of existence…

I have helped so many end their war or started one to end their suffering but …

Did I really do anything…

I sit and watch for millennia…

Watch the waves of creatures who have no name, climb out of the sea…

They crawl then walk across the land and eat all they come across, all but those who hid to deep…

Then the swarm retreats back to the oceans, to where the food is now…

And the few survivors that are left come out of hiding…

Their statues dust, their scriptures rotted away but their knowledge of what was still clear…

They build again... The three races appear again and Anguilla rises once more but all is not peaceful and there is war... 

For those who saw the desolation passed down the memory of what was lost… some sort to recreate it and others let loose the greed they had suppressed before and sort to own it all…

I have no concept of ownership, or greed, so cannot understand those who do

A lesson never learnt is that in whatever a race thinks it is true… That truth exists for only as long as that race exists…

I learnt…

To help others, both in starting and ending wars... But to wish the need was not there

To understand the beauty of the moment perfection is created… A statue carved, a great novel written, an understanding reached or, simply, someone finding their soul mate...

I understand this beauty does not need war to exist but those who crave ownership and greed do not

Millennia of destruction offset by moments of perfection, is their legacy… 

But in the end everything is lost in the timeless eternity...

I saw the worlds before this creation and I will see the worlds in the next for eternity is longer than even I can comprehend...

I am not a God...

I have no, and want none, possessions...

I have no power other than what you give me...

I am one of many...

I am a thought...

Respect for Orlando

The news of the deaths in Orlando was shocking, both in the number of dead and the stupidity of the shooter..

We all have our views on the "lifestyles" of others but a community that only enjoys life should not be treated like one that seeks to control or harm...

A recent Facebook quote, shared by a friend, got me thinking on this subject...

Also hate the word Homophobia... not because of the word; or its meaning, but because of the, apparent, need for it...

Don't, totally, agree about the "you're an asshole", but it is well used in it's context...,  as disagreeing with someone's point of view is the reasoning behind many of mankind's advancements...

But if your disagreeing to degrade someone... Then you're an asshole...

Your not scared... Weeeellllll... yes, some, people are... often because of what is in the next paragraph...

I have always felt that Homophobia is a phobia... But it is a personnel one... Back in the 60/70's it was known as *****bashing... But the more I heard people bragging about it the more certain I was that they were not scared of Gay people... But the fact that they might be Gay themselves... And therefore beat up or degrade them at every opportunity was "necessary"to prove themselves not...

It was so surreal listening to idiots boasting how "manly" they were, watching how their eyes changed while talking... Going from an ego boosted glow at the start to a dim scared "I am not gay... I am not gay" look as they walked away...

You could say I lost a few friends back then... Gained a few to...

Being Gay holds no appeal for me but I respect those who genuinely are...

While individualism is allowed in the world... Groups, of all types, will both survive and have to survive tragedy... And I wish we could all have space and the freedom to, simply, BE

People from the top to the bottom of society still think.... "Why can't you live by my rules - There good rules" when, in fact, they are saying "If I cannot/will not do this then you cannot/will not either"..

Sure they live,love and carry on enjoying their own life... but any chance to boost their ego's by reducing it in others seems, to some people, as necessary as the two things you can do without concious thought... eating and reproducing...

Whether it's in the monetary sense of "socialise costs and privatise profit" to control and enjoy the riches while ensuring others don't

Or just in the good old fashioned "You WILL do as I say"... Because the fact that an individual CAN think for themselves really scares the elite... a fact taken to the extreme in some countries....

Control is what some people seem to think life is really all about... 

I feel ashamed for all who died or were injured...

I feel angry that someone felt they had to do this...

But I also feel pride that the whole community came together in support... And that all LGBT communities WILL live,  laugh, love and remember...

Time I posted something lighter..

A child doth scream in the isles…..

Its Parent just stand there and smiles…..

A watcher pulls a face of disdain…..

So the child screams even more, as in pain…

The parent just shakes their head…….

Any more of that and I'm buying Marmite instead…..

The child shuts up, walks over and says…

What sort of game machine is that….

Why is life like Star Wars

The Referendum, and the thought of living in a superstate, drives me nuts... VOTING IN OR OUT MEANS CHANGE... Everybody vying for their own point with little thought to how we got to this point in the first place...

Why does the Human race try so hard to either destroy or control itself...

Its like Star Wars offers the only life choices you can make...

You can either be with the Republic or with the Rebellion... There is no other choice..

You may think there is... But if you hide away in an Republic area you support the Republic by not opposing it... And if  you hide away in a Rebellion area you support that by not opposing it...

The mantra of "it's nothing to do with me" is the biggest blind truth you can ever tell yourself...

You could say... "well... at least the Rebellion listen to you and wants to help"

You could say... " well... the Republic has our best interests at heart"

Both end up being the same, in our self destructive nature...

The Rebellion, if they win, carry on down a path that leads to self destruction through corruption...

The Republic , if they win, carry on down a path that leads to self destruction through corruption...

(Corruption does not always mean monitory... Corruption through Ideology also destroys... Sacrifices to the God's only has an effect on population control, as any rain, increase in harvest or the sun rising is purely coincidental...)

And then the idiotic merry go round starts all over again...

How many great civilisations have there been in the millennia of mankind...

How many have survived past "the next latest and greatest of all time" regime...

Were the Incas the Republic until the Spanish came along to make them the Resistance...
 
Are you the Rebellion if you live in the jungle with a hard, but free, idyllic lifestyle and are hunted down, converted by the Republic ... even if means wiping out thousand by introducing viruses...  

The need to "own" and "have" seems to supersedes all... Why value people when you can value money and possessions

Why can "civilised" mankind just not "get "a life...

You want to know a fact...Things only cost more because you put the price up

I rue the day that some accountant worked out that if your product costs £1, you have to sell it for £2.50 to make 60% profit... and love the fact that if you use the 100% profit rule you buy an item for £1 and sell it for £2...

The UK EU Referendum

This is my view on things...

If you agree, after reading, that's great...

If you disagree, after reading, that's great to....

For the important thing is to vote the way your head tells you to, as the heart can get a little fuzzy on the details sometimes...

Anyhoo....

I hear, see and read all these things that our "glorious" leaders tell us will happen if we leave... But some of the stuff Mr Osborne has been coming out with are just so far out of the ball park. You just gotta wonder how dumb he thinks people are...

He cannot hit his own targets, or keep his promises, so how does he suddenly know, with such certainty, what will happen...

Mind you... Dodgy Dave has been an apple short of a fruitcake with his comments too...

And then there is Boris... Now there's a man who is proud to be and apple short of a fruitcake and is damn clever while doing it...

I do like Boris... A politician who does not answer a question with a question but gives you an answer...

But the truth is....Nobody knows the truth.... and that's the truth....

Staying IN or OUT...  WILL mean change and that is the truth...

The money men, and those with money, want to stay in because they see it as beneficial for making money...

The government want to stay in because all they can see is ways to exploit it... and make money...

Neither seem to be able to grasp the fact that the EU, i.e. Germany, wants to control everything.... including money...

The unelected autocratic bureaucracy have been churning out laws and legislation by the van load to achieve this end...

Some say.... (imagine a Mr Clarkson impression here)

House prices will go up... well my thoughts on this is that house prices go up through greed, so that's not going to change while people praise money and "ownership" above all else... The mantra of consumerism... "I Want... therefore you cannot have"

A house in the 80's that was worth, say, £100,000 and now costs £250,000.... it only costs more because people pay more... there has been no increase in the number of bricks its made from... It did not ask to be worth more... It does appreciate all the new paint, paper and windows...

The NHS will be saved if we leave.... Nope... It's doomed....

Our own government has been actively making it fail to its present point and is now selling it off to the highest bidder, or is that contributor to the cause.... Can't make a profit if its a free service...

Don't need to be IN or OUT of the EU for that to continue...

Thousand of jobs will be lost....  Quite possibly... but if less product does come in from the EU then we need to start making stuff again... we were very good at that once... so not so much jobs lost... just different ones...

We are safer IN.... Err... NO... open borders between stable, similar minded/lifestyle countries is one thing but to open borders to bring in a, so called, cheap labour force that hold vastly different, even ignoring our, values, is not safe...

The EU answer... an EU army... forget we already have NATO... An all new EU army will solve all the problems... Err... NO... Just another tool for the unelected autocratic bureaucracy to use to create its superstate...

I Say...

I like being British... I like being English... I do not want to live in the EU state of...

I like miles per hour and driving on the left...

I like our postcode system... 

I like the Monarchy, but am not a royalist...  The Royal family do far more for this country than most people will ever understand...

I would like being able to choose what power of appliance I prefer...

I would like to keep eating fish caught by a British trawler..

I like freedom of choice... not limitation of product or packaging so it packs, stacks and ships more cost effectively...
                                                      -------------------------------
Our system is far from perfect and accountants have made it way to profit orientated...

Also I have no idea of what will become of the UK once it is owned by everybody else...

But to have an unelected autocratic bureaucracy that's heading towards a, lets call it an, Orwellian state by Marxist means (feel free to use your own terms here), with a bit of self destruction along the way, is not for me..

So my vote is NO...  No to staying in the EU unelected autocratic bureaucracy...

I wish that staying in or out of the EU was the biggest problem at the moment... But standing up for your country, your rules, your heritage is a start...

Wars are great for population control, technology advancement, and restructuring the landscape... But suck for those who don't survive it...
