Change.

We all go through change. Some of us were Army brats and moved from state to state or even among countries. Different schools every couple of years. New friends. New teachers. Having to figure out how to fit in with a new crowd. For a young person that can be incredibly stressful – and sometimes pretty fun.

Some of us worked 20 years at a company establishing themselves in a career. Building a reputation around high performance, capability, and loyalty. Go to work and do the job. Security is built – until corporate leadership changes and your job ends. You’re fired.

Divorce. Relationships end – or sometimes change dramatically. Happiness. Sadness. Anger. Calm. Frustration. Relief. Pain. Numbness. Sometimes all of these at once. Life can suck sometimes.

Some lose parents at young ages and that changes the direction their life heads from that point on. Some parents lose children which is one of the worst things imaginable.

Traumatic events happen. People react differently. Some make decisive, logical, and smart decisions. Some don’t. Some people drive forward. Always focused on moving forward to a better place. A place they want to be. Some sit and wallow in their problems, in their situation – and remain there. Stagnant. Lost.

I know. You’re thinking……“What the hell’s the point of this? What are you getting at?”

Look at what has occurred in just the past few months. It’s not some meme on Instagram. We have a pandemic going on, riots, civil unrest, mass division among the population, and an economy in serious trouble. It’s real. Some are struggling with the reality of the change that is happening in this country right now. Will everything be OK? What does “OK” even mean?

How are you reacting to it all?

The point is how will you, your friends, your loved ones react when things get really bad? What we are going through now is nothing compared to a true economic collapse, or mass grid down situation. Imagine Russia launches an EMP attack and all we’ve heard happens – the powers out, 75/% of cars don’t run. COVID will look like a cakewalk compared to 330 million people without power. Without refrigeration. No air conditioning.

How will you react?

How will you really react?

Something to think about. Something to seriously consider.

    Change in deed, it’s the one thing in life we can all count on, as far as the events I’ve seen over the last few months, out of all my considerable thoughts on how it might all end this wasn’t in any of my realms of possibilities, never thought I would see so much unfold and happen so fast, I’ve truly felt in limble about this since it all started I mean I’ve been preparing for ten years now, and I mean dedicated preparing yet I feel like I’m in the deep end of the pool and don’t know how to swim, I’ve went through a whole spectrum of emotions as I’ve tried to understand what and why things are being played as they are and I’m really convinced we actually watching a presidential coup, let me slow down and try to explain my thoughts, we have a pandemic where there’s a very promising malaria drug combinations that Hong Kong and South Korea and many, many doctors from all over the world have said it’s completely effective in dealing with the virus, but you have a corrupt media, pharmaceutical industry and maybe even the CDC constantly advocating against it as millions of people around the world die, they have even stopped pharmacies from fulfilling doctors prescriptions (that didn’t even happen as they pumped millions of opioids into the American public!) this medicine is over the counter in most other countries it’s even listed on the world health organizations website as safe with a better rating than aspirin! So I thought it’s money right? Greed, the route of all evil right?? I’m not sure anymore, since the beginning I’ve had this unshakable feeling like something bigger is going on here, there was to much hype, something was out of place. You have major social networks censoring anything that says the truth about this drug, even The sitting president of the United States, these companies have to know there will be repercussions from doing such a thing right??? Sure they do, I mean trump already opened Pandora’s box allowing them to be sued FACEBOOK is about to have to pay all of its users 200 to 400 each for illegally using their face software tech… so tell me what would make them push forward with all the blowback, their political opinion, I’m not so sure anymore. Now let’s take a minute to look at a third peace of the puzzle, what about these democratic sting holds where they have the governor and mayor with coordination from democratic senators boldly lying to the American public, forcing their police to stand down or be defunded or both as these paid coordinated terrorist groups incite riots and terrorize their local cities and populations, there’s no way anyone in their right minds would think this wouldn’t hurt them at the ballot boxes? Right? I mean this all seems to had up to a hugely coordinated blitz on the outcome of the upcoming presidential election! Joe Biden is pumping out commercials saying he we bring our country back together and be a president to both sides as his side is creating this entire unrest! The truly amazing part of all this to me if I’m right is the sheer number of people on their side that actually knows about this plan and yet no leaks?? Are they trying to terrorize the American public into given in to their demands for power? A good friend of mine said something that was profound to me the other day, he said you things in the short term would be better for us all if Biden would just win…. and you know what he’s right, but Marxism always starts out that way doesn’t it? And then there’s the vaccine… now this one took me way down the rabbit hole and to be honest I can’t tell conspiracy from fact on this one but I will say there’s a lot we don’t know about that wohon lab, that actually could be the understatement of the year in fact! But there’s stories that bill gate was there in 2019 faucci as well, pardon my spelling I’m sure I’m getting these names wrong, the point is the vaccine, mandatory? There’s talk, and for those who shake your head think about those people who’ve been arrested for gathering in groups, fined for not wearing a mask, or arrested for not going to church and then tell me “that will never happen here” and lastly coin shortages pushing cashless society much anyone? Quincentennial??? YOU DECIDE, as for me my situational awareness is on fire, bug out plans are made, guns are loaded and I’m making moves to get ready!

    Well said John Hancock. If there is any justice these Marxist rats will all be held accountable with people like “DR” Fauxci being hanged.

    Change is as natural as life itself, and as irresistible as the tide. It’s not the change and what affects us we are fearful of, not really. We have a tougher time changing with the things that we are impacted by. It doesn’t matter whether it is fair, or not at that point. The older we get that harder it is to roll with it, because our options become less and less, as well as our optimism about life in general. It isn’t different that advertised, we just didn’t understand yet.
    You make decisions, and take responsibility for the afterward, or the affects of the decisions. ALL of social, and political upset, is due to people that either don’t recognize their responsibilities, or want to divert responsibility to someone else, so they can tell themselves they are not at fault. It doesn’t change the facts of course, only “perception” or “consensus”. Two words I loathe. As if believing, or worse making someone else believe a thing makes it so. Ridiculous.
    To those that try to get facts and use logic to make our road maps and decisions. We have lost nearly all trust in anything called an authority. Technology has not been friendly when it comes to the glut of opinion force-fed to us every moment of every day, with “agendas”. Another favorite word .. BAH! There are really good people, that you are not allowed to hear, and really bad people you cannot avoid.

    I’ve personally experienced most of what Rourke mentions, and it is daunting. I’m an old school guy, so I tend to take those things and shove em in a box and lock em away, because I have family and extended family that depends on me, regardless of how I “FEEL” . Feelings are irrelevant, if you have responsibilities, We can’t afford them at times. Other things come before that. Am I broken? Of course.. we all are, whether you believe in pre-destiny or freewill. We will do our best, we will learn and we will continue until we go into the after. We didn’t ask to live and we cannot control whether we die, but maybe if we control how we live, we can have a measure of control over how we die and what we leave. Because you cannot do it all, does not mean you should not do all you can. If you internalize the last statement, you become truly free. If you HAVE done all you can, how could you be otherwise. Have we ? Done all we can? If I have the luxury of asking that question, the answer is no. Not a BAD no, but a get to work no. IMO.

    Our American experiment has been under attack beginning the moment the idea bloomed, and always will be. It is not so much attack, but that any ideal is subject to both anarchy and entropy. Any organized thing, whether psychological, animate or inanimate requires energy to maintain integrity. If you divert energy, it will eventually fail. We have lacked political will to maintain the ideal and it is failing, as is to be expected. The knowledge of which, if embraced rather than resisted can be liberating. Because you know where you stand.
    IMO we do not need “old” America to be resurrected. There has only ever been one resurrection and is much more difficult to accomplish than birth. We need a NEW America, a Reformation, and we can make it anyway we want. Do we have the energy ? No, not yet, but it is coming.
    The laws of conservation of mass and energy seem to imply that the new is always built from what’s left of the old? Living things don’t like being disassembled do they… they struggle over it. Is that what we are seeing now ? Maybe. Probably.
    We were created, so something is greater than we (depending on what you call it). Draw on that, and have faith.. just a little. Do the best you can with what you have. Plan, prepare, and roll with change and adjust. It isn’t awful friends, it just is what it is.
    I remain faithful and Hopeful.

      This is indeed very true, sometimes the fields must burn in order to remake the soil again. Not yet, but yes it’s coming, I think we are witnessing the dying of this country, and as painful and outraged as I am about it, I am also a man who knows and studies history, the revolution took many years of oppression to get its spark that lit the fire, unfortunately it will come to past again, mankind must be pushed unto the brink before he will sacrifice everything to change it… it’s happened 100’s of times throughout history, and it will happen this way again as it always has.
