Just Boycott Plastic - MEME - gvan42

Global Awakening is Real and Happening Now.
Before The Internet, Everyone Watched Television 
or Read Newspapers and We Simply Believed 
the Corporate Brainwashing.

They Told Us what They Wanted Us to Know.
Now, Anyone can be a Publisher... 
and there is an alternative.

It is Very Clear that all of the
Television Stations are Reporting 
the Same Stories again and again... 

The News made us feel angry and helpless... 
Something was wrong but we can't do anything to help... 
We were all like that years ago... 
NOW WE CAN WAKE UP. It's an Option.

“Surely by now there can be few here who still believe the purpose of government is to protect us from the destructive activities of corporations. At last most of us must understand that the opposite is true: that the primary purpose of government is to protect those who run the economy from the outrage of injured citizens.”― Derrick Jensen, Endgame, Vol. 1: The Problem of Civilization

“It's no wonder we don't defend the land where we live. We don't live here. We live in television programs and movies and books and with celebrities and in heaven and by rules and laws and abstractions created by people far away and we live anywhere and everywhere except in our particular bodies on this particular land at this particular moment in these particular circumstances.”― Derrick Jensen, Endgame, Vol. 2: Resistance

“What if the point of life has nothing to do with the creation of an ever-expanding region of control? What if the point is not to keep at bay all those people, beings, objects and emotions that we so needlessly fear? What if the point instead is to let go of that control? What if the point of life, the primary reason for existence, is to lie naked with your lover in a shady grove of trees? What if the point is to taste each other's sweat and feel the delicate pressure of finger on chest, thigh on thigh, lip on cheek? What if the point is to stop, then, in your slow movements together, and listen to the birdsong, to watch the dragonflies hover, to look at your lover's face, then up at the undersides of leaves moving together in the breeze? What if the point is to invite these others into your movement, to bring trees, wind, grass, dragonflies into your family and in so doing abandon any attempt to control them? What if the point all along has been to get along, to relate, to experience things on their own terms? What if the point is to feel joy when joyous, love when loving, anger when angry, thoughtful when full of thought? What if the point from the beginning has been to simply be?”

"A Spiral of Deadheads." OOBE... (FICTION: NOT ONE WORD IS TRUE) We didn't really do this... Is it Possible to write a Story that Induces a Trance? Here is My Attempt...

Imagine that you are floating in a tub of warm water... every muscle in your body is completely relaxed...

your mind drifts and contentment blooms like a time lapse film of a rose... blossoming...

you leave your body and rise up to the ceiling... look back and see it resting there... 

with a cup of tea in it's hand... ahh... mint... 

as you observe your body, your mind seeps thru the ceiling... and you see the world... 

there is a forest... it is for... rest... 

On the shore of a lake a spiral of deadheads dance around a fire... 

the flickering light appears to be perfectly synchronized to the rhythm of the drums... 

alas...the reversal of entropy is merely an illusion...

a dancer reaches into the shadows and lifts a five gallon can of gasoline...

it is tightly sealed... he places it on the fire... and they all move back...

it will take time for the gas to expand enough to burst the can... 

Meanwhile, a slender woman with strawberry blond hair raises a conch shell to her lips and draws a deep breath. 

She blows a long note signaling the beginning of a new era of mankind... 

Everything is dripping with meaning... Significance saturates every leaf of every tree ... 

then a tiny hole appears in the gas can and a cone of fire reaches for the sky... 

you contemplate metallurgy, welding and strength of materials... 

then the gas can resigns itself to fate and the plasma finds oxygen... 

the spiral of deadheads emit a massive yeah! and you drift on...

your body transmogrifies itself into a bear and goes fishing in a creek...

your paw slaps a salmon onto the bank and you eat the fish... somehow, you have never understood the world so well... 

alas, the oneness is merely an illusion... and tomorrow it's back to reality... deep sigh... 

but for one shimmering moment, bliss... it does exist, the door has been opened... at least once... 

but... shuts again... Plato's "The Cave" is so very personal... We all go back inside to watch the Shadows on the Wall... 

Knowing... WHAT? Cooperation is better than Competition? Gaia is Real and I'm the Brother of a Tree? Cat? Spider? Rock? Ocean?

We are a Beautiful Family... Life... and NON life... Do We MATTER? What IS Matter? Waveform or Particle?

or Both at the same time... Food for Thought... and you drift on...


I went to an AA Meeting yesterday. It was good. The Subject was Meditation and One of the Steps recommends doing Meditation to Improve your contact with God.

One thing for sure, it is impossible to meditate while drunk. So, AA gives us the opportunity do do things that we would never think of on our own. Most of the people who spoke said that they did meditation but they had no idea if they were doing it right... or if it was doing any good... or doing anything at all... However, all were glad. Some expressed the experience of being in a Stressful Business Meeting and then taking a Break and going for a walk in the woods. Obviously, a good idea... no matter what you call it. 

My own experience is that I "Meditate" during TV Commercials. I turn off the sound, close my eyes and silently say the Serenity prayer while breathing slowly and deeply. MUCH BETTER THAT WATCHING TV COMMERCIALS. I try to avoid people pouring poison in my brain. I always turn off the sound when Trump is Speaking. There is NO CHANCE that he would say anything that would be valuable to me. 

I also walk out onto the back deck at home and Observe the Trees. We have a creek and when there is water I hear Frogs. I try to look, smell, taste, feel and listen to everything. I have no idea where the frogs go in dry weather but after it rains there is a very interesting three dimensional chorus of Croaks. I remember once I experienced the 17 year cicadas in Rock Creek Park, Washington, DC. That is an amazing sound. Little grasshoppers flying in random directions chirping. There are waves of sound... I'm not sure if there is any intelligence driving the sound but it appears to ebb and flow like surf at the beach...

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
