Clearing Things Up

Let's just get one thing straight before I continue with this project...

Everything I say is well thought out and designed for a purpose, a purpose that perhaps you do not understand, likely do not agree with, and, or think is not worth merit. Unfortunately, herein lies the truth. You do not think it is worth merit, you do not agree with it, you do not understand it. It is not my place to make you do anything. I am simply speaking my mind about a plethora of different subjects, life, politics, religion, and so forth. I am not stupid. I know that in the present state of this world, many of the things I say seem unlikely. However, just because something is a longshot does not make it worth less, or any less likely to happen. Things either happen or they don't. There is no in between. You can only make a prediction on whether or not they will based on the past and present, not the future. The problem is that predictions are for the future, not the past or the present. For things to change as they need to change much change is needed, enough change to change what change change changed. I am a believer in the impossible, and sometimes it will happen. (1918. 1918. 1918.) Even when the past and the present tell us otherwise, sometimes the future holds a suprise or two, or three, or eleventy, if you pardon my wordplay.

Hopefully you follow me. Hopefully I've cleared up a couple of misconceptions. If not, oh well, I can't force you to understand my point of view.

My Last

 My previous post was found as a blank page in draft form this evening.  I found the existence of it to be rather poetic.  So I published it blank as is over a year later.  Seems fitting to be honest.

Reagan, Deregulation, and the Fruit It Now Bears

President Reagan had an idea about how the world should run. He deregulated Big Business. That is, he removed the restrictions put in place that kept companies from cheating. He removed, primarily economic oversight. He said that it was unAmerican that in this capitalist society that such oversight, such restrictions should exist. To him, these concepts flew in the face of that illusive, figmentary idea we like to call freedom. He wanted Big Business to have the freedom to do what it will and believed that in doing so, said companies would check themselves. They would check themselves because it was in their best economic interest to do so. Yet, what he didn't realize is that what was in the best interest of Corporate America could be unknown to Corporate America itself! That Big Business could be akin to a compulsive gambler who as they fall further and further into the hole panic and begin making riskier and riskier bets, thus then subjecting themselves to even more debt ...

My Own Mind

The human mind is a duality.  That is to say, there are two people inside most people's heads.  It is the interaction of these two entities that determines who you are.   The first is the sum total of all of your experiences, it is a body of knowledge that you reflect on when thinking or meditating.  It is not the consciousness that we traditionally think of as our mind.  It's behind that.  It's the voice that alters your mood, makes irrational fears float to the surface in times of stress, and ultimately has a significant impact on you as a person.   The second is your consciousness.  It is the core of you as a person.  It is the voice you hear in your head when thinking or reading this sentence.  Some do not have that voice, incidentally.  For instance, those that are born deaf often have that "voice" represent as images.  Others simply don't have it.  This voice is the real you.  It's the part that you in...
