I\u2019m sure there are some readers who feel that I accentuate the negative over the positive in my postings here. My answer would be, \u201cDo you want me to lie to you?\u201d I\u2019m not trying to get you to sleep with me. A lot of you can accomplish that without my help. Sometimes I feel like I\u2019m in one of those zombie movies that I don\u2019t watch because I am too busy avoiding the zombies in the street. Some things are very clear to me and they are clear to others as well. This gives me a confirmation about what I am seeing. I cannot understand why so many more people cannot see what is happening. I have to assume that it is because they are seeing what they want to see because reality doesn\u2019t jibe with their plans for the future.<\/p>\n
People pretend that something is other than what it is because they think that is going to influence the outcome. Maybe they\u2019ve read about positive thinking or visualization. Maybe they\u2019ve got Nom-Myoho-Renge-Kyo playing in the back of their heads or they\u2019ve been having a liquid lunch with Louise Hay. I\u2019m all for the power of positive thinking. I employ it on a regular basis but\u2026 I\u2019m against pissing in my own ear and telling myself its rain.<\/p>\n
I believe that if you lie to yourself then you are certain to lie to others. It might make you popular with a larger segment of the population. It might put you on the rubber chicken glad-handing circuit and maybe you get to sit on the couch with Oprah but the last thing we need any more of is beautiful liars who won\u2019t see what\u2019s in front of them and don\u2019t mind taking others along for the ride. It\u2019s exactly that kind of mentality that got you where you are today \u2026and you want more?<\/p>\n
Nadya Suleman is the poster girl for where Western Culture is at today. For all of the great things we could be up to and inquiring after, Fox News has the larger audience because it reduces everything to the basest and most common denominator. There\u2019s a price for this and you can see what that price is by paying attention to what is disappearing. It\u2019s that simple. If ever a culture needed a bitch-slapping it\u2019s the one we\u2019re afflicted with today. You will wake up or you will be woken up and your sugar plums are going to turn into Umeboshi plums with a Natal plum garnish. <\/p>\n
I may like them but Umeboshi plums do not taste good on a deformed palate and Natal plum will stick you good. Nature has a way of telling you when something is wrong and it is called, \u2018pain\u2019. What you\u2019ll do is look for an allopathic, pharmaceutical solution. What you\u2019ll do is drink and deny. What you\u2019ll do is try to escape but since it is a part of you, I am curious about where you think you\u2019ll go without it tagging along. You can\u2019t fix something by treating the symptoms but that\u2019s what you want to do. You want to suppress the information that is telling you\u2026 you have to change your style.<\/p>\n
Now you have a president who looks good. He talks good. He put the same people who created the present mess in charge of cleaning it up AND he\u2019s got a Blackberry. I see a lot of foxes with smiles on their faces and a big chicken shortage. Obama sure does like to drop Lincoln\u2019s name\u2026 no surprise there. He\u2019s a Howdy Doody president and he\u2019s dancing to the same strings that you are which is why you\u2019re all in sync with being out of sync.<\/p>\n
