Gifting 21

 We are bestowed with marvelous gifts.  Life itself bears witness.  

It seems endless what we can do, in spite of greed and control.  And that is the battle.

Medicating symptoms instead of cures is an example.  Health has become yet another avenue of control, for the sick are more easily controlled.  

Real peace  includes self defense, but greed and dominance block it.

The great gift of Freedom is suborned to limit people.  This contest continues today.  

The fallen, in darkness, have forgotten gifts, except the ability to dominate and favors given for subservience.  

Wherever we go from here, we must be free to fulfill our destiny.

Remember, for the free, so are the gifts.

For the dark/enslaved, there is always a price.

Then again, for we who seek Liberty, there is a price.

We have a gift to resist.

Control Redux.

Talked about it before and can't talk about it enough.  It is the crux of our enemies.  Yet, control can be both bad and good.

Controlling due to lack of self is a keystone for collectivists.  It began before when the fallen became so swollen with pride they forgot the Source.  

OTOH self control is paramount for individuals.  We mustn't go off half cocked.  There is a time and place for all behavior connected to Freedom.  Witness the Founders' course of action.  We must balance head and heart.  

Rule of Law in a Constitutional Republic vs rule of men in a democracy/dictatorship.  History hosts our thoughts.  

Thinking implies internalization.  One learns about oneself.  And it plays out among others.  

If people control due to lack of self, they don't have to think.  They don't examine themselves and project their illness on those they seek to control.  

Responsibility is the crux of conscience for Liberty lovers. 

Arrogance

 Someone was heckling the current Occupier.

He bade his security and meager followers to let him speak/rant.  What an a$$ the senile one is.  An embarrassment.  Such arrogance.

The attitude was condescending.  It was 'let the little man rave.  There is nothing he can do'.

Another oddity is wardrobe.

The real President seemed to have one dark blue suit.  I'm sure he had a closetful of the same cut, but the emphasis was 'we are here for the business of restoring the Republic'.

The current criminal has a big sharp dressed wardrobe.  Well, it does not detract from thievery and mental deterioration.  Arrogance.

Deeds, not clothes, make the man.  

There is a lot being done to counter our collectivist enemies.  They know it.  Thus the arrogance.  It is both a facade and their belief they are better than we.  Pride comes before the fall.

It is both the arrogance of ignorance and the ignorance of arrogance.  Actually stupidity.  

We have self assurance.  It enables us to do more than something.

Let the people see perfidy.

It will be replaced with Liberty.

Vulgar

 Not the Vulgar Boatmen rock group.  But a word that, like many, has textured meaning.

It can mean crude, offensive or common, public.  It can delineate from there.  

Comedy is telling.  Something funny to one might not be so to another.

There has always been shall we say, low brow humor.  It can be funny, depending on the attitude.

Previous comedy had been done with innuendo.  Now it's in the face, as it were.

There is a liberal comedienne who makes gross anatomical jokes.  It's disgusting.

There is a livertarian lady who is explicit, yet she invokes laughter.

The difference is simple.

The liberal is demeaning and appeals to dehumanizing behavior.

The libertarian lampoons our sexual behavior.  It mirrors our mistakes but celebrates humanity.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but there it is. 

The culture war builds up or tears down.  Sometimes bluntly.
