Carey rocks! I forgot she was at the Greater Reset so thanks for sharing. I’m with her, have been for awhile now, once you know the basics it does no good to keep shocking yourself. Focus on solutions and yourself. At some point got to say, “Yeah in good I know enough,” and start focusing on positive ways to break free incrementally.

I feel the same. . . except for maybe the sky, but sometimes I talk to the sun and sing away the haze. . . curiously it seems to work.

Often I think all the deep diving and insistence in witnessing all the little pieces is a trauma response. Scanning the room to see where the next hit or punch will come from when you're too little to leave.

I've been calling it Swimming with Monsters.

I have a hard time ignoring things. It is my belief that ignoring things has kind of helped to bring us where we are. *But*, here's where I am with this difficult subject: Don't ignore things... but don't *worry* or *fear* the things going on or about the monsters behind said "things". I have a lot of dark opinions that are sometimes mistaken for "negativity". Nothing could be further from the truth. I try to temper that darkness by focusing on the positive things in my own life and the lives of the people I actually love and care about. And, more importantly, I don't ignore reality so that I am better prepared to face it head on and be prepared to say NO. I hate to use the example of "covid" here, but it's the best one I have... I *knew* from the very beginning it was a scam because I had been paying attention over my lifetime and saw the lead up to this murderous tragedy. Almost 90% of Americans fell for it all, hook, line and sinker (and some are still falling for it!). I wonder what that percentage would have been if the people hadn't been wearing rose colored glasses? Anyway, I completely get it! I definitely believe we shouldn't pay attention to the insanity in our world and focus on things we actually have power to influence. But, I definitely believe that we should *see* what's going on. If that makes sense. Thanks for sharing this Rob (c137)

What if things start to shift?

That question is an example of how we can change "the inevitable."

It's a power we all have. A super power, no cape required.

I have to bring myself back to center when bad things happen, but I DO come back. xo

There's a T shirt that I have that says:

COMMON SENSE, it's so rare it's kinda like a super power!

( https://www.revoltwear.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/sp_model.png )

"Be the change you want to see in the world."

My fiance is facing this in her job where the whole thing was set up badly and is destined to fail.

I told her that all she can do is what she always does.

Be human and tell the truth to support each other and eventually others will stand up too.

Social proof is a powerful thing and she's been seeing that others are starting to speak up too instead of pretend like everything is fine.

In the future when the big bosses try to find out why things failed, she and others will be able to say why.

My T-shirt reads "Cannon Fodder." At my age that is probably all I'm good for. Anyway, good post. Enjoyed the input from the comments.

Simplistic brief metaphors are , really, so deliciously appealing, like a simple ice cream sundae of mounds of sugar and milk topped with a luscious red cherry. Basic, simple, and sweet to the nth degree.

I recall one such imprinted on a massive billboard by the road at a church in Hawaii. "Don't Think. Pray. "

Orwell is envious.

You forget that half of the power of the machine is to keep us focused on it.

I was so deep into the shit even before covid that I became depressed.

It wasn't until covid that I saw that there's not a lot we can do but it does help to know.

For example, Gaza... Horrible situation going on and the UN is designed to be powerless with the stupid single veto dictatorship. I know, but I rather not read report after report about it. I prefer a general idea of what's going on.

I think that's what TBTSB (The Powers That Shouldn't Be) WANT US to think-- that we can't do much about anything. But this is ignoring the entire meaning of FAITH. I use that term in its purest meaning... NOT religious, but akin to "hope"...

We have power we've been trained to disbelieve in.

We CAN use that power to create the future we want. The more of us that do that, the sooner we'll see it come to fruition.

sorry, all these comments got sent to spam, just discovered....true, true, I agree entirely. Short and sweet please, get to the point.

In the past five years I HAVE to focus on something in order to not go insane from the screaming microwave signal almost allways up high now.

Four fifths or more of internet a hall of echoes.

I stopped using the emails and now check my notifications on the website. Not sure how the app is though. I refuse to install an app for the same website that I can access through the browser.

i thought about that, yet, it's curious...just since feb 17...what'd I say then? haha...I have an ancient computer as weighs a ton minus battery, no apps for me! no abs, either, sigh

I just have to wonder how paranoid the program has to be to be paying any attention to me. Has Apollo's histrionic curse run out? Is Cassandra being heard? As we spin more into non-reality by the minute.....hold my hand, don't let go, it's all getting soo dizzy...

You were a different person then as I am different than I would have been.

By quantum leaps and bounds. Daily.

We got this. We join hearts and hands and wills. An unbreakable combination leading to complete unchallengeable victory, the final victory.

You can think and be discerning and you can notice what you're called to do. What every fiber of your being is saying.

It's a fine and delicate line.
