Loudmouths

Teddy Roosevelt, had a famous saying, "Talk softly, and carry a big stick". These were wise words because, if you truly know what you are talking about, you don't need to it loudly. Now a days, we have a proliferation of people, who go by a different creed; "Talk loudly, and carry a big chip on your... Sign in to see full entry.

And Good Will To All

Last post I talked about the need to love more than we ever have before. Its true, we do, but, how do we accomplish this? After all its difficult enough to love those close to us at times, let alone total strangers, and our enemies. We need to realize that it is impossible for anyone to love...

After posting "Fear Mongers", I received a couple of comments, stating that they believed what I was saying to be true; however they didn't know what they could do to change things. First of all, let me state that helplessness, is an effect of fear, and exactly what the global elite wants to... Sign in to see full entry.

Fear Mongers

It has long been known that the simplest, and most effective way to control a population of people, is through fear. The reason Vlad the Impaler did the gruesome acts he did, was to strike fear in the local population, thereby making them easier to control. The reason most religions put the fear of...

Working Class Hero

Looking back through history, it seems that whenever there has been a major threat by an evil force, or an invader, there has been a positive force to thwart or oppose that threat.

The Art of Listening

Last post I talked about a different way to verbalize one's opinions, and needs, in a more effective manner to enhance communication; this post is about completing the communication process, listening. Communication, is by definition, a give, and TAKE of ideas, and needs. Too often, when we discuss... Sign in to see full entry.

Communication Breakdown

I am troubled by the hostility I encounter everyday. It does not bother me that people are vehement about their beliefs, but rather the way they communicate them to others.
