Hey all ...
Forget all the nice stuff for just a moment ... I'm think I'm thinking "real" when I say that I feel we (as in everyone) are looking at a Bardo ... a transaction point. It's almost invisible ... but if you move your head slightly, your head bumps into it.
I'm looking at the signs ... and it looks like it's time to get out of the way and move to the farm. For those who are economically secure in the suburbs or urban centers, you'll most likely be fine...
But I'm seeing several "bad signs" that means all that lies ahead isn't good for those who aren't planning. The three most telling "signs" are the upcoming world water shortage and the upcoming "Global Recession."
I remember all those stories my mother told us about life in the depression. They lived on a farm in Mississippi so they had plenty to eat. No, things won't get that bad, but ... for black folks, working class people, as well as some less-than well positioned people of color ... it might be really painful time.
I began looking at websites like: www.unitedcountry.com and www.city-data.com/forum/u-s-forums/ about a year ago. The average age of the American farmer is 60. That means there are a LOT of small farms in the south and the Midwest that are selling for very little money. The trick is to find an income stream that you can live on anywhere.
I've left the non-profit world and became a truck driver. But there are sooo many ways to make money if you have land. Plus, there are a LOT of Baby Boomers and white "Back To The Landers" beating a path out of urban America.
I just want to post this as food for thought. (I personally think the values of urban America is killing us. Plus, if you plan to have a family, doesn't it make sense to let your children grow up strong and healthy ... hanging out with the 4-H Club rather than Spooky on the corner??)
Here's some thoughts I just grabbed off the net about water and economic fears:
World Water Shortage 2012:
The World Bank reports that 80 countries now have water shortages that threaten health and economies while 40 percent of the world — more than 2 billion people — have no access to clean water or sanitation.
A story in The Financial Times of London began: "Water, like energy in the late 1970s, will probably become the most critical natural resource issue facing most parts of the world by the start of the next century. Within a few years, a water crisis of catastrophic proportions will explode upon us — unless aroused citizens ... demand of their leadership actions reflecting vision, understanding and courage."
