How Much More Will We Allow?
When was the last time you were wildly enthusiastic about a cause or ideal? Did you march in picket lines or carry posters? Were you part of a cause with lots of people or was it something you were excited about by yourself?
What is it that stirs the minds and hearts of people strongly enough to get them off their chairs and take action? Each generation is different. What is it for our generation? Terrorist attacks? We can all join together laying flowers on the graves of innocent lives that have been lost. Is that what we do in today's world? I don't see much pro-active except perhaps the belief in a free internet and open source software.
It's easy to believe in free government, free thought, free conscience, free speech and free men and women. We all want to believe in these things but we don't want to get passionate about them. We don't want to miss our favorite tv show to attend a local activity group. We don't want to physically commit to anything that might make us uncomfortable. Action is where the power is and action is what is needed. Action is what is missing in our society today. People would rather watch a football game than play a football game.
Our passivity will cause us to loose these freedoms if we don't take action. The erosion of personal freedoms and liberties has been going on for a long time. The weak require complex laws and special circumstances to create an artificial environment where they have an unfair advantage. There will always be a movement by the weak to make our laws more complex and coercive. We need to be vigilant and keep our laws simple and understandable. True genius simplifies so that all can understand. The freemasons created a world where business was done on a handshake and a person's word was good. We have lost the path and need to find it again.
There is nothing wrong with simple competentcy in life. There is nothing wrong with keeping things simple. Making things complex is simply an attempt by the weak to take an unfair advantage.
Logic and persuasive arguments won't bring simplicity back. They don't stir the hearts of people. Simple slogans and speaking from the heart are the only answer. The things we need to do are so simple even the most uneducated person can understand. We need to believe in the good that is within each other.
But first we need to be educated. Speech must be free. The freedom of speech is the most precious gift and right we have. Each one of us has an insight and bit of the truth that needs to be told and shared with others. Are we doing that? Are we telling others what we think and what we believe? How can people know who we are if we don't let them know where we stand on core issues? I know that I am.
We don't even ask for the things we want or need. When is the last time you openly told someone what you wanted or needed? How are they supposed to know if you don't tell them? When is the last time we told someone we were fed up with the war in Iraq and $3/gal gasoline prices (soon to be $4).
It's time we started talking about what we want and letting other people know where we stand. If there ever was a time to be passionate about the erosion of personal liberty it is now before the Patriot Act takes it away. Stand up and let people know that you are not satisfied with the economic slavery that is being imposed.
Things are the way they are because we have allowed them. How much more will we allow before we say enough!

Who knows why one person gives up and dies while another struggles on through overwhelming odds and comes out on top? We all want to survive. But are we willing to do what needs to be done?
