"America by Bradley Manning" (God bless the whistle blowers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5vYFl0z9g0




You ready? Here we go...down into the rabbit hole...

I know this chick named America,
she's married to a man who's been scaring her,
he protects her, but he lies and steals,
and cheats...while swearing upon her seal.

She's heard rumors of clandestine, backroom deals,
and getting off on enemies losses in the field,
but lately, someone's making 'em squeal, and
now she's nervous, about how it's making him feel.

She's seen things, but it's more than that,
she's been clothed and adored and worn the hats,
she's been housed and fed and adorned in tats,
and enjoyed being an accessory, before his acts.

So now, she's as guilty as him, and
if she doesn't fix it, so will be her kin,
and that WILL be a sin, when her
man makes his move, will she too or blow in the wind?

Remain status quo, accept the life,
become an accomplice, and let it slide.
Is it worth her time, to keep her turf and pride?
Were it up to him, would she live or die?

You can fool some people some of the time, but you
can't fool yourself forever, so stop lying.
Can she, find enough backbone to climb,
out of this pit of despair, where the water's fine?

Can it be time for some amnesty,
and come clean, and trust her man to be
the man he claimed to be before transparency, and
stop withholding rights of fellow humanity?

She'll forgive him if he can, but if he can't,
the Apocalypse of Truth will divorce their hand,
only to reveal a greater land...
rock will stand where the secrets wash away with the sand.

Let's Stop Playing Their Game

Anyone out there ever read "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand? She suggests that the creators of this world will realize their visions and accomplishments are being perverted and bastardized by those with lots of power and little standards...so they retreat from the mainstream and disappear with like-minded people into their own reality...away from the power hungry, the fear mongers and those who conspire to control creators for their own twisted ends.

I would suggest that's what's happening to USA's version of democracy. Our great vision of equal opportunity and "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" has been replaced with "the American dream," brought to you by big businesses who tempt the masses with credit lines to fund your dream...until 90% of you default on your loans, and then your dream is absorbed by the big business who sold it to you in the first place.

Weird? No, it's just BIG BUSINESS. Why would they dangle the carrot in front of the consumer? Because consumers pull the plow with little gain in return.

How would we combat this? By NOT PLAYING. We have an infinite amount of opportunities and options within our own social circles and families to make our lives satisfying and abundant. When big business or government or military sees the People as "masses of numbers" instead of individual lives who matter, the temptation is to treat them as numbers in an amoral perspective that leads to an uncaring nature revolving around gain at whatever the cost, meaning: if we play their game, we will be treated as cattle, moving from pen to pen, being milked and prodded all the way to the slaughter house.

Let's stop playing their game, and let's begin our own.

What do you want to play?

The People's Power

With all the conspiracy theory out there about what the "powers that be" are up to, I think it's important to remember the People's Power.

We are individual beings of living light. Science has been proving that little by little, and many religions have come to that conclusion as well.




That's pretty radical.




As beings of light, we are energy (or even angels) and have the power to use prayer/meditation/positivity/affirmation to change our reality. Right now, the world is waking up, and regardless of religious or scientific belief, we KNOW how powerful we are when we THINK together.

While we live our out normal lives, let's also affirm or pray these kinds of concepts to further the creative perception of our planet:

1. We, human beings, are united on our Earth.
2. We are harmonizing the Love of ourselves and each other to find harmony in our actions with each other.
3. We are affecting our physical world with positive change.
4. We are finding WIN-WIN solutions for all humanity to live in peace and enable each other's "Life, liberty and pursuit of happiness."
5. Our personal differences are embraced by our singular purpose of respect and empathy for one another.




Will you guys add some to this thread, and I'll make a HUGE list of beautiful ideas for the World to read? Then we can translate them into all of our languages, and send them to the rest of our planet.

Open Letter to anyone in Government, Military or Big Business who has witnessed corruption

Please let the People know...I would recommend WikiLeaks.



You are people like us, and we understand. You are not guilty of being an accomplice unless you keep hiding any abuse of the system. Drop all fears of retribution and simply come clean. If you are benefiting to the extent that it feels as if you are trapped...we understand...we would probably feel similarly if we were walking in your shoes.



The times have changed, and the tide has turned...people want the truth.



Please...blow the whistle. The sooner we get clean, the faster the dominoes will fall...and we will rise from the ashes and make real evolution happen. Let's get free...because we shall know the Truth...then that's all we can be.



Transparency...it's the apocalypse...but that's a good thing.
