I don’t want to sound overly religious or self-helpish in this article. But, I must write an article on this very important subject. Many people have a difficult time creating a life they want for themselves and most of the time it is their own fault. Usually people create themselves as victims of circumstance or environment. This is a faulty belief because we all create the circumstances and environment that we live in.

I was told many times when I was younger that I would never amount to anything unless I got a high school diploma. This was very false and I never believed it. I could have listened to these people and never sat on my hands and felt sorry for myself. I was told there was some ceiling on what I could earn or who I could be if I didn’t do certain things. I know this is false. The universe is infinite and there are hundreds of paths to success. At the time I was about 18 I read ‘Conversations With God’ by Neale Donald Walsch. In this book the author has a conversation with god and writes a question, then the answer from god. I know it sounds crazy but it’s a great book. I got to meet Neale a few years back and I believe he was divinely inspired to write the book. It’s hard to get people to read these days though. Especially my generation. Lets fast forward 7 years to now.

My mother has had to listen to me over the years attempting to explain the principals I learned in Conversations With God to her. She saw an Oprah episode about something called The Secret. I was at first a bit skeptical. But, nonetheless I watched the Oprah episode with my girlfriend and the subsequent follow-up. I noticed that it was a condensed version of what I already knew from Conversations With God but put in a different way and in to video format. It tends to be very easy for people to absorb the video format these days. My mother decided to order the video and we have all watched it a couple times. The secret is a a secret to controlling life and the universe that has been held tightly by the most powerful of us for thousands of years. It’s more of a universal truth and this being the information age it was bound to get out and become widespread. It is much like magic when you learn it but you use it you will see magnificent results. I would guarantee it. So, I highly recommend buying it and checking it out. It’s one of the most important decisions you will make in your life.

I’ve always been extremely worried about our country straying away from the foundation of freedom it was built on. I suspected something was going on that just wasn’t right. This something seemed to be eroding our freedoms and slowly eating away at what it means to be a Citizen of the United States. I suspected, but was not aware of actually how deep this goes. It’s a story that starts around 1913 and ends in the devaluation of our money, the removal of personal property, the abolishment of our constitution, and the beginning to a world government. Sounds like a conspiracy theory? Yes, but the facts add up. I’ve read about this around 2001 before 9-11 and read more about it afterwards but I wasn’t sure about what exactly to do. It still wasn’t enough information. I was outraged that I had been lied to about everything from taxes to our constitution. I was embarrassed at the complacency and apathy of my fellow Americans.

Now, it takes quite a bit to make me afraid. I refuse to live in fear. When I do get fearful I tend to look for a solution than to bow down to what I fear. Some how I came across this video America: Freedom to Fascism which is a movie created by Aaron Russo that he released to the public through google video and is also available on DVD. What I learned from this video about the history of our country, the IRS, the Federal Reserve, and the big plans of those in power disgusts me so much I have no words to explain how angry I am. I realize there is nowhere in the world I can go to escape what those in power want to do but there are things I can do to help. I want to help secure freedom from tyranny for my children and the future generations of children. This is a hard fight though and I’m not sure how we will win but I believe we can win. I hope you all watch this video and do what you can to help reverse the process which is happening right now. I’m going to be researching what I can do and how I can apply my skills. But, trust I will be doing something.

Apocalypto was a really good movie, if you can stand the blood and dig through it to get the message. He talks about the Mayan culture and pretty much describes how it was already conquered from within before the Spanish came and destroyed them. The movie plays out ritual Mayan sacrifice and shows a general lack of value for human life on the Mayan’s part. It seems to me he was almost saying the Mayan culture deserved the destruction that the Spanish conquistadors brought with them. I’m not sure I agree with that but the Mayan culture, as depicted in the film, was a picture of how evil human beings can be to one another. Of course the Dark Ages in Europe weren’t much better. So, while this is a story that definately needs to be told, I don’t think the Mayan culture should be seen as savage beasts. This was a point in their society that was a very dark and savage time. However it needs to be remembered that European cultures, Asian cultures, and many other cultures had one as well.

Thought I would modify this entry a bit. I did see the parallels to our own society in this film in regard to the environment and fear mongering and that’s the message they were trying to potray. The main message was ‘When a culture becomes wasteful, dangerous to it’s people, and laden with fear, they are sewing their own destruction’.
