BEYOND THE LIMITS OF BORDERS

For this piece I will begin with a plethora of recent intellectual voices via the internet which tell everyone  who is connected to it concentration of too much wealth has finally led to concentration of too much power and the masses of people have little or no hope now for improvement in their lives. We are falling without a net. Politicians are fully controlled by the enormously rich 1/10 of one percent  of the population.  There is no influence at all in the area of policymaking on behalf of the rest (99.9 %) of the population. It’s over. Democracy, that is. Not even half baked democracy is pretended by citizens anywhere. That is the bad news.

Now for the good news. This is the moment we have all been awaiting for a very long time in every country around the globe.  We, mostly, just did not have the wisdom to see it coming this way. That is simple to understand now.  Almost everyone has been operating inside a political world and cannot see outside that box to realize that the news “It’s over “ is good news because it forces so many to either give up on life or to look outside of the political box. Fortunately, for the rest, a few have already been through that hopeless time of despair and survived by finding there is a grand life to be had by all beyond the blinders of a political world. Take off the blinders, you put them on.

All those super wealthy few are as vulnerable as any poor peasant can be and as powerless as any drunkard with a bottle. Drunk on money are they.  And, in truth, money is an illusion of wealth. The power of the people is the power to say “No”. We will not patronize your e-commerce stores nor your brick and mortar stores. We will not take your jobs and all the benefits you can design to attract us. We are free people at last. A CoVid 19 lockdown has clearly demonstrated your powerlessness vividly. We work for each other! And we have faith in our ability to frame that in a way that requires not a single boss. Only trusted servants may apply to carry out the new way of living on the planet by every single soul of us. We are  Brothers and Sisters of Humanity. This is a new Planet.

I suggest a serious reviewing now of the film “It’s a Wonderful Life” directed by Frank Capra many years ago. It was not very successful at the box office on release but over the years has become more and more popular until now it is a worldwide favorite and for many Christmas would not be complete without it. It is so important to note that none of the people who are responsible for making the film and acting in it made much dough for their efforts but are loved by so many they cannot be counted. That energy is what we are brought at this happiest of times to rely upon. Now we move forward together as freed people. Love is our leader. In the words of Capra’s film, “No one is a failure who has friends.”

The movie had a chance to grow as it has because its copyright expired after 28 years and through clerical error was not renewed so television stations and theaters around the world began to show it as often as they wished without paying a royalty to a copyright holder. See how love works in its time? Love is so efficient no organization of human greed can touch it! Let it work for you! In the beloved names of Bert and Ernie if you remember being a child let love have your hearts and minds and hands and feet. In your heart you know that every life is important. As you watch the film consider yourself to have been cast in the role of Clarence the little angel who wanted his wings more than anything, and got them! All you need you have been given. We need not await death to find Heaven, we make it ourselves, but together, in the sprit that each one of us is as important as the rest.

I am not your teacher or guru. I am but a simple swan who sees how great each of you really are and hastens to tell you so.
