I in the past compared what we are presently going into as something like a World War II or Great Depression kind of experience. But, what it really is sort of reminds me more now of what I experience watching Avenue 5. I think you have to sort of be able to laugh at all this on a certain level to survive it.
What's happening to us all is just so ridiculous like being in a war with people being blown up right and left that you almost need some kind of Gallows humor to get through something this insane.
People who are just wound too tight might not make it through something like this. You have to be very sort of pragmatic and basic not to snap during the next 2 years of this bullshit!
Just remember if you aren't adaptable enough you won't make it through all this either. So, maybe it's time to pray some to get through all this. If you have never lost a friend or relative or anyone close to you it likely is going to happen now if you survive all this so sort of gird yourselves for losing people who you might be acquainted with at the very least or actors you love on TV and stuff like that or politicians you either love or hate. This is who you likely are going to be losing a lot of through this the next 2 years or so.
God Bless You All!
I'm really sort of grateful at this point at all the really tough stuff I already survived since I was born before 1950 because it makes all this seem much easier to deal with for me.
There is a useful story I have here for you:
In the 1800s and 1700s and likely before British Sailors wore bell bottom pants. The reason they did this was that bell bottoms could be turned into life preservers by tying off the legs and catching air in the bells and using them as floats to stay alive and not drowning when in battle when your ship sank.
Also, men over 25 or so tended to survive more than younger men because they had already survived so much in their lives. So, an older guy over 25 might say to himself. "Well, I'm not dead yet and if I just stay calm maybe I'll get rescued today or tomorrow and survive all this hanging out here in the water. So, the ones who survived more tended to be over 25 and had already survived many near death experiences as adults and young adults already. Whereas younger men would panic and soon drown because of lack of experience dealing with a near death situation.
Likewise, older folks having survived everything from World War II to the Korean War to the Viet Nam War, to the Gulf War to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars to 9-11 to whatever have already seen a whole lot and might just take it one day at a time now too and be okay.
For me, likely I will be okay just from doing a 4 day vision quest in 1983 and hiking and camping a lot and being a survivalist in 1980 burying food in 50 gallon drums that was non-perishable where only I could find it. Living out in the country and up in the mountains like in Mt. Shasta was helpful in preparing for all this kind of thing too. It's just the country way of thinking that is going to save a lot of people the next two years or so.
Being around too many people just means you are going to be watching too many people that are eventually going to snap in one direction or another through all of this. I've seen this happen before and it isn't pretty to observe up close.
For example, watch out for neighbors with loaded guns from now on because within the next few weeks there are going to be people who are going to snap for one reason or another because they never faced something like this ever before. So, be careful out there.
God Bless you all Worldwide!
