Make a difference in your life if you can

 What do I mean by this?

Teach someone to survive what is coming this century. Show them how to survive global Climate changes if they will listen to you. Their children and grandchildren will always thank you for this.

It isn't about electronics, It isn't about air conditioners. It's about: "How do you survive what is coming to us all in one form or another this Century or after. Unless you are physically and psychologically prepared for what is coming you won't be around very long.

When I watch "1883" it reminds me a lot about what is coming for us all. People have dreams and then there is the realities of life that they face. Are you adaptable enough to survive the next 100 years or so?

Adaptability might be the single most important quality that will keep you and your children alive through all of what is coming now. There likely won't be insurance for homes in most of California, Texas and Florida to begin with. So, how are you going to survive all this?

And the changes will just keep on coming.

I was with an 80 year old friend who I took to STarbucks because he is retired and owns land but is very remote from most people. he couldn't believe how expensive Starbucks presently is. I told him things are just going to keep on changing a lot. I told him that Americans who want to feel secure feel they now need 233,000 dollars a year to feel that they are okay as a family which is what I read recently. He just couldn't believe how expensive everything is. He took me to a lumber yard in this truck at 80 and bought 8 2 by 12s 16 feet long to fix his greenhouse because 10 to 12 feet of snow had broken his greenhouse last winter where he grows a lot of his food to live. He has solar panels on his roof and a gasoline generator because he is remote so he can live relatively inexpensively. He still goes out with a chain saw at 80 and gets his firewood to make it through the winters there in Mt. Shasta still. I said to him that he likely would have to go into assisted living eventually. He said he would never do that and I believe him. I said you need to get someone to live out here to take care of you until you die on your land then.

He listened carefully to me.

By God's Grace
