The Drone sightings are worldwide especially around nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons facilities

People who don't understand that they are not just in New Jersey and the East Coast I think don't really get how this is a WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON.

I myself saw one of these things flying at 1000 to 2000 feet. And at that altitude (above the ground at sea level where I am) it is really hard to establish the true size of a drone like it would be if it was flying under 500 feet.

The other strange thing about the drone I saw was that it was quiet (so it had to be electric or other power source than an internal combustion engine or jet.

The other thing about the drone I saw was that if it had been higher in altitude (maybe 1000 feet or less) it would have hit the plane flying overhead that I was following the sound of to begin with. 

In other words I wasn't looking for a drone, I was looking for a plane whose engine I heard.

It's also possible now anywhere on earth to kill individuals from a drone using their smartphone as a targeting GPS device. So, it's likely people are now disappearing (especially where there are no witnesses) literally everywhere on earth. This is going to be more true every day likely this century also. It might be the real war of eliminating leaders worldwide before they can lead anyone worldwide in all countries on earth.

An Unusual experience?

 I wanted to get a Leaf Blower but I wanted it to have a cord and not be cordless with a battery because I don't trust these kinds of battery operated leaf blowers lasting long enough to do anything.

I saw at the hardware store that they didn't have what I wanted so I was sad about this and realized I had to go somewhere else (maybe even online) to buy what I wanted today. Then I went to look for test strips for Bromine for my hot tub but they were out of these too.

So, as I began to leave the hardware store I noticed a fire engine outside parked behind my truck. However, I intuitively backed my truck into my parking space because i sensed I needed to a few minutes before. And because my Tundra is a 4 wheel drive it has extreme steering capabilities on the front wheels so I simply drove right out of my parking place because I was backed into the parking place. The man next to me in his car was blocked by the fire engine so when I moved my truck forward he had enough space to back out and leave too. It was for me a somewhat every day experience where God and Angels show me what to do in life. 

However, not finding what I wanted to buy was different too. However, now at least I know that Leaf Blowers that have cords are not common anymore like they once were.

I keep a 100 foot orange cord for outside for my gasoline electrical generator and for electrical powered things like Leaf blowers and weed eaters. However, because we covered most of the front yard with rocks and boulders in addition to pine and other trees I don't have to blow my front yard anymore. Besides, my wife has hired landscapers to blow away and leaves or pine needles off the rocks once a week too.

However, it was still nice to get into my hot tub yesterday before the rain storm hit today and last night.

Note: The reason I wanted a new Leaf Blower is that my wife and one of our housekeepers had given away or thrown away my last leaf blower which I found kind of upsetting too. However, if you are married often experiences like this are not unusual where something you wanted disappears never to be seen again?

I wanted a leaf blower so I could move all the sawdust from the 100 foot tree that came down because it is now the sawdust from cutting up that tree into rounds is about 3 feet wide and 25 or 30 feet long from my hot tub to my fence. However, our other house cleaner said that his kirby vacuum cleaner's blower attachment couldn't do that (even though he blew off the sawdust from my 2 by 4s I used to temporarily fix the rails until I can buy some more plastic wood from Timber tech. If you want to make a good deck and don't want to cut down more trees to do it, Timber Tech is a very good plastic wood company that you might consider.

We had a redwood deck but this deck only cost around 60,000 dollars (but it is a big deck) to replace the redwood deck with. The previous redwood deck was there from when we moved in in 1999 until likely around 2015 I think when we replaced it with a plastic wood deck.

for example, to replace our redwood deck would cost between 80,000 and 100,000 dollars in 2015 to 2020 range and likely much more now. Also, there are less and less redwood trees on earth so maybe preserving them for posterity might be nice.

What is a Living Buddha? This is a Tibetan Buddhist way of speaking about present day Buddhas living here with us on earth and beyond

Of course you can believe whatever you want to. 

However, my experience took me to studying with Tibetan Lamas directly starting in 1980 with my family.

I learned about "Living Buddhas" like The Dalai Lama who are different than most other people on earth in that they are conscious reincarnations of living Buddhas from the last several thousand years time here on earth.

Living Buddhas (at least in Tibetan Buddhist Circles) are found by elders when they are children who can recognize items that were theirs in their previous incarnations.

They put about 10 different sets of their possessions like prayer beads and eye glasses and Dorje and Bells before them but only one set was theirs.

Then the children are allowed to choose what was theirs in their previous lifetime.

The Dalai Lama also successfully did this when he was between 4 and 6 years old which is why he is a reincarnation of the last Dalai Lama before him.

However, he is not the ONLY living Buddha, there are many of them. 

And if you are intuitive like me you experience how time and space alters being around a Living Buddha.

My first experience of the weather changing was when I was near Kriyananda when I sensed this phenomena who is something like this but not Tibetan Buddhist. I felt the weather change when I was in the same county as he was. After this, I became aware of this phenomenon first hand and I was amazed.

Now I look for these changes in the weather as a matter of course so I know I'm in the presence (within a county or so) of a Living Buddha.

It is very obvious to someone as intuitive as I am when I am near (within 100 miles now) of a Living Buddha or Many Living Buddhas. The experience is both overwhelming and very welcome being around beings who are so evolved through thousands of years of reincarnation and evolution as human beings here on earth and beyond in heaven realms.

I share things that I intuitively sense that will keep the human race from going extinct this century and beyond

 I have always been very intuitively gifted in many different ways. I often know what is going to happen before it happens which is one reason both I and my family are all still alive and relatively okay.

The point of all this is: "I can often see the future" so I have a sense of what will keep the human race going through everything that comes.

There is a program on Streaming called "Silo" that my friend wanted me to watch. I couldn't watch it because I tend to be claustrophobic. However, living underground for many people is coming because of Global Climate changes from the weather. 

Unless many people are living underground on the great plains for example, there will be no wooden houses standing there within 50 years (or very very few) and living in a trailer or mobile home might be a "Suicide Choice" like playing Russian Roulette too.

However, of course living in a flood plain underground isn't going to work unless you are living in a submarine made of metal that won't rust or Cement with swimming pool paint on the walls inside so you don't drown during the next flooding sequence too. So, I see living on hills or mountains as the best choice for actually living underground and not in a flood plain anywhere on earth.

Could people live under the oceans or lakes?

I suppose this could be possible but what happens when the weather turns the lakes or oceans into 25 to 30 to 50 foot waves like just happened where I live.

For example, it is thought that a surfer just rode a wave over 100 feet tall just north of Santa Cruz at Mavericks Surfing Beach which has the biggest waves in California there. I have myself watched surfers there surf 25 foot waves which happens quite often there.

So, living under the ocean (unless you are in an underwater cave or something might not be a good idea. You would have to live so deep in the ocean (below 50 feet depth likely) to make this work where the waves wouldn't affect you as much.

Often I watch the otters play and eat sea urchins where I live in storms around rocks and I am amazed that they can do this even during a storm with 10 to 20 foot waves but somehow they can.

So, I suppose humans can adapt to almost anything on the ocean (especially with jet skis like Surfers often use to surf 50 to 100 foot waves so they can go fast enough to catch those waves by being towed by someone driving a jet ski on their surfboards.

So, the point of this article was to share that I am intuitively gifted enough to help create the survival of the human race just with the articles I tend to share.

It also might help you and your family to read what I have shared too so you can survive whatever comes here on earth (or beyond) too.

Survival is about not Giving up

 It's not that you don't cry yourself to sleep and feel very alone except for God and the Angels. It's that you give it all to God and wake up a new person the next day having let go of the old one you were the day before. By giving it all to God you sort of reincarnate as a new person each new day.

I can see why some people who cannot seem to do this become alcoholics or drug addicts. But, the natural way to move on is to give your problems to God, to the trees to the ocean to the mountains. Talk to your friends and relatives that you love. Talking about what is bothering you can be very or completely healing.

I had to set a boundary with my daughter regarding my daughter and it was very hard last night but an angel (one of my relatives passed on) came and helped me last night. I realized that my 2nd marriage of 14 years that ended 30 plus years ago could never have been saved. This also saved me because I have been processing this lately.

MY life the last 30 years has been very good and I remarried and my life has worked ever since. My health hasn't been always good but I have stayed alive after doctors thought I might die in 1998 and 1999. So, I'm still alive at 76.

My friend says I have a very strong body and this likely is true because of my great Grandmother who lived to be 105 and my Great Grandfather who lived also in Kansas from the 1840s until the middle of World War II and who was a Captain in the northern Army during the Civil War there.

Also, my mother, her mother, and both her sisters lived to 90 years of age.

So, I think my physical strength comes from my genetics and my disposition which is always hopeful though extremely pragmatic also.

Survival is about not giving up.

It doesn't mean you don't cry yourself to sleep sometimes in life. In fact, if you can't cry yourself to sleep often you die of cancer from holding it all in too much.

You have to release your pain somehow in order to live a really long time. However, I suppose not everyone wants to live a long time.

IF you are not happy with your life often you don't live very long.

So, maybe the most important thing is to find what makes you happy and go live there with that person if you can.
