People hate being played so maybe some will stop. I pray it is so. But it's hard. The predators have been honing their game for thousands of years and are really good at luring the pets into their little cages with promises of all kinds of rewards that satiate all kinds of appetites.
The key to not being played is a willingness to sit at the table with an empty hand and know you still have a right to be at the table. No matter how many times you are shamed and told to give up your seat.
Or just walk away altogether. So one day when the music stops, all the chairs will be empty cuz there's no one in the room. Just a bunch of empty chairs and a low buzz in the air.
Thank you, Pirate Studebaker!! "The key to not being played is a willingness to sit at the table with an empty hand and know you still have a right to be at the table. No matter how many times you are shamed and told to give up your seat." I like that!!!
Rereading this I'm tweaking a bit but significant bits :
The key to not being played is a RESOLVE to sit at the table with an empty hand and know you have a right to be at the table. No matter how many times they TRY to shame you and tell you to give up your seat.
You had me at: The predators “are really good at luring the pets into their little cages with promises of all kinds of rewards that satiate all kinds of appetites. “
Wow to you for being able to put this into words!🙏
Well stated. "The key to not being played.." poignant. I just said something similar to my son. I have worked so hard all of my life and fall further behind with all these man- made crises.
I told my son the other day that there is some freedom in sitting out. I've already lost everything. What the heck was I striving so hard for all these years? We worked so much that the kids remember us being at work most of their childhoods, so they could have things. That's insane. Our one job...
We all had misspent youths whether we think so or not. The people manipulating this mess are very skilled. You saw through them. That is light years ahead of what most can see and you are trying to pass this wisdom on to your son.
There is definitely freedom in sitting out. If you can make peace with the past and lay it to rest, you will be doing what Tessa recommends about the love and peace to be found when the ghosts that haunt each one of us are released.
Though it's healthy to mourn we must also let the dead bury the dead. Including our dead past lives in order to embrace a peace beyond all understanding.
I pray you give yourself a break. I think you're doing great. So there!
It's meant to be scary as a warning to the predators. I fight back though not on their home field. I am also aware and awake and ready to see what they show. And open to learning from what I see. Pirates wore black around their eyes to cut the glare of the sun on the water so they wouldn't be blinded. Much like athletes.
Okay! I appreciate you. I am learning. I am stunned. Pissed. Scared. And very Godly. Here comes another night of battle. They come for us with 5G mapped out radiation warfare at night. Buzzing ears. Who knows? WHO nose.
What's happening is stunning and makes us all pissed and scared and that's their point. I just wrote a stack called Star Struck about this very subject.
Though we have to strive to fly up and beyond their manipulations with wings only God can provide. I myself have no wings. But he flies me up anyway. Thank you, Jesus!
5G is horrible. If it's doing all this to us, fully grown adults, imagine what it's doing to the more tender creatures like children and bunnies and bees and...It's hateful beyond reproach.
But it doesn't do any good to hate the people who are perpetrating. Only the evil they perpetrate because if it were in my power to get rid of those people, others would step into their shoes immediately. And as Jesus said, there is always a chance a person can change. Though I must say, it doesn't seem to me many do change. Though what do I know? Only he knows. So I trust him and listen to him and do my best to understand and obey. I sometimes fail miserably. Then he picks me up and we go again.
The "State" has deformed into the surrogate parent for the modern day sheeple. The "State" extinguishes the SPIRIT of being independent and responsible for ones LIFE. Live sovereignly, or live slovenly.... What happened to the sovereign individual ? (the Soveran).
Tess! You are brilliant. Getting to the root/roots of this chaos is not an easy job. Every sense of my being is telling me that you are ON track. Thank you!
Interesting topic, and timing for me. Earlier today a friend and I started musing about what the world would be like today if the US had not started to meddle in other countries's business. Sadly we will never know, which leaves us musing.
Tessa, You continue to surprise me. This is brilliantly conceived and tightly presented. And likely correct, too. A fascinating premise. Thanks for expanding my horizons today. Will muse about this for a while and what it means...and how we accelerate the trajectory to the end state.
Tessa, nicely stated. There is much truth in what you have said. The game is being played with such precision that the majority of the "sheeple" are content to play. No matter the light, truth and love we dash around, there far too many in the game to end it before it ends us. While we awaken a few here and there, the controllers continue to play their game, changing its rules how and when they need more control or a few laughs. If we don't unite soon, all will be lost. Humanity is balancing on the precipice of destruction. Resist, do not comply. Fight like your life depends on it.
sartre described self-deception as a refusal to acknowledge and act on our freedom. by letting others decide our lives for us we succumb to "mauvaise foi"
If you believe that your money has any intrinsic value, you've been played.
If you believe that bankers are not trying to rule the world, you've been played.
🤔😁 we’ve been played!
At least you can take all that money with you when you die, just ask the pharaohs.
Berry, berry good! Thank you, Tessa.

That wording has more integrity.

I've started a stack to explore this and more. If interested.
When the internet collapses I expect many of us won't return. SM is as divisive as it is connective.
SM, to me, means sadomasochism. I hope it collapses as well.
I think it may mean social media, but that's fairly sadomasochistic, so perhaps you've made one of those connections that drifts in the ether until...
That's a great pun!! And yes, SM is very SM :)
True that!
I have already turned a lot off.

Agreed. Thank you. Yes, more peace today than in many years. Livinsimply!
Blessings over you :)
This is my favorite comment of the day. Will you be my friend?
I'll be your friend even if this comment isn't meant for me. I've started a stack for more exploration if you're interested. God Bless.
It is very much meant for you. But the pirate eyes image is SCARY

One of my favorite old quotes (sorry, I can't recall the author) is if you don't know who you are, someone will tell you.
You are so welcome...glad you enjoyed it!
