Very well thought out and written piece. Though I wonder dear Tessa, if we would have handled this "pandemic" the way they have been handled (for the most part) in the past (shield the vulnerable and let the healthy keep on living) would we have even known about it? How many people without any symptoms of anything rushed out to get tested for something to find out if they had to go home and be terrified of death for 14 days? How many people literally worried themselves sick? (My grandmother lived till she was 102 without any shots or pills and she swore that general illness was caused by thinking about illness too much). How many people went rushing to the doctor with a cough or a sniffle that would have normally *never* gone and would have just stayed home and ate some broth and drank water? (and, of course were immediately diagnosed with "covid") I am not discounting your own illness or experience at all. Many people I know, including myself had the so-called "virus" (including my elderly mother) and, thankfully, we ALL lived. I know of no one personally who died of the "virus". None. I know of a friend of a friend who was overweight and smoked like a chimney who died "with" "covid". I do know 6 people personally who's lives are never going to be the same after the shots. If I was to take issue with anything you wrote it would be "The pandemic is undoubtedly hurting us terribly". And maybe I'm taking it out of context, but from everything I've studied and experienced personally and seen over the last almost two years, it's not the "pandemic" we suffered from. The suffering society has experienced wasn't (in my opinion) from a "virus" of the microscopic type, but an real live in your face virus of maniacal tyrants in government and big corporations who used the another "virus" (fear) to push through part of an agenda. An agenda that we haven't seen play out completely.... yet. Thanks for such an intriguing and thought provoking piece. :)

But there’s also a positive side: so many of us have awakened during 2020, I know I have, it wasn’t fun going through anger and sadness, but now I’m changed and maybe I have shaken some of my friends out of their hypnotised submissive lives.

I don't think you're crazy either. I have now read a number of your posts and I find you quite sane and caring. I also see that you have survived these two years intact and that is another sign of your fundamental sanity and strength. Thank you Tessa for being you!

You wrote -- "We’ve given up our senses and our ancient instincts . . . . We are shackled to a broken algorithm." Amen.

Gates is just a front-facing business nerd who vaingloriously sees himself as a Master of the Universe just because he purchased multiple NWO franchises for himself. Investigate the actual masterminds. They're the same demographic heading up the transhumanist efforts and who disproportionately own, control, or influence surveillance technology.

I have no words but to say thank you for sharing your view and making me feel less lonely. This is, by far, the best long summary of how I feel regarding the last two years, and the trajectory we are taking for training the AI beast.

“The physical world is only one we have. Technology managed by people whose hearts are a mess, is not going to save us. We already have more technology than what our bodies can handle. It is eating up our brain space and our planet.” It was hard to pick just one quote from that piece to highlight but this one hits the hardest for me. Well done.

You dear woman, echo my entire last 5 years and especially since I left my nursing career behind after 40 years of dedicating myself as the "Ultimate" caretaker!! I have been sitting in the waiting room documenting the Sci Fi, psycho drama, emergency Psych scenario I was embroiled in at San Francisco General Hospital after San Francisco Public Health bought by Zuckerberg and Kaiser. I had to fight myself there in the midst of the mice, the violence, the Dreamers who did nothing but dream and let their patients die, the data collection madness that prevented me from my job as a nurse and healer. I could not give the jab or allow it to be given to me as I could not verify its contents and keep my oath to do no harm. Up to that point I had an amazing nursing career without any real writeups or discipline from Admin. I resigned and came home to lick my wounds and became a "recovering Caretaker!" I am proud of what I did and would never have been able to kill or hurt anyone or deal with it if I had. I have read your beautiful words and I am glad you are connecting me to your lovely and Divine spirit as it has been a lonely, hard and amazing journey for the last 5 years!

I really love your texts, Tessa. So well done. Somehow I skipped over the prelude, where you write the piece is 3 years old, and as I read, I thought, wow, this is dated! I have to read more carefully.

In any case, your last couple lines for me have another story. The title too, made me think of an old song by Randy Stonehill: "Stop the World, I want to get off" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYzmcCwRU7M

Hope you enjoy it :-) . Our Savior is alive and loves us deeply.

Love changes the world.

Still awesome. I'm speechless...and that says a lot coming from a former speech- language pathologist of 30 years! We teach that which we need to learn, I suppose!

I listen (for the first time) to your post on Apr 30, 2020 ‘The Physical World Is The Only World We Have’

Great work your music and the story telling! You should offer it more often.

Wow. The recorded vocal piece brought tears to my eyes. Powerful. Your accent works to your advantage. The shamanic background music was perfect. I'm going to link that in my next post - https://secularheretic.substack.com/
