I usually have about 50-80 hits per day on my site. Nothing to brag about. However, for some reason, 250+ people came to my site on Monday to find out more about the murals at the Denver International Airport. Where did these people come from? How did they find out about my blog? What made them all wonder about the airport murals that day? (The murals were first ‘exposed’ several years ago.)
I say all that as a lead in to what I intended to write today.
I had a glimpse, a few hours ago, of something I had not considered. Those of us (just ordinary people) who are ‘awake’ to what is going on (the United States shadow government, Bilderbergers, CFR, Bible Prophecy, etc.) have been frustrated at how many people are ‘sleeping’ (unaware). We have practically been screaming to people to wake up–to family (who won’t listen), to friends (who won’t listen), and finally, to the whole nameless faceless world out there via the internet. I think we have been so intent on getting people to wake up, that we have not stopped to consider what will happen when they do.
Most of us who post to the internet are aware that things stay in cyberspace ‘forever’–at least the way things are set up now they do. That, at least, has been a comfort. We know we have done our part and said our piece. Someday, someone will take heed. It may be today, next month, next year . . . or twenty years from now. The airport mural story illustrates that. It was written over a year ago.
What I glimpsed today was the face of a young person who has awakened to what is going on. This was a real person, a young man who had posted a video on YouTube. As I watched his video I noticed, and remembered, a lot of things.
- Most people are really angry when they wake up to the situation
- Young people tend to be more brash and reckless
- Young people tend to have less impulse control
- Young people tend to be more violent and have shorter tempers
Young people are the generation(s) that are going to reap the fruit of what is now being sown–in other words, they are going to have a lot more to be angry about. As conditions worsen, they are going to be looking for answers . . . and for someone to blame. As they start asking questions, they are going to find the same answers we did . . . and they are going to find the things we are writing, trying to wake you (their parents and grandparents). However, I believe that their anger is going to be magnitudes greater than yours/ours.
I suspect that they are going to continue to ignore what we are writing, until the economy gets worse. But, eventually they are going to wake up to the fact that there is no ‘American Dream’ possible for them, that this is not just an ‘economic downturn’, and that the situation is not going to improve. They are going to be angry. Then they will begin to look for someone to blame.
They will be just as angry as we are at the international bankers and corrupt government officials. But here’s something to consider: when they see how long we/you have known . . . how long the warning message has been going out . . . and how we/you preferred not to deal with it–especially while something COULD have been done, without bloodshed . . . they are going to discover how they have been betrayed, by the generations that went before them.
When they are homeless, and going without meals, and they realize that we (their parents and grandparents) knew about this but did nothing–that we didn’t want to rearrange our lives and endure a little hardship now so they would not endure a living hell later . . . how do you think they are going to feel towards you? Do you suppose there will be one bit of respect, loyalty or compassion left in their hearts for you?
(For those of you who say you are Christians–do you think there will ever again be one iota of respect in their hearts for your God, or for Christianity?)
It may stink to consider making sacrifices in your life–but it has become the American way of life to borrow from the future. We don’t deny ourselves anything, even though we know there will be a price to pay ‘someday’.
Here’s a news flash: ‘Someday’ is your children and grandchildren!!
What we do, and don’t pay for, today is going to be a burden on the backs of our children and grandchildren. You may be able to put the thought out of your mind and go ahead and indulge yourself, but I guarantee that every halting step they take, under all those heavy burdens, they will think of us. (For those of you who worry about euthanasia in your old age–your subconscious is trying to get a message to you now: ‘you will reap what you sow!!’)
But I’m not just talking about how we spend our money–I’m talking about how we deal with, or better stated, how we don’t deal with problems. The things we don’t deal with today are going to have to be dealt with ‘someday’. Yes, there it is again: ‘Someday’ is your children and grandchildren!!
It is time for our generation(s) to grow up and be adults! It is time to start thinking about those who are following behind us. As long as we continue to each ‘look out for number one’, as long as we continue to look the other way and not deal with the problems our nation is facing, the more responsibility we are putting on our children and grandchildren’s generations to clean it all up!
Here’s another news flash: While our backs are turned, the plans of evil people come to fruition.
As long as we continue to focus only on ourselves, evil people are spinning webs to ensnare our children and grandchildren. There is still time to confront what is going on. There is still opportunity for a bloodless revolution, but the window of opportunity is closing.
Let me paint a picture for you–if we fail to deal with the evil and corruption that are entrenched in our government and economy, and if we fail to do it soon, things are going to radically change for the worse. That’s fine if you want to live under that kind of a system–but if we don’t do anything, we are imposing that system upon future generations-who probably don’t want it!
Truth be told, we don’t want it either–we are just being too lazy and self-absorbed to do anything to prevent it. We are hanging onto our comfort today, and the HOPE that it won’t turn out that way. But we are wrong on both counts. Because of our not dealing with it, things will not be comfortable for our children and grandchildren–and they will not have the luxure of hope, like we still do.
Contrary to what some comfortable people might think–losing one’s home does not drive most people to desperation. Losing one’s car does not drive most people to desperation. Even losing one’s reputation and credibility doesn’t drive most people to desperation. What DOES drive people to desperation is losing HOPE!
Weigh that against the sacrifices you could potentially make to help turn things around.
children/grandchildren: NO HOPE vs. you: loss of credibility for speaking up
children/grandchildren: NO HOPE vs. you: reputation affected by protesting injustice or corruption
children/grandchildren: NO HOPE vs. you: giving up something to make a difference
children/grandchildren: NO HOPE vs. you: giving up the comfort of living in denial
What all of this is leading up to is what I saw:
If WE, this generation of parents and grandparents, do not do what we can . . . someday our children and grandchildren, desperate and without hope, will rise up to fight.
If WE do not initiate a bloodless revolution, while ‘cooler heads prevail’ . . . someday our children and grandchildren will give their lives to win back their freedom.
If WE do not surrender some of our comfort now and do what we can . . . someday the blood of our children and grandchildren will flow in the streets.
If WE do not do what we can now, we will have betrayed our children and grandchildren, and become complicit in the crimes against their generations . . . and their blood will be upon OUR hands.
If we do not do something now, while the opportunity still exists, they will take matters into their own hands. When they wake up to what is going on, they are going to angrily (and I fear, violently) take matters into their own hands. They could awaken any day. How long does it take for something to ‘go viral’ on the internet?
I find my position, in some ways, reversed. I now pray God keeps the younger generation asleep and unaware–and I pray that our generation wakes up and does something soon!
Please–for the love of your children, for the love of your grandchildren–please do what you can! Speak up–spread the word–wake your friends and family. (You may lose credibility for awhile, but when the truth comes out you will be vindicated. ) Resist lawfully and nonviolently. But for goodness sake–start fighting back!
The only way to keep our children from starting an angry violent revolution tomorrow, is that we deal with the mess ourselves today.
