Where do we go from here?

Wow! It is hard to believe in less than a week January will be over! With the new year behind us many are being lulled into their everyday routines, the thought of the New Year and what it might bring fading into the past. As we get closer to the harmonic convergence on Dec 21, 2012 many people will again be focusing on what is to come.  Of course there are individuals as well as groups who have a strong mission to guide us into the this new age.
Many cultures believe we have a window of opportunity to avert complete destruction of civilization, based on the choices we make, especially in the next 11 months.
This will be a series of articles about ways we can make a difference as individuals and groups this next year and beyond.
Since the industrial age began our earth has been polluted in ways our ancestors would never imagined. Our food crops have become more toxic than ever! Monsanto led us to believe their new Genetically Modified Crops(GMO's) were going to solve the worlds food crises. Only to in reality take us further into a food crisis. Our children are now expected to have a shorter life span than we are!
Organic and non-GMO farmers are struggling, as their crops have been cross contaminated by pollen and Monsanto has sued some of them for use of their GMO's without paying for it!! Not only can these farmers now not sell their products as non-GMO, many farmers have cut down or ripped up the entire crops losing everything. Monsanto farms have popped up like bad pennies across the country including in Hawaii, where Organic Mango Farms have cut down their Mango trees because had become contaminated by GMO crops that are being grown behind huge fences with warnings to keep out or face arrest! These farmers are now fighting back.
The European people on a larger scale seem to understand the importance of "clean" food. Organic, pesticide and anti-biotic free foods, that is way many have banned food imports from the US. Yet we import food from other countries which use pesticides that have been banned here due to there proven dangers!
Studies increasingly show each day how dangerous GMO's our to our health and our environment. The new super seeds have become a huge money maker for the same chemical companies who supply drugs for the illnesses their pesticides create! Lets make the population sick and make money on them and then supply the medicine to TRY to make them well and make more money on them! Hum...
93% of all the corn grown in the US is GMO. When you look at the ingredient labels on many foods in the supermarket you will find corn, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup listed. Corn has become the leading ingredient in sweetened or sugared products sold. It is rare to see just sugar any more.
Pepsi recently put our Pepsi Throw Back. Guess what it has sugar! No corn syrup products! Just like it used to be, when sugar was used to sweeten products. Dentine also produces their gum on a small scale with the original ingredients, no corn syrup or artificial sweeteners(a subject for another article).
Here is where we have a choice. Do we continue to buy food that is making us sick, or do we take the time to read the labels, to demand healthy food, to make the choice to skip the inside food isles at the supermarket and just shop the outside isles. Even better go to your local farmers market. Buy local, organic healthy food that supports your community, your heath and the environment.
As individuals we have the power to inspire change. When we make the choice NOT to support the companies that are making us sick, they will have to change! As long as we continue to buy the very food that is killing us and our environment, the chemical companies have no reason to change!
Wishing you good health,

Top Legal Expert: "President Obama ... Says That He Can Kill [Any American Citizen Without Any Charge and] On His Own Discretion. He Can Jail You Indefinitely On His Own Discretion”

Top Legal Expert: "President Obama ... Says That He Can Kill [Any American Citizen Without Any Charge and] On His Own Discretion. He Can Jail You Indefinitely On His Own Discretion”
So many people are asking the question "What will happen in 2012?" Oh course none of us really have the answer, though there is a great deal of prediction and speculation. This is an exciting, yet nerve wracking time. Change is happening rapidly and the old "Rank and File" here in the United States and in other countries as well, are trying desperately to hold onto the old way of business, as Americans and other nations are finally coming out of the LONG winters nap! 

The Occupy Wall Street movement has been instrumental in bringing awareness to the majority. Speaking out about issues facing the American Middle and lower class today. While we have been lulled into believing everything our government does for us is good for the majority, many have lost their jobs, their homes and their faith. While OUR government has helped line the pockets of the BIG Banks and Corporations and in turn their own pockets have gotten fatter!! 
Our government is too big and needs to fail along with the banks who have gotten this country into such a mess. Oh wait our government is failing! Congress can't seem to agree on ANYTHING and President Obama with all his promises has been ineffective. To add insult to an already insulted population, the long time plan to go into Iran on behalf of Israel is heating up, despite the fact that more than 70% of American's don't want to be at war with anyone and wants our troops home.

This is where we have a choice. Our people, our country, our planet are on the brink of collapse. Can we just sit in front of the TV watching American Idol and the Patriots? 

We are waking up. Waking up to the knowing we have been asleep for a long long time. During that time, Chemical and Energy companies have been allowed to poison our food supply, pollute our air and water, clear cut forests and destroy our environment. While the banks along with the IRS have stripped us of our hard earned money and our homes.

Despite all of this, I believe there is still hope. Hope, that there are enough individuals who are awake and more waking up every single day, to make the conscious choice to create change.  We had begun this journey of radical change in the 1960's, only to get too caught up in sex, drugs and rock and roll to follow the movement for positive change to the end. 

Once again we have the opportunity to create radical, positive lasting change. We are coming into an era never before seen by any of us, or even by any of our ancestors. As we move closer to December 21, 2012 we all watch with great anticipation and with possibly some fear.

Many indigenous cultures around the world believe we are at a crossroad and our future is teetering, just waiting, watching. How we chose may very well define our survival or our extinction. 

Will we wage war? Will we make peace? Will we change our habits to save the earth? To save ourselves? Will it all be in vain? 

Will December 21, 2012 be our last day? I like to think not. So than what, if anything will we change? Or will we continue to be led down a path of self destruction? It's all up to you. It's up to us. 

One of the Laws of the Universe is-what you think about expands. What are you thinking? 

I encourage you today to be mindful of your thoughts, deeds and actions. I encourage you to inspire others to take care of the earth, to lend a hand to someone in need. I encourage you to let your government know we are tired and we are not going to take it any more.  I encourage you to be a shining light of hope.

Together we can make a difference.
With Heartfelt Love,
