October 02, 2006

It didn't hit me until today that our third anniversary was Sunday, October 01. I've spent some time since going through the oldest archives, trying to decide what to show you, and the sad reality is that we're saying the same old things about all the same old problems today as we were then. We don't seem to be making any headway against the tyranny and darkness that surrounds us on this old mud ball.

The only glimmer of hope is the growing number of people who seem to be waking up and smell the burning flesh around them! I'm hearing from more and more people who say they finally understand what we've been saying, and many of them ask what they can do to help. The only answer I can come up with is the same one we've been giving for a very long time:

Live your own life with integrity and honor. Do what you promise to do, and do not interfere with the lives or decisions of others. Practice the non-aggression principle, respecting the lives and property of everyone else without exception. Take personal responsibility for your own lives and family, not asking government to solve your problems or protect you. Learn and practice rational self defense and be prepared to carry it out!

LIVE FREE NOW, and learn how to live more freely each day. Don't wait for utopia to dawn, or for tyranny to end. Your words, thoughts and actions CREATE your reality. It is up to you to create the reality that you want to live in. Nobody else can ever do it for you, no matter how willing or well intentioned they are.

You OWN your body, mind and soul. You are therefore responsible for it and what happens to it. You can't really delegate or give away that responsibility either, no matter how appealing that might be to some. Eventually, it will come home to roost - in this world or the next.

If that prescription for liberty and justice is too much for you right now, I'm sorry. I hope you will continue to read and think about it until you can come to grasp the importance of it - and the fact that nothing else will ever lead you to freedom.
