Strangers Are Just Friends You Haven't Met Yet

In the video below, photographer Richard Renaldi proves that strangers are only friends you haven't met yet.

Regarding that, at one point in my life I realized that I'd never met an individual I didn't like. That is, what I noticed is that when you take a person out of their normal environment, the one where we're all actors on a stage, and converse with them one on one about subjects they enjoy, subjects that light up their heart, or about subjects that touch them deeply, especially if they are emotionally distraught, each and every individual is wonderful. No exceptions. It doesn't matter what the individual has done or not done, what religion they are, what color they are, what age they are, or what their beliefs are. Fundamentally we are all the same. Renaldi seems to have found the same to be true, that fundamentally we are all the same, with the same basic wants and desires - to feel good and enjoy life together.

Notice in the video that Renaldi doesn't just get strangers to stand together, he has them touch each other in some way. Touch is so important! It really does break down barriers. But I noticed something else in my dealings with people - we can touch people with our eyes. And that by doing so often we can break through enough barriers that even full on strangers will allow themselves to be touched physically. Even just a loving light touch on an arm does wonders. Try it!

The Hopi Prophecy

A beautiful reminder from Brian Kelly. All signs are that we are well on the way to creating this as a new paradigm for Earth. We are powerful creators, let's make it so!

The Hopi Prophecy
October 22, 2013

This is the prophecy that Bob read aloud on the Collective Imagination show tonight. POWERFUL. BEAUTIFUL. REAL. EMBRACE IT. LIVE IT. BE IT BREATHE IT. THE TIME IS NOW. ~BK

Navajo / Hopi Prophecy of the Whirling Rainbow

There will come a day when people of all races, colors, and creeds will put aside their differences. They will come together in love, joining hands in unification, to heal the Earth and all Her children. They will move over the Earth like a great Whirling Rainbow, bringing peace, understanding and healing everywhere they go. Many creatures thought to be extinct or mythical will resurface at this time; the great trees that perished will return almost overnight. All living things will flourish, drawing sustenance from the breast of our Mother, the Earth.

The great spiritual Teachers who walked the Earth and taught the basics of the truths of the Whirling Rainbow Prophecy will return and walk amongst us once more, sharing their power and understanding with all. We will learn how to see and hear in a sacred manner. Men and women will be equals in the way Creator intended them to be; all children will be safe anywhere they want to go. Elders will be respected and valued for their contributions to life. Their wisdom will be sought out. The whole Human race will be called The People and there will be no more war, sickness or hunger forever.

Our Current Financial System - What's Really Going On?

Never in human history have so many been plundered by so few, and it's all accomplished through this... The Biggest Scam In The History Of Mankind.
The scam is our current global financial system. Below is a documentary video by Mike Maloney that helps explain the process. I've seen a number of presentations of this material, and I think Mike does a bang-up job of presenting it clearly.

Before I present the video, I want to make it clear that while I fully appreciate Mike and his crew for both taking on this difficult subject and their clear explanations of the basic premise of our current global financial system - fraudulent as it is - I disagree with their ultimate conclusion (which is not presented in this particular video), that we instead need a system backed by gold and silver.

Perhaps this comment from poster Clumper_Archives on the Hidden Secrets of Money, Episode 4 page, says it best:
Some highly credible references [in support of the assertions in the video] are: Edw Griffin (Creature From Jekyll Island), Bill Still (Secret of Oz & Jekyll Island)

One point to ALWAYS keep in mind: If we go back strictly to a gold standard, the old standard quote comes to mind, "He who has the gold, makes the rules..."

We have to come up with something better or the Elite will continue unfettered with their devious globalist plans.

This is my biggest complaint about this clip.
I agree. But even if some "Elite" don't continue to control (it is my belief that they cannot and eventually will not), it's an absolute fact that money separates, no matter whose hands it is in. As long as we have money we will be divided, there will be lack for some and abundance for others, there will still be haves and have nots. It's impossible for it to be otherwise. As we move out of Separation Consciousness and toward Unity Consciousness, monetary systems of any sort will not be needed.

No matter how much we want to believe that any "thing" - including gold and silver - hold ultimate value, they do not. I can't eat gold, it can't house me, it can't protect me from the elements, it can't keep me safe, it can't give me love, it can't experience and share the joy of life with me as people can and do. Aside from it's limited value when turned into adornments, gold is of no value to me at all. In other words, gold, silver, or any precious metals only have what value we each - as individuals - give to them.

Precious metals can be used in exchange for things that provide for my needs and wants, but since they separate, why not go directly to an exchange model that accepts the value in each and every human being? When we are all doing what brings us the greatest joy, without needing compensation of any sort because our needs are already met, it can be a wonderful experience. One that I personally am looking forward to experiencing on a global scale.

The way I see it, the thing of highest value is each and every human being (actually, any and every Being, but that's a whole 'nother topic :)). Not because of what an individual does, but because they are. So for me, BEings DOing, in whatever capacity is their greatest joy, is where the true value lies.

And if that weren't enough reason to abandon any sort of monetary system, consider that Gaia, our Earth, is a sentient being, no different in many ways than any of us. Her body, while not human, is the Earth itself - she houses all of us. Who are we, as beings, to take what she offers and horde it for ourselves? Can you imagine the organisms on your body fighting over their little territories on your skin? It's ludicrous when you think about it.

All that said, I realize that the concept of no monetary system at all is a hard row to hoe for many, if not most, people today. So I could see a temporary move from fiat currency to precious metals backed currency as an interim step. That said, I would love to see us zoom right past such a step!

Here's Mike:
