Whew, a few down moments.
Last night I got a chance to go see a great show. Hell yes, Beck puts on a great one. Especially that it was free for us. Two turn tables and a microphone, oh, and the most instruments I have ever seen on one stage or in one room ever.
Before the show I was a little down. I was struck by the recent events in London and the thoughts that struck me initially - the thoughts that haunt me now. As outlined below, militarily, politically and financially I have had some of my worst fears somewhat held up by the available evidence. But we probably will never really know the truth right? Maybe in thirty years some historians will have it figured out, but now…
We need to come to grips with what is right to ourselves and what is right for our families. As the world is getting smaller and smaller and companies are merging into evermore powerful and large entities are we not at a turning point? It is our hands to decide right? Because what we hold up to be good and right in our world (democracy, minority rights, free pursuit of happiness) means nothing to these entities that may very soon, if they do not all ready, rule our world.
Who is to rule as we move forward though? Fear and profit centers or something else? What is right for you? What is right for your family?
