On this morning, this glorious morning, one so crisp and fresh and brimming with life and power that I say to myself, “Mother Earth can care for herself!” I.e., no matter what we do, we are puny in our capacity to ruin her. She has tricks up her sleeve. Many of them. We have no idea what they are or who she really is.

Meanwhile, this morning, watched/listened to two new reports from fantastic young alternative investigative journalists: James Corbett, who “follows the money” down the rabbit hole of 911; and Abby Martin, who lays out, in ghastly detail, Empire’s wreckage of all that is alive in Afghanistan, the Mideast and beyond since 911. Her interview with Ramsey Clark feels especially poignant.

I ask myself. Why do I continue to post this kind of ghastly geopolitical/economic/military “news”? Answer: because most people, in the U.S. especially, are still, STILL! asleep!

Or are they?

Are you?
