“Revolutions are not easy, until they begin rolling, and then it seems in retrospect as if they were always inevitable, the way that big things are. It is that explosion of kinetic energy born out of the potential energy of large numbers of people discovering their strength that fills the air with energy. That ionization is what most people associate with freedom, with the inevitable collapse of an old order and the rise of a new order.”

The Founders said it. WE THE PEOPLE.
They didn’t ask how old you are, where you live, what color or ethnicity you are, what weapons you hold, how much money you have, what religion you practice, (or even IF you practice.)
WE THE PEOPLE. We either fight for the rights that the Laws of Nature and Nature’s G-d gave us, or we die and the nation dies with us. Freedom dies with us. The Constitution dies with us.
There are no more illusions. We SEE who our true enemies are. They are already killing us day by day in ways large and small, rhetorically and literally. When we sleep, they are the stuff of nightmares, and when we are awake, we see that our nightmares have not confined themselves to dreams from which we can awaken.

It’s a daily nightmare, Mesta. I completely agree. It’s that same recurring nightmare you have with the same talking points, the same events, and when you awake, a profound sense of deja vu overcomes you.

If anything, it’s taught me to treasure small things, to take in what you can enjoy. For me, it’s the woody taste of a good cigar or a cup of hot coffee on a winter morning.

It’s the deep bluish-green color of the grass when the last rays of the setting sun bounce orange off storm clouds in the distance.

It’s that brisk winter air that fills your lungs as you look skyward at a glorious morning sky full of stars.

We have to take the time to notice these little things or the “big” things around us will consume our minds in a way that the nightmare of deja vu makes us remember all of the negatives around us every hour of everyday.
