I have read some very interesting, thought provoking threads here but none of them carried the quality that this one did.

We have been given some amazing ideas that to me are new to ponder upon.

In my own existence I have kept out of the system for as long as I could.
My kids were never vaccinated and have never received allopathic medicine.
There were unschooled until they were 15 years of age.
My eldest who is 19 elected to never go to school.
He is interested in building and planting, brilliant mind that has never been conditioned.

We live in South Africa.
And of all the places I have traveled to in the world - the quality of light here, for me, is the most transforming.
The most illuminating.

Earlier on another poster World Watcher said that the best advise we can be given is to go within and find the peace.
I so second that.

Some friends and I were sitting in the garden, under the shade of the pecans, drinking tea, no longer slaves to the system and we were remarking how despite having so little money and stuff we were so very wealthy.

Thank you for this post and to those other posters who have really added to it.
