Re: Lost all hope
You are human. The system that oppresses you is human. This oppression won't last forever, perhaps longer than you or I but not forever. Have a little faith in humanity, that regardless of the oppression we all will get by in the end.

We are still in an age of rulers. These rulers have created a better world for humanity since the dawn of civilization. And I know, its not perfect, but it so much better than it used to be. And 100 years from now, it will be better still until we reach an age where rulers and no longer needed.

For as much as we don't like oppression, we need leadership, even if it is leadership that oppresses. Without it humanity would never have come this far.

This is the first step in an evolutionary journey that uniquely as human beings, we are able to witness and understand. Later on, this period will be recognized, and it will be understood to have been important to the development of the humanity of the future. Without all the bad, without struggling, how could we ever know what the good is? How could we ever know when we have reached what we have been aiming for. We need to grow, and learn. Suffering is part of this.

From the videos, it looks like the guys with the fancy cameras are allowed forward when the crowd is beaten back. Just curious-- why don't protesters ever pretend to be press? Then they'd be able to slip past without being clubbed.

If u guys want the latest doom report, listen to Ann Barnhardt on the Hagman Report. She tells it like it is. Get your money out of the system immediately. This collapse has been engineered and is being carried out. All u can do is get prepared. Protection/security, food etc. The window of time to get that stuff is closing......

Re: Lost all hope
Warning.- This isn't an uplifting post. This is reality as I now see it. It has become more clear to me that they have won and we have lost the war without even fighting the battle. We are all talk and no action. We sit around and bitch about our rights being taken away. We fight and argue over race, religion and politics. We really are brainwahed sheep being controlled in almost every aspect of our lives. It's just going to get worse. I've known for a while now and am reminded daily about how corrupt this world is.

After watching the streaming video of the protest in Spain it really set in with how screwed we are. I watched as hundreds of protesters were ran off by a handful of police. I'm not for violence but I am for standing your ground and standing up for what you believe in. I just can 't figure out how we got here. I don't know what it will take to get things going in a better direction. I don't have the answer. It just saddens me to the core to see where we are and where things are going.

Sorry for the rant and I 'm not trying to offend anyone in Spain.

Re: Lost all hope
You can only lose when you lose hope.

Personally, I haven't.

Even if I thought I was going to lose, I'd keep trying anyway, because it's what's right.

But there's absolutely no guarantee that I'm going to lose so why would I discourage myself by falsely believing it so?

Re: Lost all hope
you don't know how you got here?

make a deeper study of history.

the story reveals a trail through time.
it tells of that which happened as
contrary to what could've happened.

escape the burden of the shadow of
the lies, . .
break the taboos, defy all deities
especially those that demand worship.

escape the confusionism.
trust the heart, it beats in
unison with the greater cosmos

love/joy is blossoming like

Re: Lost all hope
What I feel is we are living in a controlled world where we can live and learn, we can experience duality. What the system does best is control us through hate,fear, the most things you see and hear are things that does not make a lot of people happy. Religions have been the main thing to trigger hate and fear and now we see people waking up from the sytem, or better said, waking up but still in this controlled system.. people who do not really listen or follow their own path, their inner voice/heart will continue to be controlled and destracted. The place where you can find real love and peace is in your heart and I think it is time people will have to be aware of who they really are, take back your power, live by heart, not by a controlled mind! Please know that a lot of people wake up every day and are finding back their true power and act mostely by heart and I am sure this will make a huge difference in this matrix world we live in.

Re: Lost all hope
I have absolutely no hope for this world because the evil is too far advanced. What keeps me going everyday is knowing that our Lord will be here soon and we will be caught up to be with him.

Keep going a little while longer, keep reading your Bible, know that the Lord loves you and he will never forsake you, resign yourself from this world and realize this is not your home....The beautiful part is Jesus has already won the fight for us. Be in good cheer my friend because soon we will be home :)

Re: Lost all hope
Violence isn't the answer, never was, that should be painfully obvious if one takes a look back throughout human history. This 'us' against 'them' mentality has infiltrated every aspect of our lives, that is where the real problem lies. Look at the majority of threads here, they always boil down to the same basic premise. We all seem to think we are more intelligent, work harder, struggle more, just more deserving than the next...The so-called elites have the same mental inefficiencies, we are all just human, well, except for the reptilians, of course...lol


Any way, I believe an awakening of our global conscious, a spiritual enlightening, if you will, is about to transpire relatively soon. -The next big step in evolution, for us meager, violent humans. Even for the non-believers...it's inescapable, thankfully. When this occurs we will regain hope as a people, and peace, will be inevitable. There will be no more need for wars, we will realize we are all one and are all truly here for the same purpose...unless it really is a cookbook, that is damnedlol


Yeah I know, you heard it all before...but I sincerely believe this to be truepeace

Until then, try and stay positivehf

Re: Lost all hope
AN EXPERIMENT for you in your new day:

Much of what you are saying on your thread
here--as I am reading it--OP, can be placed
in the catagory of chemical/physical/spiritual
exhaustion. And, I do share your feelings, OP.
Would you be willing to try something, please?
Just do this for ONE WEEK:
** NO TV--don't even turn it on.
** No tap water--Get some bottled water--don't cook w/ tap water/not even coffee/tea
** Cut down on sugar, ANYTHING with wheat or processed
flour.
** No newspapers...magazines, etc.
** NO alcohol/drugs.
** Avoid loud or vexing people. Take a "time-
out" from any current family/business crisis.
Just refuse--for one week.
** Pick some type of meditation--keep a daily
log of your thoughts/visuals that come through.
** Help ONE PERSON in need each of those 7 days
w/no reward. If offered compensation, refuse to
take it. This repays karmic debt.
** NO RAP, loud music or violent video games.
** Oatmeal for breakfast w/no noise.
** At least one 20-minute QUIET walk--preferably alone.
IF AFTER ONE WEEK, YOU STILL FEEL DEEPLY HOPELESS..
** Choose a room in your house, or in a friend's house
if you are homeless and remove everything==furnishings
rugs--curtains--strip it to the base.
PAINT IT WHITE. (This can take a day or two!)
This experiment was performed successfully by
several friends who were depressed/facing divorce
and loss....even seeing a shrink who suggested they
seek hospitalization. They recovered w/o medication.
Cheers! Be well, expect something wonderful!

Yes, you're correct!

Like when the Founding Fathers broke free of Britain and created the first modern Republic using their compelling sit-down protests.

Or when Oliver Cromwell became the first person to challenge the divine right of kings with an intensive letter-writing campaign.

Or when those catchy slogans shouted by onlookers shamed Hitler into surrendering his efforts to control the world, and his genocide attempts.

Violence is never the answer, just as history shows...

Hi op, I do indeed understand how you feel. I turn 64 in a few weeks and I see a very big shift in direction in present times. I have experienced some really hard times in my own life raising 6 kids with very little money. I have had my electricty cut off several times, my car and tv re-possesed. I remember my wife and I trying to cook the family dinner on a grate in the livingroom as we had no electricty to power the cooker. But I have always tried to put a positive spin on things. I used to sit with the kids and play the guitar and we would make up songs. Despite all the adversary,we came through it stronger and more unified as a family. The journey through life is not an easy one but its a learning experience and it is vital to remain positive. I know how bad things are but the darkest hour is just before the dawn. I survived and now I have a loving family who mean the world to me.I have chronic spinal arthritis and two arthritic hips but do you know I walk five miles every day in spite of the pain. So no matter how bad things seem do not despair there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. I wish you well my friend and hope you remain positive.
