HI, Sorry for the lateness. Tomorrow, Tuesday, we will have Open Conversation. Here is a quote from a book by Charles Eisenstein, “Sacred Economics” that we can ruminate about and discuss: “In times of social turmoil, I can’t imagine anything more dangerous than possessing a few hundred ounces of gold. Really the only security is to be found in community: the gratitude, connections, and support of the people around you.” “In the meantime, before the collapse of the current system, anything we do to protect some natural or social resource from conversion into money will both hasten the collapse and mitigate this severity. Any forest you save from development, any road you stop, any cooperative playgroup you establish; anyone you teach to heal themselves, or to build their own house, cook their own food, or make their own clothes; any wealth you crate or add to the public domain; anything you render off-limits to the world devouring Machine will help shorten the Machine’s life span. And when the money system collapses, if you already do not spend on money for some portion of life’s necessities and pleasures, then the collapse of money will pose much less of a harsh transition for you.” Hope to see you.
