Comfortably numb
/You are comfortably numb. And it is about to shake you to your roots. It has compromised your survival, it might even kill you, yet slowly, and then all of a sudden.
It has been all around you. They got to you, and you didn’t even know it. It was stealth, just like in the 1940s, you were programed to be comfortably numb. They kept you busy with a full time day job to pay the bills, and a side job to pay for the kids soccer and music lessons. Then they built social media, to make you realize that the Jones’ kids were doing club soccer or taking private tennis lessons, or gymnastics, or whatever, so you signed your kids up too, and that meant several more hours a week, driving, sitting, waiting while the other chores waited. Then there was your pre-dawn runs that had to happen, the yoga or pilates class, the zoomba classes or bootcamps. Then the chores, some of which you farmed out to try and “buy some time” back. Then you and little people needed fed, then guided on homework, stealth checkups on their social media accounts, then your social media update time to make sure you kept up on the local and global world, trends and passions you only dreamt of getting to. Then, when emails are all answered, lunches packed, schedules checked, you collapse into Netflix or a ball game on the mind control device (tel-lie-vision) where the “programming” and distraction and subconscious reminders to participate in the hedonic treadmill of consumerism, the reminders of drugs you should “ask your doctor about” for that nasty butt rash and insomnia and sporadic anxiety. They were programming us all, softly, stealthily cramming into our limbic systems things we didn’t need, or need to worry about.
This is your life.
This is what you wanted, well, the tel-lie-vision’s (TV) vision of a perfect happy family, of a successful life was what you wanted, not this other unwanted dirt under the fingernails. And so they did all these things to us, so we would not have time, time for you, to look inward, They knew you could be bought, suckered, fooled, programmed, and kept so busy moving your mind into “outward” things to just keep up with the world around you, so that you didn’t have time for “inward things”. Because, if you looked inward, daily, for an hour or more, you would have time to question the hedonic treadmill, the insanity of your, and your kid’s schedules, the unhealthiness of it all. Because, if you looked inward, you could connect to God, connect to your soul, discover your spirit, reconnect with your heart, and the things that really matter. You would have time to critically think about your choices and the world you were a numbed participant in. But, there was no time for that, the latest installment of your 5 running mini-series of Netflix shows was launching tonight, the nighttime comedian had their Johnny Carson slot ready with your favorite musician or celebrity to taut their latest agenda, tequila, movie or favorite charity that you should also take note of and of course, don’t forget the tall glass of your favorite poison created by, and touted by, those same criminals to further perpetuate their plan to keep you comfortably numb. It was always their plan, the whole cabal of them, to program you, to enslave you into keeping up with the Jones’, keeping up with the latest iphone model, the newest SUV, the newest fashions.
They made us slaves, and they made us happy to be as such, or at least, that is what they told us. And we bought it, hook line and sinker, meanwhile they stole our children’s minds and also quite literally stole our children for things unimaginable to those who chose the cabal’s potion of lies that kept them comfortably numb. They were brilliant, they captured many pawns for decades, until some caught on and decided to wage war. Eventually, a sliver of the people saw through the fog, detected the agenda, and unplugged their phones, dropped the streaming services, dropped the ordering in of dinners and lunches, took the kids phones away, removed all social media accounts, stopped the numbing nighttime tall glass of “medicine” , started working out more, reading books, sitting on porches watching the sun rise, and sun sets, reset our clocks to rise with the sun and fall into slumber with the sunsets. And little by little, the agenda became clearer, the birds chirped and we heard them, and the crickets cricked. We started to feel our hearts again, noticed the energy swings of the Schumann Resonance, the earth’s heartbeat. We started smelling the sweetness of the morning air, the peace of every sunrise, the yearning of our hearts, the calmness of our breath, because, because, because we realized we had become uncomfortably numb. And it was time to wake up, and stand up, and fight for God, country and family, and what is right. It was time to wage war on the cabal. “We the people” began to rise; and in time these last 4 years will become known as the 2nd Revolutionary war, an Information war.
The time has now come, if you do not feel it yet, a storm is coming and there is little time left to wake up to the real new agenda of peace, quiet, calmness, laughing, love, God and everything that is pure honest and good.
Hello ? are you hearing me? Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me.
There is no pain, you are receding. A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
Are you picking up what I am laying down? If not, you better read this other piece I wrote a year ago. No, seriously, you need to read it. Crumbling, then Rising: The matrix was a documentary.

Lyrics to Pink Floyd’s “comfortably numb”:
Hello . . . .
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home?
Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again
Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb
I have become comfortably numb
O.K.
Just a little pin prick
There'll be no more aaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on, it's time to go
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb
