Listen now (13 min) | So it’s like all this geo-political strife in the world. Russia vs. Ukraine. Russia vs. Nato. Hey Nato is an alliance formed for collective security. Why doesn’t everybody just join Nato? Why is it somebody vs. somebody all the time? We’re all somebody. Just make the group bigger. Russia and China and North Korea. We could call it All Nations Oh. AllNato. India and Argentina, South Africa and Australia, Chile and Timbuktu, let them all join in.
Pachamama is a goddess revered by the indigenous people of the Andes. In Inca mythology she is an "Earth Mother" type goddess, and a fertility goddess who presides over planting and harvesting, embodies the mountains, and causes earthquakes. https://freewalkingtoursperu.com/en/blog/pachamama-andean-deity/
Nice! I enjoyed the History of the World, I Guess! Super cool. Nobody owns the water and sometimes when I paddle board in areas where people own the land, like the San Juans (Washington), I paddle on the edge of privately owned land for fun and to snoop.
Great music choice! Enjoyed your writing and the links-
Very nice, a non alcoholic cheers to you sir. Here's my thanksgiving rant..
I'd like to give thanks for today, this life and every single one of you.. for the time, energy and love we share. Life is short, let's not take it for granted.
May we learn to appreciate every day, and better yet, every single moment. Focus only on the good and not sweat the bad. Take our losses in stride only to come back stronger. When one door closes a better will open.. Know that growth comes from pain, it's all part of the process. There would be no highs without lows, or good without bad.. it's the balance of the universe.
Let us show compassion and kindness to all, especially the homeless. Know that every single person is dealing with struggles no matter how good things may appear. Smile at strangers and spread joy. Be the change you want to see in the world.
I'd like to give thanks for all our loved ones, human and beast, who have passed on and are now with us only in spirit. Thank you for the time and memories shared. They live on through us, let's make them proud.
As humans, we are all the same. Our fundamental needs and the desire for connection is universal. We truly are all one. One love, one heart..
Yes, the tribalism of "us" vs "them" is so deplorable. Did you ever read "Gravity's Rainbow" by Thomas Pynchon? He totally nails this folly.
the song says ::
"In heaven and on earth
with the sun and the stars
In heaven and on earth
The moon and the stars
I feel the fire inside inside
I feel the fire here I find you
I feel the fire inside inside
I feel the fire here I find you
Pachamama in this fire
Pachamama here I find you
Pachamama in this fire
Pachamama here I find you
fly fly little eagle
fly fly little condor
They fly free for us
They take care, they look, everything, everything
I feel the fire inside inside
I feel the fire here I find you
I feel the fire inside inside
I feel the fire here I find you
Pachamama in this fire
Pachamama here I find you"
