There's something to be said for Kitchen Table Wisdom - you know, like in the old days when people sat around the kitchen table after a meal and talked about life, the universe and the meaning of it all - as well as the gossip doing the rounds in town...

Well, that's what this place is - a place to share common wisdom, thoughts and feelings about things important and unimportant, that bring us joy, laughter and happiness and that trouble, sadden, confuse and anger us ...

What I write here is what's 'real' for me. It won't always be PC or 'nice'. We're missing out on true connection and chances to grow and change because there's too little authenticity, too little honesty, too much holding back what we really feel and mean.

Welcome to my world...

I used to have a copyright claim here, but I've removed it...

Ideas don't belong to anyone -

they come to those who are receptive and are to be used for the well being of all...

I find images and movies and music all over the web

and I use them to accent/expand on my thoughts and understandings...

Critical Thinking 101...


...TO GET TO THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER:
 
the only question you ever have to ask, is who benefits from pushing a particular agenda, point of view, policy, action?

the only thing you ever have to observe is someone's actions - do they match their words?

and the final test is to see who people hang out/associate with...

in other words - follow the money, connect the dots....

when you figure that out, all the rest falls into place...

and there are always those who are not transparent about their real intentions/motivations/agendas and they get really pissy when they're caught out...

  1. AND... if you really want to get sophisticated with this critical thinking stuff, then you bear in mind history AND you look for patterns:
    where and why did this happen before?
    where and why is it happening now?
    who were/are the players?
    what was/is the goal?
    what was/will be the outcome?...

    Once you recognise and understand the pattern, the whole domino pattern just reveals itself, as clear as the nose on your face...

    and when you start to talk about what you see/know to other people, they'll say you're paranoid and a conspiracy theorist - that you're crazy...

    Don't let them get to you...
