I believe we need change in this country. I don’t think it’s political or religious change which is needed necessarily, but an actual change in the philosophy of our lives.
Perhaps instead of College degrees our young ones should go in a different direction in the future. I think we need courses or degrees in self reliance, self sufficiency, and how to live off the land? That used to called making a living, or gaining experience.
I believe we need more carpenters, plumbers, electricians, beekeepers, farmers, midwifes, loggers, lumberworkers, animal husbandry experts, surveyers, builders, masons, etc., etc., and fewer people in all aspects of technology. That used to be called being an apprentice.
I believe we are at a crossroads in our country…perhaps in our world. Seven+ billion human beings are a LOT of people for this world to support. Nature tends to notice when things are terribly out of balance and acts to correct the imbalance.
Nature could accomplish this in any manner you could dream up. Whatever way things happen, our world will one day….perhaps sooner than later, be a vastly different place than it is presently.
