Be The Light For Others & We are Beings of Light
legacy is short lived. meaning, it will only exist as long as your kids and grandkids are alive. after that, if your name ever comes up, it will be a footnote. so make the best of what you can now, live the best life and have no regrets. remember, within 3 generations, folks won't even recall your name.
So true. Young people aren't being taught to take care of themselves. Everything has become too dependent on the system and people won't know what to do when the system isn't there anymore.
Don't text & drive?
Knowing how to process an animal. They always say the Indians knew how to utilize the entire animal. Yet, why is that skill, I dare say, is next to gone entirely for 99 out of 100 people. Food is the thing you buy at the store. A house is a thing you get a $350k loan at the bank for. Nature is the small local park with a bench and a swingset.
Good advice!
❤100%
I hope that the truth of this place becomes absolutely incredibly uncomfortably obvious to all who lives here very soon. To the point where no one can act self righteous and those who love the lie can no longer hide. A true reckoning.
Thanks for your insight and being conscientious about imparting the best of your to your children.
I love to entertain ideas on the next phase but even if you come from a place of accepting that we simply don't know the answers, it makes perfect sense that don't good makes us feel good and that's all the compass direction we ultimately need to navigate life. Obviously more nuanced but it really is that simple to me.
In a discussion group a couple years ago, we were opposed with the question of what we wanted our legacy to be. And it was aimed at motherhood, but I think it's important for everyone to consider what they want their legacy to be, because we DO get to choose it!
The frog is in the boiling water and it is becoming aware
It sure does!
Good energy!
I too have felt stuck for the last few years of my life. I'm not where I want to be at all and feel I have so much more potential in life but it's all being wasted. I'm very hard on myself about it and it can get overwhelming if I focus on it long enough. Just stating out loud the things that are good and that I am thankful for does help me, just like you are doing. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for expressing yourself here. I am finding it difficult to get much traction on RUclips. I've added a lot of videos and it seems like I'm losing subs as a result.
Never alone! 🙏
Can't beat the message
Great stuff!
Very well thought, and said!
That's quite some time to stick around. Thanks for watching. I lost contact with Gary, my gut tells me he's passed on, he was pretty sick even back then....17 years ago. Again thanks for watching!
Hey man! Been around since the Hermit and Greybeard days lol. Good vid keep it up man! Do you know any info on Greybeard nowadays?
Spiritual warfare is real!
Banger 👍
I’ve really been enjoying your videos. Thanks for these. Much love
Thank you for your feedback, much appreciated 👍
Guilty of pretending 😀
We all smile when we feel obligated, no doubt.
With the advent of smart phones and the ability to snap pictures at a moment's notice, not to mention social media and people's obsession with being noticed...we're bound to produce a lot of fake smiles.
I always thought smiling for the camera was fake too. People go around all day with frowns on their faces so why should people smile for pictures? It's so unnatural.
😁
Having the support of loved ones motivates me to keep on making videos. I don't aim for the approval of others either, people can have their opinion of me, I'm happy with who I am. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Amen to that. Life can be so difficult that its hard to find a single reason to exist. One thing I have learned is that you can't count on people's approval or encouragement to get you through. It's just not going to happen. I am constantly trying to care less about the approval of others and just do what I know is right. It's a monumental task that no one has totally mastered but it's the key to contentment. Thanks for your thoughts and thanks again for making these videos.
Without a doubt, the most important thing we can do for ourselves
A great thought, but maybe less useful to the very society that will continue to prove to be the greatest traitor to those who trust in it, and more usefulness to your clan. If we all returned back to our clans, their would be no need for a mass society.
Great message! Couldn't agree more👍
Going to be a bountiful harvest when everything is yielding! Looks great 👍
I have plans to add more garden space on the North end of my property now.....in the works....planning.
I'm appreciating this series. I think a lot of people, I can be guilty of this too, don't consider what the words we speak really mean. Or often don't think through what we are saying, so we have a whole society of people spewing meaningless words constantly.
Your comment is well timed, tomorrow I am releasing a video on communication.
Stay strong and hold on tight until the tide rises again.
Love it!
I ended up in the water for about 15 minutes. Flippers really make swimming easy.
The club of people that aren't appreciated by others is a big one. I admire people that have the ability to forgive. It's not a weakness but a strength. The desecration of that beautiful land is sad and hardly forgivable for me 😢
Ya it's hard to understand why anyone would think the desert is a dumping ground, even if the land is theirs.
Great job! Sunlight is critical for all life, they will definitely benefit from that expansion,.
Yep these birds will love both the sun and more room. And I am happy to have it completed with a proper door.
Garden looks amazing!
Thanks for the feedback, wait til mid summer when the real action is going on.
I need to get better at this, myself, but hammer and nails have held things together for a long time. Learning to make adhesives is on my list. DIY wood glues on the stove top. The old ones made pine tar, or pine pitch. Binds materials, reinforced with cordage. Pine tar works as a durable wood finish as well.
I watched this the other night but it was late. Coop build is looking good!
I should have known better, those pieces were thin, at first I used a screw and that split then even nails split the wood....argggh.
Looking good! Do you have many predators in the area? Besides neighbor dogs
Fortunately not, but there are lots of cats.
Looking good!
Hope I have enough material to adequately fence it all in.
If I were a chicken, I would put so much extra effort into laying eggs in return for the privilege of living in this run.
If you were a chicken you'd be welcome among my flock and I would feed you spinach every morning from my garden. 😅
I am so eager to see the Jerusalem artichoke harvested. I recently discover that i really enjoy artichoke, but don't really know what it looks like when it's growing
This is a different vegetable, thus one grows underground like a potato. I have never eaten it but I've been told it can be mashed or eaten raw....I am looking forward to it too. Old survival crop that can be harvested all year and even left in the ground over winter!
Great message and great inspiration that we will likely face very desperate times but will also see an end to that desperation when our purpose here is finally revealed and we are reunited with our creator. Thank you for sharing such a personal revelation.
More than anything I know that we have the greatest ally on our side and He's not going to let us down.
I first found you on youtube through your video "The Hermit" which I still watch and consider a classic. Recently I have enjoyed your new videos seeing you living out what you believe and I share many of your goals to be independent and self sufficient. I hope that you continue to make videos. You are an inspiration.
Thank you Tod, I really appreciate your thoughts and kind words. I will continue to make youtube videos, I have lots to share. Take care!
That's great to see so much recovered!
Yes, this season is more learning and adding to the experience.
I've always known potatoes were considered to be hearty, but I am impressed with how well they have recovered. Less of the dog's fault, damn the owner.
Ya I'm happy to see the turn around and recovery too. Unfortunately there are several dogs that come through my yard. I really need to manage my growing space better.
Cane sugar comes brown and refined to turn white. I have purposely not incorporated any heating source other than the sun because I'm rehearsing for a future without power. Now there is a way to use water drums or barrels in the hoop house, during the day they warm up, at night they will give off warmth...will be trying that eventually. Thanks for engaging with me here.
Store bought "brown sugar" use usually just dyed, from my understanding. I wish I had a raw cane sugar source for my coffee. Do you think the hoop house plastic would insulate enough for a small little "milkhouse" heater to be effective on the cold nights?
