 Quoting: Lady Ivory


Me too! I have encountered several "like minded" people in the last 2 months. I finally don't feel like I am alone locally.
On a side note....

Today at work we were told by our bosses boss, that we were no longer allowed to park on the public street, that we had to all park in the parking garage. Well, I about had a panic attack right there. The reason being that I want to be able to get to my car if tshtf and the New Madrid cuts loose. I want to be able to get to my kids. It's packed and ready just in case. Only a handful of people know why I won't. And I think out of that handful, only two really trust in my concerns.
I stayed after the meeting to talk to my boss about my concerns. I said " I know you may not understand, or think I'm just crazy, but I am not parking my car in the garage. I can't. (at this point I was visibly shaking)
I told him why, and he said " ok, I can tell that you are very serious, and I will let security know that you will be parking in the utility parking area". I said " I'm sorry, but you know how I "pay attention" to things. I take it very seriously.
There are soooooo many people still sleeping. WAKE UP
I say what I mean. I mean what I say. It is amazing the people who hate me for that.

Re: SOMETHING STRANGE HAPPENED TONIGHT...Thought Id share..
I went to the grocery store tonight...and upon leaving..I stepped out of the cool, air conditioned store into what felt like a steam bath.

I uttered.."Good lord, its like walking into a sauna"..I tend to talk to myself, alot..lol..

And older , bearded gentleman, sort of a Grizzly Adams type, was walking across the parking lot, and apparently heard me, stopped and asked me where I was from.

"Oh, Im from here in Missouri". I told him

"Ahhh," he says.." I just got back from Wisconsin and Im wondering why I came back, now. I think I'm done with this part of the country, I want to go back! It's hard to breathe!"

"Not used to the humidity, yet? " I asked him, knowing full well no one gets "used" to it.

"No.." he says"..but I came back here for the caves."..

Wow, this kind of shocked me..I mean..you start talking to a stranger and that's usually not the first thing you'd hear out of their mouths.

"Oh.." I say.."Well...I have mine picked out..dont you take mine!" I said, jokingly.

"I had one years ago..but Im so old now, I dont think I can find it." Then he continued on.." We'll see how those muslims do when they come over here and get ticks in their ass.." He said..laughingly. I wasnt sure what that had to do with finding caves..but I think I got the gist of what he meant.

We talked a minute more and upon turning to leave..he says to me..
"You have your head in the right place..keep going."

This has to be the strangest conversation Ive ever had with a complete stranger. I mean..how often is it you meet an old "survivalist" At 10:00 PM in a Kroger's parking lot? Divine intervention, or just a kooky coincidence..I dont know. But it made me think, there are many other's walking around out there..that have the same thoughts. Life is taking a turn, and it's time to start thinking seriously.

The ones that are prepared..and have the mindset to survive..will.

The ones in their high dollar houses..wearing 500 dollar Italian made shoes and driving a BMW..well..all the money in the world wont keep you alive.

I just wanted to share this with you..as the past week has really been eye opening for me. I can "feel" a change in the air..but I think it can be a good change. Doom for some, means freedom for another.

Thanks for letting me rant ;)

Cheers.

hugs

I believe that God is (now) quite often sending us signs and little "coincidences" just to keep us focused on what's coming.

Unfortunately I also believe that a lot of times we get one of those reinforcements right before a trial. Hopefully this isn't one of those cases.

I'm glad you came away from it feeling empowered and refreshed. It's a great feeling, isn't it?

Reminds me of an Art Bell show years ago where they talked about this character... I wish I could remember who was the guest. Usually an old man or woman, that gives seemingly uncannily well-timed advice or knows more about you than they should and then just vanishes. I bet if you had tried to find him in the store or parking lot right after the encounter you wouldn't have been able to.

Gives me the chills though.. as we most be getting close!

Re: SOMETHING STRANGE HAPPENED TONIGHT...Thought Id share..
i love meeting people that are in the "know"

there is something about them.. and you can just connect and know they know whats up..

then youll be talking.. and someone else will come along, and both of you just instantly know that this new person is a sheep and has no idea, and is honestly not worth bringing into the deep conversation, because they wont get it..


Ive come to conclude that theres alot of people who have woken up.. and the ones that havent by now.. most likely never will..

I know what you mean..its such a satisfying feeling..so "soul-fullfilling"...

And I have to say..i dont think people have much time to wake up...things are happening at an unprecedented rate now..we are entering the time when we'll (our whole universe) will go through the equator of the solar plane..people better wake up soon..or..well too late.

I talk to strangers everyday. It's how I make a living.

I assure you, many people are very suspect of what is going on.

Don't get me wrong, I met a lot of clueless people but I am in awe of how many people are coming out of the closet, so to speak, regarding what is going on in the world.

I usually plant seeds. I'm a seed planter and I like to shoot the shit with people. My meetings always last for hours and if I'm given an inch, I will take a mile. So maybe I just give off the vibe that its ok to open up to me and they do. I dunno, but something different is certainly going on.

I couldn't even imagine having these conversations with everyday mom and pop types a few years ago. Now it's happening all the time.

I even had an 83 year old lady tell me all about the DNA manipulation and how she had been abducted!!

And to top it off, my Dad is storing food and has become a doomer.

It's getting really weird out there.

 Quoting: Lady Ivory


honestly, not all that cool. lol

And as a general rule I'm rather anti-social myself.

I rarely do anything involving groups of people. My husband and I are pretty much hermits. I enjoy my alone time and if I didnt get it, I'm sure I would go nuts.

On the other hand, I can also be very out going and I can get along with just about anyone on a surface level. I could literally talk to a light post for hours. But there are some things I can not and will not tolerate, like bigotry or excusing injustices.
Those types will always get an ear from me.
If it's business relations, I usually try to just skirt the topic and move on. It's not my job to change these people.
I will often try to inquire on the person's position and plant seeds to make them question their position. Something like a question or a comment that will hopefully stick like a splinter in their mind and will annoying them to no end at all hours of the night until they think the whole thing through.

If its friends or family and I expect more from them, then I just call them out for it. Point blank. No pussy footing around. I simply call it like I see it.
It's really amazing how people say things that they dont even really mean. They think they do but it's just programmed rhetoric that they have not really thought through. I'm sure we are all guilty of it on some level...perhaps some more than others.

I think I'm even more anti-social due to my job. I'm so sick of being "on" all day that when I come home, I simply wish to tune out or inward and not socialize. It can be exhausting.

"Once in a dream I saw a snake swallowing its own tail, it swallowed and swallowed until it got halfway round, and there it stopped and there it stayed, it was stuffed with its own self. Some fix, that.
We only have ourselves to go on, and it’s enough…" -Charles Bukowski



"Grasping at things can only yield one of two results:
Either the thing you are grasping at disappears, or you yourself disappear.
It is only a matter of which occurs first."

Re: SOMETHING STRANGE HAPPENED TONIGHT...Thought Id share..
I talk to strangers everyday. It's how I make a living.

I assure you, many people are very suspect of what is going on.

Don't get me wrong, I met a lot of clueless people but I am in awe of how many people are coming out of the closet, so to speak, regarding what is going on in the world.

I usually plant seeds. I'm a seed planter and I like to shoot the shit with people. My meetings always last for hours and if I'm given an inch, I will take a mile. So maybe I just give off the vibe that its ok to open up to me and they do. I dunno, but something different is certainly going on.

I couldn't even imagine having these conversations with everyday mom and pop types a few years ago. Now it's happening all the time.

I even had an 83 year old lady tell me all about the DNA manipulation and how she had been abducted!!

And to top it off, my Dad is storing food and has become a doomer.

It's getting really weird out there.

:p

Wow..what a cool life you must have!

Im quite anti-social, really..I guess Im intimated by crowds of people..so I dont usually just go up and talk to people..but I wont be unfriendly..

honestly, not all that cool. lol

And as a general rule I'm rather anti-social myself.

I rarely do anything involving groups of people. My husband and I are pretty much hermits. I enjoy my alone time and if I didnt get it, I'm sure I would go nuts.

On the other hand, I can also be very out going and I can get along with just about anyone on a surface level. I could literally talk to a light post for hours. But there are some things I can not and will not tolerate, like bigotry or excusing injustices.
Those types will always get an ear from me.
If it's business relations, I usually try to just skirt the topic and move on. It's not my job to change these people.
I will often try to inquire on the person's position and plant seeds to make them question their position. Something like a question or a comment that will hopefully stick like a splinter in their mind and will annoying them to no end at all hours of the night until they think the whole thing through.

If its friends or family and I expect more from them, then I just call them out for it. Point blank. No pussy footing around. I simply call it like I see it.

Sammie..you seem like a hoot..really!

I think you got it all going on! ;):):)
I snuck a bunch of booze into work today using my stomach

I can't stand it when people won't speak a little louder when I'm trying to eavesdrop on them. You people are selfish.
