Dreams

It's been awhile since I posted about a dream so I don't feel too bad about doing it now. :) The dream happened last night and I will try to summarize it.

Basically I was in a concentration (reeducation) camp. I was being subjected to all sorts of horrible things and the people doing the horrible things thought they were doing something good because after all I did need reeducation according to the government. Some of them figured out that they were misguided and decided to help the only way they could by giving those that wanted to end their suffering a pill that would put them to sleep forever. I was looking around at some familiar faces and I started crying because I couldn't understand why so many were giving up and not willing to fight. Then I ran into Jason Bourne (this makes me laugh) and saw that he was working on an escape and I figured that if anyone could escape successfully it was him, so I followed. There was a lot of terror of being discovered as we had to go through some check points and things and then the dream was over. I don't know if I made it out or not. But, the point was that I tried.

On my walk this morning I was thinking about the movie Terminator and how it can be applied to what is going on in the world right now. I was remembering the line "if you are listening to this, you ARE the resistance" and wondering if a "John Conner" type person is going to appear sometime. We have an out of control government deliberatley trying to usurp the will of the people and basically wanting to turn us all in to mindless "cyborgs" by having us voluntarily, or by force if you don't agree, turn over our will to them. They believe we are just too weak or too dumb to know what's best for us. They are spending a lot of time trying to convince us that people who make money are evil and those that don't shouldn't have to ever make money because it's just not fair. It reminds me of when we were at the beach in Florida a couple of weeks ago and we got attacked by psycho birds. I'm sure in the beginning they were timid and people thought, oh, these birds must be starving because we have ruined their habitat, let's feed them. Only now they have become indignant thinking everyone owes them their food and they don't have to go out and hunt anymore because they just swoop down and literally take it out of your hands. (look for pictures on my fb) This is how we are training the American people to think, like these birds! Anyway, I will dig a tunnel underground and live there before I turn over my freedoms to a corrupt government or any government for that matter. There is nothing more important or sacred than my ability to choose for myself how I want to live my life. We also have an obligation to stand up against corruption and evil (if you like scriptural references look up Ether 8) and I'm not going to be the one swallowing a pill- heck no! I will be the one scared out of my mind but not going down without a fight for my freedoms. Now in case I have to stipulate this yet again, I mean by civil means and I'm not literally digging a tunnel in my backyard! geesh! I'm also aware that I'm probably starting to sound like a freak show, but that's ok by me because I know what's right and if freedom isn't worth fighting for then what is????

So there you go, this is the stuff that floats around in my brain..... :)
