Something Is Rotten In America

In writing this article, I had to constantly remind myself that what is happening in America today is not an outlandish work of fiction that few people would find conceivable, but a harsh reality that is happening now. On one hand, I am fortunate to be a witness to history, but on the other hand, sick at heart that this could happen here,  the country I love..

It is not hyperbole to say that we are witnessing the culmination of decades of massive corruption. It is so fantastic in size, scope, and evil as to be worthy of the most heinous crime organizations that have ever existed.

Mass Murder, Treason, Insurrection, Sedition

It involves mass murder, treason, insurrection, and sedition.

A large contingent of the most barbarous group of men and women have literally declared war on the United States. They are an army of embedded bureaucrats otherwise known as the Deep State, current and former political leaders, a cooperative and collusive disinformation media, several well-indoctrinated generations employed as useful idiots, and a foreign power working in concert, having been given comfort and assurance. That foreign power is China. What they are collectively willing to do to seize power is unimaginable.

I only suspected this back in March, but I am beginning to believe that the COVID-19 pandemic, the rioting, the deaths, the destruction of property and the crushing of an entire nation is the result of a well-planned, well orchestrated hoax. It is like a massive injection of chemotherapy in an otherwise healthy patient, for what is considered by the Left to be a cancer on their power and control…Donald J. Trump. The Left is willing to see the host die rather than take any seat other than at the head of the table. They have decided that it is better to reign in Hell than to serve in Heaven.

Consider the following:

To protect fellow criminals within their extortion network, the Obama administration was not going to allow Trump to become president. Their attack, their insurance plan, was five fold: the election, the Russia-Collusion hoax, a worldwide pandemic, a race war, and, if all else fails, engineer an economic collapse. The coincidences are everywhere, too convenient, too prompt.

With the support of a brainless mob, Marxist Black Lives Matter, Antifa

In 2016, despite the constant bombardment from the media, the fake polls showing Hillary with a 96% chance of winning, Trump won the presidency. The collusion story was then unleashed. After several years of non-stop assaults by the Democrat Party and media coverage, the impeachment failed. Almost immediately, they released the hounds, an insurgency under the cover of a pandemic.

In 2015, Obama authorized the funding of virus experimentation in Wuhan, China, the hub of the pandemic. It was to create the agent for a global virus pandemic attack. Fauci even publicly predicted in 2017 the possibility of a pandemic during Trump’s first term, but, at the time Fauci wasn’t sure if it was going to be released since the impeachment process had not been decided. How did he know? The virus was released the very day the impeachment collapsed. It was not a natural event. Coincidence?

With an unjustified global shutdown for an historically minor virus outbreak, 24/7 news coverage, all media outlets reporting a barrage of up-to-the-minute numbers of infection and death, however inflated by adding regular flu virus numbers, the nation came to a near standstill. When it proved insufficient, the Democrat governors of New York, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and California went against federal guidelines and moved infected COVID patients into nursing homes where they knew the most vulnerable would also be infected, even while newly erected field hospitals and two Navy hospital ships stood near empty. The result was genocide, over 40,000 COVID deaths…murder!

As planned, COVID-19 reversed much of what President Trump had accomplished, firmly planted fear, and halted the highly successful MAGA rallies. To further dishearten the public, churches were closed in the guise of public safety. Just when millions of people needed to lean on their faith, it was pulled away. A national anxiety and depression settled in.

Through all the violence and death, the Democrats have been silent, total appeasement

And then another coincidence, the suspicious death of George Floyd by a white cop known to Floyd just when new COVID cases were beginning to flatten. It seemed obvious by the video footage that the police officer’s intent was to kill Floyd. The goal was to arouse racial hatred, division, and civil unrest to further divide an already fractured nation.

With the support of a brainless mob, a Marxist Black Lives Matter and Antifa, funded by Soros and ignorant corporations thinking they are buying protection, the riots that ensued destroyed or stole everything in its path with hardly a mention of Floyd. In Seattle, a six-block area was taken over that included a police station, giving thugs access to firearms and ammunition. Only when Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan’s neighborhood was attacked did she decide to clean up CHAZ, later CHOP, the autonomous zone the mayor called a ‘street festival.’ A street festival that killed two people, both black.

In every Democrat state, police were held back allowing rioters to have their way, furthering and encouraging civil unrest. Politicians suddenly seemed unconcerned about any resulting COVID spread. Churches had to close but rioting, pot shops, and liquor stores could remain open.

With the accelerated chaos, the refusal of Democrat governors and mayors to protect their citizens, the call for defunding or eliminating police began, along with the eviction of the National Guard. On June 22, Democrat Congressman, Adam Schiff proposed a bill calling for the elimination of military force as a posse Comitatus to weaken the ability of President Trump to curb the planned insurrection that was to continue during the coming months.

Through all the violence and death, the Democrats have been silent, total appeasement. I cannot remember any Democrat, speaking out against Black Lives Matter, Antifa or the nameless rabble of anarchists. Why should they? They’re acting as their militia.

Just a few months from the election, Democrats are now calling for mail-in elections due to COVID, knowing full well the fraud that will certainly ensue. How considerate of them! In many areas of the country they went from ‘Flatten the Curve’ to ‘Find a Cure’ as a prerequisite to reopening a business. They are constantly putting roadblocks ahead of returning to normal.

What we are witness to is a massive criminal network

At the same time, Barr and Durham have continued their investigation of the Obama administration that had weaponized the FBI and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to spy on the Trump campaign. They are getting close and the scope of the investigation is growing daily. Obama officials, including Biden and Obama are claiming social distancing guidelines to halt any hearings. James Clapper even said he would be glad to appear to any hearing once he receives the COVID-19 vaccine, which could take years.

What will China get? A continued sellout of American jobs and assets. They will have the benefit of a substantially weakened United States, and an emboldened Communist Chinese leadership.

What we are witness to is a massive criminal network from both sides of the political fence determined to protect their rice bowl at all costs, even to the destruction of the country they took an oath to serve. These rotten ‘swamp creatures’ have decided to no longer be Americans, but agents of another philosophy, another political system totally incompatible with the American ideal. They will do anything to continue their struggle, even as some past presidents fabricated reasons for war in exchange for profit and power.

I have no doubt that President Trump, if allowed, will right the ship of state unless, while in their declining days, the traitors will make one last attempt at survival, cover, and chaos, and engineer a total collapse of our economy. My estimation of probability in September, October, or November, is 50/50. Something is rotten, and it stinks. God help us!

 

Once Again, President Trump Hands Democrats Enough Rope….


Vast majority of American citizens want to pursue their careers, raise their families, and have money in their pockets, peace in their hearts and safety in their homes

Once Again, President Trump Hands Democrats Enough Rope….

Here’s an old, irrefutable chestnut: If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging!

But Regressives refuse to learn that lesson and are yet again falling into the chasm of a trap President Trump has set for them.

Listen to the uproar the mostly-leftist media bleat every minute of every day: Why aren’t the president and his Republican colleagues saying anything, doing anything about all the destruction and madness that the [Democrat-approved] anarchists are wreaking throughout the country––the arson, smashed windows, destroyed businesses, separatist zones in Seattle and NY City, defund-the-police initiatives, out-of-control thuggery, on and on?

THE MEME THING

Yet the silence persists. Does even one person on the planet think this is a coincidence? A fluke? An historical aberration?

Just as Democrats send out daily talking points––remember the Dick Cheney “gravitas” meme that every media person echoed ad nauseam and then never said the word again after Bush 2 was elected?

Same thing today after Regressives learned that the word “defunding” polled badly so they uniformly switched to “reimagining” police reform.

I’m imagining that the president or his surrogates sent the Republicans and Conservatives a memo to refrain from addressing the vast destruction we’ve been witnessing for weeks. Because even in this Age of Communication––where instant text messages and emojis and YouTube videos and Instagram pictures invade the airways literally billions of times a day–– doing nothing and saying nothing can still be more powerful!

A BIRD’S-EYE VIEW

By letting the 24-7 TV pictures speak for themselves, President Trump is providing all 330-million people in America––and the other eight-billion people around the world––an up-front bird’s-eye-view of what leftism/liberalism/regressivism is all about.

All those people are watching the president faithfully adhere to the U.S. Constitution’s mandate to allow the states to conduct their own affairs. He is giving those states the rope he knows will hang them, as is already obvious in the imploding cities of Seattle, Manhattan, Baltimore, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, and all the other Democrat-run cities and states where chaos reigns.

He’s allowing all the world to see the startling incompetence and hypocrisy of the Democrat Mayor of Seattle, Jenny Durkan, who embraced Antifa and Black Lives Matter when they commandeered and blockaded a six-block area of the city and entitled it CHOP (Capitol Hill Organized Protest). Then she told the police force to stand down and, in essence, to ignore the escalating pillaging, rapes and murders. But when the protestors approached her own home, what did she do? She called the police!

The president is providing a front-row seat for the world to witness the aberrational behavior of the man who NY Post columnist Michael Goodwin calls Mayor Putz. That would be Democrat NY City Mayor Bill DiBlasio who just slashed $1 billion dollars from the police budget and put his America-loathing Democrat wife Chirlane in charge of the destruction of historic statues––she who cannot account for another billion she was given for mental-health programs.

In the same way, the president is allowing America and the world to see the ongoing––for years––black-on-black carnage that takes place every week in Chicago, and to wonder why clueless Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot is so busy with her platform platitudes of Equity*Diversity & Inclusion* that she personally makes it appear that Black Lives Don’t Matter at all in Chicago.

Not to omit the firsthand look the entire world is getting at the way in which California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom––who is fighting a recall vote––has let the major cities in his state, Los Angeles and San Francisco (Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s turf), to become meccas of homelessness, with thousands of crude tents and cardboard shanties lining street after street after street, while tens of thousands of mentally ill and addicted people lie in the gutters, used needles and disease-carrying filth are everywhere, and there are piles of animal and human feces every few feet.

STILL THE SMARTEST GUY IN THE ROOM

All of the above––and hundreds of other equally shameful and sordid examples––is what Democrat leadership actually looks like. Not to be outdone, to be sure, by the aspiring “leader” of the free world, who remains sequestered in his basement, the true victim of a heartless and ambitious wife and a ruthless former boss who is directing his lackeys to continue to prop up the place-holder while he makes sure that is second try at rigging a presidential election will not fail as it did in 2016.
Meanwhile, President Trump can take full credit for issuing the Executive Order on Protecting American Monuments, Memorials, and Statues––with a mandatory penalty of 10 years in prison––as well as combating recent criminal violence.

Now, on this glorious July 4th weekend, full credit also goes to President Trump for opening up America and seeing:

The U.S. economy add an incredible 4.8 million jobs in June–– beating estimates by 1.7 million jobs––the largest monthly increase ever recorded!

The addition of an amazing 7.5 million jobs over the past two months.

The unemployment rate also fell to 11.1%!

That the nation has now recovered roughly one-third of the 22 million jobs it lost to the pandemic.

The DOW have the best quarter in 33 years (up 17.77%).

NASDAQ up 30.63% in 90 days!

The bottom line is that except for the clinically insane politicians on the East and Left coasts, the vast majority of American citizens want to pursue their careers, raise their families, and have money in their pockets, peace in their hearts and safety in their homes.

President Trump knows this in every fiber of his being. But not one single Democrat has a clue.

Conservative News Sites Now Shilling For Black Lives Matter?


Conservative news sites, don’t compromise your standards, go to Whatfinger

Conservative News Sites Now Shilling For Black Lives Matter?

Flagging some of the best conservative news sites to an inherent danger on this July 4th weekend:

Your logos and Internet reputations are at risk having been used by aggregate site Mixi-Media to openly solicit donations for radical Marxist Black Lives Matter.

Although conservatives are more than likely unaware of it, their sites are now being used to drive conservative readers to a site that brazenly supports Black Lives Matter.

Conservative sites joined Mixi.Media not to shill for BLM funding

It’s not that National Review, NewsMax, Daily Wire, Daily Caller, ZeroHedge, RealClearPolitics, The Blaze, the highly respected Epoch Times and others are shilling for Black Lives Matter on their popular news sites, it’s that they seem to have been hoodwinked by a traffic-promising news aggregator site calling itself Mixi.Media.

Fellow patriots, you don’t have to take CFP’s word for it, go to Mixi.Media, view the bottom left corner and view for yourself the BLM logo.  Clicking on the Black Fist takes you directly to a donation request:

The Conservative sites joined Mixi.Media not to shill for BLM funding, but in the hopes of getting more traffic from Mixi.Media.

But readers coming to the conservative sites don’t know that, and whether or not they got an increase in traffic, they certainly got the Black Fist.

No one knows who the owners of Mixi.Media are, and a CFP Google search proved it.

Mixi.media, Black Lives Matters

Fellow Conservative news sites, don’t compromise your standards

With the current downturn in the economy and social media suppressing conservative news sites in the approach of Election 2020, conservative sites are looking to increase their traffic for online survival.

Aggregate sites promise increased traffic, but in CFP experience there’s only one that does deliver an increase in traffic—Whatfinger.

Whatfinger, operated by two patriots who served their country in uniform, increases traffic without compromising the editorial stands of conservative news sites.

Meanwhile, sorry for the July 4th interruption but time is of the essence.

How long will conservative readers come to conservative news sites as long as they are associated with Black Lives Matter?

Fellow Conservative news sites, don’t compromise your standards.

If it’s traffic you’re looking for, go to Whatfinger,.

Prepare for the 2nd Lockdown


Switzerland has started 2nd wave on soft side = wearing masks in public transportation + quarantine when traveling back from 29 countries (incl. US, RU, Sweden, Israel..). Governments are using this virus which is no more deadly than the flu to impose restraints on commerce in preparation for what is in truth the Monetary Crisis Cycle. Governments realize that they have reached the point of no return when it comes to debt. The ECB moved rates to negative in 2014 and after 6 years of total failure of Keynesian Economics, they are confronted with the realization that the global debt system and socialism are collapsing. They are hoping to use the virus, destroy jobs that are related to fossil fuels, and compensate people with guaranteed basic income which is minimal. Welcome to the new real NORM!

Florida & Texas Attracting Even More Migrants from High-Taxed States


The flight from the high-tax states continues to create a diversified real estate market throughout the United States. The Florida market is resilient. Despite the problems associated with COVID-19, the average price of sold listings through June 2020 is 6.3% higher year over year.  The average price in 2019 was $390,447 while the average price in 2020 was $415,190 with respect to a select group of condos on the west coast. People are once again out viewing properties and some friends from New York have commented they cannot stay in New York even another month as it has become draconian and dangerous.

One fried from LA who just flew out here said the police did not even try to stop looting, for the politicians told them to stand down for fear they might shoot some minority so they just let stores be looted. Another friend from Pennsylvania also called and wanted to move. He said a major shopping mall, King of Prussia Mall, was looted and prompted a State of Emergency declaration in Upper Merion Township. In just the past few weeks, the number of friends who have called or flown here looking for a property is stunning. One said I should have followed you four years ago — “I’m not sure I can even sell my house now!”

Act or Be Acted Upon…


It is not my intent to be cryptic; but at a time of consequence, it is necessary.  That said, there roots of CTH are deep, strong and enduring.  Nothing here will change; this is your refuge and I tend to it as a happy steward.  That is important to me.

Before going further, I know there are questions.  Perhaps my sharing a recent communication is a familiar transparency you have come to expect; perhaps also it will answer some questions… or at the least, begin the conversation:

Good afternoon XXXXXX, and thank you for reaching out.

I am working right now on a project I started in December 2018.  It is nearing a key inflection point, and over the next few weeks I should reach an anticipated crossroad.

My goal has never been to write or publish a book; nor gain influence or affluence. That objective remains.  Digital pamphlets for the common man in the spirit of Thomas Paine is always my primary approach.  The truth has no agenda; but so many people and institutions do.

With that in mind, it is the lack of action on a very specific, and demonstrably provable, example that now represents a very significant opportunity to highlight our national condition.

As the nation awaits the results of the probe being conducted by USAO John Durham, and with an expectation of outcome based on recent history, I have assembled a library of evidence that will either enhance the Durham result; and/or challenge it, depending on his finding.

In the spirit of Paine’s intent, information without action is antithetical to its purpose.

Volume III, a big ugly confrontation, is the key.  How does the common man retain liberty within a system whose existence is contingent upon a foundation of pretense. While knowing the cornerstone of that system is dependent on ignoring the truth he/she carries?

It is very kind of you to reach out, and I thank you for it.

As Frost aptly noted “two roads diverge in a yellow wood”… I shall know within two weeks which path.

Warmest regards,

Sundance

As noted above; and based on a similar level of frustrated 2013/2014 interest that laid the groundwork for the 2015 splitter strategy outline and subsequent 2016 tripwire series; back in 2018 I began ‘gaming-out’ an unfortunate and likely 2020 scenario based on a series of events I suspected would surface within the body politic.  The difference this time was the severity of consequence.

Recognizing in late summer 2018 that key DOJ, FBI, SSCI and media actions could ONLY be created by a very intentional design, for very intentional purposes, I started thinking about the ramifications for 2020.

As said often before, currently missing amid our national condition is action.

Information without action is antithetical to its purpose. This is why we miss Andrew Breitbart so much.  Additionally, what a shallow example would I be to myself if cast against this site’s masthead.  We all need to summon the courage to be Andrew Breitbart.

With that in mind; and entirely based on a carefully catalogued and irrefutably true set of records; on a very specific and consequential issue that cuts to the core of some of the most powerful interests in our nation; I set about planning an insurance policy of sorts.  An “in case of emergency, break glass” kind of approach; perhaps even a ‘broken arrow’.

I have been working this since late summer 2018, specifically the evening after I said President Donald Trump was going to fire Jeff Sessions on the day after the 2018 election. (He did)  By December ’18 it was seriously underway.  I have gamed-out every possible outcome you can imagine; and now enter a phase where I shall be organizing the specific details, and hopefully allies, in order to get an unstoppable chain of events in motion.

If John Durham and Bill Barr deliver the brutal truth this summer, then a series of releases of information will hopefully enhance their sunlight.  However, if they do not deliver the big ugly truth of it – then I will initiate events.  Or I’ll go down trying.

There is a very specific and demonstrable story that is beyond refute and purposefully ignored by media.  Within that back-story a whole lot of powerful people and systems are exposed.  The specificity and irrefutable nature of the story is the key.  Those institutions and the people in them will be confronted and shared in real time so all can watch.

A digital pamphlet simultaneously dropped while each participant is confronted… through a series of relentless confrontations.  Yes, I know the risks.  That’s why I’ve been planning, assembling, coordinating, and putting things into place for two years.  I am not naive to the severity of the interests involved, nor their abilities; hell, I research them.

Do or do not, there is no try.

Act or be acted upon.

That is all I can share for now….

Domestic Terrorism – Black Lives Matter “Protestors” Murder 8-Year-Old Black Child…


Atlanta Georgia has erupted into a lawless society as a willfully complicit Atlanta Mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms, attempts to avoid her role in the murder of an 8-year-old child as violent Black Lives Matter protestors run amok in the city.

On Saturday night about 9:30, Charmaine Turner and her daughter were driving with a friend when they attempted to turn into a store near a group of armed Black Lives Matter protestors.  Two of the BLM activists opened fire on their vehicle for not complying with their unlawful roadblock, and 8-year-old Secoriea Turner was shot.  She died in her mothers arms as they attempted to escape the area and get to a hospital.

Secoriya Williamson, father of 8-year-old Secoriea Turner, addressed the public.

“They say Black Lives Matter. You killed your own… You killed a child” Mr. Williamson noted:

.

A reward of up to $10,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and indictment of the BLM activists. Tipsters may remain anonymous and should call the Crime Stoppers Atlanta tip line at 404-577-TIPS (8477).  Atlanta Mayor Bottoms says she is sorry for their loss as she continues negotiations with the domestic terrorist group.

Comrade Cuomo Reminds Good Citizens To Comply With Big Tech Health Surveillance…


Comrades, when we transmitted the original warning on April 11th, and then again on April 12th, we were met with scorn and derision.  ‘They would never‘, they said…

Ah, but they did.

Comrade Andrew Cuomo now deploys the exact COVID compliance strategy we warned would be weaponized in the interest of the state. [Tweet Link]

This is very much not a spoof, and you won’t like what follows when you answer the phone only to discover you have been identified by contact tracers as a potential carrier.

Comrade Cuomo is not happy with non-compliant citizens refusing to adjust their wrongful thinking to benefit the needs of our new state. During these stressful times thought, without regard for collective need, is an indication a citizen may be a subversive. Please report subversives to the Ministry of COVID Compliance, so they too may be blocked from the benefits of the new union; and encouraged with enhanced support.

OUR PRIOR WARNING – If non-compliant behavior continues due to some pre-conceived notion of liberty; or if wrong-thoughts continue to be expressed; it may become necessary for the Ministry to deduct 200 credits from your social compliance score. Please do not put the Ministry in the position of having to make such decisions. Compliance is in your best interest.

State influence agent, Comrade Cuomo, helps to correct wrong-thinking. The state will never force you to share your health records. Only if you wish to remove yourself from voluntary home confinement, access rights, and unlock your social privileges, will you be encouraged to join a health registry via your voluntary cell phone/transponder provider.

The Ministry would never force your compliance comrade. You may choose to remain external to the Federated United State System (FUSS). You may also choose not to participate in the employment network, state services, access to civil transit, large entertainment gatherings, parks and restaurants. Nothing is mandated. Relax comrades, the Ministry is sensitive to your previous rights as we initiate our new, safer, society.

The COVID Compliance Ministry appreciates good citizens who voluntarily participate in the registry. We reward good citizenship status with enhanced credits allowing access to a safe COVID Compliant Society. A safer society; where odds will always be in their favor.

Would it not be preferable in the new regime to have an alert on your phone warning you of your proximity to a non-compliant, possibly infected, citizen?

A rogue citizen could put a compliant society at risk of infection. They may not just carry biologics they could carry a more alarming virus of wrong-thought against the interests of the state. Rogue citizens would be subversive to our new society.

Surely all good citizens would agree with Comrade Adams; there must be an emergency alert of some form identifying the larger audience to these subversive public enemies so we could respond accordingly. The infrastructure is already established. Society is familiar with “Amber Alerts”, this would be a slight modification to avoid viral spread.

Relax, it’s going to be lots of fun Comrades. Perhaps we just start with digital armbands, certifications within your portable transponder unit, to compliment our mandatory face masks. Each state could create their designated digital stamps for your COVID ID.

Traveling will be so much fun, we can collect the whole set. “Achtung Juden – New York”, “Juden Raus – California”, and the larger federal “Enemy of the People”, designation.

Social Distancing or House Arrest…. Details, comrades,… details.

I’d be very interested in how Comrade Scott Adams now positions himself after previously promoting exactly this type of surveillance state.  Apparently, freedom is so overrated.

I mean what could possibly go wrong with a merging of Big Tech and government control of society? Would it not be preferable in the new regime to have an alert on your phone warning you of your proximity to a non-compliant citizen?

As you can see, it has come to pass.

Good luck.

Important Bill Barr Interview Segment With Maria Bartiromo: “This is the closest we have ever come to an organized effort to push a president out of office”…


As Max Ehmann said in 1927 “whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.”  From an important reference point, this quote holds additional meaning when cast against the backdrop of this Bill Barr segment. [More on that later.]

This morning Maria Bartiromo released a previous segment of her interview with AG Bill Barr that was not originally broadcast.  It is a very insightful segment.  AG Barr begins by acknowledging a very key and foundational point: President Donald Trump was indeed targeted by various entities in a concerted effort to remove him from office.  Do not let the importance of just that statement alone sit without its appropriate weight.

Second, another key aspect from the attorney general perspective is highlighted at 03:30 to 03:53 where he notes the role and responsibility of media. The importance of a distinction Barr makes is subtle for most, but for CTH it’s important because of THIS.

I would urge everyone to take the time to watch this segment.

Inflection Points….


I have long felt that life is like a series of links in a chain. You might be driving down the road and you hear a song on the radio, or see a picture, and you feel a memory…. Something that reminds you of a different time and place than where you are right now.

You reflect.

The memories remind you of a totally different time in your life. Perhaps you lived in a different place. Perhaps you were surrounded by different people. Perhaps a different job or completely different friends.

Our reflection recognizes those memories like frozen moments in time. They become individual links in the chain in our life.

We never actually realize, in the immediate moment, when one link closes and another link begins. But when we look back, we can clearly see distinct points where things changed, the link closed, and a new link began. The links are only visible in reflection.

As we reflect we find parts of the chain in our life where each link closes and connects with the other. Yes, a beginning and an end.

At the point where the links are joined we carry parts of the previous link forward to the next. For many people those connections are bonded by family, or very strong life long relationships. Connections which continue beyond our geographic moments, jobs or temporary acquaintances.

But for everyone, the primary bonding agent brought forward from one link to the next is ourselves, our center, our values and core principles. Our beliefs.

The strength of the steel which comprises the links of our life is determined by forging in the fire of adversity, weakness, challenge, pain, loss, and painful growth. The steel is then cooled with the tears of triumph, hurdles overcome and resolve.

The forging makes the steel stronger and able to withstand the pressures that accompany the additional length. Slowly the chain becomes wiser as it lengthens. Able to reach further, form more significant benefits and become more useful.

Hope replaces fear. Love replaces loneliness. Success replaces adversity. These are successful links began and finished while contributing to the whole.

At times we may manipulate the links with avoidance. We hide from -or choose to avoid- an issue in our effort to begin a new link before the old one was naturally, and spiritually, prepared to be closed. Eventually as life continues, and the chain lengthens, the weak link can fracture and we are forced to revisit/repair what we originally chose to avoid.

You see, in life we cannot control the universal laws that guide us. So if we manipulate circumstances to avoid confronting our own weakness, we cannot fully strengthen our life of links. Eventually, the weakness of our past will impact our future.

So what do we carry from link to link? What core values and beliefs stay with us throughout the journey of our lives? The answers to these questions are what makes us human spiritual beings.

We possess freewill able to make choices about what we do, and how we define our individual humanity; but can we then define ’right’ and ‘wrong’ according to our individual principles? Or are there principles that exceed our influence and definition?

Are there natural laws of right and wrong, good and bad, that cannot be subjected to the determination of man? These are the bigger questions, perhaps the more important questions, and yet perhaps the ones we reflect upon the least.

Consider the example of the ‘Law of the Farm’ vs. the ‘Law of the School’. Natural principles vs. those made by man.

A student can skip class, take few notes, pay only half attention, then stay up all night cramming for a test and manage a decent grade. It depends on the students goal: grades or learning.

The student can choose to manipulate the education by avoiding the learning and capturing the grade. This is possible in the ‘Law of the School’.

However, a farmer cannot take short cuts. A farmer cannot avoid tending to the soil, preparing the seed, fertilizing and nurturing the crop, and still gain benefit of an abundant harvest.  The farmer must necessarily do all of the appropriate work in order to benefit from it. Such is the ‘Law of the Farm’, the natural law.

When one considers the weakness remaining within a poorly constructed and manipulated link, perhaps established by selfish choices and driven by avoidance and fear, one can be faithfully be assured those who have dealt dishonestly with us will have to visit the issues of their association again. Conversely, no amount of manipulation or avoidance on our own behalf is going to improve the frailty of any link without first resolving the lack of character which created the weakness.

So we have choices in our lives. Decisions we each make regarding how we interact, and participate in the lives and links of others; as well as how we choose to construct the links that compromise our own lives. Do we base our sense of purpose around natural principles? Principles based on natural laws of right and wrong, good and bad, truth and lies.

Do we forge strong links based on following our heart, our values? If we can interact with others absent of a prideful self-driven agenda, or manipulative intent, we can then apply such principles and strength to our endeavors.

If we protect the integrity of the soil upon which we build the foundation of our lives, we can live without regret.

If we fertilize and cherish our crop, and the crop of our neighbor, with honesty and sincere appreciation for the souls we meet along our chosen path, we will live a life of abundance.

If we tend carefully to the consideration of everyone, yet holding true to our values and principles, we can strengthen ourselves amid the face of adversity and disenchantment.

If we do not hide from, nor ignore, our individual and collective faults, we can build the chain of our life with strength, humility, and purpose.

I wish for each of you the very best of life.  A long chain of bold, strong, beautiful links, polished with the reflective brilliance of Love.

~ Sundance

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost (1874 – 1963)
