I Love Inspirational Poems And Quotes

@missvegan

I tried that for the first 32 years of my life. I've lived off grid for many years now in a small community high in the Rocky mountains. A place where everybody has what they need. We all make sure of that. We speak to each other in passing. whether at the gas station, the cafe, or the general store, where you can still get food with no money in hand, only your signature and promise to pay later. There is no crime. An occasional siren from the volunteer fire dept once every month or so. Very few children play the latest games because they are taught real life skills in their free time. Such as how to take care of greenhouses to grow food, how to repair solar systems to keep the free electricity flowing, helping to build a house, learning to sew, feed goats and chickens, etc. The air and water are pure. Our neighbors are coyotes, eagles, elk, prairie dogs, bears, hawks, deer and the like. Our days are free for us to introsospect and appreciate more deeply what we have because we build it and repair it if necessary. We respect the land because it feeds us. We never pollute the earth. No one is ever in a hurry to do or go anywhere. We sometimes forget what day it is because it doesn't matter. When we wake up in the morning we decide what we are going to do that day. We dont share the benefit of the city. Being told when to get up, where to sit during the day, when we can eat or when we can go home. We are free, and not in the philosophical rhetorical sense. Sure, you can find quiet within yourself. However, the pollution from commutr traffic is unhealthy. The constant noise and buzz from the unnatural energy that flows through microwaves, wi-fi, and a whole host of electromagnetic fields is unhealthy. The recycled toilet water and grey water infused with a multitude of chemicals to give the appearance of cleanliness and then sent back to homes to be consumed and bathed in. The food provided in corporate stores are laden with all sorts of poisons. Even the organic foods are now tainted. I prefer to walk outside to one of my greenhouses and pick fresh herbs and vegetables I grew for the dinner salad. All of these things contribute to the appreciation of life you speak of. To live naturally and take responsibility for ones daily needs. This peace cannot be found in a place where technology has superceded humanity. Where people don't know or associate with the neighbor next door or around the block. This type of peace is hard to hold when week after week you are consumed with the thought of I've got to pay this or that. That's called making a living. Existing. I prefer to make a LIFE, and experience the meaning of your post. Thank you for your reply.

imgreywlf,I walked on the hot coals, with Tony Robbins several times. If your talking about Texas, 7 thousand people walked that day, 30 people complained after the seminar, Medical staff were available.
Everyone has the choice of walking.No one was forced. This seminar has been going on for 35 years with very few problems.

Can't do this in a concrete jungle.

Have you walked on coals?
If someone loses their concentration they can get get hurt. Like many past-times and sports. Like I said, 35 years of successful seminars, speak for themselves.

You are the one that brought up firewalking. I just responded.
It also isn't your post, it's missvegan"s.
All I did was post an inspirational quote.

I'm sorry.
You seem to be the only person that's arguing.
