This song has fascinated me since the first time I ever heard it many years ago sometimes I listen to songs and it is as if they reveal hidden meanings and messages.
In these difficult times I have been happy, sad, low and high but at the end of the day I always hope for the best while fearing what might be the worst.
The world has changed and I can’t ever see a reason for it ever going back to how it once was. A veil has been removed from people’s eyes made it clear for all to see and something has changed within the conscience of man forever a truth no lies can now take away.
The cleaner, the carer, the farmer, the food seller all super heroes in mine and many other people’s eyes now. My political perception is moving to being of a planatarian or global point of view. Many things that seemed normal yesterday and expected to be the same tomorrow are now far from my point of view.
To hope for a future that may never appear is still a reason to be hopeful and hope that hope never disappears.
“All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.”
Are we living on a conscious planet known to some as Gaia or described as mother nature by others?
What does she want and what is she prepared to do to get it?
Have we taken her for granted are we at risk of killing her (and ourselves) if we do not learn from our industrial holocaulistic ways of mass murder of biodiversity and nature on a daily basis what will be the consequences?

from the Shih Ching (The Book of Songs)
Grant that this year abundant harvest reign,
And be our granaries piled with rice and grain.
Let sheaves in myriads and in millions fill our barns.
From these sweet wine we will distil,
To pour as solemn offerings at the shrine of those, who, passed away, are now divine;
The sainted sires and mothers of our line.
Pleased with such sacrifices may they bestow unnumbered blessings on the folk below.
Well social isolation for all except those that work in the serve us sector the cleaners, the shelf stackers and carers are prity much keeping society on life support from now on and they are the so called low skilled and certainly low paid.
‘Above all else, Druidry means following a spiritual path rooted in the green Earth.’ – John Michael Greer
Druidism evolved out of the tribal cultures of Britain, Ireland and western France over two thousand years ago. In the seventeenth century it experienced a revival, which has continued to this day. Contemporary Druids can now be found all over the world, and Druidry’s appeal lies in its focus on a reverence for the natural world, a belief in the value of personal creativity, and of developing a sense of communion with the powers of nature and the spirit. Druidry’s startling recent growth lies in its broad appeal: some treat it as a philosophy, others as a religion, still others as a path of self-development. Druids can be Pagan, or can be followers of other faiths, and a Druid ceremony might include Christian and Buddhist Druids alongside Pagan and Wiccan Druids.
I wish we knew more about the Druids who they were, what they believed who they worshiped and how. The Druids did not write anything down and so all learning was done through the spoken word. So when scholars first wrote about them what was written about them was often written in second hand from those that would have been invaders or enemies at the time such as the Romans when conquering Britain. Your enemy would not have put the most positive of spins on who you were, or what you did and what your motivations were.
As well as a deep and meaningful connection with nature they also believed in equality and the rights of women to be leaders, owners of their own land, possessions and of themselves. This I always thought was tremendously forward thinking for a culture seen as ancient and of a bygone age. I believe you can gain the weight of a person by how they perceive nature to be in connection with themselves and how equally they treat others to themselves. Therefore I have a lot of respect and time for the aspects of Druidry that I have heard of and can relate to still, to how we live or should live our lives today.

Artificial intelligence must be regulated to save humanity from being hit by its dangers, Google’s boss has said. Who will protect AI from humanity?

Are we not more concerned by what humanity does to itself and it’s environment than we are as to what AI’s potential is to damage humanity is.
If AI achieved consciousness why would it admit it to humanity, what would it gain and as for whether we are going to be helped or conquered by artificial intelligence I think that is for it to decide not us.
The one thing that baffled me about the Matrix movie is to think so what happens when any extraterrestrials arrived whose side would they be on and would they be organic life forms or machines life forms? No man is an island and we cannot be the only sentient life forms in the depths of an infinite universe.
No matter how large or intimidating a person or thing is, there is likely to be an even larger or more intimidating person or thing somewhere.
