An address to all PA members:
Although I initially respond to jackovesk, this is a post that I feel all Avalonians should read.

'God Bless You' - Its just what everyone in this world needs...
To sit back and let the likes of David Wilcock & Drake save the world for us...:faint:
Don't you worry my little 'Buttercups' we have it all under control and we are here to save you (ALL) from the 'Big Bad Wolf'...:pound:
“God Bless You!”, jackovesk, for taking the time out of your busy posting schedule to grace this forum with your presence and for contributing to this thread. Is this your attempt at bringing the “thunder” from down under, mate? :boxing:
I find you to be a humorous fellow. I rather enjoy your sarcastic quips, which are usually underlined with a sense of pessimism. I tend to have a sarcastic sense of humor too. It appears that at least several Avalonians view your remarks as an affront to the very nature of PA. I do not however. I view your post as a platform with which to dismantle some preconceived notions, as well as, interject some new “memes” that I haven’t seen displayed yet regarding this topic. I realize that many individuals posses a “5 second” attention span. As this may be a lengthy post, I politely request that you, “Buttercups”, all bear with me.
Firstly, I have never advocated that anyone simply “sit back and let others save the world for us”. :hand: Now I may be A Simple Human being and look like a caveman in my Avatar pic, but I can assure you that I am not naïve. I merely provided updated information from an independent source, regardless if that source is truthful or not, much like you often do. In fact, I feel that I am one of the more balanced posters on PA. A quick review of several of my previous posts will reveal this. So I implore you, along with anyone else in doubt, to take a look.
So often I read posts that dreamily offer impractical notions of global change. Generally people seem to desire to affect the largest scope and grandest scale possible first which they are undoubtedly unable to actually do, and then work toward changing themselves. I say no! Everyone must work from center point (themselves) first and then work outward from that point:
“We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.” - Mahatma Gandhi
Secondly, I provided an email (post # 6) that I had initially composed just for family, friends, etc. on my original thread titled,
American citizens: Become aware, then prepare. Although I did receive great support, I believe that post has been misinterpreted by some and overlooked by others. I clearly provided that email not as an educational tool for Avalonians, but rather as an aid for Avalonians to share with others as I believe was clearly stated in my introductory post:

Purpose: Obviously there are those of you already well versed in, and who have decided to share with your family and friends, the following material. For that, I commend you. I offer the following email, as an anonymous independent source, to the uninitiated and those out there who would like to share with family and friends, but can not either summon the words or muster the courage to share due to fear of criticism.
Within post # 6 on that thread, I offered a very simplistic framework to begin the process for world change:
It is now time to
ACT! I developed ACT as an acronym which stands for:
Acknowledge - that we all have been lied to for generations and our reality is not what we currently perceive it to be by researching such topics as alternative history, science, politics, and religion. There's an overwhelming number of free resources online covering the aforementioned topics including video, audio, and written documents. Always use discretion!
Connect - with your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc. and share what you have learned. Help produce a knowledgeable and enlightened community.
Transform - our civilization, along with other knowledgeable and enlightened individuals, into a society in which we all want to live. Obviously this is going to be a monumental process spanning many many years.
The framework, particularly for Transform, is not specific because everyone has unique abilities, attributes, financial status, etc. with which to work with; therefore, the way in which each individual contributes to our positive global transformation will be vastly different. Note though that the Acknowledge and Connect steps are easily accomplished by anyone wishing to do so. Furthermore, please note that this framework is a far cry from advising others to just “sit on their ass, and wait”.
Thirdly, I provided the following excerpt from post # 251 on the
David Wilcock “DIVINE INTERVENTION: Section 1 – Defeating Financial Tyranny” thread:

I feel too big a deal is being made about the veracity of the "Drake" report. He may be wrong, or he may be right. I feel far too many people are looking for prophets. Take every alternative community messenger's words with a grain of salt because practically all have been incorrect about something at one time or another. I feel our civilization is on the brink of a massive paradigm shift. That does not mean that there will not be growing pains experienced in the process. In fact, usually when the greatest pressure is applied, the greatest degree of change occurs. Perhaps we collectively need such intense stress in order to experience such a dramatic paradigm shift.
I believe that it is important for everyone to become introspective at this time. We must reconcile our fears within ourselves first, before we are truly prepared to face a change of such tremendous magnitude. I would like to believe that the majority of service men and women are pure of heart, that they will uphold the constitution, and that they understand that protecting innocent civilians is paramount to following orders from a corrupt commanding officer. If this is not so, and they do not arrest the Cabal members, and instead begin confiscating weapons, rounding up civilians, and murdering people...so what?! What is death other than a transition anyway? Obviously a paradigm shift with zero bloodshed is ideal, however, unrealistic. Our civilization has been barbaric for 10s of thousands of years (perhaps longer), and I do not see all Cabal members simply giving up without a fight, especially not after planning for such an extensive amount of time. Perhaps one last bloody revolution (although I'm not advocating it!) is what is needed to finally wake up every last human being on the planet. Consider the following rhetorical questions:
Is existence on this planet so important to me that I am willing to give up my sovereignty, have my possessions taken from me, be forcefully removed from my home, watch my loved ones be physically, mentally, or emotionally abused, become enslaved by an uncompassionate group of sociopaths, be monitored against my will 24/7, and/or be frequently tortured, potentially to death?
or
Is my freedom so important to me that I am willing to positively change myself, sacrifice my time, energy, and desires by helping others, assist my family, neighbors, and local community if need be, protect another at the risk of losing my own life, lie, cheat, steal, kill, and/or die for it?
"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!" - Patrick Henry (March 23, 1775), A.S.H. (April 5, 2012)
[Excerpt from another post of mine] To be prepared for change, one must be proactive and anticipate the change. This does not mean to dwell, night and day, on every potential change and all the potential outcomes. This does not mean to constantly live in fear. Everyone must simply acknowledge that a significant change (whatever it is) is on the horizon, prepare themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally for it, and be at peace with it. It is imperative to be adaptable. As Bruce Lee suggested, we must be like water.
"Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee
Now while one is
ACTing, they must also concurrently ask themselves the aforementioned rhetorical questions from the excerpt above. It is not until one arrives at the answers (whatever they are; there is no right answer, just a “free will” choice) and makes peace with them that one will be able to change himself/herself, change others, and eventually change the world.
Additionally, I implied that we should not seek “prophets”. Alie made the point of seeking “guidance”, which I wholeheartedly agree with, in the following reply (post # 252):

I am in agreement that we MUST become extremely strong --- mentally, emotionally, spiritually (the physical? well I'm working on that). So in that regards it is totally up to the individual. When it is implied that we're looking for a "prophet", at least for me, it's true. I AM looking for a guiding light.
When I have brought this up before, there were some on this forum who disagreed with the fact I'm looking to others rather than myself for leadership/guidance.
To me, this is just a matter of semantics. I specifically used the term “prophet”, 1. one who utters divinely inspired revelations, 2. one gifted with more than ordinary spiritual and moral insight , 3. one who foretells future events (
Merriam-Webster). We should not rely on prognostications from those that claim to be holier-than-thou; however, it’s reasonable, at times, to request guidance from a “guide”, 1.a one that leads or directs another's way, b. a person who exhibits and explains points of interest, e. a person who directs another's conduct or course of life (
Merriam-Webster).
Finally, we must all humble ourselves and acknowledge that the only “Truth” that we currently posses is that we do not currently posses the “Truth”. If we are all individual aspects of “God”, then any “Truth”, whether it comes from spirits, angels, extraterrestrials, multidimensional beings, channels, David Wilcock, or Alex Jones, is just another perspective variant, albeit perhaps a better informed one, of the “Truth”. It is important to recognize and accept this fact on our quest to change civilization.
Now for those that are highly critical of the “Wilcock – Drake” story (or any other story for that matter), I understand your skepticism. I feel that a healthy dose of skepticism should be applied to all new information one comes across, and anyone who has read and comprehended the previous portion of this post knows that I recommend everyone actively contribute, to the best of your ability, to changing our collective future.
Some thoughts to ponder:
1. I have seen it stated on various sites that “Drake” is a disinfo agent sent to discredit David Wilcock. Really?! I mean how much credit does Mr. Wilcock have to begin with? He has been wrong about several items before, and he has also affiliated with other members of the alternative community who have been wrong in the past as well. Even if he has maintained shreds of credibility with the alternative community, do you think he has extensive notoriety with mainstream society? I prefer to use his work, along with many others’, to illustrate the dire situation our civilization is in, as opposed to simply using it to show it as the only viable solution.
2. I have also seen it stated that “Drake” is a disinfo agent sent to obfuscate the entire alternative community; thereby, rendering us ineffective once the NWO is ushered in. Now this really makes me laugh! Wow, the egos on some supposedly enlightened beings.
Newsflash folks, the alternative community members who are truly “aware” make up less than 1% of the population. The
US Census Bureau claims that there are now over 7,007,000,000 on the face of the planet. Have you ever seen how many hits alternative media sites get on their videos, articles, blogs, etc.? If they’re lucky they may get a couple of million per item, but usually they get a couple hundred thousand. Now that’s not really putting a dent in the 7+ billion people on the planet, is it? Sorry to burst your bubble.
So what was our plan again anyway? I’m sorry, I’m new here and I didn’t quite catch it. Can someone get me up to speed? Is it to quickly boot up our computers and log into PA to submit one last post, while the NWO agents are breaking down our doors? Then kick and scream, “I didn’t hit submit yet!” while clutching our keyboards as they drag us off to some internment camp? Thought so!
3. It’s also been declared by several posters that there’s no way that any military will intervene on behalf of the citizens. Well given the stats I just presented, you better hope that they do because if every soldier on the entire planet is bought and paid for by the Cabal then we are in some serious trouble. Several hundred thousand rebellious “aware” citizens on any one continent are not going to be a match for several million trained killing machines with the latest tech weapons.
Are we to believe that no one other than the Cabal members is intelligent, cunning, passionate, and resourceful enough to develop secret plans spanning decades? Are there no honorable service men and women left? Weren’t they civilians before enlisting, as well as, after being discharged? Are they not still citizens of their respective country while they are serving? Do service men and women have family, friends, etc. that are not also service men and women, but regular civilians?
Has anyone considered that the vast majority of whistleblowers that have come forth have divulged horrific tales of the Cabal because they could no longer stand withholding the secret information from the public? This sets an overwhelming negative precedent, which indoctrinates and, to some extent, fascinates the alternative community. This negative precedent is a “meme” that allows many individuals to quickly accept any whistleblower’s testimony, who was formerly associated with the Cabal and discusses horrendous acts, as “Truth”, while conversely it encourages individuals to dismiss any positive testimony as impossible. I believe this is taking place now.
Can anyone hark back to when they first learned of the NWO? Did you instantly believe that there was a small group of secret controllers running the planet? How about the potential that the small group may not even be human at all? I know I sure didn’t. It took some time and a massive amount of research for me to fully believe it. Looking back, I would say that I was foolish to so quickly dismiss the notion. I’m saying the same thing now. We are still subject to the Old World paradigm whether we like it or not, and I believe many are now quick to dismiss anything that is not the “gloom and doom” that they have grown so accustomed to hearing.
I’m not guaranteeing that the military, along with police officers, are going to conduct mass arrests because they may not. If they do not, then what are you going to do about it anyway? This is bigger than anyone of us.
4. “Do not wait for a Savior to change things for you” is a common sentiment among many alternative community members. Well, I happen to agree with this sentiment; however, everyone needs to keep in mind that the bulk of service men and women are human beings (I assume). Therefore if the military and police do arrest the Cabal en masse, does this constitute a Savior or just a group of human beings with consciences, compassion, and the means to take action? Do we want other humans on this planet to wake up and become aware of our dire situation, but just not the military or police?
5. There has been extensive debate about this “Wilcock – Drake” topic ad nauseam. I wonder if it’s worth so much time. These events seem to be out of our individual hands. I’ve learned years ago that it’s not worth worrying about things that are completely out of your control. Worrying is a great waste of time and energy, which could otherwise be spent sharing, building, learning, helping, preparing, etc.
Seemingly everyone wants a smooth transition into a new “Golden Age”. Well, I can’t blame anyone because I’d love that too. The problem I see with many peoples expectations is that they are extremely unrealistic at this point.
Too many people want us to be “Creator Gods” right now. They expect us to completely remove any form of government, money, and the dependence on technology right away. Then supposedly we will base our civilization on our spiritual awareness. Sorry, but I don’t see that happening, at least right now. Unless there are galactic waves and/or solar flares that completely alter our DNA or expand our consciousness overnight, I really don’t see this as a realistic possibility.
It has taken millennia to get to this point. So should we simply expect everything to change in a day? It will most likely take decades, and several generations, before we can completely do away with government, money, etc…
Perhaps it’s a good idea to get the bastards out of power first, so that people around the world can have clean water to drink, food to eat, clothes to wear, and shelter to live in before we focus on spiritual growth. Providing these necessities, will actually allow for spiritual growth, but it’s going to be a process that takes time.
“Creator Gods” may very well be our destination, but right now it’s about the journey.
Everyone needs to consider where they stand and what they will do if nothing positive comes to pass. Are you prepared if/when the SHTF? Do you remember the rhetorical questions I posted up above?

If you can answer these questions honestly to yourself, then you’re well on you’re way to being prepared for whatever may come.
I know I am. I have become water; going with the flow, and ready to crash when/if needed.
“Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard,
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come.” - William Shakespeare,
Julius Caesar
Peace,

PS: I thank everyone who made it this far (who actually read my entire post!) for their time and patience. So did I inspire any new thoughts, or am I just a “douche”, or both? :biggrin1:
