Border Crossing at Goondiwindi

Crossing the border between Queensland and New South Wales is like going from one country to another, this is what it must feel like in Europe.

"It's possibly one of the worst governments we've ever seen in Australia's history on the environment"

Kelly O'Shanassy
Australian Conservation Foundation Chief Exectutive

Killarney Gap Road

In the states (NSW) north west the destruction to the environment has been largely hidden from the public with statements that border on lies. This is the state of the nation across the entire country.  Same story in every state and territory. 

The beautiful and precious Pilliga Forest near Narrabri NSW is being attacked and murdered before our eyes and species are dying.  None of this seems to matter to our Environment Minister Greg Hunt who continues to sing the sick swan songs of fossil fuel as he turns away from from the bright light of the sun.  

I am afraid this is the story of a man who took for granted the mother who bore him and sustained him (earth).

Bulga were told lie after lie from Rio Tinto and Government agencies.

The system is broken!  I have said this for many years now, "woe to us if we have to ever test this because we will find out that it really doesn't exist."   I quoted this in 1998 in some of my assignment and assessment writings discussing the system.

It is voting day today in the NSW State Election.  It is clear there are nil to be trusted inside of the dodgy system we are sewn up into.  Independents who stand against mining and the Greens I suppose.  But the system needs to change ideally speaking!

CANBERRA  - The Nations Capital.

The Australian Federal Government is located in Canberra.  It is known as the Australian Capitol Territory.

It is built on  Nygambri Land.  First farm was called Canberry.  Canberra the name is from this.

"I'm here to plant a seed today. A seed that will help inspire you to go forward in your life with enthusiastic hearts and a clear sense of wholeness. The question is. will that seed have a chance to take root or will I be sued by Monsanto?"

Onions in Seed.

They are making laws to make it illegal to collect your own seed,  they say its things like diseases but really it is about control and we all know it.  We have to stop going along with it though.

You can close your eyes to the things you don't want to see, but you can't close your heart to the things you don't want to feel.

~ Johnny Depp ~

 You cannot turn away from the abject destruction of land and water this country is suffering at the present moment.  It is heart breaking to watch other people act like this is all kind of normal.  I feel like I live in a world of aliens.  So many people are just empty and void of feeling.  It is the end for them.

It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.

Parliament House Canberra, and Marnie on her horse front of shop,

One of the reasons the Franklin's rode to Canberra was due to one of those very very poor decisions to mine for Coal Seam Gas and create havoc for all of Australia's aquifers.   This is our water and its woman's business to look after this.

The most perfect political community is one in which the middle class are in control and out number both of the other classes.

Voting in Urunga in the Australian system of government.

I am not sure if I agree with Aristotle here, it may have been alright in the contemporary times in which he lived, today though it is an impotent system and it is a dialectic false choice.

When Freedom is outlawed, only OUTLAWS will be free.

~ Blake Walker ~

This will be considered to be against the law with changes to the Boycottact.

The Franklins are not Outlaws as such but what they are doing, Prime Minister Abbott is trying to outlaw, therefore they will be technically out laws then.

The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it

~  George Orwell ~ 

Drifting out

The further my children deviate from what is really real in this world the further apart we become on the line of life as I call it.  I have children who will be good slaves for the society they are apart of, and happy to be so too still. I suppose this means their father and I did a good job with this as far as society would see it.  I want them to have a sense of freedom with this though and to not lose the wild part that is inside of each of them and that part where their spirit dwells.

For all of the pain I have endured in my lifetime, I must be thankful for the blessings that are laying all around the pain.   I didn't waste my life being a slave to the system.  I know my ideas are different, but it is how it is for me to exist on this physical plane.  I

I am aware from ancient history, the route we have all traveled to get to where we are now at this present time.  It is very clear to see how religion is the basis for our legal systems and governments.  With this fact in mind and knowing clearly what religion has done to culture across the planet, I have no time for their lies anymore.   The sovereign spirit in us is what is rising up against this, this is an exciting time.

Purposely keeping the knowledge of who we really are from humanity for this long has crippled the planet. It is time to take back the balance, the perfect balance that allows energy to be what it is ENERGY! All energy being equal negative and positive energy with which this transform into power for all of our existence.  This is the knowledge which is setting the planet free from the tyranny of the economic slavery we are burdened with in this society fueled by abject greed and stupidity.

Predatory Leadership is the consequence, by one’s efforts, policies or agendas, of their mental, emotional and subconscious investment into attaining their goals, openly or covertly, by any means, with complete disregard or concern for the impact of their actions upon others.

~ Matt Kramer ~ 

No wonder I speak out against this governing process that we live under.  I recognise and smelll predators a mile off being the hyper-vigilant I am.   This hypervigilance is due to past experiences with predators and double speak or double talk as some know this as.   I am very saddened by the state of our government process favoring big business over ordinary people.  

I never did like being governed but if we have to have this governing process then at least it must be fair and equitable to all.  This  situation in Australia is no longer an even playing field.  It is a corrupt and economically run state of affairs.  We are living in a nanny state now.  Day after day more legislation arrives shutting humans down from being human.

When those that do not care about the situation are  suddenly faced with this in a personal manner and it effects their lives or the lives of their families, then, and only then will they get interested in the reality of the political situation we are all facing in Australia with the election looming in early September 2013.  It is a daunting prospect to have any of them as leaders.

"We are shaped by what we do, not by who we are."

 ~ A.D. Williams ~

 

I am a government kid still and that keeps dogging me all of the time.  I get discriminated against  because of this.  I have felt this many times.  When in a group and talking about childhood experiences I want to tell others it was freaking hell.  Now I want help!  I could not ask for help then,  I let it all happen to me.

These days I shape it a little better.  Proof of this is the kinds of things I do.  The things I love.  The study that I do each day to stay ahead of myself.  Believe me is that hard too.  My mind has so much it wants to know.  Is it my mind or is my heart leading me on a the journey.  Each time I learn a new skill I feel as though  I just climbed a mountain.  That is not a bad feeling for anyone to experience.

Emasse this Gas Madness

 

Emasse this Gas Madness
Fighting Coal Seam Gas
All their rosey forecasts
Tara ain't no gasoline alley
Get with the program and tally
Sitting under a sally wattle
With a water bottle that cant be drunk ..
and pipes trucked in and fully sunk..
The smell is rank
and there's death in alla the water tanks ..
Who is it now,  I was supposed to thank?

Oh yeah, thanks Julia with the red red hair..
We all knew you was lying
and we knew you never cared.
Your impaired ..
coz motherhood scared you
and you never dared..
You just ok'd another disgrace down at LEARD..
Nah I'm straight
 I got this fully squared
coz you're bitch polly who played switch dolly..
and I'm not gonna be your soft molly!
I wanna shut you down like the Ford shop trolley..

Got me a deep deep frown
As deep as the holes you left in my mothers ground 
It's deep and its hell spreading round
And down here on the ground
Where the people are told to shut up 

and Don't make a sound

You betcha I will not be drowned
by this bullshit you
designed to confound

I will still come up for air ....
wait coz we will be watching you're despair
yeah yeah ..
I think that would be fairly fair
considering the lands
and all of this you've murdered
and impaired
Leaving us Zero hope of ever being repaired.

We live in interesting times The Chinese curse has come to pass.

Written by Atalanta Lloyd-Haines ( https://www.facebook.com/atalanta73)

We live in interesting times
The Chinese curse has come to pass.
The state has a stranglehold,
are we a democracy?
Where our choice is between the far right and the extreme far right
Where anyone dissenting is labelled a lefty extremist?
And in jeopardy of being jailed as a terrorist.
It's a web of deception pointing us in a particular direction.
Just watch the media -
hooking us on big pharma (it all starts with Panadol)
and out-of-control consumption,
Give me Anarchism
Voluntary co-operation
freedom from the oppression
of Government and big business.
A shift in perspective from
what we have
A Welfare state
with the subsequent restriction of rights
in exchange for SOCIAL SECURITY
What is social security really?

Am I so radical really?
Wanting to be free of capitalism, fascism and all the other isms...
Govern/mentality, all of them
Pushing “regimes of truth” that are
most bloody.
Who decided that the people require guidance, and for what purpose?
War? Workers for industry?
So some may be wealthy beyond measure
Whilst the rest starve
So many laws
So little purpose
Except to control
A most bloody and avaricious regime of truth
consumes the planet
All the isms at play now bow
to the God of them – Capitalism
They make me sick
these excuses for government -
doing the bidding of big business
Who are the true rulers and dictators
Progress, industry, consumption and greed
Just look at the gas field's steadily making
land uninhabitable
State and Federal government
allowing the interests of
profit and petrol and progress
over the health of the land
and therefore all living things...
Goodbye drinking water
Good governance be damned
Its all good on paper
A stripped back public service
privatization of public assets
Yet, without the nicety of
steering rather than rowing

Atalanta is studying at the moment and as a response to some of her study she wrote this.  I loved the writing because it is real and from the heart.  I am so pleased she is studying to become an effective teacher in the community!
So many protest sites all over Australia at the moment.  There is protesting against Fracking , Roxby Downs and the Gas Hub in the Kimberly  and up near Broome they are building a 2klm long jetty to ship the GAS out.  The place in the Kimberly is the home of the Killer Whale. This is the totem too.  The whale will rise up in the ocean and slap its tail down so hard none of us will survive. 
The Sleeping Lizards belly is being gouged out.  Inside of his body are a rainbow of  poisons to kill the miners.  Please go home and leave the lizard alone.  Honestly it will not be worth it to any of us.

 THE GATES OF HELL

Sleeping underneath the ground there is an old lizard Kalta the sleepy lizard. 

BHP is mining right into that Lizard's body.

BHP ARE THE BIGGEST LIARS OF ALL

From the BHP Billiton website: 

"Our Uranium business currently comprises the world-class uranium and copper deposit at Olympic Dam in South Australia. In addition to copper and uranium Olympic Dam also contains significant quantities of gold and silver. Olympic Dam is the world's largest uranium deposit and fourth largest copper deposit. At Olympic Dam we mine, process, smelt and refine the ore to final products. Specifically, we deliver uranium oxide concentrate to utility customers exclusively for the generation of electricity in civil nuclear reactors."

 BHP last night were caught dumping in the Georges River.  They were fined but it is a drop in the ocean to them and today they are laughing about it and  planning how not to get caught. 

We Australians need to stand side by side the ones there in various protest sites currently in Australia, its hit em hard and hit em big.. this is the attitude of the government now.  They have sites to protest EVERYWHERE so this will confuse some of the ordinary people who want to help but become confused.  Another dirtly low tactic of  the Australian piece of shit Government.

Get a hold of this because the traditional owners of this land and the land up near Broom and down on the Headland all need our help.  One tribe of rainbow colored people.  We love the land and we understand your plight. Help the Sleepy Lizard.  Help these people not get swallowed up!

THOUGHTS and WORDS

SAM 7535 - Painted sky, a photo by Images @ Melonpopzdropz on Flickr.

 SUBVERSIVENESS and SEDITION?   Thoughts are always subversive and words could always be termed seditious.

Only people who do not think are not subversive. Thinking is a crime. Jesus is crucified, Socrates is poisoned, Gautam Buddha is stoned. These people have not harmed anybody. They were the most loving, most compassionate human beings possible – but they committed a crime, and the crime’s name is thinking.

No society wants any of its members to think.
Thinking is dangerous.

The society wants robots who simply do whatever is told to them, who cannot say no – that is impossible for them. They are machines.

It is not accidental that every developed society is replacing man by machines. Machines are obedient, never subversive. Have you ever heard of any machine being a revolutionary or a rebel?
It has not happened up to now that we had to crucify a machine.

I am not a machine.

And there is no way of thinking, other than being subversive.
- Osho
