I was going to post some pictures of uniquely colored Irises but I could not get Blooger to download the pics. So I decided to try those another day and pick a different moment to share.
Thrive or Making Sense of the 60's
I watched the documentary "Thrive" and enjoyed the questions asked and the process followed to get the answers. The first question was "Why is humanity not thriving?" He takes you on a scientific journey that allows you to view the world with a more energetic and expansive view. He was often surprised and in a bit of disbelief at the answers he was finding and where the trail led him too.
What surprised me most was my familiarity and belief of what he was talking about regarding the big money families. I watched a video years ago called "Making Sense of the 60's" in which one of the Rockefellers was clear in their desire to keep woman in the workforce after WWII and to have children in a public school system where they can teach them to be consumers. I don't recall the conclusion but I found it on youtube and am going to watch it again. What I liked about Thrive is how it ended by giving us ideas of how we can begin to make changes in our own lives that may alter what the big money wants to occur. We can choose not to be a part of it. Making sense of the 60's talks about the counter culture of the hippies and what occurred in the 50's that would have led to the "Hippie Generation"! As I said I have not seen it in quite a few years and will watch it again to see what I saw before and how it may relate to what I saw in Thrive.
Thrive was an interesting documentary and I liked the way it got me thinking about how I live my life and if there are changes I want to make in how I do some things. I was glad to see that one of the things I've done recently was to change my checking account from one of the big banks to a local credit union. It's one small step in not supporting what the 1% hope to accomplish.
If you haven't seen Thrive I strongly recommend it. He is a scientist not a conspiracy theorist. Then if your motivated and interested you can find Making Sense of the Sixties on youtube. It is a seven part series on youtube, was a full documentary (I think) on PBS.
My Wonder Filled Moment was thinking about the power and strength each one of us has to take command of our lives. We need not be the victims of an oppressive minority who have the power and influence the decisions. We are the ones with the true power, we just need to believe it and band together.
