Thus Nature means Essence as well as the birds, bees and banana trees.

Freedom begins at home, within us, not in the DC politicians and their owners, the corporations. If we want freedom, we need to stop escaping from it, leaving our responsibility to our young people, the Man, and the voting machine once every four years. We must cast our vote according to our own heart, then get our backsides outside and within our homes while helping our communities to make change happen.

We cannot, repeat, cannot continue to escape our freedom by not being active in our world and our communities. Yapping about politicians and corporations are not going to cut it. We need to get off our seats and do the work ourselves. No politician is going to save us, especially those whose eyes are on the Powers That Be manifesting as corporate families like the Rothchilds, Koch Brothers, and Donald Trump.

"How do we get past our conditioning, Burl"? "Good God, it's engrained in us." So, take sandpaper and sand away the grains. Then begin anew.

But this speaks to our being responsible, Burl! Yes, I respond. We are all "responsible" in both senses of the word. We have been some part of all that has wrong, and we must become initiators of all that must henceforth go right.

When you change and proclaim your freedom, the world will come along. Be a good saleswoman or man! Get people into their heart level. More importantly, get out of your own head and into your heart. Sex is more pleasurable too when you are at that level of being. As Karla Bonoff wrote in her song, "Lose Again:" "Well the heart calls, and the mind obeys!" Such is the "Heart Intelligence."

Listen to this song, written by Karla Bonoff and sung by Linda Ronstandt. Oh, the Blues! In listening to the song, expect to become seriously depressed even if you are on Prozac.
