I prefer peace. But if trouble must come, let it come in my time, so that my children can live in peace.
Thomas Paine





There is a sublime formula I keep close to my heart. It changes from time to time, but I find its essence persists. Love > Conscience > Freedom > Peace. The formula has been simplified so it doesn’t account for the dynamism contained therein. It’s best imagined as a sphere.

Naturally, my formula does not embrace as of late the global peddling of germaphobia / agoraphobia, antisocial behaviour, the denial of human rights, contrived economic ruin, and other abominations promoted to “keep others safe”.

To be sure, I will refrain from offering another commentary on an allegedly pathogenic microorganism or the deranged fallout of its benign infectiousness. Instead, as the deceivers look for new recruits as they always do, those of us who remain free shall bear the eternal mission of Peace. And as the aforementioned formula indicates, Peace relies on Freedom, Conscience, and Love. Going forward, these features of life shall be my focus, not the bones of a dying society and its foul sideshows.

I challenge people to cultivate these qualities now and forever and to stop listening to information merchants. True peace cannot be disturbed. True love absorbs fear and expels it. True conscience cannot be corrupted. True freedom allows life to prosper. Whereas false peace gives way to war and slavery. False love begets sadism, masochism. False conscience is a broken moral compass. False freedom is bondage.

What will you do in these times? Everything is changing. You are changing. I and I change. The potential to step into one’s power is meteoric. Ab Ordo Chao. Order out of Chaos. There are no rules! Didn’t you get the memo? One simply adopts principles, the quality of which determines one’s standard of living, and exercises them. How do you exercise your principles? Do you know how to?

I have a child now, so the past, present, and future all coexist in a tidy manner before my eyes these days. This makes clarity easy! I don’t know what else to say. Type is cheap. Love > Conscience > Freedom > Peace will prevail now and forevermore.
