The other day, I thought, what would I put in a personal ad? Nothing. No one on earth is like me or could be attracted to me that I could possibly meet on the internet - I am just too weird now.
I am an anarchist - I believe in freedom and inner monarchy which equals external anarchy… Know thyself. I was not always like this - in fact I was extremely self-centered early in life, but a series of events brought me to willingness to find another way and I did. The current "election" fraud, which started in 2001 (for me) with 911 tipped me over the edge of libertarianism and into true freedom, sovereignty.
I like freedom and I try to treat my fellow beings without harm AND live on the grid - which is very difficult. But I am conscious and that is extremely painful. It's ok to be in pain - it's real.
I don't buy new clothes - I go to the thrift store, I don't dye my hair, I try to eat organic as much as possible but who the hell knows what that means unless I get eggs from my friend's chickens - which I do… I am still eating meat and I try to find local humanely raised and butchered meat - all on a tight budget. I am beginning to move toward becoming a vegetarian now. It no longer seems possible to continue to be a non-participant in the system and continue as a meat eater. I cannot stand the suffering of our fellow beings.
I work 3 days a week at a big box store - which is antithetical to my beliefs but it has to be done at the moment - and I am living with a guy who I found living on the street who asked me for help - and I was actually able to help him!
That is the biggest experience of my life so far - the biggest experience as an artist - being used by the Creator to create a new life for a person who was thrown out - and since I make art from found materials, it was parallel.
That I was actually able to meet a homeless man and through a series events find us both a home. I got to be a channel for that to happen. What a blessing! My work at corp-america has to do with providing him and me with good food, clothing and gas for us to get to where we need to go for our support. Before that I was living as an artist on a piece of dental floss -
We met through mutual friends when I was staying out in Northern CA in 2013. He was definitely the wildest person I had ever met and he basically followed me home. I could not let him in because the people I was renting from said NO! which really blew my mind - it used to be that people in this circumstance would offer even a backyard to tent in - but not anymore - at least not in the NoCal greedfest.
- so I let him sleep in my car, while I continued to pray for direction on what to do. I was guided to return to Denver where we live now and he was put into the VA system and eventually we got housing together. Ever since then - everything has gone well for me - I believe it is because I helped a guy who needed my help - that I was put in great favor by the Creator. The principle of Cause and Effect was really activated by this action - not by any other silly new age attempts to "manifest" and "attract" things I wanted - this action put me in alignment with Natural Law - do unto others as you would have others do unto you -
My artwork - I am currently using crushed cans that I find on the street combined with decoupage of my own drawings, and oil paint on found wood... I can't figure out how to post images here yet... http://joannawhitney.weebly.com/
Great stuff mate, you did an amazing thing. May all your dreams and desires come true.
I share it so that others might also do the same thing... blessings to you as well.
