The intense responsibility of our time and place in world history:
Relating to governance and the modern societal systems and organization, we simple folk are like the teen child of an extreme alcoholic or addict.
Our choice is to stand up into the maturity and responsibility we are capable of and lead our family whenever needed. Or we go from broken to emotional ruin and try to rebuild from the ashes when it is all over. The fight is not rational.
We simple folk are victims because we fail to take responsibility for our lives, our communities, and our local resource and societal stewardship. In that failure we may cry foul quite accurately, but to who? We may fight, but to what ends? Instead we must build the standing of our own legitimacy while that of the current system wanes.
We build our capacity and our ability locally, then, we simple folk slowly take the reigns of our present and future little by little until we have acquired a livable level of autonomy again and a local control of our local resources and society.
We don’t try to do it in the old way and we don’t try to do it in a new way. We don’t try to do it as a generation. We do it cohesively multi generationally, and wisely.

I don't believe in destroying what is here today. I believe in building a future that outperforms and solved inadequacies and failures of present and the past.
My driving intent and focus goes to empower the agrarian reality. I dream of and believe in the need for agrarian renaissance.
Agrarians are those rooted and sustained by the local landscape and community.
I believe that through agrarian success, the world can see a major shift in the human inflicted global ecological effect. We can see a symbiotic future that embraces, feeds on, and promotes ecological and cultural diversity. We can see people, through the natural living of their lives, effecting a rapidly regenerating global environment and reversal of longstanding global desertification.
Since we can, we should. Social engineering? well kind of, yeah. It is intelligent strategic paradigm development. Our civilizational paradigm tends to orient any and all diverse cultures to effect environmental harm/footprint. Therefore, we need to reorient the paradigm to naturally effect regenerative and symbiotic relationships with nature instead.
Agrarian society is in free fall as the paradigm orients cultures and societies around global financial economy with built in rewards and penalties (remember agrarian by definition is place and community oriented).
I believe it is not only possible but crucial to resuscitate and accentuate the infrastructure for global agrarianism and to do it in such a way as to enable renaissance/flowering.
That is my life's work, my passion, and what I live for and would be happy to die for any day of the week. This blog is my rough and in many instances unedited writings on the subject. These are not refined articles. They are a semi-formal journaling to log ideas I find important.
