Is the Dream Really a Nightmare?

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been doing some research. I wanted to change the direction of my writing, its focus. Well, I've been led in a certain direction, and I can't turn back now. My conscience won't let me.

You may or may not know that I don't watch much television. Well, unless there is a storm coming or something of that nature. I quit watching "news media" television after September 11, 2001 because it struck me that WTC 7 collapsed, but no plane ever hit that building. And it collapsed in the afternoon. If you want to know more, just use google. It's all there. But you won't see it on the television. The channel I like to call FauxNewsChannel is, in my opinion, one of the biggest news network lie machines ever invented. Not to mention the tabloid press.

It's time we wake up. Before it's too late.

Look at the world around us. Look at what is going on. Is there any ring of truth? Those who have eyes to see, and ears to hear.....they will see the truth, and recognize the illusions. And they will hear the difference between the truth and the lies.

The ones who speak truth are systematically taken out of the picture. Their voices are silenced. THINK about it. Martin Luther King, John Lennon, JFK, Robert Kennedy. The list goes on and on. And it's not just activists, or politicians. Artists are taken out of the picture, too. Writers, musicians, artists of all kinds.

THINK about that one for just a minute. Think of all the musicians we have lost. What was their message? Did their message change over time? If it did, what was the result when they stopped sending the message the record companies wanted them to send? What happened to them when they started using their art for a bigger, global message? A message of LOVE? Michael Jackson changed his message, and look what happened to him. The media vilified him and convicted him in the Court of Public Opinion, then crucified him, damaging his career irreparably.

Just THINK for one minute what we lost because of what the media did to Michael Jackson. The art, the music, the films we could have enjoyed for the rest of our lifetimes, and the generations to come. The media robbed humanity of gifts Michael Jackson could have given us, gifts we could have used to help heal the human race and the planet it exists upon.

Who controls the media? Who decided what we see, what we know, what we won't see and will never know? What is your definition of TRUTH? What you see or hear? Or is your definition of truth decided AFTER you have read all the facts, and not just opinions?

Take this in, digest it. THINK about it. For your sake, and the sake of your children. For the sake of the world. Our world.

So what do we do? We use our talents to heal the world.

When will it end?
