Azadi: The Separatist Movements
You may have heard about the Israel-Palestinian conflict, or the Kashmiri people calling for their freedom. Several more sizable protests in Catalonia. Alternatively, the recent rise in hostilities between China and Taiwan. The issue involving Russia and Ukraine is also relevant here. A significant portion of the population wants to be cut off from the larger country's main territory, which is something that is common in these cases. Let's learn why it is so and how.

Mother Earth's Flower Vs Devil's Lettuce
I was once jealous of my, one day to be, ex-husband after he got his medicinal marijuana card. It was hard for me to fathom being able to walk into a store to purchase marijuana, almost as easily as milk and bread. How easy it has become!

Thinking about an American Rennaisance
I do not deny that I am a big fan of money. I do not deny that I have envied those who made or saved or inherited more money than me. I do not deny that I think money is the safest form of power that humans can trade with. Money gets a bad rap most of the time. Even religious fanatics have put down money at some point when their faith was tested or they were at some spiritual crossroad. Some vagabonds don't hold on to their identity or association with money. They will wander freely like no-name beggars and they prefer that lifestyle. I never wanted to be anyone but me fully knowing that I am born from money and was raised with all the notions of a society of economy. I watched many westerns where the cowboys and indians would fight for land or women in some terratorial battle. I've seen films and shows that have depicted the theme of "this town's not big enough for the both of us" or some John Wayne type Sherrif taking over and kicking out the trouble-makers. These are not just silly movies to me. They represent American civilization in symbolic and spiritual ways and they have touched my soul furthering my belief that a money-less civilization is not one that I comprehend.

Performances
In former U.S. President Reagan, there are three special phenomena. The first special phenomenon: Reagan was an extremely punctual person. He would enter his office every morning with a prepared schedule for the day on his desk, and he would take that schedule with him, item by item, and perform his presidential tasks according to it. Staffers recall that he rarely had a problem with the schedule, much less complained about it or changed it. He wouldn't say, "Why am I seeing this guy?" Nor would he say, "Why am I seeing this guy?" nor would he say, "Can't this boring ceremony take so long?" Nor would he say, "How can we finish talking about such an important matter in an hour?"
