Okay, so there was a story that I read recently where a couple of young women who went hiking in a jungle did not realize that the public trail ended and they had begun down the path the locals used.

These young women were unfamiliar with it, and the story goes that they “got lost and lasted about a week before they ran out of food…”

The story was told with pictures taken from their cameras and selfies.

So I look at the pictures, and as the storyteller says they passed away because they ran out of food…

…I see that they are SURROUNDED by plants!!  Which are EDIBLE!!  smh (shake my head)

You cannot make this stuff up.  They were surrounded by food and should have been able to survive by eating the plants around them.  Good Grief.

On that note, I found a great video on planting your own food from the scraps of grocery bought food.  I would normally put the scraps in a compost pile.  I used to have a compost bin at my house, and it is one of the things I miss daily.  It looked like this one at Gardener’s Supply.  It was well-built with a heavy lid that stayed put during rough storms or curious raccoons, by evidence of their muddy paw prints all over the top.   Little stinkers never could figure out how to get inside it. Heh.

I looooved his suggestion of cutting off the carrot tops and planting them…you won’t get carrots, but you will get wonderful leafy greens from the tops!  This year, when I was in California and trying to make it through a week of in-between paychecks, I looked at my tub of soil (story to follow) and though, why aren’t you eating the green tops of the cantaloupe plants??

Okay, so I have always missed my tiny garden at my house and the dreams I had of making the acre of ground into more food production with fruit and nut trees, plants, and a nice walking path to boot.  Organically, as the Creator intended.

When I got my job, I wanted to move towards more environmentally positive (such as buying a horse and carriage), and trying to keep within the budget I had adopted while on food stamps.  I purchased a galvanized steel tub (that one would, in old days, use as a wash tub) and put dirt from the garden in it.  I wanted to have a compost bin, but my sis was not in favor of it, so I thought why not a worm composting bin inside.  She still was not thrilled with that, insisting it have a lid of foil (with air holes) in case they tried to make an escape.  Heh…visions of worms making mad dashes from there cracks me up.

So okay at least I got my composting bin with worms!  I could put food scraps in there to feed them and they would in turn leave wonderful fertilizer in there for plants.  It was so beneficial that plants started to pop up from the food scraps and cantaloupe seeds.

It was from these plants that I thought I could grow more food.  And as those young women must have felt when they were lost in the jungle, I looked at those cantaloupe plants in my tub inside the truck in California**…and thought, you dummy, you have food right there!  So even though it was not enough to sustain me entirely, it sure helped with giving me leafy greens while getting a meal from the very kind gas station owners.  They literally restored my faith in the world.  Not everyone is mean towards the poor and the different.

Here is my own personal environmental journey….every step is a conscious question of what am I doing that could be done in a more positive way?  It didn’t happen all at once, but after a growing awareness that the earth was suffering and we were in deep trouble…

**My own thoughts on why California is being attacked…and yes, it IS being attacked by weather modification and Directed Energy (read anything by native Californians — they are saying that the fires all erupted at night, out of nowhere.  And from what I saw while there in August, the northern part of the state was GREEN, not dry and arid like the lower part of the state, so that flies in the face of the media saying the trees were dry, making it easy to start a fire, blaming forest mismanagement.  This is BLATANTLY FALSE.   On the contrary, it appears the forests were being managed well.  They looked green and healthy.

So why is California being attacked?  My guess is because California is a very spiritual place.  There are mountains everywhere.  You see the Creator’s handiwork everywhere.  This is a spiritual war we are in, and if the evil ones can destroy our connection to the Creator by destroying the earth, and especially the more spiritual places, such as satan had done with cutting down the Tree of Life (the Tower) in Wyoming…it doesn’t take a lot to realize why they are going after California…an entire state that is spiritual.

I’m not the only one who feels that way as there are several videos on youtube where sacred places are being destroyed at an alarming rate.

Walmart has a nasty scheme going on where they build their stores over cemeteries, be it white folks, black folks, native folks, doesn’t matter…then a few years down the road, when they’ve sucked a town dry of any independent store owners, they abandoned the store.  Given that the Waltons don’t need any more money, I’m leaning towards them deliberately destroying these sacred sites.

Anyone wanna bet that the walmart built near the Mexican Pyramid has underground tunnels to the Pyramid?  Given that Hillary Clinton was a partner in the law firm that represented the Waltons, it is quite possible that the Waltons are satanists, too, although I don’t have anything to back that up, other than they are greedy and they were caught taking out “dead peasant insurance” on their employees, who died young.  If that is so, underground tunnels to the Pyramid would make sense…easier to make human sacrifices away from the eyes of the good hearts who would stop it.
