What If We Woke Up Tomorrow And Everything Changed?

What if we woke up tomorrow and all our banks were closed and our money was worthless? How would be get food and the things we need to survive? Would our water and electricity work? Would we still be able to get on the internet and use our cell phones? Would we still go to our jobs? Would we still try to pay our bills?

We have been told our world would erupt into chaos, that without the rules and laws and authorities we follow we would become unthinking animals who fight for existence. It's all about survival of the fittest! Every apocalyptic movie I've seen or book I've read seems to say as much.

Is that true? Would we use our guns to fight for food and water and territory? Or would we find ways for ourselves and our fellow beings to survive?

The fear and chaos scenario has been provided to us by the powers that be so that we will not be tempted to stray from their system. If we believe ending something will not turn out well, we will be unlikely to let it happen. That's why we allowed the bankers to get away with bailouts here in the United States. We were told those businesses were "too big to fail"--that ALL of our jobs and businesses were on the line if these particular businesses went belly up. Lies, lies, and more lies!!! We don't need to bail out these big businesses any more than Europeans need to live under "austerity". (Ironically, the money in both scenarios goes to the same place--the banks!!!)

The time is quickly approaching where we will face a choice: survival or destruction. We can all decide to work together and live together, or we can choose to allow those apocalyptic scenarios play out and fight for survival.

Choosing survival may not be easy at first. The material things we all currently have access to may not be as easy to come by. Here in the US, we may not even be able to obtain things like coffee as we don't directly produce it in this country and will need to negotiate trade deals with other countries to get them.

Understand that our survival will require new ways of thinking!!! Do the bankers still own everything? (My personal thoughts along those lines are that Mother Earth provides her resources freely for those on the planet. Shouldn't everyone be able to benefit from them instead of just a few?) How can we all have what we need? What is the worth of each soul?

We have the ability to work together to survive. Along the way, we may just come to the understandings we need to not only survive but thrive! The choice is ours!!!
