Well I woke up today to the dollar going down and gold and silver going up. I see the collapse coming soon, and when it hits it will hit with a vengeance. For to long people have hot paid any attention to the writing on the wall. And now the same people are going to get a wake up call they will never forget. I plan for the collapse and stock up on food, water, and medical supplies, but many don't and don't want to hear about it. So I stopped talking to them about the collapse. I do still talk about it a little at work but not as as much as before. I now wait till someone brings it up first. And then I will talk about how I feel and say what needs to be said. I feel that the collapse is near and our time is short, so you need to stock up and if you are getting ready for the collapse then you need to kick it into hing gear. I think the collapse will hit within the next 30-180 days. It may wait till after the new year but I think the bad shopping season will bring on the down fall. Some people don't have the money to pay for the rent, lights and other bills so many people will for-go the bills to buy the kids toy's for Christmas and this will be a spark to start the fire. My friends get yourself ready and stock up on items you need to survive because our time is short and evil is just over the hill and night is coming.
We've spent the past 2 days preparing in one way or another. We canned pears and apple butter yesterday. Today we ran down some more plastic buckets for dry goods. Tomorrow we'll be freezing carrots and planting the berry vines that arrived this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteAnd also important, we worked on our connections! It's good to connect with local, like-minded folk:
One older couple brought over some fresh goat meat to sample, and showed us how to identify young roosters.
A local orchard owner has offered me several bushels of apples in exchange for some dried apples...what a deal!
A dear friend I met through Craigslist (of all places!) has begun working on her food stores. She's also taken up gardening and is learning to can. The best part is she and I are in the same season of life: early 30's, young children, very little disposable income.
Collapse may be just around the corner, but life is still good.
It seems that the closer we get to the collapse the less people what to hear the truth. It is like looking at the sun and saying I don't believe it is shinning. Just because you say you don't believe doesn't change the fact that it is shinning. And so goes America!
ReplyDeleteKeep your stores high and your powder dry.
I simply don't understand the mindset of people who literally refuse to prep. As Thomas alluded to, they refuse to see what's happening all around us.
ReplyDeleteI've also stopped "preaching," but very willingly give my outlook on things when asked. I tell them, "What is the worst that can happen if things don't collapse? You'll have gobs of food that you can either eat or give to charity!" Sure is better than being left empty handed...
Most just nod, and put their heads back in the sand.
If people can't see the signs all around them for what they are, forget about them. They are grasshoppers. When the winter comes, and it WILL come, they will come to you, begging for your help. Their big shiny SUV, 54" plasma, and Armani suits will to little to feed them. They will watch their children slowly starve and wish they had taken YOUR warnings and advice seriously. But, when winter comes, they will find no help from the ants, safely burrowed away with the preps they have worked all summer for. Good luck to them...
ReplyDeleteSorry to sound so morbid, but I have little patience for people who refuse to take their blinders off.
I like Andrea's program and Adam's thinking. We have done what we can and we are still preaching the gospel when called upon. But to hell with talking to people who don't get it. It is such a waste of precious time!
