We live in an increasingly complex society that at times is baffling and confusing, at least it is for me and might be for you as well, the pace at times is staggering and as i have grown older i cant seem to really keep up and truth be told i find i really don't want to keep up, my give a damn broke and i don't want to fix it
The way out,of the trap , for me are the ancient skill sets as in Stone age skills creating an awareness for me that i never knew before ,suddenly you are in charge of owning yourself . As i continue to explore the prehistoric skill sets that lead to a completeness of understanding what breaking free really means in my life ,shaking off the constrictions of the modern ways and as understanding dawns on me that i do not need what our modern life says i do. Being dictated to all my life from the time i was a little boy by teachers who were just doing what they were taught a monkey say monkey do society.
We are forced to go to school and in reality we are still just little wild creatures and they want to chain us to a desk , don't move sit there until we tell you you can go . Training us to be adults and spend the rest of our lives tied to a desk or a machine... being robbed of our lives by a job or a career , you find that the so called retirement , the well known golden years ,for the most part is crap . One a lot of of folks never live long enough to be in the golden years or if they do its only a very short retirement bye bye ...Cant tell you how many i have known who never made the golden years work worth a damn and most older folks i talk with feel they were tricked by the system , so something is broke.
Rather than be owned by a job , own yourself , we all know the phrase 'wage slave' and we are sucked into it because we were trained from early childhood that this the what we should do . Too be a so called success you have to make so much money etc and gag so forth . My question is ah but are you successful as a person ? I feel the prehistoric can help you with a feeling you have never known in your life , a freedom that yes i can make fire with two sticks is empowering , being able to ID wild edible plants and how to prepare them so you can eat ,trapping wild critters called making meat taking only what you need no waste , building a shelter your own self , and many other skills . Always thanking the plant and the critter for feeding you .
Be a success as a person , sorry this turned into somewhat of a rant oh wait not sorry ...
