SPECIAL THOUGHTS OF LIFE AND TRUTH from the voice of the “Common Man” and the poor and forgotten.

Forgotten truth about Early Christianity: Acts 4. They shared and supported one another financially and with food and with shelter in a hostile economic system to Christians. They faced daily persecution and were constantly living SEPARATELY from the culture of this world.

I (me, catsintexas) go to antique shops to "borrow" other people's memories, insert myself into wishes that I had lived during then and try to imagine life in a family during the 40s, 50s. I love nostalgia, and I also remember the songs and music I enjoyed with my mom when I was very young during the sixties. She had these 45's of Broadway musicals and pop music and big band music from the 40s and 50s!

Most of us here, agree that those who have not lived in a home, lack good memories of growing up, lack memories of a good neighborhood and community life events. Having some collectibles and “memory pieces” or heirlooms brings joy and dignity. People with an apartment know that it is not really their “home”. A few of us also believe a home is where you have decorations on the curtains, small art pieces of ceramic or glass on windowsills, and on mantelpiece. There should be photos of loved ones, and a few decorative ceramic objects along the house. It should also have paintings that have a message or speak to the observer. This is why I, luke, (catsintexas)  love going to “antique” shops or knick knack collectible shops in Leesburg.

Why do we tolerate Home Owner “Ass”ociations, where you are not allowed to have Victory gardens, or paint your home as you want? Why? Just because the other people on the block want you to conform, or not have a better value house than theirs? Then why don’t they build and improve it up, or decorate it? Why should we be penalized for reducing the value of their home just because we take care of our home and improve it!? The Realtors in this country have done us a successful snow job on us.  Why must their be conformitism just to protect somebody else's profits?  So what if others' homes in price go down?  So what?!

 They and the developers have convinced us that conforming and boring artwork redundancy on houses on a street are in our best economic interest. No competition. If there house value is brought down by our house’s value that is there problem and not ours! It is they who are fearful of not making money or of competition, so they don’t allow us to decorate or repaint our houses as we want. WE ARE ALSO NOT ALLOWED owning our own land, in some places. To do that, you have to buy property wayyy out there in the country.

True wealth, is freedom from debts, freedom of mobility, and freedom of time constraints. That is true wealth. The best jobs are the ones where you are self employed. But the government makes it hard for you to have this, now.

People should not be able to force laws on us and take away our freedoms just because they are offended by what we say, believe or do. Rome and Greece had more of an open minded culture, society and free thought that could lead to good spiritual truths. Money, big businesses and marketplace back then, did NOT control peoples’ speech or beliefs, or cultures. Thankfully, big corporations and laws protecting them did not exist back then.
To limit power is to protect civilization. It is not only about protecting individual’s rights but making power healthier. Unless you can guarantee that a business or government will have a good moral and honor code, do not let them have a lot of power. History proves this!
