I am but a Witness

It’s 5 am this ordinary Thursday morning here in the backwoods of Michigans Upper Peninsula. No daylight yet penetrates the kitchen window as I make my way over to the coffee maker and hit the button. A piercing green eye awakens the room with just enough light I’m able to find my way around. I stop for a moment and gaze out the window over the sink. The northern sky is bright with a glowing radiance from the sun slapping his powerful waves towards earth. A flash of brilliance momentarily lights the whole sky with spotlight of color so powerful it fills my kitchen with it’s glow, then just as quickly fades away. What a show!  

 I notice an ambient orange glow from the living room from the remnants of last night warming fire. I make my way to the woodstove and poke it disturbing the glowing coals. Time for another log. Almost immediately it bursts into flames creating a comforting warmth. The outdoor temperature is 17 degrees yet this April morning. A couple of years ago our old kitty would have been curled up on the stone pad the woodstove stands on. It was cold, crisp mornings such as these the warmth gave comfort to her 22 year old achy body. I guess you could say it was her kitty sauna.

I finish my morning chores, time for a cup of coffee. A gray daylight hangs thick,foggy clouds just above the tree tops relieving the northern light dance of its overnight show. Sometime during the night a thin layer of icy snow fell covering the stubby brown grass. It will be a few more weeks before things begin turning green in this peninsula of Michigan.

As I was finishing my outdoor chores last night a pair of Sand Hill cranes dropped out of the sky into my yard. These huge birds are solitary and independent with a wingspan of what seemed like at least 10 feet. If I’m not mistaken they mate for life. I was totally amazed, in awe actually, as I watch the deliberate control of the air beneath their massive wings giving them a perfectly safe landing.

Making our local news was a big bird on the loose. A driver in another town videoed an Emu making a mad dash along the shoulder of a highway in Skandia. Now that would have been a strange sight in itself, an Australian bird in the cold U.P.? Turns out the Emu jumped a fence from a farm keeping 3 Emus as pets. The huge flightless bird had turned around and was heading home when he was being videoed. From what I heard the sheriff arrested the escapee and safely returned him to his owner. No handcuffs were used and no tickets were issued. Emu takes unauthorized jaunt

Speaking of birds and all of nature for that matter. Nature is the central theme in a book with Glenn Becks name on it. The story inside, however, was written by a Harriet Parke, a retired emergency room R.N. published in 2012. The name of the novel is “Agenda 21.” The title is a little outdated now but I needed something to occupy my winter evenings when I picked it up at a thrift store. Turns out it was pretty damn interesting. It could have been published yesterday only called “Agenda 2030.”

“I was just a baby when we were relocated and I don’t remember much. Everybody has that black hole at the beginning of life. That time you can’t remember. Your first step. Your first taste of table food. My real memories begin in our assigned living area in Compound 14.”

Of course, a plausible story that leaves an impression on your psyche, much like “The Hunger Games” did for most of us. Governments, or whomever, is just the face of those that wish to steal the souls of mankind and strictly control human movement and behavior. The facilitator, if you will, year after year keeping the world distracted and divided. But to what end goal?

I actually see the “hunger games” speeding toward us right now. First week in July, an emotional release is expected.

I became acutely aware of happenings in the world back in the late 1960’s when JFK was murdered. I was 10. “Duck and cover” were monthly drills at school back then but honestly you never forget where you were when you first heard that our precious country was no longer safe. How could they do this to a sitting president? More major assassinations of brave souls who just wanted peace, in your face with endless TV coverage. Then came the Vietnam war. The first brutal, bloody war that was televised. In color, I might add. Witness the carnage, buy the fear. What better way to subjugate a population.

My high school friends were being drafted as soon as they graduated and when some eventually made it home, their bodies were so very damaged, as well as humanness mentally destroyed. To top off these young draftees misery, they were greeted at the airports with disdain, hatred, and spit on from the anti-war woke groups with hateful signs. They can remove our history from the school books but those that lived it remember it vividly. Fifty years later history seems to be repeating itself, just the actors have changed.

I may be older now but my observation skills are still keen. Maybe more so at this time. I don’t have the distractions that my grown children have. Raising teenagers, mortgages, credit cards, etc.

This country, hell, the world, is about to go through another major, painful transformation. We as a humanity, are fast approaching the end of this civilization cycle. Even the energy of the planet feels different.

Add to the stress already presented, weather patterns have shifted. If this is a natural process or maybe helped somewhat by chemicals in the sky is yet a bit opaque, but I suspect a combination of things. Up until a few year ago the an atmospheric jet stream dipped over the Upper Peninsula on its regular travel across the surface of the planet but a change has occurred. It now drops way far south raising havoc and much more destruction. When cold Canadian jet stream meets warm moist gulf air, you get the picture.

Our migratory birds were gracing us with their songs 3 weeks earlier than normal this year. I was so surprised to see the first Robin here two weeks before that huge Michigan ice storm. Red Wing black birds usually don’t show up until the second or third week in April, but they showed up with the Robins. As a general rule, Sand Hill Cranes nest along the water shed down the road from us. They like the water ice free as it mostly was early again this season and so were they early. It was like they knew their nesting was free from ice.

Our rainy season has changed too. It used to rarely rain in July, but the last couple of years we have had lots of rain in July and August. Just some observations.

If I’d have to put a sharp point on this article, it would be for everyone to become a witness. SOP, they call it. Standard Operating Procedure for your safety and awareness of your environment and whatever surrounds you at every given moment. Keep your children safe by teaching them a natural awareness too. That will be a gift legacy to them and your future generations. Become your own witness. Awareness demands that you put down that damn cell phone!

Cold Comfort

“The man is not sick because he has an illness he has an illness because he is sick.” An Old Chinese Proverb

Years ago, well actually shortly before C-19 came into being, I had a scary dream/vision sort of thing. In this dream/vision sort of thing there was a city with lots of people mulling around and the word Bacteria came across my dream screen. I woke up.

Later, maybe the following year, C-19 lockdowns began. How odd, I thought, as my brain reminisced about the dream/vision sort of thing I had. My dream must have missed the mark on that one.

In the last 20 years or so there has been the appearance of H1N1, a subtype of the influenza virus, SARS as a related coronavirus, MERS also related to coronavirus, and Ebolavirus which the CDC has a patent on it and the vaccine.

Of course there are other viruses, but, I”m thinking outside the box here. What if all these new vaccines are to weaken/destroy our human immune system and suddenly there are no antibiotics to be had anywhere? Reality finally puts that piece of puzzle in front of us to finish the picture. And there it is. It’s the bacteria that was the actual human depopulation plan of the WEFers all along. Was the weaponization of the viruses and vaccines just a distraction?

Virus vs bacteria. What is the difference?

10 bacterial diseases seen first after a disaster- not in any particular order.

MRSA- MRSA stands for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, a type of bacteria that is resistant to several antibiotics. Generally, it begins as a skin infection, but untreated can become septic.

Typhoid fever— Gastrointestinal infection caused by the Salmonella enterica serological variant Typhi in contaminated food and water. Infected people can be carriers of the bacteria for up to three months infecting others along the way.

Tooth Abscess-A tooth abscess is an infection caused by tooth decay, periodontal (gum) disease or a cracked tooth. Will not get better without antibiotics. Can be deadly if left untreated.

Pertussis- Whooping cough Human disease caused by the bacteria Bordetella pertussis. Click on the orange link (Pdf) to learn about a great home remedy for this bacterial illness.

Typhus—Caused by body lice, ticks,and rat fleas. Epidemic typhus generally occurs in outbreaks when poor sanitary conditions and crowding are present.

Hantavirus- From mouse droppings. 40% fatality rate.

Leptospirosis- From rodent urine found in stagnant warm water and pools. This bacterial disease has a 10 to 50% fatality rate.

Chaga disease- This one is an infection caused by a protozoan parasite. Affects the heart and intestinal tract.

Food Poisoning- Is caused by bacteria in spoiled, dirty, or undercooked food. Have activated charcoal on hand for this highly likely happening. Hospitals usually have this on hand in the Emergency Room. At least they used to.

Tuberculosis- Highly contagious! The World Health Organization (WHO) describes it as an “epidemic”. It reports that it is 13th leading cause of death globally and “the second leading infectious killer after COVID-19. Chlorine bleach has no effect on tuberculosis bacteria.

Now, imagine finding a journal in the rubble a few years after. . .

Journal entry November 24

I haven’t written in a while. We have mostly been moving around, trying to keep out of sight. I think we have got a good place to stay now, for awhile at least. Lockdowns were brutal, then they imposed a draft for young men and women. People rioted and protested. So, they brought out the UFO card and announced that aliens were real on planet earth. The world went nuts.

Then a huge, earth shattering event came in April of 2024. I still don’t understand what exactly happened, I don’t think anyone really knows. The power had been off since about the middle of December last year and most people were able to deal with a little inconvenience until the gangs and newly released prisoners started kicking peoples doors in and taking over neighborhoods.

But then there was a big flash and several mushroom type clouds of some sort in April. Some say it was the sun like a CME setting the earth on fire. Others say it was a nuke. Doesn’t matter now, many souls left the planet in April from that event. Maybe that was the bibles “left behind tribulation.” Those that didn’t die were left behind plus we didn’t take the vaccines the WHO demanded we have for our digital ID. There were thousands that didn’t go along with that nonsense and we were cast out of society and the smart cities. Government goons came after us, but there were pockets of resistors that survived anyway. Knowledge is king, the more you know the less you need.

Journal entry January

It has been a particularly cold winter so far here in the north country. Respiratory infections have been taking its toll on our group. For the most part the hunting has been good and the gardens were adequate this season so we have had plenty to eat. I’ve been designated pharmacist because of my herbal knowledge and remedies making skills. Runners have shown up from other groups to bater remedies and knowledge. I’ve become quite wealthy and popular. I have a ton of 22 and 9mm ammo now. I will need to increase the size of my herbal garden next spring.

I have recently learned to make clean activated charcoal. There were so many food poisonings in the beginning and people with the shits. Thank goodness I have a recipe too for making a Pedialyte drink. Saved a bunch from a miserable time. Dysentery and Cholera was a tough one. People were so desperate for food and water they would eat about anything. What a mess that was. Groups didn’t save enough plastic garbage bags in their prep supplies to handle the clean up. I felt sorry for them.

Journal entry March, I think.

It has been almost a year since the invasion. “The-powers-that-be” were responsible for the power grid takedown here in the US last December. They didn’t want Trump winning the election and people finding out how they had messed up the country. The digital ID thing didn’t work, people just didn’t get on board with it and all the government surveillance and control that came with it.

Tuberculosis showed up in a neighboring group this last winter. It had started showing up big time here in the U.S. when the Biden administration opened our borders to hundreds of millions of illegal people from just about every country in the world without screening them. It had not been much of a problem here until then, just a few cases here and there.

There wasn’t much I could do to help because people who had gotten tuberculosis. Most were lacking in vitamin D due to lockdowns and supply shortages early on. It was too cold to sit them out in the sun for very long. Herbal remedies helped some but many died, mostly they couldn’t cope with the tuberculosis and the wet cold of no heat in whatever they were living in. Also, from what I hear there was a case of Typhoid at a group in the area that they mishandled because the group was unfamiliar with Typhoid and just about everyone became infected. A few of the group didn’t make it, then came whooping cough for a couple of infants. I gave them what vitamin C I had left to those little guys and some rosehip powder. I haven’t heard if they got better or not. I don’t like not knowing.

Journal entry June, It seems like June mosquitos are thick

Rumors say the invading army has pretty much left or died or something. Their supplies had been cut off and they weren’t getting paid or the promised citizenship. No sense fighting Americans that are armed to the teeth and know the terrain. Those loyal Americans didn’t bow down to government bullshit and came away much stronger. Some of the invading army were all too happy to be absorbed into villages and groups, mostly down south from what I hear. They didn’t want to fight this war any more than we did. Insect bites, Chaga, ticks and fleas became a big problem. Also hunger will make people do unbelievable things.

Journal entry August, We are beginning harvest this week

Had a couple cases of gangrene starting. Glad to see they came to me early on. I guess by now most people recognise that the red line running up from an infected wound is not good. I ran out of black seed oil during the winter months. That is so sad because I won’t be able to replace it. Used flaxseed meal and cabbage leaf poultice, changed every few hours. Seemed to work pretty well.

During the winter months and again this spring, I heard older survivors had surcome to heart attacks due to the heavy workload. I’m surprised they lasted this long. Most had to be weaned off pharma drugs. That wasn’t fun, used up a ton of my herbal reserves.

We were able to make it to a traders rendezvous in, I think it was July. Some of the preppers were saying they made it this far because they had planned ahead and had water filtration. So many people they knew had gotten sick with water borne illness like, Leptospirosis, cryptosporidium,and giardia. Plus, people were not wiping the tops of their stored canned goods. Mice left droppings and urine on them that got into the food. More died unnecessarily because they didn’t practice good hygiene. Also, there was decomposing carcassi floating in ponds and streams they were telling me. Some animal, more humans. Industrial wastewater was another feature of pollution that could be seen floating around in the streams along with all that good stuff from unmanned wastewater treatment plants. Gross!

Glad we planned ahead too. Pressure canners have come in so handy. We can no longer find lids for canning so we turned one pressure canner into a water distiller, and another one into an autoclave. The more you know the less you need.

Journal entry I believe it is November again, the sun sets early now

It is so damn depressing were those dark days. There is optimism in the air beginning, however. I think we have turned the corner and things are coming back a little at a time. Americans can be so generous but those that could distrust strangers things and their stories is what kept some groups alive. It was a good thing too, you just couldn’t trust the aliens. They wanted people to trust them, but it turned out they just saw us as cattle. The rumor going around is that thousands of normal people were so hungry they willingly took their family into those FEMA camps we had been hearing about. That’s where they sucked the normal people up into their crafts. The craft then moved on to the next FEMA camp until the UFO was full then it left, just disappeared. Right?! Ok, then, whatever, eh? But that was the rumor.

Journal entry late winter

There are so few of us left in our area. It is a scary prospect but some of our group want to venture out to see who is left out there and if there is any news that they can bring back to our group. I am pleased to say, people are being more careful with their working habits and injuries are down. Those of us that are left are much stronger now and healthier. We have had a couple of babies born and they seem to be thriving without all the chemicals in their little bodies and those vaccines given to them in hospitals 10 minutes after birth. I call them “natures children”, the way god intended children should be.

There was a few feral hogs still running the woods. They wondered too close to our encampment and a couple of them ended up as dinner. I am surprised there are any animals left around here. Probably should have kept them for a starter farm. Maybe next time.
