(Concluded from Part 1, yesterday.)

I’m carried back in memory to the mid-Seventies, when I first started to look at patterns in human behavior.

When I was just starting out in the study, back with Eric Berne and Games People Play, human growth and “tell me who you are” (rather than breaking free and “letting it all hang out,” as in the Sixties) became our new “safe zone” or accepted trend. Our spectrum of entrainment. Our ground of unity or cohesion.

It was the place where we hoped to take the flock by doing what we were doing. At that time, workshops and encounter groups sprang up. No more dropping out and turning on. We now wanted self-actualization, Self-Realization (1) and we’d travel to India or Japan to “find” it.

Of course the mainstream media mocked us as “the Me Generation,” as if we were self-indulgent rather than seeking to fulfill the purpose of life, which I submit is to know who we are. (2)

All that was swept away by the jobless recovery of the early-1980s, in my opinion, an automation-induced, deliberately-set recession. The first jobless recovery I’d ever heard of.

Our conversation again became highly patterned, almost compulsively so, as we re-entered the “normal” world. Two kinds predominated, “I like/I don’t like” and “howdido” [How did I do?].

Let me restrict myself here to the second, howdido conversation. We seemed often to have such a chat with our officemates, friends, and family.

It seemed important to fashioning the permanent story of our behavior – who we’d represent ourselves as being, to others. Who we wanted to be remembered as – kindly, assertive, charming, etc.

“I said this to Jack and Jack said that. And I replied this. Well, what would you say, huh? How did I do?”

“Oh, dear, you did fine. How could he ever think he could get away with saying something like that to you?”

On and on, day in and day out, we’d get our story to just where we want it to be. Polishing, polishing, not our characters, but our self-image.

Then once our rendering (and it really was a rendering) passed muster and left us in just the right position within the group, we’d lock our story down and from that moment on, “That’s the way it happened. Gospel truth.” What did we know about the truth?

Back in those days, I wrote pages of notes on the self-serving bias. (3) Instead of experiencing a flow of love coming up from our hearts which we direct to ourselves and others, which is what I mean by “loving ourselves and others,” we settled for being right (power) or looking good (pride) through the use of self-servingness.

We were the hero in our own write. If things worked out, our input was important if not crucial. If things failed, hey, it wasn’t me.

A person who departs from this way of being risks being deemed “difficult” or “impulsive,” etc., and ultimately ostracized and forgotten. Or becoming a leader in our society.

If you think of our societies as like the flock of geese I’m watching, what turns the flock? Well, watch Donald Trump (4) because he’s turning the flock.

And watch the surviving members of his original cabinet, because I think of them as turning the flock.

I don’t agree with all they do or say, but I’m content to follow their lead at such a decisive and (r)evolutionary moment. I’m content to follow the leader.

And that extends to their lead with the media, entertainment, the reshaping of our culture, as well as with our politics and economics.

We’re building Nova Earth. Donald Trump’s team is building Nova Earth. BRICS is building Nova Earth. We’re all on the same team, part of the same flock, and on the same flight path.

Now we’re turning to the Emergency Broadcasts as part of our boot camp. It may be miserable for many people. After it, we hope for a Wave of Love and relief beyond our imagining. (5)

And, finally, after that, the flock goes off on a brand-new journey. G/NESARA, QFS, QVS, free energy, anti-grav, med beds, all new governance… and Ascension. (6) For us, it’ll be a complete change of direction.

(1) On the ethos of the era, see Marilyn Ferguson, The Aquarian Conspiracy and anything by David Spengler.

The recession of the early 1980s, with its automation of large swathes of work and resulting jobless recovery, in my estimation, killed the growth movement, as it was designed to do, I believe. The growth movement was all about increasing self-awareness, breaking free, etc. We were nipped in the bud bit we’re still here.

(4) In my view, we can afford to stop thinking of Donald Trump as a conservative. If you’ll allow me to say it, I see him as a reformer (among other things) who’s succeeded in winning us over to his vision of change, by one means or another, and with a cast of thousands backing him up, along with large portions of the world, including their militaries. I don’t agree with him on everything (and I don’t need to) but I’m 100 percent behind him nonetheless.
