I get this occurring twitch; it’s the feeling that I should be worrying about something.
Something to do with my future.
It is not until I remind myself that perhaps my souls secretly harbouring that which I know I have to fulfil and I search for the answer with
A hope-A radiance which tinges it with Rose and Gold. I am babbling what I mean is...
I have this idea.
That perhaps we need not rely on families or jobs and that we can find an alternative.
Why work for money when you can survive from food you grow, alternative energy to power your necessities and water made from vapour.
And if you do choose to work it would be disposable money you would earn that you can spend on anything but bank charges, rent and other things that involve giving away your money to other people.
It’s something my partner and I are working on.
Building our own house and to remove ourselves from what we are now realising to be a type of slavery set about by those holding the worlds purse strings.
It won’t happen overnight and of course technology and politics will progress as our plans unfold, so it may be a bumpy ride, but it’s a no-brainer.
I wonder if other groups of people are considering alterative energies? or perhaps an altogether alternative lifestyle? Or is it just the gypsy in my bones?
