"The pioneers get all the arrows"
My first calling was as a musician and songwriter...I was fortunate enough to have a good run...Some songs from a friend of mine you never heard but might like...

Friend of mine once told me this lyric should be stitched on a pillow:
"I believe that life is for living and love is the axis on which we turn
We bare our souls till all is forgiven
and clothe ourselves with the lessons learned"
---KH
A favorite quote from a favorite author:
“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
― Robert A. Heinlein
...and one I saw on a studio wall in Nashville:
“Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.”
― Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love
OK...one more...
“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, Friday

The condition in which one person is owned as property by another and is under the owner's control, especially in involuntary servitude.
The state of a person who is a chattel of another.
Submission to a dominating influence.
Our rights – to think, speak, publish, worship, defend ourselves, travel, own property, be left alone – are natural to our humanity.
These rights preexisted the government. Their source is our humanity. Government does not grant these rights. Rather, its primary purpose – as stated in the Declaration of Independence, its sole purpose – is to protect these rights.
No man can have a right to impose an unchosen obligation, an unrewarded duty or an involuntary servitude on another man. There can be no such thing as “the right to enslave.”
Eleutheromania, or eleutherophilia is "a mania or frantic zeal for freedom".Some usages of the term make it sound like it could be used in a medical context with a hint of an irrational disorder, a mad zeal or irresistible craving for freedom. passion for liberty. Individuals with this condition are called eleutheromaniacs An antonym for the term is eleutherophobia. An individual that fears freedom is an eleutherophob
“Politics: the art of using euphemisms, lies, emotionalism and fear-mongering to dupe average people into accepting--or even demanding--their own enslavement.” ― Larken Rose
People are difficult to rule, because of their knowledge.

"What good fortune for those in power that people do not think."

Confinement is Liberty. Abortion is Life. War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength.

Any alleged “right” of one man, which necessitates the violation of the rights of another, is not and cannot be a right. ~ Rand
Rights are not a matter of numbers - and there can be no such thing, in law or in morality, as actions forbidden to an individual, but permitted to a mob. ~Rand
A man is no less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years. ~ Lysander Spooner
“Fascism and communism are not two opposites, but two rival gangs fighting over the same territory – both are variants of statism, based on the collectivist principle that man is the RIGHTLESS SLAVE OF THE STATE. ~ Rand
"There is no difference between communism and socialism, except in the means of achieving the same ultimate end: communism proposes to enslave men by force, socialism - by vote. It is merely the difference between murder and suicide. " ~ Rand
"He who is unfit to serve his fellow citizens wants to rule them."
~Ludwig von Mises
The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. ~Rand
"To trudge: the slow, weary, depressing yet determined walk of a man who has nothing left in life except the impulse to simply soldier on."

Authority, not truth, makes law
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I believe we need more transparency in government. I know we are lied to on a daily basis by the mainstream media and the history being taught in schools today is not only untrue, but harmful to any independent free thinking individual.
I believe freedom of speech is one of the most sacred rights we have as individuals. I welcome dissenting opinions as long as they are presented in a decent, coherent manner.
I enjoy truth, beauty and unusual stories. I follow lots of different people and post lots of things I find interesting. If I post something it's because I find it interesting, thought provoking or beautiful. I don't always agree wholeheartedly with everything I post but I do truly enjoy hearing what others have to say.
I find irreverent humor quite funny and also am known to curse. If that offends you then just move along.
The images I post on my channel are all found on the internet and are not my personal work.
You are always welcome to message me although I've found the Minds messaging system to be a bit wonky at the present time.
