Thoughts from a naked unshackled mind
Socrates
Over the last several days I have been reading about Socrates (yes the Greek philosopher). Some of the facts that I learnt in the process was amazing. He was a stone mason and did not know how to read and write. He was much misunderstood during his lifetime and his death sentence is testimony to that.
Plato was his most famous student because of whom we get to learn about him. In spite his lack of reading or writing skills he thought hard and he thought long. There are stories about how he would keep standing at a place for hours deep in his thoughts.
His method is one of asking questions and in the process getting to the real answer. Thoughts from a naked unshackled mind at some level attempts to do the same. Read the book and see how many of these thoughts are thoughts you should be thinking that are relevant now.
As a parting note here is one of his thoughts
“The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” - Socrates

Hillary Running for President
So something I predicted sometime back is taking place. Hillary is running for president.
A quote from the book
Yes, Hillary is going to run to be the next Presi-dent. Why? Because, she wrote a book, just like President Obama. However, she probably will not be able to win. Too much baggage, not enough charisma. Some people crave the power to lead & change the world.

for a safer world...
Sandy Hook, CT. Yes, this could happen in the school your kids go to as well. So, please do whatever you think is right, to prevent it. Do not repent posthumously. [ quote from my book]
I live not too far from Sandy Hook. Long before what happened there it was a pleasure to visit the place. At the main cross road of the town, there was a coffee shop where there was book readings (the place has since closed). Right next to this coffee shop is this brook and it was nice, relaxing, listening to the gurgling brook sipping coffee. In the same general area is this open air theatre where summer would bring plays. It was picture perfect.
December 14, 2012 changed all that. I do not know if taking guns away is the answer or not but what I do know is it is hard to stop anybody if they have the intent. Changing intent is probably the answer in some cases but small steps help. Do what you have to do in your community to make it safer just don't repent...posthumously.

These are the opening lines of the book and kind of sets the tone for the rest of the book. Politicians through out the ages have asked their constituents to do more. Fight wars etc. in the name of how that is service to the nation. Someone rightly said war is waged for one reason and one reason alone and that is profit. Take a look at history and the wars and you should see the pattern. Well it is time now to question politicians on what about their service and the compensation for my service to my nation. If I fight a war will I have to wait months for medical treatment. If I expose corruption will I be ostracized and lose my citizenship.

Listening to get wiser
Book Excerpt
When you were little, you listened to your parents,a little older, to your teacher, a little more, to your
professors. Then you got a job, & listened to the boss. You got a girlfriend, got married, & now you listen to her. Want to have kids & watch
them grow? Soon you will be dancing to their tunes too. Oh God! When does this stop? When you die? Then you get to listen to God/Satan. Quite an earful for this lifetime, & beyond!

Listening to get wiser
Look at your life past and present. Look at the people you had to listen to that you really did not want to listen to when you were growing up and now in adulthood. The ordeal does not end even when you die. One option I am thinking you may consider is pretending to be deaf to get out of this quagmire. Good Luck.
