Living Life Together

With all the troubles we’re seeing in the world right now, I believe co-housing is becoming more of a necessity for life. And the manner in which we live can make or break us.

Therefore, I think we all need to be wise in deciding where & with whom we choose to abide and how we choose to live there.

Where to Shelter Ourselves

We all need safe shelter.

I personally think it’s unwise to dwell in densely populated areas, because I believe they are danger zones when trouble strikes on a societal level. (I prefer to steer clear of them anyway because I think much of the world has gone mad.)

With Whom Do We Abide

We all need a united house if we expect it to stay standing, because a divided house will fall.

Therefore, I think a household should share the same values and have an agreed upon set of house rules to live by. (What that will be is up to each household.)

When given the choice, I think it’s unwise to abide with those who refuse to face, acknowledge & accept reality because those who do this are incapable of making wise decisions.

I realize we have all been deceived about many things in our life, and it’s very difficult to accept that reality because nobody likes being fooled, especially when it comes to that which is fundamental to one’s worldview. But the fact is, we have all inherited lies and there are deceptive forces continually at work all around us, all the time. It is our responsibility to pay attention and discern between what is real & what is not. That is, if we want to live.

I think it is unwise to co-habit with those who choose to serve the Powers-that-Shouldn’t-Be in this world. It’s one thing to be a victim of their trickery, capture & enslavement, it’s another to willfully do their bidding when it becomes apparent that they are committing these crimes.

The Powers-That-Shouldn’t-Be are clearly against us. They are stealing from us & our fellow man and committing all sorts of atrocities against mankind. They are our Enemy. And we all have a choice: to either aid & abet that Enemy or not.

People are free to make their own choice. But when it comes to sharing a roof with another, I think we all need to soberly assess the situation we find ourselves in. Are we housing our Enemy? (I’ll leave it at that.)

And lastly, I think it would be wise to cohabit with those who are on the same path, headed toward the same destination, because they can help you get to where you aim to go.

Then, get busy cooperating with one another as much as you can to achieve your common aim.

Co-housing can work. But it takes work to make it work.

Live. Together.

If you are living together, then I suggest living — together.

Commune with one another and live life together. Eat together, work together, learn together, play together and grow together.

Strengthen your household, which I believe is a necessary building block for a strong community.

And a strong community is what we each need to survive & thrive outside the System.

In all the years my husband and I have been attempting to build a community around us, I always came back to the fact that it all starts at home.

We all need to get our houses in order.

And I think the times we’re living in are making that notion abundantly clear to us.

(I realize I said I wasn’t going to tell anybody what to do in these blog posts, but I can’t help myself. This is what’s on my mind, and I’m just keeping it real.) 🙂
