People Say I’m Crazy, But I’m Not the Only One – John Lennon
Thanksgiving Day 2014: We are all somewhat crazy or we wouldn’t be here today, doing what we’re doing. Here’s my top ten list of those things that I find Beyond Cuckoo.
Beyond Cuckoo:
- Government in general: need I say more?
- Banks
- War
- Hungry people in a world of abundance: partly because of government, banks and war.
- Underpaid teachers
- Writing Clubs
- Monsanto: In all its forms, but especially GMO foods
- Global Warming and all the things we could do, but don’t, to take care of our home planet.
- Addictions: You pick your poison
- Black Friday
Cuckoo Cures:
- Community service
- Charitable giving
- Peaceful motives
- Generosity
- Educational funding
- Writing
- Local and organic foods
- Alternative energy
- Mental health care, research, love and support
- Simple living and high thinking
Unlike David Letterman, I’ll let you sort the above in any manner that fits. Feel free to add, subtract and multiply. However I do urge you to look at the sane and insane elements of life and choose accordingly. It is the only way to make our way back from the brink of cuckoo and regain balance, peace and love—giving new meaning to Thanksgiving Day. Blessings to you all.
