"Self-reliance?" Sure, but ONLY if I am working with MY people in professional, educated, and ETHICAL fields where I can THRIVE. That means NO self-owned business, NO sales, NO retail, NO labor, NO blue collar, NO realty, NO insurance, NO food service, NO lumber, NO trucking, NO profit-based healthcare, NO IT, NO fossil fuels, NO investment jobs, NO banking, NO hospitality, NO warehouse, NO construction, NO factory, NO clergy, NO car dealerships, etc. ONLY educational fields, libraries, LARGE museums, and organizations that restore classic and foreign films. NOTHING ELSE. EVER.

I guess I am weird because I enjoyed every word and the meaning behind it all (pun intened)..

Thank you, one of my favorite of Emerson’s essays

Thank you for this wonderful gift. God bless you.
