Forwarded from Steven A. Young
Greetings all,
Big day today! I am launching some new channels and announcing my intention to make regular videos, sharing what morsels of wisdom I can, and building community online.
I don’t make this comitment lightly, I have been avoiding the work for a long time, favouring the life of the Hermit, and I am guilty of over-promising in the past then not following through, but I can no longer escape my destiny! I realize now that I have to do this, to open myself up authentically and spread the light I have been fortunate to receive.
You will be assured to learn that I have hired some help this time, I have taken on a wonderful assistant who is wide awake and well versed in the arts of marketing, video editing and business management. This is a big step up for me and will really help me to get things done and stay consistent.
With everything that has been going on in recent years, it has been a daunting prospect to start a video channel, I am much more comfortable hiding behind audio and the written word, but I am always reminded of the alchemical dictum ‘the cave you most fear to enter holds the treasure that you seek’.
It’s time to enter the cave! I hope you will join me and show your support. Please check out this introduction video on my fledgling youtube channel … and remember to smash those buttons! 🤪

Do you really believe that you're powerless and incapable of ensuring your health, freedom, and peace and creating the life you want unless your chosen candidate is elected? Do you really believe that?
Do you truly believe that all of that hinges primarily on “your candidate” winning, and would be lost if the “other candidate” takes office? You really think you’re that weak and incapable?
Have you forgotten that the same power that created the earth and the heavens resides within you? Do you not have the power to ensure your health, freedom and peace, irrespective of who’s in office?
Maybe the issue is that a large majority of men and women believe themselves to be so powerless and incapable — forgetting that the power of God resides within them — while believing that whoever’s in office possesses all of the power and the ability to dictate the lives of others. What if we collectively stopped believing it? Would it actually be true? What if it’s all being upheld by collective belief? What if that’s the whole point of the political show, and the media, celebrities, and influencers conditioning you to place so much importance on the political show— to trick you into forgetting your own power while believing you’re totally helpless and at the mercy of those in so-called positions of “authority.”

The Louisiana Purchase Exposition In Color-Types & Monotones, 1904.
The 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, officially known as the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, held in St. Louis, Missouri, was a grand event designed to celebrate the centennial of the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. It showcased the latest advancements in technology, culture, and architecture from around the world. Some magnificent buildings, constructed for the event, have sparked debate among observers. A common misconception is that all these structures were designed to be temporary, as the official narrative claims.
However, many of these buildings were, in fact, built with solid materials and some still stand today, suggesting they were not merely temporary. While some structures were refurbished with more temporary materials for the fair, the idea that all of them were built solely for the event and quickly dismantled oversimplifies the reality.
1,500 papier-mâché buildings by 1904… sure..
