Power cuts in Germany: Last year in Germany, 289,000 households had their power cut, at least temporarily, by suppliers due to unpaid electric bills. Hundreds of thousands had no lights, no warm water, could use neither stoves nor refrigerators, could not do laundry and had no access to radio, television or the internet. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2020/10/13/pove-o13.html#:~:text=Last year in Germany, 289,000 households had their,no access to radio, television or the internet.
Sounds lovely Mick. No TV, internet, radio, no light and no warm water. This was normal when I was a child. Our home was heated by a fire and we used to converse with each other.

Yes I remember both of my grandmother's who were born in 1913 and 1904 talking about how they grew up without electricity (in Quebec and northern NY where it gets COLD!) and without the perks of our modern world and I remember vividly thinking how much I would have loved to grown up at that time, partly because they actually communicated with their families and neighbors! Can't imagine not having power today, but unfortunately I think it's coming to every part of the globe. Scary times ahead.

Katie Hopkins made a video about the sort of brainwashing aspect of it all. She made mention of something called heat banks. She made the statement that a government that would freeze and starve it's own people will be willing to do far worse.

I can recall a time when the roads were clear on a Sunday. Not a shop open, no one on the street and there was not a sound to be heard other than the sounds of nature and which in themselves, form the ‘silence’. The last period of silence I can recall was 1963, when we had snow right up to April. Stillness that I had never experienced until then. It was electrically ethereal as though the earth held is breath and nature slept. Life paused because there was nothing to respond to, no sense of life was attended, it was as though God had brought an end to time and in its wake, left an endless expanse of beauty that demanded our attention, like a truth that had been accomplished in its entirety and given the name of Peace.

I have no imagination as to what technology God would give us. What I do know is that the busy sound of a city or aircraft flying overhead were not his design. People living like sardines ain't it either. I was watching something about Iceland last night. Because of constant volcanic activity, Iceland is actually growing in size a little at a time. It gave me the idea that our planet is not a finished product yet. The bible says we will still have deserts but it says they will bloom. That means water and sustainability. People being able to spread out.
I'm sure there will be communities that might be a little more closely populated but not without the acreage to feed themselves I'm sure.

When I was growing up, my parents moved us to a small town in northern Wyoming and then even farther out in the country down in Arkansas. The daytime hours have their own sounds and then at night it settles into something very different. In Wyoming there just wasn't much noise and you can reach out and touch the sky. In Arkansas as the night falls there are fireflies and Whippoorwills that come out and add to the night.

NEW - Tens of thousands of Czechs protested in Prague against the government today to demand more state help with rising energy bills and voicing opposition to the European Union and NATO.

This was the largest manifestation of public discontent over the worst cost-of-living crisis in three decades.

You are a poet...and don't even know it.:)

That sounded like something from a Hemingway novel. Beautiful prose, my friend. It made me want to be there.

I was thinking the same thing @kirmmy. I mean BTD has a way with words…knowing how to put you in that place or time. Simply beautiful! I wonder if he’s ever considered being some kind of writer or poet! 😊
