What good is a long memory in protecting ourselves from recurring danger, when we fail to recognize any problem in the first place?

I’d trade full-out amnesia for perfect recall, if it came with the rooted ability to identify bullsh!t & peril every first time I saw it.

Epiphany Amnesia

I wonder how many epiphanies I’ve had, that became such commonplace truths after the fact that I forgot there ever was an epiphany?

And how many triggering events might have been forgotten, or never recognized as the source?

It is a heck of a way to muddle through it all, as if you never muddled. You just know, ya know? Or do you? I mean, how do you know this revelation isn’t a re-epiphany, hmm?

Anyway, I had one of these the other day, and the grouping of its cause and effect, and yes, a subsequent and post-subsequent epiphany even, was so painfully paralyzing that I pray God that my incessant amnesia remain viable with this respect, even after I reread this post in time.

There can be such power in occurrences that it is readily imaginable how some never emerge, and I’m only speaking of the mortal sorts, thinking the divine modes unfathomable.

That’s all, never mind. ~tdv

They either know it’s over for them, or they know it’s over for all of us… Democrat growing disregard for people, liberty & property. @

The birthright of your countrymen, this haven for liberty, will suffer its trespass no more. @

Your attempt to take this nature from men, to diminish their freedom, defines your cruel heart. @

If you be of the mind that you may crush the spirit of liberty in men, then you are a fool, for as it may sleep, it is never dead. @

If I seek to be honored, then I know it not, for honor, in truth, is a lonely virtue. @

If you wish to be ruled over, then expect to be overruled, as the voice of your countrymen will remind you of liberty. @

“If I wanted America to fail”

  • I’d say her Constitution sucks, then swear an oath to defend it, so that I could have the power to violate it. @
  • I’d simply redefine it. @
  • I’d rule over it. @

The “tolerant” politician is always the one trying to change and control people who he can’t tolerate. @

Questions for every political candidate: “What is Liberty?” & “What are the greatest threats to our Liberty… in order?” @

I was gonna say “Looking good!” but having no memory of your look from our last meeting, I could say “Looking awful!” with equal integrity. @

On a scale of one-to-tyranny, we were once the only one. @

If a purist is a constitutional traditionalist, and socialism is the new norm, then call me a radical purist. @
