“I privately say to you, old friend... please accept from me this unpretentious bouquet of early-blooming parentheses: (((()))).” ―J.D. Salinger, Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters & Seymour: An Introduction
But this wasn't just another garden-variety slight sickness, like those we'd all experienced innumerable time throughout our lives. This was a bioweapon, created intentionally by satanic beings to destroy civil society as we had once thought it to be, to destroy social cohesion and basic trust among neighbors, to sow generalized intense hatred and wildly irrational terror. We found that the people who we had previously assumed to be rational, ethical, fundamentally decent human beings were in fact monsters, ghouls, fascists. We found that we were in fact living in Hell.
Thanks Margaret Anna Alice. You have an incredible grasp of language and I am envious. (I should have paid attention a bit more in school). That being said, the madness that we have experienced over the last couple of years didn't just start a couple of years ago. One only has to look at what has been set up over decades that has put us where we are right now. Destroying families, making it taboo to greet others without the "approved" greeting, (We don't want to offend), stirring up hatred among nations, tribes, peoples... all of it has brought us to where we are now. Some of us saw this and were crying out to deaf ears. Maybe just biding our time when those ears would once again be opened to receive the message of courage, hope, truth, *victory!*. We are here now. Ears and eyes are opening. It's yourself and the thousands of people we see on this platform (and a few others) every day who have realized that we were created for this time in history. That together we are strong and powerful and can overcome. That we are not alone. That we know the truth. In fact, that we are the majority on this earth. The demons have overplayed their hands. If they hadn't, we would most likely still be crying out to deaf ears. There is hope! And thank you for your part in all of this. As difficult as times ahead may become, I can't wait to see what we are going to accomplish together. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I for one love this fairy tale, we all need a little imagination. Something the elites DON’T have. How utterly sad to plow through life, ignoring the beauty and destroying everything in its path. WE just don’t understand because we have SOULS.
One can accumulate all the power and wealth possible but to be enriched is to have your dignity intact…they will never have what we have.
Wishing you all a beautiful Christmas and continue to spread love and compassion.
Thank you Margaret for helping us to do so, I also consider you and your readers my Friends!🙏❤️🎄☺️
Hugs and gratitude to you all for your beautiful comments! I am still catching up on the torrential backlog after taking Christmas off but will respond to your comments as soon as time permits! 🤗
Turning on the christmas lights I decided I would no longer get any fear mongering articles in my inbox. Thank you for not being one of these !
Your jump off the cliff makes me think of Carlos Castaneda's books, which I read many years ago.
Yes that could have been the story if it were not for some money hungry people. Let us work together so they won't get their pockets filled any longer !
Thank you for the comfort blanket of a story this Christmas! If only life could be the boring story, and everything that happened over the past few years could be filed in "Grimm's Fairy Tales for the 21st Century."
((((())))) Merry Christmas, Margaret. I feel so fortunate to have become part of the Substack community and to your own ever-moving, educating, provocative and literary postings. All thanks to you for pushing me into it! While I could fill many paragraphs extolling the virtues of your output, I don't really have to. They speak for themselves.
So here's to planting new seeds of a new future, our own future, organic and loving, shining and bright, built on care and compassion, not the servile exploitation of a dark underworld planned for us by ruling patriarchs of a dying world.
The pen is truly mightier than the sword. At the very least, light candles and wear garlic. ;-)
Jesus, I am emotional today! Holy crap, the comments are so beautiful…I’m crying (in a good way)…I’ll read the rest after work, I can’t go in looking like this😩!
Gosh, if all this only concerned a sickness, of whatever severity, we likely could have dealt with it more effectively and humanely than we did. Sadly, the sickness was only the excuse for engineering a far more sinister system of control and depopulation that they have planned to institute for a very long time, a system that turns us into digital slaves. I wish we had heeded the warnings, and there were many, but we didn't. Now we must enter a world of our own creation, separate and distinct from theirs, where we have the last remaining chance to live as a free people. Making that world a reality is our next and most important task.
Lovely story, Margaret. What could have been (sigh) if our society wasn't programmed, manipulated, gaslighted and engineered into being fearful sheep. Merry Christmas to you & yours!
There is a place we enter in,
What never was, what might have been.
Where are you now,? Afraid to seek?
Afraid to talk? Well we still speak.
We say the things never said,
To try to reach inside your head.
If you could hear you'd understand,
what never was, was also planned.
Love what could have been. Agree it’s such a relief to find like-minded people in these crazy times. Merry Christmas

Brevity is the soul of wit; you have both!
Merry (sort of) Christmas to a fine fellow writer, thinker and glorious dissident.
