Hello, From Mc Cobb down in New Orleans. Been working here doing electrical work and rehab for over a year. It has been a real eye opener as far as how things down here are. It seems that investment opportunities exist, but that locals don’t seem to be the ones taking advantage of it. I have seen more Asain and Mexican people from all over the country desend down on this area in large numbers.
I can only say that you are not being told the whole story by major media. I don’t trust the police and have heard some terrible stories about how corrupt they are. In the world of commercial fishing, those guys will shoot you if you take their location, they will cut each others lines. In crab fishing New Orleans is the only place that 100% loss is recorded for traps (at $25 per trap x 500 traps ave) Thats alot of dollars. This place is going to change but I am not sure what it will become, maybe we will look back in 20yrs and say its the new melting pot for those born outside the USA borders.
I still think its such an adventure I could never walk away from all the opportunities I see. Think of it, it all needs to be rebuilt, even the social structure. Especially the social structure. Think about it. A place to start over, this time hopefully we make better choices.

Sept 11,
Where are all the answers to all the questions? Why have we as a nation not brought this out to the streets. We talk all we can inside this web but why then has it not made it to the reality of our day to day lifes. Why is the killing still going on? Why have the people of this nation not charged the people who let 911 happen and profited by it punished for their crimes, Why have we let a family abuse its power and lie to the American people and cheat its way into office, None of this seems to matter. Where are you America. Wake up!!

The Question is…..
“How can a government for the people by the people exist when those that run it are controlled by the greed of a few business people?
The Answer is…
“It cannot exist. When a country that is controlled by less than 5% of the richest people that place their wealth before the peoples best wishes than it is not a government for the people by the people, it is nothing more than a land that is controlled by a few Kings and Queens.”

We seem to forget that reality is our dream to dream.
We alone must create the ultimate limitations in our lives, our own illusions of this dream we are in.
If we find ourselves in a life that is growing darker, it is us that decide to go deeper into that dark place.
We must realize that even in darkness one can find peace. There can be many lessons taught in the dark places of life.

As you begin to enter my world, reading every word image by image, I can only wonder where this will take us. I open my mind and let my words enter my hands as they become letters on the page. As I read what is written I feel we are connected in time.
You, help me write ideas that we share in the heart. The thoughts flow from my mind as if I’m being told each word, not thinking of what I’ m writing, or even how it will come out.
Imagine that there is no time, that somehow your thoughts are mine. We write what must be written. Sharing our deepest needs like souls from the same mother. We are not existing in the natural world now, but are in the world of imagination, trapped like a dreamer waiting to wake up. Slowly, word by word the illusions become reality, your thoughts become mine, and my emotions become yours. Together we can enlighten ourselves to the answers we seek, sharing this journey as friends walking the same path.
