Be Safe, Be Well, BE YOUR MIRACLE
If you have looked at mainstream news over the past weeks or months or even years, you can see a trend, that trend is that we are the problem, that people are causing the issues in the world. Why do we see this recurring message? What is it that people are doing wrong? Are we doing things wrong and if so, how can we rectify it?
The Why?
Our governments and big business, particularly those in the Western hemisphere (from my particular viewpoint) are struggling, the economies are in moderate to severe decline, leaders are fearing for their lives, there is talk of civil wars, numerous wars around the world and so many of the worlds biggest businesses laying off staff in big numbers. We are told that we are the problem and anything else for that matter so that they can charge more, more for tax, more for goods and services, higher inflation, follow the money and find the source of the problem…. Where does that money go? To the few who are the rich, the elite, ‘the powerful’.
According to Investopedia.com ‘The 10 most profitable companies in the world are a mix of technology, retail, and financial companies. All of the companies are located in either the U.S. or China. These companies play an important role in society across the globe, with many of their products being used daily by billions of people.’ (https://www.investopedia.com/the-world-s-10-most-profitable-companies-4694526)
How do you feel about ‘Big Business’ and what you benefit from them as they make their massive profits whilst laying off workers, increasing prices and delivering less?
What Are People Doing Wrong?
We are told that our eating meat is causing difficulties in our environment, our yearning to be warm in winter or to travel beyond our local communities, our mass consumerism, our hatred for the minority groups in our societies or our unbeknownst need for defence from foreign foes to our democratic and moral values results in the problems in our world.
We are held to account by science and data, provided research and social bombardment about how and why we should do better.
As a result, we need to pay, that is the message, pay to improve our environment, pay to protect our lands and democracies, pay to allow us to continue consuming the allegedly constricted supply of goods and services, pay for our inherent conscious and unconscious biases. Pay the cost because we are the problem.
Are We Doing Wrong?
I could tell you my opinion, but I think to be honest we all know that, so what about your opinion? Let’s go with that?
Do you believe that you;
Are happy about wars in our world? Or would you rather we existed in peace?
Are you doing more now than ever before to help the environment or the ecology of our planet?
Do you feel that the ‘Democracy’ that wars are fought for is true and that your truth matters?
Do you conduct your life happy that you are told you have bias towards others? Or would you rather we all just try and get along?
Ask yourself these questions and reflect on your view for a few minutes and then answer, being honest with yourself.
What Can We Do?
Whether you are responsible, or you think that others are, be that the others in your community, the people in other communities, those in power, those with money, or anyone else that we point the finger at, ultimately, we know there are so many problems, lets stop with the blame and start to take back our lives to solve those problems.

Independence Day Deception: How America Never Truly Broke Free from British Rule
Melissa Patrick
As fireworks light up the sky this July 4th, and Americans celebrate their independence, an uncomfortable truth lurks beneath the surface. Institutionalized American education isn’t as straightforward as our history books suggest.
What if I told you that the very foundations of our economic system are still under the shadow of British influence? Buckle up for a provocative dive into the real story behind Independence Day, where we will explore how French intervention won the war, the true reasons for the Revolution, and the controversial creation of the Federal Reserve that keeps America tethered to British financial power.
July 4th, a day where fireworks light up the sky, BBQs sizzle, and the spirit of patriotism sweeps across America. Independence Day is celebrated as the birth of American freedom, but beneath the layers of red, white, and blue lies a complex and often misunderstood history. Let’s peel back the star-spangled curtain and delve into the real story behind America's independence, the pivotal role of the French, the true catalysts of the Revolutionary War, and the controversial creation of the Federal Reserve.
The French Connection
When we think of the American Revolution, we often picture George Washington and the Continental Army bravely fighting off the British Redcoats. However, the reality is that the colonies' victory would have been extremely unlikely without significant help from France. In reality, France provided crucial military support, supplies, and funding. The French navy's involvement was instrumental in vital American victories. It’s safe to say that without the French, the dream of American independence might have remained that— just a dream.
Beyond the Boston Tea Party
The Boston Tea Party is often taught as the defining moment that sparked the American Revolution. While important, the roots of the conflict run much deeper. The colonies' rebellion was fueled by many grievances over British policies which imposed heavy taxes and restrictive measures on the colonies without consent.
The colonies were increasingly frustrated with being exploited for British economic gain. The British treated the colonies as mere suppliers of raw materials and consumers of British goods, creating a growing sense of resentment and a desire for self-empowerment.
The Circle Of Life
The Federal Reserve Fast forward to 1913, and we encounter another controversial chapter in American history: the creation of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve is not a government institution, but, a private entity, independent of the U.S. government. Its creation was heavily influenced by the powerful British banking financial institutions of the time.
The Federal Reserve's structure is suspiciously similar to that of the Bank of England - has Britain re-established financial influence over America? By controlling the nation's money supply and interest rates, the Federal Reserve wields immense power, often prioritizing the interests of the banking elite over those of the American public. But who is controlling the Federal Reserve?
To Summarize
As we celebrate Independence Day, I am truly grateful for all of the freedoms I have as an American to be able to freely express myself. Though, I feel it's worth reflecting on the hidden history of America. The French alliance was indispensable to winning independence, the Revolution was sparked by a complex web of economic and political grievances, and the Federal Reserve's creation has subverted true economic sovereignty.
The narrative of American independence is far from black and white-with international alliances, economic struggles, and enduring questions about who truly holds the reins of power. So, as you enjoy the fireworks and festivities, take a moment to ponder the intricate and often provocative truths that shape the story of America's quest for freedom.
Imagine the Miracle
Imagine a world, our world, flourishing, contented, nourished, and free. Everyone has what they need and is content with what they have. Everyone has shelter and enough food to eat. People live a good and respectable life and respect life around them. Animals live a good life based on their natural habitat. Rivers are clean, the ocean is clear. There is enough power and power is where it needs to be.
Imagine yourself being content, fulfilled by a good day working in your purpose and to your potential. People in your community are cordial, friendly, at ease. Stores are not crowded, there’s plenty for everyone and it’s easy to make decisions based on the ethics you follow being observed and available. There is little waist because products are made with integrity and longevity. People in workplaces and stores are happy.
Now take a deep breath. Notice your feet on the floor or on the ground and wiggle all of your toes. Let your gaze fall upon the most beautiful or interesting thing in front of you. Taking another deep breath and allow your eyes to close for a moment. Present behind those closed eyes. Allow your breath to return to its normal pace and imagine that you are attached to the Earth by a golden tether of energy, like a tree root, nourishing you. Allow your presence to fall up and back in your head and then imagine that each person you see is also attached to the Earth by a golden tether.
Now you are attached to the collective energy. Call it God, call it source, call it ancestry, we are attached to it no matter what we choose to call it. When we know where we come from, it doesn’t occur to us to bring injury to another because there would be no reason to hurt the divine.
Yet we do take for ourselves, take from others, blame, injure, and steel. We justify these things with stories we are told and stories we tell. We believe things with no foundation. We believe the first story we are told. We are not connected to our intuition or our gut knowledge which knows truth.
Regardless of whether we approach a day with intention and presence and the knowledge that we are part of the whole or we live a day of reactivity, we are connected. What injuries go around come back to us. What goodness goes into the world is goodness that shines upon us.
Ask yourself: what do I love? Not what do I need, but what do I love? Do I love war? Do I love famine? Do I love struggle? Do I love pain?
Or do I love good smells and friendly people? Do I love sound sleep? Do I love my family? Do I love Health? Do I love birds? Do I love good food? do I love the contentment of a good days work? Do I love respect? Do I love fun? do I love humor? Do I love Art? Do I love film? Do I love music? Do I love to garden? Do I love sports?
Celebrate love. Be love. Spread more love. When we do, we are healing and uniting life itself.
Miracles happen every day they happen based on the deposits to the collective consciousness of which we may not be aware. One of us makes deposits to the collective consciousness. The question is, can you receive these deposits?
Every one of us receives these deposits. We simply don’t choose over what we receive and what we get if our deposits are random, reactionary, and lack intention.
Bridge the gaps. Find the intention on the other side. Time and time again, we find that intentions are more coordinated than we first thought. We don’t want war, we want change, we want respect, we want love. These are fundamental human needs which, when we acknowledge them in one another, we can come together and create miracles. Intentional miracles born out of love and hope.
Be the change by acting with intention. Be miraculous by acting from your heart, with love. Step into your power by connecting to the collective energy. You are one with that energy. You were born of creation itself and you belong within it.
Act with love, act with purpose, and create the deposits which we would wish to receive. #lovemore
Miracles do happen. They are happening right now. Be the change. Be the intention.

From a School Teacher to a Blockchain Educator – How I Got Here
I never thought my passion for teaching would lead me to the world of blockchain. But, as fate would have it, I stumbled upon it in 2017 and was hooked.
Back in 2017, I was a schoolteacher, struggling to make ends meet. A friend had invited me to a Bitcoin Event, and I was fascinated by its potential. I wanted to learn more about this technology, and I wanted make money too, to support myself. My salary as teacher was quite meagre and couldn’t afford me much. Two months later, the same friend introduced me to an investment opportunity that seemed too good to be true. I was still new into the space and didn't know any better to my due diligence. About three months into this new found opportunity, I lost a thousand US Dollars. It was huge part of my life’s savings. In Nigeria where I live, that’s like a year’s salary for a primary school teacher at the time. For months I was devastated and confused. It was really a trying moment for me. But I didn't let that experience hold me back. Somehow, I still found the courage to continue to learn about Blockchain and its potential to transform and solve current world challenges.
About four years into my journey and though my interactions with other women, I realized there were many who still faced similar challenges like I did when I first started. There were few communities available to support women in their blockchain journey, limited access to resources tailored to their learning needs and very few female mentors in the space to share their stories and inspire other women. That's when it hit me - this was what I should be doing; helping more women learn about blockchain and how they can empower themselves with it.
But even with the vision in hand, doubts clouded my mind. Did I have what it takes to lead? Was I good enough? Amidst the whirlwind of fear and uncertainty, August 2023 became the turning point. I finally found the courage to take the first step, and Bit Queens was born.
Our mission is simple: educate, support, and empower women through blockchain education. We provide resources, mentorship through our weekly training sessions, and a safe space for women to learn and grow together. We believe blockchain can create a more equitable society, and we want to be at the forefront of that change. Today, alongside an incredible team, I lead a vibrant community of women who are educating and equipping themselves with the right knowledge and tools for financial inclusion and empowerment in the blockchain space.
So here I am, a teacher at heart, a guide in the blockchain space, extending a hand to every woman who wishes to embark on this revolutionary path. Together, we’re rewriting the script, one woman at a time!
The Joy of Being a Woman: Embracing Sisterhood and Collectivism
Being a woman is a multifaceted experience, rich with unique challenges and profound joys. One of the greatest pleasures of womanhood is the opportunity to connect deeply with other women, forging bonds of understanding, empathy, and mutual support. The strength of these relationships is rooted in a shared experience and a collective resilience that is both empowering and uplifting. I cherish being a woman not only for the individual journey it entails but also for the collective journey shared with other women. The sense of community, support, and solidarity among women is a powerful force that shapes our lives and our world.
Supporting other women is a cornerstone of my identity. In a world that often pits individuals against each other in competition, choosing to uplift and encourage fellow women is a radical act of love and solidarity. This support can take many forms: mentoring a young professional, celebrating a friend's achievements, or simply listening and offering a shoulder to lean on. Each act of support strengthens the fabric of our collective experience, fostering an environment where women can thrive. When we support one another, we create a ripple effect of positivity that extends far beyond individual interactions, impacting families, communities, and societies at large.
The concept of collectivism among women is deeply ingrained in our shared history and cultural narratives. Historically, women have often come together to face common challenges, from suffragettes fighting for voting rights to contemporary movements advocating for gender equality and social justice. This spirit of collectivism is not merely about surviving but thriving together. It is about recognizing that our fates are interconnected and that we are stronger when we stand united. Collectivism among women fosters a sense of belonging and purpose, reminding us that we are part of something greater than ourselves.
Women need to support one another because, despite the progress made towards gender equality, significant disparities and challenges remain. Gender-based discrimination, pay gaps, and underrepresentation in leadership positions are just a few of the hurdles women continue to face. By supporting each other, women can amplify their voices and advocate more effectively for change. This support is not only crucial for achieving equality but also for fostering an environment where every woman can reach her full potential. When women stand together, they can challenge societal norms and break down barriers that have long hindered their progress.
Moreover, the emotional and psychological benefits of women supporting one another are immense. In a world that often imposes unrealistic expectations and pressures, having a network of supportive women can provide a crucial source of strength and encouragement. These relationships offer a safe space where women can share their struggles and triumphs, knowing they will be met with empathy and understanding. This emotional support is invaluable, helping women navigate the complexities of their lives with confidence and resilience.
In conclusion, the joy of being a woman is intricately tied to the relationships we build with other women. Supporting one another, embracing collectivism, and recognizing the importance of unity are vital aspects of this experience. Women need to support one another not only to overcome the challenges they face but also to create a world where every woman can thrive. The bonds of sisterhood are a powerful force for change, offering a source of strength, solidarity, and hope. By uplifting each other, women can continue to make significant strides towards a more equitable and compassionate?world.
