I'm another geriatric aka another old hippie. I've had strange feelings (make that stranger than usual) feelings since the tsunami. That day, I felt like a crack had opened in time...a little slip into another dimension. The following months have been odd...at some times, life speeds by and peoples' emotions seem to be all on the surface...there is a nervous, edgy, freaky feeling. At other times, I feel at great peace and in touch with the universe.
I DO feel that we've entered into some kind of divide..the life we will live is not the life we lived before. Things that were unthinkable are thinkable. This isn't all doom and gloom. While I feel some terrible things will occur, I also feel some wonderful things will happen as well.
I don't know...I'm rambling...Ithe only way I can express it is by saying we have all stepped over the precipice and things will never be the same.

Yes there was a tighter cntrol of morals and manners 20 years ago as opposed to now.
Its sad in one way but it does show an expansion that has to happen in order for mankind to learn from his errors.
What causes this bad manners and relaxation of morals? Is it frustration with today's society and the future it has to offer? Is it a degradation in society taking us back to base instincts of fending for oneself? Is it the undercurrent that has always been there lying under the surface hidden but now bursting and outgrowing it's chains.
With the new found freedoms also come a loss of a freedom, freedom of speech moves aside and makes place for political correctness.

Ok well it may have been from reading and replying in this thread but I had another volcano dream last night.
I was looking out to sea, was dark and early about 3 to 4 am and on the eastern horizon was the usually clouds..live in the tropics always clouds in the sky.
Anyhows Im looking out and then realised the the band of cloud on the horizon straight out from my town Cairns ? (some things were slightly different) was actually smoke rising thick and fast from a baby volcano forming on the seabed.
The detail was amazing. I can still picture in my mind the band of smoke going up and coming towards the coast. It was a dirty browny grey colour and so thick. I saw no lava or fire in the dream just this endless thick smoke rising from the seabed.... The sky as dawn came on turned an errie colour. like a dull browny coloured doom. The boats were all coming back into harbour so there was smatterings of boat lights all around the bay.

There's no need to explain more right now, because it will all come to light in time.
