Our reality is based on certainty.

Certainty comes from our grasp of evidence and information we’ve accumulated over our lifetime.

Throw a ball up in the air it comes right back down. No matter how hard you or anyone else throws it

It comes back down

If you drive a car across the country without putting any gas in it you’ll end up breaking down on the side of the road.

It is certain.

Sometimes you are certain due to past experiences, evidence and subjective environments. “I am certain it will be hot if we go to that festival in Charleston next August.”

One thing is for certain. We don’t like when our certainty is being questioned. We don’t like questioning our own certainty.

There’s a large, LARGE mass of us questioning it right now.

The people we were certain had the capacity of helping us

Our heroes

Our past ones too

Our history

Our religion or our faith in our beliefs.

Our country being the beneficiary of that foam hand with the big finger exclaiming number one status.

Jesus

God

Heaven and Hell

You can Google the two types of certainty I’m not a scholar by any means. I write what I feel is certain and then I’ll research what may not be. If I’m not certain how to interpret my own thoughts and words I’ll look it up so I don’t fuck it up. Even if I’m almost certain. I certainly don’t want to get caught with my pants down.

Anyway here we go

Epistemic certainty – relies on solid evidence and rationality. Beliefs are considered true and indisputable. Gravity, death and taxes.

Certitude – subjective certainty. A conviction of being or feeling right. Your beliefs cause by cognitive biases and confirmation bias.

Religion falls under this category as does some political ideology for a lot of you. Parental upbringing, environment.

We get reeeeeal uncomfortable when something we’ve been certain about our whole lives becomes the uncertainty.

Easy going certainty – “ah it’s raining, this little umbrella should keep me dry.”

*opens umbrella and then wind blows it inside out. Fabric tears

“I was certain if I brought my umbrella with me I’d stay dry!”

Big time certainty – “if that storm comes I’m certain my roof over my home will be fine.”

*tree falls on house, wind blows roof off of your home.

Most of us have been carrying around that same umbrella, hugging the awnings, walking under balconies as we walk hoping we don’t have to use that umbrella we used to be certain would keep us dry.

Now many of us are entering the roof phase.

A big storm is on the horizon. Possibly the biggest we’ve ever experienced.

You’re about to have a lifetime of certainty ripped out of your hands.

Or

The storm may just fly right over your heads.

A few of you won’t even see the clouds. It’s not that you’re ignorant. Your self certainty may keep you dry until the roof falls on your head over time. We don’t like our certainties challenged.

Don’t let your certainties limit you. That’s exactly what the plan has always been.

If they’ve been stripped away don’t lose your ever loving mind and burn the earth down.

That’s what they want to. Fodder from your emotions.

Real soon

We are all going to question our certainties.

Religion is going to be the hardest for a lot of you. Probably the biggest. What you’ve been told and taught may not resonate the same way. I’m not here to tell you what is true or false. My certainties on this subject is just like yours. Certitude.

Subjective.

Some of you are in for a big surprise. I won’t go further into this discussion. It’s impossible to question another’s belief system without them getting uptight. My customer base is smack dab in the middle of the Bible Belt.

I need customers.

Government umbrella? Well if you are the type of person that the government is here to help us well then boy howdy you’re gonna have a hard time with that one.

Seek shelter quickly. Also for the love of god stop the adulation of politicians. Any of them.

Your certainty for healthcare and medicine

Certainty of the food you eat. Even the “organic” brands are poisoning you.

If you’re plugged into this machine you have to raise your eyebrow and notice a shitload of pimples are coming to a head at one time.

A perfect storm.

No I’m not spouting revelations. Turn that knob down for a bit it’s been blaring in your ears your whole life.

Side note: what would you do if revelations had already happened years and years ago?

I don’t discuss religion much. We’ve all been taught to take what has been taught as a certainty or its eternal damnation.

Certainty by scare tactics.

Just like the government teaches us about the “evil empires” of Russia, China and Iran.

Can’t root for the good guy without inserting the bad guy.

Thank god we’ve had Sylvester Stallone beating their asses during the Cold War we created.

Man I sure miss shoving my body under my desk as a kid to practice for nuclear wars. Let’s scare the shit out of little Timmy before recess. I used to watch planes fly over my home as a kid and I’d wonder if it was a Russian missile. I was certain that we were all going to die in a nuclear holocaust. Hell they even made a movie about it and wait, WAIT! Then they made us watch it in school.. I can still see the person getting fried to dust while standing by the link fence. 40 years later.

Hey it worked!

We are certain about how we feel about countries we’ve never stepped foot on. By who we are certain we can trust

It’s crumbling down now.

London fucking bridges folks

Time to recalibrate your certainties.

The system is shit. Always has been. You’ve been taught and trained to swim in it. Keep close to the sides so you don’t get flushed down the drain with your uncertainties.

The world is in salt shaker mode.

“Are we all going to die Chad?”

We are energy. Energy doesn’t die. Once you make that a certainty your reality changes focus a bit.

I’m not here to question your certainties. It’s not my job or place. All I’m saying is let go a little. Don’t absorb all the stress that’s deliberately being thrown at you.

Observe

Don’t

Absorb

Stop yelling at each other. We all need to observe and pay attention. No that doesn’t mean you can’t rage from time to time just don’t rage on your neighbors.

It’s fodder for the ones we need to starve out.

I’m not a prophet. I’d laugh at that. I’ve had this intuition my entire life that I would witness something big. Couldn’t tell you what, where, who or when? Just that feeling in your gut, a fly buzzing in my brain that I would experience something very profound. 2024 my intuition told me that 2025 my life would change. And indeed it did sitting in my tent on an island.

And then it poked my head and said “2026”

And that was it

Me- “2026 what?”

*crickets

Me now in 2026- “oh. Ok. So this may be it? Or the beginning?”

*very slight nod

Am I certain? I think I may throw that word out for a bit. Maybe you should too if you don’t like surprises. I’ve started questioning too many certainties of late.

As I should have all along.

Set your alarms to new times yall. Wake up.

What does that mean Chad?

I’m not certain.

Stop yelling at your friends and neighbors. The noise is distracting you.

That I am certain

Peace ☮️
