President's Day

President's Day is a day that congress used to combine both Lincoln and Washington's birthdays so that federal employees would get another excuse to get a free holiday from work. Originally, as when I grew up, February was celebrated for the two most famous presidents in the USA, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. I remember classrooms decorated with pictures of George and Abe Lincoln, teaching each and every schoolchild about the two most famous presidents of the nation. George, because he is the first president of the USA, a commander in chief of the army during the American Revolution, then known as general, but today recognized for his Chief status since each president is automatically considered commander in chief, and Abraham Lincoln, famous for his effort to emancipate the slaves, and to therefore get himself assassinated for dividing the nation at a time when the South was making huge profits from trading human lives.

Lincoln became revered for his stand, and has stood the test of time as no other issue in American history has gained so much attention as that of human bondage and slavery.

George Washington is the first president to free his slaves at the death of his wife Martha, but he is not ever given much attention or credit for that. The topic of slavery remains a sore point in both north and south relations.

Because I have late in my life come to learn of reincarnation and have taken seriously the study of lives revealed to me through hypnotic adventures, I have come to grips with the concept of slavery. The Bible teaches that we are slaves of the flesh which when it comes to food and fashion there is little doubt that that is true.

But human slavery is a condition in life in which certain people take advantage of other people's personal weaknesses and enslave them somehow in a lifestyle that is alien to human nature, whether that be slaves for personal labor or sex slaves which is common in the world today.

Because I have a personal interest in Washington now, I did delve into the problem of his having owned the slaves that he inherited from his father. His struggle with his slaves often reminds me of my own personal problems when a teacher at Gladstone High School in California. The slaves were often times doing to Washington what some of my students did to me. That has always struck me as so interesting to consider. Life repeats itself all the time, one way or the other.

Well, anyway, I celebrated President's day by a shopping spree and treated myself to two new pair of pants and a blouse from Dillard's Department Store. I found two pair of Allison Daley pants that fit me to a tee and a blouse to wear, all for an economical price! Happy President's Day, and my colors were red and white. One red pair of pants, one red blouse, and one white pair of pants. The creamy white cost only $6.00. The others were $17 and $14. Good deal! Huh!

I am going to have to edit posts to recall each video I posted in the past few days. The Reims Cathedral came after a discussion at the Louis XIV group about Sandra Taylor's next trip to France where she hopes to visit Reims. In my effort to learn everything I could about the King of France, Louis XIV, I actually found myself back in his person at his coronation which was in Reims. I remember mostly the archbishop's mitre (hat that he wears during ceremony) and the enormous robe that the King wore when he was officially crowned ruler of France. I recall vividly that Saint Michael the Archangel was present at that occasion and that he played a very responsible role to me in that lifetime. I can recall seeing his visage while at that coronation. Only I can know anything about that, but I recall it so well as he was visible to my eyes, and he was in allwhite. I still think of that now even as I remembered it when I visited the wikipedia website this evening to read about the coronation ceremony there. Nothing is mentioned there of Saint Michael but he was a special patron saint to and for the King, of which I am very certain. Also, I did make a comment at the discussion group about it, recalling that the king is really quite a young boy when this occasion occurred to him. There is a portrait of the coronation on the woven tapestries made for him at the Savonrie Gallery (spelling check needed here so will correct that eventually.) Posting now

The two or three videos about Deep Web is a result of a post at Abovetopsecret. There is something called Tor which is also a part of youtube but I could not find it through search engine so will return to ATS to get the correct title to put it here too. Reason for placing all this here is to have it where I can find it as they disappear fast on ATS with so many topics coming in.

I have to recheck the previous videos as I have frankly forgotten what they are.
