    Stories from the old days

    I get weary of reading and watching what's going on in the world these days and it's nice to step back and listen to the older people recount their stores of their lives. I've been around a lot of old people and listened to their stories that have passed on and I miss them. I grew up poor and had to work like the people in the videos I'm going to post. I like the old time music too.

    Another video I've enjoyed watching.

    I'm going to quote a comment that follows this video that has the ring of truth to it before I post the video.


    "
    BellicoseNation2 years ago

    It's funny how (according to this vid) whites came for greed yet who says that about Mexicans or the Chinese (etc) when they come? Whites did what no group in history had ever done before... they actually bothered to buy off Indians and even make treaties which even in their imperfect state was much kinder than even Indians treated each other. Even so we (at every opportunity) get White-hate repeated over and again."

    None of us can fathom the vast store of wisdom and knowledge lost in the last century as traditional models of wisdom & knowledge transmission, from elders to youngers, was erased by structured "education," mass media, and warfare.

    Cultures across the planet have been homogenized by "education" and mass media. The entire Earth has drank from Mystery Babylon's deadly cup.

    Enjoy these videos, and, if possible, enjoy these stories in real life, if you have access to elders who matured before the age of Talmudvision. There's only a few more years before the last generation that represented real culture disappears.
    The night has come upon us, and we have but two choices: to fear it, or to face it bravely while looking to the Light that cannot be overcome. John 8:12

    Re: Stories from the old days

    This is a video that has a song that has Celtic roots and I really like it. Below this video I'll post another video of a Bluegrass Festival documentary. If you advance the second video to the 25:00 mark Tim O'Brien and his group play this song again live and he speaks of the roots of bluegrass music. Sometimes the time is off when I've posted a time mark to advance to so I'll see what happens.

    These Bluegrass festivals are a celebration of the music that comes from white european culture and they're very white. The ones I've been to were attended and enjoyed by all ages from little kids to old people. They've all been very civilized and christian. People come on friday evenings and leave on Sundays after listening to the performers play gospel music on Sunday.

    There's another song that I heard in the background of that documentary while they were talking that I really like. Tim O'Brien does it and I found a version of it he did with Mary Chapin.

    Like I Used to Do

    There was a time when we'd be the last to leave

    Watching the sun come up while everyone fell asleep

    The music was always loud and I?d smoke and drink too much

    Until I'd fall in your arms and into your lovin' touch

    Now as the years roll by, time has reeled me in

    I've slowed down a notch or two from the way things were then


    Those old ways of mine, I've left them behind

    Those crazy days are through

    The only thing I still do like I used to do

    Is carry this torch for you


    Remember the days when we'd pack our bags and run

    Chasing a crazy dream into the morning sun

    Now as the twilight falls, I find I'm satisfied

    Watching the fire glow as long as you're by my side

    Here in my heart it seems, time has passed me by

    I love you as much today as the very first time


    Those old ways of mine, I've left them behind

    Those crazy days are through

    The only thing I still do like I used to do

    Is carry this torch for you


    I still want you the way I wanted you then

    If I could do it all over, I'd do it all over again


    Those old ways of mine, I've left them behind

    Those crazy days are through

    The only thing I still do like I used to do

    Is carry this torch for you
