Our Quest for Freedom: Motivating
[This is from my latest book Our Quest for Freedom and other essays]
Our culture’s story is a tragic one and has to be told so that we understand the gravity of where we stand – or, rather, where we cower! – today.
But our story, our myth, also tells how we get out of this. It tells us that all the heroes who step forward, regardless of whether they become martyrs, form part of a victorious struggle.
The role of a martyr is not to win a war, but, with their life-sacrificing courage, to encourage others to risk everything for the sake of our freedom.
The role of a myth is not just to tell the story of what has happened to us and what we would like to happen next, but to help make that reality become true.
A myth is no more a mere story than a prophecy is a mere prediction. Both have the purpose of shaping reality, forging the future.
As well as manifesting the archetypal desires within us, they articulate the will with which we can meet those desires.
They are our yearning made explicit, projected ahead of us into the place into which we long to advance.
They are our hope, but not of the kind that passively waits for someone else to come and save us.
They are hope as determination, hope as faith, hope as meaning.
This hope shimmers ahead of us on the path. It is real because we have put it there. It is part of us, in fact, reaching out tentatively to feel and touch the future for which we yearn.
It is our Holy Grail and our own holy essence, the best part of us, combining our sense of righteousness and our will to action, which we send ahead of us to light the way and guide us to greater things.
Our quest is to become again what we always really were.
Our quest is to be free, as individuals, to express all that we are, all that we value, all that we desire.
Our quest is to be free, as communities, to express all that we are, all that we value, all that we desire.
Our quest is to reclaim the power to create our own lives, our own cultures, our own future.
Nobody has the right to take that away from us. Our myth, the joyful expression of our own inspiration, tells us that we are going to seize it back.
Our freedom! Our culture! Our future!

So very true - and, may I say, so very British also. Unfortunately the vast majority of the British people have forgotten their true historical narrative, and have taken on a false Establishment narrative about British history - for example one which actually portrays all the monarchs of the country since 1066 as 'British' - despite none of them being that at all.
Then there's the watered down version of the Robin of Loxley story - I have a different version of that set in the year 1066, in which Robin leads the resistance against the evil fascist Normans - obviously, there's no 'merry men' involved and he's destined to fail, but it's the inspiration to resist that is the most important thing.
In my version he gets this from his wife, who is a Celt, and has told him all about Boudicca, who did not lose, she won, because she not only inspired a permanent understanding of the necessity of resistance into the British people (and, most likely, indigenous populations in Europe too) and also forced the Romans to stop their genocidal policy towards natives, instead turning to the protection racket which, at the very least, allowed their culture - and therefore their identity as a people - to survive. That's why she won. The story must survive. Because human beings see the world (and themselves, and their own identity, cultural and personal) through stories.
Again unfortunately, the British people have forgotten all knowledge of this - and furthermore the Establishment (the criminocracy etc.) have understood this psychological fact, and thus project a fraudulent, deceitful, manipulative version of history onto people (partly via the 'education' system). And this informs people's identity and of course opinions.
The best example or proof of this is that rather than voting for Boudicca as the most obvious (and only, in my view) candidate for 'greatest Briton who ever lived', the British people actually voted for the worst Briton who ever lived, Winston Churchill! (who, we should remember, was hardly even British). This is a perfect measure of the level of narrative control the cabal have over the people.
And it's not just Britain, of course.
Thus, I agree absolutely - we must regain control over the narrative. And part of that means exposing the falsehood and the deceitful purpose of the cabal's narrative.
This, lol, may also be why we become conspiracy theorists! At least, it should be...
Nice!
