You may have heard of the Green Lantern, the Green Hornet or the Hulk, those comic book characters from childhood. Well here I’m in my Green dune buggy mode. Life is full of ordinary people who do extraordinary things and becoming superheroes as a result. You too can be a superhero by making a difference in someone else’s life.
Be your own superhero today. You don’t need a cape or magical powers or the ability to fly. You just need to care about the welfare of your fellow humans and go the extra mile out of your comfort zone to assist them if they’re in distress. Or if you don’t want to be a rescuer, then you can still be a superhero just by being yourself and a super way. Simply by setting a super example of how to live a live worth living, you can achieve superhero status for those who are inspired by your example as a role model.
Our comic book characters mostly have supernatural powers which make them mutants or superheroes. Yet even small random, unmotivated acts of kindness in this day and age are enough to propel you to superhero status, even if just for one day. Here on this four wheel off road bike, I’m tapping into my own personal Green Machine superhero mode. Perhaps like the Hulk but without the muscles. I’ll keep the kick-ass attitude though. Hulk is good at channeling his anger at the miscreants or those motivated by wicked intentions.
You can come up with a name for your superhero archetype or alter-ego. Mine might be... The Green Grocer...no that might not have the ring that I’m aiming for. How about The Green Ranger? Yes that sounds a bit closer to my ideal. As a small child I had a toy action man called The Lone Ranger, with his horse called Silver. He was something like Zorro, or Robin Hood, a masked vigilante who rescued the poor folk from the abuses and tyranny of the nobles, who thought that they were superior to other human beings.
Since I’m keen on the green, and prefer to live in natural green surroundings filled with trees and forest, I am happy to identify with the color green as a sign of fresh and healthy life and vitality. Green also implies the heart chakra in yoga technology. We talk about a heart of gold which is also valid, yet there is the loving heart of healthy green too.
Health and organic natural vitality is found in and among the trees and forests of the planet, those that have not been destroyed by short-sighted consumers. We should be preserving our natural environment, not chopping it down in an unsustainable manner to feed some other desires. That is a win-lose scenario which will not end well for anyone in years to come. Rather we should look for a win-win scenario, or no game. We should keep the forests while simultaneously cultivating arable land for food crops.
Today, more than ever before, individuals need to focus on growing their own food. The global system is crumbling. The supply chains are teetering on collapse. The mono crop industrial agriculture practice is not only fuelled by toxic fertilizers and pesticides that poison the environment, but they also damage and deplete the soil. I don’t claim to have the answer to world hunger or food production but I do know that we should all be living closer to nature.
The drive to push people off the land and into cities is unhealthy and only feeds the elite agenda to control a malleable work force who are unable to fend for themselves because they have been stripped of land and the knowledge of how to grow food. Subsistence farming or self-sufficient independent food production is becoming outlawed in certain places around the world as the globalist technocrats try to control the paradigm and the people. As The Green Ranger, my service is to return to masses to their rightful place on the land with their own ability to capture rain water and grow food for themselves. Perhaps because I was born and raised in South Africa, it seems obvious to me that people should have land of which there is plenty and they should farm that land.
I live in a big country with lots of space. Some of the best farmers in the world (of Dutch ancestry) have lived and farmed here for centuries, producing world class exports of fruit and vegetables to feed the world as well as the locals. We might not all have the space, so the idea is to cultivate a garden even in your city apartment by using a technique called vertical farming. This requires stacking multiple layers of window boxes up the wall to save floor space.
Now we just need to ensure that seed is still available in the shops. The way things are going today, it looks like Big Brother wants to outlaw private gardens and might remove seeds from our shelves. That’s when my Robin Hood superhero – the Green Ranger – emerges on the scene to remind everyone of the importance of going green by growing your own. Save and store seeds, and grow whatever greens you can to supplement your food supply. These “Victory Gardens” as they were known in World War 2, may be you life support in the times to come, where mass famine and empty shelves reach every town and city.
