I remember so many things she said and I thought she was nuts. Now looking back she was way ahead of her time.
I remember in 1973 or 1974 she was in her late 50's. I was in high school.
We were talking and she said out of nowhere that the Government has a cure for cancer. I said mom your nuts. She said think about it if they cured cancer the American Cancer Society is a million dollar industry. Doctors would be out of work who specialized in cancer. Hospital equipment and wings would be shut down. Then Big Pharma would lose millions. They will need another disease as big as cancer to come around before you will see a cure.
I remember shaking my head and saying mom why would the Government let innocent people die? She said they just don't care about people only power and money.
She also aways said she didn't understand why she didn't like the Chinese and China. She wouldn't even drink tea. She would say I just don't understand my gut feelings.
Then my older brother took a job with a three letter agency I won't name. My mother looked up at him with her finger pointed in his face and said don't you dare do any underhanded thing to disgrace this family.
My mom was into Q and she didn't know it.
Amazing how much smarter our parents are when we get older!
My daughter & son (in their 30's, university grads, I am not) aren't quite to that point in realizing pops is genius... though, some day will... and that in itself will be Biblical... least in my own lil world ;)
If they love you, you already gave them the path and the key. Respect for your wisdom will eventually come...
Right?
Funny how that works.
