Wii change into the incredible Beings Wii are meant to yet become.
Be all that you can so that those who look to you for guidance see results,
the example of your works, not just baited words,
clickbait for the soul is distraction in the Matrix.
If I had been given some of the tools to see, to know,
I might have done more in this life and because of that,
I give the tools for others to see, to excel earlier and
shoot higher than I have to accomplish things that
will make my works look like nothing but the launching platform.
May you all find success and reach heights I never dreamt were possible.
My purpose is to help train you so as to avoid the traps,
get up your speed, confidence, and ability through the works you do,
not the words you say, so as to be ready for that day.
You can Trust me… such a time will come your way when life skills, not fashion or trappings will determine your fate.
Blessings to you all and to your night that leads to the new day.
You plan once enlightened,
free from the load of the past,
Light ignited by your passion for your purpose and future,
thus no longer impaled by the belief
that you are here to simply work, consume, pay taxes, and die.
You are here to live, to Be, in a world where Being means more
than one who watches others suffer, lie, and die
rather than participate in the game of life…
of creating and preparing a world to leave behind
that you would want to be born back into.
You know, the Heaven
rather than the Hell on Earth
which Wii create for us and others
who get to live here for a lifetime or more.
You have the choice to Honor that Truth, Love and Light as One… Some call God who prefers no great evil is allowed to Thrive here on Earth!
I give the tools for free so that others will see so to excel earlier, shoot higher, and accomplish more that will make this look like nothing but a launching platform to an alternative future in sustainable housing for those choosing to Live Free.

You can make The debate for President is not a meet me in the middle argument, But he stood up to the enemy of the innocent whom Wii must protect.
not even a little pedophilia,
lying,
cheating, and
killing innocents and
Americans without trial till Sunday,
then getting forgiven by the Pope or local vocal self-declared voice of God,
and going at war again after a few drinks or drugs
to forget the atrocities already committed in the name of money,
power,
religion, or
control for all the wrong reasons.
(My dad was excommunicated in 1959, confessing his vasectomy after 3 kids in 4 years to a woman he did not love when the first was created)
yet abortion support is fine for Catholic presidents? wow?!
Clearly, there are two sides to start with and the lawyers create a gray area in the middle
much like muck or mud that obscures and even creates the slippery slope
Using secrets, sex, bribes, and favors that compromise truth,
turning into commissions, omissions, missions of war, and death.
Evil does not create a world of beauty, instead
Never more love,
more happiness,
more babies that could be incredible geniuses that solve the problems of the world raised by people like me who would give them a chance
instead of be casually cut out, cut up, and turned into a vaccine… in the world now.
War is wrong! It can be stopped, but not by evil leaders.
The worst war on humanity begins against the unborn babies,
the remaining children dumbed down by bad schools using Common Core
Brain retarding/gutting techniques to break the functions early in life
through confusion, conformity, delay at a critical thinking, questioning,
at a time of unique development never matched in its potential for life.
Children at the lowest levels in school need the most help
yet get the least in many places where the incentive is to keep them down,
or corporate prisons with docile well behaved prisoners who work cheap.
Oh, that was what Kama was setting up wasn’t it,
a way to bring those slave wage jobs back
like China model with the Uygars and Bid-on resistors
bringing his son in to help set up the FEMAKama training camps
run by AOC and company.
Joy oh Joy…
Texit, Texit, Texit all the way!

Fictional excerpt from the Book of Wibblry and Wub
I had a dream last night and took a picture before the images fades away. This is what it looked like, as much as I can dig up of the memory that is… thanks to photoshop and the matrix, this is not real to most who might spy it. This, in my fantasy land, a dream, a vision, a place to run and hide from the world outside my gates.
Imagine all I could dig up in 5 months as I turned 64, alone to fuel, grease, and play, my sandbox is one that few can say they get to play in.
Now with miles of shoreline, 18′ deep waters where not one inch remained for days after any rain, less than 10 years ago.
But just a dream my friends… all those who know that no one could do that alone thus it is not there.No, I will not be taking pictures on the shores of Lake Michigan (brrrrrr), nor the mountains of the west, to far to go. I dreamt this up in central Texas, outside the cities of Austin, San Antonio, and high above Houston, a paradise in the form of a micro ecosystem of permaculture, imagination, fauna, flora, and a simpler life off the grid for the most part is possible, proven, and a place you can visit, dream, learn, buy the parts to take away, and build your Salvage, Texas somewhere far away. Few get to live here full time, some for a bit of time to learn and spawn new Pure Salvage Outposts financed inventory and mentoring, so as to grow the Pure Salvage Living Renaissance around the globe from the birthplace of Tiny Texas Houses, Salvage, Texas of course.
But instead of thinking this fantasy can not be done, why not come see. Perhaps someone actually took a dream or two combined, added some phenomena and miracles to create a vision much like this… which does not exist of course… but if it did, I do believe it is now the largest Earth Sculpture in the land… at least created by one old man…
or so we were taught to think Wii would be “old” these many decades away from high school now.
But do not believe it, please, and do not tell anyone it is real, they might object to manifesting without protesting but I love my life, a fantasy manifesting as I work through day by day.
Savor your days, make waves, and build sandcastles that will last a lifetime after you are gone.
Bit of cold for a day, but like life and pain, it will go away.
It is never to late to create instead of just wait… for what?
Have faith there are better times ahead once the darkness clears away. Be ready to thrive by doing new things to stay alive. Love you all.

Wake up to a world full of hope, fun, and a great breakfast in bed. Savor the moments that form the memories of tomorrow in case the days are not as bright then as now, for today is what makes your life incredible as it paves the path to your future. Salvage, Texas is a place where people can come to dream, see the unlimited potential in themselves to heal, and grow a vision into a great life.
Ah, for the bright morning in our youth, the days bright and a future ahead full of excitement, promises, and hopefully fulfillment and happiness. To be young, to be positive, to hold onto your dreams, that is what Salvage, Texas exemplifies, the chance to dream and live to fulfill them to create memories you can cherish, as will others, long after this life is spent.
From the worst looking houses, barns, buildings, and lives, the most incredible things and futures can be constructed. By using the toughest parts that survived the hardships, weathered it out, and this can survive what comes if you construct your home, your life, with the best of parts, the Truths, not lies. Actions stem from thought nurtured in what world… as you perceive it to be… thus the need for perspicuity seldom found in our society.
Wisdom requires experience, yet so many young, barely out of home, think they know all things already. Stay open to learning and be autodidactic. Be positive in the way you see the morning and day evolve and you will find better memories when they are done.
In 11 evenings with no nails, a dream manifested upon a hill, a place to think, to see afar, to look and know just who you are… alone, high upon a hill made by your own hands, a pile of memories you will one day call your life. What does your Ship of Salvaged Dreams look like when you are done living the life here down below?
Thank you for sharing our world of dreams manifested, salvaged from the dreams of others, many fulfilled and lived out, then the creators, the actors in the play of life, moved on. Wii are here to salvage that past many of us want for in this transition from a past no one can return to as Wii move into a World Union of Beings or a prison planet with few choices made freely and everyone wearing masks, social distancing, and throwing millions of masks into the ocean day by day until suffocation follows.
Can you get under the gate when it is locked to the normal person unprepared, to fat to fit in tight places when the time comes to move? Why not prepare for tomorrow today?
It’s time to climb under the gate, get out of the traps of our society, and create a new future, a new America based on the original plan, not the modified plan that communism brings with it. I vote for another stab at democracy without the elite writing all the rules in their favor, sort of like the original constitution allowed for, and was modified accordingly to prevent the abuse of power. Let’s enforce that now and get rid of the corrupted version put upon America in the 19th century. It is not our Truth!
My sister had the hairdoo, my brother cowlicks, and me… geeksville glasses. The drugs were working for mom and life was special…

Don’t just be a shadow on the shoreline of life. Make ripples dive into the liquid crystal pool of experience, action, and memories to carry with you long after life is spent. Edit

Understanding that each of us creates our own challenges to overcome in life, the Spirit’s obligations or purpose in life requires forced change sometimes. Wii are all One and the pain as well as the bliss is not distributed evenly but is available for most to choose from, based on their own decisions, perspective, and actions. Wii can empower people, even cure them of disease they have caused themselves, but enabling bad behavior will not stop it… so they have to learn some things by themselves, and then get out of the cold.
Bath in alkali water, breath from the belly, charge the battery at the root of the spine and fire up the Chakras, scalar wave engines that make miracles possible through a vessel Wii are instructed to honor in order to benefit all Wii meet on this journey through life. Grounding with bare feet or leather soles will allow you to move the energies through you and form the flow to create a reality Wii would like to manifest rather than be a victim to the one which others create with the intention of controlling us.
A little here, a bit more there, a spindle or two, a corbel pair, all rare and salvaged, some a century and a half since they came off the buildings or houses that they adorned for a century before they were salvaged.
The trees, such as the Redwoods that formed the blue posts, or the Cypress trees that formed the spindles, corbel, or even the Long Leaf Pine trees that form the floor and much more were all trees that had lived for 800 years before the cut to form such beautiful things.
Here are some of the piles of wonderful woodcut from ancient trees long before electricity, in a day when tokens were given to workers in the lumber industry in Texas, never cash. Truly these knot-free slices of trees that were 135 feet tall, Long Leaf Pine being the hardest, most resistant to rot, strongest, and most resistant to bugs of all the 77 species of Pine in America. To bad, we cut all the mature stock down by the 1940’s and none is due to mature for cutting for another few hundred years. If you want to have it, use it, preserve it, salvage is the only way.I do have a hundred thousand square foot of warehouses full of stock and now that wood has quintupled in value, you can buy good wood at my prices for nearly the same as crappy big box store wood. Why not build a smaller quality wood house instead of a bigger shitrock and vinyl house?
Why do people not want to create with such incredible things as salvage brings into the creative fold for building houses, cottages, and homes for those who roam? It is not the size nor the neighborhood that truly makes a hOMe, it is the place where the heart can rest, dreams flourish with your family best, and love will last to pass the test to be rewarded, thus be blessed. Keep the faith, take action instead of being paralyzed by fear when the stress of change is coming near.
The Bridge Over Untroubled Waters represents what is possible when you leave the past behind and venture into the future without the baggage that holds most people back. See the Ship of Salvaged Dreams upon Miracle Mountain and take faith in the Light you can see up above. One Source of Energy is undeniably there for us to tap if Wii have faith and take action to make our dreams, our visions others think are impossible, yet Wii proceed to manifest them and thus exemplify what Faith can do.Prepare to Light up and lead others, ignite the passion for Truth, Peace, and Unity… so Wii can all be Free.
Micro-Loans at 0% interest for honest people to build homes, businesses, and more out of great materials, human energy, barter, and imagination.
It is the time to get into the business of creating houses out of Salvage. If you do, you will be able to create a life of riches from what others thought was trash. More millionaires are made from Salvage Mining, Building, and reselling than any other industry in the USA. Now it will boom since so many will finally see the value of great wood.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing and caring about the Pure Salvage Living Renaissance… living and being the solutions to what the world needs by the way Wii live and form tomorrow.

It is not a business that just anyone would want to do… creating housing out of the salvaged materials from past houses, barns, stores, and structures first assembled a century or more in the past. It takes a creative spirit that enjoys taking dissimilar objects from many houses to create one that will be unique, artistic, and last for a lifetime if one takes care of it. When you create a special Art House that is unlike any other, people will take better care of it, as if a giant jewelry box with the greatest of all treasures inside, Peace and Privacy, safety from the storms.
How would you get into the business of building tiny organic cottages if you are not able to go out and buy the doors, windows, flooring, siding, interior skins for the ceiling, walls, bathroom? If you were fortunate and have the cash to go and buy all the materials and then build a house in hopes of living in it or selling it, that will take a good chunk of cash out of your bank account or add a big chunk to your credit cards. There is another way to get started though, for some it could mean partnering up with someone who has a bit of carpentry knowledge, perhaps an old-time carpenter who is wise but arthritic and thus can share experience and advice, the two things most kids do not have to get started.
If you have a place, like a barn or building to create inside of, all the better so you can take a bit of time to build the outside framework and skins, install the windows, and roll it outside to finish while you start another inside. If done right, with helpers who might also then become homeowners when they get the hang of building, get the materials they will need through bartering their help working for windows, doors, and other parts they can not find or afford in the big box stores. Micro-financing the items would make it even easier as most are a bit tight on money in 2020.
Please visit the Youtube channels for Tiny Texas Houses, Pure Salvage Living, and Brad Kittel (artistic or crazy stuff) for more information and images of House Art created in Salvage, Tx. SalvageTx.com for reservations to our BnB. Come see, dream, savor in amazement and go back to change the world and Thrive. 830-875-2500 to leave a message.
To that end, an easy means to finance the bulk of the cost of materials for honest people to build a tiny organic cottage from vintage materials, toxin and import free, all American like me. I am offering up a package of materials and custom designs so that some of the possible Organic Cottage Builders of the future can get started today, learn the loopholes and methods, then soar in a career few are even aware is booming on the horizon as our society downsizes and becomes concerned about living a healthy life.
At 65 years old and having suffered a life of scoliosis, I have never known such great health, life, or passion. See there is another path and then take it so you can show others that miracle are possible, we can enjoy or later years more than the early ones, as can be seen in Salvage, Texas. Salvage Mind, Body, Home and Spirit
Gratitude for what you have, but if you can not see the opportunity at your fingertips and you miss it, the lack of perspicuity is your problem not the lack of opportunity if you could just see it, take action, and aim for the stars. Then, with passion ignited, nothing can stop you.
We now know the environment, diet, exercise, and attitude are what determine if life is Heaven or Hell for those who suffer from failing to properly care for their vessel, the body that houses their soul. We can make a big difference on our health by removing as much stress as possible, like big payments, utility bills, taxes, and other distractions from being happy. Why not simplify and thrive instead? Be healthy and get younger instead.
Some do not believe in such things but still need housing and an appreciation for the work done by our ancestors to create these treasured stockpiles of incredible resources disguised as derelict buildings, houses, and in need of dismantling so that the parts can be reused to create hOMes. Please consider helping get a young person impassioned with what they could to do to change the world, one house at a time for the millions who will need them as the society transitions from abundance to scarcity for many. More children now live with their parents after reaching adult age than in the Great Depression and it is not getting better soon. Please consider how we can grow this trend in a positive manner and allow for the re-consolidation of family and the creation of new tiny communities for those who have no family to fall back to for help, no support network left but able to help create one that all who participate can benefit from too.
Appraising the wood, the houses, the possible treasures can be done by house inspectors or old guys like me who can see it all on your cell phone from afar and consult without driving into that nasty cold weather you are having up north. Consultation building, designing, and moving can also all be done with the wonders of instant video and pictures in everyone’s smart phone these days so that you can find out if the termites, wood bores, toxic contamination from asbestos, chemicals, or pesticides should stop you from taking a place down.
This can now be done and the micro-financing to help you get started building where you are instead of here is now in place to pay for the most important materials. You would still need some skin in the game by purchasing you own screws, nails, wiring, insulation, house wrap, roof underlayment, but little else if you choose to join and be part of the Pure Salvage Outpost network that will ensure you have a mentor when it looks like you hit a stopping point, a frustration that makes you want to burn the project down, or the people that may cause the same reaction. Don’t freak out, call your Salvage Shaman.
That is enough for this write as it is hard to hold attention for too long these days. If you have more questions and want to get into the Salvage Industry… contact [email protected] or [email protected]

Once upon a time an open field with nary a tree, 3′ of red clay on top of the ground, and a dream of ponds, caves, and giant rocks came into view.So with such a view and needing something incredible to do for my 64th year on this planet so blue, I decided to dig till my vision came true. Isn’t that what you would do? Along the way a few rocks I display as the product of hours of work, and the water is pure to be so much a cure for the world of great pains and deep aches.
I am Halfway into a dream that never ends, how far is that? I have seen so many things that I have once thought of as fact. I have wondered at the miracles that others spoke of in my life. I have lived some and believe in them thus seldom feel strife.
Some wonder how this land could turn from desolate to fine. How Rocks as big as this can lie so hidden, just to find? How waters come to fill the holes, to make this One you see, The sands now full of life, so green, the nutrients now free.
Fish and frogs, birds and dogs, kids all ages run and swim, walking barefoot, grounding all ways, mud, clean air to breathe. Treat your Vessel as God wanted, grow to be your best, Come and visit Salvage, Texas where the proof is in the test.
Imagination with intention, your focus, and your will combined with action to move forward ever higher still. What can you do? I say to you, see what I’ve done this year. If an old guy does this all alone, can’t others thus see clear?
Believe in You, the miracle that came from your mother’s womb. Don’t let down all the generations once you’re in your tomb. Give your life to making great phenomena appear! Be the One exemplified by what you do while here.
Wii owe it to our Source of Light, our God of many names, to use this time of transformation to set our Spirits free. Unite in our Prosperity simplicity can bring. Ground with our Earth in a rebirth that United Wii can sing.
Grow a garden, grow your food, imagination based on Truth. Grow your children strong and smart, lifeskills leaning to the arts. Grow your mind, self-education to become a global nation of peaceful people freedom bound, with Truth and Honor… Finally found!
Sometimes it is hard to see through the fog, through the illusions that keep us underground.We must keep our vessel in shape, clay, water, and 99% microbes, inside the gelatinous shell we call our body. Is that who you are or the vehicle you drive for a lifetime on Earth.Who would have thought it would be so fun to get to my 60’s. Join me?Pausing to consider, to breath, to savour the moments…
Salvage Mind, Body, and Home in ways few can imagine but You! Do it, not just talk about wanting to. Be what you dream of in the morning.
If you had all the parts and Pieces to create a fantasy town, the windows the doors to opportunity in a warehouse where you could go? What if the land was there to play, to create the solutions you dream of one day? What day are you looking for that will Awaken the acts that make such a future come true? What are you thinking as time passes by, and the future you think of is not gonna fly as the landscape is changing, your life thus renewed, a chance to become what you will be if True.
DCIM\100MEDIA\DJI_0011.JPG
Tell me the problem you think is to big and I offer solutions that you to can live. Nothing but action will thus make it so, but if you believe you can do more than grow… bloom and become the Light, then let go. Fly like a lightning bug shining at night. While looking like nothing by day you’re so bright if you just learn to shine with the Light in your sight.
Awake to the sunlight with new dreams to fill. Build your small castle to learn how and then, build them for others and create a new life from the dreams you did not know could come from your Light. Believe in your purpose to share and to grow, not the past that you learned from to be strong here Now! Be thankful for challenges that we have seen, but do not take it with you where you can now see… a future of wonder that will let you Thrive. Believe in the future that you can create and don’t blame the world until you Awake and know that your power is that you decide what each day is part of your life and your Pride.
Remove the old garbage so you can then leap cross the chasm between you last past and what’s You! Leap over all that you once held so dear and you will reach a new level that lets you see clear. Above and beyond, I so hope you will see, enlightenment simply means seeing what’s True. Viewing the world so you can then see the doors that will open with Your Opportunity.
Sometimes its the chicks you keep for company that determines what you will hear back in convesations about the Cosmos and directions we will take next.
Finally we are officaill on Salvage Way… 111 to be exact or 333 will get your letters here to me… once the Post office figures it out. hehe.
Sometimes hitting a wall can be a constructive exercise to build your strength and endurance up, but also for productive reasons, as in creating a new life or place to live where no one before you thought to go.
Imagination sometimes just means carving your your space in a reality that seems concrete but truly is not!
Anyone want to buy a couple of nice sets of racks on a body built quite strong?
The chance is free, the loss is passing it up because you were not ready, could not decide, and missed the synchronicity of life that offers you all you need, if you will just heed the omens, pay attention, and be willing to change. Grow to be all you can be, Free, and capable of doing miracles if you will do the work it takes to get what you can… if you do the work.
I have eaten out of dumpsters to survive at 25.
I have feasted at the 5 star restaurants and known the finest foods.
I have struggled with great pain and been so crippled, bound to bed.
I have climbed back with a body that I never dreamt I’d have.
I have seen the miracles I need to believe in more than most.
I have lived a life with lessons that few wish they had lived instead.
I have walked away from millions and careers most seek to have.
I have been a father, lost a son, and thus been forced to start again.
I have mastered all the work I sought, left it all to see it rot.
I have lived and thus I thought,
In every moment I have caught new lessons to be learned,
The Reality of size is not based on its true size but how the eyes interpret the lines, colors, and shapes in a scene, real or painted, video or picture, each offering different perspectives. In real life, the mind can also be tricked into thinking spaces are bigger or smaller than they really are through the use of techniques that take advantage of what the brain expects normally before analyzing what is really before you to decipher the reality of the moment instead of the past memories you are building upon as you gaze on new scenes.
Paisley or light colored, the difference is interesting in the study of Space Magic Design. One can feel smaller or bigger, feel softer to look at or more balanced and thus fit in differently.
Just a view or two of how the Kidd and Blue Moon look after a cleaning in preparation for new guests escaping the reality of the city to hear the birds, frogs, and other critters of the country… yes others too. Don’t expect to not see bees, bugs, birds, spiders, ants, scorpions, turtles, fish, chickens, ducks, Loons, Cardinals, and so much more, hopefully no fear in case one gets in here… you will be fine.
Live a life of adventure… not fear. Darby in Salvage, Texas
I love the intent of the Core Principles of giant corporations, especially with advertising and slogans, core missions and such. It is what is said, how, and what is not said in that same pitch that can get you in trouble. I suspect they are the well thought out and crafted words of the lawyers and others for the safety of the employer… liability.
From an outside view of the world I create with my life hours, some of the principles and perspectives may seem odd or different.
Hopefully, on an even deeper level, You as you have treasure in children to care for and grow, as people with a future society to form better than the last few generations have done… your job is huge as you attempt to downsize your living quarters in order to escape the debt trap and savour your life with family, friends, and your passions. To teach your children at home perhaps instead of letting their brains be trashed at public schools, for the most part, you are the pioneers of the future who chose to break out of the box of the Great American Dream and slip into the foggy wilderness of self-sustainable lifestyles. We can live a life in Earth consciousness, and with a Spiritual Awakening that you prefer over consumerism, TV, and the Movie theatre to call your life.
It turns out there are many variables to what makes a great place to live, the people you share it with being one of the most important I have found. I plan to pick carefully, if ever more should choose to call Salvage, Texas home, and the limitations have turned out to be many, but foremost the honesty and honour that must be had by all involved before any Love, God, or Community can have any chance of a faithful following that will grow into a positive outcome for all the effort we put into manifesting our dreams as the journey of our lifetime. Who wants a job when we can live our passions instead?
Many people who are considering going to tiny digs for a home are looking for where to go that they will allow you to live in such a home. Few such towns have evolved over the boom of this new industry as the codes, deed restrictions, or the local resistance has made this style of homesteading hard to find a home for. Amongst the startups to solve that: there is a town and I will note it as the question that inspired this essay came from one considering moving there. You can choose as you will, investigate and report back your opinion, but a Google street view will sober you up before the trip to paradise is unleashed on you in real-time. Guess why they were desperate for anyone who would move there and live, pay taxes, and contribute to saving it from blowing away in a storm once fully abandoned? There are some success stories, but the charm is limited.
I am not a big fan of Spur, Tx., which requires the integration of the very old locals and not interested in change crowd no-rules anarchists, the old school genetically connected hold power, own the critical infrastructures, businesses, and given the limited resources available for the locals, thus control development while the appearance of forwarding movement develops. The Lubbock area is appealing for the gas and oil, but little more for me and I started Salvage, Texas where I have for that reason. One needs sources of water, soil, and in my mind, less wind than they will get there, and the society pre-existent will be slow to change I suspect. I spent 12 years in Gonzales, Texas with that same approach to upgrading a community but the forces in place to maintain economic oppression continue as the school system is Common Core for brains no more based as are other Corporate rich prison counties in Texas.
Beginning without Corporate code to build by, the Home Depot approved methods of building with formaldehyde, EDCs, and other products that cost the owners and children their health will not reflect for a few years. Pity, it lasts lifelong but in this day and age of advertising and sales without fact or conscience, it becomes the Buyer who must beware rather than depend on a reasonable effort by the producer to make your home safe from invisible toxins and a short built-in-obsolescence.
I am not building houses to ship around Texas anymore, in fact not really out to build them to ship anywhere but here in Salvage, Texas. My goals achieved for proving we could build without imports or toxins, I have moved on to creating the examples of permaculture, societally driven homeschooling that takes kids to new levels of empowerment thus upwards instead of breaking their thinking capacity, questioning and thriving on learning in trade for conformity… I am not a fan of limitation education. Docile prisoners is not a goal of mine but our Texas School systems seem to be in lockstep with the corporate prisons housing 50% kids who used pot… for $50,000 a year each. We can do better.
Oh yes… had to modify to Salvage, Tx. Standards.
I love the intent of the Core Principles of a company I reviewed, and suspect they are those of the global corporate employer crafted by a giant agency to look goo. I was never a giant employer… nor will I ever be but hopefully for the ethos on an even deeper level that takes into consideration the living treasure in children we must as a society, care for and grow better than we are in America with our school systems today. I am opposed to the Common Core Curricula being pushed on schools, the corporate for-profit “Dumbing Down Kids” program offered these days around the world. Instead, I offer up a different set of core principles for business.
Core Principles
1. Safety Will Not Be Compromised thus simplicity first, reduction of the risk factors to near zero… but how far into the future do most entities go when they let the real story of the product life go. From its birth to its passage, the truth is what I want to know. Like Methanes ugly secret it the losses on the way to the final user… it will go on for the volcano does not care or have such limits or testing and in one blast… dwarf the annual output of any city on the planet. Still, I would not add to any problem but make life better if my product and my ideas are sound for the planet and mankind.
Safety is a matter of being able to anticipate the unimaginable and escape harm when it happens. Having a few Guardian Angels on hand helps most of all and mine have spent a busy life nearby. Do what you dream of and fear not of the consequence of your failure lest you plan to fail, but instead focus on what it will take to succeed at your dreams and then do it, all of it, with the passion of your Heart and your Truth to lead you Home.
2. Environmentally Compliant & Responsible Operator… not just compliant… be a leader in the idea that a house can cost less than living in it as the energy to create a Salvage built home can be as little as 20 gallons of diesel fuel, imagination and ingenuity… (energy from Spirit), human action for energy to assemble, and if designed right, very little energy to heat or cool for the life of the house, longer than your own if done right. Why do people prefer the alternative Walmart mentality for housing? The use of substandard health factor materials in building today Baffles me… sheetrock, vinyl, plastic, particleboard, latex paints, EMF fields blasting from every wall at the level of your head at the wall when asleep, your gut when sitting… when it does not even have to be there if you build knowing it is a hazard to your health.
Imagine the ranches growing cows, taking this much water to feed each one each year until at 6 times this they would be slaughtered for a meal. Imagine instead all the berries and grapes, the fish and the fowl, the creatures that live of the water all gone… for one cow… to piss it out and you to eat him one day.
3. Ethics and Integrity Why do people ignore the new science that says a cell phone, a router, a wireless house phone, and the electric in appliances, LED lighting, and more can affect health. As you downsize, this is even more significant yet no one talks seriously about these things in the industry that builds them for a profit. Why would they admit to knowing what they are doing to the buyers of their products? I respectfully ask the manufacturers to consider the health of the children and elderly who do not understand the differences in their constitution and why they are more susceptible to these agents than 20-40-year-olds… though the effects on both are indubitable.
If only we could put Global Corporate Leaders behind bars for the many things they do in the name of profits for the shareholders that cost the public life, health, and limbs… but that would be a dream… ???
4. Commitment to Employees and Resources Supporting the tax system by making people employees instead of teaching them to form tiny businesses taking down trash/salvage for example, to create millions of jobs, houses, and careers is one way to look at that. They could write off the tools, trucks, education, and much more to pay instead for the kids to have all that and learn how to build homes from salvage, thus always have an occupation and home. People will always need new housing after catastrophic events, floods, storms, etc… and knowing how to build with salvage makes one the best builder on the scene when needed most.
Creating a million new Tiny Home Creators who love to work with Salvage Mining, Salvage Building, and thus create empowering business models that inspire industry, living style changes, and the healthier America we all want to see, less dependent on imports and more Utility of our treasures at our fingertips, instead of in Japan.
5. Customer Service & Fiscal Responsibility What would happen if all this occurred at local levels? The Pure Salvage Outposts set up with the tools, elders to teach, the space to build, the warehouses in the old now-vacant buildings that is pulled from the old houses and structures that need to be taken down. Indeed, the solutions for small downs are there, the need for a great transition from devastation to thriving locally, not dependent on big corporation is vital. The more skills that are added for the people who live there, the re-utilization of resources that do not have to be imported thus local dollar leaving. Education of locals to salvage mine and build is vital to creating jobs for the many in houses showing economic disparity that must have jobs to cure, but more than jobs, vested players in the revitalization of the community. If you focus on the manifestation of new communities created from the treasures of the old that could not survive then you can turn around rural areas by creating local jobs, networks, ways to downsize for the elders, stay in the town as the kids build a new less utility and import-dependent businesses, permaculture to support local food needs instead of depending on transport from far away places. Teaching and empowering customers to become stronger better people is the best we can hope to do in life as a business.
Global Corporations may not have the same goals in mind!
6. Quality Focus: 4 decades of Research and models, examples of what does and does not work. The transition from building to modern code for America has led to corporations selling their products through force rather than product efficiency, lifespan, or environmental merits from birth to death, disposal, and the health of those exposed from its manufacturing to its demise. These are quality issues that get ignored as they are out of the view of the study the producers and government wish to have examined thus the conclusions that your health is violated by the toxins you breath remains obscured, though available. The RV classification of houses on wheels by the Feds is to limit them to 48 hours of living in them for your health… yes. More is bad for most people, especially once they contaminate them with the mold and cleaners, cats, etc. that eventually become part of the mix inside the Tiny Boxes on Wheels. Finally, the issue of air quality must be considered and given few understand you breath 500 gallons of air per hour each, just sitting calmly talking, more if excited, and the limits of a tiny house that is airtight and heated for the winter is called Hypoxia… the lack of air, in this case caused by being in such a box. You will need 4,000 gallons of fresh air per calm person per night with only about 6,500 gallons available in a tiny house on wheels that is 8x12x20 inside with stuff taking up airspace. Make love at 2,000 gallons in an hour (Nice memory) and you will exhaust the air supply faster, add a second person, two of you (even better, hehe), but you will use up so much air in an hour that your morning will be a groggy one rather than an energetic celebration unless you open the door and windows to get some fresh air. Oh yes, 2 yr old jr. sleeping downstairs, well, yucky heavy air hangs near the floor where the kids and pets get cancer faster than adults. Wonder Why?
Nuff said… the article of the day inspired by a single letter referring to a town that has a great advertising video or two but a poor track record for integrating happy families into the new world of tiny houses. I can not say I would build one to send there, that they would even allow it to happen, as they got code, and an inspector to enforce it. So it goes.
I do hope that you will get a chance to visit, to consider buying the materials it would take to build your tiny home where every you may choose to settle. I would even love to sponsor the right people to open Pure Salvage Outposts with inventory to build houses closer to where they need to be put… but only to honest impassioned people. Such are few and hard to find, but if they show, I will know and help them on their way to becoming as rich in salvage, friends who want to know and grow with this industry rather than perpetuate the consumerism of imports alone.
Thank you for taking the time to consider these many facets of thinking of living tiny in a day of focusing on the important part, the journey and the people we share it with, the quality of the life, not the goal… for it is what we need for the future to grow bright again.
Add to this the avoidance of paid advertising so that industry develops on its merits, not its legal lies, few would use this for a business model.
