One Hundred and Three Years of Gestation

The Republic of Taiwan does not yet exist, except in the hearts and minds of its people.

Friday, millions celebrated Taiwan's National Day, popularly known as Double Ten Day, which commemorates the start of the Wuchang Uprising of October 10, 1911, which led to the collapse of the Qing Dynasty in China and establishment of the ROC on January 1, 1912. 

It is perhaps, symbolic of our times that a giant panda in the room is completely ignored diplomatically for expedience, waiting for the passage of time, and the arrival of what will be the New China Republics, multiple independent autonomous states all sharing a common heritage and lineage. 

Change ultimately comes from individuals, and the next great epoch for mankind is the coming Age of the Individual.  It is inevitable that a final battle of collectivist oligarchs and free minds of thinking individuals must occur on planet Earth.  The Information Revolution, coupled with the final consequences of the Bankster Era and attempts at renewed collectivist rule by both oligarchs and primitive, outdated illicit theologies will catalyze individuals worldwide to take new formative actions that will reshape existing nation states and malignant world-wide power structures.

The youth of today, like the youth of yesteryear, want a better life and a brighter future.  It will come, but not without determination and self-sacrifice, and a faith in God.  The train to the future is in the station and seats are being taken.  Don't be afraid to take the ride.
