A Peaceful Solution Emmanuel

Emmanuel, also known on YouTube as ParadiseEarth1, gives us a simple and direct video of “A Peaceful Solution” using a simple acoustic guitar accompaniment. His revised lyrics move the later part of the song into the past tense.
He imagines a time when we will look back and remember a peaceful bloodless revolution that saved America. Emmanuel sings that “We’ve saved America” and the starting point was “an aspiration from our hearts.”
In his statement Emmanuel mentions meeting other people who share his realization that our current system demands conflict which produces needless death, pain and suffering.
Only by reaching out and seeking like minded individuals will we be able to effect meaning change. Finding this community equates to finding our strength. We need only to recognize that most of the people on this planet would rather live in peace.
The few who would rather use bullying tactics than pull their own weight are merely freeloaders. However, these freeloaders are also the most violent and deadly remorseless beings in existence.
We have all met with bullies in our lives. All it takes is for a group of people to stand up against them together. This display of unity alone dissuades bullies from pursuing their predatory behavior.
Further, as production and transportation costs increase during global climate changes, we must band together for mutual benefit. In this situation freeloading behavior cannot be tolerated. Bullies will be quickly shunned and ostracized from groups of people who all individually contribute to the general well being of the group.
These groups will find it convenient and practical to network with similar groups and from these alliances a new system will be created. I say this not as wishful thinking but to recognize and acknowledge the necessary requirements of future human organization.
Those who think that things can continue as they always have will discover these assumptions unsupported by reality. Things physically cannot continue as they always have.
The human race can no longer afford the wastefulness of extractive exploitation of resources and the destruction of lifestyles in harmony with the environment. The time when the peaceful resolution manifests is at hand.
The peaceful revolution has begun and you can be part of it. Be part of the peaceful revolution and live to see a future worth living.
A Peaceful Solution — By: Willie & Amy Nelson. Revised Contribution By
ParadiseEarth1.
There is a peaceful solution.
Called a peace revolution.
Take back America.
It’s a war and we’re in it,
And I know we can win it.
Take back America.
It is a dream an aspiration from our hearts
Wake up believing a time and place to start
So get ready to receive it,
Walk the dream never quit it
Take back America
Senseless war is now over
Lessons learned for the better
Took back America
It is a dream an aspiration from our hearts
Wake up believing a time and place to start
There was a peaceful solution
A bloodless revolution
That saved America
We’ve saved America

This is privilege to be able to contribute to this worthwhile project, an essential step to providing future generation with a harmonious environment as humanity head towards fulfilling our destiny – thank you for the opportunity.
My hope is rising each time I meet people who by now have realized that the way the current system have evolved will always end up with certain degree of conflict, and the best way to avoid the next major war that could be terminal fought with 21st armaments rely on our capacity as thinking species to finally view ourselves as one unit sharing a small fragile planet with limited natural resources.
This capacity of realizing peaceful and loving consciousness will ultimately be the Peaceful Solution that will bring everlasting peace and harmony to all.

Thank you fratello Pepi and Sis Patty :^)
It’s a privilege to be able to contribute whatever “sensibility” I’ve realized to Mr. Willie Nelson’s worthwhile Peace Initiative. We hope that in the near future the vast majority of humanity will converge with compatible aspirations for a better world and start demanding from their leadership be it religious or secular to start thinking of new paradigms that will unite humanity and usher a brand new age – a new age where Peace and Love is lived by people in harmonious co-existence everywhere.
Otherwise human race tradition of warfare will continue until the end – we need to take humanity’s direction back towards our long-term destiny…
