Music and the wars

 Music is memory for me. I like to associate songs with certain times of my life.

It cant be forced, it just has to happen. A certain song sticks and it becomes a part
of a memory. The same can be said of Songs and War.

One song that I associate with Desert Storm is Seasons in the Sun. It is a soft ballad
from the 1970s. I dont know why but it just is a song I associate. Its a song from another
era but I made it mine. Yea, if you listen to the lyrics , it is a depressing song and sad.

Another song I associate with Desert Storm is From a Distance by Bette Midler.
I dont care about the politics of war and the views of the singer or writter per say
and none of that matters because it is my memory.

Why True Preppers Understand the Value of Gold and Silver Preparedness, at its core, is about resilience and foresight. Preppers pride themselves on being ready for any situation, whether it’s an economic collapse, natural disaster, or any scenario where self-reliance becomes essential. Yet, in this community, there seems to be a significant oversight by some who claim to be preppers but neglect one basic principle of long-term security: the inclusion of gold and silver in their emergency plans. These individuals are what I call “Preppers in Name Only”—and they risk being caught unprepared when it matters most. The Case for Gold and Silver in Preparedness Gold and silver have been used as currency for thousands of years, long before paper money became the norm. When national currencies collapse or hyperinflation renders them worthless, history shows us that precious metals emerge as a reliable and universally accepted form of trade. Not recognizing their role in true preparedness under...
