		<description>I don't believe I am God, for what it's worth. I think it's an important distinction, although I'm having trouble phrasing why at this exact moment. I am only responsible for what has happened to me up to a point. After that, I believe it is Grace, and my response to Grace is Thanksgiving.</description>

		<description>Basically, I realized that inwardly, in my spirit, in my divine spark, I am God and that I have the ability to manifest this godhood outwardly.  Its a decision. Doing it requires a decision and decisive action.

Risking somthing is a component of making this decision. You have to value this decision more than life itself.  Fear is the biggest component of the black iron prison, I would suspect. 

I think overcoming the black iron prison takes persistence too. You have to bring the world you live in under your will. Bend it to your will. Every day.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Then I realized the bars of the black iron prison are illusory and its imprisonment is by consent. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

How did you realize that? What is it allowing you to do differently?</description>

		<description>Well, a better disparaging metaphor would be that "my head is in the clouds" definately not the sand because I have good posture and eye contact and I am outgoing and embracing of life. 

But I see clearly though and not cloudy, so I guess that wouldn't fit either. I guess I realized how powerful i am in my ability to manifest my desires. Then I realized the bars of the black iron prison are illusory and its imprisonment is by consent.</description>

		<description>That's what I'm talking about Ted. 

How do you respond to people saying that's just you putting your head in the sand?</description>

		<description>who says that we don`t?

we have units on our streets who`s sole purpose is to deprive us of our money.........as marc stevens says, robbery via the barrel of a gun.

self-pity? yeah, somewhat.............but i don`t feel pity at being alive 24/7, merely astonished that others aren`t, and wonder why such a state exists.

and knowing that there are deathvans roving the streets of a nation half a world away is no consolation.</description>

		<description>2012 has been officially deprecated in favor of the &lt;em&gt;Super Century&lt;/em&gt;, the best on yet!

You need to stop wallowing in self-pity, Alistair. How bad can things be if you don't have mobile execution units roving your streets?</description>

		<description>julia.....thanks.

and to tim and the rest, thank you also for your tolerance of the enigmatic ramblings of a confused soul.

it is truly odd to be alive in a land of........i don`t know what.

i just find myself alive each and every day since i was a child.

the black iron prison is one way to describe it.......though jay weidner recently gave and interview whereby he felt that the 2012 thingy marks a shift in human consciousness, whereby people wake up.

george romero`s dawn of the dead movies take on an interesting perspective if you see the zombies as commuters/consumers/voters..........</description>

		<description>without a doubt i live in the black iron prison, with all the slumbering souls as jailers.

i am learning to tip-toe about so as not to wake those who while away thier sentence in sleep.

it is my experience that they come up swinging when aroused.

occasionally i am greeted with a smile of familiarity and fellowship and for that i am grateful.</description>

		<description>First Black Iron Prison result on Baidu:


http://www.iselong.com/lyrics/t/today-is-the-day/black-iron-prison.html

&lt;blockquote&gt;Album:Today Is The Day
Title:Black Iron Prison

Like a dream...
She comes...
Hard...
I can't see...
I think I'm blind...
No sensation...
Life is no fun...&lt;i&gt;[x4]
This is my test...
I tried not to hurt you,
To make it be alright,
My words can't cut through,
I think I need a knife.
I tried not to hurt you,
I HATE TO BE ALIVE!
I am the serpent...
Serenity...&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>
