THE HORRIFIC MURDEROUS EVIL OF TRUMP HATRED
Think about it: For about five years, anything candidate, president-elect, and President Trump said or did, the media, the Left, and progressive popular culture opposed in Pavlovian fashion.
The result? In the Left’s uncontrolled aversion and detestation, they suspended all the rules of empiricism, logic, and rationality—and hundreds of thousands of Americans died as a result.
Just as pathological, they don’t care at all. They have no remorse whatever.
THE ARIRANG MASS GAMES IN NORTH KOREA
The spectacle takes place in the fall at the May Day Stadium in Pyongyang. I attended in 2010 and 2012. It has to be seen to be believed. You’re looking at 10,000 dancers, acrobats and performers on the stadium floor. The background screen of a rising sun and Korean letters is a “card stunt,” 30,000 students holding colored cards composing it.
The number “65” is for the 65th anniversary of the surrender of Imperial Japan in World War II (August 15, 1945 – I took this photo in 2010), their Liberation Day (our V-J Day). The snowy mountain depicted below the 65 is Mount Paekdu, where all North Koreans are taught their country’s founder Kim Il-sung defeated the Japanese and won the war (he was actually at a Soviet army camp near Khabarovsk, Siberia at the time).
They are never taught a word about the events a few days prior to their Liberation Day (i.e. Hiroshima and Nagasaki), nor to whom the Japanese surrendered. Hands down, NorkLand is the world’s most bizarre country. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #88 Photo ©Jack Wheeler)
THE FATHER-SON ADVENTURE
This is the start of a new TTP series on Mondays entitled The Father-Son Adventure. It will be intermittent between additional editions of our Keeping Your Sanity series. It’s frankly to enable me to finish my book with the same title, and I really hope you enjoy it.
We begin today with a short Dedication, Prefatory Note, and a setting-the-stage episode too short to be called a chapter. Next week will be Chapter I: Four Words That Changed My Life.
THE FATHER-SON ADVENTURE Jack Wheeler
DedicationTo Rebel, my wife, my life partner, my best friend, and mother of our two sons. I could only have taken our boys, starting when they were so young, on the extraordinary series of adventures we had together with her approval and encouragement. Rebel so deeply understood the life-long value of what these experiences would mean to them. It is with the deepest gratitude, appreciation, and love that this book is dedicated to her.
Prefatory Note
I am a father blessed with two sons. As a man, I can never be a mother like my wife, and we never had a girl, only our two boys. I would encourage other fathers with either boys or girls, and mothers with sons and/or daughters, to write of the adventures with their children. This is the story I have had with mine. It is written in the hope of inspiring all parents to make of their life with their children a thrilling adventure.
HORSESHOE BEND
Looking down 1,000 feet above world-famous Horseshoe Bend of the Colorado River at sunset is one of most iconic views our planet offers us. It is to be found near Page, Arizona near the border with Utah. Yet in truth, the number of different mind-blowing iconic views is uncountable in this part of the American West.
Close by are the Vermillion Cliffs, and the simply psychedelic Antelope Canyon. Just a bit further is the Grand Escalante Staircase, a little bit further Zion and Bryce Canyons and Monument Valley. And of course, right next door is something called The Grand Canyon.
There are people who have explored this region for years and will tell you there’s so much they’ve yet to see. You can explore the world over – what I’ve done my whole life – and yet there is so much of Creation to be soul-thrilled by just in this one region of northern Arizona and southern Utah – and I haven’t mentioned Moab which is a total mind-blow all by itself.
Take a break from all the worries of the world to come to here. Pick a place that will thrill your soul for a few days. That’s what’s needed now. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #134 Photo ©Jack Wheeler)
WOKE DISNEY
HALF-FULL REPORT 06/04/21
The “walls are closing in” on the criminal fraud of Fauci. With justification, yes, but in reality, he’s just the scapegoat, the red herring deflecting attention away from those who perpetrated one of the greatest crimes against humanity in all history.
The truth being that 18 months ago, the Communist government of China purposefully and with malice aforethought began waging biological germ warfare upon the entire world -- which the media and federal government has covered up.
What happens now to Emperor Xi, China Zhou, the rotten little man in the cartoon above, and all their accomplices? Read on!

November 1990. The “Tiger’s Nest” or Taktsang monastery is built in front of caves on a vertical cliff-face high above the Paro Valley in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan. Originally a meditation site of the founder of Tibetan Buddhism, Padmasambhava in the 700s, the monastery temples were first constructed in the 1600s.
Bhutan is arguably the most fabulously exotic country on earth, still adhering to the ancient traditions of Ningma (Red Hat) Tibetan culture. It is quite a steep hike to the Tiger’s Nest but certainly worth it. We’ll be conducting an in-depth exploration of Bhutan next year. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #133 Photo ©Jack Wheeler)
IT’S TIME TO CANCEL BACK
None of them are “White” – All of them are European-Americans
Twenty twenty-one is the year for canceling back.
Canceling back, as I practice the art, is not about retribution. It is about either strengthening or eliminating connections by asserting the highest truth I can perceive and requiring my viewpoints based on that truth to be respected in the relationship.
Now I am embarking on a multidimensional project to cancel back the word "white," because today it is a term of racist abuse. It dehumanizes by obviating the historic religio-cultural diversity and connections to ancestral homelands of people who are reduced to the color label "white."
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL
In these trying times, it’s important to appreciate the beauty of America – both the physical beauty like here at the McWay Waterfall in California’s Big Sur, and the moral beauty of America’s founding principles expressed in the Declaration of Independence.
Driving through all 50 US states as I have done with my sons gives you an awareness of the astounding beauty you discover, together with the cheerful friendliness you’re met with, in every state. They overwhelm whatever ugliness and unfriendliness you may chance upon.
Studying American history in an unjaundiced way gives you an awareness of how a moral foundation of every individual American’s inalienable right to their own personal life and liberty and the pursuit of their own personal happiness has enabled the creation of the most successful nation ever to exist – a success of widespread freedom and prosperity that overwhelms the multitude of imperfections afflicting our country.
Earth is not Heaven, humans are no angels, America is far from perfect – and we must never let the perfect be the enemy of the good. It is only with love and respect can we help America strive towards what Aristotle called the Kalon, the morally beautiful. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #8, photo ©Jack Wheeler)
