THrough growing a beet in a pot,
we can turn around and right side up,
our beat with nature.
This is the message for the Campaign
to Educate Washington.
Through regaining our beat with nature,
we can redeem our future as a nation
and return to "America the Beautiful!"
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till selfish gain no longer stain
The banner of the free!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!

20 years; and me, Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener.
John invited me to visit him and stay at his apartment
for a week during his last year as a State Senator.
I learned a lot that will help me succeed in the upcoming
Campaign to Educate Washington on Real Food Safety.
I am the man for the job.

Pardon my Typos, etc.
I celebrate my Birthday Month
November 6-December 6 to give myself
time to share all the love I would like
with all the great people in my life.
It is simply impossible to tell each and every one of
you how much you matter to me,
how you took one life--this one--
a body of stuck bones and an arthritic thoughts
at times and believed in what I was doing enough--
to inspire me to want to give you what I
was born to do. I, like many of you,
are part of an Endangered Species.
All I can say it, Shift has happened,
and I am not going to allow you go
go down on my shift. I know in my
heart that you are a star in Keep the Beet Media Star's
Rock Your Soul Opera. We are all here
now to seed 1000 years of peace
through fulling expressing our deepest dreams.
I WAS BORN FOR THIS
WE WERE BORN TO SEE THIS
I know why I was born.
I was born to be Your Enchanted Gardener.
I was born to look at the Deep Seed Dreams
over your head and show you how to root them
in fertile soil.
That is what "Plant Your Dream" is all about,
my forthcoming best seller book series.
I am just now coming down from the
peek experience I just did,
The Pacific Symposium 2010
Enchanted Garden Installation.
I wrote one blog that had a picture
saying, Were you born to see this?????
My friend, Amy Lint, the director of the
New Roots IRC Farm in San Diego,
The farm where our First Lady launched
her "Let's Move!" mandate, gave birth
to a little Holy Child on November 5!
That was the day before the Launching
of the Campaign to Educate Washington.
We did a Sacred Sound Shall Go Out event.
I visited the little baby on November 15.
That was the expected day of birth.
The baby decided to be born ten days early!!!
Can you believe it????
I layed the Holy Baby on my chest the
other day, a sweet little boy.
I feel so blessed.
WE CAN DO IT
IF WE INTEND IT AND PLANT IT
I have a couple odd ball friends named
Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen.
I knew them both before most of you heard
their names and they wrote the first
"Chicken Soup for the Soul" book that
now aims to sell more than a billion before long.
I was the photographer for Mark a couple times
in this life. One was at the coming out party
when Chicken Soup became a best seller.
I planted that dream for the book to sell millions.
I was also at his house when his kids were little.
Each year, he would redo his vows to his lovely
Ex, who is I imagine is still a very active partner
in the Chicken Soup for the Soul Enterprises.
I go back with Jack. I remember Jack when he would
play the guitar at the San Diego Holistic Health and
Education Conferences. I have one picture where
he looks like a blind man. I Joke that his life is the story
of a blind dreamer who made good.
THE POINT IS
The point is, you too have dreams.
It is our destiny to root them with beet seeds
and beet roots.
Georgia Noble, the mother of Jack's first kids,
was also a friend of mine. We had one of those
mutual admiration societies. Jack was also
a key player with another mutual friend,
a Don Quixote type, named John Vasconcellos,
who actually believed
that Government was about Statemanship.
John Vasconcellos was loved in Sacramento by both
the Repubs and Demos in a time in CA history
when he did not term out our best Public Servants.
We let them give, and give, and give, and only
tossed them out if they were bad news.
John went on to form the Politics of Trust.
One time, while he was still in office in Sacramento,
I asked him if I could watch. I stayed in his apartment
for a week. That was a serious mistake for the future
of Washington, and the successful Campaign
to Educate Washington on Real Food Safety.
John was not your average politician.
He entered personal growth and humanistic psychology--
at the same time he entered politics.
He, with the help of Jack Canfield and people
like Carl Rogers and Virginia Satir--made
Self Esteem a household word.
John also sponsored projects that showed
me that if you gave a kid enough brain allergins--
i.e, such as BPA in the lining of cans--
you can irritate the brain enough to cause
criminal behavior.
GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS
IN WASHINGTON
Some of the people in Washington today are bringers
of bad news.
Others, and I intend to seek them out, are bringings
of the Good News. Bottomline, I know our senators are
good people, with heart and soul, and common
desires to care for our nation and return our
nation to a new Golden Era.
ABOUT THE FUTURE OF S-510
THE FOOD SAFETY MODERNIZATION ACT
It does not matter to me if #S -510 the Food Safety Modernization Act,
a little drama on the Hill today--makes much progress.
I cannot believe that with so many eyes now on our
transparent and see-through government--
We the People are going to allow only 100 of US--
our U.S. Senators-- to defend the future of our food supply
against the International Forces that would prefer
we all lived in a depopulated world.
15% of the world still does micro farming.
They do not need visits form the FDA.
They need water, support, micro-loans,
and our self-respect to leave them to grow
a beautiful world.
LESS NEED FOR FARMERS?
Less need for farmers?
That is the kind of world the GEO foods makes possible.
That is the kind of world that Drug approaches to medicine
makes possible. That is the kind of world
where we do not need natural medicines, or herbs,
or the knowledge of how to use natural remedies
or TCM, or Ayurvedic herbs.
I am not a Conspiracy Theories.
I am a 1000 years of Peace Designer.
WE ARE IN A ROCK YOUR SOUL OPERA
I can tell you up front,
we are in a Rock Your Soul Opera called
Beet Keepers, Return!
I can tell you that you, my friend,
are the Star in this Rock Your Opera.
As Your Enchanted Gardener, entering my 63rd
year of dreams, I say Yes
to Nature's Original Technology. I am asking you
to do the same.
I was listening just now to my president
Barack Obama giving out the naional science
and technology awards.
I hear from Keep the Beet, he will be honoring
Nature's Original Technology next year!
How else are we going to truly recovery our economy
with returning to what is real and to real food,
the cornerstone of a health reform?
Stand up with me for Nature's Original Technology.
Nature's Original Technology includes local farmers,
Micro farmers and small size organic Beet keeper
growers such as Phil Noble, Joe Rodriguez Jr., Suzie,
and micro farmers such as Barry Logan.
Nature's Original Technology includes supporters
such as Jim Bell, who know how to
make electricity out of waves;
people like Donna and Skip Fry, who love to surf,
and people like Carolyn Chase, or future mayor
of San Diego, who believes in a Bright Green Future.
NO FLAMES FOR US
We are not here to go down in flames.
We are not here to live lives fried as French Fries
down at Jack in the Box, that by the way, began in my
hometown of San Diego.
SAN DIEGO
We CAN GROW FOOD HERE 24/7
San Diego! I love it. We call it the Nation's Finest City
for a reason. The reason is, we can grow food here,
Real Food 24/7. We are a magical kind of City with
a really bad Football Stadium that has a river running
under it that keeps us from winning the Super Bowl Game,
but leave it to us, we wlll find a Feng Shui Cure for that one!!!!!
We are the city of Dreamers.
Take San Diego State University down the street
from the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community Growing Grounds,
a home I share with others.
NATURAL REMEDIES, ANYONE?
We once had a player from New Orleans here named
Marshall Faulk, the famed NFL running back.
We said the Marshall came to town when I knew
him at SDSU.
Once he had a hurt knee.
I gave him some aloe vera to rub.
IF the FDA has its way, years from now,
a person could be arrested for saying that Aloe Vera
is good for arthritis pain, even though rubbing it on
helps my headache.
That is the knowledge our current FDA would rather
you forget. Pharmaceuticals, according to our current Food CZar
are much more convenient, and profitable.
I am straying from my point...
I AM HERE FOR YOU
LET'S TAKE TIME TO CHEW ON FOOD SAFETY
A NATIONAL CONVERSATION IS NEEDED
November 19 is my birthday,
the official birthday.
What I am asking for is Time,
time for all of us to get our act together about
Real Food Safety.
I want a National Conversation.
I am asking for Washington to Chew Slowly on
before passing #S-510.
I get that there are feeling of Urgency.
Behind the scenes, I imagine, some are concerned
about coming into harmony with the Above Nations
Codex Alimentarius Commission Food Trade Laws,
but that is another story. More than a need
to harmonize with unfair Trade laws, we need
to harmonize with the beat of nature.
Here is the Rock Your Soul Opera in a Nutshell:
COMPETITION
FOR YOUR FOOD DOLLAR
There are two dynamic forces in the world right now
competing for your food dollar.
One force wants to feed you Fax Food, an imitation,
ever lasting BPA lined beans in cans that help food
give food eternal shelf life. In this FDA approved
system of medicine, IF you get sick,
don't worry, we have Drugs to take your belly ache away,
and a nice Health Reform Law that gives us cheaper
drugs.
On the other hand, we have the Real Food Foodies,
the Farmers' Market Goers, the sustainability Rooters.
It is time now for our team to get it together
together. Lettuce Keep the beet.
Let us recognize that soil is not dirty,
and that
the Earth and the Soul are Soilmates.
Yes, my Friend, we are Seeds, Sacred Sounding Seeds,
here to Sprout and become
the harvest...the Forerunners and Beet Keepers
here to see 1000 years of peace.
The Drama goes on and on...who would have ever thought
that at the End of History 2012 one world ends and another
begins.
This is your time. This is your moment.
Can you not hear the Ram's Horn blowing?
Brothers and Sisters, Unite!
Leave behind disparate feelings.
Let us bond together and make
a Holy moment. Let us extend our
good feelings and dreams outward
to encircle those in Washington who
will be coming here for dinner and to shop
at our Hillcrest Farmers' Market.
Let this not be the time of Empty Harvest.
