Just like a hermit man kind is walking each their own path. Balancing experiences along the way. Trying hard to reach wherever it is they are trying to reach. Each with their own light ahead of them, crossing the pathways of the mountains of knowledge that are hidden within the depths of this world. Slowly but surely on the way to the imperfect perfection. Fighting any problem we see along the way. After years and years on the road, feet aching and tired, mind unrested and chaotic all that we seem to be good at is conflict.

 

So we jump upon our horses and gallop along with all the others. With passion for life burning in our hearts we strive to be the fittest. As if that has any meaning at all. For pride and honor we rise and face any problems that we see along the way. For the honor of our loved one’s, our families and our own honor. There is nothing wrong in defending one’s honor as long as by doing so no one is harmed. So many have misunderstood what the point is in striving for one’s honor. It is not to show who is the greatest but to defend those who don’t have the means to defend themselves. To be strong enough to stand against an enemy and not lose your soul and your light. To be fearless and brave against any changes time has in store for you. To not spread lies about your loves one’s. to never let a call for help go on deaf ears and to never use thy ability in vein or against thy kin. To live according to the code of honor.

 

Many prefer to keep their emotions hidden and rather put themselves first. They would sit in the throne chair of the grand table at dinner with the biggest glass of wine and the most expensive clothes and laugh at those who have nothing. With not a shred of shame they would enjoy all life’s pleasures and deny another even their own existence. They would harm another only for their own ego and pride. So many feelings they have hidden from the world, even they don’t recognize themselves while looking in a mirror. For greed has twisted them so much they are a stranger to themselves.

 

All for a dream of perfection. The balanced happiness in the garden of life. Under the tree full of knowledge. Not the knowledge of matter but the knowledge of the self. A secret it is my friends, a riddle for that tree is nothing more than just you. Planted inside a beautiful garden called earth, surrounded my oceans many, rising on grounds stable and green. To grow strong and healthy, to reach the sky’s.

 

What have we done to this beauty my friends. Look outside and tell me what you see. It is tragic. Soon there would be no rainforest to show our grandchildren, there would be no tigers and  no elephants. All the green will be filled with cement and rock. Nothing else than gray and lifeless urban area of men. We are destroying this priceless beauty. We are killing our own mother and with not even an eye twitch we continue as we have had. Tell me how happy would a treeless city would make you? With only blocks and cars. With no fresh air and no singing of the birds. Nothing will change unless you want it to. We have come to the end of the line and we have to stand up and be the change. It has been enough havoc and enough terror upon mothers back.

 

We have to stand up and join hands and work as the family that we are. All of us share the same love just not all of us rank it as evenly important. We are all so beautifully different, made exactly the way we have to be. to be a team, to rise and join our strengths and support our weaknesses. To defend her when she is being plundered and raped by our own selves and our own children. We have to teach those to come how one has to behave and how one can live balanced life without overdoing it. without taking more than one needs and without useless childish conflicts based on nothing else than ego. Look at all the wars we have created, we should be ashamed of ourselves. What kind of example is this showing to the future generations.

 

We take and take and take and give nothing. We have our hands full and yet we want more. That causes nothing else than problems. We have so many cars the air will be impossible to breath in the future, so many houses there would be no trees and no animals. The pollution we cause is killing nature around us. We have been very greedy, so greedy even a 10 year old can see how is should be done. We teach our children to be kind and polite, to not steal and not cheat, to share and to love… look at what we are doing. We do nothing of what we are teaching them. Yet we pretend to be the perfect role model. It makes me ashamed to be human because a 10 year old has to worry if she would still be able to see the rainforest when she grows up. That isn’t what a child should worry about but that is the kind of world we have created.

 

We should use our strengths to improve the environment we live in. get in touch with nature like the ancients lived. They didn’t need expensive technology to read the stars they could navigate only by following them. They knew what plant was for what purpose, they knew all about the power of the animals around us and about their own strengths and weaknesses. They knew how to be respectful to mother and not take more than one needs. They would hear a rock speak and a tree sing. They could understand a cat without it saying a word. We are a mere shadow of how we could have been. We are not created to use up everything, kill nature and live in gray flats. We are created to live in balance and harmony with each other on earth. to experience this paradise from a dual point of view. To help keep it as it is.

 

Just imagine what a world it would be if we all tolerated each others differences. If we didn’t judge and didn’t condemn only because we don’t know. if we were kings of our own internal strength, our chi. The life running through your veins. The eternal flame living in each and every one of us. If we know how amazing we all are as beings we would not even think of the need to be someone, we already would be that. We would just be ourselves and that would be enough.

 

Time has come that we under look our own faith. See what is really important in our lives. Try to find the way of living that is good for us yet nor harmful to another. Live up to your own expectations of another and judge yourselves not the other. Stand ahead of those lost and without direction and help them chose a path that is right for them according to their needs. Listen for a while and don’t offer advice, allow your fellow men to speak for a change. You don’t always have to be right and not always have to speak your mind. No one is that important. Know when to speak and when to be silent.

 

And most of all know yourselves and judge no one.

 

The future my friends will be exactly what you make of it. nothing more and nothing less. Those who believe to be able to tell it are fools. The only thing you are able to see is a moment version of how it might look like if things are like they are at the moment of looking. But as time goes on and we all move on with our daily lives nothing ever stays the same. Stop concentrating so much on the future and think about who you are right now. Everything you do right now makes the future. You can create it as peaceful and balanced as you want it to be and have the innocence and purity of a child, or you can make it manifestation of your own worse fears. All is inside your minds. The world is exactly like you have created it to be as it shall keep on changing as you change.

 

Raise your vibrations to raise the vibrations of all the world. Open your minds to open that of all the world and free your souls of prejudice to be a part of this unity that we all are. Be yourselves and nothing more.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.

 

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.

 

Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.

As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.

We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.

Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.

Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"

A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?

After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...

Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
