I am Alan Booth, an ordinary British Man . I'm not one of the famous people that have the same name as me, just an ordinary guy. Welcome to my main blog, a true reliable record of history from the perspective of an ordinary man, a place filled with my thoughts; perhaps my thoughts will persist longer on here than in my brain itself. My twitter I.D. is @alspresso.

Aluminum and Slavery
There is a pattern emerging in my awareness. It could be a coincidence but I don't think so, this is what I think...
In the 1820s, the Atlantic Slave trade was abolished, about 200 years ago. In the same decade scientists found a way to free Aluminium from Alum stone. And Aluminium was sampled for the first time in human history. It was as if enlightenment was changing people's outlook on life. When communities looked at the world differently they let go of hate and racism more. It was in the same decade that the industrial revolution started.
I am experiencing a similar effect. When news articles report hate I reject it and look at all people on Earth as my brothers and sisters. I have no hate for them. The question is, will Alan be freed from his Alum and shine his chrome thoughts with pride to the world? Will the slavery of working all day to pay bills be replaced with freedom to work how I want? I reach out my hand and have hope. I can feel positive change heading my way.
The want prosperity and I have no hate in me. When I was younger I had hate because I reacted to negative media. Now I don't. I just reach out for progress and prosperity. I deserve it and I want it.
I am thankful in advance for increased prosperity and I will have it now. That is not wishful thinking. It is a breakthrough that I must have, and I feel it. The vision is there.
