Are you prepared for whatever comes next?
- Tornado?
- Earthquake?
- Floods?
- Hurricane?
- Food Shortages?
- Civil Unrest?
Look around; there are disasters of all kinds happening just about every day. 2020 alone, has seen a Pandemic, Civil unrest (In the form of riots), massive unemployment, and shortages of food and goods, just to name a few. 2021 has started out with more of the same.
The time to be prepared for whatever comes next, has well passed, however you can still prepare today, for what may come tomorrow.
The days of preppers being TIN FOIL HAT WEARING FOOLS is over. Today, more than ever, is there a need to be prepared.
Being prepared is not a new concept, look at the generation that grew up during the Great Depression. To them, growing and storing food was common. Those of us that grew up with grandparents from that area should still remember them having large gardens, canning food, and stacking firewood. Some of you remember mom clipping grocery coupons from the Sunday paper, before doing the weekly shopping.
If we look back even farther the Boy Scouts of America was founded in 1910; their motto? “Be Prepared”.
I am not here to spread doom and gloom, and not all disasters are on a wide scale. Disaster can come in all shapes and sizes. What may be a disaster for one, may not be for another. All I am saying is to prepare for yourself and your family. It just may be the difference between life and death.
