  • MEGA – Make Earth Great Again

    MEGA – Make Earth Great Again

    Because a truly great country wouldn’t leave the rest of the world behind.

    I’m not against making my country great again.  

    Who wouldn’t want the place they call home to thrive?

    But here’s the question:  

    Does greatness have to come at the expense of others?

    Can we redefine what greatness means — not just for one nation, but for the whole planet? INCLUDING all nations?

    Maybe it’s time for a new acronym:  

    MEGA – Make Earth Great Again.

    A world where my country still shines, but doesn’t cast a shadow over the rest.

    What is “Greatness”, Anyway?

    For far too long, “greatness” has been measured by domination.  

    The biggest GDP. The strongest military. The loudest voice at the table.

    But is that really greatness? Or is it simply hubris?

    True greatness doesn’t isolate or separate, it elevates and includes. It lifts others. It inspires collaboration, not conquest. It cultivates wisdom, not just wealth.

    What if greatness meant creating a world where all can thrive — not just a chosen few behind their own national borders?

    No Country Is Separate From the Earth

    Wanting my country to thrive is natural. But it still lives on this Earth.  

    And this Earth is shared. Interconnected. Fragile — and miraculous.

    The idea that one place can become “great” while the rest of the world suffers…  

    That’s not ambition. That’s assumption.

    Climate, health, food, peace, environment — these things don’t respect borders.  

    No matter how high the walls, how big the military or how strong the economy,  

    a burning planet burns for all.

    Making Earth great again includes making my country great — not instead of it.  

    Because my country is part of this world, not apart from it.

    A New Definition of Greatness

    So what would it mean to make Earth great again?

    It could mean a world where:

    • Clean air and water are guaranteed.
    • all the planet’s resources are declared the common heritage of all the world’s people.
    • Food is grown in harmony with nature and freely shared.
    • Education is a given, not a privilege.
    • Energy is free from fossil fuels and free for all.
    • Nature and the environment is thriving.
    • Innovation serves life, not profit.
    • Collaboration instead of domination.
    • Greatness becomes a shared project — not a contest.

    In the world I imagine in my book Waking Up — greatness looks very different from what we’ve been taught.

    It’s not about standing tallest, but about reaching widest.

    It’s not about control, but about contribution.

    MEGA as a Movement

    MEGA isn’t a critique. It’s a calling.

    It’s not anti-patriotism — it’s much deeper and wider than that. It asks us to expand our love of country into love of planet. and humanity.

    Because when the Earth thrives, so does my country. So do all countries.

    > Let’s stop trying to win the world — and start caring for it and each other.

    That might be the greatest thing we ever do.

    If this vision resonates with you, dive deeper into a future where worth is no longer defined by artificial standards, and greatness is measured by human flourishing and planetary harmony.

    My novel Waking Up explores what MEGA could actually look like — not as a slogan, but as a lived reality. 🌍

  • Can We Stop Climate Change? Or is that even the right question?

    Can We Stop Climate Change? Or is that even the right question?

    We Are almost Out of Time

    The Earth is sending signals. Not gentle ones anymore, but sirens. Fires, floods, droughts, tipping points. Climate change is not in the future — it’s now.  

    And no, we can’t stop all of it. But we can still stop the worst of it.  

    We can still choose what kind of world comes next.  

    But That window is closing fast.  

    The real question isn’t can we stop it?  

    It’s will we change — radically, collectively, now?

    What’s Already Gone — And What’s Still in Our Hands

    – The damage is real and irreversible in places — polar melt, coral collapse, mass species loss.  

    – But we are not powerless.  

    – The science is clear: the sooner we act, the more suffering we prevent.  

    – Every fraction of a degree matters. Every year matters. Every decision matters.

     What’s Missing Isn’t Tech — It’s Trust

    – We have the solutions: clean energy, rewilding, regenerative food systems, circular design.  

    – What we don’t have is a system designed for global cooperation.  

    – Today’s world runs on short-term profits, national interests, and fear.  

    – But the climate doesn’t care about borders. The atmosphere is One.  

    The real emergency is this:

    we’re still acting like separate tribes on a dying planet.

    What Could Be — The World We are Capable of Creating

    In Waking Up, my novel, I paint a vision of a different future.  

    Not fantasy — possibility.

    – A world without money, where trust has replaced trade.  

    – A planet restored — where we live in harmony with nature, not in conquest of it.  

    – Communities where people contribute their gifts freely, because economy no longer depends on scarcity.  

    – Global systems run on collaboration, gratitude, and shared purpose — a Global Resource Based Economy with a Natural Exchange System – not fear and debt.

    This isn’t utopia. It’s what could emerge when we stop asking, “What’s in it for me?”  

    And start asking, “What’s best for all of us? Including me?”

     ⚠️  We Have One Shot — And It’s Now

    – We are living through a narrowing doorway.  

    – If we don’t unite across borders, classes, and ideologies now, we will miss it.  

    – The coming years will decide whether Earth becomes a furnace of survival…  

    …or a flourishing garden of rebirth.

     💡 This Is the Awakening

    We don’t need more doom. We need direction.  

    We need a vision that’s bigger than carbon stats and political soundbites.  

    We need to remember that another world is still possible — but only if we create it together.

    That’s the message of Waking UpA journey towards a new dawn for humanity  

    Not just a novel — an inspiration. A mirror. A call.  

    Because whether we make it through this moment or not…  

    will depend on whether we wake up — together — in time.

  • Something I’ve Waited over a Decade to Share With You

    Something I’ve Waited over a Decade to Share With You

    Hey friend,

    This has been a long road.

    Over ten years ago, I started writing a story — not just for fun, but because I had to. It was a vision I couldn’t shake. A glimpse into a future that felt both impossible and completely natural. A future without money, without domination, without fear. A world built on trust, contribution, and meaning.

    I called it Waking Up.

    And now… after years of writing, rewriting, surviving a massive stroke, and rebuilding piece by piece — the book is finally real.

    I’ve just started using a new system to send updates via email (you’re getting this because you were on my previous list or recently subscribed).
    If you’d like to follow the journey toward the launch on May 2nd, you’ll be among the first to hear about:

    • Early previews and artwork
    • Where to get the book for just $0.99 during preorder.
    • Behind-the-scenes of the story and how it was born
    • …and what might come next…

    This book is more than fiction to me — it’s an invitation to remember who we are, and what we could be.

    Thank you for being here.

    With love and anticipation,
    – H

    Why I’m Dropping the Price of Waking Up to $0.99 (For Now)

    For a limited time, you can get the eBook for just $0.99 through preorder.

    Yes, that’s less than a cup of coffee.

    Why? Because this story isn’t just a book — it’s a seed. A vision. A call to remember who we really are and what kind of world we could build together. And I want that message to reach far beyond those who can easily spend $10 on a book.

    On May 3rd, the price will return to $4.99. So if you want to lock in the lower price of just $0.99, now’s the time.

    Feel free to share this article with anyone you think would appreciate this.

    No worries. You’ll only be charged the lowest price available at launch — so even if you preordered at $4.99 earlier, you’ll be charged just $0.99 on May 2nd when the book is released.

    I’m not doing this for profit. In fact, at $0.99, I earn almost nothing per copy. This campaign is about momentum — and reaching people.

    Amazon’s algorithm rewards books that get early preorders, sales spikes on launch day, and verified reviews shortly after release. So every preorder, every download, and every review helps lift Waking Up higher in the rankings — making it more visible to new readers around the world. WITH 100 PREORDERS OR MORE AMAZON WILL NOTICE THIS AND SHOW THE BOOK TO MORE READERS. LET’s GET TO 200!

    ⭐ Early readers are already responding

    Here’s what one reader said on Goodreads:

    The novel is well written and easy on the eye . The unfolding drama keeps the reader’s attention. It is not just the surface story that draws one in but, also, the deeper philosophical points that the author makes. Perhaps above all – what does it mean to be a human being? A highly recommended book!

    Robin Cox, Goodreads

    More reviews are starting to come in. If you’ve read an early copy, I’d be deeply grateful if you’d leave a short review on Goodreads right away or Amazon(after launch day) — it truly makes a difference. And if you’ve already posted a review on Goodreads, feel free to repost it on Amazon after launch day — it’s a big help in getting the message seen. Goodreads accepts reviews before launch, but Amazon only after launch.

    📘 What’s Waking Up about?

    Waking Up is the story of Benjamin Michaels, who wakes up in a future where money and trading is abandoned — and must rediscover what it means to be truly alive. It’s a blend of science fiction, spiritual insight, and grounded social commentary — but more than anything, it’s a love letter to what humanity could be.
