Happy Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day

The term "economy" has the household at its core. The word stems from the Greek "Oikonomia" which means "household management". One who does the management is the "oikonomos" or "steward". The wife and mother is the one who rules over the domestic life of the home. She is the "oikodespot" or "house master".

The term "household" refers to a place of familial dwelling that is meant to be kept, tended, custodied, watched over, fortified.

A "strong" political economy, therefore, is made up of strong, properly stewarded, fortified, and productive households filled with many members who all together contribute to the work and vitality of the home. Such households have been central to the health of every civilization.

As Rory Groves states in his book Durable Trades, "Resilient nations rely on resilient communities, which rely on resilient families. Historically it has been decentralized, interdependent families and communities working together that have best weathered the storms of adversity. It will be the same today. A durable future depends on resilient family economies, close-knit communities, and 'a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence'—it always has."

Some (mostly age-old) practical thoughts on how we establish resilient, anti-fragile, economically strong households:

Get married, have children, homeschool them, train them up in the fear and admonition of the Lord. Go to a church that teaches sound doctrine, cultivate community, show hospitality, trade, barter, build businesses, be industrious, plant gardens, establish redundancies (multiple sources of food, water, security, energy), develop a home library and be well read, be involved in the political and civic life of your local community, practice voluntary hardships, use sovereign tech, do not compromise your house with *smart* technology, stack sats.

Beautiful -- the kinds of mists in which ones can see fractal infinities; particularly if there are fungi 'about.'

That’s beautiful!
