Laying The HOD Foundation The Dream

OK, so the dream is a clan foundation. Why you ask? Why not, is the returned supposition. Let me ask this instead. Why should a powerful family not know each other and want to build the internal clan kingdom? Why should we not have our own expertise providing for our own family? We have tons of doctors and lawyers and finance people out there. Does anyone even know the close count of how many computer, electronics, and technical eggheads we have in this clan?
Imagine this:
- All school through the initial 4 years of college with performance scholarships available through the clan foundation - all taken care of and with private schools at that.
- All, medical, dental, optical, prosthetics, and every other kind of health issue even through special blood tested nutrition plans taken care of through the foundation.
- Business startup loans with no interest for inner clan and reasonable interest rates for outer clans, taken care of by the Denning Clan through the foundation.
- All retirements taken care of, with absolutely no dependence on the nuts in congress and the Social Security plan that is now nowhere near secure.
- That alone is worth talking about a foundation plan.
That is why the genealogy part of this site or James’ site will be so important. Through this type of avenue there can be verification of who is supposed to be on board and who is not. Every person who bears the name Denning also wants in some way to find out who their father lineage was and from what land they came. Even if they say they are not interested, I imagine the thought has still crossed their mind a time or two. Even larger than that, does anyone of us even know who the reigning patriarch of our particular branch of the family is? I think I know, but I still need to verify.
Am I talking about a small kingdom here? Well, in a manner of speaking, yes. Why should you or I care? Because, quite frankly I have always been about taking care of family whether they lived in my dwelling or not. Every time I turn around there is someone to help. I have imagined taking those helping energies and redirecting them into my source. And I know that there are others out there with more empathy than I have (and I mean that, because that is not my strong point) who also feel the same way about helping. Family should take care of it’s own. In my own youth, the priority lesson was G-d, country, family, self, and in that order. In other words, without The Source, you have nothing; without the country, you have no place to live and provide; without the family, you have nothing to sustain you; without yourself, you are dead. It makes sense to me.
The waiting game now is to figure out how to create a foundation legally in the manner which it will serve as a Denning Kingdom source for all the clan and to also see how many of the clan are even interested. I have to tell you, we are the most disconnected family I have ever seen. It really is a sad thing to think about. And, I don’t know about foundations, I never was involved with one. There has to be a way to build it, make it sustain itself, and then provide for all us Dennings together.
Yea, I know, that is a lot of people and how will it provide for all that? I don’t know the answer myself immediately, but I also know that we have smarter people than I in this family that can help me put it on paper and see what will work and what will not. And also, what I do know is that it would be a great thing for this generation to have as its progeny the knowledge that all health, education, and even some lifetime building blocks were taken care of as well as the end of our own lives and that we were the start of it all. Why should we have to depend on everyone else when we have so much right in our own homes?
So, that is basically the dream. It started as my dream, and my wish is that it also becomes your dream. Dreams never die, even though they are sometimes forgotten. Whether or not we have children involved, we all have family kids all over the place. Everyone that works will at some time cease to work. We all have health issues at times. If the priority tree is really right, then right after serving in the military for those who can, we should take care of family next. That, to me, is all of us - not just myself and wife. I need help to build a foundation. I need bigger people than myself to help make the paper map and discuss legal issues. I need other dreamers who are not afraid to step out on the ledge and eat air.
