SAVE ZE FRENCH
Welcome, we are so pleased to share in your interest of French culture. The idea started at the beginning of the year when the turmoil in France was escalating. It was one word that struck a match to the fury within — degrading all of France to the word “Frenchie!” It may seem simple to a person at first glance. Those unaware of the long-standing historical significance the various branches of our family have with the land of France.
Here is how SAVE ZE FRENCH came to be our priority charity. While working on a project I was interrupted by my friend’s warning. “Don’t look at the news about France?” I was puzzled. Why? I asked barely paying attention. “It will tick you off! Just don’t do it!” It was a frustrating day with tech issues I took a break being curious. The news was already convoluted so I thought it was probably stupid hype.
My coffee break came so yes, I perused the news. I read what was being said, blinked hard, and read it again!
I experienced an out-of-body audit. In a space of a few minutes, I went from worrying about my day to a time machine of ancestral fury! “FRENCHIE”, I didn’t even realize I shouted. “I told you not to look there’s nothing but stupid people talking.”— Came the reply from the other room. The door started to open. I growled, “Not NOW!” After fussing at the screen for twenty minutes I tried to get my brain around the idiots. It was a cruel insult upon a land of great meaning and heritage, very near to my heart!
An hour or so later when I got home, I sat down on the bed. Taking deep breaths feeling a sense of duty surge inside. My family holds a rich history in the land of France as many records, artifacts, and diaries have proven. My childhood was fueled by stories of our ancestry in its many regions.
France is so much more than just class. It is culture, architecture, a living, breathing spirit of elegance in music, language, art, folklore and so much more. A vessel of deed, withholding in its soils immense wisdom from having born noble witness to Eons great trouble and sorrow.
All of it shared to a high extent in the blood running through my veins. For anyone to besmirch the noble name of France for all the accounts she holds, it was my last straw.
Developing The Vision
Later that day I finally calmed down with an exquisite cup of rose tea. Served in a classic French teacup as a show of defiance against the ”Frenchie” franchise. I sat at the table with a pen in hand. Setting my notebook down. I began drawing different intricate designs. Letting the motion of the pen with the elegant swirls it created ease me back to calm. It did help but I just couldn’t get over the unbelievable disrespect towards my ancestral homeland.
I was getting up to refill my cup when I had an epiphany! What if I could create a designated charity? Purposed for saving the name of France from this propaganda that seeks to challenge her true values? Voilà SaveZeFrench was born! Putting the cup down on the counter resolutely exclaiming ”Yes that’s perfect!” I could see it coming together I loved it.
At a dinner meeting, I regaled my team with my plan. We were all equally enthusiastic we knew it would be a significant amount of work. There were many factors that needed to be considered. Like time, money, legalities, and integration but we were inspired. We brainstormed past, present, and future views. We researched and realized we needed a focus point. A destination goal for our charity but what was it?
The purpose was set I just needed this one missing piece. A member of my team spoke up and said. ”Wait a minute, it sounds to me SaveZeFrench can also serve as a gathering hub for those of authentic French origin as well as those who share our deep passion for the country. ”Hold that thought!” I said. ”A gathering hub? What if we create this charity to fund a place that encompasses all the many aspects of France from history to architecture to fashion… etcetera. Make a physical gathering spot for all things authentically French!” ”That’s brilliant we were on our way!” We had our focus point now we needed a starting point.
Enter the third idea. Our family has a longstanding, hereditary role in the industry of ward-making and word weaving. This craft is older than lace in fact our wards were the first woven lace ever created! Word weaving is the art of weaving intention with prayer or blessing to create a talisman. That grants protection, gratitude, and good comings to its user. It can also aid in healing for the mind, body, soul, and spirit.
Ward-making is the craft of creating an intricate design that when traced with the mind’s eye can aid in reset recovery to ease mental anxiety. Back then these wards were woven, carved, sculpted, painted, drawn, and even etched in metal armor. We were the first to coin the term Wardologist TM.
Today we live in a computer age. I love to use digital software in creating any kind of 2D artwork. I thought what if we use it to create digital Prayers, Blessings, and Wards and sell them as a digital download with our own store just to get this moving?
At the same time, I wanted to start developing that atmosphere of coming together with like-minded people. All the aspects that make up the cohesive culture and economy of France. Where we raise awareness of what an important role France plays. In this world’s culture, heritage, development and so much more! In our terms as self-appointed ambassadors.
My Words To France
I wanted to showcase all the many ways in which France drives the development and well-being of our global economy from ancient to present-day times. For instance, megalithic monuments are highly prized by us to uproot them is slaying the earth herself. When I found out the establishment dug up megalithic monuments in France I shrieked with outrage. Days of ranting ensued. As we have stories about that place.
Megalithic monuments do not belong to the present generation they are symbols of the earth’s immortal memory. The disrespect speared my soul I wanted to reach across the sea and throttle the offenders.
We chose SaveZeFrench instead to bridge the gap with the virtual reality generation Z apathy. Such as disinterest in farming, history, architecture, craftsmanship, and the lost arts. There are so many useful trade skills in fashion, music, invention, and literature-the list goes on and on where France excelled.
That is where this blog comes into play. To showcase these facts, highlight some of my own experiences, share insight, and create a stable foundation to enjoy French culture. Our goal is to develop collaborative measures to aid in our mission. To Save Ze French from the ”Frenchie” franchisers who seek to profit from the extinction of True France.
