Being a small time prepper and survivalist I often keep up with some such material like podcasts and articles. I noticed that many newcomers to the prepper/survivalist groups get really excited about the idea of being prepared to survive. They tend to suddenly wonder about different disasters and possibly threatening life situations. They start to fathom the actual depth and extent that one would need to work and think in order to be 'truly' prepared. They also have a lot of questions. This curiosity normally has them asking very specific and detailed questions. More often than not other people, who are more experienced, respond that 'it depends on the situation.'
 The more versed survivalist then give several examples of how vastly different their choices would be if a few other factors were present. Soon the newcomers realize that there is a lot more thinking that goes into prepping.

"Your mind is your most powerful tool and sound thought is an essential skill."


Ultimately, as in the case is everyone's life, the individual must 'make a call' based on their, often unique, scenario. Nevertheless plenty of people still hash it out on the net planning and sharing ideas on a multiplicity of situations and there is a lot to be said for it. This kind of discussion can only help you form your own plan.  

I began thinking along these lines and reached the same conclusion all the other new people do...
That I have a lot of thinking to do.

This blog is a glimpse into the challenges and opportunities that I see as a prepper and survivalist where I live in Israel.      

Hopefully others will get ideas of their own .......or at least some entertainment value from what i write here.
