Sometimes it pays not to open your legs for the first newcomer. Modesty and purity are ideals that hold a greater value both for the individual as well as on a macro scale. Rejecting alien notions, saving itself for a better match, allowed Japan to reach a stage that offered more opportunities, and less risk for opening its borders and trade to the Outside world.
People who exist purely in the now without a thought to their cultural impact, their historical footprint, and who go out of their way to destroy our legacy should be punished commensurate to their crimes.
Democracy is dying. We are killing it. When we abdicate from responsibility, we make it clear. We want none of that. Government cannot and won’t protect you. The social contract is null and void.
Gorbachev may have doomed us all. We must do whatever it takes to clean up the monumental mess this motherlover left us with.
Romania is at the crossroads. Its history beckons her to walk the path of righteousness. A Nation must stand Tall or it must Perish.
Nothing lasts forever. All life has a beginning and an end. We used to be nomads pitching our troglodyte tents everywhere we went. We invented agriculture, settled down, built cities. Waged wars that burned cities down. There are no guarantees that won’t happen again. Not with nuclear weapons. If you want to survive you need to go back to basics. Or not! Your call!
May you live in interesting time! More like may you endure or survive interesting times! Pardon me for being a naysayer, but when was life on Earth un-interesting?! It’s a freaking rollercoaster, and we all know it.
The Gun destroyed Feudalism. It led to the triumph of Democracy. Now the powers that be want to take away people’s freedom. To do that, they must remove the ways and means. An armed citizen is a freeman. Only slaves are not allowed weapons.
Political violence is a fact of life. The world is in turmoil. In 1963, a President was killed in Dallas. The Truth never came out. The Media obscured the Facts by conflating the Sensational with Reality and adding a heavy dose of Fake News. Then, as Now, we are at crossroads. Do we keep on believing the Mainstream Media’s litany of deceit and lies? Or we move away and examine facts on their merit. The choice is ours. It takes time to be informed. But a lifetime won’t be enough to repair the consequences of taking things on Faith alone.
Deja Vu is a glitch in the matrix. Our perception is forever changing. Life is a mighty river. History and Time move on.
