Sophistication of culture, society, does not grant unlimited
success or 'status quo' preservation. Examples: Egypt,
Persia, Greece, Etruscans, Rome.

Great Empires had two challenges. First - external
adversary, second - internal (within). Internal adversary
is far more harmful than external.
Same rule apply not only to macro, but micro as well -
a person.
Time (carbon copy).
Present, de facto, does not exist.
Humans are embedded, equally,
in the past, and a  future.
Past is  important source of wisdom
for what may come.
In "our" dimension, ultimate punishment
is being "stuck"  between  past and the  future -
personally and globally.

Tracing  
Any man who concentrate or cause "cracks"
in human character, soul, instead of empowering
the soul to reach  higher  level of  understanding
and unity with God, is undermining, even causing
devastation of the foundation on which religion,
code of ethics was built.
The source of motivation - conduct - of such
a person can not come from positive force.



To Two Nations

Proud eagle, once flew so high,
Now, in shameless cage
Of deception, stealing, lies,
Wake up, open your eyes,
Make your own future
And fly once again
Above the crowd.
Break away from wolves
Hiding behind mirror eyes,
Don't trade your hopes, noble dreams,
Call faithful daughters and sons
To Independence of judgements.

Long habit on other side,
Heart of gold,
Remained us the wisdom and nation's pride,
Wake up!
Don't give up!
First Lady, The Mother of the Greatest of Sons,
The Queen,
Her shield defeated many times
Heartless minds, greedy hands.
Faith, tradition, wisdom,
Determination, goodness of hearts,
Your future signs.
Etruscans developed highly advanced society, which
consequently gave birth to the Roman Empire. It is also
probable that they were linked with enigmatic Atlantis.
 
Life on Earth is no more no less than selection process,
either for  single individual or society as a whole. Each
individual represent unique design, which translate - you
are very precious !
Middle East is the key to find a solution to differences
between three powerful religions. If we will be able to
overcome those obstacles than we will  open a door to the
next level, more advanced. It is a key, very important test
for humanity, too important to ignore it.
By the way, religion is not an issue, the people who use
religion as a political tool is the root of the problem.
Religion, which is more involved in politics than purify the
human character, soul, become increasingly an
association, a franchise, which progressively corrupt the
meaning of critical message in social evolution.
End Of Times? What End Of Times?! So called Rapture,
End of Times is simply a New Beginning. Of course some
of us will miss a boat, but that's(hopefully) a minority. I also
hope to get a ticket too... .
There is nothing more pleasant than sincere smile on the
face of a stranger. There is nothing more sad than smile,
which has it's purpose beyond sincerity.
If we are about to witness emerging new global
entities (countries), than fundamental question is -
what new, perhaps refreshing, they will bring to the
world, besides ethnic, religious, nationalistic
manifestation and ambitions.

Competition is one of the most important venues to
maintain steady progress -
fair play is required to
maximize the benefits.

If you begin to think that another person
is as important as you are, that's - equality.

What can be more satisfying than transforming
an enemy into friend ?
Are you ready to transform and to be transformed ?

Machiavellian attitude of government does not meet
modern requirement, standard of government since
1911.
First World War, Russian Revolution, II World War, and
finally invention of nuclear power clearly indicate
invalidity of Machiavelli's model of governing and social
responsibility.
French Revolution, I World War, Russian Revolution, II
World War, are examples of sharp division between
government and the people.
Past conflicts from limited (prior to I World War) through
total ( I World War, II World War) to global ( II World
War, invention of  nuclear power)) also indicate urgent
need to make a necessary correction to  "update"
invalid model of government. By the way, was it ever
valid ?
Modern government in increasingly interconnected
world must carry  burden  of  global  responsibility and
adjust the methods to facilitate not only limited
geographical area and interest (USA, EU, Russia,
China, India, Israel to name a few).
Technology is the major factor, which require - urgently -
changes of the role of government in modern times.
As I have indicated in my book " Follow The Light,
exciting journey... .  - " Is technology exceeding in it
accelerated pace our frame of conscience of moral,
ethical laws and religious values ? "
I sincerely hope that this question is as invalid as so
called Machiavellian old political morality. If not, than we
are on a straight path to undermine everything we have
achieved throughout the centuries.
In my opinion United Nations should play more
significant role as the foundation for the future global
government. One of the steps to achieve it, is to
incorporate NATO as integral part of the UN.
 
Feelings
... Make your mark
Showing your feelings !
Like sparrows, clouds and fabric of Space
Leave behind storms
And stretch your arms to eternity
Where you belong.

Numbers don't mean anything. They represent
objective values in which our lives are embedded.
What would have happened, if we were able to  
"inject" love and compassion into equation... .?
Utopia is achievable.

If you perceive kindness as weakness, than you are

Beauty can not be defined, controlled.
Beauty can only be contained with selfless love,
compassion.3/3/2007
There is no precise definition as who we are as human
civilization. I recognize  three distinctive stages, which in most
part define our history. We are either before the war, during the
war, or after the war.
We build, we destroy, we rebuild. If above  conclusion is correct,
that means that we are a civilization of re-builders, which in the
context of progress means that for one step forward we make
two steps backward.
One question remain - how to measure human suffering
and loss ?  In this context we are no more than destructive force.
The sweetest  words in human vocabulary is  
PEACE, LOVE, FRIENDSHIP
Christ's adversary always implant questions to
torment the human heart. Christ's adversary never
provide answers to calm the human heart.

In terms of technology, we invented more ways to destroy than to
fix it.
Rapid change in climate pattern is parallel
correlated with the human genetic code, which
won't be able to adjust at this rate. Large portion
of the human population will suffer especially
those, who live in undeveloped countries, due
to the technological limitations. Another aspect
is psychological, emotional and somatic
"discomfort" associated with rapid /sometimes
violent/ climate change, which will irreversibly alter
our way of life.

Science. Just be open minded. There is so much more to discover.
Religion has it's source in love/feeelings/, and science. Otherwise
you  wouldn't know about it's existence. 4/7/2007

There so much anxiety still, about socialism. Evident paradox
of our time, is that "western world" /with some exceptions/,
is increasingly more socialistic than a system, which  claimed
socialistic values.

Pizza, as we all know, is one of the most popular foods.
Beside it's culinary values, pizza has one extraordinary
"ingredient", which makes it so special. It is no secret that round
shape in our subconscience translate to unity, equality, sharing.
The combination of taste, psychology, makes pizza very popular
among people of all ages, backgrounds.4/7/2007
























Time is  like extremely low density  "fluid" in motion. Time can be
stretched, shrink, move forward or backward.
Information is never lost in the universe. Laugh, cry, conversation,
thoughts, and feelings are "recorded" in a complex "grid". They
never fade away.
Our understanding of the universe is based on limited perception,
knowledge, due to the limited use of our brain potential.
Time was designed as  dividing force between
dimensions-universes /.
Despite our rich imagination and logic,
we are unable to visualize life, where time does not exist.
If time doesn't exist, than what happens... .? This simple, logical
question illustrate our limited perception, and that's where
God-Superior Being-exist (terminology contradiction).
The closest we can get to "feel"  perpetual  existence is a thought,
and conscience.

Abortion is not about personal responsibility, freedom. Abortion
is about  social responsibility, and how we project, define ourself,
as human race. One of the most fundamental values, which every
each of us cherish, is right to exist, and be part  of the great,
precious  human family /immediate or extended/.

Behind vast land, hard working, talented people, there is an Idea,
which make America, well America. No wonder so many people
came here, and even more wish to come, and live. People from
around the world, are willing to leave their homelands, language,
tradition, and start new life, with new hope, energy to succeed. One
of my personal experiences, which I like to recall, as perhaps
illustration, why... ,is seeing immigrants,  who live not only across
the streets, but literally next to each other, in apartment buildings,
sharing space conducting business, where divisions cultivated for
century's in their own countries, continents, are diluted.
People, down deep in  their subconcience desire to live, to grow, to
succeed in peace, despite differences, which on many occasions
were
established in their homelands, even before they were born.
It is amazing phenomenon, indeed. Old, fundamental
values(peace,tolerance,sharing common goals) , are still  rejected
in so many places. It is almost pathetic to talk about it.

There was never contradiction between science, and religion. Both  
complement each other.7/19/2007



Conscience, is the main ingredient of the decision making
process.
Conscience, is the quint essence of knowledge, beliefs,
experience, and the ability to recognize the difference between
right and wrong, which we all have built in the fabric of our
existence.
Don't suppress it!

One of the most effective ways to maintain proper weight,  is to
stop eating after five a clock in the afternoon.
Obesity, as many professionals indicate is mainly caused by
addiction to food, and should be treated as such.
Another important step is to divide your "regular meal" by  half, if
you have tendency to eat more than you should-as I do. Digesting
more calories than we can burn will cause, well you know.
Sugar is energy. Sugar is good, as long as is natural, and digested
in proper amount /honey, oranges/. Avoid eating fruits, and
vegetables with lot of sugar, at least three hours before you go to
sleep.
The best time to eat food containing sugar is early morning
and noon.
Good mood transformer is chocolate, which will not only deliver
energy, but will make you more mentally vital.
At present time one of the most important aspect  to
determine is if fruits and vegetables can still deliver the same
amount of vitamins, minerals as they did fifty, or a one
hundred years ago, which is highly questionable.
The key to longevity for most of us /regular  people with fairy good
health, and metabolism compatible to their age/ is digestive
system.
Another important aspect to maintain the good health is to
introduce  screening for prarasites/once a year/, especially for
children. This is "the best well kept secrets in the modern world", as
many professionals indicate. Parasites are the true Aliens
in a human world.
Human body is the best anti-oxidant "machine" you can imagine. If
you are able to limit your food to a minimum once a week, and
literally feel hungry, than your body will not only remove excess of
water, fat, but most of all toxins from leaver, etc..
Some people only drink few glasses of water, or tea with a
teaspoon of sugar, which is roughly 100 calories.
Vitamin C is extremely important source  to boost immune system,
nervous system, and obviously excellent antioxidant /lemon, red
grapefruit/.
Good immune system booster is also achievable through "hot and
cold shower", which will make your blood circulating like you were
a teenager, delivering more oxygen to your body.
Avoid obnoxious people, which equal less stress.
/Please rely on professional advice. This is not a substitute for
professional advice, just subjective, personal opinion, and limited
knowledge/.

Politicians are the wholesalers of ideas /just joking/.

Politics - recycling of ideas, which were already invented.

Love supposed to make us better. If it doesn't, than it's not love.
You can't make me to hate - you, or anybody else.
9/5/2007

God have never said you should not have any possessions,
or wealth.
What Jesus said, is the priority of values, which should come first,
and the willingness to give away all your possessions - whenever
He ask, which you will give away anyway.
Obviously above notion is irrelevant in real life, and it's a waste of
time  to  contemplate, or comment. The most appealing value
in modern times/all times for that matter/ is what you have/own,
and who you know, less relevant is how you get there /Machiavelli/.
It is about control. Ugly, unacceptable.
9/10/2007

In terms of religion, everyday life, the only acceptance you need
is from God. Nothing is more important, than your soul. Nothing.
9/10/2007

Very important, and easy to maintain self evaluating tool, is to be
true with ourselves, and values we are trying to convey. We don't
need to spend thousand of dollars, or countless hours to evaluate
our performance /psychoanalisys/ - mirror should be sufficient.
Mirror effect - the true reflection of who we really are. Very scary,
indeed.
9/10/2007

We need to expand the notion of the family.
9/10/2007

I could never understand how so called family people can hurt,
cheat, manipulate other people, and justify their actions
by primitive, narrow definition of the family.
By the way, no one can hurt you more than those closest to your
heart. It feels better to be hurt by your own, than be hurt
by the stranger. Isn't it pathetic!?
Acceptance of suffering, sources of suffering,
is a strange psychological phenomenon.
Despite sophistication of our civilization, we are still function
according to the  TRIBAL MENTALITY.

The light barely squeezed through the window tiny holes. Chaotic
room was  filled with broken furnitures, boxes, unimportant papers,
dolls without legs, cars with just three wheels.
-Hi, my name is Mark, Henry Wieese called the other day asking  
to help you, and  your family.
-Yes, we have this freaking problem since we've moved into this
shit   hole, which is almost six years.
He was constantly moving from one corner of his apartment,  to the
next. Hector  was excited seeing me, like we have already  met.
Indeed, small, filthy space, which he, his wife, and a young daughter
occupied was anything you could call home, sweet home.
After a while my eyes adjusted. Hector's wife was sitting on a bed
reading Sun Times. What a pathetic scene, I thought. Sun Times,
and this hopeless inner city dungeon.
She was huge, Elena that is. She remained me " Big Bertha", the
enormous cannon. I beginned to smile thinking about it. Her ass
was the size of my  Taurus, and  her "babushka" type breast, like
two tremendous cannon balls standing out, ready to explode.
Her English was smooth,  as her cheap gin breath.
-Hi Mark, we were expecting you. We`are tired of this freaking crap.
-Have you seen my daughter ?, she asked,
-She is sitting in the living room.  
Living room, what living room !? I thought.
The whole place was like, old abandoned, terrestrial military
warehouse from the "Gone with the Wind" movie.
I hate this movie, and most of all the stupid girl, whose only purpose
was to inflict pain, whoever she touched.
-Mark, please be careful, our daughter is ill, as you can see.
Yes, there she was, sitting quietly by the tall Gothic window. Tiny
body in strange pose, indicating something serious about her
health.
Her name was Janina. Pale, almost yellow skin, and this eerie
expression on her face, instantly changed my mood. We looked
at each other in silence. Her eyes were like two vibrant, gorgeous,
precious stones full of life, speaking out loud with hope,
and determination. No, they were screaming !
I want to live! I want to live!
She was probably ten, maybe eleven years old.
-Nice to meet you Janina. Finally, I was able to say something.
I wasn't sure about "nice" word, but for some reason, I couldn't
come up with anything better to say.
-Hi, she quietly replied.
Now, it was evident, her speaking was also affected by her illness.
I'm sure, she never go for walk, or leave her "apartment", to enjoy
the fresh summer breeze in the Windy City.
-How old are you, Janina?
-Nineteen, I am nineteen.
Something, something invisible  squeezed my throat. I couldn't  
speak. Tears were eager to spill my cheeks.
No more than an hour earlier, I saw  eighteen, maybe nineteen
years old lovers, kissing each other passionately
on  Division Street.

Homeless - severe  disappointment with life, and inability to face
obstacles. Self pity in suffering.
9/14/2007

In terms of economy, employment, as well as personal
relationships, people/employee, are defined as two major groups
in modern society: commodity, or an asset.
Person should never be treated, considered as commodity, even
if her, his performance is sometimes below expectations.
Both, the commodity, and an asset attitude is unacceptable
in personal relationships.
Commodity, and an asset in human relationships, personal,
and professional, are responsible for injustice, wars, unhappiness,
and inequality issues. Both are extremely materialistic.

If Temple, or Church can not calm your  anger, prejudice, than what
can?
These are the wrinkles of your heart, and mind. I thought you are
a wrinkle free, at least during the Holiday.
9/16/07

Freedom is the most relative,  the most misunderstood ,
and the most cherished values of  all.
Ultimate freedom can be achieved only through awareness.
Freedom is the state of mind, not a collection of law, rules.
The true freedom has it's source in  natural, inner understanding
of good and evil.
The distinction between good and bad, understanding
of  principals, which can be implemented  through the free will,
are the gates, which lead to the  truth, and everlasting  freedom.
Laws, Constitution are not indication of freedom, they are,
de facto, the indication of our limitations.

Subliminal messages are as old as is our civilization.
At the beginning shamans used all kinds of tricks to make
an impression.
Throughout the ages, this technique became more effectively used,
as science, and knowledge progressed. Only God know, how  
widely  subliminal messages were used,  influencing history
/especially dramatic events/, art, music, sport, human relationships,
and most of all, the politics.
Modern technology provide even more flexibility,  
to use this extremely harmful manipulation technique.
Subliminal manipulation of the human reactions is dangerous,
should be prohibited, and prosecuted.
Subliminal manipulation is a crime.
It's impossible to precisely asses the depth of penetration into the
human psyche, by this formidable weapon/tool, which have
the potential to induce illness, emotions and reactions.
Subliminal manipulation can be as simple as shape, color, body
language/visual/, scent, taste, and as complex as sound /music,
conversation/, or the combination of all of the above.
9/17/2007

Evolution
In Twenty First Century, the evolution of the humanistic values
is far more important, urgent, than contemplating the evolution
of our species in general.
Our civilization is catching second breath chasing
technology.
Technology is a double edge sword, which can cut our feet off
/just an expression to illustrate the complexity, and consequences/.
This is perhaps the most difficult challenge  humans face since
the beginning of our presence here on Earth, and will continue
to be present, as long as we will exist /or to the end, if you will/.

Is a new military conflict on the horizon?!
9/18/2007

It's been 18 years since Poland begin to implement new economic,
and social order. Eighteen years for the country is really not that
much. Or is it !?
Regarding Polish economy, and in fact European economy, which
Poland is actively participating , changes are very dramatic, due
to the new economic system, new European rules. Until 1989,  
there was significant number of factories, agriculture was based on
private farmers/small, but still private enterprises/, which in some
cases were performing quite well, and other were damned due to
the poor managerial performance.
There is no secret, that Poland is mainly agricultural country,
despite the fact, that  factories, service sector was  expanding
during socialism era. Polish people, were able to find jobs, even
if the cost of employment , in some instances, were well above
the goods, they  could  produce. Economy in 1980, was
in crisis. But still there was  number of economic entities, with
positive cash flow, impressive modern equipment,
and capable management team. Other factories were not
performing as well, but  after some managerial adjustments
and investments, they might have been quite profitable.
Last decade was mainly about dismantling existing economic
capacity under so called privatization. Privatization, is a very
elegant word for buying cheap, especially  in the middle
of the transition process from the old system, to the so called free
market.
By the way, the modern model of capitalism is, de facto corporate
capitalism, which doesn't have "face", and well defined
responsibility toward particular country, or system-except
in England. They are, in fact, multinational entities, where emotional
attachment is toward profit only. This is  the new, improved model
of communism with central management, extreme team work
emphasis, and loyalty, which has it's boundaries around
organization only /investors, members, or those who qualify/, they
represent, and serve. In 1980's Poland's debt  was 40 billion. For
the country with over 40 million citizens, favorable location between
East and West, which may allow   transport of goods from East,
South, and West, as well as North /Baltic Sea/.
Chech Republic, Slovakia, and Austria doesn't have  their own
access to the sea ports. From  this perspective
Poland is extremely well located, in order to conduct business with
multi national trade organizations, systems, countries,
and to become well prospering entity, under the new system.
Since that time  the majority of Polish workers, are forced to find
temporary employment outside the country, /mainly within
European Union/.
Majority of factories were dismantled, sold, closed by foreign
investors, who were often representing the same type
of the economic activity in their own countries /competition/.
Another very interesting phenomenon is agriculture, and farming.
As I have mention Poland is mainly  agricultural country. Polish
farmers compared with western European, and American
counterparts, were holding small patches of land, which very often
could not produce sufficient amount of goods to distribute outside
the farm. Despite this, they were working on their own land,
and  were self sustained, and on top of that, there was a very strong
attachment  to the land, and the country, The quality of the products
were exceptional. The problem was quantity, and the cost.  
Of course European Union offer payments ,"help" toward farmers,
in order to limit production to the level, which may allow farmers to
distribute goods from other countries. As a result, many Polish
farmers are sitting duck /they are even getting paid/, or looking for
a job in English pubs, Irish , French, Italian,Spanish farms, German
factories.
Another phenomenon, which is  burning my gray brain tissue in the
last ten years is banking, and currency. Polish National Bank, which
should be the centerpiece of the country's economy, is at least
partially controlled by investors from outside Poland.
Polish currency is "competing" with   US Dollar, and Euro.
Someone hold me, I am about to explode.
Anyone, who can hold a pen, and is able to perform simple
mathematic equation,  can see what it does to the country's well
being. It's a cancerous tissue!!!, which has it's beginning during
Kwasniewski era, and currently under Kaczynski brothel. There is
no excuse: they are well educated, they are from  good families,
they should know the limits of compromise.
Next, very important subject is Poland's foreign policy. As`we all
know, every nation, country is defined by location. There is nothing
we can do about that. One of the most important tasks,
is to maintain good relationship with it's neighbors, and beyond.
Very sensitive subject was always Russia, and  Germany,
and for a good reason.
Despite the less than dignifying history, which we share, there
is always room for dialog, cooperation, and  friendship.
One element must be always emphasized - respect. In 1990's
Russia was ready for a change. I myself was stunned observing,
what was happening in this enormous country. As`far as I can tell,
the deal was as follow: Russia was willing to give the  green light
for the business, which was controlled mainly by Russian Jews,
and other investors, under the condition to not influence the politics.
Everything was going well, until the second part was violated.
Russian government went ballistic, putting in jail some of the
perpetrators, and so forth. During that time Kwasniewski did his
part screwing up relations between Poland, and Russia.
Germany is the target number two, but under new managers, which
are Kaczynski brothers. It's no secret that Germans /at least some
of them/ are still have dreams about Silesia, and few other patches
of land in Poland. It doesn't mean that government have
to elevate the problem, which can be easily handled by skillful
diplomats, and European Union.
Much more  interesting, are those who sometimes identify
themselves as Germans, but in fact they are not. These people are
still hold in their hearts Prussian pride, and memories, and are still
live in the past hoping to revive the old glory, power. It's is silly , but
the year 1525 is still alive in their memories. The year of 1525, was
the reason why Poland cease to exist in 1772, which historical
sources failed to emphasize. These people have a broad contacts
in England, USA, Germany, Italy, and pretty much everywhere there
is a business to do.  They are talented,  well educated, good
soldiers,  have blue eyes,  blond hair, and no regrets. The perfect
combination of two exceptional ethnic groups: Prussians/Germans
at the time/, and Jews. Very interesting indeed.
Politics in Poland is complex, and  simple at the same time,
and is  the perfect lesson  how minority /or a narrow group
of people/ can control the government, and the whole country.
They key is to inject differences, and navigate between all parties.
Unity is impossible to achieve, confusion, lack of trust, and in effect
dysfunctional government, and politics, foreign and domestic. The
country become increasingly weak, is losing respect , economy is
suffering as well. Same rules of engagement are working
exceptional well to dismantle families.
The goal for the present leaders is to eliminate competition at all
cost, and  create one dominating power. But, there is also one very
important element, which makes them quite unique. They are
creating their own opposition/competition, which  has been known
in a business world for a long time. Win, win situation. One of the
examples is Kwasniewski vs. Kaczynski. Maestro bravissimo!!!
Another playground in a dirty politics is to revive appetites to
restore old powerful families, elites, which are representing  
impressive intellectual values, as well as broad contacts. The
question is, how far they will go in order to get what they want.
There is one example, which maybe helpful. The  example is
England's Royal Family, which for centuries maintain  very precious
virtue, which is love for the country,  they  represent, and serve.
Very disturbing for me is also the use of the religion, as well as the
holly places, Shrines,  by politicians, whenever their ratings suffer.  
Czestochowa  is  far beyond presidency, politics, party,
and statistics. It is a Holly Place, and should be treated as such,
with respect, dignity. People, who really believe, would not use it,
as a marketing tool.

Abstract thinking is one of the elements, which differentiate human
from animal.
Abstract thinking is a gift, which is directly responsible for  people
like Toulouse Lautrec, Vivaldi, Newton, Copernicus, Wright
Brothers,  Kasparov, Charlie  Chaplin, Plato, and every human
being on the planet,  who think, feel, desire.
People, who are equipped with excessive abstract thinking ability,
Salvatore Dali, Rodin, for example, are geniuses.
Abstract thinking, is the  foundation for creativity. The beginning
of the thought itself, is an abstract.

In terms of illness and disease, humanity will always face two major
opponents. First are viruses, second is stupidity.
Virus, and stupidity have two common elements. Both don't
recognize borders, and have tendency to evolve from bad to worse.

The primary role of education is not to obtain knowledge, but
to learn to think. Knowledge is just the byproduct of thinking.
Thinking is a very hard work. Wisdom require advanced thought.
You can either use your brain as can opener, or you can try
to unlock the universe /micro, or macro/.
9/24/3007

One of the proven  ways to learn to think,  is contemplation.
Contemplation will also allow you to meet yourself. Contemplation
is more empirical, exhausting than meditation, which primarily  
focus on relaxation.
9/24/2007

Traffic congestion is excellent time to contemplate
/my personal preference/.

The most important part of sleep is timing, which is determined  
by  natural clock.  For most of us  the most beneficial time to sleep
is between 9pm, and 5 am.
Napoleon for example was able to regenerate the whole body,
including nervous system, with just four  to five hours of sleep, but
that's exception.
9/24/2007

The human spirit  can not be "treated, touched, affected,
influenced" by individual, or society. The human spirit remain  
in pure form, spiritual virginity, despite actions or deeds, which defy
the spirit.
Human can only change the status of the spirit. In terms of religion,
the status means Paradise, purgatory, hell.
The purity of the Spirit is beyond description.
9/26/2007

When you make someone happy, you make the whole world
a better place.
Have you seen  happiness, which can be expressed only through
tears?
These tears are the jewels of the universe, as we know it, which
were  born from  perpetual love, intelligence,  with smile,
and the will to share all of this, so you can experience it  too.
9/29/2007


Tears are the most  human expression of emotions, which
exclusively  respond to the happiness, drama.
Tears never respond to mediocrity.
Tears are contagious.
9/29/2007

Knowledge is the sum of collective effort, but only geniuses can
achieve perfection, unique perspective, or both, which  were never  
previously explored, or experienced. Congratulation to those, who
were able to achieve it.
9/29/2007

Achievement is the harvest of talent, and  progress.
9/29/2007

Talent is given not earned.  Only persistence, and the will to polish,
share the talent, or talents are rewarded. And they should be.
Wasting talent is  unforgivable. Talent is a public property.
Those societies, countries, which do not promote talent, will never
go beyond mediocrity.
Talent  carry powerful symbolic, timeless, promotional value,
for the society, nation, civilization, idea, even religion.
At the end, talent become  global property, and pride.
If it's genuine.
9/30/2007

Sensitivity, is the natural ability to see the world through
someone else's eyes. Good illustration to prove above thesis
is poetry /Shakespeare/, politics /President A.Lincoln,
Martin Luther King/, science /Pasteur/, music/Chopin/, art
/Delacroix/, and obviously religion.
Without sensitivity there is no compassion, love, friendship,
sacrifice.
Sensitivity is essential in  human relationships, without it, there
is no relationship.

Curiosity is the most effective, powerful  learning tool.
Curiosity + Observation = Perception

Cloning create very serious moral, existential challenge
for our civilization, humanity. Above challenge target  the core
values to which human being should live, and attempt to promote
throughout our presence here on Earth.
Cloning is very tempting  alternative from health, illness
perspective, to create the new human - maybe even "super
human"- a new species, which will be anything but original,
precious person. Despite almost the  same features, visual
and psychological, this alternative, new species, will be just
the illusion of people. At present  time the most advanced
technologically countries / Israel, Italy, USA, England, France,
Germany to name a few / collect legally and illegally  genetic
materials, which will be, or is already used to "create" new species,
to give them the competitive edge in the future.
It's a fact.
People, who exceed in sport, science, art, journalists, politicians,
religious figures, which represent exceptional talents,  are likely
to become  voluntarily, or involuntarily  potentially good genetic
material to "collect, preserve, and recreate".  The sponsors are
generally  governments, military, which have the means,
and  financial capacity, religious leaders, international
corporations, organizations.   
Genetic material, which is used to clone or in vitro, without
emotional, passionate, spontaneous aspect between man,
and the woman /partners/, will create  new, unpredictable,
inhumane being. In terms of religion, cloning or involunteer in vitro
/without consent from  both partners/, is the rebellion against the
Divine.

Love is not for everyone, unfortunately.
10/4/2007

We can not control our feelings, but we can learn to control
our reactions.
I feel sorry for those, who plunder their own  emotional sphere,
at any age.
You must be either a fool, selfish, rich, insecure, famous, too young,
or too old.
10/4/2007

Those who like to play with  other people feelings, will at some
point, victimize their own life. They are immature, sometimes
stupid, and most of the time cowards. By the way, they will do this,
sooner or later,  to those they are committed, or "love".
Motivation is generally irrelevant.
I forgot to mention that love can be bought. You can purchase
happiness, or be purchased, for comfort, recognition, illusion,  
and convince  yourself to justify decision,  /the power of self
suggestion/.
This reminds me the conversation between mother,
and  daughter.
"-My dear, remember, it's better to cry in the Mercedes, than
on a bicycle".
Well, what can I say, she is right... .
10/5/2007


Sincerity is the essence for constructive dialog, and personal,
social progress,  as well as excellent antidote to prevent
deterioration of relationships. Anyone, who violate sincerity,
or consider sincerity as weakness, doesn't deserve your time.
Lack of sincerity, honesty will always produce unhappiness,
emotional suffering, failer.
Sincerity  manifest  the most  it's glooming power in true
friendships, love, and as an expression of respect.
Sincerity is equivalent with care /sincerity = care/.
10/7/2007

Geometry is the practical application of mathematics.
Geometry equal  creativity, harmony, symmetry, progress, artistic.
/G=c+h+s+p+a/
Geometry, and similarly DNA, provide unlimited number
of combinations, based on limited, geometrical forms /"units",
chromosomes/, which is wonderful.
Hopefully  geometry will never approach, in it's values  statistics,
which very often represent duality, dishonesty, extreme materialism.
10/11/2007

The Biblical story /The Old Testament/ of the prodigal son,
is  inaccurate interpreted.
First of all, the Biblical prodigal son didn't,  for example, disrespect,
gossip, betrayed, tricked, steal from his father . His sin was
mismanagement of wealth, which was entirely consumed
on entertainment.
He was a classic party guy, immature, irresponsible, who was
probably too young to maintain, and increase  possessions.
The story provide  two very important lessons.
Conclusion number one is loving, passionate forgiveness
from the father.
Second lesson, which is even more crucial, is the transformation
of the prodigal son, who confessed his mistakes, and begged
for forgiveness. The gravity of the story is  the son, who wasted   
wealth,  personal courage to  admit  wrongdoing,
and the genuine  thirst  for forgiveness.
Without son's transformation  / change of heart /  there would
be  no story, or maybe different kind of story.

/Under construction/
Summer afternoon, eight floor, and  mines like mushrooms  
popping up from Silesia's soil rich with coal, sweat, blood,
uncertainty of everyday life, toothless workers, the salt of the land,
abused, neglected generation after generation, digging for black
gold.
No bitterness, no complaints, only smiles on dark bruised faces,  
pink wrinkles, mute witnesses of  heroic existence,  fear,
unforgiving time, lubricating humble life with few, loud laughs,
beer, and vodka among neighborhood comrades.
No one was home except my father and myself. I was waiting for
this moment since I got married. Father was reading something,
as always. Yes, the "old man" was constantly reading books,
newspapers, magazines, and play  harmonica from time to time,
indicating that piling up stress was almost unbearable.
Perfectionist, always on time, elegant, eloquent, tough and this
undefined inner struggle in his eyes, he was trying to hide for all
those years. I'm not supposed to read my father's mind. I felt guilty
invading his privacy.
-Mark, are you trying to tell me something ? -   his voice interrupted
uncomfortable silence.
Our conversations were usually short, without elaborating personal
egos, intelligence, but rather exchanging thoughts without words,
like two checker players with almost identical pattern of thinking
with infinite number of combinations.
Despite  emotional struggle, I could not afford not to ask him this
one question, which was hunting  my conscience for years.
I didn't know  this was our last face to face meeting.
Tension on my face, and voice was obvious.
-What it is that you want to know, Mark ?. He asked again.
-You know, as well as I do, that our conversations are less than  
productive.
He was  practical, down to earth  analyzing every subject from the
perspective and knowledge, you can obtain only through life
experience.
On the contrary, my views, opinions  were based on pink
sunglasses syndrome, with ability to wear and see reality, which  
was anything but pink, and  he did not have patience for this.
This time was different, more personal, very personal.
We looked at each other like two ancient wrestlers, who are trying
to figure it out the best attack, and defence strategy, gathering
strength through self control, body language, words.
He was consistent, uncompromising, even cruel, but his eyes were
delicate, loving, sensitive, smart, and this contradiction caused  
confusion in my head.
My mother represented quite the opposite. Emotional  in every
moment, compassionate, perceptive, but her eyes were egoistic,
maybe cold.
Compatibility counts, especially at daylight, but sexuality will
manifest its fire  more through opposites than compatibility, which
is  predictable, boring, without flavor - emotional pasteurization.
I assume they were, at least at the beginning, the most passionate
lovers under the sky. Dr. Freud would be  very satisfied reading my
"analysis". I'm sure he would be.

After the funeral ceremony, I was standing alone in my room on the
eight floor apartment, which our family occupied for so long.
Unexpectedly my mother was standing next to me, looking through
window. I didn't hear her coming.  I was far away from  anywhere.
- Son,  you are the harvest of great love, passion between me,
and your father.  Always remember this - she said .
-You are the child we desired, wanted,  waited for.
-I miss my George / "Lolus" / terribly. She was crying, and hugging
my father's dark red sweater.
This was probably the most  desirable  funerary speech every child
would like to hear after parent dies, and  the  perfect band-aid
for a broken heart.

Half an hour later I was still standing at the same place, thinking
about all those years with my parents, brother, vacations, holidays,
and arguments.
My mother slowly opened the door, and entered the room.
I thought, she will cry and hug my father's sweater again.
I just wanted to be alone.
No, she was different this time, very different.
-Mark, she was clearly in control, firm.
-I need money for the flowers, which I ordered on your request.
-I am a widow now, my resources are limited.
Flowers, money, funeral, tears, I couldn't keep up switching gears
after my mom. I'm sure even Fittipaldi would have difficulties as
well. But , she brought me back to earth.

Progressive isolation, ridiculed, diminishing self
esteem, and finally loneliness lead to the tragedy,
which we are experiencing in the last few days.
Apparently he  chose the worst response possible.
No one was around to tell him that the best revenge
is no revenge at all, or revenge can be replaced by
concentrating on subjects, which are truly  
important: school, hobbies, sport, religion, healthy
competition,etc. His vulnerability was transformed
into deadly weapon.
Subsequently so many young, innocent, promising,
irreplaceable lifes were destroyed.
Killer and the victim at the same time was
surrounded by thousands of  people and no one
was able to help.
Isolating someone, who is experiencing depression
is the worst possible option, which accelerate
symptoms, rather than heal.

While I was a teenager, my father gave me few
driving sessions, from which I learned one
important lesson. When I asked him how to define
good driver, he replied; you have to be not only
aware and control how you drive, but equally
important is to watch out for other drivers, and
correct their mistakes in order to avoid collision.
I have to admit that on several occasions I was able
to avoid accident, because of what I have learned,
but interestingly enough, I myself was corrected by
other drivers, who applied the same attitude and
wisdom toward me.
Despite modern mythology of personal
independence, we are more interconnected than
we are incline to admit, and it feels good.4/20/07

There is only one gate leading to the eternal life,
which is love. There is simply no other way.
The world is filled with  broken hearts, which are far
more valuable, than those with self fulfilling desires.
It is impossible to precise define love, but we can
at least recognize the "symptoms".
One of them is desire to make another person
happy, more than yourself, when you think more
often about her or him  than yourself, when giving
makes you smile, fulfilled.
5/6/07

When you disrespect your spouse, partner, lover,
you disrespect yourself.

Modern medicine and the people, who are involved
to ease human suffering, to heal, and to develop
new ways to treat disease,  to prolong life, and  
most of all, the quality of life, are truly amazing.
Despite all of the achievements, there are reasons
for  serious concern about  treatments, which may
cause unintended consequences.
Chemotherapy and radiation are good medical
tools - at this time -  for people, who are diagnosed
with cancer. Chemotherapy and radiation will alter
the human genetic code in a long run.         
Consequences are difficult to predict.
Personally, I prefer not to be altered, DNA that is.

Politics, which is solely based on differences
instead of common goals, may only produce
limited, temporary success. Such politics may lead
to the  chaotic, dysfunctional government,  country,
and  disoriented citizens, which respond to the
sophisticated PR, marketing tricks, mixed
messages.
The paramount role of the politicians, and the
government, should be the well being of the country,
it's  citizens, people, and the future of the next
generations.

The most important ingredients to obtain

Are natural disasters are still natural !!!?
I doubt it.
It's  time to seriously contemplate, and investigate
this phenomenon by the United Nations, scientists,
humanists, journalists, religious leaders, politicians
with conscience, and the whole international
community !
8/15/2007
When proper action is justified!? After 1000, maybe
1 000 000 deaths ? Well, we can always say,  we
didn't know... . It's convenient, safe, and there are
always more qualified to take proper action.
Let's wait for the next one. Nature is unpredictable!
I myself feel excused - until next Bosnia, Darfur,
Tsunami disaster. Lets not exaggerate , it is not in
my  "hood" anyway... . I'm almost late for my first
tango lesson... .

Crime against humanity -  classic example of
how creativity, resources may be used to
undermine the future.
Is technology exceeding in it accelerated pace our
frame of conscience of moral, ethical laws, and
religious values? /Follow The Light, exciting
journey... ./ Rhetoric question!?
8/18/2007
What can be worst than conviction of superiority,
which justify the crime against the Divine - the
perfect human being, or another person.
Consequently another human being doesn't
represent equal value, which leads to the acts of
cruelty, murder, attempts to total control not only
individuals, but the whole ethnic, religious groups,
even nations. It is about breaking moral, ethical
barriers, where every step in that direction will, in
fact, cause  to diminish regrets.
8/19/2007
The solution to  this terrible moral problem, as well
as to prevent from becoming the victims,
is  education, unity, loyalty, forgiveness, which will
empower disadvantage people, ethnic, religious
groups, and nations  to effectively compete, and
become successful.
Unity and loyalty are one of the most cherished
virtues by  God - as long as you play by the rules
/universal values/.

Drama-elegant expression for suffering, pain,
betrayal, loss, unfulfilled hopes and dreams. Why  
humans like drama so passionately?
What can be more exciting than boring times... .
8/24/2007

Would Shakespeare be so famous, if he did not
expose weaknesses, and the true human nature,
where accomplishments are  surrounded
by tears and pain?
Lot of pain. Lot of tears. Drama is easy to follow
while sitting in the living room.
Drama captivate our attention more than love,
friendship, equality, ordinary time. Shall we always
blame our DNA, "genetic noise", instead of the way
we are raised, function, in the highly  competitive
world, where only  acceptable is the first place ?
Sometimes, I'm more afraid of winning than losing.
8/24/2007

Human history is 90 percent drama, and 10%
ordinary times /translate - happy times/.
8/24/2007an

Future can not be precisely predicted, unless is

extend. We shouldn't underestimate the free will,
which ultimately will determine our future. Future
can  be revealed only.

Struggle with faith.
Mother Teresa of Calcutta, Padre Pio.
God  assist those who were chosen to do
extraordinary deeds. God also challenge with
doubt, resignation, denyle.
How would you recognize the praetorian quality
of the soul, if spirit is not challenged, sometimes
very severely.
In this context God doesn't  provide definitive
answers, which cause painful internal struggle,
between being faithful and practical.
Probably, the good illustration of the circumstances
associated with this process is  "spiritual boot
camp", which can be brief, or can be extended
through the lifetime.
You either pass the test, or not. There is nothing
in between. You either belong to Him 100%, or you
fail. Praetorian is the synonym for the most loyal
and faithful, despite circumstances.
Often, after the task is completed, God will
"abandon" you. It's like being naked in the middle
of the wilderness, and suddenly  you realize that the
challenge is beyond your ability to survive, but
reward exceed imagination.
Even Jesus Christ was challenged by His Father.
The difference between being challenged by
humans, and being challenged by God, is that
people often anticipate failer, God expect wining,
every time, every human being.
8/24/2007

"Unforgotten Dance"
-under construction-

Biorythmic fever - Dance!
Tango Milonga naked hours,
Steps unspoiled with mischief,
Overwhelming surge hidden in tiny urban café,
Tide of night in dim river of hearts
Reveal twinkling desires,
Unleashed innocent dreams.
Oh look, fertile night dripping from skys!

Sublime, hypnotic music
Stimulate haunt for rhythm and breath,
Embedded emotions, and movements
In high altitude organic pattern,
Fiery chariots with horses of passion,
True lovers immortal journey
Above the Earth.

Daylight - the traitor!
Harmless, soothing poison of truth,
8/28/2007
Closing its eyelids and lips,
Memory of sorrow diluted in wine.
Quite, enchanting ecstasy of gentle spirits,
Nails touching subtle his skin,
Starlights glooming, as dust of midnight
Continue spitting it's petals
On three and twenty.
Gorgeous, shiny, long, black hair,
Silky skin, memorable vivid lips,
Fresh, never touched dew of pleasure
Still chase memory space,
Precious, blooming reward forever.
Extension of life is always with You and me,
For eternity.

Summertime dance!
Echo trough Autumn, Winter, and Spring,
Memories, the most faithful  of all possessions,
8/28/2007
Pas de deux!
Silly one, two and three, turns and twists,
Ancient DNA sweat - spilled,
I will see you again one day
Beautiful shadow of the past,
I will see you again,
One day... .

Circle is the most universal shape of all, and
provide unlimited, infinite solutions. Square does
not offer as many solutions as circle, but more than
triangle.
While circle offer equality and  consistency, and
similarly square, but triangle is the most
hierarchical. Triangle can stand on it's own, but
square base provide much more practical, logical,
and elegant solution.
In terms of inclusiveness, the circle is the most
inclusive of all shapes, square is second, and the
least inclusive is triangle.

The use of knowledge, technology by human..
8/30/2007

Any speculation regarding potential use of nuclear
weapons, is clearly indication of immaturity,
especially dangerous in politics regardless of
political conscience. Do not forget that we are
highly dependent on technology, which creates not
only unique leverage, but vulnerabilities as well.
I hope that the tone of conversation set by
President Reagan,  President Gorbachev, and
most of all the path of progress, which was based
on mutual respect, and universal goals /peace,
safety, future/, will prevail, despite many attempts
to revive the shadows of the Cold War, which still
haunt our subconscience.
If you want  to become a great leader, than you
must establish boundaries of compromise,
otherwise you will be confused as you are right now.
We don't need nuclear cowboys, but rather the
famous Texas Rangers=Peace Rangers /no
reference to the political establishment/.
9/1/2007

I simply don't want to live in fear. Fear of nuclear,
biological, or any type of war.
9/1/2007

We really must define the true meaning of the word  
winning in the Twenty First Century, until than we
need to rely on common sense.
9/1/2007

"If you want peace, than be prepared for war"- this
ancient quote was valid until the invention
of the nuclear weapons. At present time, the more
weapons you possess, the more vulnerable you are.
Paradox of our time? Yes.
9/1/2007

"War is bad for business"- do you recall this
sentence from the movie, "The God Father"?
9/1/2007

Truth doesn't exist-with one exception.
If truth doesn't exist,  than why is so feared,
and undesirable ?
Do not confuse truth with  facts,
evidence, if you will.

Whoever will control Russia, except Russians, will
eventually enslave the world.

I hope that one day the word "war", will entirely
disappear from our vocabulary, dictionaries.
9/2/2007

Since the beginning, we constantly attempt  
to define ourselves, as human being. There is only
one word, which fully, completely describe of who
we are, that word is conscience.
Conscience, the photosynthesis of all senses,
hopes, desires, past and present experiences,
which are embedded into the every cell.
Conscience, Being Aware, is the most beautiful,
prolific experience, which can be easily achievable
personally, and collectively.
Love, is the  magnifying lens for conscience, being
aware.

Prise and  criticism are highly appreciated.
Criticism and prise have one  common element,
which is motivate to improve, and motivate to not to
disappoint.
9/3/2007

What can be more disappointing than obvious art,
personality.
9/3/2007

It takes more character to bear the burden of losing,
than the burden of winning. Both are unique
challenges, and both are constant elements in our
personal journeys. Losing is easier to bear, if you
play by the rules.
9/3/2007

The Renaissance era was struggling with one
fundamental question: what is more important, form
or content ? Both are equally desirable, but
impressionists proved that content is paramount .
I think the same rule applies not only in art, but
everyday life as well.
9/3/2007

The art is a faithful reflexion of inner, and external
reality of every generation.
9/3/2007

If you truly love someone, than  it's impossible
to transform your feelings into hate. If can  justify,
and seek to hurt this person, than you never truly
loved him or her, but yourself.
Love doesn't recognize hate or revenge, even if it's
unfulfilled, betrayed, it just walks away.
9/3/2007

XIX and XX century, due to the rapid growth
of industrialization, technology and by achieving
the mas production, people irreversibly changed
the society, civilization.
Consequently the mas production led
to  creation of  new economic, social problem,
which is surplus of goods.
XX and XXI century evolved creating  new type
of surplus, which is surplus of wealth, not just
of goods.
Surplus of wealth should be the answer
to the many social issues such as hunger,
immunization, health care, education for all people.
As we all know, the surplus of wealth did not solve
those problems, but became the tool to control
societies, countries, even continents, by narrow
group of people. The progress of our civilization
is determined by materialistic values instead
of moral, humanistic. Consequently due to the rapid
growth of technology, the surplus of wealth,
and of course, so called globalization
/globalization = multinational corporations/, our
civilization made a whole circle going back
to the times where slavery was common, but this
time slavery will be far more severe,  than
thousands of years ago, and not limited to only
undeveloped countries.
New type of slavery will go far beyond physical
limitations, the focus will be on spiritual, intellectual,
psychological, emotional sphere, which is the core
of our existence. This is the beast, to which
all the  people will have to submit at some point.
Major religions will become  increasingly empty
shells with it's symbols, holly scriptures, unable  
to translate the values, to which people supposed
to relate their lives /duality, and double standarts/.
Total control, which even Kafka would not be able
to describe in his writings,  will mark new times,
where person will become a number, insignificant,
easy replaceable  piece of machinery, with strictly
defined role, limited options, or without options.
Increasing disproportion between those who are
eligible, and those who are not, will become
a standard.
Devaluation of honor, friendship, love, empathy,
as well as expected, acceptable standard
of thinking,  and perception of reality will become
prevalent.
Consumption will be synonymous with happiness.
9/23/2007

The worst disease known to humanity is greed
under blanket of decency, and symbols, which
should be free of manipulation, deception, lies.
9/25/2007

Polish democracy is in vegetative state, where
virtually competition between parties, ideas,
ideology doesn't exist, except on one issue-profit
at any cost/prywata/. I
n the past, there was always
someone, or something  to blame /location,
neighbors/. Now, who you are going to blame,
except yourself?/czereb rubaszny/.
The  corruption of Polish political, intellectual,
ideological elite is impossible to comprehend.
My apology to those who really care about the
condition of their country, but it seems that in the
last three hundred years, so called patriots are
insignificant fraction of the total population, with
minimal influence, and capability to navigate
the country in the right direction/milaes zloty rog.../.
9/25/2007

In terms of economy, excessive surplus,
or severe depression, is likely to cause military
conflicts.
Economic depression may cause wars in order
to stimulate growth /production/, multilevel
expansion, "reduction" of population, stimulate
national unity, and patriotic attitudes.
Excessive surplus may cause military conflicts
to reduce surplus, in order to  stimulate
production, research, patriotic attitudes, and social
unity.
Surplus, and depression despite unique opposite
numerical values, are similar representation
of cause, and effect values.
One question remain: is economic depression,
and surplus random, unpredictable, "objective"
social/economic cycle in XXI century ?
If, surplus and depression  stimulate excessive
military spending in every conflict, than where
is the money ?!
Excessive surplus is far more dangerous, than
depression. Excessive surplus equal lack
of economic objectives, social laziness, softening  
patriotic attitudes, which may potentially undermine
the future of the nation.

September 11, will be always synonymous
with national trauma. Since than we experience
political, social fallout, the "hijacking" of domestic,
foreign, economic policies, personal freedom,
separating the country from it's neighbors, friends,
potential friends,  which progressively, and perhaps
irreversibly is changing  America.
America, I hope, will remain still, synonymous
with freedom. Freedom is not a weakness,
it's a strength, which is, and should be the propeller
for success, and progress, as well as a reference  
to other nations, even continents. And this was
the main reason why I came here.

Great influence on American social, and political
status quo, at this time, have people, who  
represent the same state of mind, and values as
those who brought the world to the edge in the past:
wars, revolutions, enslaved nations, countries.
Nothing changed, except methods, which are far
more sophisticated, refined.
These values are not American.

Transition from tangible to speculative model

Learning to ride the bicycle for a young boy, using
gravity, from a nearby hill, was challenging,  fun,
and is one of the earliest retrospections from my
childhood.
Obviously, I didn't know anything about gravity
at that time, but somehow I felt , I could use it to my
advantage.
My mother bought my  first  bike, when I was four,
maybe five years old, which was a real challenge
at that time.  It was in a small village near Krakow.
Father was working some 500 kilometers away.
Mother was busy helping her old mom, in every day
tasks.
Next to my grandmother's home was a small hill,
which I used as a starting point to learn to ride  my
metallic, green bicycle, between two hills, which
were approximately two, to three kilometers apart.
When I stopped in the middle, I had to walk
to the nearest hill, and attempt to challenge myself,
and the little two wheeled  machine, again,
and again, until I learned to ride without help
of  gravity. Bruises, and scratches on knees,
and hands couldn't discouraged young boy.
Above episode  was my first impression
of independence, satisfaction, empowerment,
and joy on a primitive country road,  beautiful
summer day,  between two insignificant country hills.
To this day I feel  gentle wind brushing my face,
and  profound excitement of the new experience.
I guess, I'm still riding that bicycle in my
subconscience, and everyday life.

To contemplate what  God may think
is a blasphemy, but I think He does like America.
I just can't figure it out which political party He  
might prefer.

In modern art, especially paintings, I have one
fundamental problem  recognizing in many art
works,  perfection, technique beyond ordinary,
mastery, which clearly indicate extraordinary
example of human creativity, imagination, and
ability /technique/, which become timeless. When
you look at the old masters paintings, you are
instantly  able to recognize art  work, which
is exceptional.
On the other hand, if art is appealing,  than it's
basic purpose is fulfilled.
Art is a never ending struggle between theme,
subject, purpose, and ability to faithfully convey
above elements through  the technical language.
I think that modern art stretched the notion
of simplicity way too far, to the extend that the
distinction between extraordinary, and average
is sometimes impossible to define, or at least too
fluid.

When my friends begin to die, suddenly I realized
I'm mortal.

Unity of every nation starts with each person.
If nation, group is willing to support, defend each
individual, at any cost, than individual  will have
motivation to return the favor, even to sacrifice
for the benefit of the society as a whole,
/examples: fraternities, military, Jews/.
Neglect of  one citizen, equal the neglect
of the whole nation.
Without unity there is only one alternative-failure.
Maintaining unity between individual,
and society provide solid foundation for success,
and respect outside the group.

As long as we live, and able to breath, there
is alway a chance to change our behaviour.
It's possible that the present time is the critical
selection process. The more people will genuinely
transform, change their blueprint of values,
the better.
Every person, soul is precious,
and of highest importance.

Anyone who take another person's life, is also
taking his, or her sins as their own.

To understand photography,  we need
to comprehend correlation between color,
and black and white.
This probably explains why old masters achieved
artistic, and aesthetic  perfection, which is  still
unachievable for many modern photographers.
There is no precise definition, except guidelines
to follow. Each photograph, either color, or black
and white is unique in timing, expression, subject,
motivation to capture, which provide solid
foundation for creative process.
Artists  can not be limited by definitions, rules
/guidelines/, which should function only as a
reference.

Photography is the only artistic discipline, along
with human retrospective memory, which can
literally stop, freeze time, and bring  those unique
moments back, sometimes during long winter
evenings, rainy summer days. From this
perspective, artistic level is not important.
Sometimes photographs are fading at slower pace
than human memory.

I'm not afraid to live with a broken heart. My fear
is not to have a broken heart at least once in my
lifetime.
