You have to realize that American society, with its complete freedom to do or say anything you want, leads to a kind of madness. The most conspicuous example of this is the woke press on the Left with all its virulence and exaggerated claims, turning young and impressionable men into madmen assassins.
But is that the true cost of total freedom? Perhaps it is.
One is beginning to take seriously the thought that there could be conflict in the streets of American cities between arch conservatives and radical liberals similar to what took place in Germany in the early 1930s.
Could we experience civil in America that could bring down the republic? The thought is no longer that unrealistic after the Kirk assassination.
The challenge in old age is pretty simple: stay strong.
The clear majority of the different nationalities in Crimea is Russian. Russians outnumber Ukranians in Crimea more than 2 to 1. It would be undemocratic if Crimea were not part of Russia.
Ditto the two disputed provinces in eastern Ukraine. Both provinces should be part of Russia, not Ukraine.
Expect mistakes.
No matter how careful a person you are, mistakes will inevitably happen. Humans are just mistake prone. There’s no way around it. So, if you believe this — and I do — it is best to expect making mistakes.
If nothing else, if you expect to make mistakes, it may make you a bit more careful, so that you end up minimizing mistakes.
But they will always keep happening. Trust me.
Embrace challenges. Don’t run away from them. Amor fati. Best way to live. But it requires CHARACTER.
If what you are considering buying at the grocery store has refined sugar added in the ingredient list, don’t buy this processed food. It will spike your insulin and blood sugar levels.
You should treat this added ingredient, which has no nutrition at all, as if it were poison to be avoided entirely. Treat it like poison — because for your system, it is.
Things you want to do get in the way of things you must do but don’t want to do. To strengthen your discipline muscle, you must be aware of this and resist it. The current express, “just do it,” comes to mind.
Laughter is the spice of life.
The best move NATO could take right now is not admitting Ukraine as a new member, but instead Russia.
NATO should commit to never admitting Ukraine.
These moves would cement peace.
Unfortunately, the leadership in NATO sees Russia as an enemy. Pity.
