1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

circle of life

today people might say life is like a movie. good or evil might be evil. babies come to the world connect with their inner self, their need, the body language of the people around them that's the ways the lear to live. but as years go through feelings, sensations, needs are left behind and now is the time of technology, to each other is old-fashioned, looking into somebodies eyes, get a real connection, writing down memories a dairy.

we need to back to real connections, caring about people around you and spending quality time with them. we need to find back the way to connect with ourselfs, let out our emotions, sensations, our real tastes without caring about what other might think/say about,but especially without judging others way of living, feeling and loving.  

as we grow we lose our ties with our real selves, and we get too much involved with media, work, politics. we become so much troubled that our energy vanishes away and we only have the disposition to sit in front of the tv on turn off ourselves.   that's unbearable, we need to find out the way not to lose ourselves on the road to adulthood. but especially we have to find a way to keep children on the track. it would be easier for them when they grow ´s a lot of people on that track you just need to keep your eyes wide open and you´ll see it.
