The Papal seat

The Papal seat is where the Pope lives and governs all the catholics around the world, he gives his sermon from the balcony and visits countries around the world which is what is expected of his Holiness. What I can't understand is what gives him the right to indulge in politics, I am catholic and respect the fact that he was chosen by God or the cardinals to be our Pope, how can he by using his position interfere in another countries politics. What he said about the war between Ukraine and Russia was uncalled for, I personally think that he just can't tell the leader of the Ukraine to surrender in order to save lives, although saving lives may be true what about the people of Ukraine who have lost so many lives to the present day and don't want to surrender and become Russians, what if Putin doesn't stop fighting just because Ukraine surrenders, he then starts another war to get back all the ex Soviet countries. When the pope said that he really thinks that a dictator like Putin will just stop because the Pope says so I beg to differ, there was no way to stop Hitler but by force and the whole world coming together to achieve that goal and there's no way that the words from the Pope will stop Putin,I believe in the catholic church but sometimes I disagree with what the Pope says, to tell the people of the Ukraine to give up their country and identity and allow the aggressor to continue his ultimate goal was wrong. TheWest should do all they can to help Ukraine defeat Putin and then the war will end and the loss of life will stop, actions mean more than word's and why the Pope doesn't understand that I don't know but he should and leave the Ukrainians to do what they think is right and what they want, to be Ukrainian, that's all, is that too much for the Pope to understand. Maybe I have no right to speak out against the Pope but I can't help myself because I believe that he was wrong.

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

Terrible

Isn't it just terrible to see once again ordinary people being targeted by bombs and mortars and being once again driven from their homes. The orders obviously coming from the top which of course means non other than the war monger himself, Putin and the Ukrainians can't do a thing to stop it except helping with the evacuation of the elderly and sick from the border towns with Russia. It is a familiar site for me after witnessing it myself here in Croatia in 1991, so I know how those people feel being driven from their homes and normal lives not knowing wheater they will return or not by a superior force intent on carrying out their orders by a lunatic dictator. Here in Croatia after so many years people are back in their homes, rebuilt and the villages, towns and cities are back to normal, Croatia has come back from the brink of destruction to become a stronger and better country, all because of the heart and will of the people. There is a huge question mark over wheater the U...
