Individuals

Why have I chosen this topic to write about, well this good old Earth on which we live is full of individuals or would you prefer people. Every country in the world is full of different people all with their own individual language, colour and religion, it's a difficult consept to understand how we are all so different. Did God want the Earth to be like this or did we just evolve over centuries to the stage we're at now. We've got good and bad, honest and dishonest and people who are just plain evil,would it be better if we were all the same I myself don't think so. We all go on holidays to a different country at least once in our lives, maybe for the climate, food, language or just because we want to experience a different culture for ourselves and to see in real life how they live,I've been all over and never cease to be amazed how different we all are, but as long as you've got a phrase book you'll get along just fine no matter what country you visit, most places we visit the people who live in those countries are mainly very hospitable to visitors as of course it's a way of making a living and they learn a little about us which maybe will be beneficial to them in the future as more and more people visit their country mainly because word of mouth, talking to our friends about how great our holiday was,so the next time we go on holiday we chose the same place or a different country, that's what makes us individual, the search for knowledge like history, recipes, religion and basically something which is a change from our lives in what ever country we're from. It doesn't matter if they are different from us in colour, they are still individuals and we have to appreciate and respect that after all we are just passing through after a couple of weeks in that country. When I've been to different countries I don't try to find a place that serves the food that I'm used to or speak the same language that I do I always try to act like a local and not a tourist,to get a real picture of how those people live and survive and make themselves individuals. They are exactly the same as us apart from the obvious and that’s why we visit these countries to see what makes them different and I for one wouldn't have it any other way. Individuality is special and should never change, what would the world be like if we all spoke the same language, ate the same food, had the same religion and history then really we therefore wouldn't be individual we would all be the same and that would be boring. Tell me what you think if you know how to comment as I would love to hear from you and of course share if you enjoyed reading my blog write about something else tomorrow. Thank you.

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...
