The other foot

I bet that the president of Ukraine is now extatic when the shoe is on the other foot and the idiot in the Kremlin is getting a right good kicking. It's been so long since the people of Ukraine had something to be happy about and not feel miserable every day. They may be still losing their homeland little by little every day but I now think that perhaps the tide is turning. The incursion into the russian motherland which is the first time since WW11 is an early Christmas present after all the suffering that they have endured physically, mentally and the bodies of their loved ones coming home from the front in boxes. Now it's the turn of the russian people to be upset and experience what the ordinary people of Ukraine have for so long. The Ukrainians have gone on the rampage and are taking russian soil not inch by inch but mile by mile, now there's a sense of jubilation among the people of Ukraine and the mood of the ordinary people of Russia has turned against the puppet master in the madhouse and you can see by his face he isn't a happy bear. The Russian people deserve to feel the pain that was started years ago by their so-called dictator when he and all the force of the Russian army laid seige on Ukraine, illegally I may add but the madman didn't care he wanted Ukraine and was determined to get it no matter how many lives it took to do so well Mr.Putin now the shoe is on the other foot so how do you feel, still willing to advance or do you now have to try and reclaim what you have lost and keep losing. Personally I hope that the Ukrainians have the will and the manpower to continue the good fight even if in the end if there is an end they will have something to bargain with if peace talks actually start, I hope that they continue the push and as long as they are resupplied they can and will do so. Good on you Ukraine, keep up the good fight and perhaps the people of Russia will turn against the Kremlin and say enough is enough, stop this injust war and let everyone return home to their loved ones. Well that's all from me today apart from the fact that it's again 25 and set to rise to 39 degrees as it was yesterday, no cars or lorries on the road and even the birds weren't singing.

Purpose

Do we all have a purpose in life or are we just born to go down which ever path life takes us? The reason this is the topic today is that as I look around and at the world and try to annalize it but I can't find an answer. Throughout history people have existed for a purpose good or bad, who determines what their purpose to exist is, some say it's God's will, but what does that mean? Did Hitler for instance exist just for the purpose of starting WW11 and the persecution of the Jews, was Putin born for the sole purpose to exist and maybe start WW111, who actually knows, I for one don't know but it starts me thinking about what was I born for, what is my purpose in life, why am I still existing, is there a purpose? Is there anybody out there that thinks the same way as me because it really makes my head hurt thinking about it, after all that I've done wrong in my life was it my purpose to come to Croatia and risk everything just for an ideal or is that what I exist fo...

Third installment

Day in, day out, it was the same routine, sleep, guard, fire off a few rounds in the general direction of the enemy, there was not much else to do, the main thing was to stay alive by keeping inside every time mortars or artillery came flying in to the village. The only time that there was a lot of activitie was when we were buzzed by planes, everybody would rush outside, Ernie would jump on the transporter and fire the machine gun, I used to run to the machine gun that was mounted on a tripod at the end of the street and also fire at the plane, everybody else would be outside firing their ak47s, there was not much chance of hitting it or bringing it down but it took only one lucky shot and that would give everyone hope. After the plane had gone out of sight that the transporter was Ernies because he had shot at the enemy leaving the damaged transporter with a sniper rifle, so Geordi the commander in charge of the defense of Osijek had given it to Ernie, I also found out that he worked...

Seventh installment, sorry it's a bit late but its hard to write what I wrote and remember.

The next day it was awfully quiet, the calm before the storm perhaps, nothing much for breakfast so we decided to try and lay the land line. So off we went house to house laying the wire behind us and then the mortars started again so we hit the ground, lying down was the safest if caught outside, there were pieces of shrapnel hitting the wall near to us and it was not a very safe place to be so we decided to make a run for it, that was the quickest I had ran in a long time, it is amazing how fast your legs move when you're life is at risk, "that was a nice little bit of exercise" Eric said laughing, "yes but it would have been better if we weren't dodging pieces of metal" I replied also laughing.  Everyone was there apart from those on guard duty and during the night it had changed from two to three, so I sat down on the bar stool and Eric went behind the counter looking for something to eat and all of a sudden bang and I fell off the stool, they all came t...
