Can We Regain Our Good Manners?
Since our president has been elected, we can feel the enmity and sometimes the blindness of our brothers and sisters. It is very sad to see how our country became and the lies spread in all the media and conversations. I feel that it is time to allow everyone to express himself without being attacked or criticized by his friends, colleagues and sometimes family members. The truth and the compassion are what made America the best country on earth. It is interesting to recall how our parents reacted in order to keep their life and their relationships peaceful. They always answered with sayings or with proverbs. They tried to keep their dialog in a respectful manner. If we succeed to do the same we will enhance our life and the life of our colleagues and of course, of our readers.
We have to understand that every word has its power, but there are multiple ways to interpret it. By writing nice pieces, honestly, we can only gain our respect and let the truth pave its way to the heart of human beings. It is a grace that everyone can write openly without fear or restrain, and this website is giving us the advantage of expressing our views freely. Only this way can we one day become the bridge between people and languages, without being in any political circle or organization.
Those who survive these times will see the reality, which now seems obscured by bad faith instigators and false teachers. No one can pretend holding the truth and the right ways towards the progress and for the wellbeing of our people. Only together can we succeed to enlighten the ways and the paths of our brothers. We have to keep in mind that millions of our people have no jobs and their existence is in danger. We have no right to be indifferent to their situations. We have to unite in this common goal to help peacefully those in need.
With the advent of TV manners went out the window, because TV demanded our 100% visual and auditive attention. Then, here comes the buying pressure of beautiful things that we didn't needed but that our neighbor just got, and cars, and clothes, and...we stopped being polite and started to think just about me me me me.
Then, to make things worse, Dynasty, Falcon Crest, The Rich and Famous etc etc, came to raise the bar even higher!
