No hate

I guess that the title is 'catching'  you, and that you all agree with it.  No hate!

We not want hate in our life. But so far the theory. How much hate is there actually in your life?

Do you hate your work, your boss, the neighbours, taxes, government? Or maybe you hate your food, or the noise in the street?
Or do you hate yourself?

There are people who even hate people, because they are different, from different countries, that ultimate hate is called racism and I do not allow that in my life, not in real and not digital.

In my opinion there are two reasons to hate others. The first one is because you have no idea about the situation of the other.  The second reason, what is close connected with the first one, is a frustration, because the others are in a position that you want to be in.  

Hate is aweful. It makes you angry, it makes you blind and it brings solutions further away. Here the point why some 'world leaders'  are promoting and encouraging hate against others.  If you hate someone, and fight against him, you not need to solve your own problems. Then it is not you first, but it is first eleminating the other. And who is not with me, is against me (and needs to be eleminated)

Do we really want to hate others?  
No?
Then, why do not stop it?
Why not listen to what others have to say? And if you disagree, say it?

I will always shout out against discrimination and I tell you why. 

Why not listen to the arguements of the other?  Why not try to understand why people are acting like they do?  Not in violence, but with respectful listening and asking?

It is up to you.
Hate, or try to understand. There is no way in between. When you disagree, that is fine as well. As long as you respect the opnion of the other.
Discrimination, Nazism, is not respectful. We not need that in our lives.  Don't accept that others put oil on the fire and make you hate.  Hate is never the answer. Love is. Love understands. Love matters. Just like coffee

speak out

Until now I had some 'goodwill' for people who voted Trump, and are still in my 'friends list'.

I saw all their 'likes' at pro Trump posts in the past, and in wordfights on this subject, that I had they 'liked' against me. Freedom to do so, and if I care for people, I not need to delete them for a different opinion.

Now that even loyal Americans are in shock, and protesting, I see NO likes at all, when people shout out against racism and nazism.

What is this telling me about those persons?

And what should I do with them, now they sneakily and secretly show their support for racism?

Racism and Nazism (and a few things more) are an absolutely no go! Null tolerance for that.

So, should I 'help' the US Dictator and encourage a bigger hole between the two camps?

I refuse to use hate. I will talk. I will support EVERY resistance against discrimination, no matter in what country, no matter with who.

So, my silent friends, speak out. Tell me why you are supporting this moron, now he makes more and more clear what a monster he really is. Speak out. Show more guts then him, and discuss about it. Can you? Can you really? Then do it!

Relax about real eggs

Here in Gewrmany, and appearantly in more countries then we knew, there is a new food poisoning scandal.

There has been added toxical stuff to the chicken food, and that came into the eggs. Who exactly is to blame, there about are the big ones still fighting.

For us, as consumers, it means that we listen and look to the news with a guarantee to see some news about the eggs.  Some supermarkets do not sell them at all anymore, others just limited. And the hype came to people as well, as it used to be.

We don't want poisoned eggs, are the things that the press tells us to yell.  And of courrse we not need to poison ourselves, but hey.... this is happening for months already, and no one noticed it so far. Still, the experts tell there is no reason for alarm.  I think that there are still more things that poison us then the eggs, but ... let's keep with them :)

So, people not eating eggs anymore.  When I ook around, I see many people eating cake with their coffee. It not seems to be so that people all the sudden eat less of that baked stuff, what is created with .... eggsacly :)

And I should not wonder if there are people wiho discuss badly about eggs, while eating their cakes. :)

Let's just breath, relex (releggs?) and face the eality.  Things can taste wonderful, and then all the sudden, when you know what is in it, you can not eat it anymore?  

Sigh... don't let the media upset you.  There are other things that are more to worry about. Such as a president who allows white supremacy.   Damn!  Talking about rotten eggs!!!

Shame on you!

A few words from me about the terror act in Charlottesville, America, where a march for 'white supremacy'  escalated and caused some deadly victims.

I know some people might say, mind your own business, but considering this is a deed against humanity, I think it is my business.

It is horrible, that a president does not dare to say clear on what side he stands in this.
This horrible man allows crime marches of Ku Klux Clan and nazism, and even tries to de-ascalate it with saying that both parties were wrong.

A man with guts should be clear and tell that there is no place in this world for discrimination, hate speech and (white) supremacy
This horrible leader does not want to loose the support of some people in his administration, who are happy with this kind of escalations.  This horrible leader makes enormous uproar when a muslim attacks in a country, far away, but when some extremists with loads of violence terrorise a town in his own country, he simply sais, bad boys,  you should not have done it, and returns to his golf court (or his word war with a mental disturbed leader in N.Korea).

And  what do the people around this president say?  They do not dare to say much, because they know that, when they act against this narcistic racistic leader, that the days of the party  to rule are over. Appearantly that is what not might happen, and the price that the republicans are willng to pay for it is high. So high that it causes a really thread for world peace.   

Someone needs to stop this president. And more then that, someone needs to stop those movements. It is a signal, that they not hide themselves, and openly manifistate themselves.  They know that they are tolerated by the incampable, orange leader, who is more intrested in a bit more money for his imperium then for human.

No one can say that they do not know what is going to happen. No one needs to say that it is not possible to change the things. It is.  And it needs not much, to say, we are not going to take it.

No to racism
No to nazism
Please  clear this world from the worst thing that ever happened after Hitler. 

Things I do not understand

There are many things I do not understand

And I do not talk, this time, about loosing my hearing, or language problems.
It is not the first time, and, it is not the last time, and as long as no one can give me a good answer, I keep on asking those questions.

When I read posts, that start with 'I risk with writing this that I loose friends', foloowed by a supporting writing for  a very questionable person, then I can understand why he writes so.  By adding the fear of loosing friends, you automatically give some of them a guilty feeling, about leaving because you not agree with the statements following. If this 'emotional pressure'  is on purpose, or not, I do not know. When the reactions on that statement are, friends will remain friends, 'we'  support the questionable statement, as in a friendship is more important then justice for all.
Maybe I see it wrong!

Maybe I see it wrong when someone that I know very good, is posting a 'text photo'  about refugees, who ask the first day for a shelter, the second day for a house, the third day for a washing machiine,  that I do not like that?
The more when that person most likely never has taken effort to read, or talk about the subject at all.
The parrot, sitting at the couch, talking the things that others put in his mouth, or, in this case, spread the things that were in his messenger, without even thinking what he is doing.

I might be wrong to react fanatical at this, but it is hard to do not so.  I still like that person, but I dislike this kind of ideas, and it frustrates me to see someone who has this kind of a disgusting view at others without that he even tries to investigate if the statements he spreads are correct or not.

Yes, it is a 'whoops, I did it again'  moment.  I will always make the mistake to react on this kind of situations, and risk that people get disappointed in what I write (oooo Hans, see what you do, read back the first lines of the blog.....), but I have to do it.

And if I hurt you with it, I challenge you to talk with me, and find out if we can discuss until we agree again with eachother.

I think I am expecting too much, in this, from certain people, but I won't give up trying. Why? Beccause I do care.  And that is one of the few questions on what I know the answer..

As Freddie sings .. why can't we give love one more chance?-

Random thoughts, chapter .1.273.475

I think everyone should know what (s)he posts at internet, in the social media. And that is exactly what is happening. Good!

But, 

when people are so excited about their hoolidays, that they need to post photos about the preparations, the turning back, and of course many, many photos about their trip?  Or posting about 200 or more photos about a concert you went to?
It reminds me about an uncle that came to us, and we were always a bit afraid about the suitcase he carreid. If the black one was with him, it meant that we could watch dias/light photos for an evening. Uncle here, uncle there, uncle with flowers, flowers without uncle, unclee without flowers.. Help....

Luckily the computer has a scroll function, you can choose the own speed to get thrugh the information. And you not need to see it as well.  Who knows me a bit, knows that, when you act that way, that you can get silly reactions, in what I indirectly say, it is enough.  But when I really not want to see it, I just can skip it and keep my mouth (or fingers) shut.  Why should I take away the fun from the people who are so enthisastic?  Other then with Uncle G, we not need to see it.  And we not need to react as well.

Why are some people, who are married, posting 'word wisdoms'  on what is told how much they regret to be married?  Should that be fun, or is there another  reason behind it?   Definitely I have my thoughts when I see similar postings coming from both partners. 

Is it so that the social media are becoming the legal way of commuicate with each other?  So that you can sit together at the couch and then use Messengers to tell the other to f.. off?  (or the other way around, but that is rarely seen -until now-).

Shouldn't we use the social media as how it is meant?  It tells Social... not anti social.. 

 Respect each other. Make fun, and if a joke is not done, then tell the other about it. And if you want to say your partner somethng..  remember that it is always possible to speak with each other. Don't be scared to argue.  Love can handle that and, at the end (as my Auntie always said, there is a way to make it all good again. And that is not from the last 20 years, it works aas long as people live  :) 

Gone too soon

And another one is gone too soon

There are so many people, and not only in the music scene, that go too soon!

Now Chester Bennington ended his life, a lot of people are in shock (again) and the records will sell better then ever.  

Why?

Why do peeple go too soon?
Is it a (mind) illness, that they can not stop, that ends their life before it is time?
Is it the person itself, who decides that it is time, and therefore for him(her)self the right moment, but for the rest of the people around them it still is way too soon?

I guess we never know exactly why people decide to end their life.  I do not think it is a free will, I am convinced that it is, for them, the only way that they see to get out of their life.

My first reaction is anger, because how does anyone dare to do this, to his beloved, to his family, to his friends?  There are plenty of ways that you can get help, so WHY do you do this to all the people around you?
When I calm down, I realize that the decission to end life too soon, is not an easy one.  What are the last things you think, the last things you do (aparrt from preparing your departure)?  

I can not decide for others, what is the best solution for their problems. I think that we all might have moments, on what we see no other solution then going ... too soon.  But most of us do not go too soon.  They do not have the guts to  go too soon. Or they do care too much, to let go.  When you want to go, and you can not go... 

Good, that are just a few reflections.  Every time I read a message, that one stepped out of this life, too soon, the memories come up, to people  that I know that did take such steps before. And I feel sad, because I know that there will be others that will follow. Too soon.

Now it is hes the singer of Linkin Park, and all the sudden he has a name that we won't forget.
Is he gone too soon?  Or does he live forever, in our hearts?  Maybe he does, for a while. And then he becomes a name, a number, and we slowly add him in the row, with the many others, like Janis, Jimmi, Bon, Kurt..... and all the others, that I just forgot...  but who are gone too soon.
