Images you’re about to see from today, February 22, 2015:

~ Gathering of Ukrainians at St. Michael’s Cathedral Square

~ Mobile film stations were set up in the square by the Ukrainian Military Defense to show the Ukrainian people “evidence” of the current Russian aggression.

~ Children are laughing and smiling, climbing on tanks (seemingly unaware of the real horrors occurring in Donetsk, Debaltseve…)

~ Burnt out cars (bombed, shelled) from the war with Russia (and the Separatists) brought in from Donetsk, Debaltseve with Ukrainians (and their children) getting up close and peering into them.

~ Waving of Ukrainian flags (blue & yellow) and “a black and red flag, this one raised by pro-Ukraine protesters, belongs to the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA). The members were Ukrainian nationalists who fought against both sides in WW2 for an independent Ukraine – even resorting to collaborating with the German army as a tactical strategy to achieve nationalist goals. Some accuse them of murdering Jews and Poles, so in Russia this flag is regarded as fascist. (BBC News)

KIEV, UKRAINE: WE HAVE A RIGHT TO CHANGE COURSE

Published on by jacquelinemhadel5 Comments

“You have a right to experiment with your life. You will make mistakes. And they are right too. No, I think there was too rigid a pattern. You came out of an education and are supposed to know your vocation. Your vocation is fixed, and maybe ten years later you find you are not a teacher anymore or you’re not a painter anymore. It may happen. It has happened. I mean Gauguin decided at a certain point he wasn’t a banker anymore; he was a painter. And so he walked away from banking. I think we have a right to change course. But society is the one that keeps demanding that we fit in and not disturb things. They would like you to fit in right away so that things work now.” ― Anaïs Nin

KIEV, UKRAINE: OUR EGOISM

Published on by jacquelinemhadelLeave a comment

“What we can and should change is ourselves: our impatience, our egoism (including intellectual egoism), our sense of injury, our lack of love and forbearance. I regard every other attempt to change the world, even if it springs from the best intentions, as futile.” ― Hermann Hesse

KIEV, UKRAINE: A ROAD HEADING WHO KNOWS WHERE

Published on by jacquelinemhadel2 Comments

“She had just realized there were two things that prevent us from achieving our dreams: believing them to be impossible or seeing those dreams made possible by some sudden turn of the wheel of fortune, when you least expected it. For at that moment, all our fears suddenly surface: the fear of setting off along a road heading who knows where, the fear of a life full of new challenges, the fear of losing forever everything that is familiar.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym
