This man life story.

Dear readers, in this blog, we have written about D.I.W. building works. We have written and continue to write about social issues. Now, I am going to publish my own diary and what I see happening in the world, and when I do not have much to say, I will write posts from my life story.  

BEGINNING THIS MAN LIFE STORY OR JOURNEY 

Once I was a child, then I was a man like this photo above, later I became like this photo below and now I am even older than that. 


We all would like to be young and strong forever. You see, I was like that when I was young, but life is not like that, because life is a journey, just like The Human Life Cycle shown hereunder. 


You see, people are born, then they grow up and live their life the best way they can, every life has a story of its own that can be told, if we want to. Now, that is what I want to do, I want to tell you the story of my life. 


Welcome to our article, A man life story, or journey

Dear readers, the most important story that we can tell is the story of our own life, that starts when we are born and ends when we die. So, let me tell you my life story, because even a simple life story like mine can be interesting.  Anyhow, every one has a story to tell, and these links will prove that it is so.  

Everyone Has a Story to Tell - Goins, Writer ,

You are a storyteller, and you have a story worth telling. - Get Storied,

Now, I am going to write my own life story, the way that I have lived it, even if it is boring, and I hope that I can write my life story, in a way that my readers understand. Because today we live a different lifestyle, we can misunderstand the situation. 

Anyhow, to keep my life story in a chronological order. I plan to write my life story in two parts, one part is going to be about my young life, starting from when I was born, followed by my life in our family-farm in Southern Italy, and what I did in my native town of Genzano di Lucania, which is the town where I was born and and lived my young life. The second part is going to be about my life story in Australia, since I migrated to Australia in my early twenties, and I have lived in Australia ever since.

This second part of my life story will be dealing with lots of things, it will include several articles about building houses and other building. Since I ended up working in the building industry in Brisbane Australia; so, I will describe how different building things were done in those times when I came to Australia, how these same things have progressed and how I progressed and became a bricklayer, during the time that I have been working in Australia, and I have been working as a bricklayer most of my life; and when I was not bricklaying, I was doing other building work as well.  Anyhow, these things are the things that I want to write about in my life story.

------------------  

Planning to write my life story. 

Anyhow, this article is the beginning of my life story, and it will be several articles long. You see, I want to tell you my own life story; because I have reached a certain age that makes me an old man. So, I wonder what I can show my readers to make my life story interesting to read, because I am going to tell you my life story from the beginning just as it happened, with some happy and some not so happy happenings. 

Anyhow, even though in my life story I must say that I was strugglingI hope that my life story is interesting to hear, because the story that I am telling you has already happened, so, even if there are sad stories, they are old stories, so, they are not so sad anymore and they could be compared to today’s living to make the story more interesting; you see, this is what us old people do, we want to compare today’s way of life to the ways that we have lived our own life.

Therefore, dear readers, while you are reading my life story try to compare the ways of living of those days with the ways that we are living today, because this is one of the reasons why I am writing my life story; if you do that, it will make you feel better. You see, today when I see things done from the younger generation that do not agree with my own views, I want to tell them the ways that things were done when I was young, therefore, I would start by saying; when I was young these things were not done this way and keep telling them what we did then. I hope you see what I mean. But now, let me start telling you the story of my life.

-----------------------------------------------

Beginning the story of my life.   

Anyhow, I was born in 1938, before World War 2 started (1939- 1945), I was born and baptized in a Roman Catholic Church of Southern Italy like everybody else is, in the town of Genzano di Lucania, and this is how my life stared.

Now, my family had a small farm, we owned some farm land around the farm, but the land that we owned was not enough to earn a living, so, we would work the land of large land owners, who let us use their land for a price that had to be paid with an agreed amount of produce each year. 

Let me explain, when I was young approximately half of the town land, was owned by a few large landlords. These landlords would lease their land for a price, which would be a certain amount of what their land produced each year.

To understand the ownership of the land, is not easy. But I will try to explain the easiest way possible; you see, most times it is not the owners of the land that work as farmers; but are other poor people that to earn a living are working as farmers.

As this came about, we don’t know, but I believe that in the past the entire countryside would belong to the landlord that the rulers of the day gave the right to run that part of the country, so, even when I was young some of these way of living existed, the rich landowner that were able to secure the land in the past, now replaced the rulers or government landlords, or the master of that portion of the countryside, so, they would let us use their land for a price.

Anyhow, talking about the old ways, and about the landlords or the masters of the castles, it comes to my mind, that in Genzano di Lucania, there is this castle called, Monteserico, which has seen many wars of possession, to own the castle and the surrounding countryside, I could see this castle every day of my life, when I was in the farm. So, I have written this article, The Norman castle of Monteserico.

How things were run in those old times.  

Anyhow, to understand how things were in the farms, before and during World war 2, I need to tell you this; to earn a living in those days was much harder than today, not only for us farmers, who were then thought to be in a better position than the rest of the town community, because we were producing food and in war time food was hard to come by, we could always find something to eat from the fields.

So, the rest of the town were influenced by us farmers, if we were doing well the rest of the town would be doing well too; you see, in those times, the most important thing that people aimed for, was to be able to eat wholesome food every day, if you were able to do that, then you were doing well, there were no luxurious food or things to be had, accept a few times each year, like at Christmas.

Anyhow, let us compare the ways of life we had then; you see, there was not much money going around in those days, so, a lot of times we had to exchange produce or things to make ends meet. For example, we needed a blacksmith to sharpen the tools during the year to work the fields, so, we would pay the blacksmith with an agreed amount of wheat, since wheat was our main crop and most people needed wheat to make their own bread during the year.

You see, if you had wheat, you could take it to the mill to make flour and then make your own bread; therefore, by paying work done by wheat was convenient, as it was a two ways solution. It also was done like that because there was not much money around, even the farmers’ barbers used to be paid in wheat or some other produce from the farmers. Of course, there was money to do other general services, but all those services that would take a long time were done by these agreements, of so much work in exchange of so much produce. Sometimes even small things could be bought by exchanging some produce with some other things.

Now, I wonder how the younger generation would feel to live in the old days like I have described. And be a youth working in the farm from a very tender age as I did.

I am saying this because today when I look at the young people most of them walk about with a mobile talking to their friends, or listening to music, or doing whatever they can do with their mobile, then they think that life is hard for them.

Anyhow, the difference in lifestyle is so great, it is hard to believe that so many electronic devises have come out in the last fifty years, so, we are better off today; therefore, just to compare, we should ask ourselves, what the youths of today could have done in my place? I know we were struggling then, but we were happy just the same, and there were people that were worse off than I was. Anyhow, we must accept life as it is and be happy, that is the best way to behave. I think that I have said enough in this article, so, see you soon in my next article, my life my struggle.

Old man story part two, our human duty.

Dear readers, in this blog, we have written about D.I.Y. building works. We have written and are writing posts about social issues that can affect all of us. Today I am deciding how to continue, so, from now on, I am going to publish my own diary of what I see happening in the world, and when I do not have much to say, I am writing some article from my life story, like the one hereunder.  

Anyhow, you can also find this article at, http://oldman-lifeworks.blogspot.com

Of all the people that have ever existed in the world, our Lord Jesus Christ is the greatest of them all, he taught us many things and to do our duty as human beings. This can be seen in the commandment that apply to all humanity, love your lord God and thy neighbor as yourself. But let me write what I believe, the duty of any human being is.   

Welcome to part two of our article, An old man life story 

Which is the duty of any human being

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

Dear readers, this is part two of our original article, Here we will be talking about,  the duty of any man, or human being, which can be divided in two folds; one of this duty is an idealistic duty about what a man should do for the betterment of humanity; the other duty is how a human being or man should behave during his life, in order to be viewed and thought to be of good character and everything else, which enhances the quality of life itself; because these two things is what distinguishes us from the animals’ world, and also from those do no good humans that want to rip off the rest of the human society for themselves.

Having said that, now let us start to talk about, that idealistic duty that a man is supposed to do during his life, since we believe that it would be good for humanity, as the aim is to do something for the betterment of all humanity.

Therefore, let us start from the beginning of our lives, and use our own lives observations to decide what is the duty of any human being; we have reasons to believe that when a man (or woman) is born, they receive their gift of life from God and/or Mother Nature or whatever one believes there is that makes life possible on earth. Of course, all this is achieved through and from their parents, who are guided from their natural instinct to do what they have to do to bring on a new life, as we know this is the only way for life to reproduce itself and continue indefinitely.
Now, for life to evolve and become better, it is important that we all do our best, so, we should be careful what we do during our lives; therefore, this gift of life that we have received from God, Mother Nature or whatever we believe our lives come from, we have to be careful with it and we should endeavor to guard our own lives dearly, with all our inner will and physical strength, because our lives is a very special gift that we have received from God, if we believe in God, or from Mather Nature or whatever one believes in.

You see, there are reasons to believe that every one of us have our own ways of seeing this gift of life in different ways, but for those who believe in God have an extra special meaning, since God is the life giver of all existing life on earth. Therefore, the life duty of a man even in the eyes of God, is that a man must try to live his own life well, or at least as good as his parents have done before him, and if he can, he must try to improve the standard of life he has received. Now if there are any improvement that he has made during his life, they should be passed onto his children, so, the next coming generation that will come through him and from him will have a better standard of life that he has had during his life, since he has been able to improve that standard of life that he has received himself. So, let any good man come forward and say what improvements he can contribute to humanity.

Now that I have described what I think the life duty of any man should be, and of course believing every word that I have said, there is no way that I can avoid doing my duty for the improvement of future generations. Of course, by doing my duty as we have said, not only I have achieved something good for the community, therefore, I would feel that my life has been worthwhile living, because I have done something worthwhile during my life; otherwise, I would feel that life has passed me by and I have not done anything important or contributed anything at all for the improvement of the future generations. So, I believe that our life learning must be passed on for the betterment of all humanity. Now let me explain what I believe our other human duty is.

-------------------

The other human duty to society. 

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

We have written above an idealistic duty of any human being, but there is another duty that everybody should follow, and everybody must know what it is, because it is very simple; “do not do to others, what you would hate if anybody does it to you”. Anyhow, here we want to become more personal and talk about ourselves, as we live our lives now.

We human beings that pride ourselves to be at the top of all living being on earth, we should ask ourselves what is our duty during our lives, in order to do the right things and be proud of ourselves, because we have done what is right. We believe that on earth we are like gods’ and can do anything we like, so, we are able to dominate all other living species, but what about our own specie; are we doing the right thing to other fellow man one may ask?

The answer to that question is hard to explain because there are many wrong things that we still do in this world. You see, we would like to behave like gods’, but really to be like God, we need to behave like God, and do certain duties that is worth of being called a good and benevolent god; but that is a hard thing to do. Anyhow, we don’t claim to be gods, because we believe that there is a spiritual God that is very powerful and is the master of heaven and earth, so, we can never claim to be that powerful, at least we understand that; for this reason we give up the idea of being gods; but let us see what our duty would be, if we want to be at the top of every living thing and feel that we have done our duty as well.

We believe that for mankind to stay at the top of everything and work in a positive way, a man should do his duty willingly; we believe that a man has got to do what a man has got to do, because this would be his life duty, anything that is detrimental to the rest of humanity and the living species must be avoided.

You see, we have this inborn wish within us that we would like to be seen as great people, or at least better than the average man that is beside us, when we do our duty willingly; so, let us talk about and see what our duty is, if we want to be seen and counted as a good and honest man, from the rest of the world community.

As we have said at the beginning, the duty of any man is two folds; the first duty is that a man has got to live his life honestly; by this we mean that he has got to try to live his life in a way that he is able to earn his own living, he should work at whatever work he is able to do during his life, and he should not try to steal anybody money or belongings, he should pay his bills and his rent in time and be always punctual with his payment and his work duty. All these things might seem hard to achieve; but what we have said is easy to achieve if you live a normal life and try to do it honestly.

This is our first duty to our community. The other idealistic duty that any of us can be called to fulfill, we have talked about at the beginning of this article. So, now let us go back to explain why our life learning should be passed on.

 

Our life learning should be passed on to future generations. 

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

As we have said at the beginning of this article, our duty as human beings are that we must pass on what we have learned from life, for the betterment of future generations. So, I must start thinking what I can do to contribute to it; in order to achieve our goal and do our own duty and contribute our share, so that, we can improve what we have received from life and what we have learned during our own life, I believe that we need to make a record of our lives experience, and then, we must try to see which way they can be used better.

In my case I believe that the best way to achieve that, is that I can write my own life story, in my life story, I am going to say what the previous generation have taught me, and then, what I have learned myself during my life, and thus, by writing my life story I am passing on my knowledge for the benefit of future generations. You see, this can be a reason for writing an old man life story, and publish it in Hub Pages, I need also to write most of my life observation down and any other life experiences, in such a way that they can be understood and make sense to whosoever reads them.

In my life story, I know that some of my life happenings and observation, may feel strange, so, I am warning my readers not to give too much weight to those observation when they come across and read them, if they don’t agree with them or they don’t understand them fully; you see, every one of us is different, so, we perceive things in a different way.

Anyhow, if I must do my duty, to improve what I have received from life, I am going to tell you my own life experiences, even if they are going to be boring and seem strange at times, as I am sure that they are going to seem strange every now and then, so much so that one would think that they may be like a metamorphose. But because a man has got to do what a man has got to do, I am doing it anyhow; so, may God help me achieve that!

Anyhow, this article is becoming too long, therefore, I will continue to tell my life story in my next article called, A man life story,  because I need to give every article a new name. See you soon in my next article of my life story.

An old man life story, part one.

Dear readers, in this blog, we have written about D.I.Y. building works. We have written and are writing posts about social issues that can affect all of us.

In the old times our grandma used to tell us children stories, they did not read the story from a book as it is done these days; but they new by heart a few stories that were very handy to tell the children to keep them interested and quiet.

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

Welcome you to my article,  An old man life story.  

Dear readers, now let me explain the change of direction of this blog. You see, we have written about D.I.Y. building works, and we have written about Australian social issues, we will continue to do that, but today to keep this blog going, I am going to publish some articles from my life story, at the same time I am going to continue to write my own diary of things that are happening in the world. So, let me start with part one of my article, an old man life story. 

------------------------  


This old man in the photo could have been me, because I have done paving work and other building works during my life. Anyhow, today I am writing this blog and I have reached a stage, where I have to decide, what else I want to write in my blog, as I am going to explain hereunder.  

------------------------- 

Anyhow, this original article in Hub Pages reads like this: This article could have been two articles, because this is: An old man life story; but it also includes the duty of any man. Now let me tell you, An old man life story.

So, let me tell you a story and transport you to another place and to another time, at the time when I was a young kid and my mother or my grandma, in the evening would tell me a story just to keep me happy and go to bed and sleep.

Oh my god! What did I say? Tell you fairy tales that the elders of my time were telling me when I was a young kid; no, sorry my dear readers I have made a mistake and I apologize, because you see today I don’t remember much about those stories that the elders of my time were telling me, even though those stories were interesting to us kids then; here I need to tell you that in those times mothers and grandmothers had always a story to tell the kids, it was the only way to keep us kids quiet, because there was no TV and most time not even a radio for miles, the only news in those times were in the newspapers, if one could borrow it from somebody that could afford to buy it, the rest of the news were the local news that the people of the town would tell each other, so that they would know what was happening around them, so, people would pass them around by word of mouth.

Anyhow, the stories that these old ladies were telling us, were as good as any other story, and if the famous Brothers Grimm had known them they would have written them in their stories book. The Annotated Brothers Grimm : Jacob Grimm, Wilhelm Grimm

Here I want to point out that a lot of things have changed since I was a kid, but I still remember things that I would like to tell you, so, let me go on. Now that I happen to be talking about the mothers and grandmothers of those times, I want to add that they worked hard to keep kids quiet in those times, it was the only way, it was a fact of life. Here I want to add something else that today does not happen anymore in the western world, I am saying the western world because what these old ladies were doing then might still be done in backward countries today one can never know; I can imagine that there might still be a few places where progress as not taken place, and therefore, people are still using those skills that their forbears have used for centuries or even thousands of years.

Anyhow, let me describe to you what these old ladies did to put a child to sleep, they would take the child in their arms sit on a sturdy chair and sing a lullaby while they were rocking the chair until the child would go to sleep, or do the same thing by putting the child in a rocking cradle and rock the cradle and sing a lullaby, those times were a lot harder than today for young mothers as you can see for yourself, not only they had to look after the child, but they had also wash everything by hand as there were no washing machine, or any throw away paper devises that would keep the child clean, so, they had to rely or their skills that they had picked up from their elders and work hard to keep things going properly.

Today is a lot easier for young mothers, because of the washing machine and other things that make life less stressful, even singing lullaby is gone out of fashion, perhaps it is because there is so much music, songs and everything else around us, so, singing lullaby is out of fashion; for this reason you cannot hear any mother singing their lullaby to their children, I guess it is the sign of the time, people are not born singers, those young mothers were singing then because they had to, it was their job to keep their children quiet even if their singing was out of tune as long as their child was satisfied. You see, children are attention seeker, and they were happy, if they knew that there was somebody looking after them, and to hear their mother singing to them and rocking them would satisfy them and fall asleep. Anyhow, this is how it was done in the old days. 


In the old times our grandma used to tell us children stories, they did not read the story from a book as it is done these days; but they new by heart a few stories that were very handy to tell the children to keep them interested and quiet.

-------------------------------------------

 Beginning of my life stories

Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.

Anyhow, I was saying that the old ladies were telling us stories when we were kids; I apologize for not being able to tell you any of those stories that my mother and my grandmother were telling me, they were good stories for us kids, since we kids would hear them many times and still we were interested in them, perhaps we were waiting for the heroes of the stories to do what they had to do to have their ways; but today I have forgotten most of these stories, therefore, I cannot tell you any of them. Anyhow, this is not the reason why I am writing this article; because what I want to tell you here, is the story of my life. I know that now you are thinking, what is wrong with this guy, why he wants to tell us the story of his life? Well it is because I cannot tell you a fairy tale anymore, since today people don’t believe anymore in fairies or fairy tales, and really, I don’t remember most of the tales that I have been told when I was young; therefore, I am going to tell you the story of my life, because that is the only story that I know better than anybody else.

Now that I have decided to tell you my whole life story, I am going to tell you the story of to my life, in order to compare the ways of living between these days and the old time ways; since I believe that to tell a story and make sense to the listener or readers, there must be a purpose for it, so, if we try to compare this old man life story to today ways of living, then my story becomes more interesting for everybody.

Having said that, now I wonder what it would be like, if one could go back in time like in time travel fictions, how nowadays ways of living would have affected the older generations. You see, in the old days, time seemed to stand still and very little changes would happen, and if anything did happen it would happen slowly, except when there were wars or other violent happenings, like earthquake or diseases that could kill lots of people around; whereas today everything changes very fast even when there are no wars, earthquake or disease; therefore, what is new today, in a few days may be said to be old. I hope you see what I mean.

Secondly, I am going to tell you, why I feel that I must write this story, and why I believe I must write it. You see, I feel that every human being has a story to tell, and anyone of us can tell our own story, if we attach enough importance to the story that we want to tell. So, I feel that, if I tell you my life story, not only I become satisfied that I have written my own life story, but I would also feel that I am doing humanity a good service, because something can be learned from my life story. I believe that it is the life duty of any man to try to improve anything if one can, so, let me explain the way I feel about what could or would be the duty of any man. 

Anyhow, I believe that this blog will become too long, so, I will write the duty of any human being, in my next blog. To see more click on this link, An old man life story 

See you soon.

World News and My Views, May 2021.

Dear readers, in this blog, we have written about D.I.Y. building works. We are writing posts about social issues that can affect all of us. We will start with Australian social issues; then we will follow with what is happening these days, and link everything together. So, in this blog let us talk about, World news and my views, May 2021.  

Anyhow, you can also find this article at, http://oldman-lifeworks.blogspot.com

My other sites; http://frankmenchise.com,http://diybrickwork.com,http://manneedsgod.co.uk  

You can see more at this addresses, DIY brickwork  and,  http://diybrickwork.com,  

To see more visit links, World News and My Views, May 2021. 


In this article we are talking about the year 2021 Australian budget, Oprah Winfrey interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, pope Francis visit to Iraq, the new Italian government, compare the corona virus progress and other things. 

----------------------------------- 

Welcome to our article, World News and My Views, May 2021.

Dear readers, we are continuing to write our diary, I know that it would be better if I write one each month, so that I can have a continuous record, but sometimes is not possible, so, there are things that will be left unsaid, because if I do not write them, I may not remember them.

Anyhow, this is the month of May 2021, and in Australia is when the federal budget is published, so, everybody is waiting to see, what is in for me, but there is not much to say. 

The Australian budget

Tuesday the 11th of May 2021 was Australia budget day, the budget this year is a spending budget for the government, so, they are spending a lot of money otherwise the economy will run down. I believe that is good news, at least it seems to be good, even if the budget has a big deficit.

Anyhow, there was nothing new, things are just the same as before, perhaps that is the only way possible this year. So, we must wait for next year or the year after that for real new policies in favor or against, our own personal expectations. 

This is how it was reported on the Internet, (and I quote)

The Australian taxpayer (eventually) The 2021 Budget delivered extremely positive news – Australia escaped the brunt of COVID far better than the economists predicted – but we are still in debt. In 2021-22, the underlying cash balance is expected to be a deficit of $106.6 billion. (End of quote)

Anyhow, I have waited a couple of weeks to see if anybody had things to say about the budget, but people keep quiet and do not say much, this is unusual because people always say things about the budget. I believe it is the sign of the times, unusual times unusual reaction of the people. 

------------------

Now, let us compare what we wrote in our last article. 

-One: We talked about the interview of Oprah Winfrey, with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry that is upsetting the royal family in England. At the beginning it was upsetting, and a lot of people thought that something could happen, however it has calmed down a fair bit, so, as time goes by it soon will be just something that happened.

-Two: The good news in the month of March 2021 is pope Francis visit to Iraq, now, we can say that this is good news, since the pope visit can bring good result in the future; you see, when the religious leaders of different religions get together, it has the potential to change the views of their followers. Will the pope succeed in what he wants to do? We just must wait and see, if what he is doing will continue and one day religions can amalgamate. 

 -Three: after a while, the Italian have another government, and the prime minister is Mario Draghi, there will be other changes, with Mario Draghi as prime minister, they can look at how to finance whatever needs to be financed in Italy, to get Italy working again, and to control the corona virus.

Today apart what we have said above, the world problems continue to be mostly as they were two months ago, the corona virus pandemic continues with variant.  

Now, let us see, what is changed about the corona virus pandemic.

Anyhow, what we can tell you today 29th of May 2021 is that the COVID19 continues;

In the world there are and have been, over 169,000,000 confirmed case positive, and 3,513,000 deaths.

In the USA has gone up to 33,400,000 positive and 599,000 deaths.

Brazil 16,000,000 positive and 450,000 deaths.

India 27,000,000 positive 332,000 deaths.

UK 4,440,000 positive 127,000 deaths.

Italy 4,200,000 positive, 125,000 deaths.

Again, here looks like that Italy has been hit hard from this virus, and every time I look at the Italian news there are more people sick. I hope that it will improve soon, since they have started vaccinating everywhere.

This pandemic has created many problems, and even though the vaccine has been made and is being used, it will take a long time for things to go back to normal; it also seems that there might be a problem with the vaccine, so, some people may refuse to be vaccinated.

Now, let us talk about the Australian budget, the world political scene and America withdrawal from Afghanistan, and the war in Israel.  

----------------------------------

Looking at the world political scene.  

Italy has a new government, and Mario Draghi is the prime minister. Things have not changed much in Italy with this new prime minister, since he does the same things that Giuseppe Conte did, but people do not say much, because they want to wait and see first. The only thing I can say is that they are more organized with the vaccine injections. 

What America, President Joe Biden is doing okay. He said that he would vaccinate a lot of people quickly, and he got more people vaccinated than he promised in his first 100 days in office; however, he seems a bit slower than President Trump on other things. Today he wants to withdraw all American soldiers from Afghanistan, which sounds great, but there seems to be a problem in doing that, because he has no policy how to withdraw his solders and still protect those people that helped the American when they were there. This can be mostly interpreters and their families, that will be left in danger of being killed from the Taliban’s. I believe that before the solders leave, it would be good if they can take with them to America those people that have helped them. Anyhow, the Americans will withdraw by September 11th, so, there is still time to organize that. Anyhow I hope they do.  

Australia seems to have upset the Chinese government, and there is some tension, about dealing with them, they may not want to buy Australian product or supply of minerals and other stuff.   

Myanmar problems, there has been a lot of tension about this country, but nobody seems able to do anything to help the elected government, so, they are by themselves, and we must wait and see. Anyhow, the Military government has issued this statement. 

 Aung San Suu Kyi will appear in court within days, military says.

The deposed leader is healthy at home and will appear in court soon, Myanmar’s military leader General Min Aung Hlaing says.

There is a war again in Palestine.

It seems to me that the Israelite Jews and the Palestinian Arabs have been at war on and off since the beginning of human history. They are virtually two races that have lived in Palestine on and off since written history has begun.

In the Bible it starts with Abraham leaving his native land to go where Yahweh said to him to go, after that there are many wars, in one of these wars Abraham wins and gives a part of his gains to the high priest of God most high. During Abraham life, at one stage he goes to Egypt with his wife Sara, here Yahweh helps him again and he returns home a rich man.

Anyhow, the Jews at one stage again went to Egypt, they became slave of the Pharaoh of Egypt, later they freed themselves with the help of their God Yahweh and Moses, and they returned to the promised land. To regain possession of the promised land they fought many wars and killed many people. There are many other wars and other things that has forced the Israelite to come and go to their native land, or promised land, if you want to call it so.

Now, what we want to point out here is that both these people are native of this land, so, they must learn one day to live together, after all the entire world is going global, and we all are going to learn to accept other people of different race and creed.

My personal view here, is that the Arab must accept the Israelite because that is their native land, even is now and then they have left it and gone somewhere else. Today they will not do that because of what has happened to them in the past, so, they will stay there and fight, because that is the only way for their race to survive. If the Arab understand that, then it could be a lot easier for them to accept.

Now, is seems to me, the Israelite need to have this land for their country, this is the only land that they can call home. For the Arab is not easy to accept that, but it is the only way available. Anyhow, today the Gaza Strip is a small country and not well organized as Israel is, so, why make war if they cannot win, it would be better for them to come to some agreement and stop fighting. But this remains to be seen.

Anyhow, after 11 days of fighting and 239 deaths on Gaza strip, and 12 deaths on Israel side they have agreed to stop fighting, and we must wait and see what happens next.

Anyhow, some people think that Israel this time might have gone too far, so they want to investigate what has happened.

Anyhow this article is becoming too long, to see things in more details click on this link, World News and My Views, May 2021. See you in our next article that we are going to write during June.
