Watching rerun n reading old books

why doesnt the govt allow bookshops to reopen during the covid lockdown.im running out of new books to read and at time when mental health is important,books are a form of escape from reality of doom n gloom.they allow food for body but no nourishment for the mind when mind body health is holistic n interlinked.book excess,popular n borders are all closed so im rereading old novels from my library.old is gold.

memories of good times

Racial n hate speech

with rise in antiAsian hate attacks n racial abuse,its not safe to teavel and be a tourist in some nations.tourists need to feel safe and not kicked,abused verbally or robbed.so for now after travel resumes,i will stick to Far East,indian sub continent,central Asia,Jordan,turkey,morocco to travel to.

Dualistic thinking vs symbiotic thinking

the biggest model of liberal democracy has leaders who dont agree to disagree as they think their model is superior over others.this reduces complex issues to a simplistic relativist world view of good pitched against evil.in practice,there are both strengths and weaknesses in different models of governance depending on the culture,history n social context.in a near homogenous society,the top down governance works when there is trust in authority working for interest of masses and masses faith in getting their fair share of prosperity in life.but it would be hard to work in a diverse,plural society with different sub cultures,values n historical context.thats when representation from multi party system is needed to get diverse views across.so it is not comducive to multilateral cooperation when one nation labels others as rogue nations or leaders of other nations as evil perpetrator with no soul.unless their own nations are perfect models of goodness with no harm n suffering caused to others,who are they to decide who is good or evil? its the saviour syndrome to see the world in dualistic terms of we vs them,the good vs the evil.in reality,good and evil coexist in the same polity and it depends on whether circumstances brings forth the good or evil response.in trying to do"good",one nation can bring harm and suffering to other nations and cause widespread destruction and loss of lives of innocent civilians.so what good will it do?or does the end justify the means.the world view that looks at mutual benefit is far better as its symbiotic.your strenth complements my weakness but together we bring synergy to the relationship as the whole is stronger than the different parts that constitute it.

Domestic violence

france has a high case of femicide.im horrified and strongly condemn the states inaction to protect women from domestic violence.the case of valerie bacot who was raped at 12 years old by stepfather ,made pregnant 4 times n prostituted by him to other men makes me sick.where the heck is police protection who take domestic violence lightly as a family dispute when this women lodged police reports and NOTHING was done to rescue her.in the end she killed him under extreme provocation as she feared he might do the same to their teenage daughter.this man is a MONSTER who raped his own 12 year old sister and abused his exwife. this is outrageous that he be allowed to continue perpetuating his SICK acts and a travesty of justice that he is not charged and locked up behind bars for being a perverted endangerment to females.in fact he should be physically castrated.a bullet to the head is too kind to the monster.thought the sick father who had incest with his own daughter n fathered her children was vile and he imprisoned her for years in a secret basement at home,this case beats it.Justice is truly appallingly missing here.where are the human rights defenders.It is happening in Europe,the leading forefront of liberal democracy where respect and tolerance is touted.im outraged and indignant at inhumane treatment of females as sex slaves in a so called progressive nation.where black lives matter show failure of state to protect lives,,high femicide and sexual slavery shows failure of state to protect women from violence.its in attitude of patriarchical society to regard women as submissive to the will of men that this violence originates.the culture has to be changed.

It's the journey that matters,not the destination

Sometimes we're so focused on getting to the deestination that we lose track of our journey,the little things that matter. so when you get there finally,you wonder what's all that hype about.ive got everything but nothing matters in the end.when you make your final exit,you only bring along your experiences and memory with you.

A slow,lazy day

its a hot,sunny day.i start morning feeding my fish while having my cup of juice.then sunbathe in my garden of contemplation on annatta and annica.some plants dying of overwatering,others need watering.a garden is a labour of love.
