We are located somewhere in the center of the world, and perhaps even the universe. Yes, that's the perception of all of us, maybe not everyone, but a great part of us probably sees it that way. Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with that, nor controversial. There's something special in each of us, yet we're all connected in some way despite our strong desire to distinguish.
Bosnia, as well as Herzegovina. Yes, it's not just Bosnia, there's also Herzegovina, let's not forget. It's logical, but still not for some. We're not such a big country to be so different, nor should we be pushing ourselves into two sides. Like a coin, our story is inseparably linked. Bosnia and Herzegovina, a very interesting place, with an even more interesting history and culture, can also boast a very specific non-culture, you'll know what I'm talking about.
While we take comfort in our neighbor's failure, our success is reflected in the stagnation of the entire community. Self-destructive policies and the same collective (un)consciousness clearly lead in one direction, actually in several, it's just a question of which defeat you choose as your final personal outcome.
There are, at least that's how it's “officially” taught, three nations, that are considered legitimate, and the others, and among the others someone will wonder who actually they are.
People love this country, both these and those, and the others, and at the same time they don't love it, neither love it these nor those, neither these kinds nor those kinds. Why am I telling you this, you surely know.
You don't know. You think you know, but you keep forgetting. You think you love someone the most, but is it really so? – No. When you think you know something, in most cases you don't. The perception of knowledge is individual and often subjective. We cannot fully appropriate knowledge, or as the saying goes, ‘acquire all the wisdom in the world.’ This is a social phenomenon, rooted in the former political narratives. We can freely say that it's impossible for an idea of this kind to persist for so long. Ambitions to be a respected and reputable part of the developed Western system must be earned. We can use the context of the European and global economic giant, Germany, which did not always have a brilliant foundation for its operations, but freed itself by integrating new ideas and policies that returned them to where they were and where they will probably be for many years to come.
And while some send their hopeless people out into the world, they later seek to instill in them the idea that they are saviors, preserving the natural balance, and so on. The question is, what is that balance? The balance of chairs or the balance of capable people in a local community? At the time when it's clear that ideas from religious beliefs have turned into harsh manipulation, I think we encounter a kind of paradox, creating false empathy in people and thereby a false sense of belonging to insincere ideas. We're certainly not doing ourselves a favor by turning a blind eye. It took time to bring things into some natural harmony after the dissonant times we've been through.
It's time to open our eyes. Love is the emotion that binds, connects, and directs people. Some will tell you that ‘they’ don't love it, don't love you, don't love themselves, but will they tell the truth? What is the truth, actually?! Who should we turn to and tell us that truth? – No one will tell us the truth. It's individual and subjective. Let's not fall for attempts at truth; let's direct love in the right direction. As long as you use someone else's ideas to love, you'll have an empty heart and a mouthfull. So ask yourself now. Who loves whom and how much. Shall we all start to love, so we could have as much love in the air as possible and much better living conditions?
Political narratives are strong, especially when they stretch back centuries. Certain lobbies are lined up to condemn you for being ‘subjective,’ or what the more liberal ones would call ‘personal’ opinion.
Freedom is a precious benefit and must be earned. The question is, how willing you are to fight for it, and wether you even want to or you prefer the comfort of your chair from where you send various messages in the comments below clichéd texts on click-bait portals.
Is it better to be obedient or successful? Or are there still some alternative configurations of free action?
