Dear D,
Today will be my last letter to you. The reason being is a new circle starting takes a new approach and focus. I started writing to you on a whim which ended up lasting over a year, expressed several times a month. I am inspired daily by the worlds latest ludicrous happening which ricochets translated by my brain and brawn. Completely personal, hence the reason I back up my peculiar and particular opinion with anthropological data.
I used the verb ricochet because honest and harsh are usually the tone set for my way, which is far away from your elite writing but hey the message is getting delivered right?… A message with a purpose normally is to obtain money, power, justice or fame, mine is to make people aware. I remember asking myself a lot of questions about things viewed as normal in society and that goes back to the days as a wee girl of few years and centimetres.
Measuring is a common thing in our human society, the problem eradicates in the individual being rude or not polite about subjectivity. The far most are the assumptions, I will give you two examples. When tiny I attended a Montessori school, there was my first open confrontation with not fitting in the herd, as even the teacher disliked me! My second was a few years later, on the bus to school where a black man scoffed at me after an argument accusing me of not liking him because of his colour, where my response was loud and clear…what has your skin colour to do with you being a rude asshole?!
Assumptions come from fear and other irrational feelings which in my view is the outcome of a society based on material power and prowess. A world conquered by their better and bested by the conquested…sounds good but makes no sense at all if not explained. There is no such thing as a better or above, though a difference of beings by birth climate is certainly a thing. I can hear you groan, hang on I will clarify.
Assuming to live as your friend across the pond or the stranger at the other side of the border is right ridiculous as for a Swiss citizen wearing Guatamalteca ropes, the Korean being as outspoken as the Dutch or Spaniards eating English food…centuries of culture nurtured by climate. We are but a pile of electrons guided by climate essentially, which makes us all the same in essence but different in will and wish. I mean if you have a roof of clouds pouring rain and other wetnesses or a straight blue sky sintering on top of your head, nobody feels, needs or wants to eat, do, sleep the same way!
Ways there are to digest and suggest like a quote I read from a girl daughter to immigrants, “if I don’t get a career and a job, everything my parents did will be in vain“. That is respectable but it reminds me of the Spaniards when Franco “left“ and Mc D entered the country…of course the circumstances were deplorable and horrendous but before prooving your progress in embracing abroad think and act upon clearing and cleaning to real progress. We have been lured into a lingering lifestyle where the originals are doing their very best to escape from.
Escaping with obtained profits and leaving the results for the new arrivals with the bright site reflecting being ended the era of the throw-away society. The billions and trillions made by the big corporations with our aid and acknowledgement are now being gestured to funds and some foundations. Mostly to show their good disposition and decency in the aftermath that is…
Agarwood and Lotus silk versus Transnistria and Juneteenth dear D do I dare to double Dutch, babble or balderdash some more or should I leave it for another day and series, where I will pick up the pace (as in often, not grammatically)…? Naaah I leave it as a teaser but as a chaser, I want to remind you dear D and other readers although grammatically I seem awkward or just suck, I do hope to have made you see or realise and even perhaps have taught things like the AU children or the NCM. (do read earlier posts!)
May harmony find you,
Irena Phaedra
