Prayer we avoid this.

A fact that comes out of the recent time equation is the lack of free will, or even there being none we humans possess. Does not mean we should be fatalistic or defeatist.

If we act too slowly..

I live in a Chinese part of America and know that children grow up well by what they are taught. My opinion is that it is a very good upbringing. Thats why I am fine with China and Xi.

Most wars are not good, and are not very good in many ways. This war feels like a high density world war two where a small battle field bursts with death at times that is hard to bear as we share this in our hearts if we are on the battlefield or not. I think we humans around the world are feeling it, and it feels bad, and then months later more bad. Human tolerance is being pushed. Violence needs to cease, my opinion, but not without my lifetime of experience. In my experience this is a powder keg worse than the middle east ever got.

This founder of America will not ever be forgoten.

Am I a fool, to think this, to say, "I ask Xi to end this war in Ukraine." Just God as I understand God would say he would. And I would not be so cynical anymore.

I can do better, I will do my best and better, and that is not just for me, there is so much to do, a world of wonder, a time for fun, fuck no to this war and plunder.

A picture that has haunted me a bit.

The greatest.
