一些唧唧喳喳的日记

Krtek and the Fish. It is the second to last episode of the sof  eries, very short and brief. 

Krtek and the Fish 

I am not sure why the little fish happens to be in the national colour of Ukraine. Maybe it is an coincidence, or maybe it is intentional. The answer cannot be found anymore,

in the eyes of today, it might be apparent the Sturgeon can be viewed as the aggressor, either the country specifically, in this instance, Russia, or the aggressive imperialist principals. the small and weak needs to be rescued, just like what Krtek did

But should sturgeon be destroyed? Or cooked for food since he wanted to eat the small adorable fish for food? Certainly not, sturgeon has its place in the river. Krtek captured the mean sturgeon and put him downstream instead, in a world perhaps he belongs to, just like how sturgeon is an endangered specie, a fabric of epoch from million years ago themselves these days. Isn't this similar to Russia as a country as well? It has the relics from near extinction, the good and the bad. 

In terms of the international relationship these days, however, it appears the US is only interested in attrition and Russia only wants revenge.  What if the potential (exploring the space, exploring human beings, exploring the humanity... we know such capacities have existed for century or so) of either side is used for better good?
But given how human is, if the potential of Russia is utilized with capacity of the US, inevitably it will fall into the wrong hands and no one is strong enough to balance. The world will plunge into another dark age... I guess that’s why China has better to stay as enemies so is Russia, with nations divided. 
It takes someone sincerely loving to destroy effectively... either a pretty boy or a country.  

I wish the dynamics of international politics have the wisdom of krtek finding a constructive co-existence, reflecting on ourselves, and respect to the nature. Instead, we cooked sturgeon for food, slaughtering for revenge and strangling as national policy.  In return, agitated sentiment is unleashed in an endless circle of revenge. I’m resentful about the US standing on the wrong side of history during 1993 congress crisis of Russia.  Boris Yeltsin dismantled the last institutional mechanism of the country paving the way for Putin to be a dictator. But that mechanism was the supreme soviet and how could any US politician stand by them in 1993? So they stood by so called reformist Yeltsin enabling the breeding ground of authoritarian strongman  into the new century

I’ll talk about the jewel at another time. It’s too painful and shameful to comprehend at the moment...
