trembling beast?

Am I a trembling beast, or do I have the Right? – the main question for one of Dostojewski’s characters. The conflict between social limits and a “thinking individual” is everlasting.

Social and moral bounds are set by and for a “median” society member, so does an above-average individual have a Right to outrage them? It seems that any revolutionary development (in science, in society, in art) is impossible without going out of these limits. But how can you know that going out will lead to progress, and not only to pain and crucifixion for others? And - even more important - how can you be sure, that you are this above-average and not just a trembling beast?

law of diminishing humanity

we diminish with the growth of buildings, towns, missiles, and the internet. lost in the background of our creations. pride, honor, dignity, decency - all lose their meaning. we become virtual. but in the virtual world, there is no place for soul.

lost in

don't look at me with daze, i'm not sick, and i'm quite satisfied with my destiny. in the ocean i'm still free, and in the danger my freedom is doubly valuable. you can never know where you loose and where you find. you just have to believe in reason, but live with your soul.

i'm not stupid enough to be happy, but i'm not wise enough to accept this

two worlds

i've lived in two types of societies - a poor one and a rich one. the core difference betwen both are people. in a poor society they do not have much time and wish to hide. they are mostly who they are - in the most cases you can easily distinguish between good, kind people and those, who care only about themselves. and usually there is a regularity that the good ones are poor or at least not very rich. But they keep together and help each other - with money, with food, with compassion...

In the reach society people are often difficult to understand. their souls are hidden behind money, goods, and senseless talks about nothing. only few of them understand, what is friendship, what is condolence. the worst thing about it, is that i becoming a part of this society. clear -it is easier to be a consumer than to be a human...
