The Human Factor




What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?—
...
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

(W. H. DAVIES)


Some decades ago Graham Greene wrote The Human Factor, which highlights how even in the most secret plots of the secret services, what determines the results is the human factor.

The same thing is to be considered in everything that has happened in the last three years, from the pandemic to the sanctions against Russia, up to the war in Ukraine, whose results are there for all to be seen, as long as one wants to see them.

The West, globalism, neoliberalism (or whatever you want to call it) which is the party that is becoming weaker and crumbling down day after day, is the best example of how the human factor is crucial. Globalism, in fact, privileged not the intelligence of its pawns, not their competence, not even their moral sense and their individual sense of responsibility towards the country and people they represent, but it has placed at the top of every government and institution its own devoted servants who in exchange for benefits (of all kinds) show themselves faithful to the Great Maleficent (Psychopathic? Satanic?) Intelligence of Globalism that leads and rule the world. And it placed them facing the diktat: either loyalty or ousting (even physical) from those privileges and grants that are given out of their loyalty.

And time and again, year after year, increasingly incapable, inadequate and incompetent personalities have been placed to run the countries of the world, profiles without skills but corruptible, wicked and evil but completely loyal (or forced to be loyal).

And the results are now undeniable. There is one part which is now growing and becoming stronger and preeminent that speaks according to a real and logical vision of the world and another part which instead wants and runs after a dystopic, alogical, psychotic world...

The winning part is that that has more competence, more respect for logic, for the social and religious values of its land and its people while the other one is forecasted to lose its power.

As Graham Greene pointed out, in the end, it is the human factor that counts.

And divine I might add.

Similarities between Lithuanian, Sanskrit and Ancient Greek: the sigmatic future

by Fabrizio Ulivieri Lithuanian is the most archaic among all the Indo-European languages spoken today, and as a result it is very useful, indeed, indispensable in the study of Indo-European linguistics. The most important fact is that Lithuanian is not only very archaic, but still very much alive, i. e., it is spoken by about three and a half million people. It has a rich tradition in folklore, in literature, and it is used very successfully in all walks of modern life, including the most advanced scientific research. Forced by our interest for this piece of living archaism, we go deeper in our linguistic survey. One of the most noticeable similarities is the future (- sigmatic future -). Lithuanian has preserved a future tense from prehistoric times: it has one single form, e.g. kalbė-siu 'I will speak', etc. kalbė-si kalbė-s kalbė-sime kalbė-site kalbė-s This form kalbėsiu is made from the stem kalbė-(ti) 'to speak', plus the ancient stem-end...

Yellow moons

Yellow moons at nighttime, Beyond the windows loom Stretch along and rise to bloom Flooding streets and singing rhyme. Downtown trains are full tonight. White pale girls try hard  Their world shy discard  Cross pale and dull the light. Like crows wave hands  Uneasy scatter and chat around Watch the light now profound. But proudly keep their stands. Nothing captures their heart. Like thorns they are - without a rose. Oh, if I were the one they choose I would span silent the dark. I know that window, I know it's late I know the stairs and the doorway I stand by the light at the four-way I walk down past the gate and wait. Will I see her eyes tonight? From a downtown train A girl among many faces, insane Will I catch her slight dim sight? Oh my dreams, if she falls away, Am I going alone nowhere? Following the moon's glare I lonely wait - watch the train stay. -------------- PS. " Downtown Train" is one of my favourite songs. Tom Waits’ voice, or Rod Stewart’s voice sing...

Lietuviško skausmo kultūra

  Gyvenu Lietuvoje jau keletą metų. Vertinu daug dalykų Lietuvoje. Ypač įdomūs man pasirodė žmonės. Mano nuomone, tai žmonės - ypač kilę iš kaimo vietovių, kurie sudaro daugumą - giliai įsišakniję skausmo kultūroje. Čia dalinuosi savo pastebėjimais, kurie gali būti neteisingi. Jei mano pastebėjimai neteisingi, prašau juos laikyti išoriniais — užsieniečio iš kitos kultūros žvilgsnio pastebėjimais Pagarba kitam paprastai matuojama laisve : „Kiek toli galiu peržengti savo laisvę, netapdamas problema kitam?“  Lietuvoje šis matas tampa kitu klausimu: „Kiek toli galiu peržengti savo skausmo slenkstį, kad mano skausmas netaptų problema kitam?“ Lietuviška kultūra yra giliai panirusi į skausmo viziją. Taip nutiko dėl daugelio priežasčių, tačiau svarbiausia, mano akimis, yra viena: lietuvis žmogus yra užsidaręs savyje - izoliuota, uždara ir beveik neįveikiama monada. Lietuvis žmogus turi savo tapatybę, bet ją visada sieja su dominuojančia viešąja mintimi. Jis eina savo keliu, bet visada...
