I am concerned about the happenings in Egypt.
The media loves violence.
Wherever it is
they seek out the worst.
Not many positives.
Go for the worst.
Of course they feed the people
who love violence - TV violence.
real face to face stuff
is not the same.
it is pure ugliness.
What has happened to the models set by
MLK and Ghandi?
Non-violent change/protest?
My concern about the mass rioting
(not protesting)
it is the group thrill
the mass behaviour which grows
just like football violence UK -
people get excited
and dangerous.
My starting point is Justice.
I support law breaking in the cause of justice.
I don't support violence.
Egypt must process change to democracy.
The trouble is - if it is smash and grab
looting and building burning
leaving only the gangs to benefit.
The strongest/most violent can then control.
Taliban stuff.
Mafia stuff.
I hope and pray for peace.
Not only peace.
But peace with Justice.
I pray
I feel the sexist TV pundits -
it is as bad as racism and homophobia.
Here I am giving opinions.
I would rather talk feelings.
I feel pleased that Joan is a lot better.
She has not been out since a week last Tuesday.
Mrs Beautiful will be out tomorrow.
She is ready and I am pleased.
It has been a strange time.
I apologies for my inbox again.
I am not responding to humans.
200+ in there and they swamp.
Hope I can get towards catching up this week.
I am ready for bed now.
Zig is on my knee
battling for space with my Laptop.
TV broadcasting Egyptian news.
Trouble concerns me.
Individuals I know too.
Youngsters caught up in violence.
Part of their culture.
I fear for those I know.
Three youngsters murdered in London
already this year - 2011.
My challenge
is how to facilitate experiences
which will equip these beautiful humans
into a wider selection of options.
By confidence building
releasing their inbred talent
to be able to contribute to the world
not destroy/rob/damage/suck dry.
A challenge.
I can see it happening.
I experience the bubble being burst
by themselves,
and a new person launched onto the planet.
There is not set procedure.
It is all about the peers groups
AND the individuals - their choices.
their support.
I have feelings about this
I carry those
I feel the hurt of those
residing there
I refuse not ........
