Contemplation the entire day on so many ideas and thoughts, conflicting and at times filled with hope and resolution. It always works favorably when your thoughts consider positive ideas, or are in a position to receive that which compliments !!
There are times when superstitiously there is deliberate effort not to speak, mention, or talk of achievement. The argument being that what was to happen does not happen, and that coerces you to be quiet about it. Sane advise. Let those that experience speak rather than you. Its like charity. Speak about it and get criticized. It will all be about not what you did, but what you could have done or more .. and did not do. Or … highlight that which has no reference to the effort, but pick and divert deliberately an insignificant incident that could have taken place at the event, giving rise to shrieky chipmunk swallowed comments !! They that have never dreamt of any such consideration, but have only thrived in its cynical negativity, may they prosper and flourish and grow in greater strength. When stupidity grows, sanity prevails.
I have read about much talked documentary of the terrorist attack on the Israeli Olympic Squad at the Munich 1972 Olympiad. My wonder first is the efforts made in getting into record all that transpired exactly 40 years ago around today, and then the wonder at the events as they unfolded. All hatred has stemmed from disagreement at some time or the other. Disagreements need resolution across peaceful and accommodative modalities from both parties. There have been numerous examples of such incidence, sadly the end results have not been as accomplished. The lamentation is the extremes that result eventually are the ones that get the ‘talk’. Talk is what they shall get always and nothing more. When it is a know fact that the resultant efforts shall be null and void, why even attempt them. Some matters shall not change. They have been historically endorsed. And if there have been records created which shall speak of them, then they are covered by the Law of Confidentiality universally.
No shrill voiced cynicism shall be able to overcome this. Paper work and record, directives and commands of the time, artists and technicians shall, through what they know, reveal some matter which shall be of interest to all. Particularly with those that lived through that period of horror !! But I wonder. Apart from drawing headlines for a couple of days, if lucky, it shall all be forgotten, much like the closing comment from either the Israeli or German spokesperson on the tragedy of Munich, in the documentary.
“It is sad, very sad that this had to happen. But in a few weeks we hope all shall be forgotten !!! “
Life wishes for such events not to happen, but shall never ensure that it will not. What if it does ? The responsibility of predictive statement, would be much like what we go through by not mentioning or talking about healthy deeds promised and executed !!
Lots of love...
