Resurrection of Alain Delon and reflections of a Ukrainian over the Vistula about the inevitable
I am standing on the banks of the Dnieper.
I am silent over the quiet water.
It's been a long time
I have to talk with myself, - Mykola Som wrote.
Before the Moscow invasion, I had been in Kherson over the Dnieper every day. Having escaped from the occupation after three months, I am currently reflecting over the Vistula in Poland.
Our fight for freedom has resurrected Alain Delon. The actor, who has played countless roles of heroes in war, has been preparing for euthanasia for a year. The resistance to aggressors, the feat of the Ukrainians have brought the famous actor and director back to life and to the screen.
Recently, he read our Kobzar's "My Testament" in public. What did the prophet Taras Shevchenko mean by the words "This a family new and free"? Obviously, what will happen when "When from Ukraine waters bear rolling to the sea so far foeman’s blood” not only will a renewed Ukraine be resurrected – the whole world will be changing.
Our perennial enemy - Moscovia, through agents, some political forces, idiots in power had been winning the information war against us. Our Ukrainian-Polish information center "Independent Media Forum", collectively with other patriotic media resources, will form a truthful, moral, ideological environment.
What is published here will always be the result of understanding many events and facts and feed for thinking. It is important to acquire the status of a generator of ideas in difficult times. And to do this when some journalists become bloggers, some go to the woods, while others to collect firewood, fall into the trap of "common languagе" again, do not hear the heartbeat of the era, and consider the past to be a suitcase without a handle.
Everything is wrong. Our heroic people are coming out of the prison of peoples and "taking their history with them", as St. Philaret said. Instead of three Orthodox churches, we will have one. Instead of terms "three brotherly peoples", "civil war", "peaceful coexistence", etc., we will talk about the nation, freedom and cooperation.
All these are our everyday topics. Our people, like the heroes of publications, will be personalities - in war, in agriculture, in science, in art - in life "on renewed land".
