"Perhaps it is true that we do not really exist until there is someone there to see us existing, we cannot properly speak until there is someone who can understand what we are saying in essence, we are not wholly alive until we are loved."

contrast to muisc:
I don't like to watch the news. Only bad news. This is a symptom..
and I hate to participate in this way of being shown what i should see. Ja, the world is as it is, confusing, good and bad at the same time. It always was, just check out history.
Why not show more of the good and joy and smiles? Why not show more intelligence and humanity?
I'd wish more balance in the media world of daily news.
It is not that i want them to repress violence, keep us away from harm like small children, but i want to see examples of people and groups meeting this world with more and with more emotional intelligence.
Harder to find than people killed and bombs dropped and ships sinking, planes missing?
Well, go and look. Open your eyes. The daily news depend on what the press wants to see and what the press thinks we want to see .and then it turns out that people want to see this...so they can remain in blind fatalism, just sit back and say: this world is so bad. Is this intelligent? It makes money. That's it.
Well i could make money. I'd just keep mentioning three words: muslim, terrorist, Israel.
Then I use another three: sex, murder, love. Then I use another three: politician, USA, Merkel.
And so on.
Are you wiser now?

"Charlie Hebdo"....what does this incident mean for me? it disturbs me that the idea of freedom, that freedom itself is being attacked. but it is daily bread. again. it is "nice" and maybe important, that solidarity is being formed for freedom: or is it against terrorism? or is it against terrorists? it is ok if it is solidarity with the relatives and friends and colleagues of those killed. but is it not a show too? high profile solidarity..if it is "against" it is useless. you cannot fight stupidity, blindness, fanatism by opposing it with a march of solidarity . it needs more than that. it needs education, information, and it needs courage and integrity, and it needs the money to be used for education and not for more and better equipped police units. i admit that i like that politicians will endanger themselves joining the movement on the road.but what about all the other daily inhumanity, misused children, child slavery at the whim of capitalism, textile industry and corrupt regimes, children maimed by mines sold by so called civilized countries, women and children mistreated and exploited allover this world, young men forced into wars they didn't want, what about all these young people in Europe right here with a lost future? what about all the blood spilled in the name of so many Gods and misused enthusiasm?
big letters about terrorists killed and loud voices for a European anti-terrorist force. is it of any use and is it the right way? here in Germany we have now this beer- dripping dumb Pegida movement against immigrants and muslims already, nationalism has again been growing in many countries allover in central Europe and elsewhere. i hope that there will be enough balance of views and and a careful weighing of one evil against the other in the following political acts.if we give more attention to terrorist acts than to a more intelligent approach to life, communication and education in a multi-cultural society , if we are more against than for...we will lose all on the way to a life with more humanity, in the end we will show ourselves to be more stupid than terrorists. we will grow into terrorists against just this freedom we are talking about. we will be drawn into a spiral of hatred, revenge and and fear and close borders in the mind as well as politically. all this means that i support a movement for freedom of the press and art and solidarity with those suffering from these deaths at "Charlie Hebdo", but i will not support any movement "against" whatsoever and i only ask to get the relations right. and i am just sad.
