Here comes a non-Cossacks-related theme and yet worth to be mentioned! A little blueprint of my thoughts...
8th May 2015
It's been today 70 years ago when the most terrible war ended the world has ever seen. There are still people who experienced those cruel days and they can talk about things that i personally can not even imagine. Me, as an open-minded, interested, and tolerant person, can not fully understand that once my whole country and most of Europe has been destroyed and in ashes. It's beyond imagination. Every year the 8th May is a reminder of the 70 years of enduring peace that our continent managed to achieve together and a reminder of the fact that such a kind of war may never happen again!
The 8th May 1945 was more than just the capitulation of the Germans or the victory of the allies. It's rather been a victory of freedom, prosperity, tolerance, peace and justice over an incredible tyranny, unjust, hatred, evil and madness. One may hate the European Union for certain reaons, but as a matter of fact tying Eurpean nations closer together by economical and cultural exchange was the key for peace on the European continent. I don't know how it is in other nations but especially here in Germany there are many documentations of the war on TV all the time and if you see the pictures of completely wiped out German cities it helps me remembering over and over, why a war such as this should never happen again.
I don't feel guilty as a German for what happened, because i don't represent the generation who was in the war, but i feel responsible as a human being to avoid that something like that would ever happen again! That should be the case disregarding one's nationality!
I enjoy having friends or acquaintances from all over the world. A key for peace is mutual understanding and speaking the same language. Understanding a foreign person lowers prejudices.
Cossacks was not only a game for me. It turns out if was for me also a tool for getting in touch with so many people all over the world in the last 14 years. I will never forget the experience i have made with the people - good or bad.
I learned that even if we speak different languages, we have the same problems, the same hopes, share the same thoughts, are afraid of the same things and live the life pretty much the same way all together.
There are no celebrations here today, it's a day on which one should be silent and reflect what has happened for it shall never happen again.
Yours sincerely
