Shackled minds - new normal

Everything I do, I do it for you.


Poland has changed, possibly forever. I know everyone wants to pick a side and run with it, but the huge influx of new people here, millions of them, is not simply a case of "oh them poor Ukrainians" the reality is very different.
There are some that have turned to prostitution, I judge not, maybe they need the money, or just enjoy the work.
Some just sit on doorsteps drinking, others sit in the park doing the same.
Again, I am not the judge or the jury.
I am just stating facts, reality if you like, and if you do not.

As a result of this new influx of people speaking multiple languages, I now spend most of my time with my daughter, she goes everywhere I go.
I must say I do enjoy her company too.
We sing songs in the car, just at random, any she starts, we play silly beggars in the yard, chase each other for fun, and she keeps me young.

Now do not get me wrong, 95% of the new arrivals are just normal/nice people, but there is always going to be 5 to 10% that anyone is not going to agree with.
When people are getting drunk in children's parks and taking toilet breaks up trees in front of them, I draw the line in the sand right there.
Life is not black and white, it is not clear pictures, pick a side, it is complex, as are we all.
But all the same, this has given me a new lease of life, a stronger link with my 10 year old daughter, and now she gets to see how a farm works, she also gets to see how I restore motorbikes that one day she will inherit and sell.

That is a front fork from a Yamaha rd 350 lc from 1982. They sell for between £6,000 to £12,000 as we speak, or I type, so when she is 18 plus it should be worth considerably more.

I digress.

I/we moved to Poland for a better future for my youngest daughter, she speaks Polish in a superb way, English and Spanish too.
To understand where I lived before in Birmingham UK is complex, and I have covered it before, there are many grooming gangs there that are allowed to thrive by the police so as not to offend. Not covering that topic again.

It is not as safe here now, not like it was before, so I spend a lot of time walking with my daughter, playing games with her, acting like a child, letting her be one, why not.
You may think me selfish for pointing out the reality and facts, but to be honest, I am very happy to be spending more time with my daughter.
Reality bites, nothing is black and white.

Have a superb day, sunshine and all, we are off to play football in the sunshine and she gets to play on a swing.
Great life all the same, got to live it, to love it.

Why are you now on 0 rating?

Everyone can have their own opinion, despite the facts and I don't care what baah thinks. And contrary to what baah is claiming, I'm not a nazi sympathizer, I'm against the war. Any war, everywhere. I started downvoting him because he is spamming, a lot, incredibly long comments, he spreads misinformation and most or all because he is just incredibly rude and a harasser here.

For those reasons, many others have also downvoted him. And I'm done seeing his spam and slurs, especially on posts on Ukraine war. Same would go for any other person who would preach (continue with the same long copypaste comment everywhere) their beliefs and harass people.

He lost it with one of my memes post and here's a longer post about why I started to downvote him.

I see, thanks for the info, I like to hear both sides of any argument or idea.

I read your post, thanks for the link, we have over 2 million escapees here in Poland from next door in the Ukraine, not all angels, but for the most part all good.
My mother in the UK said yesterday that the Russians were camped on your border "Finland"....

If they attack you I fully expect ww3, but then again it seems almost like we are in ww3 already, who knows, not me, I can only say what I see, it is nice here today, superb weather, and time to plant some seeds, I farm you see, I grow food and share it for free, no charge.

I have no idea about Russians being camped on our border, there have been rumors in the social media that there would be some troops heading our way but that's not confirmed by any trustworthy media, person or the government. And if there are few armored vehicles moving, that's nothing abnormal. The rumor might just be something the Russian trolls and people working for Russian favor are trying to spread in order to spread fear. But we here in Finland are used to every other month border trespassing from Russian behalf by air or see. One plane or a ship "lost" for a moment to the Finnish side or some excuse. They are just trying out our response time.

Have a great day!

You too, have a good one, lovely weather here in Poland today.

Your opinions are what they are. I don't care.
You deserved my downvotes because:
Incredibly long comments = spam
Slurs = a bully.

But no matter what I've said, you don't believe me and you just think you are the victim here and think people are just trying to mute you because of what you believe. If only you would have been capable of discussing things, but no.
