The Power And The Glory

The sketch I drew is from a photograph a view as I interpreted. This added image to the April 22, 2010 entry illustrates the picture of Hitler one of the most recognizable portrait of the 2oth century the lead Nazi Adolph Hitler who wrote a book of his dreams and goals and for a good while he was accomplishing his plan. The plan on the contrary for China does not parallel that of Hitler by any means and there are many men who have written their plans for China in the world arena. I have not come to know them sorry to say. But I know what I think as a commoner among the masses. China is rising to power but I'm not going there; I'm not saying it. I'm just a mere observer not a leader of any country. I just follow the leaders of my country and bow before the authorities who rule over me. Am I pious? I'm more than that in every humbled way. But enough of that. Let there be China in as much as it is a hated nation which in the minds of many should never be where it is now. It has risen from a nation of humiliation and impoverishment to a nation of cheap goods flooding the world market and ruining the entire world economy. Do you know why we are now in a worldwide recession for so long and it isn't getting any better? Doesn't it appear I write so bitterly about China? I think I do. I do so because China is my fatherland and it is my dream that it can do better as it has done so well before but was forgotten; no one remembers in the mainstream media that China was once a glorious nation with a magnificent civilization and dynasties beyond what we can imagine today. It can do it again just as the New York Yankees demonstrated it has the power and the glory in having a first rate pride in championships year after year a dynasty in the sport of baseball. China can and will rise to power just when I haven't a clue but I sense it I feel it in my bones China is within me I am from there many generations ago it is in the power of me to know that country even though I do not speak that language but I can tell you in English. Am I speaking of the insanity of it all? Yes the whole world did go mad when it devoted itself to worldwide violence and the development of tools of mass destruction never conceived of until now.
