Hi FOTM Team and ALP Members!
LaNell, I thank you for your persistence to feature me. As you remember I told you several times NO to this feature. You insisted and made me to accept, but dear friend I am a hard nut and difficult to tame. Deep from heart I thank you LaNell and FOTM Team for this point of honor and estimation making me the first FOTM person of the year 2010.
To make this forum a double diamond forum, now in early January, I will make things some difficult for all of you in this FOTM January 2010. I will upgrade its level to a special forum topic.
Most of you know me very well! In few days it is my 55th birthday. I have been featured in many forums and it would be waste of time and a repeat to give you same my biographic note again. For the new members or those of you who don’t know me well I recommend you to read my about me. The brief facts on me are there.
Now,who are we, what are we doing here and how did all this begun? Why must some of us be featured and for what purpose? As you understand I will have a philosophical discussion post here to tell you all that things are not as simple as many may think.
Being light workers, many of us work on enlightening others in new subjects, means that some of the stuff we put in may irritate our friends and make them feel bad and even make feel degraded and demoted. Some misunderstandings make us argue and sometimes make attacks and contra attacks to get back what we lost or what may lose from our dominance.The last years at this time of the year this community goes though aclimacteric period and the relations between us in some cases is bad.
This is a great community,lots of different categories, sub-categories and directions to follow. You will find any kind of subjects and find a corner in some of the forums or start your own forums to settle down in this community. I don’t believe there are any bad people and I am sure we all want to show our best sides because we are all here for a reason and to fulfill a purpose and maybe a personal mission.
Today I decided to give you a small part of my inner and some of my thoughts. Sometimes sounds and pictures describe life better than what is to be written and said, therefore I decided to make use of some pictures and video clips to make this feature a nice topic worthy to visit and with pleasure follow the replies.
There will be personal replies to every one joining this topic and several updates on this page so you can enjoy, be satisfied having everything in one page.
THE WHEEL OF LIFE
The wheel of life includes everything about a person and you could write many books about one’s life. Iwill give you some few details from my wheel of life.
Love and Feeelings. I am a very sensitive person. I can cry and tear. My life so far may have been as I dreamt of it with many surprises during my more than a half century long life time. Ihave witnessed both good and bad things, and there is much more behind my personality.
One of my weaknesses is to give aid and support to my mamma. I have been very hard to my 75-years old mummy knowing that I am her weakness. She uses to say “I gave birth to a child not to support his parents but only to be there for all the strangers”and that is the truth. I have never had the ability to express my love to my mother, instead I made her many times cry and feel pity for me, and that is very painful.
Here is a nice song including some of my real feelings on Mother’s love. I would like to share this song with you and dedicate it to my beloved mother Eleni Paraskevopoulou.
Mummy, My Poor Mamma
(Free and hasty translation by me)
Song: Paschalis Terzis
Bouzouki: Grigoris Tsistudis
(Input Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkCFPPK0hJo)
If they tomorrow brought me to the gallows
I know whose tears would fall drop by drop
from the wide big eyes,
mummy, my mummy, my poor mother.
Once they registered me as“murderer”
I run in the streets as chase making my life a runaway
to hurt the bad people, those,
yes those who defame me in your ears,
but your mind is unable to grasp.
In the deserts where I have been
holding sword in one hand and Bible in the other
came mothers and orphans and I tried to make
the “murderers” tear to turn it into a smile.
Now when the time came to close all bills
Who could allegedly say that I had a heart
like the children of love and try to forgive me.
Mummy, my mammy, my poor mother.
We all believe that we livein a cultivated world, but reality is not so because the governments rule this world in a direction that no God would accept. This is maybe the most barbaricage of all times. We all are modern slaves, executing what others have planed and constructed, for their purpose against humanity.
DREAMS FOR HARMONY ABOVE THE HORIZON
Those having the power to rule, politicians and religious leaders (all more or less relatives to each other are hooked atthe top and around the power centers trying to convince us that somebody else is the reason for all badness. From our childhood they instructed us to follow their decisions to make us individualists and no-caring personalities. Now being what they want us to be we can easily blame others for our failures too. We live in a world of racism, violence, sarcasm, body slavery and hallucination.
Today after all habituation and pressure from mass media man (the being of logic sense, Homo sapiens) is more barbaric than ever. I use to say that life is like a saddle-bag where you have all sins made by others in the bag that hangs in front of you and your own sins hanging in that the bag at you back side and you see only sins committed by others. All this happened in the name of globalization and for total control of the masses to glorify New Rome an old satanic plan to rule the world.
We are witnessing a period of catastrophes in most of the branches of our society. Family, the kernel of social life is totally destroyed. Religion failed. The ethnic feelings don’t exist. Some opened the “old prophecies”, others proclaim a new age. A new satanic plan is ready for execution. Religious leaders under instruction of political leaders meet around the world even in global conferences to set a new chronogram now for their united conduct and behavior to convince the world aboutoneness. They are ready to “send” and introduce the hologram of “The Savior”.
Of course man resists revolts and uproar from time to time. Now we are all waiting to see what will happen. I am glad that some very few people around the world know about this new madness.
What we need is to go back to the roots and find all that common spirit making us be have like human beings. The "savages" and the old cultures have still much to teach us. We want societies where people rules and not a chosen elite. Man is not created to have commanders but good co-coordinators with no power above others.
Where political and religious leaders are involved there is always business behind, with winnings and loses, which always results to violence, aggressions, hate, wars, death and destruction.
Greeks and Turks were always “noble” enemies and that because of interests, advantages and shares of glory and power for the elite (leaders). Simple people from both sides paid always the bill with their life. More or less same people having same back ground, tradition, culture, habits and manners had to be separated after religion into two countries. Question is can we coexist? I believe yes. People have to take initiatives regardless from governments. Having the experience of what have happened in the past, wars and genocides, we can learn from that to not make same faults again. Leaving behind all the atrocities, offends and hatred we can see forward for a better world in balance and harmony.
Let’s now start with an excellent description of good will for and pure love and in harmonic relations between Greeks and Turks. The following song “Archipelago” is from a TV serial, a great creationby Greeks and Turks contributing together for good relationship between the two people for better friendship.
After the TV serial we have had some marriages between Christian Greek and Muslim Turk couples. The critics for those marriages have been very positive. More and more people from both sides join the internet groups for a Greek-Turkish friendship on people basis. What governments can’t do simple people can. It is on time to straddle the ridges. Enjoy a very nice song.

Lyrics (man’s voice in Greek, woman’s voice in Turkish)
(Greek and Turkish lyrics in the clip)
Hasty step, you look like a wave
You hit me, I feel like a small boat in the rough sea
In other foreign land, the heart stays
You talk to me, I find unknown voices, secret words
Tell me where did u see the love
ligth in eye where is the love expression
tell me how much will it go on
the sun of the west works on the horizon
Bright glance, I feel the blood
You look at me, I find what they have told me the magic fables
In other foreign land, the heart stays
You talk to me, I find unknown voices, secret words
tell me where did u see the love
ligth in eye where is the love expression
tell me how much will it go on
the sun of the west works on the horizon
Tell me (söyle) where is the homeland
The hope of the love, in your eyes the light
Tell me, how much is gonna last
The sun from the setting, in archipelago…
When our governments stay out of our life we DO MIRACLES.
To all my contacts and friends all over the world I cordially wish a Happy and Blessed New Year filled of health, happiness, Joy and prosperity.
Sincerely yours,
Georgios
