A gulp of optimism

It is ofthen connected with smth bad whan you watch the news from Ukraine now. For the ordinary citizens, it usually causes the two types of reaction. As the TV News dotrine doesn't recognize the positive signs, the first one leads to the nervous breakdown risk increasing. The second type of the people reaction is a gradual decline of the News watching and concentrating on a small but really positive moments in their life. Talking about my family, we are rather somewhere between the two of them. Having worked on TV for some time, I'm not so dramatized about what they are showing there. So, when a chance for us to abstract from the constant economical reports mastication happened, we didn't hesitate long. A 'TIK' band - on of my old passion - gave a concert in Dnipro. Very positive, folk and dancing, they always charge you with that everlasting energy coming from a nation that overcame so many evils in its history. How can you stay emotionlessly during the rousing songs devoted to ... an alcoholism, or a teacher from a remote village, or a police senior sergeant? Funny and very much senseless, they can do more for you mental health than the thousands of PM promises. ...Joyful and tired, we came back home at night, and when I fall asleep, the words for the song 'Sveta' were still spinning in my head.
