Restraint must be practiced.

The French say:
Elegance is restraint.

Time has shown — it’s a foreign concept to the neighbouring clowns.

Well, they also lack elegance… which, ironically, is such a core value in our own faith too.

Ah! Maybe my heart would still have yearned for this watan. Who knows 🫣

On a serious note, as weisser-rabe said, these are indeed strange and chaotic times geopolitically. There is little sense or sensibility left. The policymakers, the hierarchy — they all seem to have lost their minds.
Or maybe… it’s evolution of its own kind. Whatever the case, these aren’t peaceful times — not for the mind, not for the heart, and certainly not for the world we’re leaving behind.
