The late Revd Martin Luther King had a dream which is now a part of the History... So had we by the time we gave birth to this space, even though we know how so many things remain to be accomplished before seing ours reachin’ the same status.
We’ve dreamed of makin’ this site as a house, not to say THE house (or differently said, the home) of those who tend to recognize themselves in the countless expression forms inherited from the (Black) groove at the four corners of the planet. Utopia? Time only will tell, as our initiative which we were far from thinking that it would meet such an impact back in the daze...
History (once again) tells us how there are endly no more than two sorts of people. Those who, on one hand, want then find the means. And on the other, those who, not wanting, always find excuses to themsleves. Lack of time, money, talent, earnestness, self confidence, barreer of the language... The list looks like endless, but the result remains the same, often followed by regrets on a more or less short term. As a matter of fact, how many of those situations we’re up to deplore collectively speaking are the result of individual renunciations, themselves coming from personal questions such as ‘what is it worth?’ even though we’re in the position to decide at the precise time! The right of vote, for instance... But also and as far as we’re more particularily concerned here, the opportunity to communicate in an environment marked by the existence of ever more performant tools...
The cat would eat fish, but would not eat its feet (‘wer will der kann’) also says a famous German expression, in addiction to many others such as ‘give yourself some help and the sky will add to it’...
Once again, let’s stop thinkin’ that things happen the way we see them appearing nowadays. In other words: on a simple... click!!! As already said, they are in most cases the result of hard work being itself the price to pay to establish a name.
Singing stuff like ‘Love each other’ is a thing, but acting so is a far different one, added to the fact that that it looks like the only antidote facing the threat of uniformisation of our environment. Differently said, what we aspire to, what we love, we gotta support it by any means, should we have to make abstraction of the current competition at some time while considering it as a whole, the parts of which to be considered as the components of a community of interests.
C’mon, no need to have a look far away to know what the weapons of massive destruction are... Ignorance, individualism, selfishness to name but a few, being the way we act, consciously or not, for a vaste majority of us, are as many attempts made to our life quality and also to the supposed community we pretend to be a part of. And in regards to the latest, let me humbly remind you the Latin origins of this word: ‘com’ being derived from ‘cum’ which means ‘with’ and subsequently the existence of a relation of both senses between it and each of us individually speaking, meaning that should we be in the position to receive, we gotta be able to give...
