Who is it?

as i was studying i kept wondering about the book introduction i read yesterday which was writeen in the 30's by an austrian about Ethiopia. i wondered about what he said and the slow but powerfuly way of dividing a country is by putting one ethnic group on top, weather literarly or by simpel words and the others down. he is an anti-semetic and and of course anti-ethiopian estabilishment and writes in the most negative way about the inhabitatnts. my question is how do you hate your enemey even if it is snifing your nose everyday and stabing you in the back if you dont know anything about it??? How could you alo differentiate your enemey from your dear friends? refering to countries and societies instead of an individual.
Because of the slow ethiopoian development, the society is unable to get vital information that could ultimately shown it the realistic world of love, hate, crime, innocence and everything else. however because the society is far behind from gettign this finformation, it will get misinformed and lead a life of blindness about the outside world.

UNITED ethiopia?

was thinking of the idea of the derivation behinfd the names unites dtates, united kingdom, united russia, and said to myself, why is it necessery to say united infront of their names? i thought it might be to remind the speaker that the country is a UNITED land and there is no division amongest the ppl who live there. these might serve as a two edge knife where it reminds the citizzen everyday, every minute and every second he/she spoke of theri country that they are living in a UNITED land, society. that will psychologically prepare them against any sort of divisions and hence force them to stand up against DIVISION, because its the direct opposte of their land.
on the other side of the knife, it protects the land from outsiders negativity. since outsiders are in continuous, non sleeping mode to divide the other country having a name as UNITED will force them to look for someting better to do than trying to divide a UNITED entity.
hence maybe having a UNITED ETHIOPIA, might stop outsiders and insiders continued urge to divide the land. one thing is true no society can speak of being clean from benefiting from another society while in the process of civilization because after all human beings are selfish beings and like to capitalize. I must add that the degree of capitalization some humans have taklen it do differ greatly from slavery, ashker, serf and etc. however these three lower class society have different meanings in different society hence comparing and contrasting each other with other different societies must be done with the out most re-considerations, other wise all the civilized societies we see today will be at each others neck and we will go back to the ice-age.

UNITED WHAT?

Pussy picking you

North america is one of the most unique place one can live, I must say after being here almost a decade, with out knowing it. life is good, there are good ppl, there are nasty ppl and there are those who dont give a fuck about anything but themselves. the latter are the direct decedndents of capitalism and imperialism, i think. they have come to learn to live with the system and obey it without judging it so they could get by better.
I laugh when guys my age act as if the are "pimps"..or ladys man...funny, because what they dont really know is the true meaning of it. I was also a misguided person before a couple of sound raising arguments with my higher educated friend. In our small world dictionary, a pimp is someone who got skills picking up a chick he likes, atleast that is how it used to be in the old days. now to the conterary women pick the guys. women eventhogh they seem innocent and submissive in the old days, now it has changed.
hence if the women is picking the guy, as my friend put it, "pussy picking you" you should not be too happy and call yourself a pimp. you were actually pimped by the women.
As an Ethiopina man, have to be honest that girls liking me is one thing, girls trying to talk to me is little too much and kind of turn me off. I let go so many opportunities where i could have got easy pussy but my diginity has let me down and said no. I, personally am more inclined to date a girl more of old fashioned, and conservative.

Note for me

I met a girl today, i must say kind of cute. i ask her if she is ethiopian and she replied she is eritrean! quickly i said you are abesha right? she said yes. i think it is better for us to still use the word abesha despite the negative connetaion it has, which i have written extensively about in my earlier posts. unfortunately, i might have runined our first impression of each other and maybe in the future i will rember to say "are you abesha? before I specify country......yemekatele hasab

Dont be everyhting

This is mostly written for the Disabora community who feel the need to represent the all dimensions of the society and forget to represent what they truely want....coming to the US most want to be a student, others just want to make money, and others just want to see how this part of th world is. however this goals evaporate when they arrive in the new land, in the hope of becoming everyting, so as to show the rest of the world the "better ethiopian". now, we only live ones, can we afford to live it by representing or by truly living our own life, becoming and doing what we like? I take the latter.
