WHEN WILL WE START TAKING CARE OF OUR CHIDREN’S FUTURE?
Sunday the 4th of january 2009
Since soon 30 years, I travelled the world and communicated with all kinds of government officials, non governmental instances, resource groups, ethnic communities, journalists of all Medias in the world to inform them about the intense desire of our youth to start some concrete actions to change the course of events.
The governments, the politicians congratulate us; they wish us a long life.
The non governmental instances look at us with indifference and interrogation while keeping their distances and trying to keep their image and satisfy their egos.
Charity organisms express their lack of funding.
Resource groups do not wish to regroup so they would not lose their benefits
All ethnic communities are in favour of supporting any action for our youth.
Almost all journalists ignore our talks and writings stating that they are not there to support or promote any cause or organism that wish to do something good for others. And of course, I am, as a person, an illustrious nobody to their eyes. Also all the letters I sent them throughout all these years are not very sensational news, and sensational is mostly what they are looking for..
Everybody wants to do something, but for most of them it is only good words, but all these good words can not realise anything unless they are accompanied by sustained actions towards the well being of our children. Because these children are, more than their elderly, and more than ever, respectful about the existence of others. They want to take part healthily in the evolution of the world, They do not agree anymore to live under the oxygen tent, they refuse the strait jacket obstinately, they rejects the artificial lung, they will not carry a mask and will not be the scapegoat!
Today extremely fortunately, the majority of the young people of the planet considered themselves as brothers and sisters and inhabitants of the Earth and far from many are those which consider the colors, the cultures, the religions, the beliefs, the languages, the origins as being elements being able to lead to any kind of segregation.
Humanity via its formidable youth progresses and becomes more intelligent, more tolerant and better informed. Our children are not racist and they are eager to act in this field with all their strength, without slackening while being very conscious of the actions necessary to the realization of this realistic and absolutely essential challenge for the changes that this same youth aspires to achieve.
Only a burning and constant desire could be the catalyst element of this extraordinary achievement which is for soon to come, I have inward conviction of it. Without these first steps anything else will not be possible. Because the majority of the problems of this world are closely related to this sad racism phenomenon.
This is why I ask you humbly; to accept to help me in this large and necessary achievement that represent the gathering of international youth to immediately undertake concrete actions which aim at saving the future of our children who, if one continues to have only pious vows, will be terrible for them. Time slips by at full speed and the consequences of our acts only contribute to increase the difficulty for our children, to reverse the current trend which does not lead to nothing good it is certain.
I cannot prevent from thinking of so many leaders of this world who told me personally sentences like: «Why should I care about the youth’s future and the problems they will face, I will be dead."!!!
They are these same leaders who collect millions or even billions of dollars each year in salary and benefits of all kinds on the back of the poor, the low income, the workers and the ordinary citizens of this world. These same ones who stole your belongings, your culture and your future without embarrassment, nor remorse. They are the same people selling you in all full knowledge hazardous substances for health, when they are not simply mortals, that only to make money at all costs. "!!!
It is them which finance the political parties, the despots, the dictators, the terrorists, the civil servants of all the nations, which corrupt the weak or dishonest leaders, justice and the social systems in place.
It is also these same cold people, without heart and pity, which collect money by the left hand to redistribute it with their right hand in all kinds of companies which manufacture conventional weapons, weapons of massive destruction, nuclear weapons, aerospace weapons, anti-missile shields, and shields anti-shields, and which, by the fact even, absorb all the financial resources of the planet in the war, the past, revenge, hatred and death, rather than to invest in peace, the future, forgiveness, love and the life.
It became extremely urgent to link all our forces with an aim of creating a new human moral convention. Let us cease thinking only of ourselves.
I often think of a famous sentence by my preferred French stand-up comic (Coluche) who said this in connection with top selling products: " When I think about the fact that if we were not buying them, it wouldn’t even sell.
Go visit the site of The International Youth Association (Canada XXI) Inc. at the following addresses; www.association-internationale-jeunesse.com and make circulate the information. I exhort you to support me by concrete actions. Let us leave aside the fine words and pass to action. I know with certainty that we are very few to currently draw the engine from a train that the very large majority of the people want to take.
How many of our children will have to die by weapons, before we start thinking that war is horrible? The Memorial Day, celebrated most everywhere throughout the world, always makes me wonder, because it seems to me that one never remembers anything and that one is always ready to start all the possible atrocities and rubbish again and again.
How many of our young people must commit suicide before we find that unacceptable? They do not have any hope anymore! And without hope life is meaningless.
How many thousands of children will have to die of hunger each and every day, in front of our eyes, before we have a real desire to intervene concretely?
I call for Help! In the name of the thousands of young people who informed me of their despair, their fears and of their incapacity to fight against this irrational machine which is the current world geopolitical system.
Allow me to insist and to call on you without stop, until the new era is born.
