And on the screen

A blow – and the opponent has bent. Running jump – and a kick in a stomach. The opponent falls down. A rattle from a throat. Blow. Blow. Blow.

He was finishing him off – beating the lying one. The rival – the enemy! – has no more forces to resist, even to rise up – and to strike back. He would surely strike back – if he had risen, of course. And that’s why he should not be given that chance, he must be – finished off. He has been pursuing this bastard for so long… through half of a country… and has finally caught up. The destroyed family, his family… this wound was still bleeding. But it will be cured… when he will see his mortal enemy, begging of mercy on his knees – which he won’t get. Ever.

This final triumph was so close already. Now that berk is already hardly creeping away from him, leaving a viscous trail of blood. A little bit of time – and there will be a triumph… his long-awaited triumph! This, surely, will not bring his family back – but nevertheless, this swine will get what he has deserved! His family has already faced the consequences – and only he still remained…

Another blow – and the enemy has stopped moving on the ground. Moved no more. Absolutely. Finally. Meet your death, bitch!

Final strike… He took a pistol from his hip-pocket. A gunpoint, set on a bent and lying still a man, a spiteful smile in eyes of the killer… Click.

Button click. A TV remote, thrown aside. No more! No more! No more!

Foolish action films! Murders, blood and revenge, animalistic rage and terrific hatred… On almost all of the channels. When they will finally stop broadcasting these slops? Only a handful of channels, speaking about culture, creativity, worthy human undertakings and achievements still live on – but are people accustomed to watching this? They are being fed with crap and assured that it’s a food of gods, the way it should be, a significant cultural achievement of all developed countries. And some even believe that…

It’s necessary to change this system! Mass-media need to seriously think on what they give to the people and of what they deprive. People need to think of what they would really like to see.

He will not stand aside. Tomorrow he will bring up this question at deputy meeting. Tomorrow he and his like-minded will tell their word against violence, against cruelty – even those exclusively cinematized. But will they be heard? Will they be listened to by millions of viewers, by each one of them? He hoped greatly that they will be. For so much depends on that –  on choices of everyone –  and this choice as well.

Sat down to watch TV for the first time in a month… And – take it, eat it, bless you. Fie! I’ll better play and have fun with my child this day off. Yes, it’s a right choice and a valuable contribution, and not some consumption of slops.

Alex, let’s go and play ‘horses and rider’s!

Wow, father! The new game, yes? Fantastic! Tell me, tell me about it quickly!

Yes, we’ll now play with you in ‘horses and riders’, and then have a jog to the stadium and back. All right?

Certainly, pa! That will be great!

Fine. So, well, listen here. Game rules are really simple…

Cupid

Ave! Did you check yesterday thought-mail? I left there a couple of new messages, concerning our couple and temporary-spatial coordinates for their potential meeting.

Aye-aye, comrade sergeant, I checked on that. But you know that I have little experience yet, afraid to miss my target. And what exactly happens to people when you do miss – they haven’t yet told this to us in the Academy, we were only given a generic induction, concerning safety measures and use of bows.

Well, that depends on how you miss it, his current curator answered to the cadet with a smile. It’s possible to miss the way that you will feel sorry for all their lives, and they will never remember you by either a kind word or a warm thought. For example, if you strike their heads instead of hearts, they will respect each other with a guarantee – but hardly will pass hand-in-hand through, as we say, fire, water, and trumpets of Jericho. If your arrows hit their stomach spot, they will certainly love without fail – yet not each other, but their own refrigerators, especially at night, especially after 6 P.M. And if you happen to strike, well, below their stomach – the flame of passion in their relations will be able to burn them alive, but a warm flame of love will never spark. And our mission is to give them love. So – keep training with phantoms and don’t miss. With these words the man with white wings and golden feather on his head, that was called as a sergeant, approvingly clapped his workmate in new given to both of them a mission and stood close to him at a shooting loophole of the fortress, observing with a smile how curly-headed pink morning clouds keep floating below.

Thanks for explanations, comrade sergeant. I will surely consider that in my training!

And also when you pull a bowstring, move your wings back as well so the tension will get stronger, and impulse of Cupid will exceed one hundred of spiritual units upon hitting. If it gets below that value – they can indifferently pass by each other and will hardly have anything between them in the future. And if it gets greater than one hundred – it will always work, verified by experience.

Comrade Sergeant, and why should this happen near a bus-stop? You wrote that to me in thought-mail yesterday. I, certainly, formed today a path for him there, made arrangements with colleagues, estimated times, gave him a couple of necessary thoughts, even shown a dream about this upcoming meeting. Yet I still don’t understand – why are they supposed to meet with each other there instead of a nearby park, it’s located not far away and there are fewer people there, it would be more comfortable for them to communicate with each other afterward.

And this, pal, was not my will, but the higher one. I am too small and inexperienced myself to solve tasks like management of destinies, sergeant burst out laughing. Department of Destinies Control provided me with all required data when I was appointed to this task. And there, as you well know, serious pals are working, and everything turns out to be calculated and verified by them in advance. It’s you, pals, who should be taught almost everything, even how to properly hold one’s bow so that tears don’t splash from one’s eyes. So, should I demonstrate you how to strike a heart of humans so that their souls sing in joy afterward?"

Aye-aye, comrade sergeant, please demonstrate!

Well, pal, look thoroughly! skilled Angel-curator answered to the cadet, taking his bow from a belt. Do you see phantoms of two people, created by me on that cloud? And now I just – w-h-o-s-h! and loudly singing in the air arrow accurately pierced hearts of two targets that were standing one after another.

My God! cadet exclaimed in surprise. Two in a row! Cupid impulse equals to two thousands of spiritual units!

Study, pal! Only that way they can be laid together in a row! laughed the sergeant.

***

Today – if such a concept is applicable for worlds where time goes non-linearly – it was very briskly in the Academy. One can imagine! First spiritual-battle experience is not a joke at all, especially if there is a responsibility for a couple of two future lovers, lying on your wings.

Angela cadets, who were yet to be engaged into their first battle, accurately soared above the ground, holding bows of golden color in their hands. These bows along with specifically shaped for them arrows were the well-known invention of the legendary engineer Cupid, who has graduated from Angelic Military Academy with honors a lot of eons ago, and their most valued ability was to strike humans to death – in the sense that after direct hit in their hearts all negative feelings, created by opponents of Angels, were gradually dying away, obeying to imperious call of born sincere love. Actually, many people usually called these masters of arrows and bows by name of the inventor – even though this was incorrect, for each of them possessed his unique name, granted from above and difficult to pronounce in common for humans language.

This Academy was well-known in the Seven Worlds. Reminding unapproachable fortress, soaring in the air over the clouds, which were dimming the sky, it was a home for many of the best military engineers and smithy of the highest class of warriors. And one of these classes were such Cupids.

Hold on! Quietly! Stand up in the air above the ground by the length of wings! Elderly colonel, who has come through many battles with demons and was deprived by them of a half of his wing, was giving orders to cadets, who have arrived at firing practice, walking by parade-ground made from shining stones. Divide into pairs for training firing practice! Move on to loopholes!

Colonel walked to and fro from one loophole to another, checking combat readiness of his future soldiers and correcting from time to time their fighting stance, the position of wings, the validity of chosen targets, the tension of arrows and a lot of other extremely important aspects in a life of each and every real Cupid.

Is everyone ready? he asked at last.

Aye-aye, comrade colonel! hundreds of Angels, standing near castle loopholes, answered him as a chorus.

Fire at will!

Guardian Angel

Yes? my snow-white Guardian Angel turned to me and smiled warmly. Have you called for me?

I… hm… to tell the truth, I wasn’t totally confident that you were listening to me, I mumbled.

I always do listen to you and hear you, the Angel said. But you currently, unfortunately, not.

So… do you want to say that you have nothing like a lunch break or anything like that? I was surprised.

No, replied the Angel. I have a need for neither sleep nor rest. It’s you, people, who prefer to sleep with eyes open widely.

You mean that you are always at work? I guessed.

Well, yes, my dear Angel replied indulgently. I am in a service to the God.

And how do you fare there… well, in general? I found nothing better than to ask that.

Well and good, the Angel answered. Dry and warm. Even though there are no millions of options to choose from here. It’s you, mankind, who will soon have to choose at last.

To choose what, exactly? I asked.

Destiny. Life or death. God or Devil. Light or Darkness. Whatever you name it, the essence stays the same. Well… and the Angel became silent for a second, you, fortunately, understand that well.

I do, I answered. A pity, though, that I don’t always hear you.

It’s all in your powers and in desire, and the Angel smiled again. Such is my job, actually, to always hear you and help you to find the God.

And what prevents you from doing that right now? I made my next question.

Him, mostly, and the Angel has shown his wing on the left. Well, and sometimes you too, when start doing nonsense.

Who’s that, him? I asked hastily, and only then have noticed the Imp, standing nearby, that black one?

Well, it’s only now he looks like that, replied my Angel. But he’s able to pretend to look as oh-so-white in times, like a chameleon. See, how he stares at me right now? and the Angel smiled warmly and pointed his wing to the left again.

I take it that he’s angry? I questioned my Angel.

Yes, he’s like that, from time to time. He has his job too, after all. And he’s too will be judged, as well as all of us.

Judged in what sense? I misunderstood.

Oh, you don’t know yet, do you? my Angel was surprised. There will be a revision of the universe soon, and the Dread Judgment of the Lord, as you call it. I would, however, rather name it Just Judgment.

And what will be after the Judgment? I asked.

Life or death, replied the Angel, for you, for me, and for him – and he pointed his wing on Imp once again.

You mean, you can die too? I was stunned, Are Angels not immortal?

Not for the Judgment. If the Tempter of any man, guarded my ones, similar to me, prevails, the Tempter survives, and Angel and the man become history. If the Guardian Angel prevails – then he as well as his ward survive, and the Tempter becomes history instead. It’s that simple. Such is the Court.

And the people, who have turned to the path of evil, betray their Angels as well? I was terrified.

Alas, indeed. And try to feel now, and my beautiful Angel stirringly looked into my eyes, how it’s – to die for immortal one?

And… how many Angels are going to die like that?

Under preliminary forecasts – many, and the Angel sighted sorrowfully. But… and he became inspired once again, everything can still be changed.

If people will hear their Angels and step away from the dark path? I questioned.

Yes, said the Angel, if they would prevail over their nature. There is very little time left, he added.

Little time left?

When clock’s arrows will be on the top, and Angel has become silent for a moment, very interesting events will start to happen.

The world will be changing?

Definitely.

Can I help people realize what is awaiting them? I asked hopefully.

Certainly. It’s all in your forces and in the hands of God. And I, too, won’t abandon you, for certain.

How I do love you, my pure Angel! I have exclaimed with tears in the eyes.

I know, he smiled mildly. Come to me, allow me to embrace you in my wings.

Thank you, Angel, thank you so much for hearing me and caring of me! Let us never part from each other!

Yes, let it be so, my Angel has tenderly answered, gently covering me with his white wings. Let’s start to always hear each other in the long last…

Charity

Charity… what a tempting word! Creation of good deeds in the name of the neighbor and the distant one in favor of him. A universal, socially approved way to atone for your spiritual sins, at the same time being known as the most generous, extremely decent, surprisingly compassionate… A fake mask of care for thieves and lawless. You will love this one.

There was a time when your business was just starting… A terrible time when everyone was ready to cheat and even kill anyone who has tried to cross his path. The country was just starting to commercialize, selling itself piece by piece. At first, morality was thrown out of the house as the windiest girl, then dignity was seduced, and love managed to commit suicide by herself. Exactly this ninth wave of chaos and destruction helped you to get out of the darkness into a new wonderful world of buying and selling. You have been selling lots of stuff, starting from bubble gum and Playboy magazines for teenagers and ending with firearms for local authorities! You liked the very idea of being able to buy everything, including people.

As is well known, the one who has the biggest gun is always right, right? And you truly wanted to thank your former mentors with just the same methods. Probably, precisely in those moments, when you were watching how two criminal groups, in one of which you were recently a member, were shooting each other brutally and methodically, sparing neither bullets nor cars, something stirred somewhere far away within you, something changed. At that very moment, the idea of charity was born inside you for the first time.

Then there was a lot of very different years to come. Your natural sense of smell and firm grip helped you to survive in this meat grinder, to become a local authority and a roof for others who were just starting their way to nowhere. Of course, from time to time you had to make contributions to own aching conscience – that’s why you took up the weekly offerings for the temples. Most certainly, you didn’t believe in any gods – but that’s how all your business colleagues behaved, and, besides, you just wanted to feel somewhat safe – to keep hoping that such life’s luck will accompany you further. Hope is a powerful force, indeed… And what wouldn’t one do to make his soul silent, right?

And then the time of troubles was over, it was the time to take the oath to the new leader, and you gained the opportunity to climb even higher – straight into the power circles. For, after all, even there – especially there! – money does its dirty work very well. By the time it all happened, you had almost made a lifetime fortune – drug and firearms dealing has always been a profitable business, to say the least. Just a dozen small offerings to the right people – and you are already familiar with the higher echelons of power. Is it not the devil’s luck?

Soon you legalized – the inevitable step for the criminally acquired capital in the conditions of indicative witch hunting. And then you again remembered of the charity and donated a small share of the stolen money for the construction of a couple of playgrounds in your old schoolyard. It’s so sweet to remember own childhood at times! When you had been watching in person the result of your feats of generosity, you had almost shed a tear. They wrote about you in newspapers and presented a short interview on one of the local TV channels, and your new business skyrocketed. What wouldn’t one do for the sake of the neighbor!

Now at times you publicly under the gaze of television cameras give to some unknown dunce from the crowd your new gold-plated watches – not really new, of course, but specifically purchased and worn in search of a suitable case, as if reminding these slavers that they all will not live for long. From time to time you transfer several million dollars to organized by you charities and various funds of helping the starving children of Africa so that the commoners can write about your generosity in their newspapers and money can later return to their rightful places. Sometimes you even help to organize the repair works of some dilapidated Opera house, so they could at least wash the floor and whitewash the ceilings – introduce the young generation to the culture, so to speak. And sometimes a couple of kids from a forgotten shelter of the humiliated and insulted ones gets their penny so that they don’t starve to the death before your feat is imprinted in newspapers. And what wouldn’t one do for the sake of his distant one, truly?

Since these times you have always remembered about charity – been sharing with the world, so to speak. Spitting out undigested excesses of your wealth. You became a very influential person – oligarch, as every impassable cattle usually calls you, progressive and successful ones. But whether owners of factories, newspapers, ships, and yachts really care of what all kinds of plebs dare to think about them? This generally approved charity was created specifically for plebs – let them think that they are thought about and be content with it. After all, you are certainly not going to share with them all that was acquired by overwork during a long term of theft and injustice! All in all, the charity was invented for the purpose of giving people like you the opportunity to temporarily feel much better than you actually deserve.

You have been thinking about God a lot lately. Maybe he really exists – after all, who else would help you to arrange such a grand life? Or, maybe it was not him but someone else – someone who truly desires this kind of pseudo-philanthropy and false sacrifices of human ego and selfishness? You don’t know the right answer to this day after day more and more tormenting question. Yet something deep inside you moves and shakes more and more with each passing day as if in anticipation of something terrible that is approaching, something truly dreadful for the ones like you, false-gifts-bringers…

Diseases of our age

The present document confirms that Main Ministry of Health in association with different well-known medics of various countries have formed a list of diseases, common for the modern generation of individuals, calling themselves Homo Sapiens.

We, authors of this list, don’t apply for completeness of description and characteristic of all illnesses, so casual for individuals of our generation, but still hope that given classification will be able to clarify the already uneasy question of preservation of so-called spiritual, as well as so-called physical health.  Let us note that due to the exceptional conditionality of similar division we are unable to classify separate illnesses as belonging exclusively to the first or second group, for, in fact, they are a consequence of infringement of processes of healthy individual activity (HIA) as a whole.

The list of diseases of our century in addition with their brief description follows.

1. Spiteful

General description. As a rule of thumb, the indicated ailment is spontaneously arising in a short-term duration by its nature, however, in some neglected cases it can become a permanent trait of personality. Medical science hasn’t been able to define till now a constant enough and a certain list of reasons causing represented disease, although specific observations have nevertheless been collected. It has been noticed that given illness in its permanent form can be triggered by such diseases as Ugly Duckling, Victim and several other illnesses with similar semiology, however, similar law has its exceptions for the reasons unknown, which gives us reasons to make an assumption of the soul-genetical predisposition of separate individuals to this disease.

Symptoms. Those suffering from this disease can be distinguished by their increased irritability, the pessimism of views on surrounding reality (independently of surrounding them an objective reality), being the consequence of spontaneously manifested by them hatred and anger, concerning other individuals being in contact with them.

Treatment methods. For the purpose of treatment of current illness, universal revitalizing remedy Kindness has been proven as a most effective mean. In especially heavy forms of a clinical course usage of antibiotic Suggestion becomes possible. Contraindicated for application is the vaccine Humiliation.

2. Hated

General description. In its semiology, this disease is similar to manifestations of Spiteful one, which has given some experts a reason to consider this disease as its aggravated form. It should be noted that easy forms of this illness can cause along with Spiteful a set of other illnesses, including Ugly Duckling, Fearful (mainly in the form of the protective reaction of individual), Star-like and especially Lord.

Symptoms. The extremely negative attitude of the individual almost to each and every aspect of manifestation and functioning of surrounding reality. Easy forms of the disease have a spontaneous character on its manifestation in the form of the negative reaction of the individual to this or that vital circumstance. Heavy forms of the illness are characterized by a permanent negative attitude of the individual to other individuals and various aspects of manifestation of objective reality as it is.

Treatment methods. Universal revitalizing remedy Kindness was considered as the only effective mean of curing (especially in case of an easy form of course of a disease), which usage, however, can be restricted to the majority of patients due to artificially high prices, formed by huge overestimated demand along with significantly lower amounts of supply.

3. Fearful/Timid

General description. According to the latest researches, the cause of the emergence of this illness lies in the insufficient production of a Self-confidence hormone in the organism of the individual. By its signs specified illness is almost an exact copy of the previously discovered Timid disease, so in this connection experts in the field have made a decision to consider both of them as one. It’s necessary to clearly distinguish forms of protective reactions of the organism, trying to overcome this disease, from the traits of a Hero condition, even though they can look extremely similar in external forms of manifestation. Along with that, it’s also necessary to note that is some situations symptoms of manifestation of this illness can be similar by results to a positive effect of Reason enzyme, which can considerably complicate the analysis of an objective condition of the patient.

Symptoms. A symptom of this disease is a permanently showed by the individual fear in various vital circumstances in case of the making of decisions, performing of actions.

Treatment methods. Due to the impossibility of artificial synthesis of Self-confidence hormone for the treatment of this disease usage of antibiotic Suggestion is recommended.

4. Ugly Duckling

General description. Given disease is most characteristic for individuals at age of twelve-eighteen years. The main feature of this disease lies in the possibility of self-treatment of an individual by achieving a certain level of high consciousness. Medical science still hasn’t determined exact reasons of similar self-healing of some individuals, however, an assumption does exist that reasons for similar curing are in fact activated processes of fast synthesis of hormones Tranquility, Good nature and Self-confidence in an organism of a former patient. Except for cases of congenital spiritual-genetic predisposition, the reasons for the formation of this disease can be:

Communication of yet healthy individual with another individual, infected with diseases Spiteful and Hated.

Communication of yet healthy individual with another individual, infected with disease Victim.

Frequent injection of vaccine Humiliation by one of the other individuals, close to yet-to-be-ill one.

Symptoms. A well-known trait of patients is a permanently lowered emotional condition, spontaneously shown complaints and grumbling about their destiny and similar aspect of the spiritually-emotional state. In especially continuous and hard cases of course of an illness, a commission by the individual of irreversible act Suicide becomes possible. 

Treatment methods. For the purpose of curing of this disease, universal revitalizing remedy Kindness has proven to be extremely effective, as well as usage of artificially synthesized hormone Tranquility. Usage of hormones Good nature and Self-confidence in this case is also highly desirable but is not achievable due to the impossibility of their artificial laboratory synthesis. Especially effective can become a treatment of the patient with specified medicines by relatives of the mentioned individual along with the application of universal revitalizing remedy Kindness. Healing is considered most effective before the patient has entered a phase of consciousness known as Adult, after which efficiency of treatments starts to quickly degrade.

5. Victim

General description. This illness represents one of the possible forms of development of Ugly Duckling disease. Individuals of all ages, nationalities, and religions are subject to be infected by this disease. It’s highly recommended to distinguish sporadic exacerbations of the disease in question from symptoms of the Hero condition, that is characterized by own readiness to sacrifice welfare/health/life for the good of others.

Symptoms. A feature of manifestation of this illness lies in a specific transition of consciousness of the individual into a still insufficiently studied condition, which consequence is a distortion of a traditional picture of perception of objective reality. Diseased patients begin to discover in all occurring events some sort of ill fate of their destiny, intrigues of the haters, desiring to prevent their great plans from fulfilling according to their own ways of expression of this state of their consciousness. The continuous clinical course leads to a permanent decrease of the general emotionally background of the patient, which in some extreme cases can lead to a commission of the irreversible act Suicide.

Treatment methods. Due to the insufficient study of a state of consciousness, transition into which occurs in the process of this illness, effective enough methods of treatment have still
