13th of January 1991 was the day in Lithuania, when thousands of lithuanians were standing around the TV tower in Vilnius to protect their country and get their independence back from Soviet Uninion. People wanted to be free, they were not afraid of death because their hearts did not let them to give up. We (lithuanian people) were hoping to get help from other countries as well, we wanted to show all the world, that we WANT to be FREE! And we made it! I am really thankful to them unarmed people who were not afraid of Soviets´tanks because they were more afraid of loosing their hope to become free than tanks or army...
Moreaover, when I see whats going on in Ukraine, I want to stand up and help them, talk about it as loud as I can! Once we got help from others, now someone is asking help from us. Of course, it is a different reason why things like this are going on over there, but idea is same - people want to be free. Free from corruption, from injustice, inequality! They want to live normal, civilized lives. They want to have country where government would not be selfish. Are they asking for too much?
We are information society, we can get news about everything all over the world, we are able ´´to go for a walk´´ in the different country only by using internet programs, we can watch direct TV news from any place of the world. Also we are using technologies in almost every step we take, almost all of us having smart phones, taking pictures of our food or tan or new manicure, we are showing everyone that we are going to gym or park or party. All of us feeling such an important people who have such a good lives... So maybe it is time to see other things as well? Meanwhile you are googling about party-someone is fighting for their freedom!
Let´s not ignore it, let´s speak about it, let´s show that we care, let´s support FREEDOM! Let´s show all the world that all of us speak the only one language - people union!
