Johnnie Walker Keeps Walking, But What About Our Leaders?
The known slogan of the Scottish famous brand Scotch Whisky "Johnnie Walker - Keep Walking" brought to my mind more then five different ideas that I would like to write about, but I decided to deal with the a political issue, a mental one.
When I click on the 'Explorer' I always try to guess what will my Israeli homepage show me on its top headlines column. Will it be another murder or a car accident, or will it be another terror attack?
I don't blame any of the world's leaders in causing any of those horrible routine headlines, and I won't say a bad word about them dealing with the world's problems (not this time anyway). But I am strongly desperate by this doomed epidemic among politicians of lack of faith.
Faith, hope and devotion, three extremely important key words that I believe can change this world. And if not change, maybe improve.
Many of us responds in disparagement to these three words, they are kitsch, little obsolete. Anyway, I think that we lost them, we lost our faith in many things, We, togather with our elected or not eected leaders, lost our honesty.
The technology and the crazy rythm of living a modern life made us feel that we've seen everything, but we didn't. We are not as smart as we think, we may come back and believe that things are reversible, that we should keep fight for justice and for preventing the deficiencies of this world.
Lots of our leaders lost the right way, they have a serious lack of faith, so all I'm trying to say is "Keep Walking".
I want my leaders keep doing their best to bring me what I want, what the public wants, and I think that many of us still believe in a better world.
Keep your faith with you, keep fighting for us and for the future.
