In this grave hour, perhaps the most fateful in history, I send to every household of my peoples, both at home and overseas, this message, spoken with the same depth of feeling for each one of you as if I were able to cross your threshold and speak to you myself. For the second time in the lives of most of us, we are at war. Over and over again, we have tried to find a peaceful way out of the differences between ourselves and those who are now our enemies, but it has been in vain. We have been forced into a conflict, for which we are called, with our allies to meet the challenge of a principle which, if it were to prevail, would be fatal to any civilized order in the world. It is a principle which permits a state in the selfish pursuit of power to disregard its treaties and its solemn pledges, which sanctions the use of force or threat of force against the sovereignty and independence of other states. Such a principle, stripped of all disguise, is surely the mere primitive doctrine that might is right, and if this principle were established throughout the world, the freedom of our own country and of the whole British Commonwealth of nations would be in danger. But far more than this, the peoples of the world would be kept in bondage of fear, and all hopes of settled peace and of the security of justice and liberty among nations, would be ended. This is the ultimate issue which confronts us. For the sake of all we ourselves hold dear, and of the world order and peace, it is unthinkable that we should refuse to meet the challenge. It is to this high purpose that I now call my people at home and my people across the seas who will make our cause their own. I ask them to stand calm and firm and united in this time of trial. The task will be hard. If one and all we keep resolutely faithful to it, ready for whatever service or sacrifice it may demand, then with God’s help, we shall prevail. May He bless and keep us all. - See more at: http://www.breakingcopy.-vi***text#sthash.HjuJnkiB.dpuf

Suffice it to say I've got all my schnitzels together except for this. But rather than describe myself directly, I'll let you judge for yourself:Ramble on thought:I remember ages ago a friend who had just broken up with his gf of 4 years asking me how I could stand 5 minutes being single. At the time I'd never really thought about it. I'd always been single. The only negative thing I felt was a twinge of purposelessness from time to time.I kept a blog all through high-school and a few years into college for my own sake. It was my personal space for putting thoughts down on something more permanent than paper. I intended it to be written for anyone to see or to look back on myself years later, but it's strange that I never really expected anyone to comment on it, and I still don't know how widely it was read among my friends, or what their thoughts were reading it. Eventually I started posted every other week, then every other month and eventually stopped writing altogether. Looking back at the last 10 posts or so, I'm amazed at how clear my thinking had become. I would spend hours working on a single post just to solidify the thought in my mind as much as on the page. Since graduating with as many honors as an MS student can have (a paper and invitation to give a lecture at an international conference in my field) I'm being paid to think, and at the same time feel as if I've stopped thinking altogether. My supervisor told me yesterday as so many have before that he couldn't solve a differential equation to save his life. I'm now surrounded by adults 25 years or more my senior who continually assure me that I'm just a kid and that life is completely predictable from here on. I'm "Kiddo" now apparently.My purpose for thought seems to have changed from enlightenment to productivity, and I try to use my productivity to be happy, but when I was single the first time, enlightenment was the thing that made me happy.If you haven't noticed, I'm not the kind of guy you meet at a bar (not the one-liner type). I'm neither looking for someone like myself (because what would that add exactly) nor someone to save. I want someone to rediscover the world with, to go camping with (a fire and tent surrounded by the deep night as I recall), to be around to attend concerts with, to be happy with. I think we could plan to meet somewhere, but beyond that I dislike making plans for my free time when it can be avoided (my sister tells me I should move to Brasil ??). If we're hungry we eat, if the zoo's open we go there, but if we planned to do either we might miss everything in between. A first date should be mainly about us trading stories in a natural environment though.
