Motherland
and Fatherland are two different words and as well , these words mean
something totally different to me. Motherland - that is my land - the
origin of everything - the land I carry in my heart .It is that piece
of ground where I grew up, where I felt the cold and snow in the winter
and enjoyed the sunshine during summertime. Motherland is the little area
I was able to discover on my journeys by foot as a child. In my memory,
motherland is the time of ripe strawberries, unguiltyness and innocence
, tolerance and peace. Everthing good I experienced as it only can be
given by a mother . Motherland lasts forever. Wise tribes always name
their land motherland. Fatherland is the counterpart of it all. A synonym
for death and destruction and abuse. Fatherland - the word - was created
by men, it produces soldiers. Fatherland destroys the environment for
profit?s sake. "For God and fatherland" just means someone wants to misuse
me. Fatherland is a demagogic suggestion. Only mother is certain, the
primary source of all things.
