Violence is an action that begets violence as if violence survives for violence sake. The root cause of violence is, curiously, fear which is a maidservant of that very violence which we allow ourselves to be affected by. But isn't violence not only a hu'man behavior but that which Nature displays daily through the activities of change (think floods, earthquakes, hurricanes/cyclones, wild fires, drought, disease ... the list is long and the actions have been with all of Nature throughout the Universe on not only a daily occurrence but even constantly, consistently showing change which is easily equated with violent behavior..? As much as hu'manity dislikes and even fears violence, we have lived with it as participants in the "Play of Life" that all is and will forever be.... non-violence being the escape from the wheel of life that the wise of spoken of throughout our history.Arcadia wrote:"It seems it´s no easy to not get hooked in the model of "violent reactioning with indignation against violence" sometimes ..."

Por favor, amiga mia... may I help you with this difficult language of English in this paragraph? Gracias!
"...by an Spanish..." - mas mejor : " by a Spanish".. use "an" when the next word begins with vowel.Arcadia wrote:Today accidentally? I found myself watching in Canal Encuentro a documentary- entrevista to Milan Kundera by an Spanish journalist (it was filmed in black & white so it maybe be from the seventies ). First time I listened to Kundera talk, it catched my attention the visible emotion in his eyes at some moments, the french words and some things he said about the surrealism in Prague, the lyricism of Stalinism and the fascination that totalitarisms produce... Here´s the link but I doubt it works enough to see the documentary:
"...it catched my attention..." - should be "it caught my attention" which is the past tense of the verb "catch".
"... that totalitarisms produce..." mejor: "that totalitarianism produces..."
I'm sure my own Spanish is clumsy when I attempt to write to you, even with "Google Translate"... and I would appreciate any lesson you'd like to offer.

I was unable to see any video, even though I would like to.Arcadia wrote:http://www.encuentro.gob.ar/sitios/encu ... _id=120615
