Apologia
When I
recently told my two remaining and in America dwelling family members that I
was short on money and asked for a helping hand, both refused. When I told one
that the money was to guarantee myself a proper cremation, the question I got
was how much it cost. When I gave the internet address of the crematorium, I
was told the price could not be found, and, besides, the questioner knew too
little of the Latvijan language if the price had been found.
Needless to
say, I was pissed, but not surprised. I had long ago noted that the descendants
of WW2 refugees (the few remaining living ones, their spouses, and children) in
foreign lands came back to Latvija mostly to sell the properties of their
forebears and take the money back to their new domiciles—America, Australia,
Canada, or wherever. This is not to say that there are no exceptions (myself
including), but exceptions are rare and frowned upon by the post-Soviet
Latvijan government as reinvestment in Latvija implies medling in the post-Soviet
government policy of disappearing the country into A Politically Correct Greater
Federated European Union (APCGFEU, aka ‘a fig on you’) or potentially
disagreeing with neogovernment propaganda of hatred for Russia.
In any
case, I am saving money for my funeral myself and feeling much better for it. It
has put a crimp in my ability to help Daisy, but not entirely. Yesterday, for
example, I took her eldest son with me to Riga and we went to see a movie by
the name of “Gods
of Egypt”. The movie was the boy’s choice. The choice must have had the Yod
or finger of Osiris on it, as I found it interesting as well. For one, the
interests of a thirteen year old and an eighty-three year old coincided. The
movie was pure myth a la Holywood
(rapid action enhanced by seat shaking blasts from the Dolby sound system), and
the story about the pursuit of a dead love and bringing her back to Life from
he Underworld.
In the
movie the quest does not go unrewarded. Osiris (or whatever his name) regains
his eyesight, and his human companion is reunited with his lost love. As I
watched, I could not help thinking of Daisy, who is keeping from me that she
has found a new lover (no longer her cousin), but has grown confident enough in
herself to reach out for my hand to give me both reassurance and courage, the
latter which I sometimes fear I may have wasted and perhaps lost.
Still,
whether so intended from the beginning or not, as I was born to see it, history
is false flag waiting to be torn down.
