That’s exactly it. Help each other heal and grow.

Just need to find the puzzle piece that fits, and then two half broken pieces can grow into a strong unit.

Just needs empathy, respect and good communication. It’s work, but it’s possible if both sides are genuinely interested in making it work. Just do not be a self-centered asshole and don’t have such a person as a partner.

It seems like so many relationships these days are shallow decoration. If you can’t talk to your partner about everything and you are not at least best friends, why the fuck even bother ? If it’s not the person you can trust your life with, it’s not your partner, but a fuck buddy. Some people seem to have some misunderstanding here what a serious relationship is, or do not even want such a thing.

Only a strong and united Europe can successfully stand up against the bullies to the West and to the East.

Right populists might have tried to make it look different, but despite all it’s flaws all countries end up gaining more from the EU than they lose. Looks like many people in the UK were disappointed after effects of leaving kicked in and felt mislead by politicians who pushed the vote for leaving.

We certainly need to reform the EU to be faster, less bureaucratic, and so on, but this is the best we got right now and like democracy, it’s a shitty organisation but better than all existing alternatives, including not having it at all ;)

I never understood all the love for the US when I was younger, now as an adult with enough experience and cynicism it’s clear it’s all just very successful propaganda and the power of cultural hegemony.

Europe was sitting very comfortably in the matrix of the US soft power, and good profitable business has been done for and with the wealthy class. But because life of average Joe was still pretty good, this ass licking arrangement looked like a great deal.

Now the rules changed, and if we don’t get our shit together real quick, we are also pretty fucked.
