Life / Advocating euthanasia routinely causes scandals in Poland... [63]

because a of patient's " widzimisie"

Really?Agony is "widzimisie" for you?

People were bestowed with free will by God.
Let`s be consequent and let them use it according to their wishes and needs.

I agree.I'm pro euthanasia

Euthanasia is an easy way out, it is too easy, instead of giving up people should try and fight on

I don't.I think they shoul do what they want.One way or the other.

I have seen somebody die.... and you may be surprised that this person didn't want just " switch" off, because this person had great courage and faith in God.

Great but what about ppl that want to be "switched off"?

News / Achievements of the Tusk's Polish government [532]

So? There is more children than kindergartens. Toddler minding will always be in high demand.

So?

So how come they were to

appease one of the many cliques which support them

when what they did was only "changing group" not producing more children?

The only reason they did it was to appease one of the many cliques which support them - teachers from ZNP! There is not enough children to keep those old geezers employed. So that make six years old go to school to improve teachers income.

You know that in kindergardens you also have teachers?Also that some of them are in ZNP?

how do you think little fellows will find themselves in such an environment

It won't be much harder for them then for their 7 yo friends.The essential thing is to make the shool enviroment friendlier for the little ones.

I was not able to write properly at the age of 6 - so aren't most children - what is the point of sending them to school??

The first year is supposed to be a mix of kindergarden and shool.And besides it's just geography-children had to learn since 6 yo and now the only change is that they will do it at school.Of course the main problem is to prepare shools for that.

News / Achievements of the Tusk's Polish government [532]

the whole idea is idiotic

No.it's not.

I went to school as a seven year old and I didn't miss anything in school

The fact that you went to school at seven is irrelevant.If human race always used this argument we wouldn't develop.

go to schools which are unprepared

That's sadly true.Some school are unprepared.But they will be.It's sad they didn't wait.

what did PO governmet do to alleviate those problems?

I'm not in education anymore but from what I know-nothing.

or maybe they did things to make the problems even graver

Again,from what I know-they did nothing to make the situation worse.

I will not be reading the whole thread to find out you views

I just don't want to repeat myself.

Were you among those scared during the PiS lead coalition rule?

Yes,I was.Not at the beginning but later.I was scared what's their next idea.

are you against the idea of school uniforms???

I think this issue is not as important as some ppl believe.Polish education has more serious problems.

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1080]

reminder of the eastern bloc?

No,because it's simply wrong.Poland is Central European country.I don't care if someone's calling Poland Eastern Europe as much as other posters here but it's simply not right.We are not Western or Eastern European country.Poland is mixture of these cultures.

P.S.Edited.
When someone reffers to Eastern Europe it usually has dregatory hint in it.As is the only valuable culture is in Western Europe.In the same manner some Europeans say words like "African","Asian".

I must say I'm really impressed with your arguments.You're close to making me change my mind.
And now for real.
Kondzior if you want ppl to care about ideas and freedom you need to secure they basic needs.Of corse ppl that have problems in life will be more interested in having food and shelter that freedom.You won't feed your children with freedom.

I still remember as if it were yesterday, how surprised I was when a nurse arrived at my wife's door 2 days after deleivering our baby.

They still does that.

I have realized I pity Homo Sapiens because he is born with damaged goods.

May be since we are not just homo sapiens we are homo sapiens sapiens but that concept evidently didn't stick to you in school?Stop insulting other posters and try to discuss.Who knows?Maybe you're going to find something interesting in exercising your brain?

There were good things in socialist Poland and we shouldn't reject everything just because it was created in that period.

Actually that part is the same.There were always children that went hungry to school and meals in school cantines look the same.At least in my town.

Nothing was better under communism.

More kindergardens and nurseries.More FREE after school activities.Corporation's holidays.Material safety.
I'm not saying that socialist times were good but there were good things about it.

Love / What are the best love poems in Polish to receive? [77]

I like this one:
Rozmowa liryczna
- Powiedz mi, jak mnie kochasz.

- Powiem.

- Więc?

- Kocham Cię w słońcu. I przy blasku świec.

Kocham Cię w kapeluszu i w berecie.

W wielkim wietrze na szosie i na koncercie.

W bzach i w brzozach, i w malinach, i w klonach.

I gdy śpisz. I gdy pracujesz skupiona.

I gdy jajko roztłukujesz ładnie -

nawet wtedy, gdy ci łyżka spadnie.

W taksówce. I w samochodzie. Bez wyjątku.

I na końcu ulicy. I na początku.

I gdy włosy grzebieniem rozdzielisz.

W niebezpieczeństwie. I na karuzeli.

W morzu. W górach. W kaloszach. I boso.

Dzisiaj. Wczoraj. I jutro. Dniem i nocą.

I wiosną, kiedy jaskółka przylata.

- A latem jak mnie kochasz?

- Jak treść lata.

- A jesienią, gdy chmurki i humorki?

- Nawet wtedy, gdy gubisz parasolki.

- A gdy zima posrebrzy ramy okien?

- Zimą kocham Cię jak wesoły ogień.

Blisko przy Twoim sercu. Koło niego.

A za oknami śnieg. Wrony na śniegu.

Poetic conversation

- Tell me how much you love me.
- I will.
- Well then?
- I love you in the sunlight. And in the candlelight.
I love you wearing a hat and a beret.
On a concert, in a sharp wind and on a highway.
Love you among lilys and birches, raspberries and maple.
And while you are asleep or working more than ample.
Even when while breaking an egg you drop your spoon -
it is anyway true that I love you.
In a taxi, in a car. Beyond all dispute.
At the beginning and at the end of a route.
And when you are styling your hair with a comb or a slide.
In danger. And on a merry-go-round ride.
By the sea. In the mountains. In boots. And barefoot.
Today. Yesterday. And tomorrow. Days and nights.
And in the spring with the first swallow.
- And in the summer what your love means?
- The same as means the summer.
- And in the autumn, cloudy and moody?
- It means all to me even when you lose your brolly.
- And when the frost silvers the windows?
- Then my love is as hot as fire.
I am close to your heart. Always nearby.
And there is snow behind the windows. And there are crows.

Food / What do non-Poles think about eating the following Polish foods? [1417]

Doesnt make it not antiquated and unhygienic though. ;)

I was getting ready to writte something like "what the hell are you talking about" when I spoted that you used semicolon.
The only thing that I hate in the fact that they eat it is that when my mother boils them whole house stinks.When she's already cooking them they smell real nice thought.
