In the world which quickly changes where technological development outruns dreams of it where change of geopolitical leaders comes nearer, stocks of minerals run low, and the planet population constantly grows. Struggle for a survival of the people only will become aggravated, migratory, financial and economic pressure of strong players will grow only.
In this world, in the center of Europe, on rich soils there is a state with catastrophically low level of efficiency — it can’t provide living level at all to the dying out to the population. It can’t be defined by years, what constitution, language, geopolitical orientation is necessary for it.
If the future is linear continuation of the present Ukraine and further is doomed to scarcity — to be suburb, object, a resource, a change. Everything, only not the Country.
Modern Ukrainian politicians are powerless something to change. They have created the poor present, and to these have proved the inability to create the great future. However not only they are guilty. Ukrainians, all of us have deserved that power and the country which it is had. Because the people without dream, as a bird wingless: it is capable to spoil only, instead of to fly.
What constrains our flight?
Yet late all to change. The dream of the future changes it. The dream is a powerful force which overcomes any power, changes mankind force before which obeys space and time.
For this purpose only it is necessary to find the obstacles which are getting in way to the light future, to treasured Ukraine. They are not on a surface — not in communism, liberalism, external factors or in absence of democracy. Absolutely isn’t present.
The ruin reasons have lain down much more deeply — at level of national character of Ukrainians, mentality, collective belief. Hence, to change the future it is possible, only having changed national collective consciousness of Ukrainians.
What collective belief deprive of Ukraine prospect, do dream impossible?
In our opinion, there are four of them.
Hopelessness of life
Ukrainians live one day. They don’t plan and don’t create the prospect.
At the time of the Kiev Russia Ukrainians have refused planning and future designing. Since that moment the Kiev state has stopped external expansion and development, but internal civil strife which has destroyed all has begun.
For what princes struggled? For own strategy for all Russia and the next people? No, they battled for the scanty instant purposes — for maximization of own influence.
The similar situation repeatedly repeated in the history of Ukraine. Ukrainians played tactics, without having long-term strategy.
Had no strategy of Bogdan Khmelnitskiy in 1648 when has stopped the victorious march to Warsaw and has returned to Kiev. In 1917 Central It is glad too didn’t know, that wanted in the future — autonomies or independence.
Unfortunately, in 1991 parents of the state independence of Ukraine too had no complete vision of the future. Therefore Ukraine can’t be defined till now neither with an electoral system, nor with reforms, with a state language.
In the conditions of absence of strategy, the social organism needs to react to changing instant irritants, circumstances and factors only. Therefore today’s reforms can cancel results yesterday’s the day after tomorrow to be again cancelled in new changing conditions.
The system is deprived the purpose. Efforts to achievement something in such system — are senseless, useless. They only spend social energy. The unique defensible social program in these conditions.
Ukrainians who don’t create the future, are doomed to be object of history.
To become the subject, the national Dream, ambitious strategy is necessary to Ukrainians. On a way to Dream each step gets sense.
Complex of a victim
The historical image of the Ukrainian people is an image of a victim.
From time immemorial we — a victim of Tatars, Jews, Bolsheviks, traitors, artful enemies, circumstances, plots and, at last, a hard lot poor…
By these ideas it is penetrated almost all creativity of the people which lives on the richest earth in Europe.
The national suffering became a cult, end in itself. The success and a victory aren’t necessary to Ukrainians, after all what to do with them further? It is much easier to lose, and then to complain.
The complex of a victim causes surprising patience of the Ukrainian people. Patience is a slow bringing of in a victim.
Unconsciously there is a question: how many people were in bloody struggle if the Ukrainian peasantry has hoisted revolt against the Bolshevist power?
The complex of a victim is closely connected with hopelessness. The victim never lives future because it doesn’t aspire to it. The victim lives the present, suffering of the present or the past, infinitely enduring the pain.
The victim is in a captivity of vanity, the ordinary. That the public resonance from any information on inutile political quarrel surpasses effect from program strategic publications testifies to it at least.
Today Ukraine already demands a world recognition of the suffering mission. It will allow to consume more than the international attention, support, the help. The role of a victim is a refined form of consumption.
For this reason the international image of Ukraine develops on Femine, Chernobyl, weight of the Soviet heritage, and also on young statehood, inexperienced democratic character etc.
It forces that EU, the USA IMF constantly to allocate to Ukraine money which settle in magnificent estates of the Kiev suburb. We already have almost got used to thought that the whole world should us.
Ukraine-victim in the world isn’t necessary to anybody
But psychologists have proved that the role of a victim grows out of a voluntary choice. Strength of mind allows to choose other role — the owner of destiny, the creator, to feel strongest than historical circumstances. Energy for this choice is given by Dream.
The strongest Dream, biger freedom for its achievement, stronger energy of national spirit.
Inferiority complex
One more fundamental defect is a low self-appraisal, an inferiority complex. However, his eyelids are hidden in an image of modesty.
However, despite advantages of Ukrainians, an inferiority complex didn’t allow us to feel self-sufficiency, to ripen for realization of the strategy.
This complex doesn’t allow to feel number one and we continue to play at the second number. Therefore always Ukrainians searched the senior partner and assistants in the name of Lithuanians, Poles, Russian, Crimean Tatars, Swedes or Germans.
At some instant our inferiority complex has amplified, when at our people have selected the right to be called as Russia, but have hung up a label of Malorossii and suburb. Though at the time of the hetman Vygovsky in the middle of a XVII-th century we identified ourselves with «Grand duchy Russian».
But also now, having found independence, Ukraine and didn’t feel capable to conduct the independent policy, and all time tries to lean against EU, the NATO, the USA, IMF or Russia.
Discharging of an inferiority complex demands change of national consciousness. There comes time to identify itself not with the past, and with the majestic future to which we are conducted by Dream.
Hatred matrix
Problem of Ukrainians is that they have learned to hate well — politicians, officials, bribe takers, tax specialists, enemies of Ukraine…
But actually we hate ourselves. For the complexes, weakness, destiny, history and the country, at last, — for scarcity of the aspirations.
And only then this hatred extends on all and on all round us. It finds the numerous projections in social dissociation, mutual suspiciousness, rudeness, egoism, absence of trust, respect and mutual aid, and also in set of other negative phenomena.
Fundamental principle of all these phenomena — hatred, or absence of love is simple.
Obviously, this article is read many by light, decent and loving people. Nevertheless, all of us — in a hatred matrix. Everyone faces it daily.
You have cursed in the underground? The SAI OFFICER demands a bribe? To you have built up a children’s playground in a court yard? Your taxes from the budget have plundered? Or simply you have staid two hours per a traffic jam because passed a train of the president?
People don’t love us. To us concern as cattle, a resource, electorate, the consumer.
To us aren’t glad in shop, us don’t respect in an office of the official. Each elections in authorities are constructed on hatred, and some experts already even start to speak about «hatred management» as a new direction of a political strategy.
Hatred can even be felt on a skin when you come from affable and pure European cities to Ukraine.
Hatred is a root of the majority of the Ukrainian problems. It is destructive, on it it is impossible to construct happiness, to reach the fine future.
The hatred society can’t bring up politicians who love the people. Any grain of progressive idea won’t be accepted on such social soil.
On a way to Dream it is necessary to leave a hatred matrix.
What for all it?
Against the general depressing picture it is a lot of Ukrainians even more often wonder — for what this penalty? What for to us disappointment, a pain, sufferings, poverty, intolerable living conditions?
Actually, the difficult way of Ukrainians, a way of tests is a unique experience which allows the people to begin to see clearly, understand many important things. It gives wisdom, tempers and opens doors to the future.
There is a good news. Realization the Dream Ukrainian already close, after all a way of tests of the Ukrainian people approaches the end.
