If you have some spare time kindly open your World History Book and search for Russian History. Two great leaders of USSR namely Lenin and Joseph Stalin will give you glimpse of what Russia is all about under these two leaders of Russian revolution. It might open up a glimpse of Dr. Zhivago's life and works in those crucial times. The movie Dr. Zhivago is a beautiful movie. I think there is also a book about it. I watched it twice when I first arrived here in Canada. Part of the novel may lead you to conclude Dr. Zhivago as Dr. Rizal. No illusions no gimmick. But it's okay if you would like to contradict. Too many writers would like to have a thorough research about Dr. Jose Rizal. The Germans, the Austrians, even the Japanese. They want to trace his genealogy. To them he is such a mystery. I myself is one of them trying to know more about this very mysterious man. Was he really a man or Jose was really Josephine.

I happened to watch an old, old movie. The story revolves about a woman, a heroine actually. Her story is exactly like the story of Rizal. She was excommunicated too and was executed. In the story she was actually a Jew (Jewish). Was divergent thinking already a trend in 19th century? We should ask Webster then. Nowadays web is the interconnecting web in the internet.

How's life in a garret? Do you know? When there is not much work because of economic recession your imagination runs wild and literary skills are being more emphasize. You always think of something that you don't have.

Have you observe autistic children? There are millions of them now. Too many of them that they don't listen to you anymore because you don't make sense to them.
