Well, I'm not sure about this.
Maybe yes, and maybe no. But, most likely, no. I think that the man, who
earnedenough money to rest all the residuary life ( ) ,
can allow himself to do what he really wants to do. I dislike working very
much.That's because I don't like doing everything related with necessity to me
to do something I don't agree with. The absolute majority of jobs cannot be
imaginedwithout such a necessity. So I'd like to earn much money, buy a good and
modern house not far away from the city and leave the work. What would I do?
Again,I'm not absolutely sure. Possibly I'd read classical and modern
literature, visit interesting exhibitions, travel in this country and abroad,
work inInternet and so on. There are a lot of intriguing activities which are
possible for those who have much free time and much money to spend
(waste). If I could only have three things
that worked by electricity, I'd choose a computer, an electrical cooker and aTV-
set. Why would I choose exactly these things? Because modern life, the life in
the beginning of the 3 millennium, cannot be imagined withoutabove-
named electrical appliances. A computer, if it has an Internet access, of
course, is the best way to communicate with people in this country and
abroad.New methods of electronic connections allow us to get info about events
worldwide, to write a letter to a friend, to buy any goods without standing
upfrom your chair and many other intriguing activities. So a computer is really
necessary device with a lot of possibilities. My second choice, an
electricalcooker, is also obligatory just because each man should eat some food
each day and restaurants or canteens are usually rather expensive. My last
option is aTV-set which is one of the best and, without doubt, the cheapest way
to rest and to get operative news and information. That was about 5
months ago, in the beginning of 1999. That time I had my first university
session and it wasn'tvery easy period for me. I wasn't ready to the exams and
only hoped for luck. The History of State and Law of Foreign Countries, which is
one of the mostdifficult subjects, was our 3 exam, but nevertheless
I wasn't able to prepare to it good enough. To get 4 or 5 it was necessary to
know texts ofLaws and Constitutions perfectly while I didn't know them at all.
My examination question concerned the Constitution of the 3
Republicin France. Absolutely not knowing the text, I attempted to dispute about
some aspects of the Constitution with our teacher Timur Petrovich. In the heat
ofthe fight he took the chrestomathy, opened the text and said me to read it –
just the thing I planned. After reading the text, I acknowledged my defeat,but,
of course, there was no any problem to answer the rest of question excellently.
As a result, I got 5. Fortunately,
I've never bought faulty things in shops. Therefore, I have nothing to tell you
about. But I want toremind you about a well-known and specifically Russian
problem. That is so called 'law nihilism'. It is expressed in the distrust of
the population to thebasic principles of Law. That means, for example, that
Russian people wouldn't go to the court if they have some claims to the shop or
manufacturer becausethey don't believe that court could solve their problems,
that it can help people in many different ways. Russians suppose often that Law
has been createdto protect the interests of the state or judicial persons, but
not their own rights. In the situation when any American goes to the court or
addresses toother officials practically all Russians wouldn't do anything. Even
an assumption of the possibility of court hearings causes negative
emotionalreaction in Russia. That's one of the most significant obstacles in the
process of developing modern market economy in this country as well as a major
judicialproblem. What is your choice: stability or risk? Would you
join perspective, but riskycompany or leave at your old
job? Establishing a new company is a considerable risk even in the
developed countries like the United States orGreat Britain. Founders can get
great profits or get into even greater debts. I think that you should think if
she really needs money or, may be, a quiet andstable life is more important for
her. Analysing both variants you should take into account the situation with
your family and children – if you are able toprovide them with all necessary
things and, which is often more important, with parent's care and love. You
shouldn't forget also about your present job –maybe there's the perspective of
promotion and (or) the rise of wages. From other point of view, old Russian
aphorism says: 'The person who doesn't risk,doesn't drink champagne' (i.e. no
risk, no profits). How much should children respect their
parents' religious beliefs? The religion has been and is an
integral part of our life. Independently of our wishes, it's one of the
mostsignificant institutions of the society and for many people it's something
sacred, something that is prohibited to intervene in, something that cannot
bedisturbed. On the other hand, present-day laws provide absolute religious
freedom, including the possibility of being an atheist. So, there's
acontradiction between the basics of religion and the statements of
laws. A universal solution of this problem isn't possible, I can only
propose that anyone who faces it should analyze whatis more important for
him/her – the parents beliefs or his/her own life. In any case you shouldn't
forget that insulting human's beliefs – religious or not –wouldn't result in
anything positive. Only calm and open-hearted discussion would help you to find
a right decision.
