Life is a journey: Live it (Part 59)

The other autobiography
I added my View:” The biggest humanitarian crisis of the future for the next three to four generations to come is the empty Africa…for sure. Considering the law of history nothing ever stays the same but history always comes back in a different form and everything works circularly…the focus of today must be on an empty Africa of tomorrow. The political, economic and cultural strategies used by the USA, Europe, Russia, China, and India and others to keep Africa under their feet and control through means of old and new colonial masters' mechanisms will worsen the development. Unlike the dynastic thinking of the Arabs, democracy in Africa with a system of corruption imported by the Europeans, saw corruption and two-party politics as entertainment for the common African to always stay low. For Africans to liberate their minds and see how their elites misuse them for the benefit of private Swiss bank accounts is their elites' worst nightmare.”

“Only one thing they forget,” added Susanne Fröhlich laughing out loud.

“Which is?” I was curious to know.

“History can be delayed even derailed but…”, was her answer. She took a deep breath while looking around.

“Yes…but…what?”

“Never stopped. Sooner or later history will fight its way to righteousness. When you understand history is not a quick fix but a marathon of generations you will understand and agree."

“Very confusing,” Charles Darwin Jr said. “I don't get it “

Susanne Fröhlich laughing out loud said:” Only mature minds will know!” She sat down again while looking into the flames of the fire, grabbed behind her and threw dry branches into it. “Tell us another story, please.”

“Okay…let me think,” I looked into the flames to find an idea. I smiled while feeling the pain of the past. “ When I got the money from InBit I needed to decide fast on my future. My heart was with the Der Deutsche Michel which I wanted to use as the logo also for a Franchise company. My concept was to establish German shops globally like Turkish or Asian shops. In fact, later I got a
€ 10.000 reward from the ARD television Show ‘Was nun?’ hosted by presenter Hubertus Meyer-Burckhardt, whom I met in Arabella Park in Munich for the show where he declared me the winner of the month…”

“Please…oh, please…this becomes too complicated now. Stop for a second for us to understand,” said Susanne Fröhlich and looked for her pack of salted crisps. She looked around for her pink marshmallows too.

“I had submitted my business idea for a Franchise system…”

“....for German provisions stores around the globe…that's what we got already,” Susanne Fröhlich interrupted me, chewing on her pink marshmallows. Charles Darwin Jr asked her to pass the pack of salted crisps around.

“The show went on for thirteen months. In the months I submitted my business proposal five others had submitted theirs. In the months I had submitted my proposal the Maastricht treaty was about to be signed or rejected by the EU member states,” I felt like giving them another history lesson. “If rejected I would not have won the monthly competition. But history was at my side. I won! For the show, I was invited to Munich and lodged at Hotel Arabella. Before midnight I was asked to come to the park into a spacious tent they used for the show. They put something onto my face, asked me to sit on a funny high chair that I had to climb onto with three colourful balls to have a short interview with the presenter who gave me a cheque from Volksbank to cash in on my return to Hamburg.”
