For the young nonconformist from Lushnja and his peers like him:
For the young nonconformist from Lushnja: botany teaches us that petals surround and protect the reproductive system of flowers…
For the young nonconformist from Lushnja, life teaches us that a rose has a temporary fragrance, but eternal thorns.
For the young nonconformist from Lushnja: etymology teaches us that the word “servile” derives from the Latin “servus” which means SLAVE…
For the young nonconformist from Lushnja: history teaches us that emperors and kings have always loved a courtyard filled with flowers, but not for their fragrance or beauty, simply to decorate the facade!
For the young nonconformist from Lushnja: philosophy teaches us that there is a big difference between idealism and political romanticism. Idealists challenge power, while romantics glorify it by comparing it to imaginary petals, planets, and suns.
To the young nonconformist from Lushnja: sociology teaches us that every regime needs young people who do not question, do not challenge, do not demand accountability, but only recite previously prepared verses in assemblies filled with people with lists and commanded applause.
To the young nonconformist from Lushnja: literature teaches us that every court has a group of rhapsodists who sing the praises of the leader, but history tells us that they end up singing/reciting to the next leader.
To the young nonconformist from Lushnja: economics teaches us that the political capital of a servile young man does not lie in merit, but in the ability to say what the boss wants to hear, with a smile.
For the young nonconformist from Lushnja: beyond all the metaphors with petals and planets, one question remains unanswered: what happens when the political sun sets and the rose withers?
…: and so that our curiosity does not fade, publish the acceptance certificates of SOME European universities that you have rejected?!
