My first visit to a communist country and I must say that I
am impressed with the way the people have overcome their hardships experienced
during the war. They seem happy with their lot and nobody that I have met was
complaining. Of course we find the haves and have-nots but that we find
everywhere. The main thing is the people have found their identity and are
proud of whom they are. They seem to be very much aware of the fact that they
must survive as a group and therefore are nearer to the earth than we tend to
be. A lot of people seem to be making a living tilling the soil and working in
the rice paddies; a fact that is brought out in their food.
Everywhere we go I find people and places with a history we
know nothing about; in some cases the history is older and much more glorious
than our own. The land itself is ancient.
