18th of February 2012 - once and forever.

River Daugava 2012.
as you all may know, then i come from country that is up in the north, next to beautiful Baltic sea - Latvia. and for me it does not mean the territory I live in, but the culture, language and people who comes from there, well, of course also the beauty of nature and landscapes.

i actually have been born in times of soviet union, therefore in a "country" that do not exist anymore, as Latvian nation fought for independence and with staying strong in the right time, got it, I can luckily say, that I live in country named Latvia. Most amazing part of way to independence was a Baltic Way.

Lately due to politics, world economics Latvia may not been in the best by the monetary situation, neither politics, however as it was proved yesterday, Latvians still stand for their country, and not the money matters, neither we care as much about politics, all that matters most is the patriotism, that we still have it and prove when its most needed by protecting the culture, keeping the Latvian as the only national language. More about what I am talking about, check here.

Once and hope for very long time, the topic of another language interfering have ended.
Latvians, we have the power.
