PROLOGUE.

At which point should I start writing about my past?

Should I write a few pages, or fill a bookshelf?

And why? Who is interested to know my past and me?

True, there were times when I was able to change the direction

of wind, but other times I just could not. All I can hope for,

that my turbulent past taught me to avoid today's pitfalls.

When I cried out for help, nobody listened, no friends, not any congregation, not even friendly nations. With their help, the direction of the killer wind might have changed. How many millions of people would be still alive today? They called their inaction: politics.

I hope, that my and millions of other people's history gave the world a lesson: to listen, hear and help, in order to avoid repetition of our misfortune.
