   There were little things off topic for Fyodor IliÄ   
    Dostoyevsky and Leo Tolstoy.   
      
   Interesting, the "Crime and Punishment" was actually my first notion of the   
   fact   
   that things are not without consequence if I escaped being caught in mischief.   
      
   Later I learned proverbs like my father's:   
   "You cannot do evil and hope for the good."   
      
   Or:   
      
   What goes around, comes around.   
   "Everything is returned, everything comes to a payment." from my mother's   
   favourite song.   
      
   Then I came to the point of being bitter and hateful because my parents did   
   not practice as they spake.   
      
   Then I became bitter because I could not either, blaming them for bad karmic   
   start position. Bhagavad Gita and the concept of karma were wisdom to   
   harlotries   
   and wanton cruel fun of the "grace of the Lady", a new enligtenment.   
      
   After realising that I could not possibly pay the karmic debt or make amends,   
   I turned back to undeserved Creator's kindness and benevolence.   
      
   In the end, the elements will be dissolved in fire and sulfur, and no   
   forcefield   
   or shield will save Russia or Ukraine alike, or Israel and Palestine alike.   
   It will be long forgotten who died defending Ukraine, and who died to get more   
   land from her.   
      
   The only thing that will remain is the account of our good deeds and evil done.   
      
   2 Peter 3:10   
   But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the   
   heavens   
   shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent   
   heat,   
   the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.   
      
   in LORD God Merciful, Longsuffering   
   Amen
