I'm not a fan of history.
I believe that everything in our life is determined by our own environment, by people close to us or far from us, and not by events that happened a hundred or more years ago.
Even what Volodya Ulyanov did to all of us ... it's not a fact that without him it would be better.
There would be no Lenin, there would be another, maybe some Galin or Svetin, or at worst, Marfin. It is possible that as a result of the activity of one of them, we would all be swimming in chocolate, another option, we would not have existed at all, not the nation, but the whole of mankind.
A couple of months ago I had seen quite interesting serial film11.22.63. The owner of a small snack bar found a portal door through which he could get into the past. But this past was strictly limited by the time frame. He could only get into the 1960 year. Exactly three years before the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
Kennedy was an idol for millions of Americans, and his death became a universal tragedy. Well, almost like Brezhnev's death in the USSR. The school teacher Jake is given the opportunity to live three years in the past and prevent this murder. It would seem that it is not difficult. After all, it was already known who, when and how killed John F. Kennedy
In the end, I do not remember from what attempt, he manages to detain Lee Harvey Oswald and save the president.
When he returned again in our time, America was on the verge of total degradation and extinction .... So the development of the world and the States went on, despite the fact that Kennedy remained alive. We are not allowed to know who and how has influenced on our common history. Who will be forgotten who will remain only as a line in Wikipedia, and who will be remembered until the last minute of the life of our world, our planet will come.
All this long and tedious introduction was in fact, only by connecting to one significant event for our city: 0). Two days ago a monument to the Liverpool four was opened.
It was installed in the center of Vinnitsya in a small public garden near McDonald`s.
This is a gathering place for youth and previously unofficially it called Liverpool. I don`t know exactly where this name came from, there is only one version.
Once upon a time, fans of the group gathered here, played guitars, sang their songs. Now the name Liverpool officially fixed with large metal letters on the ground. The impression of the monument is twofold.
It's good that it is. But his incarnation, to put it mildly, did not impress me. I wanted and dreamed of seeing something, well, if not in bronze, then in the steampunk style of copper or another conventionally noble metal :0). And the Yellow Submarine, against which four immortal musicians are standing, is not my favorite song: 0).
Well, that is, that is. Probably there will be no other monument in the city.
Maybe, seriously, guitars will appear on liverpool again, we will hear madly melodic songs forever left in our hearts. This too shall pass…
It was written on the ring of King Solomon. He is certainly right as always. They will forget about them, well, except Wikipedia: 0).
But we remember that while we live ...
