Walk the street worked at European standards, driving a car made by European standards and complying with European rules regarding pollution. I eat fried potatoes are European standards and bite of bread made by European standards. Wear clothes and shoes made by European standards manufactured to European standards. Going to the supermarket belonging to Western companies and buy tomatoes and apples sizes falling in European scales.

My child looks only recommended movies by European laws, which comply with European standards and are broadcast at times recommended by European standards. The service work to the requirements of European standards. Evening listening to the TV show in which I talk about heroes who gave their lives to get rid of communist dictatorship, about martyrs who died for me today to be free.

My child is preparing for the exam and learn from the book by heart verbatim speeches Commissioner Mr. Jonathan Scheele, because all schoolchildren in Romania need to know the content of speeches Mr. Scheele Commissioner in Brussels.

So I sit in consort with the small screen and watch the news at 19.00 shaken that we see bodies drowned in blood and horrific traffic accident. And we rejoice that we are not those victims! See how to make mass arrests, as troops invaded people's homes as armed police and policemen in black uniforms, with faces covered rush and throw them down on tenants, summons him to stop moving. European streets were clashes between demonstrators and police. We see lightning, police raised the demonstrators made of hard rubber batons to European standards and we hear screams of horror and pain of victims under the blows of clubs and we rejoice that we are the ones who suffer.

Then eat one big mac and prepared according to European standards and laws while thinking about eating it with gratitude that I could never get such a delicious meal if Romania were the 1989 Revolution.

Then they see on television for the 38th time this year my favorite movie (not recommended to minors, because it contains scenes of violence) and a team of police a deadly fight with a group of pedophiles dehumanized. Then get ready for bed at three o'clock in the morning my wife and I have to sit in line at the pharmacy where we are subordinated and where we must take insulin, because we are both diabetic. There remain those who are not likely to die without insulin until the arrival of the next transport.

Insulin is more precious than gold, and queues in front of pharmacies spanning hundreds of meters, long before sunrise. There we remember out loud to each other how hard it was before the Communist dictatorship when suffering from hunger and cold and not having none, the dictator Ceausescu forbade us to enter churches to pray, he had to stand in line for milk and you could not go to work in the West to pick mushrooms or strawberries on Spanish and Italian employers' estates. We express our indignation over Bin Laden's terrorists and praise the efforts of President Basescu to integrate our country into the European Union and express our hope that all the choir criminal dictator Gaddafi will be judged for having pulled their people.

Before turning off the TV and go to bed, listening to the news every night about the danger of Russian and I write down somewhere that the next day at work, the first hour, should I introduce myself to inject the vaccine that we all required to do and that it strengthens our immune system and mobilizes us to work better. Sleep finally happy to be free and communism no longer exists.
