Mai pe scurt aș vrea să vă povestesc unde am fost cu două prietene de-ale mele pe 10 februarie 2021, cu două zile înainte de ziua mea. A fost o experiență unică și frumoasă, o provocare pentru mine, precum și o relaxare mentală, un exercițiu fizic bun pentru sănătatea mea.De fapt, cu trei zile înainte prietena mea Raheema mi-a propus să merg cu ele să explorăm un nou teritoriu în care nu fusesem niciodată. Mi-a spus că vom merge 10 km și vom urca pe munte înalt. Mi-a plăcut această idee minunată. Am vrut să explorez această nouă locație. Și a fost un exercițiu bun pentru fizicul meu. M-am încurajat cu motivație pozitivă și multă adrenalină.Am fost de acord cu Raheema că va veni la mine ora 11:00, pentru că la ora 13:00 avea să ne întâlnim cu prietena noastră Marion. M-am echipat voluntar cu haine și încălțăminte potrivite pentru astfel de explorări ale noului teritoriu. Locul acesta era nou pentru mine. Poate că l-am văzut de multe ori, dar nu am fost niciodată acolo sus.A fost o zi frumoasă și răcoroasă, m-am bucurat pentru că am ieșit din casă. Am ajuns la locul prestabilit din Parcul Al Riyam, a trebuit să ajungem la Vechiul Muscat, acolo era destinația noastră.Acum, vreau să vă împărtășesc o parte din istoria acestei locuri și despre vestul istoric al Vechiul Muscat. Drumeția de la Riyam la Muttrah este o modalitate excelentă de a petrece o dimineață devreme sau o după-amiază mai târziu, dacă nu aveți prea mult timp de dedicat drumețiilor în Oman. Lansarea acestei excursii este ca și cum ai merge înapoi în timp, aproximativ 40 de ani, când vremurile erau mai simple.Prezentare generală: drumeție distractivă în zona capitalei, cu vederi minunate la mare și la Mina Sultan Qaboos. Timpul pentru drumeție este de două ore. Lungimea este de 3,49 km. Dificultatea este ușoară. Distanța de la Muscat 0 km.În partea de sus a urcării, pe măsură ce vă inspirați, veți obține niște vederi minunate ale parcului Riyam și ale Mării Oman. Dimineața și după-amiaza sunt mai bune pentru fotografie.Mai departe de-a lungul râului Riyam până la Muttrah (vechiul Muscat), o vizualizare privitoare la Mina Sultan Qaboos se concentrează pe măsură ce conducta diesel se îndreaptă spre dreapta. Îmi place mult acest punct de vedere. Nu este minunat pentru fotografie, dar vă oferă senzația de a privi în viitor din punct de vedere 1976. În 1976 nu exista niciun port comercial, nici un drum, nici un iaht gigant, ci doar un golf cu niște bărci de pescuit.Astăzi, Omanul este prosper cu drumuri, educație, electricitate, asistență medicală etc.Nu mai este nevoie să sculptați pași în pietre pentru a ajunge de la punctul A la punctul B pe dealuri, și traseul pe care vă aflați, odată folosit ca o cale principală, dar acum este abandonat.Îmi place să încep la Riyam Park drumeție spre Muttrah, astfel încât să pot lua un suc în Muttrah când termin, dar cu siguranță puteți călători invers. Pista este formată ca o buclă pentru a vă ajuta să vă întoarceți la vehicul odată ce ați ieșit din nou pe stradă în Muttrah. Primul obstacol de pe drumeția Riyam și Muttrah este o scară și te transportă instantaneu înapoi în 1976, într-o perioadă în care nu exista niciun drum între Muttrah și Muscat. Imaginați-vă că urcați aceste trepte de-a lungul traseelor cu caprele pe care le intenționați să le vindeți la Muttrah Souq. Aceasta ar fi o vedere obișnuită de-a lungul acestei căi.Traseul coboară acum într-un vale unde rămâne un sat abandonat, dar unor excursioniști le este greu să-și găsească drumul în acest moment. Fiți în căutarea marcajelor naționale de traseu pictate pe parcurs sau mai bine, încărcați traseul de drumeții Riyam-Muttrah furnizat mai jos pe GPS sau pe telefonul inteligent pentru a vă corela dacă sunteți pe drumul cel bun sau nu. Personal, nu găsesc nici o problemă în calea mea, dar înțeleg că nu toată lumea este un excursionist cu experiență.Nu există multe lucruri de văzut în satul abandonat, doar niște ziduri căzute, dar aici este un copac frumos și umbros. Un loc minunat pentru a vă opri și a vă răcori, chiar și pentru a lua prânzul la picnic în mijlocul naturii. Bonusul acestui sat fiind inaccesibil cu mașina este că este lipsit de cantități mari de gunoi. Deci, vă rugăm să vă asigurați că vă duceți coșul de gunoi înapoi.Ultima porțiune de alergare Riyam -Muttrah a gândit o vale strânsă și stâncoasă. Ultima călătorie a fost chiar după câteva ploi și a fost mult mai multă apă stând decât era de așteptat, așa că cu siguranță m-am bucurat că am decis să-mi port cizmele impermeabile. Valea mătură la stângă și la dreapta, cu ziduri înalte, gândiți-vă de două ori înainte de a intra în această vale, dacă este posibilă după ploaie.Drumeția Riyam-Muttrah se termină la cimitir, unde sunt îngropați toți drumeții care nu și-au putut găsi drumul. Sunt amabilă, dar mă simt un pic ciudat, fiind direct la cimitir, de parcă aș jigni gazdele mele omane. Dar, pe de altă parte, excursia de la Riyam la Muttrah este întreținută de Ministerul Turismului și, dacă nu ar vrea să se plimbe la cimitir, ar fi făcut ceva diferit față de traseu.Deci, așa cred. Am lăsat mașina lângă moschee unde ne-am rugat și am urcat scările muntelui. A fost un exercițiu foarte bun pentru mine, atât fizic, cât și pentru cea psihologică. Urcarea pe munte a fost dificilă pentru mine la început, dar apoi urcarea și coborârea a fost foarte ușoare și interesante. Am făcut atât de multe fotografii frunmoase, pentru amintiri și pentru o încărcare energetică pozitivă pentru a vă împărtăși această frumoasă experiență.Când am urcat scările muntelui, orașul arăta foarte frumos de sus. Doar urcarea a fost foarte obositoare și apoi coborârea a fost foarte ușoară. Noi imagini frumoase ale piesajelor s-au deschis în fața noastră.În timp ce mergeam înainte, s-a deschis o priveliște fumoasă asupra munților și văilor montane. Am ajuns la o cotitură în care a trebuit să virăm la stânga spre Vechiul Muscat, dar în dreapta am putut vedea Vechiul Bazar, vederea era de nedescris.Mai jos era o vale alcătuită din stânci și munți stâncoși care lăsa forme nemaivăzute. Prietenele mele au avut o idee nebună de a explora mai mult pentru a lua o altă cale care este mai umană.Dar le-am spus că este prea târziu să exploreze ceva nou. În cele din urmă, am fost convinse de ele și am urcat pe un traseu mai greu, care în cele din urmă ne-a lăsat avariați, lăsând altă dată, motivând că nu a fost momentul în favoarea noastră. Nu am vrut să fim la munte noaptea pentru că este periculos.
Trebuie să faci o astfel de aventură dimineața pentru a nu fi prins în munți noaptea, este periculos să nu te rănești. Și apoi am luat traseul marcat de excursioniști ca nimeni altul. În fața noastră s-au deschis noi orizonturi, noi imagini de nedescris, coborând prin șanțuri stâncoase pentru a urca apoi pe un munte înalt. Dar, mai presus de toate, am fost fascinantă de liniștea locului și de ciripitul păsărilor.Coborând prin niște cărări greu de coborât după ce urcăm în sus. Dar imagini frumoase și provocatoare se deschideau în fața noastră. Mă confruntam cu aceasta experiență interesantă. Am ajuns la un punct culminat, unde am luat prânzul chiar în mijlocul naturii. Am uitat să spun că am luat cu mine o sticlă de apă potabilă, niște fructe și prânzul consistent pe care l-am luat acolo. Apoi am urcat pe un munte înalt și am coborât la o vale de pietre și stânci muntoase. Coborârea a fost mult mai ușoară.Am dat peste o potecă care ducea la o vale plină de pietre de munte. Fetele au avut ideea de a bea cafea, dar timpul nu ne-a permis, pentru că au vrut să mergem mai departe. Am decis să ne urmăm calea. În fața noastră era vechiul sat Muscat. În dreapta puteți vedea vechile case nelocuibile, care au fost demult demolate de om și de natură.M-am încărcat cu energie pozitivă văzând acele locuri de nedescris și m-am bucurat că am avut o experiență de neuitat. Nu m-am simțit deloc obosită. Vroiam în continuare să bem o cafea și ceva energizant. Am intrat în vechiul sat, ne-am rătăcit prin vechiul sat până am ajuns la vechiul cimitir.Mi-a plăcut istoria acelui loc. Peisajul natural al locului și al satului m-a fascinat, greu de descris. Dar mi-am păstrat emoțiile pentru a le expune pe blog. În sat erau trei cimitire, două cimitire mai vechi și altul mai nou. Dar a fost mare mirare să-l vad pe cel mai vechi cimitir într-o vale la câțiva km de sat.
Datorită dimensiunii cimitirului vă puteți da seama cât de vechi este satul. Am luat ceva energizant pentru a avea puterea și energia pentru a continua călătoria.Ne-am pierdut puțin prin sat, era deja aproape seara și am luat către o vale greșită unde duce în mijlocul munților. Am trecut pe lângă un cimitir foarte vechi, care avea loc unde se spală morți înainte de-a fi îngropați.Valea aceea era făcută din apă de ploaie. Adâncă, stâncoasă și periculoasă. La o mică greșeală puteai să te rănești rău de tot. Avansam în mijlocul văii și continuând nu am ajuns la ieșire. Aceea vale era un labirint ce puteai să te pierzi ușor dacă nu te orientai pe unde mergi.Afară se întunecase încet, intraeem și era o neliniște de nedescris, un lucru pe care îl simțeam că trebuie să ieșim urgent din acel periculos și în același timp misterios. Nu aveam lumina la noi, doar cu telefoanele mobile, nu ne oferea o lumina puternică, astfel încât să putem ieși de acolo.
La ieșirea din acea vale, prietena mea Raheema a vorbit cu doi localnici, spunâdu-i că locul are o energie negativă. Există ființe supranaturale(Jinni) și am simțit ceva inexplicabil.Și am fost foarte fericită că am ieșit din acel loc. Afară era seară. Am mers în centrul satului pentru a lua un taxi și de acolo la mașina noastră unde am lăsat-o.Fetele în timp ce ne îndreptam către taxi și-au dat seama că s-au dus la o altă Vale, nu era acel loc în care intenționau să meargă. Dar mă bucur că am ieșit din Valea Tulburată.Și am ajuns la mașina noastră obosite, dar fericite. Marios a plecat și ne-am continuat timpul de rugăciune, apoi ne-am dus fiecare la casele noastre. A fost o zi plină de energie pozitivă, dar și plină de aventuri explorând locuri de nedescris.
A fost o zi pe care nu o voi uita niciodată. Mulțumesc lui Dumnezeu pentru acea zi minunată din viața mea!Va voi da unul din sfaturile mele, dacă veți merge într-un loc atât de frumos cu prietenii sau familia. Pentru astfel de călătorie trebuie să mergeți devreme pentru a evita căldura. Trebuie să aveți alături 1.5 litri de apă de persoană, iar gustările, fructele precum banana, mărul sau mandarinele, ușor de întreținut.A purta ghete sau pantofi sport care sunt buni pentru pietre și stânci stâncoase. Și nu uitați să folosiți o pălărie și ochelari pentru protecția solară. Și ultimul lucru să aduceți bani cu tine pentru un suc, un ceai sau cafea sau altceva. Vreau să vă împărtășesc acest sfat cu voi.Scris de Bogus Elena
"Scriitorul adevarat este un om singur.Şi, pe masură ce creşte în ochii celorlalţi, se confundă tot mai mult în sigurătate. Iar dacă este suficient de bun,în fiecare zi este nevoit să se confrunte cu eternitatea sau cu absenţa ei. Pentru un scriitor adevărat,fiecare carte este un nou început, o nouă încercare de a atinge ceva care rămâne mereu de neatins.Misiunea lui este de a merge pe căi ce n-au mai fost umblate sau de a izbuti acolo unde alţii au dat greş...."

Mountain Adventure
Now, I want to share with you part of the history about this places. The Riyam to Muttrah hike is a great way to spend an early morning or later afternoon if you don't have too much time to devote to hiking in Oman. Embarking on this hike is like going back in time, about 40 years, when times were simpler.
When we climbed the mountain stairs, the city looked very nice from above. Only the ascent was very tiring and then the descent was very easy. New beautiful images of the landscapes opened up in front of us. As we walked forward, a beautiful view of the mountains and mountain valleys opened up.
I was coping with this interesting experience. I reached a high point I had lunch right in the middle of nature. I forgot to say that I took a bottle of drinking water with me, some fruit and the hearty lunch I had there. Then I climbed a high mountain and the descended to a Wadi of rocks and stones. The descent was much easier.
We got lost a bit in the village, it was already close to evening, and we took a wrong Wadi where it leads into middle of the mountains. We passed a very old cemetery, which had the place where you washed the dead. That valley was made of rainwater. Deep and rocky and dangerous.

Recenzie de carte: John C. Maxwell „Toată lumea comunică puțini conectați”. Ce fac diferit cei mai eficienți oameni "
21 februarie 2021
Book Review : John C. Maxwell " Everyone Communicates Few Connect ". What the Most Effective People Do Differently"
Book Review : John C. Maxwell " Everyone
Communicates Few Connect ". What
the Most Effective People Do Differently"
I want to recommend you an interesting book that will
help you discover yourself, but also connect with yourself and those around
you.
When I started reading this book, I understood one thing.
First of all you have to have a connection with yourself then you have to have
a connection with God, and last but not least you have to have a connection
with those around you. But that's what I'll talk about at the end.
The first connection is to know yourself, to know your
dreams, to respect yourself, to love yourself, to let your dreams come true.
Forgive yourself, be better with yourself.
You need to know yourself and see what you like. Listen to
the soul and the heart, more precisely the intuition.
A second connection is the connection with God. It is the
most important relationship in your life. He is our creator, he protects us,
loves us and accepts us as we are. He is everything, he gives us everything,
life, health and death. One day he will judge us by our deeds.
And finally there
is the connection with those around us, family, friends, co-workers and large
groups of people. Here I will talk in more detail. It's something to talk
about. It is a book that you can discover yourself and others around us.
It made me understand better than to connect with others
you have to learn to connect with yourself.
If you want to be successful, you need to learn how to
really communicate with others.
What’s secret? Connecting! If you want to succeed, you
must learn how to connect with others. Connecting is key. If you want to have
an advantage in working with people, you need to learn to connect!
I am convinced
that I can help you to learn to connect with people. The book will teach you
the 5 principles that are functional for
understanding how to connect with people. And the second part, you will
learn five practices that anyone can do to connect with others regardless of
age, experience or natural ability. Learning
to connect with the people can change your life.
If you want to be effective in any area of life, connecting with people, you can
learn to become even better at it. And if you haven’t previously tried with others, you will be astounded by how it can change your life.
Important to start with your attitude. The ability to
connect with others begins with understanding
the value of people.
I needed more than courage to change things –I needed
connecting skills. No matter what your goals are, connecting can help you.
Connecting with
others may not be a matter of life or
death for most of us, but it often is a
matter of success or failure. I think the further along in life we get, the more aware we become of the
importance of connecting with the others. People are eager to connect with
others, and most will do anything they can to feel connected.
If you want to have an advantage in working with the
people, you need to learn to connect.
There is first steps to help you to learn the principles
behind connecting with others:
By focusing on others;
Expanding your connecting vocabulary just words;
Marshalling your energy for connecting;
Gaining insight in how great connectors connect;
Then You will help you acquire the practical skills of
connection:
Finding common
ground
Making your communication simple;
Capturing people’s interest
Inspiring them, and being authentic.
These are things anyone can learn to do.
Connecting is the ability to identify with the people and
relate to them in a way that increase
your influence with them. The number one criteria for advancement and promotion for professionals is an ability to communicate
effectively.
If you concentrated
on two areas: learning to write
and to speak before an audience. Nothing
in life is more important than the ability to communicate effectively. Talent isn’t enough. Experience isn’t enough
to lead others, you must to be able to communicate well,
and connecting is key.
Of course, connecting isn’t just for leaders. It is for
anyone who desires to be more effective at what he or she does or enjoy better
relationship. When you connected with others, you positions yourself to make
most of your skills and talents.
God grant us the serenity to accept the things we can
not change, courage to change the things
we can, and wisdom to know the difference. There were things I
could change but didn’t know how to change. To communicate effectively and to
lead others, you have to take
initiative. You have to be proactive.
This is someone who understands success . I like him. But
there’s more to it than that he really understands me. He knows what I believe.
Understands what I’m thinking. He knows what I feel. He can help me. I would
love to be his friend. I already feel like
he’s my friend. I was trying to
go ahead by correcting others when I should have been trying to connect with others.
Connecting is never about me. It’s about the person with
whom I’m communicating. You are trying
to connect with the people, it’s not about you, it’s about them. Maturity is
the ability to see and act on behalf of
others. Immature people don’t see things from someone else point of view. They rarely
concern themselves with what’s best for others. In many
ways, they act like small children. We recognize that part of the parenting process is helping
children understand that they are not
the center of the universe .
I can tell a lot of about this book, but I prefer to
leave you to discover this interesting book which I recommended for you to read it. You will find things which
you will learn to connect with people and with yourself.
Now, I want to tell you my conclusion about this book,
what can you do with the talent you have ? Whatever is in you can be put to better use
if you learn to connect with the
people. You can learn to increase your
influence in every situation because
connecting is more skill than
natural talent. And you can learn
to do it. So start to taking steps. Embrace the connecting principles. Start using the connecting practices. And do something positive in your corner of the world.
World renowned leadership expert and bestselling author
John. C. Maxwell says if you want to be an effective leader, you must to learn
how to connect with the people. While it may seem like some folks are just born
with a commanding presence that draws people in the fact is anyone can learn to
communicate in ways that consistently build powerful connections.
Everyone Communicates, Few Connect, helps you succeed by revealing Maxwell’s
Five Principles and Five Practices to develop this crucial skill of connecting, including:
finding common ground, keeping your communication
simple, capturing people’s interest, inspiring people, and staying authentic in
all your relationships. Your ability to achieve results in any organization be
it a company, church, nonprofit, or even in your family is directly tied to the
leadership skills in your toolbox. Connecting is an easy to learn skill you can apply today in your personal,
and family to start living your best life.

A cup of water at the nursing home - the end of the dramatic text.
While the guests were inside, what was supposed to be happening was happening outside. One by one, all the elders went out to the asylum, only one Santa Claus was missing. It was announced, but he didn't notice what the elders wanted to do. He felt that what they were doing was pointless. No one will notice, the old man thought in his room.
Each old man had a placard: What did Thieves write outside the asylum !! He has nothing to do with criminals and thieves in our asylum.
After the elders all left, Elizaveta Ivanovna was left alone. He was preparing his placard, and suddenly he saw an envelope under the door. Inside was an anonymous letter, but on the envelope with her name on it. Nobody opened the door. Close the door, open the envelope. It was a letter, the message was addressed to her. The content of the message sounds like this: I'm with you, move on with what you started. Today we will expose thieves and criminals. The evidence is against them. Respectfully An old man!
Elizaveta Ivanovna was wondering who could send this message. Who knows what they are going to do? Who is this old man? Maybe Santa Claus, who? I don't know anyone who is against Sofia N and Vera Alexandrovna. When he read the letter again, he calmed down a little. She was glad she was supported and had evidence.
An old man came and called her out. She expressed relief and satisfaction on her face.
The old man: Come on, Elizaveta Ivanovna! That we have already organized, everything is ready! We are no longer waiting for you!
Elizaveta Ivanovna: Yes! Let's go! We must be ready to protest !!
The two came out confident in their own strength to fight for truth and justice.
Suddenly the group started shouting at the sight of the guests and the 2 women who came out on the terrace of the asylum.
The elders shouted loudly to be heard even better. Raise the placards. These give them even more power to move on.
The voice of the old protesters.
Thieves! Thieves !! Thieves! Out of charlatans, criminals. Thieves! With the two of you out, for stealing from us, for wanting to kick us out !! Out with you !! Outside!
One was in unison, everyone was shouting. They were all together, they were a team. At that time, the elders were a team to support each other. Together they felt a power, a force, which gave them an impulse to move on.
Thieves !! Thieves !! Criminals! Out with you. We don't need thieves in the asylum! To get us out of the asylum. This is our house, we pay from our humble pension to live here. Outside!! Outside!! The elders shouted with all their might.
While the elders shouted.
Mr. Filipescu: Sofia N, why are the old people shouting? Those with this protest? Since I've known myself, I've never seen anything like it? Sofia N, what's going on here? Who wants to fire them? Who steals the money, who are the criminals?
Sofia N didn't know what to say. Suddenly she doesn't want to be emotionally blackmailed. He's doing it wrong.
Sofia N: I don't know what old people want either. I don't understand what's happening to them either. The whole week went by normally and quietly, and now suddenly it was as if someone had bitten them. Some crazy fly. I don't understand what's with them? What happened to them? Let me talk to them now?
At one point Sofia N shouted at them. Trying to calm them down to find out what's going on and why they're protesting ?!
Sofia N: What's going on here?
The noisy crowd booed Sofia Nikolaevna.
Sofia N: Those of you, don't you understand? You don't see that we have guests. Finish and enter the asylum immediately. Don't be ashamed that you have reached old age and are making noise and agitation. What do you want once? (with an authoritative voice)
The agitated crowd protesting even louder is not noticing. The focus was on the guests.
Sofia Nicolaevna, ignoring the crowd, did not pay attention to them. Speaking in the direction of Mr. Filipescu.
Sofia N: Mr. Filipescu, don't pay attention to them, they have already reached that age when old people get senile in their heads, they have sclerosis completely forgotten. Don't you pay attention to them ?! I'm telling you, there's no problem here, no murders have been committed, and I'm not going to fire them. It was misunderstood.
(Sofia N, says to the audience) Let the bastards show me to you when they leave. What do you want to kick me out of? Never, never hear. Nobody kicks Sofia N. You bastards, too, let me show you. Humble me like this. Don't let these bastards go, and I'll show you.
I'm starving you for a week to teach you mind with Sofia N not to wear. That you will not have a peaceful old age.
Mr. Filipescu: Sofia N, I think they have a reason to protest, don't you think ?! They certainly didn't come out in front of us for the sake of protesting.
He's doing the stupid thing.
Sofia N: I don't think they would have reason to shout and protest, we just give them good conditions and they are dissatisfied.
Gavriluţă: I don't think they came out for the sake of protesting either, I agree with Mr. Filipescu ?!
Sofia N: What do you know Gavriluţă?
Gavriluţă was silent, looked at Mr. Filipescu and agreed that he should be silent.
Sofia Nikolaevna was even angrier with the old people, she couldn't stand it anymore when she saw that the whole plan was going on Saturday's water.
Elders continued to protest.
Down with the Thieves !! Down with the Thieves !! Down with the Thieves !! Out with you thieves, you steal our food and treat us like garbage. Out with you !!
Scene 5
While the elders were protesting, Elizaveta Ivanova asked an old man next to her what she was protesting out loud.
Elizaveta Ivanovna asked the old man.
Elizaveta Ivanovna: I don't see Santa Nichifor, do you know where he is ?!
The old man: He's in his room. Did not come!
Elizaveta Ivanovna: Why?
Old man: I don't know. I called him out to protest. But he did not want to come.
Elizaveta Ivanovna: What was the motivation for not wanting to come? He told you.
The old man: But he didn't say anything. He was silent! I saw he didn't answer me. Then I left him and left the room. I saw he didn't really want to talk.
Elizabeth I: Good to leave him in the Lord's reward !! Maybe he'll get out of his room somehow. When he sees old people protesting.
Elizaveta Ivanovna, less interested in Santa Claus why he didn't come out, was thinking about the letter he had received. Who sent me this letter? Who knows the truth about Sofia N and Vera Alexandrovna?
Elders protested, placards up, shouting loudly.
Thieves downstairs, Criminals !! Out with you !! You are stealing and humiliating us !!
Suddenly Mr. Filipescu intervenes.
Mr. Filipescu: I would like to see what is happening here? What happens here? Let me ask Sofia N what's going on here?
Sofia N: Well, I'll let you talk to them! But I tell you, everything they tell you is true lies! They are old and their roof has already flown.
Mr. Filipescu: Don't you mind talking to them?
Sofia N: Goodbye, Mr. Filipescu!
But I keep telling you that he's going to tell you lies and nonsense. I don't understand where they got this from. I don't believe a word in their words. What I say.
Sofia N, she's still trying to keep yours. Don't let yourself be overwhelmed by what happens at the asylum. Confident that it will still work out. Nobody found out what was happening at the asylum. Only two people know about the illegalities she committed. Her mother and Vera Alexandrovna. He trusted the two women completely. That's why he wasn't afraid. I hope that everything will be resolved soon, and he will return to a normal path.
Suddenly Mr. Filipescu motioned for the elders to calm down.
Mr. Filipescu: Calm down, I want to talk to you? I would like to know what happened?
After hearing Mr. Filipescu, the old people calm down. He took the floor
The old men all once began to speak, it was not clear what they were talking about. Everyone was talking out loud, it was a big mess.
Mr. Filipescu: Stop, I don't understand you. Let one speak. To get along. Then Elizaveta Ivanovna made one of the old protesters speak.
An old man: Well, what to do. We are dissatisfied with Sofia N and Vera Alexandrovna. We protest that the two women want to kick us out, and we have heard from someone that they are stealing our money and from our food that we receive from people who believe in God.
I want them to get out of here. We can no longer stand the insensitivity and impudence they have for us. They are bad and they humiliate us. As much as possible one like this.
Find out that you come to us for inspection and we were very happy that you will help us. I know no one believes us.
Suddenly, Sofia N, when she hears what the old people said, jumps at them. He does them all the way and offends them.
Sofia N: You are not ashamed to walk with a lie, you fools. We give you everything and you reward us like this. You are real liars. How can you go out and humiliate us like this in front of the guests. Liars, undead. Mouth, shut up for once. You are not ashamed to fall down in old age.
The group of protesters at the hearing of Sofia N began to boo, to shout at her, to do it in every way.
Vera Al began to defend herself from the cries and accusations of the elders.
Vera Al: Lies. You are real liars, he shouts to the elders.
Sofia N calms V.A., telling her that she will solve this whole mess.
Mr. Filipescu: Calm down! Can't believe what I'm hearing from you ?! I didn't think something like this could happen. But to witness such a thing ?! He tells Sofia N.
Suddenly Sofia N was nervous and irritated. He didn't calm down one by two. Even louder in the elderly.
Sofia N: You have evidence against me. If you're still wrongfully accusing me. Do you need proof ?! Do you have evidence? He asks the elders.
The group looked at each other in astonishment. She suddenly looked at Elizaveta Ivanovna.
Elizaveta Ivanovna, so as not to give up and not to carry out the plan of the ravine. In front of those on the terrace, with a lot of confidence and courage. He had the courage to face Sofia Nikolaevna
Elizaveta Ivanovna: We have evidence. How do you think we can go out, protest against you without evidence!
Sofia N: Where is your evidence? Let's see them! I'm really curious what lies you're going to tell now?
Elizaveta Ivanovna: We are waiting for the evidence to come. But he's not coming. But we have, they exist.
Sofia N: You have no evidence, if you had then you have been showing it to me for a long time. I don't believe in you either. You are liars. I'll let you show me after this masquerade is over (reply in front of the viewers)
Sofia N: They tell lies, they have no evidence (in Filipescu's direction).
If you had evidence, show me. Let me see!! To convince me you're not lying.
Sofia N shouted at the old protesters.
Mr. Filipescu: Wait Sofia N, if they said they had evidence. Calm down, let's wait for the evidence to come. Just not the right to make unfounded accusations. I want to wait for the evidence I'm talking about.
Sofia N, says nothing more, complies with what Mr. Filipescu said.
Sofia N: If you say Mr. Filipescu, then let's wait. But I say we're waiting in vain. That they have no evidence, they are liars. I tell you once again that they have no evidence (laughs ironically) Where to have evidence. Who can have evidence ?!
Elders protested and shouted loudly.
Thieves, criminals, out with you !! We don't want you here. Eat our money and our food given by the government and bought with the money of big-hearted people.
Mr. Filipescu: Who is that person?
Elizaveta Ivanovna: It's Santa Nichifor, we're waiting for him to come out.
Mr. Filipescu: But where is this old men?
Elizaveta Ivanovna: We are waiting for him to come!
Elizaveta Ivanovna breathed a sigh of relief, rejoicing in herself that she was still running out of time. He was waiting for that anonymous person who sent him the letter. Did she think who she was? Is it really Santa Nichifor? I do not think?! I wouldn't believe he was capable of anything. He rejoiced even more in himself that he was misleading Sofia N. He was playing a play in front of those present at the protest, especially Sofia N. He just hated her even more. But at the same time he felt pity for her.
Ah! Yes! Why didn't he go out to protest like everyone else? He was just called out! I do not understand!! Sounds suspicious to me. Let him be the person with the evidence. Am I wrong ?! I'm curious to see who that person is. Let's wait!
Sofia N when she hears that Santa Nichifor stole all her files is even angrier. Can't believe that Santa is making me something like this ?! It was not in vain that I wanted to fire him. Let him see from me. When do I see him? Don't let it get in my way that I make his bitter days and life a torment.
I didn't expect him to come in and steal my files. Now I have to apologize to my mother for wrongfully accusing her of stealing the files.
In front of the crowd to shoot even louder, at the recommendations of Eliyaveta Ivanovna, shouted even louder. Elizabeth Ivanovna knew that all hope was in that mysterious person, of whom she knew nothing. And she wanted to come sooner so she wouldn't be humiliated by Sofia N.
The crowd did not stop shouting louder.
Sofia N and Vera Al stepped aside and talked to each other. Let no one hear what they are talking about. Mr. Filipescu stepped aside with Gavriluţă to discuss.
Vera A: What do we do Sofia N?
Sofia N: Nothing, Really! They have no evidence against us.
Vera Al: Did you hear that Santa N rose up against us?
Sofia N: Really! I can't believe someone is rising up against us !!
But you know Vera, I had good reason to fire him! Now I know what I have to do. Don't let the Commission go.
Vera Al: What about Sofia N's evidence? Santa Nichifor must come and show us the evidence.
Sofia N: What evidence is Vero? You don't see that they don't have evidence. (Laughs ironically under his nose). I only tell lies.
Vera A: But who stole our file, with everything we stole and the crime we committed?
Sofia N: Look, this worries me the most. Who stole our file? Good thing you reminded me of that.
That I had forgotten about it. Let's see those with that person who brings us the evidence that we stole them. I want to see, who is that person?
I'm very curious.
While everyone was outside, Daria Gregorievna inside to save the elders from her daughter's humiliation decided to show evidence. He went to his daughter's office and dialed the police number.
Daria G: Hello Police !! I want to report a theft from a nursing home! Please come! I have evidence.
Daria G picks up the phone, takes the evidence file from the table. He went to the large window that came out in front of the courtyard where the protesters were. Watch what happens.
Outside, the elders were agitated and shouting loudly.
Vera A and Sofia N were on one side talking to each other. But Mr. Filipescu and Gavriluţă were not inferior either, they were talking to each other.
Gavriluţă: What is happening here, because I don't understand ?! Should it be as they say? Gavriluţă was skeptical of what the old people said. They didn't seem to believe them. Did the two women even steal the money I gave the elders?
Mr. Filipescu: Who knows Gavriluţă? That's why we're waiting for the evidence. Well, that's why I'm waiting. Because I want to see the evidence that old people are talking about.
Gavriluţă: If there is no evidence, what will happen to them?
Mr. Filipescu: What can happen? Nothing! I just don't understand a thing?
Gavriluţă: What?
Mr. Filipescu: Why did they go out to protest? What's the point of saying they have evidence, that they're waiting for that person? I think there is something that bothers them and they are unhappy. I don't think they're liars. Still, I think there's something in between. And one more thing, don't forget the anonymous letter I received.
During this time at the Botanica police station, after the call received from the asylum. Two policemen go to the asylum to see what is happening.
Daria G is waiting for the police to appear in front of the elderly with evidence. But to see the scene, he sat at the window and looked outside to see what was going on.
Elders shouted Sofia N and Vera Al talked to each other. And Mr. Filipescu and Gavriluţă tried to understand what was going on outside, but they did not succeed.
Gavriluţă: Mr. Filipescu, do we give the bad news to the elderly and to Sofia N and Vera Alex?
Mr. Filipescu: Good thing you reminded me, we have to tell them now rather than later.
Let's tell them Gavriluţă! That will be better!
The two head towards the two women with quick steps.
Mr. Filipescu: Sofia N, I would like to talk to you!
Sofia N: Yes, of course, we listen to you!
Mr. Filipescu: Sofia N, I will give you bad news. I hope there is no tragedy for you Sofia N, and that you understand the situation we are in. The top management announced that from next year it will not help orphanages and nursing homes with any money. The state budget has few resources, but we hold them for something else. You will receive salaries, but it is not known when.
You will be at the mercy of the people or you will take care that the situation of the elders is not difficult. That's how you'll do it. I'm sorry to tell you this. That's why we came to visit to see how the situation at the asylum is going.
The two women were shocked and did not know what to say. They muttered completely.
Mr. Filipescu returns to the elders to tell them that they will have no more money. The same thing he said to Sofia N and Vera Al.
When the elders heard, they were dumbfounded. And they began to shout again.
Once Elizaveta Ivanovna began to shout at Mr. Filipescu:
Mr. Filipescu: You do not understand that we do not have the money. The two scorpions stole all the money from the asylum budget. What money, what else to manage? We don't have the money. We are already amazed at what we hear. I was left with no guts.
When he heard Sofia N say what Elizaveta Ivanovna was saying, he went downstairs and headed for Elizaveta Ivanovna, to beat her, but Gavriluţă stopped her at last.
Sofia N, she didn't care what would happen to her, because she knew the whole plan went awry. He no longer thought he would fire her, he wanted revenge on Elizaveta Ivanovna for what she had done. There was no point in staying here, because the money wasn't from the state. He didn't care what would happen to her. Elizaveta Ivanovna wanted to shut her mouth.
The elders reacted violently, beating Sofia N, but calmed down. And they were protesting loudly to those present on the terrace.
Everything was in vain. It remained to calm the spirits and defend that mysterious person of whom Elizaveta Ivanovna spoke.
Suddenly he appeared at the gate of the asylum, entered the courtyard of the asylum. He was heading for the agitation in the asylum yard. He climbed the stairs to the terrace where the ministers and the two women were.
1 Policeman: Lieutenant Dimitrie Ciobotaru and Paul Geogescu, we are from the police station no. 6 from Botanica. Did I receive a phone call from you that you have thieves? Who's the director here.
Sofia N: I'm the director here. But I didn't call the police.
Policeman 1: I got a call from you. Yes, this is your number: 022010203.? That here is a thief and a murderer. We came to see what it was all about.
The group of elders kept shouting. He had nothing to do with the police.
Sofia N: Yes, this is our asylum number. But I didn't call. Did you call the police? (Shouts to the elders).
Sofia N herself. Who called the police?
Elizaveta Ivanovna: I didn't call the police.
Sofia N: Did you call Vero the police?
V.A: Sofia N I didn't call. You went crazy. Those with you didn't call the police at all.
Sofia N: Mr. Filipescu and Gavriluţă, did you call the police?
The two said no. I didn't call the police.
Sofia N: Then who called the police?
Total silence.
Policeman 1: What's going on here?
Sofia N: Nothing important, old people are upset. We're trying to solve it quietly.
Cops 2: Where's the thief and the killer?
Daria Gregorievna suddenly leaves the asylum.
Daria Grigorievna: I was the one who called the police, with a pile of files in my hand.
Sofia N: You mom !! Why ? I don't understand why mom? What did my mother do to you? Didn't you have conditions?
Sofia N was amazed, her mouth open.
Daria G: Shut up, Sofico !! But shut up. You don't see yourself laughing in front of the crowd.
Daria Grigorievna gives the policeman the evidence. A crime was committed here, and thefts were committed. The crime was committed in the direction of Vera Al and Sofia N. They also committed the thefts.
Sofia N: Mr. Policeman, don't believe what she says, the evidence is false. She is senile and old with sclerosis. Don't listen to her, listen to me, cop.
Another irregularity is happening here, it's emotional blackmail on the elderly. Why do you think old people came out to protest?
To humble himself before the ministry commission. Shame on them for being thieves and criminals.
Daria Gregorievna was against her daughter and Vera Alexandrovna.
The police take the file from Daria Grigorievna's hand. They started flipping through the files. Mr. Filipescu and Gavriluţă approached the two policemen, asked them to look at the file. I'm from the ministry and would like to know what it's about.
The police are flipping through the files and making a conclusion.
Old Daria G says nothing. And the two women are scared. They didn't know what to do, waiting for the decision of the two policemen.
The elders continued their protest
One of the policemen stepped aside and called the prosecutor to come to the asylum to clarify a case.
Mr. Filipescu (shouts to the elders): Please be quiet? It must be quiet for the investigation to proceed. Sit in the chairs and wait patiently. The case will be settled in your favor.
In a short time, the prosecutor came to the scene and looked at the files that were given to investigate the case from the old people's home. He began questioning witnesses who knew about the irregularities at the nursing home.
He is investigating all the charges against the two on the spot. He handcuffed them. He took them to the police station of the Botanica sector.
The elders were pleased that justice had been done and the truth had been found. Mr. Filipescu took the report from Vera Al's table to write in it, after seeing the evidence file.
The two from the ministry find a person in place of Sofia N and Vera Al, life goes on in peace and quiet. There was talk of what had happened here for a long time.
An old man's monologue at the asylum
Somewhere in a nursing home in Chisinau. In a dark room with white and bare walls are four beds, on one of them sat an old man, about 75 years old. He had a letter in his hand. He read it and recited it again.
He took a deep breath and sighed. The powers that be left me long ago, when I was brought here. Since then, my life has changed. I started suffocating here. I have no air to breathe, between these 4 white and bare walls. I just feel love, I need a hug, a kind word, advice and warm relief.
Oh God! That's how I ended up in a nursing home, abandoned by my own children. I can't believe my boys were capable of such a thing.
I've been here for 5 years. I cry every night, I miss my home, my wife, my home village.
I lived well in my village, where I was born, raised and married my wife. Then children were born. I lived a quiet life until times changed.
Even then, when I fought on the front against the fascists, I was imprisoned for 10 years because I defended my faith and ancestral values. It wasn't that hard for me. I worked my whole life at Colhoz, as a brigadier, then as a driver so I could give them a better life. And let them reward me like that ?! Where has there been another like this, to abandon your own children in a nursing home. But hey, here's how I reward myself.
And where I ended up. Stay in these four empty white walls. I feel like a bird in a cage.
I left the house I built with my wife, I left my native village.
I sold the house and the acres of land, I gave them the money, they assured me that I would lead a quiet life together. But suddenly they decided to move to Italy. And they brought me here.
I was left alone, alone.
And they, the bastards, left me here. They listened to their women. And they went to Italy. He had to drop me off at my country house. That I was taking care of myself. But they didn't need me. What to do, with an old and stupid old man, helpless and sick.
I received a letter 2 years ago from them. They promised to send me another. I wait every day. But I didn't get the letter. Will they send me another letter they forgot about me?
I don't think he'll look at me. How to look at me? I'm their father. I helped them take their first steps. I helped them build houses. I gave them the money when they needed it. And now look at me. Did they really look at me ?!
I read and reread the letter every time, so that I can be convinced that it is true and not a dream. He promised to come to the country to see me. But he hasn't come yet. Will he come to see me? Who knows? I hope he comes to see me. That I'm the only surviving parent. And that's how he should treat me.
I didn't think that in my old age I would end up without my own children needing me. I don't expect him to take me to Italy, but I didn't expect him to bring me here either. But can they even visit me ?!
Rolling over the doll, we found out that the principal would kick us out of the asylum. A month before, I had an argument with the directors. Also because of the money. She's not happy that I give her so little. What disgust I have in my soul. Where should I go now? Damn it. I give them pension money and they are still not satisfied. My sons didn't give a shit about it. From my pension, I pay for my stay here.
My pension goes everywhere. I'm not left with anything. Food is not good either. But they still have pretensions.
At least to be in better conditions, to take care of us. But it's not like that at all. He scolds us and treats us inhumanely.
I hope I don't leave, because I have nowhere to go. I stay on the roads. What if I didn't argue with the principal last month over money? He certainly wouldn't kick me out. But who knows? But maybe I won't go anywhere. He will have mercy on me, and he will not let me go.
I give money to these stupid nurses and caregivers to take care of me. But what else do they take care of me? They learned to take money from us. Shame on them. Nesimţitele hell.
It has not yet been announced who will leave. Will he kick me out? How to get me out? I should give them the money to shut up. If I didn't give them, I'd be out on the street for a long time. But maybe he won't kick me out. That I'm good and I swallow everything. I don't cause them any problems. I do everything I say. That if I don't cash it in at all.
Santa takes the letter and rereads it again. Tears flow down both cheeks. Every night, before bed, I take the letter and read it before falling asleep. I dreamed that my boys would enter the asylum gate and take me with them.
I'm thrown out like a dog.
