It is something that still surprises me ... that the art of living and negotiating in society to achieve common goals, that is, what was expected to be politics in its ideal form, because it is actually shown as a vulgar practice of cheating and unspeakable motivations.
In South America we have a saying that when the government gives a news of insurance the truth is the opposite of what they say, in the case of Venezuela we usually say it as a kind of cruel joke, but even when we try to laugh at that misfortune We can accept it as what is "normal", accept that is surrender and accept that there is no possible future, that nothing is worth it because nothing will improve or change.
Sometimes, I feel that wanting some social group and its leaders to be less liars and selfish is something utopian, but I guess it takes a little fantasy and hope not to fall completely into despair.
The only way to NOT fall into complete despair is to realize that you, we, the people can make a difference. There will be many obstacles, and it will take time, but eventually, we shall overcome.
