Volgograd syndrome, or New Year's canceled?

I was going to write a very merry New Year post that would be so tasty and satisfying to eat on New Year's night, to start losing weight right from 1 January, but did not happen.

Stalingrad

I have prevented the bombings in Volgograd. Anything else is now impossible to think - only those three dozen people who were going somewhere, "suggesting to live", planning menus, making plans for the new 2014, which never comes. On the "unknown child eight months," which did not plan anything and nobody had time to cross the street - just loved my mother, and milk, and this wonderful world, to show him the goat face of evil. About a girl born in 1994 - the year of the birth of my oldest son - who was also, apparently, he was a student and that her mother did not wait. About unmarried at the Volgograd police station, close the live bomb his body. Those who died on the spot, and those who died in the hospital. About the victims and their relatives.

I can not think of Volgograd - and it's not the fact that it is bordered by the Saratov region, where I come from, and therefore evil and closer to my parents. Volgograd - is everyone's birthplace, in the sense that there was a crisis in the Great Patriotic War, after which the Germans have ceased to skedaddle, where they drove filthy broom. He did not accidentally set the target a new enemy violates universal holiness, to prove to us that no one else to protect and nothing.

Do not you think these thoughts, fear and hatred can go crazy? The victims of terror are not only killed and injured .  Millions of people these days are overwhelmed by panic .  She has not only society that can start a witch hunt, and again innocent suffer .  At the household level, and universal health panic killing one and all .  The number of heart attacks and hypertensive crises, aggravated neurosis and a variety of chronic diseases .  Fear for himself, fear for their native breeds insomnia, from which to a nervous breakdown - a stone's throw .  Horror to public transport in particular has those who are forced to use it, and is in the personal hell of his fear every day on my way to work and back .  In March 2010, after the explosions in the Moscow subway, our psychologist Anna Eliseev wrote advice for those who are now afraid to ride the subway - unfortunately, they are still relevant, you can instead of "Metro" deliver "trolley" or "train" or " aircraft" .  This is our most important task now - not to make yourself crazy with neither fear nor hatred, keep calm and health, prevent anxiety and panic become compulsions - this peak is very difficult to go .

But to pretend that nothing is happening, we can not - and should not. I have a friend - a former paratrooper who for any holiday table before the third glass darkens and drink it standing up - for those who are no longer with us. No matter how happy or night stood out a new 2014, even if there is a moment when one thinks of Volgograd, which had not reached her.

I will remember that eight months.
