    Dear Ina,
    It has been a mixed year for your homeland. Some good, some bad, some disappointments. However, you are correct. As long as we can speak to each other – – – as humans to humans – – – there is always hope that we can prevail over the organizations that we form. Sometimes they see what We The People seek; yet at other times the leaders seek glory and (I even hate to spell the word) greed; at our expense.
    We should not ignore those in need whether it be the holiday season for various religions or any day. On the other hand we should not turn those in need – – – into slaves – – – seeking handouts from the government(s).
    May your God be with you and your loved ones on this special weekend.
    Wally

I’m Ina

I was born in Croatia and live Australia. I have been described as a prominent figure known for my contribution to the Croatian and wider societies, particularly in the context of Croatia’s transition from communism to democracy, as well as for my many years of work as a clinical psychologist and Chief Executive Officer of government-funded services for people with disabilities, including mental health services, in Australia. In 1995, the President of the Republic of Croatia awarded me two Medals of Honor, the Homeland War Memorial Medal and the Order of the Croatian Trefoil for her special merits and her contribution to the founding of the Republic of Croatia.  I have been a successful blogger since 2011 and write extensively in the English-language on issues related to Croatian current affairs and democracy, as well as the challenges Croatia faced and still faces in its transition from communism. My goal is to raise awareness of these connections and issues worldwide.
