This is the castle of Monteserico, it happens to be in Genzano di Lucania territory, we have talked about this castle recently, for these reasons I am continuing to write something of the history of this region of Southern Italy.

Old man views
Old people are
usually concerned about many things, because they have seen too many bad things
happen during their lives, therefore, they always fear for the worse. Because
they feel concerned, they believe that their role is that they have to look at
what has happened recently and try to compare yesterday events to today
happenings, in the hope that they could be able to see what is going to happen
next, it is a sort of getting ready for the worst. This does not mean that what
they see would really happen, but it might have a good chance that it could
happen, therefore, they would like to warn the people around them about those
concerns that they have.
As I have said
above, we old people worry too much and are usually concerned about many
things. Now as you might know, I have been writing a few articles that I have
published in Hub Pages, in one of my last articles, I have been talking about,
the Norman castle of Monteserico, (The Norman castle of Monteserico, this is the link
if you want to check it out), this castle is situated in Genzano di Lucania and
it is my native town. In the history of this castle of Monteserico, we have
seen that there were many wars and other violent happenings that have happened
in these parts of Southern Italy; therefore, I am asking myself, are these
violent happenings that have occurred in the past going to happen again?
In my views as an
old man, I am looking at the world and see what is happening today, what I see
is uncertainty all around, so, I think that the world is going mad these days.
For this reason, I feel that the human race that was supposed to know how to
behave these days, it is not doing what we are supposed to do. We might think
that we have reached the age of reason and we know everything that we need to
know, but from what is happening we have not; so, what is wrong with humanity I
would like to ask?
So, as an old man
today, I see many things that make me concerned. When we look at the news on TV
or reading a newspaper, or the news on the Internet is almost impossible to
avoid to see the violent things that are happening in the world. One of these
bad news is about the terrorist news that is happening very often. We know that
the bad and violent news are reported more often than the good and normal
everyday news. Because they have happened and the public needs to know, but
really, we are becoming tired of all these bad news, because they most times
they are so ugly that one wants to switch off the TV, throw away the newspaper
and turn off the computer.
So, my dear
readers, I have to say that my heart is crying, it is crying because there are
so many wrong things going on in the world today, so, I believe that we have to
try to do something positive, or at least talk about it, in the hope of finding
a way out. Who knows somebody might come up with a solution.
As you will see
from the following description, this article is going to be about the world
present happenings of these days, so even though I have named this hub, an old
man view of the world, this old man needs to attach this story to a particular
region of the world, in order to make his story real. Now as it happens I have
written already a few hubs about my native town of Genzano di Lucania and also
about the second castle of this town called, the castle of Monteserico, which
has a real history of its own, sense this castle was the castle of the Normans
and Robert Guiscard duke of Southern Italy in the year 1047 or there about, it
was also the castle of another famous person Fredrick ll that owned this castle
around the 12th century in Southern Italy.
We have to say here
that history has a good chance to repeat itself, so, we are worried to a
certain point, because what happened in the past were very violent. Our
concerns are that we believe that today again history might be taking its
course and it might repeat itself; because something might happen again around
these regions of Southern Italy, because there are so many illegal emigrant
coming in. You see this region of Italy has an history of invasion and changes,
starting with the Greeks, then the Romans, Spartacus and others, the Normans,
The Swedes just to point out a few.
Today it seems that
what is happening is not very important, but, the views of this old man that is
writing this article is that: they seem to occupy the whole country and we
Italians are letting them in and welcoming them, even if some of us are concerned,
but I don’t see that this peaceful welcoming is going to last long, because
most regions of Italy are not rich and will not be able to sustain all these
emigrants, so, if this refugees problem that we are witnessing today keeps
going on, there could be another violent story that could soon unfold in the
future in these regions of Southern Italy, therefore we just wonder, if history
is going to repeat itself again, and some violent events are going to happen.
So, we should be
concerned to say the least. Anyhow this post is becoming too long for the
average readers of today, so, see you in our next post called, we should be
concerned.
