The small tricks played on the human nature by clever people, who will create adequate environment for thin sectors of the human personality to develop fast and overwhelm a person’s behaviour and thinking, thus creating a new environment of wonder at the person’s novelty, of imitation, and of establishment of a style exacted as a norm or jeered at the absurdity of, has finally entered the academic spheres where the quotas connecting the importance of the country’s past to the country’s present stability which allows for no material participation of the past, and the promising deeds of the unknown future, are represented by the children of the people who formed, and those who are forming, larger pie-charts, to the effect that where some arguments are weighing down into the conservation of the national specifics, there are other arguments in favour of the fact that universality on the international levels is not an equivalent to blurred dpi scale enlargement.

The Bulgarian language is one last stronghold of the nationalism of the pre-socialist business, the socialist civilian liberal constructiveness, and the post-socialist restriction to any international co-operation which does not pass through relevant structures.

I can recall the time when everybody feared two teachers, the Mathematics teacher and the Bulgarian language teacher, and I can very easily go back through the years of my own school teaching experience to gather my bunch of admonitions, intrigues, fake concern about the country and the nation, and everything coming at me from the people who were served confidence at two tables: the state security structures to which many belonged, and the new business opportunities that many a teacher’s husband or wife availed of.

I guess that the time has come for the Bulgarian language to accept a few minor changes in its standards, in the name of the human nature.
I guess it is time for the education system to be sensible enough, in the name of the human nature, to give back the patterns of wasting the students’ time over twelve years of collectivity at school whose closed environment can be the laboratory of the explorers of the human nature, full of interesting material for the supporting, or the alteration, of the group theory, and I am sure that it is high time for the whole process of teaching to adopt the possibility that there are more practical languages for education and training, which does not mean that the Bulgarian language is not a winning competitor.

In one word, it is never to early to prepare for the future, especially if it promises to be a noon after a discernable dawn.
