After this, Albanian children must become very serious. Of course, you cannot stop a child from smiling. Nor from running around the house or in the yard, on the street or in the park. But you must tell him: Look, son! This is what happened to us!
After all this, no young Albanian is allowed to live a carefree life. Even more so, to live his life in vain. In the opposite case, each of them must know that THEY will come again. They will come again and will kill us again, like a wolf kills a pack of kids. In the opposite case.
Albanians are no longer allowed to lower themselves to the level of sheep, goats, he-goats and kids! This should also be the essence of our strategy.
The Albanian nation is not allowed to live carelessly in such an environment, with so many Get out! The Albanian nation must become very serious in this deadly country!
There is no need to feed ourselves with the thought of any revenge. We cannot even pretend to make our neighbors better than they are. You cannot teach that other person how to behave. You must impose on that other person not to behave towards you as he wants. This is your duty. And this can only be achieved when you are very serious in your behavior. Not to fall on anyone’s neck, but to let him know that you are not an oak leaf. Our ancestors have not fulfilled such a request, one of the most important in the life of a nation, and therefore they have experienced all possible horrors. We must not lead our descendants into such terrifying abysses.
