Atkurtai Lietuvai 100

100 years of Restored Lithuania - the reason behind today’s celebration. When in 1918 on the 16th of February 20 signatories signed the Act of Reinstating Independence of Lithuania.

Centuries ago our nation started building a country which became a small but strong pagan state known as Lietuva and grew into the biggest European country - Lietuvos Didžioji Kunigaikštystė (The Grand Duchy of Lithuania). We went through a period of Christianization and Union with the Kingdom of Poland, then disappeared from the map by the end of 18th century as Russian Empire and Prussia shared and occupied our lands.

Our language and culture where being slowly pushed towards extinction but due to people who believed that we as Lithuanians must survive our native heritage stayed alive throughout the harsh occupations.

The original Act of Reinstated Independence was secretly taken to Berlin and printed out by free speech newspapers who helped to spread the news in Europe that Lithuanians are creating our country anew. This was followed by over 20 years of Independence, a long period of Nazi and Soviet occupations and finally the Act of the Re-Establishment of the State of Lithuania in 1990 the 11th of March when we restored our Independence for the second time.

Our nation bears a long and complicated history which involves a great number of other nations (as well as religions) beside. Whether those connections were positive or negative they played a part that influenced Lithuania as a country that we know today.

Therefore I would like congratulate all people of Lithuania. Whether you are Lithuanian by blood or by heart. Whether you were born in Lithuania or outside of it. Whether your native tongue is Lithuanian or another beautiful language. Whether you are atheist, pagan, Christian or professing other religions and beliefs. All of you are creating Lithuania that is today and will be in the future. Let’s make the second century that is starting today memorable and develope Lithuania into a country where all of its people would have a right to live and create a decent life.

Su gimtadieniu, Lietuva!

I have … a tip.

If you’re writing something that involves an aspect of life that you have not experienced, you obviously have to do research on it. You have to find other examples of it in order to accurately incorporate it into your story realistically.

But don’t just look at professional write ups. Don’t stop at wikepedia or webMD. Look up first person accounts.

I wrote a fic once where a character has frequent seizures. Naturally, I was all over the wikipedia page for seizures, the related pages, other medical websites, etc.

But I also looked at Yahoo asks where people where asking more obscure questions, sometimes asked by people who were experiencing seizures, sometimes answered by people who have had seizures.

I looked to YouTube. Found a few individual videos of people detailing how their seizures usually played out. So found a few channels that were mostly dedicated to displaying the daily habits of someone who was epileptic.

I looked at blogs and articles written by people who have had seizures regularly for as long as they can remember. But I also read the frantic posts from people who were newly diagnosed or had only had one and were worried about another.

When I wrote that fic, I got a comment from someone saying that I had touched upon aspects of movement disorders that they had never seen portrayed in media and that they had found representation in my art that they just never had before. And I think it’s because of the details. The little things.

The wiki page for seizures tells you the technicalities of it all, the terminology. It tells you what can cause them and what the symptoms are. It tells you how to deal with them, how to prevent them.

But it doesn’t tell you how some people with seizures are wary of holding sharp objects or hot liquids. It doesn’t tell you how epileptics feel when they’ve just found out that they’re prone to fits. It doesn’t tell you how their friends and family react to the news.

This applies to any and all writing. And any and all subjects. Disabilities. Sexualities. Ethnicities. Cultures. Professions. Hobbies. Traumas. If you haven’t experienced something first hand, talk to people that have. Listen to people that have. Don’t stop at the scholarly sources. They don’t always have all that you need.
