Pasinei nekubudirira kwake, munyori weBritish sainzi Charlie Strauss anonzwa sekunge akundikana: anoita kunge akakundikana pabasa rekukura. Muchikamu chake, anoedza kufunga kuti chii chinokonzera pfungwa iyi yekuzvidzika.
Pandakanga ndava kuda kusvitsa makore 52, ndakangoerekana ndaona kuti: Ndinonzwa sokuti handisati ndaita basa rokuva munhu mukuru. Zvinoita sei kuva munhu mukuru? Imwe seti yezviito uye maitiro? Munhu wese anogona kuita rondedzero yake. Uye pamwe unonzwawo kuti haugone kuzvienzanisa.
Handisi ndega mune izvi. Ndinoziva vanhu vakawanda vemazera ese, vezera rangu nevadiki, vanozviona sevakundikana nekuti vakatadza kukura.
Ndinonzwa sokuti handisati ndakura, asi zvinoreva here kuti handisati ndanyatsoita basa rokukura? Ini ndiri munyori, ndinogara mumba mangu, ndine mota yangu, ndakaroora. Kana iwe ukaita runyoro rwezvese zvinofanirwa kuve nazvo uye zvekuita semunhu mukuru, ini ndinowirirana nazvo. Zvakanaka, zvandisingaite hazvisungirwe. Asi zvakadaro ndinonzwa sekunge ndakundikana… Sei?
Ndichiri mudiki, ndakadzidza muenzaniso wekuti vechidiki vemazuva ano vanongozivikanwa kubva kumafirimu ekare.
Mafungiro angu pamusoro pekukura akaumbwa muhuduku zvichienderana nekucherechedza kwevabereki vakashandura makore gumi nemasere mukupera kwema18 uye kutanga kwema1930. Uye vakatevera muenzaniso wekukura kwevabereki vavo, sekuru nasekuru vangu - vatatu vavo handina kuzovawana vari vapenyu. Avo, zvakare, vakakura pamberi peHondo Yenyika Yekutanga kana mukati mayo.
Ndichiri mwana, ndakadzidza muenzaniso wehunhu hwevakuru hunozivikanwa nevechiduku vemazuva ano chete kubva kumafirimu ekare. Varume vaigara vakapfeka sutu neheti voenda kubasa. Vakadzi vaipfeka marokwe chete, vaigara pamba vachirera vana. Kubudirira kwezvinhu kwaireva kuva nemotokari uye zvichida TV ine nhema nechena uye chokutsvaira—kunyange zvazvo chakanga chiri chinhu choumbozha muma1950. Kufamba nendege kwakanga kuchiri kunoshamisa panguva iyoyo.
Vanhu vakuru vaipinda chechi (mumhuri medu, musinagogi), nzanga yacho yaingofanana uye isingashiviriri. Uye nekuti handipfeki svutu netayi, handipute pombi, handigari nemhuri yangu pamba pangu kunze kweguta, ndinonzwa semukomana akakura asina kumbobvira aita munhu mukuru. kuita zvese izvo munhu mukuru anofanirwa kuita.
Zvichida izvi zvose hazvina maturo: kwakanga kusina vanhu vakuru vakadaro muchokwadi, kunze kwevapfumi, avo vakashanda semienzaniso kune vamwe vose. Ndizvo chete kuti mufananidzo wemunhu akabudirira wepakati-kati ave maitiro etsika. Zvisinei, vanhu vasina kuchengeteka, vanotya vanoedza kuzvipwisa vamene kuti ivo vakura, uye vanoedza kutsinhirana nechinhu chiri chose icho vamwe sezvinofungidzirwa vanotarisira kwavari.
Maguta emumaguta emuma 50s akagara nhaka pfungwa yokuzvibata kwevanhu vakuru kubva kuvabereki vavo. Pamwe ivowo vaizviona sevakundikana vakatadza kukura. Uye zvichida zvizvarwa zvakapfuura zvakanzwa nenzira imwe cheteyo. Zvichida vabereki vanobvumirana ve1920s vakakundikanawo kuva "chaivo" vanababa vemhuri mumweya weVictorian? Vangangodaro vakazvitora sekukundwa kusakwanisa kuhaya mubiki, musikana webasa kana mubati.
Zvizvarwa zvinoshanduka, tsika dzinoshanduka, uri kuita zvese nemazvo kana ukasabatirira kune zvakapfuura
Kuno mupfumi ane kodzero yokuwana zvose zvaanoda, muranda nedzidzo yavana vavo. Kuzivikanwa kweDownton Abbey kunonzwisisika: inotaura nezvehupenyu hwevapfumi, vanogona kuzadzisa zvese zvavanoda, kurarama nenzira yavanoda.
Mukupesana, vanhuwo zvavo vanoedza kuomerera pazvidimbu zvemienzaniso yechinyakare izvo zvakanonoka kare. Naizvozvo, kana iwe zvino uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge uchinge rwuri palaptop , kana iwe usina kupfeka sutu, asi hoodies uye joggers, kana iwe ukaunganidza mamodheru ezvikepe, zorora, hausi munhu anorasika. Zvizvarwa zvinoshanduka, tsika dzinoshanduka, uri kuita zvese nemazvo kana ukasabatirira kune zvakapfuura.
Sokutaura kwakaita Terry Pratchett, mukati memurume ari wose ane makore 80 okukura anogara mukomana akavhiringidzika ane makore masere okukura asinganzwisisi kuti heroi iri kuitika kwaari zvino. Gwira mwana uyu ane makore masere womuudza kuti ari kuita zvose nemazvo.
