General Spotinov

10 years ago, my family won a Green card from the lottery and came to the United States, and settled in New York. Our first apartment was in Astoria. One of our countryman was called Spotinov, he was tall, pale, blond haired, had blue eyes, and was in his 60s. He introduced himself as a painter, who lived in New York for about 30 years and didn�t succeed as a painter. Before he was a professor, talented with great hopes for future. Europe was too small for his ambitions.
He was modestly dressed, and had modest behavior. He always had a Russian news paper in his hand, while cursing the government for his problems. He did not like to speak in English. People around him were sorry for him. Mostly for his bad luck, and often spoke with him about their difficulties. Everyone asked him for advice and trusted him as a more experienced average person. We would gather sometimes in a small caf� so we could see each other and share our problems and speak our native language. Spotinov was always there at our meetings, he wouldn�t say anything most of the time, and only listened carefully. He never drank, or ate in this caf�. We thought he had material difficulties, and many times we offered to pay the tab, but he refused.
Life in the US was apparently much more different then we had assumed, nothing like our Europe. At times we felt like we have come from another planet. We wondered how this is possible, for everything to be so different. But we wanted success and adapted to the new lifestyle. Many other people from our country weren�t able to adapt to the high standards of New York, and moved to Chicago.
Our family was alone in the big city, and so was Spotinov.
The battle for survival kept becoming harder and we didn�t have time for contact with anyone. Work and hope for a few more hours of sleep was our life, if you could call it that. Meanwhile Spotinov seemed stranger, and we were unable to explain his behavior. We saw him following us, even in bad weather, while he was trying to hide as much as he could. His clothes were the same kind every time. He even wore a jacket in the hottest weather. A couple of times we saw him at our door, trying to listen to our conversations. One day we saw him getting out of a luxurious car. We were surprised and out of curiosity we began to pay attention more carefully at his behavior. We are engineers and have good, logical thinking. This is how one day we found out the truth about him. General Spotinov � Interpol. Probably Spotinov is not his real name and about his nationality � who knows?
During the past years he had followed our small group and searched for criminals. Many times he provoked people with problems to break the law and they were arrested soon after. He used their mistakes to make a great reputation for himself in Interpol. Unfortunately he succeeded. He took care to prevent the well being of everybody from our country, including children.
He treated the School�s Principals with Interpol and many children were expelled from their Schools. He used the name of Interpol to resolve his personal ambitious. He assured his bosses that he is fighting with criminals. His bank accounts became bigger and now he is a millionaire.
This is a sad story. Spotinov hadn�t understood for his entire life that people make mistakes, but it doesn�t make them criminals. It is more important to help then to punish people who have made mistakes. His work had apparently destroyed his ability to see good in people, for him they were all criminals; his task was to catch them. He was a hero in the eyes of Interpol. Millionaire with money soaked with peoples misery.
For our family this was a very important and unfortunate find, we thought of him as a friend before. We stopped meeting with him, moved to a new apartment, and broke contact with him, for us he wasn�t a hero, he had lost his humanity. He had turned into a brilliant machine who no one wanted to speak with.
