Texts describing break-though events are always risky if written from the time perspective
of less than subsequent 100 years. The author of this article has decided to write it being fully
aware that this text will contain his subjective point of view but it will also be written from the
position of a witness actively participating in the events of 1989. The author also believes that the
majority of accounts and synthetic articles have or will be written by persons living in a few big
Polish cities; however, his text has been written from the perspective of a Polish provincial town.
