When will they understand?

That what is happening now, is so much like 1933. Very similar situation in our politics and how people do react to problems we have now. 

Then, long ago, but not that long ago, we had also a crisis with jobs and money was not much to be found. The working situation got worse and people did wonder who is to blame and had started giving up hope. In the same time, technic became a bigger part and all became faster, much faster then most people have been used to and so they needed time to adjust. But things also got more complicated and people had to question them self, what do they want, but like today, many have never really learned to deal with such challenge and so they look out for easy ways. But there are not such things as easy ways outside and so because most know this and knew this and are/ have been afraid. 

This fear is the ground for what was coming and is going on. The fear is feed by those who want you to listen to them and want you to stay blind and hate. And blind people do we have a hundred thousand. 

I wonder if those people want to see the future and why they deny the past, the stories we know from that time or have they already forgotten? The generation is nearly dead now and no one is to explain the war, the fear and how this all was possible. 

Yes, the big parties have made so many mistakes and told so many lies that people no longer trust them and therefore look out for the small parties, because they still hope that politic will make a better future, forgetting the lesson they should have learned that politic will not make the better future especially not if the people who work in politic act the way they do. I mean as long as they are not for people, they are never to trust. But as I said fear and complicated development around, people search for easy solutions and listen therefore for the loudest voice instead for the voice who speaks the truth.

Funny thing is that just those people from far right and left claim the press to lie and lie self as much as they can, again and again. But this lesson should be learned too. Thought if I watch the reaction now and then it seems always the same. People ratter stay blind and lazy and are unwilling to take responsibility. Far to many go that way through life and wonder why hate went into there homes and time always showed them how wrong they have been, but sadly most of them prefer then to be blind for the fact that it was also their own fault. 

Now hate has become a much bigger part in our lives again and hate speech from our own people, claiming the refugees bring hate. Lies all over the way. The far right and far left get stronger, work together again against jews and homosexuals, against the future and against modern times, agains democracy and against women rights, against equality and a free thinking and mind, free speech and life. They say war is the only solution. Another lie. 

Just like before 1933, we burn books, houses, we hate and kill those who are different, we start fearing telling the truth and the far right and far left uses the words of the middle and makes it hard to evolve to come forward and make peace and have true discussions in the name of love. Just like that time in 1933 we start to write hate lines on windows, destroy busses and trains, restaurants and from helping organizations the tents and buildings and ignore the fact that this all will cost more money then making it the peaceful way. It will bring such damage to our self. 

The fact that it has also become hard to talk with those people who lead the way of hate is very much a like 1933. You can tell people the true statistic but they don't care or call you the bad guy, making up lies. Just like 1933 some countries become more and more human and modern while others take one step back in time and another one to get back to dark times and telling people it is the best for them, thought history always showed that this was and is never the case. 

And all those telling how to handle the refugee crisis are so similar to what they did around 1933 that I think people should be very a shame to like these ideas. 

When will they ever learn that love is the only way, that hate never made it better, that pushing and hurting people never brings you luck and a happy time. That future is only together to win and our big problems need each and everyone to work together. 

Yes, things need to change, like that time then, but not again the same way. Not again dictatorship, not again hate, not again the old systems who never function at the end. We need something new. Something true. We need something with focus on equality, love and respect. It will be a hard way, yes, and that is another reason I guess people run to far right and far left and stay blind, as they fear change and fear the unknown future, the fact to tell them self what they do could be wrong, what they did focus on could be a lie and what they believed that makes them happy was an illusion. 

So many people are so afraid to lose money and status and have no idea to live without the things they shop. It scares them and  makes them listen more and more to the wrong people, to hate speech and make them believe them and those lies instead of asking them self why. And they are clever, starting with nearly harmless words and being out now with the same words like the Nazis and fascists. For many people this became normal, which would have been a scandal years ago. They got used to this and blind to see the truth before their eyes. Sadly. 

Lessons will be learned and have to. That is for sure and if we go on this way we just now do, we will come into very dark times again, but don't tell me you did not know, did not see. We all do and far to less have courage. It is time to wake up for real, to stand up and make up and let lose and spread hope, love and light. 

Grateful are those who already do. Grateful can we be that so many just now are living that way to give us an idea how to do, where to look and how to talk and what we can be. Grateful can we be that people not only pray for peace. That so many help those refugees our countries are unable to manage. Grateful can we be that so many people try all they can to bring the light into the darkness and shine you a way, bring you a candle to go then alone this way, bring you warm hearts and tell you to trust. Trust in you and that love is really all we need, that money means nothing and luck is a matter of thinking and acting. That blaming others is boring and of no interest. That all you need lies in you, all the best future. 

Yes, it will take time. For some- more, for some- less. No one can tell when you will be up there again. But you will be one day, no matter how deep you have to dig. 

Grateful can we be for those who save the earth, the health of others and try to put beauty into our lives. All the music, all the dance, all the books and stories, all the paintings and other arts, all the good technic and project to clean the ocean, the earth. All the help you get without money. Money is seldom the reason why those good things happen. It is the though that there is a will for better. Grateful ca we be for those who try to teach you to focus on the positive as there is so much god worth fighting for. 

But just now we must wake up to see the dark similarities of today with 1933 in our world, in our countries. We may have less wars going on then ever, but that can only be the beginning. Less wars until we have non left must be the way. We can be great and get over this hard times. We need a change and we can make it. Just get up on your feed and act. Stop blaming, make it better, find ways!

Make them understand, those who refuse to let lose the blindness. 

Just now the fate gives us an opportunity to prove us, to change us, to get richer and bigger and define our future. Will we make it better or worse. Therefore let lose from the old patterns and figure out some new. Let's make it better. There are already great ideas out there. Have faith, trust. It's time.

We have four minutes to save the world.

LOVE & LIGHT

journey through a year

Every year is an adventure, is a new journey in your life.

Some years have more to give to you, then you'll expected it. 

Some years are less dramatic and others have many changes on the way.

My year was literally a journey to different places, old and new ones and also in making decision where and how to go on. 

Starting with a new job in sight, I flew to Thailand to visit a friend and to discover a new and different country. I went from Bangkok to the South coast and then through the whole south from near Malaysia up to the "James Bond" Island, over to Phuket and then with the plan high up to the North and landed in Chiang Mai and took the bus down again to finally be back in Bangkok. 

A fantastic journey where I not only got to see wonderful places, but also met new people and tasted food I never eat before. But this you can read and follow from my post from this year after January. http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/02/thailand-journey-part-1.html

Then back in Berlin, Germany I discovered that things went another way then planed. The job as a teacher would not become true yet, as the whole school did not open. Seemed the boss got cold feet about the financial challenges. So starting searching for a new job as I have just left Sweden. 

So starting again was not my problem as I did this several times. You know I always believe that you have to go your way and it will bring you to the places and experiences you need and want to go. Sometimes time is ready, sometimes you are not. So it seemed in this case that I won't be lucky in Berlin and so I went back to Sweden and there I was very lucky. Just there was again a promising job or two in Berlin. Now it was time to think and write down what to do and how. Finally I decided for Berlin as it did look better. Turns out the job they wanted to give me is different then what they told me. http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/03/up-and-down-back-again.html

I declined but then was without a job. Starting all over again.  

Now many people would feel that everything is going wrong and whatever you do, you seem to choose wrong, but I believe there is a lesson in everything and one is to believe and have patience. 

While searching again I worked at my personality. Things which I wanted I did and some things I wanted to change, I went to people who could help me. You know sometimes you need other people to look from another angle. 

I also made another interview and wrote a lot this year on my blog. http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/04/jan-bo-vinter-poulsen-interview.html

That did indeed help. And I had -like it seems - the universe also working for me. A love came into my life and two people left my space. 

I still think about them, but less now and let them go there way. Though we did not parted the nicest way and a misunderstanding led them away, but sometimes you just have to let it go. People have to make their own experience and must always pay for what they do. You can't always safe or change or make it better. Sometimes you have to trust and which the best inside you for them. 

This is also a journey.

Then I discovered my own town again. Like a tourist. Strange in a way. 

http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/04/berlin-walk-secret-way-with-me.html

Finally having my new job and getting also the experience that working as usual is never again the solution, I began a new chapter and also started to go to university again. Well, not again, the first time and will do so the next three years, next to my job. 

In the same time I missed my Sweden and therefore I flew back to meet my friends. 

http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/09/make-break.html

When I came back again to Berlin, I realized that my love affair with Berlin is over. Also I already moved another time (the sixth in one year) and started living in an area I have never been much before. It's a nice area and quite. 

Now living with my love is something new for me, as I always lived alone at my very own place but it is nice and wonderful, thought a challenge for both of us too. 

But like in the last years I have become a traveler. 

Manchester was it in autumn and London. Something new and something old- like the saying goes. 

That was exciting, beautiful and lovely. 

http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/11/manchester-united-or-visite-in-red-town.html

Now that the year has nearly gone I have worked at my new working place a while and had a lot of challenges. A lot stress and a lot to think about. A lot to deal with and try to figure out how to do best, as I lead a team and manage the quality and also doing nursing. Quite a lot and then I have to keep in mind there is a dog home, a love and then my friends. Stay tuned to what they do and how they feel is something I try to fix as good as I can, while learning and doing everyday things which have to be done and also christmas presents will be bought and wrapped. 

To get christmas feelings is something I still wait for.... It is not really coming up..  Am to much bussy. Very much like in the last years it takes  a while. But don't worry, the spirit comes along...always. 

http://one-thing-to-remember.blogspot.de/2015/12/the-holy-family.html

Yes, this year also had its dark political effects. The racism came back into open field and the hate, the gun shootings have become kind of everyday thing and the bombs inside our heart have tried to destroy our faith in democracy. The results of mistakes come to real danger now as one of the mistakes was to keep people stupid in many ways. But also we had many light hours, hours of hope and courage and people seem to awake from a coma they have been or getting away from being blind to being more the seeing eye. 

Sure next year is a leap year but also a year for decisions. Again, we face important times and the decision we will make will more then ever lead the way for the next future. 

So what future do you want?! 

Meaning, it is time to stand up and even when we fear one or two things could go wrong or go a way we don't like. But let's be true, a change never leaves you without the question what to let lose and give up. A change is only possible if you leave things behind and that means also things we are used to. Sometimes we have to free our self from things to get free and to be able to do the next step, even when we fear the future, because if we don't we come to the point where we must and then it won't be that easy, that nice, that way you like to have it. Now you still can decide and go the way, find your way easier then later. 

That is also why christmas is a god start to be grateful and think about what you have as most of us are really rich, and some are rich for the wrong reason and others believe them self poor for the wrong reason. 

Many things come a bit later then we believe or should I say expect, but they do come true if you hang on. I can tell you from my own experience. Many things come when the time is right, when you are ready and the situation is as it is needed. Therefore have patience and go on the way you want to. Keep your goal in mind and do all on the way which gives you what you need and want. A bit planing is also good and then be flexible. That way you can react and catch what you need and come along the way you desire. Make your own path. It's true, it is the only you'll become happy. Which does not need we can go together, cross our ways, but just remember, you have to walk alone on your own way. 

That means sure not to care to much what people say, but listen to them is necessary. It gives you the information you need to reflect yourself. 

Now, let me send you some love and light and which you a merry christmas. Whatever you do, wherever you are, make the best of it. I will be working most of the holidays but am happy anyway. Be happy, be grateful and try to shine and let the sun shine in your heart. Make yourself some beautiful moments, just because YOU deserve it. Do it all for you, instead for the others. Do what makes you happy. Do what you like.  If it is just to give a smile. 

LOVE & LIGHT

I have a tale to tell

I wish old houses would be able to actually tell, then what would we know, what could we ashive and what rumours would delight our days! 

Again I will write about my hometown and places you can discover when you are here. 

As it is, this town is not that little and has a quite interesting history and while the years gone buy the town is changing. 

As a tourist you'll be for sure most time trying to figure out what is the centre and what to see is most inside the ring of our overground. Of course the buildings, the museums and clubs are mostly there but we have also other places to discover and if you have more then three days or have been already in town once or twice, then here is another area whish shows you how different Berlin can look and feel. 

Remember this town is founded in the way that two villages became one little town. Then all the other villages around became part of this town and so this place became bigger and still all those churches and gardens, all those parcs who have been once the centre of the life are now part of a big puzzle called Berlin and then as history went on or better the time, we took away houses, changed places and build street after street and the wars have punched in too and so some places are special as war has not done damage or humans themself. 

After the well known Kurfürstendamm which was once the longes shopping mile, you'll find the Schlossstrasse in Steglitz. Just 10- 15 min away from the Zoo and the old centre of the west part (you remember that there was a wall once splitting the town in two).

But shopping itself can be dull, can't it? So why should you be there, coming out of the underground? To see the "Bierpinsel" a building colourful and closed now due to unsurence fight? No, it's because the parallel streets are a wonderful area to do a walk before or after shopping and having a coffee. Why? Because you can find an italy villa or some house with a south german balcony or a miracle house or a little castle. The reason? The war did not destroy much in this area and it is a quite walk you'll take and your orientation point or better street is the Grunewaldstrasse as you walk the streets left and right, up and down. 
For me it is a pleasure to take the dog walks there. 

Look those picutres down below will give you a short impression. Don't they?

Thought for me, it feels like beeing in a whole other town not being in Berlin. And that is another reason why I recommend this little part to discover and if you come buy bus, then take the M48 and a lot of time, as this bus line can be taken from the centre in the east part and will take about an hour which is actually worth as you get a sightseeing tour too. Does this sound good? Well then... have fun!

Love & Light

Rescue me

...your love has given me hope. A line from a song and something we'll hope some people will be open for love as they just now act in hate and intolerance. The fight against foreign people in many countries has become very obvious and dangerous as it is the play with a fascist mind and game and the come back of right wings and fascists. It is a scary time but still there is hope. 

But how come a mob of screaming people standing on the street fighting police, humans and their own worth and smash fire bombs into houses of living people? How come they lost empathy with those who need help and search hope? How come that many of those ignore the fact that each culture is made of all of us and could not be if we only have been alone. How come they even ignore they got help them self? 

Some answer can be made. We believe if we know little. We believe easy then and in the same times you get filled with lies, which you believe easy as you know too little. And if the person who lies to you should know better, because they have been on the place- you believe the wrong things with no question, because you know too little. 

But how can a big number of people make such stupid things as killing people, hating people without a true reason? How can they feel so strong? 

Here I can give you some lines out of a book I have read: Remember when you have been in the circus? Children- remember when you have been there as a child, then you'll remember how all of you screamed and did laugh. But not because what is happening in front of them or because they all like it so much, it's because you have been sitting with hundreds of others in the same place, who have been also children. Nobody who will tell them what to like, to do and think. You all felt how you ruled the world. 

So, are they enough people together, with the same feeling, you will believe and convince everything.

And then there is this fact. Even when you start something new, already in the beginning are those who are against it and they will do what they can to fight you. In every system lies the fall. And as long some groups are seeking for advantages and power, you'll have to keep them in mind and sight. But every time humans  forgot and seems to be surprised. A total change can only come, if you really change 100% of everything and not e.g. let people from the old system who killed others, work on the same place in the new system. 

Of course I am aware that with those thoughts I will barely change the world but maybe more people will start keep these things in mind. For the time after the next change. 

Just now we have to make clear that we want another future and yes world peace and the end of war and the end of lies and so on... so go on, be visible on the streets, on Facebook, Twitter and so on and be open minded. 
And can't we live in peace like the bees? ;-)

LOVE & LIGHT

It's the end of the year and so... (part 2)

What's going on. Oh brother, brother, brother.. what are we doing with our world or as a friend of mine used to ask- Germany what is in your mind?
Well, you could ask this as a Frenshmen, an Englishmen, an citizen of the USA or of any other country, like Sweden.
What is going on?
Paytime is going on. We pay for the hole we left many years ago.
We pay for taking back money and work on places we should better never have done it.
We pay for all the glorious words we said, even know the situation was worse.
We pay for not taking the picture of pain real as we liked to ignore.
We pay for not saying the truth about religions and their traitor, like the pope and other leaders.
What's going on? Mother, mother, mother- there are to many dieing just because we keep on lieing.
We keep on lieing that black and white are living the same way, treaten as equal, even though we far to often have seen the oposite.
We keep on lieing about the fact that we can live from our pension, even know we know since 40 ! years that this is not the case.
We keep on lieing that there is no war in Ukraine even know we see it clear.
We keep on lieing the russians have worked out their change but they never did.
We keep on lieing that the people in the south of france could keep up the work alone but the truth was they could not mostly and so the Le Pens had an easy game. Very much like in the south of (east)Germany. Since years the work and help with and for young people has been cut, the only who dared to help were the fascists.
We keep on lieing that those people there, who are now demonstrating, are just frustrated and no rassist, even know their are, and those very much like in the time of Hitler.
How come we never believed this could happen again? Well, we keep lieing that we had changed even know the most facist never had to surrender and to regret and understand that they were wrong.
What's going on? Sister, sister, sister... there are to far of you crying.
Cos all the lieing hurts and has a price we all pay, but we pay a higher price because we stay blind, and that's why we run to those who scream, who seem to be the right to stand up in your name, even know if you would listen carefully and take your time, you would never run that fast but you are afraid and blind and so going the old way, as we had it far to often in history.
When will they ever learn, that all lessons come back untill you have understood?!
When will they ever learn that being black is not being worse.
When will they realise that culture is different in every country and should taken seriously as this means also to say that you are to say stop for some things which are too different. Stop does never mean to give up, to say no, but thinking about and asking.
The western world is standing now a test. Can we survive as we believed we are the better system? But we lied so long to ourself and made so many mistakes.
When will they ever learn that saying you were wrong is the first step to find a way out of the crisis.
Oh my friends I know some of you don't know what to do as you don't see a way out of this situation we have in political life. But there is a way as long we see in our eyes and say again the truth.
Well, brothers, sisters, you've got to find a way to make understanding here today!
What's going on?
What's going on?
I'm telling you, what's going on!
We pay the price we can't deny, even know many still try.
Is there hope you may ask, as you have no idea what we can do?
There is always hope as long some of us are doing it right.
It will take time and chaos will be on our way and we will be hurt and we will be tried to be blinded.
The truth will be hided as long as they can hide it from us.
But change will come with each of you as this is one secret of success. You have to change. You have to believe, even know it can be hard to do. You can be love and shine, even know the dark will hunt you.
You will feel the power of negative emotions, but you can let them going away by focussing the positive attitude and your shining goal as fighting aginst the dark is so less but reaching out for the light and colors in your life is much more fun and will make you stronger the longer you go this way.
Calling out the revolution of Love but it should be known as taking care of humans and all we do have and that we all have the same rights and have to be treaten equal. Love has no gender, color, age or social background. Love comes around when you let it. Love can shine you a light but hate will bring you the darkest of time and make you blind.
I could have ad now many more and more exactly things, but I believe you have a mind you can use. Look up what you don't understand. Talk to each other, discuss and ask the right question. The question which are inside you and not lying in your mouth, as many of those have been putting there from people who never want you to be smart or clever. Thought they love you and hate you in the same time. As they made you love things instead of human kind.

Love & Light

thinking about a world

Thinking about a year with a lot of chaos inside
People still die and people still cry
Thinking about a lot of demonstration for the right...
the right to love who you love
the right to be the same as you 
no matter if you're black or white
thinking about a year gone by
so loud it could be heard outside the planet earth
so quite it hurts that no soul is screaming,
screaming stop!
scream that this here is wrong, so wrong
this war is going on for much to long
this lie is told for much to often
your words still try to soften
but the truth must be told
if a change will lose it's -should-
I think about a year and all the people
people who run to the loudest voice
no matter if this voice is right and telling lies
no matter if that place they run to is to cry
people who are so afraid
people who are so blind and forgot what mama said
people who forgot to listen to their inner soul
people who are lost and had never to decide
decide in the last time but now they must
even know they won't, they don't like, cos they don't know
or if they can stand their own truth and see their own lies
so- people who learned to be blind must waken sometimes
people who are afraid it will hurt will know- yes it will hurt
no matter how hard you try to hide
it will always hurt inside
no matter how long you wait
you have to pay
I think of a world in chaos- but it was once worse
I think of a world in change- and I wonder where are we going
I think of a world where many still have not understand
if you want to have a chance, you must take a stand
you must see that old ways are never the future
you must see that new ways must be found
because this is the only chance for a bright future
otherwise things will rebound
if we stand together, love each other and teach one another
and after all find together new ways
find together new days, 
find together in our heart- that standing apart will make us losen the game
losen our faith, losen our love, losen the change
 
So
I think of a world who has to waken
I think of a world with people who are waken already
I think of a world with people deep sleeping
I think of a world changing
I think of a world coming out of the dark and it is getting loud
it is getting hard
it is getting big and  large
but it is getting better
I think of a future in peace, even know it may always be a dream
I think of a year gone by and all the trouble we have had inside
I think of the fact that this is all very natural, but has to be taken honest
taken honest now, cos being a coward is the losers choice
so listen to your inner voice
instead of running to the nearest  and loudest noise
go into the light
take the way of love
take your time cos otherwise you'll be blinded and hurt
take it slow but go step by step
then you can teach the children of the war, those warrios of the blind
where the sun lies and the hope is to find
where the love lies and the laughter cries
where the future is bright
 

LOVE & LIGHT

Vielfalt statt Einheit

Vielfalt statt Einheit oder war es Einheit statt Vielfalt?

Mal genau lesen! Was bedeutet das? 

Ein Gegensatz wird hier aufgebaut mit diesen beiden Begriffen. Aber, wartet mal! Ist das so einfach gesagt? Einheit statt Vielfalt oder Vielfalt statt Einheit. Das klingt beides so logisch und doch, ist dort ein Paradox im Kern, denn warum sollten diese beiden Dinge Gegensätze sein? 

Oh, da fällt es einem doch wie Schuppen vor den Augen! Einheit und Vielfalt als Gegensätze für unser Zusammenleben zu nehmen ist das Dilemma unserer Diskussionen und Denkweisen, gerade wenn es um Toleranz und Akzeptanz geht. 

Also bröseln wird das mal auseinander.

Einheit statt Vielfalt ist für eine gesunde Gesellschaft ungesund, denn sie wird zur Einfalt statt Vielfalt. 

Vielfalt statt Einheit bedeutet am Ende, es wird nie eine Einheit möglich sein, obschon wir uns doch gerne einig sein wollen, denn Einheit bedeutet nicht unbedingt Ausgrenzung. 

Einheit darf und kann ein Ganzes sein, bestehend aus Vielfalt. 

Also demnach Vielfalt in Einheit. 

Denn Einheit in Vielfalt würde wieder bedeuten, das die Vielfalt nicht gelten kann auf Dauer.

Aber besser währe vielleicht doch die Einheit mit Vielfalt. 

Würden wir diesen Gedanken annehmen, dann gibt es durchaus berechtigte Hoffnung auf Frieden, im Kleinen wie im Grossen.

Denn wenn ich auf Facebook und in den Zeitungen blättere, mir die Kommentare und Forenbeiträge ansehe, dann fällt mir das Dilemma immer wieder auf und die Zementierung der Egos und des nicht verstehen wollen, des nicht annehmen wollen anderer Ansichten und der nur sehr bedingten Auseinandersetzung mit dem Subjekt, Objekt und der Konsequenzen.

Die Anerkennung der Vielfältigkeit ist der erste Schritt zu einer fruchtbaren Diskussion.

Das Annehmen und Sehen, dass die Dinge nicht nur schwarz oder weiss sind, ja nicht einmal schwarz und weiss, ist eine wichtige Vorraussetzung, um den Grautönen unseres Lebens zu begegnen und damit die Farbigkeit all unseres Lebens zu begreifen. 

Ohne diesen Konsens kommen wir zu keiner friedfertigen und lebenswerten Lösung. 

Denn wenn wir uns den Grautönen verweigern, dann sehen wir unsere eigenen Fehler nicht oder können die Kompliziertheit mancher Gegebenheiten gar nicht wahrnehmen. Denn vieles ist selten so einfach, wie wir es gerne hätten und daher bedarf es oft des genaueren Hinschauens und Nachfragen, aber dies wird immer seltener getan, auch gerade von der Presse, deren Aufgabe dies eigentlich währe. Jedoch müssen wir gar nicht so weit greifen. Schauen wir auf uns selbst, unserer Fähigkeit uns selber zu informieren und eine Meinung zu bilden! All zu wenige nutzen sie und nur ganz wenige schöpfen sie voll aus. Gründe gibt es genug, aber auch genug Gründe es endlich zu tun. Endlich genauer zu schauen und es zu riskieren, das die eigene Meinung revidiert werden muss. 

Ja, wir werden dann nämlich an unser eigenes Ego erinnert und mit ihm konfrontiert.

Würden wir zum Beispiel aufhören ständig im Palestina/ Isreal Konflikt uns auf die Propaganda zu verlassen und dadurch jeweils immer nur eine Seite als gut oder böse anzusehen, dann würden wir zugeben müssen, das beide Länder ihre Fehler machten und machen und schuldig am fortdauern des Konfliktes sind. Aber auch wir müssten uns als Mitschuldig ansehen, denn das sind wir, da auch wir, der ach so tolle Westen, fleissig am Konflikt friggeln. So ist natürlich der Weg auf Frieden stets verbaut und erschwert all denen den Erfolg, die ihn wirklich haben wollen und auch erkannt haben, das alle Seiten ihre Egos herunter schlucken müssen und im Sinne aller gehandelt werden sollte.

Wie am Anfang schon erwähnt brauchen wir eigentlich gar nicht so weit ausholen um ein Beispiel zu finden. Aktuelle Interessenkonflikte im eigenem Lande, ja gar in der eigenen kleinen Welt gibt es genug. 

Nehmen wir einmal die DAH, die sich im "Streit" mit dem "Männer" Magazin befindet. Auslöser war die Tatsache, das man keine Werbeanzeigen mehr schalten wollte in dem Magazin. Begründet mit einem von der Zeitschrift einseitig propagiertem Männerbild. 

Ein wunderbares Beispiel, wie wir oftmals ticken ist dies, denn hier entlud sich eine explosive Kraft, die sich genau aus dem Dilemma speisst, das Einheit oder Vielfalt gegenübergestellt wird. 

So steht seit dem zur Diskussion ob eine Organisation, die alle ansprechen sollte, sich über ein "zu" einseitiges Männerbild beschweren darf und daher deren Kundschaft ignorieren sollte. Gleichzeitig wurde die Pressefreiheit als angegriffen tituliert. 

Und schon schlug es Axt auf Axt, denn fast jeder meinte sich nicht nur positionieren, sondern die Position des anderen auch noch Aberkennen zu müssen. Was ein Trauerspiel!

Wenn wir ein friedliches Miteinander wollen, sollten wir endlich anfangen, die Position des Gegners zu registrieren, was keineswegs bedeutet, wir müssen sie akzeptieren, aber sie in unsere Überlegungen einbeziehen sollten wir schon. Das aber erfordert auch die Auseinandersetzung mit sich selber und den eigenen Schwächen. 

Es hilft reichlich wenig die Schuld jeweils immer wieder dem Anderem zuzuschieben.

Vielfalt zu anerkennen bedeutet eben auch anzuerkennen, das ein Lifestyle- Magazin ein begrenztes Männerbild nutzen darf. Das tun praktisch alle Magazine und dies hat schlicht auch mit Zielgruppen, Marketing und eben Verkauf zu tun. 

Vielfalt zu anerkennen bedeutet aber auch, das eine Organisation sich gerne kritisch dazu äussern darf, sich aber auch fragen lassen muss, warum sie deren Leserschaft aus der Aufklärung und allgemeinen Arbeit ausschliessen muss. 

Vielfalt bedeutet, das sich Chefredakteure und Angestellte der DAH sich mit ihrem Ego zurückhalten, da sie der Diskussion nur mehr Zündstoff für negative Entwicklung geben, statt sie in eine sinnvolle und vor allem positive Richtung zu lenken. Es bedeutet damit auch eventuell Fehler zuzugeben, weil man zu voreilig gehandelt hat oder aus einem gekränktem Ego heraus. 

Vielfalt bedeutet aber auch für alle die Kommentatoren und Leser, das sie ihr Misstrauen aussprechen sollten und dürfen, aber sich vom Hass nicht verleiten sollten, was leider nur all zu deutlich hier zu sehen ist. Die Abneigung einer Person gegenüber, weil man ihr deren Entwicklung nicht abnehmen mag, warum auch immer und daher Unterstellungen dem Raum lässt, was den Hass auf diese Person steigert und so zu unbedachten und unklugen Kommentaren und Meinungsbildung führt. 

Es ist durchaus anzuerkennen, das man eine Person nicht mag, sie aber in Diskredit zu führen ist inakzeptabel und tut der ganzen Sache keinen Gefallen. Gleichwohl sollte eine Person, die sich dessen bewusst ist, es eher vermeiden Öl in's Feuer zu lassen, nur um sein eigenes Ego zu schützen, denn damit wird der Schaden für alle nur grösser. 

Denn das ist was zur Zeit passiert. Statt einer Diskussion um die Wahrnehmung der eigene Vielfalt in der eigenen kleinen Welt, entsteht die verballhornte Abgrenzung und damit werden Risse erzeugt, die wieder nur mit viel Arbeit zusammenwachsen können. 

Und hier kommen wir wieder zurück auf Einheit mit Vielfalt. Wir können alle zusammen unter einen Schirm passen, der die Farben des Regenbogens hat. Wir können alle zusammen sogar den Schirm sein lassen, uns an den Händen fassen und auf die Anderen kleinen Welten zugehen und mit ihnen zusammen unter einem noch grösseren Schirm uns vor dem Regen schützen. Wir können aber denen dann auch zeigen oder die uns auch, wie es trotz Regen ohne Schirm geht und so weiter und so fort. 

Denn der Regen ist nur Regen und wir sind alle aufeinander angewiesen, wollen wir endlich das Zwist in der kleinen, wie grossen Welt vergeht. Wenn wir kleine Kabeleien aushalten können wollen, dann sollten wir öfter erst atmen, dann denken und dann gerne, dann handeln. Bewusst und mit Weitsicht handeln. 

Einheit mit Vielfalt ist unsere Zukunft, denn wir werden dadurch immer anerkennen das jeder ein eigenes Wesen ist, aber auch das wir Gemeinsamkeiten haben, gemeinsame Werte und Ziele haben. Wir können dann Unterschiede tragen, statt sie zu ertragen oder tolerieren. Wir können sie dann akzeptieren und in Ruhe uns fragen, was ist o.k. und wo gehen unsere Grenzen und warum. 

Aktuell werden die Grenzen schwer misshandelt von allen Seiten.

Aber das hat sein Gutes- es rüttelt am Zaun, den wir aufgebaut haben, weil wir so dumm sind.

Reisst den Zaun runter und rüttelt und schüttelt Euch und denkt an die Nächstenliebe, auch wenn ihr nicht immer die Verwandlung eines anderen Menschen nachvollziehen könnt! 

Denkt an den grösseren Rahmen und lehrt einander wieder über den Tellerrand hinaus zu schauen. 

Vielfalt statt Einfalt oder Einheit ist passé!

Sich zu teilen schmerzt am Ende immer nur einen selbst.

Selbstverständlich könnte ich noch viele, viele andere Beispiele nennen, aber ich halte Euch für fähig genug, um selber zu denken, zu suchen, zu finden und Euch selber zu fragen. Warum hasse ich, warum nervt es mich, was steckt wirklich dahinter, was an mir stört mich, das mich das Andere stört? Angst ist selten ein guter Grund sich blind zu halten. Angst füttert den Gegner und der heisst Hass.

Und damit sollte es mit den vielen Buchstaben erst einmal reichen...

LICHT & LIEBE EUCH ALLEN

Master or Slave

Sitting in a coffeehouse and watch the people go by. Next to me the newspaper and I just read again of so many negative things going on in the world. Well, I know the press loves to write more then ever about negative things, but I do wonder. 
Wonder about all the reasons why things happen the way they do. Seems the world again is going more down then up and more in dark times then sunny times. Is this actually logical?
Do we need the bad times again and again to remember us what we should change and what we do?
Why can't we go the easy way? Or is it the easy way we think and then remember that the negative way is the hardest step to take? 
Do we now pay for all the last years were we loved to ignore to make it right. I mean let's face it. History is written in our books over and over again and lies are on our way. To many lies and to many wrong faces. 
How come that we can't leave hate behind? How come that we still have man with fascist mind? How come that all the extreme religion organizations can still tell people what to think and do? 
We never really took the enemy for real after they have lost. To many did go on with their life without any harm to them or even punishment. 
So how come after all the terrible things that have happened that we still are on the same road?
Don't they always say that life does change after those things?

The truth is, no matter how many terrible things may happen it does not mean that people change or do the real change. But why? 
Yes most believe, truly believe the are going to but then the every day life comes to you and time passes by and suddenly you're so far away from what you wanted once and many forgot or have hide it somewhere back in their memories what had to be done. 
Is it the fear, is it the unknown of the new times? Or are we just to lazy or is it that mankind is very good in telling them self a lie and giving reason not to do it today but still telling their must be a change?

So yes, we pay for all the things we have never done and all the things our parents have never done and our grandmothers and - fathers. But now some of you may say it's not their fault it's the politics fault and the industry and the rich man and the banks and the minister who lied to you. 
And you, you did not do anything to make this happen? Well you did. Now some may say what can a man, a single man do against those big, big lobby?
You can stand up and have courage. 
Isn't it crazy in next to every miracle, in every child story, every movie or TV show you can see that it is possible to stand up. You've ben thought but why don't you follow, if you do follow all the wrong things easy? 
Is it really that easy? Or have the BIG once the power and drag you in in the way they want you to be? To be lonely, afraid, unknown of your own potential or have most of us just become victims of our self? 
Why do many think we are so helpless, if we are not. Why do we close our eyes, if it would be better to have them open and know where you sett your steps?
Is it because mankind has thought them self the fair into blood? Is it that mankind has learned to fight a war instead of building up a home for everyone. Has mankind learned to much to kill and to close the mind over the truth? 
What truth? The truth, that is it not the fault of an organization or a BIG thing, it is.... human being are doing it. In good and in worse. 
But the test of power, the devil power seems more worth for too many. To stay blind is also for too many a way they choose and say they are just a victim and can't change. 
It's a lie but we like the lie.
Most do, dont they?
That's why we have new man with fascist mind, new man who build the bombs, new man who likes to see children starve to dead, new man to keep and blind eye on things wish never should happen to anyone or anything els who lives. 

So sad and it is easy to get angry about the fact that people like to be stubborn and stupid. But it never helps to be angry, it never helps to kill, it never helps to fight with the same weapon the enemy has. It never did and never will. 

Well, we all now this but then we forgot. It's like the silence who is around you and like the dead. We know and then forgot. Forget it every time we've remembered. 
So we don't need to think about it but most of our acting has to do with it. We do our choices known or unknown we always do. It is actually impossible to not make a choice so no one can say it's the fault of another one but we can tell the truth of compromises we took and take. We can see what we do and mostly we know where this will lead us. 
So how do we get our self to leave the path of lies?
Because all the lies have lead to far to many wars, to religions who made people stay stupid and telling things which are in no way what the most religion books are telling and after all you have a responsibility no one can take away from you, not even the priest or the politic man or or or. 
And while we all should know that each of us is equal and should have the same rights, we far to often make it otherwise. Most even think we are better then animals, but far to many are worse then them. But am I telling you something new? No. 

But are we Master or Slave in this game of life?
Is it about that? No.
It is surly not to take a side. Even know it may feel like this sometimes.
So it is a choice between our dark side inside us or the other side. We have both side in us, which is naturally cos like we all know if there is sun, there is shadow but we have a choice how big the shadow will be and how we will live. 

Above all this there is the question how to reach those who are not awake? Or should I ask you can we reach them? For we know very well that blind people are not to reach, no matter what we do. An extremist will never listen to you. The politic never cares about you and the industry owner will only listen to money or something else then you. 

So that means we can't do anything about the war regions? Well, actually never in the way we used to.
Meaning? There is a chance for change but it will not only take time, we believe we don't have and will cost a lot of lifes. 
Yes, many will die and many will be harmed at the end many will leave our way and be hurt. Seems mankind need this pain to really say yes to change in real. 
Lots of victims have been on our ways to change things in all the time we know about. Since we know and get to know our past with archeology we know the offerings, the pain, the mistakes and the dark sides, but also many good success and beautiful things have come to us. With this knowledge we can say that in our future there is a positive change possible if we really try and start with our own life. 
Hope. Yes, there is hope after all but for many people help will come to late and in some areas in the world peace will be a strange word for the next years too. 
Its human who do all the bad things and humans who do all the good things. 

To get awake and start living a life which includes others in love and peace is maybe a hard and painful way but nevertheless more then ever what we need if we will have a future. Just now many people are good in forgetting to make a good future and protest against each other and have connections which I remember we had long ago too and were so wrong and are it today too. Just remember the communist where working together with the fascist in their beginning and now the muslim are working with the nazis and all seem to forget that in their hate against another group their hate each other as well and will kill if the time is right. 
A mother will wonder why her child did say yes to such cruel thing and the father can only answer that the kid is blind. 
This has by the way nothing to do with god, it is human kind who did and do. 
So which side are you on?
And again... This is not the question. It is what way will you give to yourself and others to live by? No one needs to judge another man, but we do and forget that we don't see the whole truth. Things have become very complicated although it is very easy in the same time. 
Actually it is just to decide. 
That's the challenge. Thats the hope. 
And that was a blog with not a special topic but with a topic to include many happenings inside. 
I had the feeling that this is needed as we read of hate crime, of nazis and blind people because religion made them blind and of hate because people have learned hate to long and forgot that there is indeed an other way to live a life. I felt that we should really try to focus on the positive things we can do and live up to. Then we have a chance. There is still good things in the world which are worth to fight for, to open your eyes for to open your mind for. You have the courage inside you. Everyone has it. Just remember. Remember what you know inside you. The time for the next change has long ago arrived and if mankind will come to a better future we have to stand up and focus on the good things and remember. Use the good part of your ego and stop feeding the bad part. Stop feeding people who have loved their ego to much and only listen to the power of their own ego which exclude everyone and is at any cost to survive. 
Remember they are only people. Just like we. They only have the power because of you. Fight against them now? No. Fight for what you want! Ignore them as possible. Concentrate yourself on things you can affect. Start with yourself. Love yourself and forgive yourself for the past and let it go. Yes we have to let the past go. No matter what, there is no reason to keep on with it. It's actually stupid to keep on with the past cos you can't change it, but you can change the future by thinking the right things now. Who has began is unimportant and everyone who says it is is wrong. It's the past. Yes we got hurt. Yes we lost. Well make it better now. Let the mistakes teach you to do it the other way. The way of love and peace and respect. Trying to find those who are responsible for all the things in the past and the situation now is like trying to tell your toe that it is his fault that you went the wrong way. Because it was you and only you who did and nothing is wrong but we do mistakes. So stop saying you can't do it because you can but maybe you won't. Yes I am sorry if someone is telling you that you in that case have no right to grumble about your situation, because it is your own fault. So seeking the fault at others is in that way hilarious. 
Again, there is hope. Just remember. You can do it. 

LOVE & LIGHT
