A reply to Heidi

You see,

I don´t want to reach “all the people all the time”. If I manage to reach You, if you allow my words TO PERMEATE YOU, in that readiness the new kind of energy I keep talking about can be created.
That energy is your readiness to be touched – that is the feedback I call for.

We need great honesty. The courage to see things differently, to listen, trust, question and reach out.
We need above all COURAGE TO EMBRACE OUR REAL EMOTIONS, whatever they may be.

We live in a horribly sterile age, and we have to recognize this fact if we want to make a difference.

Why do you think your poetry was sitting on a shelf gathering dust? Why do you think my music shares the same destiny?
Because there is no living context today to share poetry, music and love.
These natural expressions have become some kind of either the privilege of some lunatics, “excentric rubbish” or superfluous undertaking – as nobody is interested in real emotion anymore.
Life has to meet life, otherwise I can recite my poetry or play my compositions to a wall…

THIS IS THE REASON WHY I WANTED TO START MIRRORS OF ENCOUNTERS:
Out of an inner urge to create true contact, some kind of extended context where, truth,
true knowledge and Art can blossom.

TRUE EMOTIONAL ENCOUNTERS GENERATE LIFE AND INSPIRATION.

God knows why, but people – for an unfathomable reason – DON´T WANT TO BE
TOUCHED ANYMORE, DON´T WANT TO FEEL ANYTHING.

Everything feels so hollow, because people refuse to look within, dismissing their feelings.
THEY REFUSE TO SEE HOW THEY REALLY FEEL. They want to remain dumb, numb,
hollow and indifferent.

It is this indifference to one another, but above all, this indifference I see in people when it comes to acknowledging their inner life, makes me infuriated.

Whatever is true has to be reciprocated – above all – in ourselves. To let that inspiration sink within us.
To give ourselves, but also one another, a little more space, patience, vivid and
genuine interest and loving attention.

Whatever you give yourself, that is, your emotions in unadulterated form, will reach out to me and everyone around.
