Divine jokes are not to be taken too seriously
Saint Peter shows God what’s happening on earth.
The first thing they see is a group of people labouring from morning until night. God is amazed and asks “What is the matter with those people down there? Saint Peter then replies: “Didn´t you say they had to earn bread by the sweat of their brow?” God answers:
“But I was only joking.”
Next they see robed Cardinals and Bishops at lavish tables piled with food and Wine. And then God asks who those people are. Saint Peter tells him:
“They My Lord are the people who understood you where only joking.”

I feel an inner urge to express what I see, to communicate and share with others all these impressions. Often the things I see are there, not yet manifest, but waiting... to be observed, talked about, and embraced.
These new insights need another approach, a more vivid curiosity...
Due to fear and prejudice we prefer to see only "the official" truth - but THE OFFICIAL TRUTH IS DEAD - being dead, it has nothing to give...
We can continue pretending Death is fascinating or... we can take the trouble to LIVE...
THE NEW has no definition yet...
Again, IT requires another "perception", the courage to apprehend everything differently, from a totally new angle, with new confidence and inquisitive touch. This blog is not about interesting concepts, it is about participation... finding new solutions, inspiration, togetherness.
