You sit in your chair drinking tea.
Then a thought comes to mind: “The world is on fire”.
You ask yourself: “The world is on fire: sweetheart is that true in this moment?”
And you find yourself, in your chair drinking tea
Then a thought comes to mind: “We are at war”.
You ask yourself: “We are at war: sweetheart is that true in this moment?”
And you find yourself, in your chair drinking tea
And then comes the next one and the next one and the next one ….
And you ask yourself again and again and again …
And you find yourself again and again and again …
When we take the hand
of another human being
and feed her when she is hungry
comfort him when he is sad
When we take the hand
of another human being
and pray with her the prayers
hold him in our arms
When we take the hand
of ourselves
and love the hand that holds us
and feel equality caress us
We know the hand
we know the need
we know the prayer
we know it all …
When you agree with me
I call you: friend
When you do not agree with me
I call you: enemy
I embrace my friend
I bomb the enemy
And suddenly you realize
when time has come
that you only bomb
what you have not
embraced in you
There is no friend
there is no enemy
It’s only you
embracing
all and everything
in the end …
The Latin verb: “intimare” means:
tell, tell about, narrate, describe.
To tell stories to each other
to tell about emotions
to describe all thoughts that come to mind
that is intimacy
Be fully present in yourself
when the other tells his stories
Be fully present in yourself
when the other takes your hand
Be fully present in yourself
when you look into each others eyes
Being fully present in yourself
is the most intimate thing there is
then there is no other
then you are the other …
