Coincidence?Yesterday, I quoted my closest friend, Tetrapilotomos:
"Sometimes I think: Past is. Is presence. Impossible to let bygones be bygones or even forget about. It’s there. Is presence. And maybe herein lies the reason that we remain unable to learn from the past."
What I had not been aware: Yesterday was so-called Children's Day. In Germany.
At night I read one of these BBC-Listeners from 1959, which - to my great delight - I had only recently rediscovered in a "forgotten" box.
And I found this advert.
Yes. Past is. Is presence. Nothing changed.
Why?
It is not due to any existing or not existing God's will. It is a - perhaps ... probably the infamy of mankind.
And today is another Lip Service Day . . .
And tomorrow . . .
I'd particularly like to draw Germany and us closer together.
ReplyDeleteWithout any ulterior motive: I should like this to happen, too.
