...(a) reminder on our somewhat outdated search for the constant "new". As if anything in this universe ever remained the same?
And equally the distorted view of "exceeding", "surpassing", "competition", "rivalry" instead of: cooperation towards improvement, mutual trust, joy, peace and well-being.
After
some 60 years of living and trying to go my "own" way, it is quite open
to me (evident) that most people are disturbed by such considerations.
Therefore, let us conserve our energy. Let us address them rarely or not at all with our thoughts. And if we ever attempt it- only in a shy manner of a question. Would they consider such a thought of search? Would they consider their benefit and
the consequence to the groundwater? Would they consider working every
waking hour for their own well-being, which they do not know yet?
These good people cannot do that! Therefore all our few
hints have to remain questions posed to them, and only rarely. One
reason: these people should not get tired of hearing it. When
"confronted" with such a question, they will get anxious. Years
it will take for them to ask a question, to "shed some light' on to
this "burning" question. (however, the "burning" is totally hidden from
them)
Let us be ever so gentle with them. It will take hundreds of years, for certain, for us to evolve (us, the larger community)...

Phillip B. Klingler attended Professor Wolfram Niessen's art classes at Northern Michigan University in the early 1980's. After leaving the university, Klingler and Niessen continued a vigorous correspondence until the mid-90's. This blog consists of excerpts from their correspondence, photos and other information about Wolfram Niessen's work and life.
