Perspectives
2007 |
','Image'))
|
| The art of forgetting:
Forget the good and the bad dreams of last night.
Forget the day that has passed, no matter how good or bad it was.
Forget last week, the previous month, the previous week -
it's over and done.
Start the new morning like a child, live in the presence of time.
Don't make your conscious a museum of memories,
let it be like a blackboard - and often use the eraser.
Practice the art of forgetting -
but keep in mind:
Life is only worth living in the presence of time.

Loneliness
2007 |
)
|
| Fragmente der Vergangenheit - Schreie im Wind,
zum verschwinden, jedoch geblieben sind.
Flucht ergreifen in einer Welt der Illusion,
später erwachen in völliger Isolation.
- R. Siedentopf - |

Enthusiasm

|
| Was du tust, das tue Richtig.
Lass es sein, was Dir nicht Wichtig!
Nur mit Begeisterung an der Tat,
findest Du den richtigen Pfad!

Desire
2008 |
)
|
| Meine Sehnsucht schreit zum Himmel hinauf!
Immer, immer wieder – es hört einfach nicht auf!
Erfüllung dieser Sehnsucht – dieses Verlangen...
Wahres Glück kann ich damit nicht erlangen.
Gebe dann wieder Kopf und Kragen
und die erfüllte Sehnsucht haut mir auf den Magen.
Sehnsucht, Verlangen = Bangen
- R. Siedentopf - |

The Mask
2007 |
)
|
| Keiner weiß, was mich bewegt.
Keiner weiß, wie es mir geht.
Auch ich eine Maske trage,
viel dulde und wenig sage.
Man hat mich ausgelacht
und als Naive gedacht.
Doch Tugend würde ich es nennen,
die so wenig heut noch kennen.
- R. Siedentopf - |

Vollmond

| Der Mond
Es wird Nacht, es ward Dunkel.
Sanft schaut der Mond auf uns herunter.
Er berührt unsere tiefsten Emotionen,
er löst sie aus, verwirrende Illusionen.
Schweißgebadet man dann erwacht,
sieht wie der Mond herunterlacht.
In uns die große Sehnsucht weckt,
sich dann heimlich hinter Wolken versteckt.
Was habe ich getan, was habe ich verbrochen?
Warum kommst du in meinen Träumen gekrochen?
Es wird Nacht, es ward Dunkel.
Sanft schaut der Mond auf uns herunter.

| This collage was done while enduring quite a lot of backache, before my big operation. Nice to look at this picture, remembering the suffering and therefore appreciating the new health I'm enjoying now. |

Down

|
| A week ago I was very down. Woke up - my face, one big frown. Suddenly I came to the realization, only I was to be blamed for this situation. No matter how big the despair, the answer, always within us somewhere. To find the final solution, look within and you will come to the conclusion. - R. Siedentopf - |
