People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest.

(De Hermann Hesse a reflexiones que yo misma me hago buscando la verdad de la existencia humana)
"De acuerdo con mi experiencia, el peor enemigo y corruptor de los hombres es la pereza mental y el ansia de tranquilidad que les conduce a lo colectivo, a las comunidades de dogmática fijamente establecida; ya sean religiosas o políticas.
Ni los estados ni la fuerza han determinado el proceso de humanización que debe ser continuamente sostenido para que el hombre alcance su madurez y cada vez sea menos necesaria la dominación del hombre por el Estado"
"No veo el ideal humano en ninguna virtud o credo determinado, y considero que lo más alto a que pueden aspirar los hombres es la armonía más perfecta del alma del individuo"
Hermann Hesse, 1921
Ni la religión, ni el estado, ni la ciencia, ni ninguna ideología, han de etiquetar tu ser ni tu sentir de manera determinante y estática. Somos seres sexuales, sociales, dinámicos, deseosos de contacto en todas sus variantes y equipados para ello con nuestro maravilloso cuerpo. Estamos hechos para el contacto físico: casi dos metros cuadrados de piel sensible al tacto, a la presión, a la temperatura, al dolor y al placer. Nuestros sentidos captan e interpretan estímulos internos y externos a través de órganos especializados para ello. Cada uno somos un milagro, y nuestra responsabilidad, atender nuestra naturaleza y nuestra verdad. Autogobierno responsable es la clave.

Let me share my favorite in-story welcome message in all of #literature. It's spoken by Pablo in STEPPENWOLF by #HermannHesse (occasionally misquoted in translation):
"'This little theater of mine has as many doors into as many boxes as you please, ten or a hundred or a thousand, and behind each door exactly what you seek awaits you. It is a pretty cabinet of pictures, my dear friend; but it would be quite useless for you to go through it as you are. You would be checked and blinded at every turn by what you are pleased to call your personality. You have no doubt guessed long since that the conquest of time and the escape from reality, or however else it may be that you choose to describe your longing, means simply the wish to be relieved of your so-called personality. That is the prison where you lie.'"
Another guy who upbraids/upbraided his readers a bit, huh? Though not overtly.
At times I wonder if I upbraid my readers too much. Even if usually not overtly. But then I check out what the great WEATHER IS HAPPENING Weather Man is (always) telling his readers. Overtly. Reminding me how maybe we all should be upbraided more, not less... Yeah, it's a fine mess we've made! And no, I don't think Weather Man is only joking around. Not truly. #repentance #WeatherIsHappening https://weatherishappening.network/@WEATHERISHAPPENING/116256146311230496
Wer nicht in die #Welt zu #passen scheint, der ist immer nahe dran, sichselbst zu finden.(Hermann Hesse)
