We believe we are entitled to get enough food, shelter, attention etc. We are convinced we have this right. This is in my opinion not so. Enough is a concept that is impossible to defend if we look at it more closely. Let's elaborate on this matter in the way we are addressing our children in their welfare and education. 
   
 Human wellbeing says a child needs sufficient or enough attention, comfort, shelter and food etc. This is sadly not true. More it is even an impossible task to perform because no one can answer the question: What is enough? How much is enough? 
   
  In ancient times humanity was happy when it could feed itself and his children. In those earlier days, the days of survival of the fittest, we humanity fought the elements of nature in order the stay alive. Where was then that possibility to give your child the attention it needed? It got lost in the struggle for life. Life was about staying alive one other day, this we conclude now, thousand years after the facts. There was no room to give the baby any attention back then, food needed to be found, shelter and fire. These were their priorities. Still the child was present in the middle of this drama. He was present when all this happened. Then again he was always in the centre of the action, because he was the future. So he never was abandoned and he never was left alone because he was part of the solution: survival. So I wonder it were bad times for him. Who shall say? 
   
   
  In modern times we claim still, even more attention should go to the child's education and upbringing. Food becomes balanced diets, on regular bases; five feedings a day, enough sleep, enough activity. So we try to give him this if we can spare the time. We try to keep a good balance work/life, not only for the baby but even for ourselves. Enough free time, that's a big priority these days. Still we are struggling with the economic crisis, money must be earned. Money becomes, just like free time, strangely not for granted, not free. There seems never to be enough time nor space to fulfill the needs of our child. So we call these for ourselves, for our children wishes, but dreams don't pay the bill. 
   
 But new age and modern psychology came with more input and now there is a new wind blowing. It becomes even harder to get. Now they claim not only a child needs food, shelter, rest and attention; he also needs acknowledgment, trust and a positive self esteem. When a baby cries and has 'a need' we ought to fulfill this natural call for satisfaction. If a baby is not satisfied, if his needs are not fulfilled, his self esteem grows slim. The stability on ones character, the happiness of the baby’s life, depends on whether he got enough attention when he was tiny. If this is not done, it will affect the adult, he will become later. He risks developing several dysfunctions. If the babies needs are not satisfied within a certain time frame he will start to wonder if life is really plentiful. And if the baby concludes life is not plenty, if his needs are not fulfilled, he will try to do this later. He will try to compensate the lack of satisfaction in sex and drugs and rock and roll. He will get greedy, or jealous or worse: He will become a rapist, a sadist or maybe worse a manager....He will manipulate society in order to get what he never got: decent attention..... Or he will become self destructive or also worse, an economist, a builder of concrete roads and buildings or maybe a surgeon, to cut off, to wipe out everything away that shouldn't be there. He didn't get it, so no one will. 
   
 What is enough? How can we satisfy others, ourselves 'enough'. How much is enough? How do we define this? Does another one hold the key, how much enough is, what satisfaction is? And I try, and I try and I try and I try ...I can't get no!... Bom Bom Bom ...I can get no...satisfaction.... 
   
  When I look at not enough (satisfaction) I notice two kinds of them. 
  1. Not enough space... 
  2. Not enough time 
   
   1: Not enough space.  
   
  When I need, or I think I need some attention, from a person, there is a chance that person is already taken. Maybe his focus is on another person. It is not that that person is not able to give me what I want. He just is occupied with something or someone else. So I'm getting no satisfaction. There is than not enough space. That person can't do two things at the same time: and giving you full attention and the other one at the same time. So in that moment time is null, only space is available, but not enough. Maybe he tries to but then he has to split up his focus (space) and that just might be ....not enough. What is enough space? 
   
   2.Not enough time.  
   
 Maybe there is not enough time. That person can give me enough focus, but there are more people who need his attention. So he gives me full focus (space =100% or enough) for awhile, an amount of time( time=x) and then he turns his attention to the other person. Was this enough ....? Who can tell? Who's to say how long x time must be? How on Earth can we avoid the decline of self esteem of the baby? 
   
 How can we define what enough is? This is important because if it isn't enough the baby or in this example me is not satisfied and this will have consequences in later life. Solving this is impossibly I claim. Defining enough is impossible. How many quanta (in amounts of space) is enough? How long, in amounts of time, is enough? This enigma seems to be impossible to solve and so we think and believe. We believe we don't get enough things but asking what would be enough, we can give no decent definition of enough. We believe that we will be happy when we get enough of something, but how much this is no one can tell. 
   
 Still we try to get that enough, that satisfaction. We try to run back and forth, from work to home and back. From love to lover, from husband to wife, from child to boss we move hasty to satisfy them/ourselves in order to get any satisfaction. And this in itself is the mistake. The total approach is wrong. 
   
 You can call me silly and maybe I am but basically this is what we do. We seek, go out the door to get some satisfaction, and hopefully it will be enough. We all do this, and together. If it would be to feed ourselves and the children we could cope with working one or two days per week. A little house would do, a simple decent meal would do the trick, some furniture. That's all we need. What are we running for then? What are we looking for so we would feel satisfied? It is not so that we are not easy to please, or even not at all. Can we confess, admit we are not looking for enough, because we don't know what it is? We claim we do, but this we need to admit: we don’t. Every time we get it we want more....all the time. It could be a jolly good joke and we could laugh about it if it was so dramatic. Look at the world we live in, we consumers are looking for things that are not there. Can we admit we are trying to fill a gap that is in us, not outside us. If we don't see this, there is no end to this game, foolish and absurd. See the madness of our behavior and notice we are missing a point here. We are like a donkey chasing a carrot. See this and weep or laugh: the result is the same. 
   
 We can call the world crazy but only because the members of it are crazy, we are crazy. We believe if war stops, we and everybody gets enough love, suffering will stop. But the suffering is not outside us. It is inside us. We believe enough exists, but there is no such thing as enough. A barrel without a bottom cannot be filled. And now we are getting at the bottom of things. We have a very big whole in our bucket, and need to fix this. At the moment we think we can fix all when we get enough of things, material or non material. But the real disease is thinking that as such. A mad man thinks not looking at things will save us. And dear people we're not looking...at all.  
 We can’t do anything about this, because we are starting on the wrong foot. If satisfaction is the goal we will never reach it. A broken stick will never succeed to perform enough power. First he needs to fix himself. Before that every action is in vain. The only decent action there is to perform is to fix the stick, to fit the whole in the bucket. Otherwise all water will drain out of it…again. How can we fix the self esteem of a baby when it is not anchored forever. If it can be broken, thrown away because we didn’t do something anything, or did something, anything, we are screwed. This is an impossible task, both for the baby and for us. 
   
 The approach of trying to satisfy is wrong. Only bodies can be satisfied. Since we have a body, and not are a body, satisfaction addresses the body part of me, my SELF. As long as I do this I’m not whole, since I address only a part of me. Addressing only a part of me I define myself not whole. Addressing the baby in such a mode is ignoring his heritance, his non unlimited eternal source and being. Addressing ourselves and the baby as such will arouse the baby and you. It is felt as an abuse of the integrity of the SELF in the body of the baby. It is felt as a refusal of his total being. This a baby nor us can ever incorporate, process. Processing this, acknowledging this is acknowledging we are not what we are. Acknowledging we are not what we are we are not whole. Not being whole, we cannot function properly and will try to compensate this. But unaware why and what we need to compensate only madness and dysfunction is the result. 
 We are one. We are full. We are whole. This is or should be our natural state. Satisfaction, the looking for relief only arises when we think we are not whole. When we really feel as a fact we are in abundance, abundance will be there all the time, always here and now. There no such thing as no satisfaction. This is our disease. We lost the feeling/believe/fact we have all, because we are all. We get satisfaction even when things are refused. We don't want things. We are not here for filling our belly. We are here to enjoy EVERYTHING, also refusal. When we get refusal, we wanted refusal and thus we are satisfied ….and happy, or not. There is always enough, there is always satisfaction. We lost that feeling, that's all. That doesn't mean there is satisfaction now. All roads lead to Rome. This means that every intention will lead to its satisfaction....in time in space, though it doesn't mean here and now; in the time and space continuum. But it does mean here and now in eternity. 
  A body is a temporarily thing. An temporarily being can only see temporarily satisfaction. In eternity everything is ok. Every intention will meet its source. Every call for identification, who am I, will end up at our mother and fathers home and will be heard and answered for. 
   
  Nothing is unseen or will stay unseen. I GARANTEE THIS.  
  First we must be. And when we are we can do...in space and time. Being in space and time is moving the deckchairs of the Titanic. 
  Be is eternity...do in the time/space continuum. Play... 
   
  I'd like to turn on ....

Heeft het enig belang welke naam ik heb? 
Heeft het belang of ik een lichaam heb? 
Besta ik dan niet in de wereld? 
 
Wat is de wereld van de cinema? 
Wat is de wereld van gevoelens? 
 
Ze zijn met de materie verbonden zeg je... 
Hoe denk je dat ik iets zeg dan? 
Hoe komen deze woorden in de realiteit terecht dan? 
Je ziet realiteit echt te eng. 
Doe dat gewoon niet meer. 
De wereld stopt niet aan de grenzen van een land. 
Realiteit stopt niet aan de grenzen van je lichaam. 
 
Je weet dat... 
Laat ons daar eerlijk over zijn. 
 
Voor mij niet gelaten...maar voor jou.

Does it matter if I have a body. Don't I exist in your world?  What is the world of cinema? What is the world of feelings?  They are connected with matter you say... How do I talk than?

Reality doesn't stop at the borders of your body.  You do know that... Let's be honest about this please.  Not for my sake...but for yours  Tharon

boodschap meegaf. 
 Maar ik verkoos om hem, opnieuw, niet te begrijpen. 
   
 Hij vloog heen. 
   
 De consequenties zijn voor mijzelf, 'dat' had ik wel begrepen. Dat was dan 
ook zijn boodschap. 
   
 Je roept om hulp, maar jij negeert mijn antwoorden. 
 Ik negeer je vragen niet, besef dit....of tot er geen vlinders meer
