Letters

Dear Stuart,

Thanks for adding your composition to quovadis2222.eu

In 2020, December 21, I wrote to you:

your letter reads like a time-document.

Imagine ‚2222‘: only 201 years when 2021 begins. About eight generations without counting the simultaneity of three till four generations.

England always called the Continent ‚Europe‘…since the reign of Henry VIII and Cardinal Wolsey. It is painful to read what happens after 01.01.2021 on the personal level, and it shows the spiraling movements of human ‚history‘ like the ones in nature, and the influence of just ‚words‘….

Let’s create a different experience and future with QuoVadis? 2222.

Fate seems to play – in this case – a benevolent role.

London and Amsterdam: 4 hours by train. That’s the other side of the medal.

W’ll meet – one way or the other, when the clouds have gone.

I remember a different story about your “misspent youth in the form of a three CD album of Gentle Fire recordings from ’70-73“ . The Gentle Fire‘ is a good-one.

I have ‚kissed‘ everyone you wanted me to kiss, and ask you to do the same the other way around, to keep the spirits high in the shortest days of the year!

Love,

Fons

Dear Fons

plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose…

That’s fine, to put that text

I would like to make some small editorial changes, to avoid ambiguity, see below in red.

That name for the group was arrived at when we consulted the I Ching about forming a group and received hexagram 37 ‘The Family’ which has trigrams, below, LI: fire, brilliance, beauty; and above, SUN wind, wood, gentle.

I will probably have some words to say as an afterword.

And maybe I can think of a story to tell from my adventures in my misspent youth…

I realise I haven’t seen you since that exchange of emails, held away by the environment of covid and the follies of governments. As a result I haven’t given you a copy of the Triple album. I guess I’ll have to post one at the moment.

Love to all

Stuart XXX
