Que te des cuenta de que, aunque algunas veces no vemos salida alguna a problemas incontrolables, siempre hay alguien más que te puede entender perfectamente porque lo tuyo, en ojos de ellos, solo es pasajero.

Ich schreibe, weil keiner mehr zuhört... Menschen reden nur noch aneinander vorbei. Sehen sich nicht mehr. Kein Platz für Romantik. Kein Platz für tiefe Gedanken. Alles ist gestellt. Alles auf der Überholspur in die Bedeutungslosigkeit. Niemand nimmt sich Zeit für die kleinen Dinge. Niemand lauscht mehr dem Regen in der Nacht. Höher, schneller, weiter und ignoriert das Blut an den Händen. Was hätte aus uns allen werden können? Vereint für eine gute Welt. Doch der Schein des Glänzenden hat das wahre Glück ersetzt.

Most of the stories and poems in this audiobook were compiled from handwritten notes in journals I've been keeping for several years.

"The Lighthouse" is a moving tale that's as close to poetry as prose and offers a beautifully upbeat ending. "Grandma Brown" is a nostalgic and emotionally moving tale of familial love.

The inspiration for this book was born years ago, when I encountered a man in his 70s. He opened my eyes to how he had been able to capture a seemingly hidden power to combat evils in the world and his body, such as illness and fear. I wondered how that could be possible. I thought hard and broke sweat over how the mind could help a person fight diseases and infections. He was gracious enough to oblige me his time and share some of his ‘secrets'. Some of these things you will be hearing are gleanings from my numerous conversations with him.

Der Dichter France Prešeren (1800–1849), im Ausdruck Klassizist und Romantiker im Geist, steht unbestritten an der Spitze der slowenischen Literatur. Als Visionär, getrieben von Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, schrieb er die meisten seiner Gedichte in den 1830er Jahren und hob die slowenische Poesie auf Weltniveau. Im Zentrum seiner Poesie stehen die Liebe, existenzielle Not, Nationalgefühl und poetisches Schaffen, doch auch seine satirische Seite ist nicht zu vernachlässigen. Die kosmopolitische siebte Strophe seiner Zdravljica ist heute die slowenische Hymne und könnte durchaus auch die Hymne der Vereinten Nationen sein.
