Only 2 weeks more.....
So, I am sitting here in my boring office again. I still have 14 more days on the sea before I can leave this cruise-ship and relax again.
I spend most of my time reading the newspaper and answering the phone...ohh yes, I think I have seen EVERYTHING that is possible to see on the internet. Do you remember the artist Hornsleth that I wrote about earliere? He decide his price for the paintings in a very simple way. The smaller "HORNSLETH" is written on the painting, the cheaper it is.
Talking about money.... A 21 years old guy from Denmark just won 22 million danish kroner in "lotto" (A game based only on luck). 22 million is...hmm...Yes, a lot of money..... This guy is just a little farmer from the far west in jutland. He has never seen Copenhagne, his own capital, never tried any other jobs than at a fish factory, and now he is an milionaire. Damn, what would I do if I won 22 milion kroner....Hmm...okay, it is stupid even to think about, because I will never even have the chance of doing that....but still.... a library would always be nice to have....
The biggest problem will most likely be the freedom that one have when getting so much money in once.........Freedom is always a bit difficult...or what?
In truth that which you call freedom is the strongest of these chains, though its links glitter in the sun and dazzle the eyes. (Kahlil Gibran)

Freedom freedom freedom... A confusing but rather interesting topic was touched. No wonder I attempted writing my EE on it. Of course, that did not bring me anywhere close to the answers I was looking for but to more and more questions.
You know, Fromm was using this very nice expression 'an escape from freedom'.. Quite a proper way to call it. I mean, is it not what we're constantly doing - looking for a clever way to escape from our own freedom? Of course, once again it all comes to the understanding of the concept 'freedom' itself that differs from individual to individual...
Damn, I shall stop here before I was accused of ranting about 'freedom' in order to try to sound intelligent. Can't really say much with those few words when it comes to such huge topics, so I am not really sure what was the aim of me writing this comment. Perhaps, simply couldn't resist after reading your entry...
