Who has them? The time.

If there’s one thing I feel I’m lacking here, just to go back to my initial observations, it’s time (I don’t mean the weekly).

The day is full and despite technical progress, we seem to take less and less time for encounters.

That’s why a lot of things can only be done through appointments – that’s how I perceive it – so that we can prepare ourselves in the best possible way. Spontaneity is sometimes overwhelming.

And yet there are people who manage to touch me again and again by saying to hashtag#Zeitklärungen:

“I’ll make time for you” or “I’ll make it happen”

It’s something active here – a deliberate statement and a matter of prioritization.

What an honour and pleasure it was to experience Peter Claus Lamprecht in Hamburg again. You are a great person. Thank you very much for your valuable time and for showing me Hamburg for the second time. Again and again an enthusiasm to discover a city from the point of view of “insiders” – I was able to experience details and the contrasts that are nowhere to be found.

Thank you very much for our valuable exchange, for your thoughtful contribution to the reading and for allowing me to experience MOIA electric shuttles. The hashtag#MOIA experience reminded me of Kenyan hashtag#Matatus, only with more order in every way.

And thank you so much, Rosemarie Burmeister, for your amazing support since we’ve joined here on LinkedIn.

The fact that you made it possible to be back to Hamburg earlier to meet me touches me deeply. Your extremely constructive contributions to the reading were mega-enriching. Thank you for sharing your valuable experiences with the audience.

Thank you both for supporting the mission of “kohero magazin – for Intercultural Cohesion” and for going beyond diversity.

Thank you very much, Sarah Zaheer for giving us such a wonderful welcome and for your strong moderation at the book reading in the Kohero Salon.

More about that as soon as the video is ready.

Now over to you, dear reader:

Who do you take the time for today or soon?

… And do you also allow spontaneous encounters?
