Wachsende Ringe



Lieber Freund:

Ich glaube an das Alter...

Arbeiten und Altwerden, das ist es, was das Leben von uns erwartet.

Und dann eines Tages alt sein und noch lange nicht alles verstehen, nein,
aber anfangen,
aber lieben,
aber ahnen,
aber zusammenhaengen mit Fernem und Unsagbarem, bis in die Sterne hinein.

(Rainer Maria Rilke an Arthur Holitscher)

There is a continuous need to put this issue on the table and not to ignore it. Learning to vocalize the emotions and perceptions and to accept the various standpoints surrounding them.

The complication of the matter are illustrated by the comments made by Jessie Duarte.

We need a lot of good will and also lot's of patience, endurance and more hard work, but perhaps even a change of heart and something like a conversion on some parts to resent hate-speech and practice no-tolerance towards this derogatory practice.

Re-visiting LTS

 Rev. Radikobo Ntsimane, who was teacher, pastor and rector at the LTS for more than a decade and is now a lecturer at the University of KZN and also at the Lutheran Theological Institute in Pietermaritzburg returned to LTS this week to teach  History of the Church in South Africa at LTS. Here he is both in a serious and playful mood. We are hopeful that he will return regularly to teach and preach at the LTS.
