The sea and seafaring, with all the mysteries, myths and untamed forces of nature associated with them, have fascinated us humans since the beginning of time. New shores, unknown worlds - of the sea and the waves of love ... The sea and seafaring - an endless treasure of stories, rich in metaphors on our journey through life, into the unknown, into hope.
The stars show the seafarers the way, just as values give us humans orientation - should give us orientation ... And somewhere there is a lighthouse for each of us that attracts us: our destiny in our port of destination, which we head for even when the wind is against us: if we are wise, wisely guided, wisely guiding ourselves.
In this holiday episode in a strange time, I share some thoughts with you about the sea, purpose, values and goals - accompanied by Ernest Hemingway, Eros Ramazzotti, The Police and Pier Paolo Pasolini, among others. How does it all turn out? Listen in and sail along to the last episode before the summer break. Don't forget sunscreen, please!

P.S.
Links to Amazon are meant as a service for snooping and in case you want to feed your Kindle right away, whereas I strongly recommend reading books made of paper, flesh, blood & soul, with a pencil within reach for notes and dog-eared and ready to fold.
And: every stationary bookseller is happy about a purchase and gets you every book in no time at all - sometimes you just turn your hand over two or three times ... The reward for this: when you visit the bookshop, there is always a lot to discover, or you will be discovered by books that on Amazon don't have the slightest idea that you exist.
By the way, I'm happy to receive relevant tips from you as a story insider - not only from the non-fiction and specialist book corner.
