For my mate Alexandra:
“She was too quiet, or she was too loud. She took things too seriously, or not seriously at all. She was too sensitive, or too cold-hearted. She hated with every fiber of her being, or loved with all her heart. There was no in-between for her. It was either all or nothing.
Your presence I miss, Your memory I treasure:
Alexandra 17.09.1969- 30.08.2008
She smiles to mask the pain in her heart,
she laughs to conceal the tears in her eyes.
But behind her smile, there was a story you would never understand.

I light this candle in honour of
Micha 01.Januar 1960 - 13.September 2022
In honouring memory of my dear friend Michael "Micha" Gottschalk.
He was always a good man, too good for this world, and in the end he was broken by this world.
„Und die Seele unbewacht
Will in freien Flügen schweben,
Um im Zauberkreis der Nacht
Tief und tausendfach zu leben.“
Hermann Hesse
Lieber Micha, es war schön, daß ich dich kennenlernen durfte.
Mögest du für ewig als heller Stern am Himmel leuchten.
Your presence I miss, Your memory I treasure.

I light this candle in memory of all my ancestors, named and nameless, known and unknown, remembered and forgotten, from all of my lineages. May they know that even those whose names are long-lost are still honoured, and that I'm grateful for those who have gone before us. This candle I also light for those who have no descendants to light for them. May their souls find peace in knowing that they, too, are honoured and not forgotten.
May I find the way to honour you with the love and respect you deserve.
May I walk proud and mindful in your footsteps.
May you,my lost family and kin long gone - beloved ones - welcome me at your hearthfire when my time is come.
Thank you for your guidance and love.
