We live in fascinating times




Rudolf Steiner:  "... how difficult it is to understand the age in which we ourselves are living. Many things in our time are not only incomprehensible but often repellent, disagreeable, horrifying in a certain respect, and if we look at life merely as it is perceptible to the senses, it is impossible not to feel indignation and disgust. It is different, however, for one who can perceive the human and historical connections. Things are by no means what they seem! Traits may show themselves in life today for which the onlookers have, quite understandably, nothing but censure and indignation. And yet all the time, even in the unpleasant elements themselves, there may be something that is intensely fascinating. This will be the case more and more frequently."
