In Mid February it was “my” Australian Prime Minister
addressing Parliament to say 'Sorry'
to all Indigenous Australians.
A few weeks later “my” German Chancellor
addressed the Israeli Parliament to say:
"The Shoah fills us Germans with shame,"
Two unrelated events?
A ray of hope?
A sign of times changing?
Witnessing the right words spoken at the right moment,
feeling their effect (“do you feel better now or worse ?”)
it is near impossible not to think:
constellation principles are at work at large.
I for one could not stop a sigh of relief escaping
upon reading what took place in the Knesset.
Growing up in the fifties to an increasing awareness
of the horror that had happened before I was born,
at times I had the sense
of being the only one to feel shame.
Then no one wanted to talk
about that part of the German past.
It did not even have a name then.
For Angela Merkel to be invited
to be the first German Chancellor ever
to speak in the Knesset, in German,
opened the chance which she took impeccably
to speak the words:
"The Shoah fills us Germans with shame"
Thank you for making this possible.
