HOLOCAUST VS CAPITALISM

The question...

Why where there not any protests?
Why did no one do anything?
Why did the people shut up?

How come they let this happen?

How come they let other people die?
How come the power killed the innocent?

Did they not see?

How come the sick and poor had to die when there were so many rich and wealthy people?
How come the rich and wealthy people did not share with the sick and poor?

Why where the working class dumb and the middle class numb?

Fear?

Fear of being wrong?
Fear of loosing what you have?
Fear of not getting what you want?

Give up your desire.
Become free of shame.
Be the one who cannot be blamed.

Who is there to blame?

God?

Why did we not do anything?

Money is the answer.

SYNONYM FOR MONEY: Power.

Desire. More.

Addiction: Even if you have enought. You want more.

We need another drug.

The world needs another solution.

God.

Addiction. Never ending desire.

The greatest power.

Human. Be humble.

Answer the question.

Why?

God?

You cannot lose God, but you can always lose your money.

What are you afraid of?

I am afraid of loosing my mind.

But I also know that the one who has God has no fear.

BIRTHDAY PROJECT:< SPIRIT>< SOUL>< ART>< BODY>

About

1. JESSICA KARLÉN AND ALBERT EINSTEIN ARE HAVING A WALK THROUGH HUMLEGÅRDEN IN STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN.

JESSICA KARLÉN (voice over): I was having this walk with Albert Einstein the other day...

YOU (think): HOW'S THAT POSSIBLE?!

ALBERT AND JESSICA STOPS BY THE VERY THOUGHT GAZING UP IN HEAVEN WONDERING WHO IS THERE AND WHOS THOUGHT IT IS?

YOU (think even harder): How is that possible?! Albert Einstein and Jessica Karlén having a walk?! The year is 2015?!?!?! I mean come on. This is crazy...

JESSICA KARLÉN: Since matter is energy and energy can never be destroyed nor created.

LOGIC (whisper): Albert Einstein is matter.

And the wind immediately transformed itself to the breathe of Jessica Karlén.

<RESPIRATION>
<INSPIRATION>
</RESPIRATION>

JESSICA KARLÉN (continues): So I was on this ordinary everyday walk with Albert Einstein in Humlegården the other day...

(NO ONE FINALLY INTERRUPTS)

JESSICA KARLÈN (to Albert) : So. Albert. Are you coming to my birthday party?

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Of course, my dear... Why would I not?

JESSICA KARLÉN: Oh dear... Albert. How come you sound so brttish?

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Sorry dear. I mean... Entschuldigung... Meine Liebling... Warum?

JESSICA KARLÉN: It's just that... I don't know. I have been thinking... About this birthday party... If I put a lot of energy and effort in it, you know— buying a new dress, cooking a shitloads of food, hiring this super mega expensive rockNroll band, inviting all my friends and enemies... What if no one shows up? What is the point?

ALBERT EINSTEIN: The point is to do what you are supposed to do...

GOD: HEY! That is my line!

JESSICA KARLÉN: But I mean, like... Where did all the energy go? Is it all wasted?

ALBERT EINSTEIN: It's never a waste dear. It did not disappear... It just went to... To nothing....

JESSICA KARLÈN: But...

ALBERT EINSTEIN (interrupts): No buts... The trees will need it, the air, the wind that blows and the pollution of the bees. Jessica, you need to remember you did not loose anything. It was just something else that won. Nothing is something... Even if the name of this something right now is nothing.


JESSICA KARLÉN: But this nothingness?!

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Metaphysi
cs is not really my thing, ok? You should talk to Aristotle. He is coming to your party right?


JESSICA KARLÉN: I think so but..

ALBERT EINSTEIN: No fucking but... Sorry, no pun intended. But also, remember. If you make a misstake. You will learn from it. And if you learn from it— it was not a misstake.

JESSICA KARLÉN: Albert... Did you just steal a quote from someone?

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Sorry girl. YOLO.

JESSICA KARLÉN: I don't know if I can trust you anymore.

ALBERT EINSTEIN: I don't need your trust. Just your willingness. Come on. Let's make love under the tree over there.

JESSICA KARLÉN: But....

ALBERT EINSTEIN: I love your butt.

JESSICA KARLÉN: Can we name our baby Nothing?

ALBERT EINSTEIN: No! Never!

JESSICA KARLÉN: Then Never it is.

A project dies, another starts (conclusion- look at the end)
Is history repeated? (bullshit)
Then how can something new be created?
The future continues.

An initiativ.
A baby.
The likelihood of a new initiative is as possible as every possibility of expectation. (crystalized fantasy)
There are unique ideas behind every thought, since every human being that thinks is one unique combination.
YOU have a specific combination of DNA? (proof needed?)
YOU have something to do?
YOU are here for a reason? (Proof superfluous)
What is your purpose? (RSVP)
What is the meaning of your life? (File attached * * * LOST SOULS PASSWORD* * *)
Every baby that is born is new (Look above)
You can created something that is not yet created.(Paradox?)
Is everything that now exists just a combination of previously things that existed? Therefor not unique? (Antinomy?)
How many ideas can be born before we die in the same way?
Do we end up at the same place?
What is a place?
Are we everybody together in the same now?
Back to reality. PERIOD!

P.S PHONE RINGS* *

JESSICA KARLÉN: … Yes?

ARISTOTLE: Hi, its me. Aristotle.

JESSICA KARLÉN: Oh, hi! How is it going?

ARISTOTLE: Well I'm fine... It's just that... I wont make it to your party.

JESSICA KARLÉN: I'm so sorry to hear that. Why is that?

ARISTOTLE: I just heard your conversation with Einstein about being matter. And it's just that... I got soul. And I can not transform that shit.

JESSICA KARLÉN: What do you mean?

ARISTOTLE: You know this thing about the genius? That the genius is the spirit that the body was born with? It's just that... I think my matter is holding me back.

JESSICA KARLÉN: I understand. So you feel forced to come?

ARISTOTLE: Yes. Kind of. And you know. If it is not free. It's not art.
