Poems nearly for free - Bolz, Hermann R.

Résumé :
It's not always easy to open up and allow others a glimpse into your inner self. As individuals, we have become accustomed to closing off our innermost selves and keeping them to ourselves. Perhaps we have become a little ill as a result. We carry too heavy a burden of what lies hidden within us. I thank everyone who has encouraged me to write down my thoughts. I have realized that these thoughts are not mine alone. Within I found those of my ancestors as well as those of my loved ones, my colleagues, but also those of people I know less well. Thinking, guessing, letting yourself drift is something primal, fun, sometimes curious, sometimes a little more satisfied with yourself. This helps us and all of us. Perhaps we should think a little bit more again?

Biographie:
Hermann Roland Bolz, born 1952 in Kaiserslautern, experienced a happy childhood and youth there. Inspired by his father, who was an aviation enthusiast, he took up model flying at an early age and, building on this, gliding at the age of 14, which he still practices today as a flight-instructor. After graduating from high school, he enlisted in the German Air Force for two years. His military service was overshadowed by the dramatic and tragic events surrounding the Israeli Olympic team, which he experienced directly as a deputy guard commander at the F?rstenfeldbruck Airbase in 1972, and which had a lasting effect on his attitude to life. He then studied forestry in Freiburg/Breisgau. His subsequent professional career included numerous stations within and outside the forestry administration of Rhineland-Palatinate. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, he worked as an official assistant in Thuringia, as an administrative modernizer in the Rhineland-Palatinate State Chancellery and, last but not least, as a development aid worker in Jordan. Until his retirement in 2019, he was director of the Central Office of the Forestry Administration in Neustadt an der Weinstra?e. Hermann Roland Bolz is married and father of seven children. He is influenced by his forestry profession, which is oriented toward broad time horizons and complex natural and socioeconomic systems, and is continually inspired by the unique world perspective of a glider pilot. Central to his actions is the desire to fulfill his responsibility to future generations. For this reason, he is now intensively involved with the current challenges facing society. The focus is on the question of sustainable development of mankind.
