A Revolutionary Thought

This is a lyric of an album that has been close to my heart for many years: Love Reality by Charmaine. The songs talk about finding God and Hope through all the confusion and challenges of life.

This painting is inspired by the next passage out of The Profundis by Oscar Wilde: “Of course the sinner must repent. But why? Simply because otherwise he would be unable to realise what he had done. The moment of repentance is the moment of initiation. More than that: it is the means by which one alters one’s past. The Greeks thought that impossible. They often say in their Gnomic aphorisms, ‘Even the Gods cannot alter the past.’ Christ showed that the commonest sinner could do it, that it was the one thing he could do.

This is a printable poster titled ‘U Zoekt Maar Mist Niets' Which translated from Dutch means "You search but lack nothing'. It is a quote from the book Belijdenissen bij Aurelius Augustinus (translated by Wim Sleddens) (In English: Confessions by St. Augustine). Here is a little context of the quote in Dutch: "Wat bent u eigenlijk, mijn God? Ja, wat anders dan God de Heer? Wie is er Heer behalve de Heer? En wie is er God behalve onze God? U bent verheven, voortreffelijk machtig en almachtig, barmhartig en rechtvaardig, verborgen en toch aanwezig, mooi en sterk, stabiel en toch ongrijpbaar en zonder zelf te veranderen verandert u alles. U bent nooit nieuw, nooit oud en maakt alles nieuw. De hoogmoedigen maakt u oud zonder dat ze het merken. U bent voortdurend werkzaam en toch altijd in de rust. U haalt naar u toe maar komt niet tekort, U draagt, vervult en beschermt. U schept, u voedt en voltooit. U zoekt maar mist niets."

This printable artwork is titled: "You Are Love And Lonely". This text is also written on the painting and is from a poem written by Gerard Reve in his book 'Nader tot U': “Eigenlijk geloof ik niets, en twijfel ik aan alles, zelfs aan U. Maar soms, wanneer ik denk dat Gij waarachtig leeft, dan denk ik, dat Gij Liefde zijt, en eenzaam, en dat, in dezelfde wanhoop, Gij mij zoekt zoals ik U." My translation of this poem to English is: "To be honest, I don't believe anything, and doubt everything, even You. But at times, when I think that You truly live, then I think, that You are love, and lonely, and that, in the same despair, You look for me as I You."
