Station 3 · my way
Awakening
The guardian. From his fine lines, I want to discover the meaning of my life. The linearity shows me that my personality and my character have long been formed and that my thinking knows no limits upward. I have to go on — but where to?

Futao Fujiii (Japan)
Ever inquiring, children discover the world. Adolescents already develop their own logic. It is also about putting many things into question, rejecting some things and finding one’s own positions. The search for something to reject becomes the center of attention.
This also helps develop a sense of what is good and what is bad — for them and for the community. The social structure is revealed slowly. Criticism lies in the foreground. On the opposite, a feeling for what leads us on needs to be developed. The attitude of rejection, necessary on the one hand, needs to be complemented by an attitude of acceptance.
But only the two of them together amount to a meaningful whole.
For the first time, the meaning of life itself becomes a subject of discussion and searching. This undertaking is made more difficult by the fact that the previous generation one-sidedly forced a fragmenting reasoning, leading into isolation (such as “Me, Inc.”), and thereby lost sight of the whole. We need to discover again that we are incorporated into a more encompassing whole on every level.
What is this encompassing whole?
