Polarities,
the
Forces of Evil, review, therapy in the morning 2012,07,29
To
my four
daughters, re yesterday’s outing, forest roads
Forest
roads
are not highways. There are many unforeseen dangers I cannot
possibly enumerate
right now. Last March when I did the small contract in Nahwitti,
one crew cab
found its final resting place just across from the park and one
guy, as he
passed me, was suddenly on two wheels, the right front and right
rear still on
road and the other two in the air over the ditch (because of the
momentum of
his speed he managed to recover and continued his homeward bound
trip. Often
the soft shoulders or a hole that develops by a culvert can
throw a vehicle out
of control and God knows what can happen. To put four daughters
into a truck
and then drive with a truck a young woman has not driven or not
very much, it
worried me. It is one of the good things in life that those, who
have never had
a devastating experience, act out of ignorance and their natural
confidence (which
is a good thing) carries them along. The Ganghofer book I picked
up in Germany,
one of the novels, speaks of “herz-zerreisendes Leid” of what
can and has
happened, when the old woman (the mother: she is not really that
old but one
only gets the feeling she is) does not want the daughter to go
alone up to the
Alm to look after the cows in the summer – she knows what can
happen and what
has happened to her in fact, except that the man who compromised
her was an
honourable guy (he died later in a hunting mishap, which caused
the young and
recently married woman “herz-zerreisendes Leid”. I personally of
course have
seen and experienced it. I will only mention one event but which
did not affect
me directly and yet in a way it did, which I shall not mention:
when the young
forester in Torfmoorhoelle came home from Russia, and his young
wife,
over-joyed and thrilled he survived the Russian
“Gefangenschaft”, then overfed
him – it was not known what this can do to a person totally
starved – and he
ended up in the hospital and died. 
I
never in all my life forgot the crying of the woman as she
received the news –
I happened to work nearby and was witness to it. (And this happens to many
people, if only the
person/people affected would be forewarned and then avoid
tragedy.)

Wilhelm, Kornbach, just ramblings, re visit

(re
Daughter Shell and Will and Fiancé’s visit in New York) brings back memory, thanks,
Will (and Erin
and Shell) (Occasional ramblings by "ancestor" -- first
immigrant to
Canada – Wilhelm--, for potential children's child,
philosophically inclined, a
lover of books, good books and a thinking young person. Some of
the best
of the books I have should be a good start towards a future
professor in the
extended family. Otherwise, we need good carpenters (Joseph,
the father
of Jesus), plumbers, loggers, house and furniture, etc.
builders. Farmers,
especially, practical people in short ...)

I was exactly to the month Shell's age when I was in New York;
education: Grade
12/13 but trained as Forestry Worker, which gave me a pay cheque
if and when
needed. Ich wuensche euch eine gute Reise und Heimkehr. (I was
in New York,
summer, 1957)

Had talk with Ahmed, one of the Egyptian pharmacists here. Can
you imagine, a
land that has no forests! You cannot have a chain of
pharmacies, but own
only two, maybe three, have a good income but cannot get filthy
rich, as
here. Apotheker, similar to Germany, no business store with it,
just the
pharmacy. In Egypt, the rich live behind high walls, the middle
class in
apartments, and the real lower in shacks ...He has family and
children in Egypt
and sees them, what? once or twice per year. He was four years
in Saudi
Arabia where the temp. goes up to 60 degrees. He is Moslem and
could not accept
my coffee I drank in Ellen's house while we looked at my
pictures. One of the
finest corner in Kornbach is perhaps my sister Trina and her
husband's house,
nestled against the forest with a little "Weiher" and large
"Buche"
on the other side of little pond. The forest is right behind
them. 
You couldn't ask for a finer place. In front is some, a, field. 
The place
finally sold, after years on the market. As you know, I am a
very strong
promoter of retaining roots and language and tradition. 
Lorraine and
Husband and children should really aim to buy back their
ancestral place and we
need to do likewise. With the $250,000 my four women now earn
(and I am
fully aware what life can have in store for a person -- I have a
book, written
by a rabbi: when bad things happen to good people; bad things
happened to me,
by the "cheaters" but it all always ended up positive for me
while my
cheaters died, got sick, or were punished in some way, everyone
of them. 
It has to do with the fact that I have a guardian angel that led
and guided my
life, gave me my biggest desire to be educated in the truest
sense of the word,
and then put the brakes on for me in making it big in industry
(which is now
left to one of my son-in-law: I am in the unenviable position
that if one of my
four daughters, plus my 30 year younger wife, manage of a
pharmacy with good
salary and a very intelligent woman, can still find herself a
super-duper guy,
and I have and am instructing here how to conduct herself when I
am gone --
read a book years ago: "Medieval People by Eileen Power. This
large farmer
and rich man marries a young woman. He is a realist and a very
intelligent man, like this one you are reading now. He tells
her wife how
she must act and live and run the household and deal with the
servants of the
kitchen and fields. Indeed, he even instructs her what to wear
when
attending church, so as to remain a credit to him, her late
husband, and to the
name of the family. ((If you read Chaucer's Canterbury
Tales,14th
century, fun stuff, yet very revealing about the historical
climate and
development in Europe, you will have an idea of the life, time,
customs, etc.
of late Medieval people, partly modern and partly old-fashioned
...

by the way, in connection with the punishment of my enemies: the
last men who
got punished: I dealt with Bob, an 86 year old to buy property,
eleven acres.
Bob is a man one could trust with one's wife, a sack of gold and
the finest
food money can buy and, if instructed, to neither touch anyone,
you know you
could trust him. But somehow, for whatever reasons, on this
occasion, Bob
broke his word, even though the lawyer had instructions sitting
on his desk for
about two weeks. Bob ended up waiting for four days in a dry
well on his
mining property, wondering if this may be the end of his life on
this Mother Earth. 
I was traveling in Vancouver, or I am sure we would have gone
into action much
sooner. -- I have recently decided to go vocal with this
cheating part of
those I met throughout the years, so as to warn future business
partners, etc.
not to touch me, lest God will strike those idiots down, as he
finally punished

wir brauchen groessere saegemuehle in Port Hardy

Ueber meine zweiwoechige Reise: werde bald darueber schreiben und auf web, www.fichtelgebirgekanada.com rauftun. bin sehr beschaeftigt, doch ist mir wichtig. Unterdessen, lesst was ich vor einem Jahr mal ueber unser leben hier schrieb und ueber auswandern. wir brauchen eine muehle, so die groesse von www.eglo.de in Weissenstadt, Fichtelgebirge. Mir ist es egal wer es baut, nur, dass es gebaut wird. Wir haben grosse Forst Resourcen und verkaufen rundhold wie noch nie an Asien. wir brauchen arbeit fuer immer mehr Indianer die heranwachsen und nicht mehr von der alten gewohnheit leben koennen. es wuerde bestimmt allerhand unterstuetzung geben. aber ich kann nicht persoenlich immer meine resourcen ausgeben um dies zu foerdern, so sehr ich interessiert bin. mehr spaeter.

family economics, common interests

Dear Family,
    as you know, one of my intentions of going to germany: to
visit sawmills. i was successful in managing to find a few -- the
gelo man,
Wolf, talked in English to me for over one hour, but he is
fighting for the
survival of a 100 year sawmill; nevertheless, stay in touch with
him, as he
tried to invest a few million euros in our west coast area.

as you know, my latest decision re my burial place: a cemetery
where ashes feed
a tree, a beech tree in my case. Have asked CBC man, Gregor to
investigate
where such a forest cemetery is or if possible to start one here
if there is
enough time for me as a choice. I have about $4500 coming (I hope
they do
not declaire bankruptcy and the money is lost -- it is called
capitalism!) from
the insurance paid out now, through Yates ... he has detais, his
own cemetery
in Parkville, on right side as you enter the Parkville area, going
to Port
alberni and Cathedral GRove .... and $2500 from Canada Pension, as
a present to
be rid of yet another pensioner with monthly payments.

our aim: family business: (aristocrats made sure their unmarried
daughters and
sons would enter a monastery or cloister so they would have secure
and
protected life, just picked up an interesting book re the topic
from
Schwarzerach Benedict cloister and its 1200 year histroy ... very
good books,
and bought for 47 euros ... took ten days to send the slow way ...
(same as
fast way, as she pointed out; may sometimes be send more slowly)

a family where the four ladies in my harem earn a cool $255,000
per year (even
in future one of them may be going back to school, or, etc. etc.) 
(it had
never entered my head that someday the women make the money!) and
so obviously,
with, let's say one or two other families joining, it will be no
problem to
extend and further (the other way around) my forestry/wood related
enterprises,
adding real estate, valuable properties that can be had; e.g.,
land with timber
on it where the timber pays for the purchase ... (WOMEN MUST BE
CAREFUL THEY DO
NOT TOTALLY OUTSMART THEMSELVES: JOB, KITCHEN, BABIES, NO WAY!)
(THERE IS A
BOOK NOW IN GERMAN: THE ENDANGERED MALE, SEE MAGAZINE I GAVE YOU.)


1) tree thinning, when we start up again (I am in touch with Ralph
Winters, son
of German immigrant like myself; he works for Forestry in
headquarters in
Victoria, and he tells me it has to come from the public, the
request, to start
up again; (I have done about 1500 ha but had to constantly train
crews at my
time and expense;)

2) shake blocking: i am waiting for this project to go ahead, but
there is lots
on the coast, and perhaps one of the sons in/from one of the mills
i visited
can come and help me -- it does not have to be a son in law! 

3) timber sales once we are strong enough; (that's where the realy
money can be
if you take your time and are not in a rush)

4) we leave planting to others, as there are established companies
now, save to
buy such a company if it were possible, but in the meantime, we
have enough to
chew on.

5) raw land development, that is where the big money was made
historically in
USA, and here we are only at the beginning;

6) a large piece of land, to be re-zoned (I have done it in the
Port Coquitlam
area, for nursing home), for housing development, affordable small
housing with
large wood component,and large garden for vegie growing; the
mobiles must be
wiped out as they are a disgrace in this rich country. I realize
that people
cannot afford a house anymore and mobiles more than ever seems to
be the
solution, but in our area with cheap land and wood so cheap, it
should be
possible for ambitious entrepreneur, with long range financing and
low interest
-- not big and rich houses as Ivy intend across the Bay!

7) The family mansion with Ellen the lead person, must be good
size for common
meals and then add a few small houses -- there are such
developments now, like
the one in Langley, where woman architect comes home and can sit
down for
supper and things are done commonly, while having ones privacy in
ones on small
house. (The Hutterites are still working together. (the children
too have
a common person to attend to while mother is working for money)

8) remember: the banks have many customers; the churches have many
members; the
unions are strong because many belong; large families working
together can
create economic security for everyone; (just believe me: if I had
only one of
my relatives to step in with "petty" cash to help me in a crisis,
I
would be rich like many of my colleagues, and would not be a
beggar in my old
age: "Die Herren sind von einem edlen Haus, sie sehen unzufrieden
aus. And, "Jeder
sieht
ein Bild des das er werden soll, solang er das nicht ist, ist
sein Friede
nimmer voll." "Der grosse Mann, edle Padagog, der sich zum Ruhm
ein Heldenvolk erzog." from Faust -- what is meant by
"Heldenvolk",
not to be misinterpret!)

9) today, you can still have your own advantage in your
larger salary,
to make sure that your tough job is rewarded and you are not
levelled to the
point of the average and lazy person who may lose incentive and
become a
slagger, depending on the hard working ones. 

10) there are books to back this up.

11) Be aware, we have a tough (maybe scientific breakthroughs will
help)
century ahead, and act accordingly. (Kornbach during WWII had no
problem
feeding itself; money was of no use.) Look ahead. do not be
selfish and
let small individual emotions of jealousy or whatever stand in
your way. 
How to stay healthy has also something to do with it -- look at
booklets i
bought in Cloister book store. (Look at one of the small books i
brought home:
Was macht uns krank und was gesund, something like that and you
know what
happened to the cheaters in my life. "Gott liebt einen
froehlichen
Geber." -- remember, not everyone has the privilege and
inclination
to study the humanities as I did, necessary as this is and many
professors in
this field keep pointing this out.

12) be aware, i do not alway have the energy level where it is
possible without
that real younger and energetic successor to carry through with my
knowledge and
intentions.
