“Peace be with you!<\/strong>”<\/p>\n This greeting, which exists in the most different variations and religious expressions, is consciously chosen. We human beings have a responsibility for each other and for our planet<\/strong>, which we can only really realize in peace and freedom.<\/p>\n I am a 100% European and believe in the honest values of functioning democracies, which can be found in the best constitutions and principles around the world. (see e.g.: Universal Declaration of Human Rights<\/a>)<\/p>\n As a “culture person<\/strong>“, my main interest is for the arts, literature & culture, but I have also been interested in “digital change” for over 20 years, since I started my first blog attempts<\/a> back in 1999 and since the turn of the millennium – at the time of the first Internet boom – when I was \u201cExecutive Director of Business Development” for an US-Israeli start-up in New York City<\/strong>, where I lived for 12 years.<\/p>\n In New York & Long Island I had founded two companies and for some years I had realized the “American Dream<\/strong>” with family, house, children, garden, a dog and cats, but I had also recognized and experienced the cracks and various problems in the society of the USA – including a deep-rooted racism.<\/p>\n Very young I began to travel the world<\/strong> and have later – as a “business man” and “brand ambassador\u201d worked with clients in over 35 countries in Asia and Europe. In addition to the practical relationship with the USA, I have a love for France<\/strong> and, for some years now, also for Japan; democracies which, like Germany, have a long-term responsibility to uphold human dignity and human rights on this earth and to work for an ecologically sustainable future<\/strong> – even if the governments of these countries act in some phases quite contrary.<\/p>\n This makes it all the more important for us as citizens of these countries to work for positive change<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Not only as a father of many children I therefore see my responsibility to write, curate information and share knowledge. My topics can be found on this website and in some social media.<\/p>\n Life writes its own stories and a human walks, stumbles, falls down, stands up again – sometimes he suffers, sometimes he despairs; sometimes he rejoices, falls in love, marvels at the wonders of nature and the universe…<\/p>\n After many experiences and adventures I rather arrived there: with a lively reverence for creation and an impatient curiosity<\/strong> to learn more, to know more and to create.<\/p>\n You can find out what I am currently up to on the NOW page<\/a>.<\/p>\n I am also happy to occasionally \/ still act as an \u201cInspirator<\/a>” who discovers “core statements” and develops potentials in a direct dialogue with proven methods – these are “services<\/a>” in a selected and holistic framework.<\/p>\n If you want to know more, you can find me in some social networks – or write me an email<\/a> directly. I always answer (although maybe only after some time) – unless it is spam, unworthy or stupid.<\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n Wigbert Boell<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>Share This Story, Choose Your Platform!<\/h4>
