Thank you very much for your comment. Yo...@servetus<br />Thank you very much for your comment. You always lead me to deeper insight into myself and hit the topic right at the center where I am vaguely stumbling around.<br /><br />For me the special day really is December the 12th. It's the time when I start a new year ;o)<br /><br />You are also right with your other point. I really want to put RA on a pedestal and I admire his 'lived virtue' as far as I see his life.<br />I do not worry overmuch about what I do not know about him, because what I see I like. This does not mean that I do not want to learn more, but also I want to leave him the freedom to act as he likes. I do not want to press some kind of behaviour onto him because he thinks to have to do this for his fans or feels obliged to act in a certain way for them.<br /><br />I think part of my curiosity to learn new things about RA is, that he has so much potential and I want to see it being realised and brought to light. <br />For one I would love him to produce something himself. He gives so much thought to every character aspect, that I think he would be brilliant doing such kind of work.<br />But I also see that this is not a one man project and a lot of surrounding elements have to fit to make such a thing happen. Still I can hope ;o)CDoarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02768482276143704993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9002438504617561405.post-24612552155027052262010-12-19T01:45:51.693+00:002010-12-19T01:45:51.693+00:00Why December 12, if you don't mind my asking? ...Why December 12, if you don't mind my asking? Oder ist es der 2. Advent?<br /><br />I really appreciated this clear-headed enumeration of the attraction points, along with the concession at the beginning that lack of knowledge about certain things may be blinding you to certain aspects of the question (this is something I worry about a lot). <br /><br />It sounds from your post like it's a sort of "lived virtue" that attracts you -- an attitude that then becomes part of his behavior. I find this part of his persona very convincing myself -- it's a kind of refusal to abandon convictions that extends not only into his artistic life and his insistence on delivering good work at all times to his behavior in public with the people who admire the first two. I find the energy that he has for this way of being really impressive and wish I had more of it myself. <br /><br />In a way I wonder if, given what you say, our gaps in our knowledge about him really matter all that much. He acts in a way consistent with what he's said about his principles, and we see all we are ever going to see of him anyway. So we don't really need to know more.<br /><br />(which begs the question of why I am still so curious)<br /><br />Great post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9002438504617561405.post-19245795118949208272010-12-13T20:07:17.510+00:002010-12-13T20:07:17.510+00:00@Traxy
