Reply #7: A close friend of mine recently spoke of ‘earthquake weather’

[Jeroen]

He is an artist and his studio is just around the corner from where I live and work. We know each other since art academy, now 15 years ago. We have coffee almost on a daily basis. Anyway, we where in my kitchen and he started to talk about the strange atmosphere outside, in a sense related to the weather or gloomy sky, but of course beyond the weather itself. Hard to describe I guess, but I think ‘earthquake weather’ is exactly what he was referring to. I felt the same thing and I can still feel it in a way.
I have great difficulties to focus on my work and to energize myself for future projects.

It reminds me also of what another friend told me recently. He knows an elder German women and she told him that she felt the same as before WWII in the late thirties. Some sort of presence, a thick silence, as if something is coming.

I wish I could express myself more clearly, but English is not my first language.
Thanks for your post, I enjoyed reading it.
