The Quickening

The Snap · The Crack · The Threshold · The Awakening

The moment a man begins to ask: who decided this is reality? Wait - I thought I lived in a world where… The Quickening is the first crack in the lacquer of the given. The opening. The threshold one crosses, often clumsily, often through tools that work from the outside in - until one day it becomes clear that the true movement was always from inside out, from the heart, from the Logos already lodged there.

    The Image Still Sits Somewhere Deep in Me

    I still carry that image somewhere deep inside. When the Wall fell. I was in ninth grade in a beautiful little harmonious provincial town in Freedom. I remember coming late to Danish class that morning. A habit I dragged around with me for too many years. I don't know how much…

    Not Pleasant to Write - But I Write It Anyway

    Not pleasant to write. I do it anyway. We are living through a period in history where it no longer makes sense to discuss 'what we think', but where we must instead relate to 'what is'. We have reached that point in the story where the veils fall, and where what we for decades…

    Honest Truth-Seeking: The Force That Holds Life Together Against Dissolution

    I have used the phrase 'Honest Truth-Seeking' several times these last months. And since this business with Truth - or the word Truth itself - leads to enormous confusion, offense - if not direct rage - I had better elaborate and explain it. I was barely 30 years old when it…

    Why I Was Left-Wing Until I Was Forty

    "What made you left-wing until you were about forty, Thomas?" The short answer? Because I believed it was the only decent thing to be. I grew up in a home where people voted left. In a broader family that did the same. And in an environment where everyone around me - musicians,…

    I Understand Why Some Are Angry I Only Speak This Way Now

    I understand why some are angry I only speak this way now. About Islamism. That I didn't see it before. And that I - like so many others - helped support the development that today weakens our culture, our freedom and our cohesion. What many may not know, because they haven't…

    There Is Something About a Saturday Morning When the Sound of the City Comes Through the Window Unbidden

    There is something about a Saturday morning, when the sound of the city comes through the window without you asking for it, that makes you listen more carefully than on a weekday, because the day does not yet have a…

    What Is Required of Us - A Civilisation on Holy Saturday

    The last four days I have written about Folk, about Faith, about Civilisation and about Incompatibility. About how a people is not an administrative construct. About how everyone believes in something - and that the…

    When Reality Keeps Contradicting What We're Told to Believe

    I find it so difficult to just let this obvious pattern pass. Not because it necessarily overturns the entire understanding of health - or the programming they relentlessly subject you to - but because it touches…

    Change Doesn't Come From Elections - It Comes From Seeing

    Someone wrote to me yesterday that I was ridiculous. I know. Look at me!?? So yes. 🤷🏼‍♂️ With that said. If you're disappointed by yesterday's election result, let's briefly remind each other how change actually…

    The Reality Check This Week You'll Hate

    The reality check this week you'll hate. I was in church yesterday, and the sermon circled around something as seemingly simple and yet so elusive as time. It wasn't a sermon about years or historical epochs, but about…

    Why Am I Here - The Question We Postpone Until It's Too Late

    WHY AM I HERE? A few thoughts from today's walk with weighted vest in the North Jutland winter sun. When I look back on the last twenty-five years, I must admit that much of what I then called will was in reality…

    When Someone Gets Angry at What You Write - You Are Probably Not There to Tell Them What to Think

    There are several people who in recent months have been bothered by what I write - and they have not been slow to tell me so in the comments. That is completely fine and I understand it well. Perhaps they imagine that I…

    I tried to gather every point from my inner "if only..." lists

    I've tried to gather every point from my inner "if only..." lists. The ones I've carried around through life. I do it in the hope that they might serve as a small terror and warning - for anyone who might be tangled in…
