zon 1

My Love is symbolized by the Sun. 



The Sun rises majestically, but as it rises, it is always fixed and it never really rises. It invades the entire earth with its light, it fecundates [bevrucht] all the plants with its heat, there is no eye which does not enjoy it. 

One could say that there is almost no good on the earth, which doesn’t come from its beneficial influence. How many things would not have life without it? Yet, it does all this without clamor [misbaar, luidruchtigheid], without saying even a word, without demanding anything. 

It does not bother anyone. It doesn’t even take up any space on earth which it invades with its light, men can do whatever they want. In fact, while they enjoy the goodness of the Sun, they do not pay any attention to it, leaving it unobserved, among them.


[Aug. 12th, 1912
