German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has coined the term ‘turning point’. It became a kind of winged term and was mentioned repeatedly in many places. A powerful word, in my opinion - a turning point. But who is virtually authorised to use such a term at a particular time or situation? Who defines when times change, when they change so significantly that we can really speak of a turning point - and furthermore: a turning point towards and away from what? Sometimes, in our powerlessness and helplessness, we have a tendency to use big words instead of remaining humbly silent. Our own inability to take influential action is thus glossed over and we turn away from our powerlessness towards the impressive power of language. But this does not change anything: words can be very powerful and impressive - but without authority they are also ineffective and ultimately nothing more than empty words. Good for those who have the wisdom not to be blinded by this.

I wish you an extraordinary day!
