[Peer]

Here we go again.
Big brother is watching you.

Don't hide: Stare back at him untill he looks away.

Everybody in my street can see I drive a white 1991 Peugeot 405.
Everybody I phone sees my telephonenumber on his display.
I am admin of my own forum and I can see peoples IP-adresses so I can ban them if neccesary.
When I go out to make music I tell the audience who I am and where I come from.
If you google my name "Peer van der Hout" you get pages and pages.
Ever tried googling your own name between " "?

I once visited the lecture of an Indian Swami.
The guy was really enlightened and he hit me right between the eyes.
After he finished we could ask questions so I asked him:
Please give me a good advice. (very open question).
He thought for a while and then he said:

Do not phollow like sheep.

I never forgot that as you see (that was 35 years ago)

Those ads at the side of google are there for people who need them, the sheep.
Most of the time I don't even notice them.
You don't have to read them and if you don't Gmail still functions perfectly.

Marten Luther King had a dream and he stood up and spoke right out.
Dare to dream with him because you see this dream is coming true.
Yes, he was shot because he was alone but if we all stand up to be seen and heard they will think twice before they shoot again.
Let us stand up with so many that they (whoever they are) have not enough bullets to kill us.

I have nothing to hide, on the contrary: I want to be seen and heard.
Would you believe somebody who spoke to you from behind a fence or a firewall or a mask?
Would you believe an unknown voice speakin' to you from the other room, not wanting to say his name?
Why do you hide behind nicks?
Who are you?

Do not follow like sheep.

Stand up and be heard, be seen so they will know there are real people wanting to talk to them and ask real questions that they will have to answer with real answers.

Dare to dream and share your dream with the world and don't let it slip into oblivion like sheep.
