Erik Pevernagie
“Imagination is not an escape from reality or a denial of truth, but a realm of transformation, building a mental and emotional structure to resist disturbing external harassment. ( "The umbrella of our imagination")”
Erik Pevernagie

Erik Pevernagie
“To encounter beauty is to experience an opening, widening our emotions’ horizon and lifting us out of the narrow corridors of listlessness. It disarms the mechanisms of indifference and blindness, replacing them with awe, wonder, or a sense of transcendence. (“Absence of Beauty is like Hell“ )”
Erik Pevernagie

Erik Pevernagie
“We do not merely absorb reality: we can shape reality. Our consciousness is not split from how we view the world: it creates space for momentum and original undertakings. ("The umbrella of our imagination")”
Erik Pevernagie

“When nature no longer enchants us, we must face disenchantment, the sense that the world has lost its wonder. If we suffer from the loss of authentic experience, it is because beauty has been commodified or simulated, and the sublime has become unreachable. (“Absence of Beauty is like Hell“ ).”
Erik Pevernagie

Erik Pevernagie
“If we want to reconcile passion with patience, we should treasure endurance, the middle path, allowing weathered engagement with life without burning out or breaking down. Indeed, endurance is a valuable companion. ("The umbrella of our imagination")”
Erik Pevernagie
