4. Vaccination

My better half and I received our fourth COVID-19 vaccination yesterday morning. The completely new vaccine is supposed to be available later, but we still decided on this vaccination because the third one was a little longer ago.

What is amazing is that my better half was really shaken last night, even though we both only got over a COVID infection in May. I got the same vaccination and today (still) feel surprisingly good in contrast to my better half.

This may be because my employer had long since made sure that my vaccination book is the who's who of the pharmaceutical industry or, as a friendly doctor next door so beautifully put it, what's not listed in my vaccination book is there Not.

But it is more likely that my immune system is no longer the youngest. And so I resolve once again to take care of my own body a little more.

Conversation

I was able to come along again yesterday Thomas Aurich sitting together, which always fascinates me, because he is a permanent source of new ideas and suggestions to make our city even more attractive.

This time it was about a market hall for Heilbronn, which we have both been supporting for a long time. And so it was very interesting for me to hear from an expert what criteria must be observed and what is necessary in order to be able to operate a market hall in Heilbronn successfully at all.

It was also very interesting for me to hear how he classifies successful market hall concepts in other cities, which I know myself and have only judged from the customer's point of view. On the other hand, he must have been amazed at how I could imagine a market hall in Heilbronn. Ultimately, however, the investor and the operator will have to decide what such a market hall in Heilbronn should look like, because only very few fellow citizens can live from putting it on top.

I was very pleased that we had developed a similar idea for the Kirchhöfle independently of one another, but unfortunately we will both be a few decades ahead of our time here.

It was exciting for me to hear from him about the worries and needs of Heilbronn's restaurateurs, and how even small actions on the part of the city could solve a number of things very quickly and unbureaucratically, if you only wanted to.

Unfortunately, our conversation yesterday was again much too short, but he gave me many new ideas that I will probably think about more often in the coming days.

Europa

"If Heilbronn doesn't come to Europe, then Europe must come to Heilbronn." — Everyone knows this age-old saying. And so I have now decided to bring my Heilbronn fellow citizens a little closer to Europe through tiny actions.

And maybe this will motivate one or the other citizen a little more to become active in matters of Europe. This does not require a large rally or an event with a budget of millions! And we can wait a very long time, and probably in vain, for a VIP from Heilbronn to commit to Europe and thereby motivate other fellow citizens to do a little more for Europe.

The next elections to the European Parliament are in barely 20 months and until then there will still be fires all over Europe, but this does not make anyone think about how these fires could be put out together and pan-European; certainly not in Heilbronn!

In order to change this if necessary, we European federalists will not only come to the heart of the city with the 6th Hertenstein Talks and discuss the future of Europe there for everyone to see, but as a citizen of Heilbronn I will also start with small actions - similar to the “Guerrilla Gardening” — drawing attention to Europe.

So I am curious to see whether this will be noticed at all and even more whether I will find imitators in Heilbronn. And if I'm very lucky, then perhaps even the city administration will later decide to hoist one or two European flags in Heilbronn.

You see, I still dare to dream!
