Is it possible to label a problem a "good problem"?
It tears me to tears when I think about it. In the case of our Monika, the first reason is that German is not their mother tongue. Perhaps that's why her letters from the dungeon touch my feelings so much because she's so keen to communicate with the "Germans" in her language.
But the second reason is probably the more pleasant one! And I would like to describe this here in more detail by letting Monika have a say.
Monika: "I even have a very "good problem". I think I can not quite keep writing back to everyone . Not because of laziness, but because the number of letters has increased. That's a nice problem and I'm grateful for every single letter and card I get.
And besides, it is good for the guards to see that not everyone agrees with that, for example with laws of thought and language, and that I am simply locked away!
[...] Speaking of stamps: people have heard the emergency call that I urgently need stamps and they have responded with love and generosity! Now I have a lot of stamps that would be enough for a long time. I hope to get out of here before using all the stamps. Please let me know, with stamps a little brake.
I would like to thank all people for stamps and all the loving thoughts and prayers and EVERYTHING ."
Can a person who writes so warmly from a prison be a bad person?
If you might have experienced by Monika until today, these extracts only the first clue for you is that a person in here "freest country on German soil" locked up in prison is because he apologized in a video on his parents, then scare Do not worry too much.
Our Monika is neither the first nor the only one who is held captive in the FRG / Austria, although there are such things (according to the media) only in China, Turkey or Russia. People are held captive here because they think and speak - they are left at liberty, raping women, injuring and murdering people, or abusing children to develish.
Monika: " The sweet thoughts, prayers, words, paintings - it moves me very much. It strengthens me and supports me. [...]
If you happen to know a woman from Steinfurt (postmark) with 4 children, who is "our friend", tell her that her letters are so amazing to me. She does art writing - you have to see it! She has no sender and so much time and love in her letters - absolutely selfless. She is a hero.
And there are others doing the same, with much love.
I send my love back!
And now it's your turn. Now you are even more called to do more. Now all decent people should talk to their friends, acquaintances, colleagues, or neighbors about whether or not to write some nice words to a person in captivity, knowing that he is not a criminal. You can do it anonymously, or stand by your doing, the main thing is, you do it!
And even if Monika already has a lot of stamps, I will add more to each letter. No matter in what value - because unfortunately I have so far only taken into account - the main thing colorful and in all sizes. Every color of a brand, every colorful picture , should please them. Each of these stamps, which is not needed for answer letters, is said to cover the walls of the shame that surrounds Monika. A dungeon of stamps, as a sign of the resistance of decent people from all peoples!
Each letter passes through the hands of "those" who hold our Monika captive. Each letter clearly shows "those" that the arbitrariness of the ruling regimes can no longer be kept secret. And maybe it encourages one or the other of the willing helpers to jump over his shadow and not to indulge the rulers anymore.
Write to Monika:

And do not forget the colorful stamps.
