sunshine & braai

Yesterday we had our first 'summer' braai and i introduced the swissies to safrica's favourite weekend activity.

"I have been having some trouble with a flower," said the little prince.
"Ah!" said the snake.
And they were both silent.
"Where are the men?" the little prince at last took up the conversation again. "It is a little lonely in the desert . . ."
"It is also lonely among men," the snake said.
.......
"One only understands the things that one tames," said the fox. "Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame me . . ."

internet lighter than air

ich bin jetz on-li..air. sitting in my garden and working while looking at the lake is not bad. if it wasn't for the smell of cow manure things would be perfect,)

coming soon...

today is so beautiful and warm outside
it gives me hope for months to come:)

moving day

on this strange and shreckliche tag it comes to me that perhaps i've been a believer in that mesmerizing us dream - that anything is possible and the 'greatest' best. perhaps it has some truth to it. i just need to reformulate it for my never resting mind: to naturally go for the best but accept all outcomes and in betweens like a stone swimming upstream in a river;)

ah my dear buddhist friends, and american friends, and mexican and african and swiss. it is as it is, and i'm being very abstract today. avoiding emotions i guess. getting lost in abstractions and work always helps. why do i find it so easy to judge and so difficult to forgive? i just need a good drink i think. schoni tag vor alle.

mio dios mio. asi es, asi fue. si o no? claro que siyyyy! ;)

kitchen life

Yesterday i made rusks and today i baked my first ever banana bread:o
hmm now i can bake, i have long hair...remind me why i need a girlfriend anymore? ;)

Had a tiring and very interesting aikido session. Learnt about inviting my opponent, being open and moving from my center. How well i've learnt to be defensive. Now to unlearn.

Tomorrow is N's dad's funeral. I go to bed with heavy dreams ahead.
