(time)travelling

sometimes i think seriously that time tricks me. like last night. i took a short walk in dark Toronto. i was stunned to see a full moon in a clear sky. maybe it's my memory that tricks me when i think i saw a small crescent moon just a couple of days ago.....!

it must have something to do with my pace of living. animals who move slowly, like a snail, appear to have a sense of time going really fast. animals who move fast have the opposite impression. so this slow pace of travelling, having the colour of retreat or hibernation, makes time spin out of hand for me.

speaking of colours.

speaking of spinning.

Angela will soon be in Belgium again.

Andrea is in Argentina.

Diego is in Bergen.

Ane in Egypt.

Elisabeth in Norway.

people moving around on the blackboard of space.

a movement of golden children around the globe. is the world shrinking?

love.

Special Sunday

it's valentine. it's chinese new year. it's olympic games. it's sunday and a day like another. well yes and no. it's super gray when looking up into the sky. there is a flemish person living under the floor where i'm sitting on (just in another flat, not in a hole in the ground). there is some silence beyond the humming of the fridge. you may wonder where i am and what i'm doing. i guess that when a certain amount of home-ness is attained, there is less obvious reasons for describing life in all it's actions and views, as if the membrane between the city and the visitor melts away... and i find myself in some kind of daily life here. so yes, Toronto. so yes, i'm well. 'no news is good news', is a flemish saying. i don't know if that's generally true but in this case it is.
so what is the recepy for this sunday evening? maybe finding a good balance between travelling and being home. diving deep enough to find both the steadiness to walk and the ease of flexibility. it's the journey of a small child, and in a way of all of us.
cheers, and wishing each of you a wonderful celebration of life in it's very magnificent way.
