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.

it can be too much for one day?

the day fills itself up and i drink. and then the next fills itself from empty to full. a lifetime long. but yes, not all in one day. and yet every day. :-) x
