Sometimes I regret

Sometimes I regret 
having wasted so much time thinking, 
re-thinking again and again and pondering 
instead of ... writing.

Arnold Schönberg once stated:
"If it is art it is not for all
and if it is for all it is not art."

Well, this is ... for all. ;-)

Wherever I look:

It's autumn.

No, thanks!

 

Just no books!

Typo in the title? Nah. It's just that 
I would not let a tiny T spoil an avantgardistic alliteration.

Farewell to a wonderful human being

Sometimes words do not come easy to me. Today is one of those days.

As long as dementia does not overtake me, I will not forget today's birthday of mine. Because at 3.00 am (12:00 in Canberra), a service was held for Sue.

Arundhati Roy once wrote about the ‘god of small things’. Sue had an eye for ‘small things’ – in her garden, out and about in her beloved Canberra, close to ‘her’ kangaroos, etc. ...

An admirable woman, intelligent, humorous, warm-hearted, down-to-earth, not a chatterbox.
A woman who would listen to people in need and try to show desperate seekers a way ... Out of the Shadows into the Light.

Glad and thankful I once stumbled’ across her on my friend Andrew's blog, I shall remember Sue as a wonderful human being.

... And I like the idea of her revelling among flowers, cats, kangaroos, and smiling at us. ;-)
