  • The Trees That Wanted To Travel

    … A PARABLE Do you know the story about the trees that wanted to travel? These were young, tall,  beautiful, trees, and they were able to see very far away. The horizons they saw looked so sunny and pleasantly warm, and appealing. So the trees wondered if not maybe in those lands, far, far away,…

  • R.I.P. Unfi!

    Our dog died yesterday. He was our first. We did’t even know what to do with him in the beginning. We learned. He lived to be 17 and a half years old – the stray puppy that had once looked like a small strange rat. He died naturally, of old age. He was completely blind,…

  • Pastila de râs

    Fiică-mea are puţin peste 3 ani. Concepţia ei despre obiectele care formează realitatea înconjurătoare se centrează pe temele: “Cine l-a cumpărat?” “Cât costă?” “Vreau şi eu”. Vede un ditai microbuzul pe stradă: “Vreau şi eu aşa o maşină. Cât costăăă?” Îi dau o felie de pizza: “E bună. Cine a cumpărat? Cât costăăă?” Azi tocmai…

  • Uimiri

    Mă uimeşte disponibilitatea oamenilor de a trăi o viaţă desenată pentru ei de alţii. Lipsa dorinţei vulcanice de a şi-o croi, măcar în parte, singuri. De a încerca măcar. Mă uimeşte uşurinţa cu care se  mulează pe forma piesei lipsă a puzzle-ului. Uşurinţa cu care acceptă că lucrul cel mai satisfăcător al vieţii ar fi…

  • Adventures at Matterhorn

    – by guest blogger Armand Csordas – It all started when I found out that I can get a car for tests over the long German reunification weekend. In the office I have a reputation as a fan of front drive family cars, something quite rare in my company, which produces mainly rear drive overpowered race cars. I…

  • Keyboards

      dear God is so annoyingly old-fashioned that he’s gone thousands of years without an upgrade in design. we are obsolete. we continue to be born with hands – tools for tactile emotion – even though there is no one to hold, even though there is no one to touch, even though everything is nothing…

  • Deutschland – Servicewüste?

    Another glorious day for German sales services and German sales people. So I’ve been sick for a week and I’m entering the pharmacy to get some vitamin gummy bears and maybe a nose spray. The only shop assistant present is busy going through the entire cosmetics product range with a middle-aged woman. Besides me, there…

  • My Roommate

    It’s morning. A spider has just rappelled down on my desk, where I was writing a goodbye letter. He stopped an inch short of touching it and is hanging there, by his own thread, suspended, like me. I cannot breathe. I’m watching him wrap the whole room up in sticky wordless webs, so nimble, like…

  • Why Women Love (Great) Shoes

    Well, gentlemen, this is a little counter-intuitive, but let’s face it. Ever since we were 4 months old, lying on our backs and able to focus our beautiful eyes for the very first time, what did we perceive? OUR FEET. I know, I know, you were also perceptive during that time – which is why…

  • A (re)început şcoala!

    Un prieten, întors recent din Italia, mi-a trimis poza următoare. I-aş da cu drag sursa, dar n-o stiu, si nici nu ştiu cine sunt personajele din imagine. Mă risc însă şi zic că ar putea fi… oricare dintre noi. Se recunoaşte cineva? :-)   Vă doresc tuturor un nou an şcolar cu bucurii şi succese!…
