auf der anderen Seite der Welt

die angst ist ueberwunden, ich bin angekommen, prinzessin der staebe, ger-truide, die ihren eigenen stab traegt, hinein in den fruehling mit dem befreiten potential hinter dem aensgstlichen hasenherz.

immer mit der ruhe, gemuetlich mit der bahn durch den botanischen garten in christchurch gezuckelt. es hat geduftet:rot, pink, orange, springtime im herbst, knospende zweige, kleine entenkuecken. und mein grosses 20jaehriges kuecken flippt aus vor begeisterung und umarmt uralte baeume. ich, die Alte sammle Kraft und regeneriere mich.

rebecca, schön auf dem berg

heute morgen habe ich mich mit rebecca bei brot und wein zum frühstück getroffen. 

rebecca hilft mir einen blog für meine lernreise zu erstellen. 

zufällig kam charlotte vorbei.

wir saßen um einen kleinen tisch, nahmen uns spontan an die hände und riefen: 

wir sind frei.... insider wissen wovon.
