Kolyada is a pagan Russian tradition. At Christmas time, people put on scary masks, walked around the villages, sang and collected treats.

And in the end, I believe that we don't need to do anything to be loved. We spend our lives trying to seem prettier, smarter. But I realized two things. Those who love us see us with their hearts and attribute qualities to us beyond beyond those we really have. And those who don't want to love us will never be satisfied with all our efforts. Yes, I really believe that it is important to leave our imperfections alone. They are precious to understand those who see us with the heart.

Mind is like a wild dog that if let loose will roam in all different directions. I ensure that I have it chained so that it is redirected only in those places where I want it to navigate. Thoughts need constant attention, if left unattended, they'll overwhelm. You know where the treasure is, tame that wild dog to assist you well...

Es sind unsere Geschichten

Es sind unsere Geschichten,

die uns wiedererschaffen,

wenn wir zerrissen, verwundet,

ja vernichtet sind.

(Doris Lessing, 22.10.1919 - 17.11. 2013)

ICH MÖCHTE DIE LUFT SEIN

Ich möchte die Luft sein,

die nur für einen Augenblick

in dir wohnt.

Ich möchte so unbemerkt

und so notwendig sein.

(Margaret Atwood)

I DON'T KNOW WHERE I AM GOING

I don’t know where I am going,

but I am on my way.

ICH HÖRE DEN WIND WEHEN, UND ICH FÜHLE

Ich höre den Wind wehen, und ich fühle,

dass es sich gelohnt hat, geboren zu werden,

nur um den Wind wehen zu hören.

Книги можно сравнить с мирными друзьями, приятными и полезными, в которых мы не встречаем ни капризов, ни нескромности.

Они дают нам много и ничего не требуют взамен.

Мы можем их оставить в минуты, когда довольны судьбой и без них и, наоборот, имеем полное право возвращаться к ним, в минуты горя, с полной уверенностью найти в них совет и утешение.

Они сеют в душе нашей знания, которые, разрастаясь, приносят богатый плод.
