Zofka and other miracles



how do you realize that you r getting older?? ...when you stop being excited about parties, when you start to enjoy sitting at home in the evening watching a movie or reading a book??...when you don't understand the strange language of teenagers in the bus, or when you start wishing to have a house in the wood???...well I have slowly reached all of these......christmas is such a strange time of the year...I can't say I m not enjoying sitting on the table with my family..but hell that is about all that makes christmas for me, the rest of it is artificially produced and it is bothering me as much as it can....and I don't need to wish anything for christmas because I wish something every single day and that is to have a house outside of the city...somewhere by the wood, with huge garden full of trees and birds....wishes are for us to make them reality...last year I wished that Zofka would still be with us next year at this time...and I love the idea that she is gonna give us her small christmas speech this year again at age 94....as simple as that it is with making wishes come true

You've mastered this art of saying the obvious in a most poetic way. I love reading your posts. Although it is an artificial thing to wish Merry Xmas, I wish you all the best. and I thank you for all the inspiring thoughts, photos, drawings...

I have no talent to express myself like you.

So I wish you (he he) all the best, a lot of happiness and good luck. For both of you.

thank you for your blogs, photos and yourself.

Já taky nebudu mít nic světoborného a už vůbec ne anglicky, takhle o svátcích mám mozek v safe módu přichystaný jen na rozeznání stromečku, vůně cukroví a možná nějaký ten malý dotek fotografické emulze...
jsem rád, že se sem pořád můžu vracet i když mnohdy po dlouhých prodlevách, protože strašně rád čtu co píšeš a rád se taky dívám na to, co s Bartem fotíte. Škoda, že jsem vás nestihl v Bratislavě na Měsíci fotografie ani nikde jinde, ale to nevadí :).
Měj pěkný průběh svátků a až překlene tady ta umělá doba, kdy si každý je nucen něco přát, tak ti přeju pěkný každý den v novém roce, který sám o sobě má větší hodnotu než jakýkoliv svátek.

starsimi sa stavame od narodenia (no, povedzme, ze od narodenia). kazdy si len stanovi tu svoju hranicnu ciaru, ked si to uvedomi.

ja som si uvedomil, ze ma bavi sediet doma a studovat a teraz sa neviem zbavit pocitu, ze je to neskoro a ze som analfabet konciaci skolu, hanbim sa za to a zelam si, aby som si tu svoju hranicu "of getting older" uvedomil uz skor.
