Melt with Me

Hopefully for my Belgian Family there is plenty of nice silky powder and lots of it.

Oh my goodness, yesterday records were broken and all dealing with cars sitting on the roads rather than driving. Something like a 900 Kilometer cluster buster DUDE 900 Kilometers, You are probably wondering how is that Possible in such a tiny country, ell Belgium has lots and lots of traffic just like the rest of the world. and when lots and lots of traffic mix with some fresh winter powder, People freak out and cant drive properly, not that they could before the snow but they really cant after the snow. Anyway just a little clip from a Pajottenlander's new perspective. groetjes, M

Now fully in bloom and wonderfully fragrant, they sit upon my desk as we both peak out the window in search of the suns'light I am reminded of all the Beautiful blooms and smells that are ever bounding in this miraculous and splendor filled planet Earth. We have to be the luckiest species and the most plagued organism on this world of wonderment. I was looking at images, some of which I captured and I cant believe my eyes again. its like When I see nature and am still surprised by how magestic an awe-inspiring it really is. The curse of the Earth may be humans now, but I do see innovation and creativity rising up for a new birth of enhancment on Earth. I remember a man from my past always said a statment he learned from his father and that was... "You can be part of the problem or part of the solution, you pick" Well as setiment gets repeated over and over the meaning finds its way into an unrecognizable form and then we forget.. I am chosing again to be part of the solut...

I am up with the Birds and My Man, no sleeping-in when one has a broken vertebrae # 11. Sleeping is good in blocks of 3 hours, its kindof like having a baby to wake up and feed but I dont leave the bed and there's no baby. But every three hours I am stiff and need to adjust. Life is still good, Life keeps getting better but then I face big obstacles like crashing into a parked truck for no apparent reason and I am not suicidal or depressed or anything like that. VERY STRANGE. I have a beautiful new house with all new, totally chic Teak furniture and even a spaceship white leather couch, very modern and a super great place to sit and chill out. I have lots of windows thus natural light. Huge bonus in a living space, (lots of light)

Hi there literary critics, Remember the movie Road to Wellville,? Well my recovery isn't going to be so glamourous, But atleast its happening without enimas hee hee hee. I am back with my sanity only to try to keep it for the next 4 weeks while in recovery. My last 8 days have proven that I am somewhat resiliant and can keep going on this Earth. I just looked up images of the crash and my Vespa laying nearly dead on the ground, its sad. The articles are frightening they say something I dont know and cant remember, Life threatening, Nearly tragic, Unlikely recovery.... WOW ? I cant remember a single part, not even 5 minutes before and certainly not 2 hours after?. am I lucky? yes, everyone else is tramatized but I am the only one with injuries. Strange how the brain works or fails to work in defense of trama. Oh well here's to Wellville and my not so glorious recovery. Love M

I have lived in Belgium for just over one year now and feel pretty good with the way the cookie crumpled. I am delighted to have work, a residence card and a few certificates of accomplishment for learning more than a year of the Dutch language and also for learning about the system that governs Belgium. I am happy here and think it a positive place to live work and make a life. YES there are still many challenges infront of me but, considering how much I have learned, I say bring them so that I can continue to learn and adapt, after all that is the goal of my geographical point of view. ADAPTION. best of wishes and many thanks M "Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them." Albert Einstein

It's Been a while But only for the writing output, not the drama and excitement that flows in and around my simple life. I have moved back to the pearl of the pajjotland. GOOIK There are fabulous mountain biking trails and places to walk, as one of the elders here says that walking is the ONLY thing to do in GOOIK. Pretty funny but quite possibly true. I have a lot of work like normal but like normal I am finding other things to do instead. totally typical me anywhoo just a quick note to get back on the writing track. tot ziens M
