There are moments
when you don´t wish
to be anywhere else
in time or room...
Moments that don´t just look perfect
in pictures or in words -
but that are perfect to you
in that very moment -
in every sense.

Know what I mean?

The other night
when it as all dark
I lit a candle-lamp
in our little round table
out at the balcony.
I put two big pillows
on the bench to sit on.
I dressed Noak warm
(he had not been out all day because of a cold.)
And we sat down my son and I
with a bowl of bananas, raisins and walnuts
under a blancet and talked quietly
waching the lights of the little cars driving by down on route E18...

Also
this morning
we had some tea and bread
all three of us
out there on the balbony.
It was spring in the air
and it was a precious, dear moment...

p.s.
we´ve spent lots of time in the sun today
and Noak got himself a pair of strawberry-rubber-boots
that he has enjoyed running in.

Awareness of the moment, being totally one, alltogether. HEART-WARMING!

You should really do Kundalini-Yoga, I'll send you a book recommendation. You're already in the middle of it!

Oh those are perfect moments! I can just imagine you two sitting out there on your balcony, watching the string of car lights go by below.
