Two months more....
Another two months have passed. We are now in the middle of a fantastic summer. At least here at the Danish coast. Things bring three important points to my mind:
1) a REAL personal blog is updated much more often than every two months. This will happen from now on. So many exciting things are happening almost every day that - I believe - it will be interesting to share them with you. So watch out....
2) it's another Europe than two months ago. A very different Europe. Following the two NJETs to the European Constitution from the French and the Dutch. And following the terrible and cowardly bombs in London yesterday. But BOTH tell me very clearly that it is more important than ever before to "bring Europe home to what is was created for". This seems to have got lost almost everywhere. We cannot sit quietly and let that happen. All friends of REAL Europe: Unite! And do it by uniting people - and not states. I will certainly do what I can!
3) vacation - not least as a pensioner - is a fantastic experience. Many people say: But you are on holiday all the time! NO! I believe it is very important to organise life in daily life AND in holidays. Also in weekends, for that matter. None of it - at least for me - is a question of lying down and do nothing but watching the sun, the moon and the stars! But it is a matter of enjoying every bit of it. Do things you like. Important things, small things, encouraging things, things inspiring your imagination and couriosity. Reading, writing, enjoying the fantastic Skype free phone possibilities, listening to all the great programmes on the new DAB radio (digital radio), conquering the hilly neighbourhood on your new bike, enjoying lovely wines and other humane drinks from around the world, see great friends, plan your next trip to exciting places, and so on. It's never boring. And time is always far too short. But challenge yourself - and the great results will keep rolling in like a wonderful breeze!
