wednesday, 20th of august - london

yesterday evening dorothea and the children came back from holiday. that was a great relief for me, because the waiting and doing nothing in the house ended. children running around, specially the youngest one, who almost immideatly started to play funny games with me.

somehow i think it's very important for me to start doing normal things again. like playing with children, talking to people (about other things than the journey), or going shopping (i will have to wait for that until i am back home, because i am still not using money).

that very serious and humble mood i am in, since i arrived here still carries on. but it's much better when talking and playing and laughing. as dorothy and clarice dench kept saying 'and don't forget to smell the flowers along the way'.
