holzhousen: week of sweetness


beautiful nauture. no trash and gunk piled everywhere you look. fresh smog free air. clean room to myself. soft pillow. heater in the bathroom. spacious shower. real people with real honesty. direct and true conversations. open caring and loving on each other. great classes with revitalizing topics. worship in english with others. prayer with others in english. three good meals a day. an instant espresso/cappuccino/latte/machiato/hot chocolate machine. listening to others struggles and victories. not feeling so alone. getting a better perspective. being re-inspired about my last 9 months. ping pong. pool. ultimate frisbee (my love). long walks in the forest that looks like sherwood. saw a real live bear print as big as my face. walks to a little grocery store in the village called naukauf ... haha knock off. talking about and sharing good music.
hugs that are for real. playing guitar. mingling with all ages and walks. apples to apples. skip bo. speed scrabble. catch phrase. laughing til it hurt. listening to the piano being played. coke zero. flying in airplanes. riding in buses. waiting in airports. starbucks.... oh starbucks. meeting strangers and hearing all about their lives, knowing well never meet again. prayer walking in the airport. having only a carry on. not loosing anything.
