About Me

CURRENT MISSION

...having a funny student life, in crazy berlin

ABOUT ME

All about me [...] I think I still would sit here tommorrow if I would write down EVERYTHING, but I will just start with the most common things ;o):
I like to meet new people and I love to see life in other countries (and their cultures). I also did spend one year in Ireland working in a Camphill near Kilkenny. There I used to do social work. I've also been to France (Someone's being to La Reunion as well?) several times and to the States. You see I like to travel :o) In the last time I did not do that often enough.
But I also like reading books and to listen to music. I write poems, like to have if cosy. I am open-minded to everybody and really want to get to know people from all over the world. That's why I am here! :o)

PHILOSOPHY

STEPS

As every blossom fades
and all youth sinks
into old age,
so every life's design,
each flower of wisdom,
every good attains its prime
and cannot last forever.

In life, each call the heart
must be prepared courageously
without a hint of grief,
submit itself to other new ties.

A magic dwells in each beginning,
protecting us
tells us how to live.

High purposed we must traverse
realm on realm,
cleaving to none as to a home,
the world of spirit
wishes not to fetter us
but raise us higher,
step by step.

Scarce in some safe
accustomed sphere of life
have we establish a house,
then we grow lax;
only he who is ready
to journey forth
can throw old habits off.

Maybe death's hour too
will send us out new-born
towards undreamed-lands,
maybe life's call to us
will never find an end.
Courage my heart,
take leave and fare thee well

Hermann Hesse (Stufen)
