Kids change your thinking

Posted 1 CommentPosted in Boys, Thinking

  The point of view changes when you have kids. I didn’t want to recognize for a long time because I didn’t want to feel different than people without kids. When I didn’t have kids yet, there were two points of reference: my parents and myself. Since I am a mother, there are three points […]

Time stood still

  Normally, he is talking like a waterfall. But then, he was lying there. The little surgical intervention with a general anesthesia went well. I sat at his bed and waited until he woke up. I was looking at his chest, following his breathing. I was looking at his face during hours, studying his little […]

Attraction

Posted Leave a commentPosted in Boys, People, Thinking

  Clouds are like humans or humans are like clouds. Some are attracting each other like in the picture and some try to stay away from each other. Today, my younger boy and me met a doctor at the children hospital and felt both the same way very attracted to this young woman. She explained […]

Little universe of thinking

Posted Leave a commentPosted in Thinking

  It is a small world, my little mossy universe of thinking. A lot of tiny thoughts are turning their rounds; some are coming and disappearing as soon as they arrived. Some are turning and going round and round and round. It is difficult to have the big picture. I am crawling, moving my arms […]

Playing myself

Posted Leave a commentPosted in People, Thinking

  My kid played the role of the Puss in the boots. It is a wonderful fairy tale about having nothing and getting everything. The only condition is to play well your role. Well, I admit this is a rather simple interpretation of the story. But it seems to fit to a program I encountered […]

Progressing

  When I was a teenager, I used to write down my thoughts in a diary. Those moments were very important to me, lying on me bed and trying to describe how I got along with my parents, teachers and friends. But re-reading my diary after weeks, months or years was even more important to […]

Here or there?

  I am standing in front of the gate but I’d like to be on the other side. I imagine it to be more interesting over there but it is only in my imagination. I don’t have any real experience. So many times in life I find myself dreaming of being elsewhere. If I try […]

Being prince and princess

Posted Leave a commentPosted in Thinking

This is my prince I want to kiss. Will he be my man? He will be bright, beautiful and sensitive. Very simple, isn’t it? Kissing the frog and starting a relationship is very easy, too. What seems to be more complicated is certainly all what comes after. I wish my prince to be different than […]

Laughing

  Fortunately, my two boys are rather bright. Even too bright when I want them to spend less time on their computers or smartphones and when I want to lock them for a certain time. They are hiding their machines telling me totally innocently they haven’t seen them for a while. But it is great […]

Too many pictures

Posted 1 CommentPosted in Childhood, People, Thinking

  I see myself from the outside; I see myself from the inside. I am standing in between. It isn’t me what I see. I am different. You look at me and you recognize me. I am trying the same thing: I would like to recognize me. But I always get a different picture. I’d […]
