Hi Wim,
You know, it must be the way you say it, or maybe the english are
different; if I went around asking people those questions, people
would rapidly conclude I was mad! But then, I've been living with
that most of my life anyway.
Am I alive? Well, sometimes. A lot of the time, I'm dreaming - even
when I'm awake. Trying to get out of that habit! It's a defence
mechanism. Some of the dirt that needs cleaning off the diamond.
My world? Full of beauty. Not enough love (on my part? Probably.
There can never be enough, because there can never be too much!)
Probably more love than I think though - I'm not seeing it clearly.
Lots of words in my world, I love books, I sometimes write poetry.
I'm an editor, so I get to work with words, too! I love your
wordplay, by the way. Lots of dancing, I love dancing, and I love
singing too. I'm better at dancing, though!
More mundanely, I'm recently separated from my husband, and I have
two beautiful children, a boy - Richard - and a girl - Charlotte.
Richard has a language disorder. They both love dancing too!
But right now, my world is full of work that I'm getting behind on,
and I owe it to my client, and myself, to get it done!
love, gill
