Subject: Re: [K-list] double dutch
It's so nice to read here on this list how it is to be Dutch!
Thank you Wim for your explanation :)
and Jose, you brought back the memories of the time when I was 'young' and still able to jump
with the double ropes at school.....
In case I did not know who I was, now I know a lot more about the details ;)
Just kidding......
I believe what is really true and common in the Dutch nature is the very deep
feeling of sin and what Wim called :'not deserving any grace'.
As you wrote Wim, you were raised in a Catholic family and my family has Calvinistic origins.
We always had the impression that the Catholic part of the Dutch population was not so
'zwaar'. You had the possibility to go to church and to ask to be forgiven almost every day as a child.
(I also know the stories about the sins children had to imagine like: I took some sugar from the 'suikerpot'),
but you were allowed to walk and to bike and to swim on Sunday. And to buy ice-creams!
That were great topics to discuss about at school when I was a teenager. :)))
Greetings from a very rainy middle part of Holland,
(do you count Rotterdam-Gouda-Utrecht to the 'dividing' or the 'northern' part of Holland, Wim?)
At least I am artistic :))
with love,
Herma
