sitting here in zoetermeer. i have been here for 3 days, and i can say i feel very 'senang'(an indonesian word, look it up!) the weather has been as april will give you, sun, some rain and wind. i walk every evening a little round thru the neighborhood, this time accompanied by my dog. just walk past houses and look at the way they are done up, asking myself what it would be like living in them. as my sons always say to me, there is always so much to see around here, it makes you want to go out of the house and walkabout. my walkabout days could be over soon. it would be better because that would mean that the house i inherited, is sold. eventhough it is not what my innerself wants. came to holland to do some more clearing out of the house of my deceased parents. there was not that much to do, but still, the booth of my car is filled. looked thru about 20 photoalbums, choosing which ones to keep. got the good crockery together and will be giving that to an aunt. looking at all the photos, what happy times there were. ofcourse in photos you only see smiling persons, so it does not give a correct view of what might have been. but still, there were great moments. seeing my sons on pictures in this house from the moment they were born until about two years ago. these boys had a great life here visting the old country. hope they will come again with me. being in puberty does not help. what will i do, if this is not more? i will keep my happy memories embraced. and that will have to do.
