to get old....older

no one like to think about it, nor to describe or write about, we would like to be young for ever.
But this is not possible in real life, only in virtual life. the medicine and beauty industry with
it big markets promiss, never to get old or older. what we should do or not to do, what we should
eat or not, what kind of sport we should make etc. if we can afford.
Why do we have problems to accept to get old or older in a worthy way, because nobody likes
to see, to respect , fear, no positive signs, because youth means everything.
no positive signs we see, that the years pass by, full of life, busy with job, children, family,
business. Getting older we do not want to have time, we are used always to dosomething,
not to waste time. to learn, to be busy with our interests , the changing world, the changing life
okay we should not be ashamed to get older, hopeful to get wiser, be more patient, to keep our
curiosity, our power. 
in africa the older persons always is important what they have to say, still in their integrated community and their power is immense, if they have heath problems or not.
nobody will keep the youth for ever. The faces are telling lifes with shadows of our souls
our years of dreams, of sorrows, our passions lying  under the surface, invissiable for
others. dreams and wishes disappearing in the dark nights.
take your time to get old or older, put away all the heavy luggage, slow down  be happy if your feel good.

the world of frequencies




remember the fine lavender my mother used,my father with the tabac in his pipe smoking, when he left his
room to visit our garden.or the special frequency of your little baby fresh and innocent.
or if you pay a visit to the rooms of your friends or other people
somtimes there was a smell of fresh prepared coffee or roast beef.
we rember situations and we will found some pictures, existing
or phantasy, or remeberence.
In our garden in summer many blossoms in many colours the green
apple or cherry trees and of course the smell of summer in the  air.
during the years of youth as a young girl the frequency of perfume,
the first love, the first party the first kiss, young men who would like to get your attention
with fine shaving water.
1000 ths of smells in this world. the salty breeze of the sea , the wind, the sun of sothern coasts,
other flowers, fascinating with strange smell. fish and fisherboats herbs, smell of freedom
the perfume boutique with labels of the foreign world and new creations of perfume to
attract your love, wondeful exotique names and flakon of glas for getting attractiv and stands
for success  and beauty. later you may have found some very special frequencies when travelling to forign countries, to wildplaces and searching for adventures. th sell of humid earth, the smell of fire
on chharcoal grill, coconut tress and al lot more you never will forget the breeze of the evening of a hot day or the smell of croweded cities or on the grassland with small houses and wild animals......
a lot more, but some special smell you always will keep in mind.

it is raining in africa



rain-season in africa

usually I do not visit during rain season, because moskitos  and other
animals like this warm and rainy weather, nature without month of rain,
difficult and absolutly important.
Every year it seems to be different, but always not really fine to stay
there for vacance times.
Remember one year when I stayed in my favourite hotel.
This evening begun just as every evening, the buffet was prepared with
fine and delicious offers. It was time to switch on the light, because it was
dark. As we were beginning we heard a strange noise and the lights suddenly
got dark, in few seconds crowded with dark black beetle and small once like bugs, which fall over and over in the hair, on the buffet, on the floor everywhere, clacking
down with noise. For the african employees close the buffet, took broom and cleaned everything, not shocked , because they are used to such nature events.
also the sea is wild and loud, stormy and always is necessary to repair the walls, the roofs, the beach, to clean the rooms with special chemical sprays, because the tourists do not like dark big black animals in the bathroom or under their feet.

Later I stayed in my private residence, the afternoon was very hot, no breeze, strange silence.
suddenly it was getting dark and I heard strange noise, I did not know what this could be.
upstairs looking to the sky I watched strange row of birds or other animals, could not imagine what it was and what this kind of noise means. Then suddenly I remembered the breakings news that in Mali grasshoppers, crickets disturbed the fields thewhole  maize  harvest of one year. got down closed the windows and doors, had to control every possibility the animals could get in the house, easy for them. when I was seeking in the neighbourhood for any actions, could not notice any change. sit down , stay cool and wait for the catastrophe.
Waiting if something happens, nothing happened, no problems, no crash, no more noise.
all hamdulliallah…. the grasshoppers changed the direction to disturb another region.

well, if you stay for longer time in Africa you have to be prepared being confronted with strong nature, powerful . you have to learn how  citizens manage and react and what they know to come along.Their wisdom is needed..
   
without water no life no world can exist.
