the world seems to become crazier every day - though a glimpse into literature or history books will show us that "There is nothing new under the sun" (with the huge difference that now WE are afflicted...)
Sometimes afflicted in a way that I can not imagine - think of Yael - I can only helplessly feel and pray for her.
And I feel a bit ashamed about moaning in my blog about petitetesses, everyday catastrophes like power cuts or snow in masses.
But that is my life.
In the picture above you see my cozy Danish lamp, an orchid that will flower (again!) soon, AND if you are very attentive: a ravishing model of my great friend, THE point of orientation in Berlin: the Berliner Fernsehturm - Berlin's television tower.
The real one is with 368 meters the highest building in Germany, built in 1969 in East Berlin. The copy above I found on a flea market in Berlin (and willingly paid a lot) - an original, one of the models that were sold on the day of the opening of the Fernsehturm.
You can use it as a lamp, too! Though, come to think of it: I will - after one test - not try it again - my last personal power cut is too fresh in my mind...
