grave reality

I heard about a french guy who was hitchhiking for for 5 years and travelled around the world - or at least all continents. And I think this is an amazing idea! Just let yourself go wherever the next car take you. There is no such thing as impossible.

However, I will not do this. (Or maybe in little - just in Europe :))

The main reason is: I like to be far away - but sometimes it is more important to be close. Because when there is trouble, you are needed at home. 

An unspeakably good friend of mine, in fact an angel, got into hospital because his heart stopped. And I can't call him, I can't write him - he doesn't have an own phone, he doesn't have an email, facebook, and I am definitely not able to visit him. And this might break the heart. He is a friend outside the internet, outside long-distance calls - he is a friend who really knows life and every word which slips out of his mouth is grave and deep.

And now all I can do is to pray, to look up at the snowy sky from the bottom of the well.

I always will love travelling and get to know people and make really good friends in places and circumstances where I wouldn't imagine - but you also I have to learn to be fast when there is something going on.
