Treasure hunt

When was the last time you went for a treasure hunt?

In the picture you see what my neighborhood currently looks like.

The other day I saw a lady picking up a shard from the ground. After studying it for a while, she decided it was worth her attention and slid it into her pocket. It was her treasure.

I was touched by the value she seemed to give to a seemingly worthless piece of junk. It made me realize that I sometimes forget to value the little things in my life. Being caught up in the trap of chasing something new, I simply forget what already is, the visible treasures that I can enjoy anytime anywhere. 

Right there, in that one moment, for me, all the times that I took my possessions for granted were captured by this lady.

What a beautiful reminder.

Zorgvuldig had ze met haar slurf telkens een steen gepakt en deze gestapeld, totdat er een hele dikke, oerdegelijke muur ontstond. Stevig was de…

MOVE!

One of my friends is a cyclist. I never understood the fun of cycling. To me cycling is not particularly fun, a bike is a way to transport me from A to B. Last September, when we had some beautiful sunny days, I thought of going for a swim at a local outdoor swimming pool.…
