Glittering purple lights on the tarmac under a pitch-black sky, a single star shines overhead. An evening spent savoring art and the art of conversation by a lush lawn in a perfect home, envy the old-styled swings on the Mangalore-tiled open porch. The big city past midnight is a million points of gold, this makes the two hour flight delay worthwhile. So many colors, so many… on such days I tell myself go get real.

Aw reality, what's that? whose? Just an other dream ... here the colors vanished! The snow, the grey light, even the large baroque castle looks grey. Everybody waits for the sun.

A perfect home?? Show me one and I'll give you a child, your choice!

See? I am often just looking for reasons to give them away...

You are "real" lady! :)
