Here we go again. Having emerged out of nowhere, it's back spreading fear. "Corona is my name", it exclaimed and drowned everyone it'd touched in the ocean of anxiety. Europe is plunging into the darkness with the modern plague - a virus that won't give up the fight.

Praise of rest

In this autumn period I experience an interesting phenomenon every year. One foot is still in the warm sea and the hand is already greeting Christmas holidays. It's like a jump from summer straight to winter. I indulge myself every year in total lounging.

This year is marked by significant changes. I watch the shifts, and they've been around for quite a while, not only in myself but in my neighbourhood. The time is now ripe for a breaking point. And the year 2019 is in charge.

We live in a society that admires inexperienced but beautiful youth. While age and eventful lives...

NO, - I always reply in a loud and rather emphatic way. It's about shopping of all sorts, where they have quite progressively stopped providing free plastic bags. Yes, it is an impressive step forward, compared to the previous years, when plastic bags and sacks were being accumulated in households, flying down the streets... and eventually would...

Do not worry, I won't write a paraphrase on Neruda's story "Where to go with it?". However, a similar rhetorical question suits the topic.
