At 4:30 pm it gets dark and the trees are now almost bare, but it is still autumn, and today there was sun and light in this time of year when there is none. A few weeks ago I discovered the persimmon, or kaki, a fruit that tastes like all the fruits together and sweet, sweet, all my breakfast one day. drawing today in honor of this. Today
finished reading The Philosopher and the Wolf, Mark Rowlands. Even I can not put many plabra to this reading, because I get a lump in my throat. Rowlands is a contemporary philosopher who bought the early nineties a wolf cub 6 weeks and lived together for 11 years. The book tells what he learned of Brenin Rowlands, the wolf, but in reality the book is a reflection on what makes us human (we are not very good standing), about love, death and life. It is a tremendously moving book. And although today we finished reading, I will leave my bedside table, because it's the books I want to be around and reread in a bit.
Already At 4:30 pm is dark and the trees Are Practically naked, But it is still autumn, and today it WAS sunny. the light, When There Is, at this time of the year is superb. A Few weeks ago I rediscovered the persimmon, or kaki, a fruit that tastes like all fruits put together and it´s sweet sweet. everyday now I am eating one for breakfast; today´s drawing: a persimmon, therefore.
I just finished reading The Philosopher and the Wolf by Mark Rowlands. I still have no words for it, because somehow a knot in my throat forms. The book is the story of what Rowlands, a contemporary philosopher, learned from his wolf Brenin. But the book is not so much about the 11 years they spent together, but it is more a reflection about what makes us human, about life, death, love. The book is utterly moving. I need to let it sink, and then porbably re read it in parts.
