Lines in the Sky
“It’s never too late to turn back.” Isn’t that what they say? In my deep sleep I was dreaming that I was in my childhood home. As in all my dreams it was but it wasn’t. There was a balcony on the top floor and the neighbours’ houses were too close, looming over my head with wide, dark window panes that let in just enough light to make you wonder if there was someone watching from behind the tinted glass. I held a crumpled shirt up to my chest to cover myself as I stepped outside and looked down over the white steel railing. An old boyfriend of mine (Steven?) was there calling up to me, coaxing me out for an evening rendezvous in the warm summer air. His slender build and almond shaped eyes were friendly and inviting. He had on one of his classic brightly coloured and bold patterned shirts, a stark contrast to his always tatty pants and shoes. He was beside his bike - reliable but rust-covered. I felt exposed peeking my head out over the railing, back bare to the waning heat. The delight of his presence and the surprise of his beckoning was overwhelming and exciting.

The TERRA born soul
Nobody can hear you scream in space.. It took a moment, and yet, as my internal scream echoed into a silent void and a peaceful quiet I'd never heard before became what I was looking at. It held me to this moment, because by a fading flash, that scream.. was my death scream. I had died.

My trip to the Maldives
At 4 o 'clock in the morning on August 13, our family got up early and took a bus to the Capital Airport. Line up for boarding at 6:30. After a long flight of seven and a half hours, the plane descended slowly through the clouds over the Maldives. Overlooking the Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean from the porthole, it is like drifting in the vast sea of ships of all sizes. As the plane landed at Male airport, the passengers slowly moved one by one toward the front door. We sat in the back row and waited patiently. Unexpectedly, the rear compartment, which is not allowed to be opened, was opened as an exception. We turned around and stepped down from the rear compartment door. Only later did we know that our daughter Dou Dou greeted the stewardess: "Hello, hello." And waved to the ground crew standing by the cabin. The ground staff thought the child was in urgent need of disembarkation, so they made an exception and asked the stewardess to open the rear door.
