But just in terms of how I keep evolving...and finding out new things about myself that I just would never have guessed maybe even just a few months ago...
Today I saw a really great film WALK ON WATER...combining the best of two worlds...my strange affinity for German everything & interest in German history, as well as the beautiful holy country of Israel...
I thought the film was a kind of BRIDGE in a way...which perhaps resonates with how I am...
In any case one revelation I had recently is that I feel a special draw to Israel lately which I found surprising...for many years now my Korean friend has been expressing to me her "Heart for Israel & the Middle East"...I never understood! I'm not sure if I have this same "Heart" but I'm definitely feeling a draw and interest for Israel that I have never had before...interested enough to want to visit(if I did fly that is).
Other things that I have found surprisingly in recent times...
I CAN'T STAND. cold. wet and windy. I used to be a hate the heat girl...in my old age, it seems I've done a 180....balmy please come soon enough!!!
I actually ENJOY domesticity...I like pottering around the house...cooking, trying to keep the place nice etc...I actually suddenly got interested in aesthetics...I enjoy expensive things...
Suddenly I see that I could easily BE that Lady of Leisure which I never had any respect for and thought was the lowest kind of low in terms of a future I could see for myself...
It's bizarre it's like a completely new me...who I don't know and am starting to discover...not sure if I like her-I guess I don't have a choice- definitely she's surprising me!!!
BUT. Don't get too excited I'm not giving up my well worn comfy hippie dero self anytime soon!!! That would just be too drastic- Grandma wouldn't be able to deal with such a jarring shock to the system. I guess I'll be the ultimate polarity...harmony in contradiction :)

Join the club. (Except for the Israel bit!!!)
I'm glad to hear that your enjoying domesticity. Actually it sounds like you are enjoying life generally. You would look cute as a 50s housewife :)
I would love to go to Israel and feel the religious history of the land.
I am cute. Period, lol...my newest nickname is SMURFETTE, lol. That kind of cute, anyway, lol...sorry to disappoint, hahah
I'm not doing too bad considering I am stuck in this country which frustrates me no end that I am surrounded by shallow louts...
JJ, I think you would look good slopped in dead sea mud...could use some colour! LOL
