SITTING ALONE (December 20, 2007)
We have been blessed with a series of gorgeous days. Although it is quite cold in the morning and evening, the wind subsides around noon, and it is a joy to be outside the house. Swept clean, the valley of the Mirna is a wonder to behold. For the second day in a row, I make sure to have a glass of wine at the empty terrace of Klaudio’s café around two o’clock, when the weather is most balmy. And when the wind is almost still. Sitting alone under the cloudless sky, battered by the brilliant light of our star, I can easily imagine it is summer already. Especially when I close my eyes and push my chin upwards.
