Word It for January

It wasn’t so long ago that I found myself sitting on the terrace, muddy knees and tangled hair wondering about the future — panting wet dog under my tiny sneakers. I used to have long conversations with my brothers about what life would be like once we changed millenniums, what the world would be like, how our lives would change with technology and what exactly we would be doing. Our crazy thinking was usually 20 years out.

We had a baby in the house — my fourth brother. We had dogs and cats, there was horseback riding and sunsets with tea. There was no phone or television (in the country house my parents built a few years after they married), but we had LPs and billiards.

Not much has changed, yet everything has. Now we have a baby in the house‐our daughter. There are dogs and cats, there is horseback riding and sunsets with tea. There is a phone, a TV, DVD, VCR, CD player, personal computers, a tower computer, wireless internet and billiards.

Life is as crazy as I dreamed it would be back then, yet crazier than I ever thought it would be. And I love every moment of it.

The more crazy life has in store for me, the more crazy in love I am with life.

Crazy is the Word It for January.
