Angel and Angle

Now at the beach cottage. Love it here. The quiet. The peace. The solitude. Love it! I also looove the company of people. Lots of people. Love cooking up a storm for friends and family. Love having a party not planned at all. Love chaos. But I also love the company of just me.... Then I'm in charge. I'm responsible. Responsible for my own happiness. 

Alisa once said to me during one of my many complaints about my husband. ‘Helle, you are responsible for your own happiness. Are you not satisfied, YOU need to change things’. She was right of course…. She still is.

Bruce, the potter, is in Denmark now. He loves it here despite weather and wind. During our walk and talk in Christiania, he tells me that the whole place is such an inspiration to him. He feels the creativity and anarchism in this little society of its own. Our topics are many and flying in all directions. We talk about parenthood, marriage and divorce. Bruce says: ‘Barbara and I had 28 years together. To me that is a huge success’. New angle, and Bruce is of course right.

Ina is an angel. She doesn’t know that, but it’s true. And I am of course right.
