Bloody Fruit

"Mama, do you know that the fruit has blood?"
"It does?"
"Yes, it's its juice."

 

Night Vision

 

"Mama, it's to dark in the room."
"You don't need much light, Milla. When you sleep, your eyes are closed anyway."
"Yeah, we don't see anything at night except our dreams. Mama, how do people see their dreams if their eyes are closed?"

On Being Sick

 

"Mama, I feel like macaroni in the soup. I feel like spaghetti. And I am lonely." 

"Why are you lonely, Milla? I am right here, beside you." 

"Because I have nothing to do."

"That's not lonely, MIlla, that's being bored."

"OK, then I am bored."

"Sick and bored. That's not a good combination, is it?"

 

Moments

One day we bought chocolate and on the chocolate wrapper there was writing. It said enjoy the small things in life. I thought it was about bugs and other small creatures. But daddy told me it meant enjoy the small moments in life. I agreed. And during the day I got to see all the different moments that happened. In the morning I was happy because we were painting eggs. Then I was grumpy, because I like to be bossy and I wanted the eggs to be on the coffee table and my mom wanted them in the kitchen. Then in the afternoon we sat at the window and watched the sea. It was beautiful and relaxing. I could imagine what the weather was outside. I could feel what it felt like. It was like summer night, kind of windy, but warm. Then, at 11 o'clock, we went to church. It was squashy. But the music was beautiful. It was Easter. I was happy.

Life isn't one whole big moment. Many different things can happen in a day. You can be happy all day, or be grumpy or sad.  But even if you are sad, there would be all these small moments that you could enjoy.

Gravity

Went to Seattle Planetarium this afternoon. Turns out the fastest way to lose weight is to go to Pluto.

Странни години. Апоретични. Хаотични. Издълбани. Премълчани.

Sonata for Rain and Piano

We met a girl today. Two years old, blue eyes, red hooded raincoat. “Hi” - I said. She stared at me for a while, then asked: “Is it me?” “Yes, it’s definitely you.” - I said. “That rain is awesome” - the girl said and started singing and dancing, clapping her little hands. I smiled. Her mother smiled. My daughter  smiled.

Somewhere in the recesses of the universe God smiled too. And the rain kept falling. 

Bloody Carrots

"Мамо, днес обядвахме хот дог и моркови. Морковите бяха меки и кървави."
