Work hard Play hard.
What is history?
"It is not simply enough to know the light…a Jedi must feel the tension between the two sides of the Force…in himself and in the universe."
―Thon
"When to the Force you truly give yourself, all you do expresses the truth of who you are,"
Yoda
Yoda told stories, and ate, and cried, and laughed: and the Padawans saw that life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."
John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper
"You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."
Aslan, Prince Caspian by CS Lewis
We are moving early next year, so I've been thinking about this a lot. Ideally, I want a place with a large balcony/terrace and/or garden access, a second bedroom to use as a work room (I CANNOT concentrate while working in the living room and can't sleep if I work in the bedroom, so this is actually a -must-), wood floors, and a built-in kitchen (not common in Germany). The built-in kitchen might be the one we have to give up on, which really sucks because we have a built-in kitchen here and will therefore have to buy an oven, sink, shelves or cabinets, and dishwasher. But I've only found 2 apartments in the past few months in our new city that have built-in kitchens :/
Eventually, when we have kids, we want to move to a house. Ideally, it will have a big yard so that I can grow more food, enough rooms for work and for the kids, a good cellar space, and good insulation. We also want to somewhere close to the city, but maybe not directly in it....somewhere where we can easily take an S-Bahn (commuter train) in and go out for an evening, but have a bit of peace and quiet. I'd love to come back to Berlin/Brandenburg and so would my BF, but we have to see what happens with his job situation after he gets his degree.
Well, for now I just want an affordable place to live in close to the college I want to attend soon.
Ideally, however: A house out in the middle of nowhere, big yard, garden. Plenty of room. I'd like my house to have three floors including the basement. The basement would be me and my partner's room. First floor would have a nice kitchen, dining room, living room. Upstairs: a couple of bedrooms, and an art studio where I could keep focused.
