January 19th - I am BACK and AUSTRALIANS and DINNER!

This day was special.

Special with a capital "S".
Know not WHY on Saturday, know not HOW it happened, BUT - it happened. After all that time that it was expected, asked for, and prayed for - it, one more time, happened.
"What?" you may be asking?
Nothing great, but - great for me -
I AM - BACK...
Was gone for long, my hear and mind and sould wonderring, and wanderring, in confusion and non-sensiness of a - test? Maybe...
I feel happy again. And free.
Hee haa!
Thank you Lord!
HALLELUJAH!!!

Apart from this - I met with 2 friends of mine.
Both from Australia.
One met in Rome, great woman and a source of inspiration and great ideas (see http://www.canticodeicantici.com/).

The other one met here, in Dublin, another great woman who showes (me) how to trust "no matter what" in a great design that the good God has got for each one of us (speaking of a unique plan for each one of us, let me mention something I heard in homily, yesterday - said by a jesuit priest, on I don't know what occasion: every human being has got a mission in his or her world, and everyone of us shows God's love in a very special, personal, way, to the world around. EACH ONE OF US - rich and poor, believers or not, men or women, children, all... It may sound very obvious, but - to me is sounded as something completely new. Probably for its concrete implications...). We had a lovely lunch together, spoke of Rome, and Australia, and Dublin, and about the Church and about love and sex (in a context of our formation and faith, not just about sex...), and relationships and God and - had a great time together.

At night then, my mum and I went to dinner at Helena and John's.
It was lovely, too.
Great food, even greater company - we shared many stories, observations, insights, and - except a good cuisine and tea, also a love of - MUSIC!!! I actually did play violin, accompanied by a piano! I am thinking I should get my violin when I am home now, but the beginning of February, bring it over (the one I bought in October is ok, but "ok" somethins is not enough... Will see how much it costs to get it over here on plane) and - start seriously playing again.

And then, but this truly was at night, my mum baked - a bread.
Hm, and what bread it was!?
Tastes great. Apparences could be a bit poorer, but - hey, the next one will be grand! I wander what Teta B. will say?? :-)
