We are all on this earth, doing things and undergoing life.
What are we doing exactly, and what is our motivation? Is there a purpose?
Where do we come from, and where do we go to?
Do we really come from somewhere?
Are we really going to a destination?
Does it matter what we do or not?
… and then there is the ultimate question: who am i?
Taking these and many other life questions personally,
i’m blogging irregularly about it and their effects upon my life since 2008.
There are thousands of blogs about and around these questions, and i guess that this blog isn’t very special. But sharing ideas and thoughts and feelings, and reading your interesting comments makes a difference.
For those wanting to get more glimpses of me, there is also this post: who is bert
If you still want to venture deeper in my inner machinery, there is this: whoisbert pt3

Thought I’d check in. It’s been a year since I got a notification from you. Hope you are doing well and happy enough.
… That’s quite a while, since you popped in. I’m not often on this wordpress anymore, although i post “now and then”. However, “the last post” is now more than a year old.
I started this blog 11 years ago, about the search for what is consciousness …
.
The past 4 years have been weird and dream like. I found new love, and we are now trying to build a life together. Such takes time. Even more when international, intercontinental …
My life was already unreal at the age of 13 … so, perhaps not much has changed. Still harvesting beauty and love … although soon entering my 7th decade … . I never thought i would get this old, and … well … i feel 35. Something like that. Kept young by life itself … and the students … and the daughters … and the lover.
I’ve been happier, … paperwork has to be done for this relationship. But it doesnt touch the love, just another dozen of fences needed to be lifted. 🙂 indeed !!!
.
… and that’s all …
Still making strange pics
Still walking through the forests
And a month ago even to Mekkah …
… If i ever become a grandpa, i’ll have stories to tell …
.
How about you …
Just getting around to clearing out some email and found the notification for this. Happy to read about your happiness. I’ll be 70 myself in May 2024. I feel in my 20s looking out from my eyes but not at photos or in the mirror. LOL I can only do a 10 min round trip hike along the stream that passes by our house now. Thankfully, there are trees along it. To Mecca, really ? Wow. I have 2 grandchildren with my 50 yr old daughter. The boys are still single and live with us. We’re selling the property and moving from Missouri to New Mexico. Full circle for me – I was born there – my parents died there. It was my oldest son that wanted NM. I did my best not to influence or resist. Glad to read you tonight. Best wishes, as always.
