selected three books that I love, two out of three recommended books are childrens books. Weird.. My selected books obviously were not childrens books. Maybe because I selected Dutch books?
Do it! This summer I started waking up daily at 6 am for an hour of uninterrupted time of thinking and prayer before my little ones wake up. It's great, I'm so happy I did it and plan on doing it forever.
I find myself enjoying solitude and silence more and more. Craving it sometimes, almost. My mental health has improved a lot. It's like I never understood how much my brain needs the quiet alone time without any work planned.
That's funny. I'm Dutch too, and it was a big part of new years eve in my childhood. We watched it every year and loved it. I don't think I got the final joke about the 'procedure' that happens upstairs after the dinner :)
I always thought that almost all Dutchies had the same experience but maybe I was wrong
