christening

unfortunately I have to miss the christening of my little friend, Fritz, there in Kiel, Germany. what a fine child he is. holding him over the days there at his home, began to recall the wonder of children when they are so young. life is essential, irreducible, refined, intense, and open. such luxury to be in such a state. it requires only that there are loving Others (in this case, Steffi & Zorak) around to allow this free life to be sustainable. the dialectic blessing and the burden of parenthood.

Freue dich und sei fröhlich!
Denn siehe, ich komme und
will bei Dir wohnen.
So spricht der Herr.
— Sacharja 2,14
