It’s winter,
a man stops me,
What time is it ?
I look at my watch,
he is already gone,
I say half past six,
only the wind replies:
thank you.

Yep, Yann .. it's like we are so busy that we forget what we were doing, what we asked, who we care for in our rush to get to the next step. Life really does parallel board games - take two steps back and four forward and twirl and spin and maybe you will get to the end of the rainbow. Yep, maybe ... thank you.

This made me laugh a little, and was so nice to hear a reply from nature itself.

Yo Yann,

I think it's very possible that the man saw what time it was as soon as you looked at your watch. It is psychopathic behavior.

Oh, dear Yann, this is terrific. It mirrors so perfectly our time ... we are always in a hurry. You heard the wind's voice and that's great too!

There may be many reasons for that behaviour ... he immediately realized your watch wasn't a Rolex ... he was quicker than you to read the hour ... he was risking to miss his train ... he was a psychopath all right.

There is abundance of unbalanced people ... maybe because of loneliness.

Love,
Margherita
