A Day in Hamburg - 21 Jun 09

21 Jun 2009  Tornesch, Germany

Category: Really nothing

Friends

Today was a really nice day. First of all I want to thank all of my friends who told me, in reaction of yesterday’s diary, that they would like to travel with us and always help us in carrying. It is wonderful to have people who love you.

We had a great and spontaneous day today with friends. We actually planned to go to the North Sea with Regina, Jens and Celina, but then felt that it was too windy and cold for that. So we went to Hamburg and called Michael who then joined us with Andrea for a coffee/ tea / hot chocolate or ice cream. What we did not know before was that there was a celebration going on in Hamburg and many people were in the streets and all shops were open, too. And although it started raining then, we enjoyed our time very much.

After saying goodbye to Michael and Andrea we went to a very good Indian restaurant which we know from last time and had a delicious dinner. It was just a very nice day.

What's the Indian food like in Germany? IN America it isn't very similar. Will it is close but lots of chicken and red sauce.

Words of Wisdom

  • Negativity

    Our negativity lives on our back. It is difficult for us to see but we need to explore it. We can easily see the back of another person. Work on seeing and reducing your own negativity.

    Source
  • Responsibility

    Now you are an adult and you can take your own responsibility in your hands, even if you feel your parents were overprotective. Leave this past behind. This world is not evil and not that dangerous at all. It is there to enjoy.

    Source
  • Love

    Sometimes the mind creates an illusion in which true love cannot be seen. However love never dies and if you make an effort and don’t give importance to your ego, you can see clearly and find the love which was always there.

    Source
  • Sex

    Sexual feeling is just innocent and a part of your body. With your body growing, your feelings also get more mature with age.

    Source
  • Sex

    Sexual desire is natural in a healthy body and mind. Not having sexual interest is a sign that something is not right.

    Source
  • Parenting

    If you only ate when you were hungry, you would never have a problem with obesity. Adults and also children get hungry naturally. Don’t eat and don’t let them eat for their entertainment, from boredom or from hunger in their thoughts and eyes.

    Source
  • Prediction

    There is no plan and nobody knows what will happen tomorrow. We can take our decisions and have to take our responsibility for the consequences. Nobody knows before what will happen if you go one way or the other.

    Source
  • Trust

    We do not want to be controlled. And if we don’t want to be controlled, why do we have the wish to control somebody? Trust is the foundation of any relation or love. Trust and leave the idea of controlling your partner!

    Source
  • Religion

    There are places in this world where women are sold because religion says they are just like objects that a man possesses. Is religion really something you want to believe in?

    Source
  • Religion

    God lives in the heart and can come wherever you want. Temples and religious buildings are the centers of the business of religion where they see religious people as cows and milk them for money and donations, even by selling tickets. The more money you have, the quicker you can see God and the more blessings you get.

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion has created social structure - and now we have the ‘untouchable’ caste!

    Source
  • Sects

    Sects go to extremes - Either lots of sex or no sex at all!

    Source
  • Love

    Love should always be unconditional. If there is any condition, it is not really love. If someone leaves because of a condition you don't fulfil, you do not have to feel guilty or have an inferiority complex. Those who really love you, love you how you are, not because of something or a certain quality.

    Source
  • Relationship

    If you embarrass your partner in public, it is a sign of disharmony in relationship.

    Source
  • God

    Does God accept bribes from criminals?

    Source
  • Self-Confidence

    Don’t be overprotective. Lack of self-esteem, indecision and also problems with getting into company of others are the consequences. Don’t overprotect, give freedom and let them make their experiences. They will shape the world of tomorrow, so don’t try to press them into your world. Let them free.

    Source
  • Pets

    We create an animal for our entertainment and give it pain for the rest of its life. This is not taking care of nature, this is not how we should live. We should think more of the animal than of us. Does the animal like living like this? Can I give the animal everything that it would have in free nature, too?

    Source
  • Freedom

    If you believe that a one-night-stand, an ‘open relationship’ or homosexuality is morally wrong, you don’t need to have such relationships or be gay! You cannot however limit other people’s freedom by telling them of your ideas of morality and what is right or wrong.

    Source
  • Happiness

    You have everything that you need now! You have every reason to be happy! Be happy and love your life!

    Source
  • Ego

    Sometimes ego and anger can bring a darkness to your heart with which you do not even care about the happiness of your children although you love them. This love is not pure but driven by ego.
