A flaw is a difference which makes a difference
only as long as it is a flaw.

She asked

What are the dreams we share?

I answered

The dream of sharing dreams has come true.

Once upon a time, I asked a woman, who visited me, whether she would like to take a bath. Promptly, she asked me whether I offer my bathtub to all women. I said yes.

She, then, backed away from me and unmistakably signaled me that this answer was wrong. But, it wasn’t. Though, since then, and because I am such an honest liar I have to offer my bathtub to every woman.

Excuse me, but if you are a woman (preferably 21 or older) may I offer you to take a bath at my place?

She: Whew! You never decide!
Me: I always decide! Even if I decide not to decide.

We cannot but decide, even if we decide not to decide. The good thing about decisions is that they can be reconsidered and changed once they are made. Never before.

To approach
keep distance.

Wir können uns nur annähern,
indem wir Abstand halten.

In a discussion about a failing computer and hence unmet expectations my dialog partner who — as a matter of fact — is also owner of the computer, after some time said

I think the discussion is becoming rhetorical, now.

And I couldn’t but answer:

Well, true indeed.

That that is is that that is not is not.

Who are you?
Who is me?
The trying is me.
The trying not to is me.
Even the changing is me.
I am.
Different in a moment.
