I'm not sure, in terms of awareness, if I really know how lucky I am to have this ability to SEE-- but I am coming to the conclusion, more and more, that it is something quite unique, and then there's the whole thing where losing and then regaining it gives you a renewed perspective of just how important it is. Because you have to realise, I only started regaining it this spring-- as I wrote in the zine, I didn't truly arrive in Cologne until seven months after moving there. I identified so much with your 'the time is now' entry of this summer because I was just learning myself, at the time, to seize opportunities, to see things.
Would you like to meet up for coffee sometime soon? It's been ages since I've had a meaningful conversation in German (so much of my personal life takes place in English nowadays).
