Wie geht's?
There isn't much that you would call 'exciting' happening in Wozza's World right now. That's a good thing.
As Lao Tzu says, 'Racing and hunting madden the mind'.
Two weeks left of the school year, Nu Zild is in a holding pattern with containment efforts for the spread of covid-19 actually working so far (we're moving away from lockdowns and into a traffic light system that no one seems to understand), and spring is holding on - sharp coolish mornings in Central Hawke's Bay that eventually go sunny and warm.
It all feels like a kind of a lull and that's welcome - life can't be full bore, pedal to the meddle, 24-7.
These are the crucial times of tranquil restoration that Wordsworth talks of in Tintern Abbey:
In hours of weariness, sensations sweet,
Felt in the blood, and felt along the heart;
And passing even into my purer mind,
With tranquil restoration.
In my case, rather than think of the area around Tintern Abbey, it's a daily recollection of my friendship with two chums and how our lives, our friendship and love of music are intertwined.
Love and peace - Wozza
