I went on a business trip and spent the whole time (plus two extra nights, until I was OK to leave isolation) in a hotel room in Las Vegas. Thanks, people who „are sure they’re getting sick“ for flying on my airplane without masks. I was 😷. Wasn’t good enough. 😩

A few weeks ago I went to the Yoko Ono exhibit at the Gropius Bau, and really liked a lot of it. This was really fun: instructions to hammer a nail into the painting, and I chose to add a $2 bill (yes, that’s a real US bill) that I’ve carried in my wallet for almost 15 years. I loved participating.

So grateful for Sen. Booker, and glad that we're noticing this in Europe too. I don't want the world to see the disaster in the US going unopposed. Thank you @booker.senate.gov #hero !

I think all cats love paper, but not necessarily as much as Django does! #catsofbluesky

Good Monday morning! I have to say, I think Django has the better home office setup here.

I had a truly beautiful visit with my dearest Mama this month, a welcome break from Berlin winter in sweet California.

Seven years ago today my husband and I were about to move to Germany. It was a really hard time, as my dear stepfather was gravely ill and actually died on February 13th. Always a poignant time of year, with hope and loss all mixed together. This little guy, however, continues to brighten life.

Stay soft
Do not let the things that have hurt you. Turn you into a person that you are not.

Spent a restorative weekend mostly not thinking about the horrors of the world. Alpine carnival traditions are specifically about taking a break from the usual!

This is my vibe, these days, or that which I aspire to. I am working hard to love people for their best selves and hold space for their worst, rather than ignoring them, but you bet your buns I'm living my life, my way.

We don't even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward.
Your strength isn't standing up to haters. It's ignoring them and living your life, your way.

Social media has been half-toxic in my life for so long that it's hard to think about actually posting things again. But I can give it a try!
I've had a hard week, so I put on my mala, to remind me to be as compassionate as possible, also with those to cut me to the bone.
