Saturday, the 3rd of February

Diary, Memories, Old Age 1 Minute

Here I go. How about writing a post every day? Yes, I want to give it a go. Wish me luck that I can keep it up!

Heute ist ein schöner Tag!

Today is a nice day!

I was sitting outside in a light breeze feeling very content and meditating to my heart’s content. I memorised some things out of different stages of my life. For instance I thought about it how different people may actually see me. I am sure there was a time when a lot of people, mainly women, thought that I was something like a sex-pot. Behind my back they would make snide remarks about me. Anyway, this is how I remember it, that indeed some good loyal friends sometimes opened up to me about it.

Do a lot of people still see me that way now that I am approaching 90? What do you think?

Funny enough I still love to read and talk about sex very openly! It seems to me a lot has changed in sexual matters, especially during the last 20 years or so. For instance, very decent people choose not to get married anymore to have a sexual relationship. Also, more and more committed relationships do not last for very long. A person may have multiple relationships during a lifetime. It is really quite unusual now that a marriage lasts a lifetime for the percentage of divorces is on a steady increase. Partly maybe it has to do with that the average lifespan is more and more on the increase.

And what do you think has women’s liberation to do with it?

And how does it affect the children? In Western society the birthrate is getting very low. Who has still a lot of children?

We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it.

  1. You’ve set yourself a difficult task … doing a blog article day is quite demanding Yuta … I do one every day, but I would not recommend it for the faint hearted … as long as you have the “time” you’ll be ok …

    1. Of course, Ivor, you are right about this that it can be very demanding and sometimes I may not have enough time to write much. I hope I can then write at least a little bit. I am not on Face Book so do not have to write down anything there. I want to mention little things from way back that I can still remember a bit. With advancing age I may forget more and more, and typing with extremely bad eyesight is often pretty difficult. But for as long as I can still do something I would like to do at least that little bit that I can still do.
