Heidegger once pronounced that boredom is the awareness of time passing.
When waiting all morning for a bus to leave, then all afternoon waiting for a plane to arrive, the only way to distract ourselves from the awareness of time passing was to busy ourselves; a walk, a coffee, a sweet shop, a book, a last lunch in the sun.
My favourite though had to be champagne family Uno.
Champagne just because I survived the week.
Champagne because we all survived the week.
Champagne because I feel happy, loved, safe, secure and tight as a family.
Champagne because… well, just because.. and because someone was right. Time passes and time helps heal and that’s worth celebrating.
