Warm, weich, still, dunkel, are the four words I remembered one night not long ago. Do you know the language?
We were trying to sleep, but had to listen to ‘noise’ (music) untilĀ about 3am that night. With we I mean the usual occupants of the houseĀ and an unfortunate visitor from Auckland.
I was born in Germany, lived in Thailand for thirteen years, but I cannot remember a noisy night like that. (Maybe I am getting old.)
Long ago in Germany I learned that if you want to sleep you have to find a warm place, a soft place, a dark place and … a quiet place.
Quietness was missing that night and I was unable to do something about it!
