Juss meets a grasshopper on island Hiiumaa.

When we were heading back from the island, i noticed the boat was full of people behind screens, phones and pc's illuminating, it was almost a bit scary. Beautiful people sitting next to each other and not communicating, not going to the deck to see the sea, the lighthouse, the sailing-boats that passed by. Im someone who enjoys surfing the net as well and is amazed of what great interviews you can find, what great articles, wonderful art, awesome ideas... but it's also tiring, extremely tiring. It's not like reading a book, where you gain energy i think, but this mosaic or rather fragmentation of the attention, that i can jump from one tap to the other, hear one thing and read another. It makes me stressed out somehow, as i am overflown by ideas and thoughts and impressions. A week long pause was just right and i might want to repeat it soon :) or make my internet -usage somehow more regulated, so that stuff gets done.

But before that, i enjoyed the interview with Jennifer Aniston inside the Actors Studio, being impressed how humble she is. And Dustin Hoffman just stole my heart; what a presens and emotionality.

Talking about books, last year i got a book for my birthday from Mervi Juusola, in English the title would be "..so that mom can handle it/deal with it(all)". A motherhood energy-book. It seems that it's only available in the finnish and estonian language. I tried reading it some time ago, but now i feel that it's time has come. Maybe i should do a little summary of it, when i finish?

Another finnish book i read some years ago is Kari Heusala's "Womens sexuality". I couldn't finish it, because i had to return it to the library, but i remember how the fist chapter about the history of the sexuality of women was just so hilarious. Im thinking of getting it again and posting some of the facts here. Just for laughs. 

To talk about our week on the island... well, there are words like beach, sea, sun, food, driving and then this emotional level, which i don't know yet how to share or if to share at all. I felt cleansed after we arrived back: was it the lack of a computer screen to hide behind, or just the idea of being so far away from everything/one else? But being together? The chance to go through a rainbow of emotions? Or the chance to hold hands, while lying in the sun, or just forgetting to worry in general? The chance to sleep long hours? Well.. all that.

Now i want to listen to a good old song...what could it be? The second one, that comes to mind:
