Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world.

(Schopenhauer)

Our local runner, Jörg Klempin from Oberursel/Ts., has fewer than 100 days to go before he starts on this famous seven-day trek through the desert. For those who would like to know more about this hot event, check out this book Marathon des Sables: Die Grenze ist, wo die Vorstellungskraft endet
(only available in German).

Compassion is the basis of morality.

(Schopenhauer)

My daughter Margo just finished reading the following books in the series:

Ruby the Red Fairy, Amber the Orange Fairy, Saffron the Yellow Fairy, Fern the Green Fairy, Sky the Blue Fairy, Izzy the Indigo Fairy, and Heather the Violet Fairy.

She loved them as any little girl would love to read these interesting tales of sparkling fairies. Each book is divided into six chapters. Margo says the reader should start with Ruby the Red Fairy and then continue in order from book 1 – 7 to make sense.

Change alone is eternal, perpetual, immortal.

(Schopenhauer)
