Jetzt wächst zusammen, was zusammen gehört.
(Now what belongs together, grows together)

Back where so many of my thoughts came from. Back where difficult decisions marked turnings points in my life. Back in a country that has been so far away and yet so close. Yesterday I walked through the streets here in Jyväskylä. just to see if anything had changed since I left the place in June 2003. What I figured in the end, was that not things here might have changed so much, but probably the way I see them. When your focus is narrowed down to not liking something – you can’t really enjoy things anymore. Now coming back – I see some beauty in things I never noticed. I see people I love and places I remember.

I believe.
