Orthodox Christians should write and paint and sing and dance. We should make movies and television shows. We should make clothes and produce textiles as art as well (the fullness of culture is itself too large to describe in a sentence, a paragraph or even a book). And in all these activities, they will be expressive of the fullness of our humanity without having to stick an icon on everything to prove its Orthodoxy.
-- Father Stephen in Glory to God for All Things

Wishes fulfilled

To live in the centre of a provincial town.

An old unique house with idiosyncrasies that I have to work around (I’m good at that).

To be rid of the annoying neighbours and their whiny children.

A roof terrace. Admittedly it needs some work, but it will be a little paradise.

Real built-in floor-to-ceiling bookshelves as opposed to something almost-right that we rigged ourselves.

A shower I can stand up in.

Getting up without having to hurry because there are three girls on my tail (they have their own bathroom now).

A dedicated laundry room (though it has to double as store room, because we lack a cellar, an attic and a shed).

Wooden floors, i.e. made of floorboards.

This.

Still, I’m not jaded and I don’t think I’ll ever be. Just enjoying all of it.
