Terrific saturday.
Flood of quiet.
Above & beyond.
We had an a-m-a-z-i-n-g weekend.
On Saturday, a variation of a well-proven classic:
Beach + Mimi
This time felt special.
But how could it not given the many unique factors at play?
1. It was one of the last trips to Gdańsk before we leave.
The City of Neptun stole a special place in my heart this Autumn.
It feels like 3rd Home (after Boroszewo, Tczew).
If the weather was better in the winter, I could consider living there permanently (but really, would I?)
2. Hugi spent the previous 2 days glued to Nati, and it was our first boyz-only trip after she came back.
3. Mimi needed company. <Censored>
First a list of moments:
🐻 Gelateria
Uncle is paying (first salary), ice-cream are delicious, company is great.
What’s not to love?
Hugi was so sweet thanking Mimi for sponsoring dessert!
All the other time, too…
As if he felt that our 3rd comrade needed extra affection.
He always knows…
Compassionate giver.
🐻 Metropolia Food Hall
I really like this place.
Although my falafel was one of the worst I had, I still enjoyed our time there.
🐻 The beach
I can’t count how many Babkas I’ve built (you guessed it, all meticulously disintegrated by my sundozer)
I also can’t count how many effortless miles we’ve shared.
It’s always a good time at the beach.
🐻 Hand-feeding the cat
Mimi LOVES his cat Chapo.
I was mesmerized observing the Uncle and the Nephew hand-feed him delicacies.
Full heart moment 4 sho.
🐻 Netflix & Chill with Nati
We let loose, and how glad I am we did.
While an evening watching Top Model+ David Beckham stoned might not seem too exciting to many, it was exactly what we needed.
Hazy pleasures have their place too!
🐻 High Art
Words & images flow different under the influence.
Too much of it dampens both creativity & life satisfaction (through suppressing emotions & inviting bad habits).
But sometimes it helps me find a new perspective.
Higher!
There’s one more thing I want to remember:
Although we didn’t talk that much with Michał (I didn’t want to make him uncomfortable asking too many questions), I viscerally felt how meaningful our time together was.
The super long bear hug (it was Mimi on the prolongating side!) at the end felt so genuine.
Definitely one of the highlights of our brotherhood.
I love you so much, Mimi!
I’ll always be when you need me.
