Ein toller Erfahrungsbericht, Mutmacher, einfühlsame Betrachtungen und interessante Anekdoten. Eindrucksvoll erzählt Marie Luise Ritter über das Allein sein und erklärt den Unterschied zur Einsamkeit.

In diesem Bericht geht die Autorin über die konventionelle Betrachtungsweise hinaus und erzählt wie prägsam die Zeit mit sich selbst sein kann. Alleine sein bedeutet ingesamt auch überrascht zu werden, aus der Komfortzone raus in die Welt hinausgehen, Neues für sich entdecken, sich auf eine neue Art kennenzulernen.Die kleinen Momente die das Leben ausmachen, die Vielfältigkeit und das Reichtum des Erlebens und Erlebten mit seinen Ecken und Kanten.

Eine schöne Alternative bzw Bereicherung zum "Cafe am Rande der Welt". Ich war sehr gespannt auf diese eigentliche Zeitreise-Geschichte, die sich aber auch als ein Trostspender bzw. Aufzeiger zum Silberstreifen am Hoizont gezeigt hat. In einem Cafe in Japan gibt es einen besondren Sessel, wer sich in diesen setzt, kann in seine vergangenheit reise. Jedoch nur bis der Kaffee kalt wird, bzw, dieser muss bis dahin ausgetrunken sein, sonst kehrt man nict zurück.
In 4 Geschichten reisen die Protagonisten in bestimmte Situationen ihres Lebens zurück und versuchen mit diesen ins Reine zukommen, obwohl sie sie auch nicht mehr verändern können.
Ein interessantes Gedankenspiel, dass in ruhigem Stil erzählt wird und zum Erinnern einlädt. Harmonisch und einfühlsam erwächst hier aus Traurigem etwas positives und hoffnungsvolles.
A guide to climb the peak of ultimate life satisfaction.
He is quite personable, and explains how he got to the peak so you can follow not his footsteps but the principles and climb your own mountain.

I grew up in the same home in New England with my brother Jim. I was, however, preoccupied with my twin brother, Andy, in our formative years and through high school. It was in high school that I met my wife, Mary, marrying her in September 1972, after finishing at Cornell College in Mt. Vernon, Iowa in June. I received a Master of Science degree from the University of Illinois in 1975, after studying Zoology and Limnology. After graduate school, I worked with Mary's father in his painting business before accepting a position in the Office of Solid Waste at the United States Environmental Protection Agency in Washington, D.C. in 1977. I began with their program of pesticide disposal for a short time and then became a project officer, managing the program side for the Agency's contract office. Working with the contract officer, I helped the staff with contract pre-award and post-award requirements for their work. In that capacity, I was involved for 23 years in the development of a nationwide hazardous waste management program. Subsequently, I moved to the Office's municipal waste program that was promoting recycling and sustainability programs at the time. While not at work during the latter half of my career, I became interested in singing. For the better part of 20 years, I was involved with the New Dominion Chorale and the National Men's Chorus in the Washington, D.C. area. The New Dominion Chorale featured works by the Great Masters, while the National Men's Chorus showcased works specially arranged by the music director for the Chorus. Memorable concerts were given at the National Cathedral and the Kennedy Center as well as the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. For six years, I served on the Board of Directors of the National Men's Chorus, assisting with grant activities.I live with my wife in Arlington, Virginia with our two cats, Linus and Madeleine. We attend church regularly in Falls Church, Virginia. I have kept a faith-based journal for 38 years. In overcoming schizophrenia and finding joy, I have entered into full participation in life.
