Ein Dienstagslächeln …A Tuesday smile

Stella, oh, Stella

Ich hatte diesen Beitrag vorbereitet, aber nicht abgeschickt, seltsam …

… I created this post, but didn’t publish it, strange …

… Sometimes a heroic deed is that, what you don’t do! And: Sometimes appearances are deceiving.

Ich wünsche uns allen eine gut funktionierende Zivilcourage!

… I wish for us all to have a well functioning moral courage!
