Klink and the psychiatrist

He was the man who wrote a letter stating he wouldn’t, he couldn’t find himself walking a right wing governmental path. He was the man who suddenly stepped out of the negotiations for a new government, because he felt there was not enough trust and confidence, and there were not enough grounds for cooperation. Me [...]

after the elections

The voters have spoken. The CDA has paid for the lying about NATO letters leading to the fall of the government. The VVD is the largest party now. It’ll be interesting how they deal with the recession, as their program shows more investments than income. The PVV of Geert Wilders has grown dramatically. His program [...]

I’ve been studying

Instead of doing the laundry, I studied today. With all that’s going on (see other blog), I needed theoretical insight to understand why someone approached our family in a way that doesn’t do right to the people we are.

Politics and youthcare

In 2005 we got a new law which would bring heaven on earth for those needing care for their children. Young people who needed support were not required anymore to go to different organizations to be diagnosed, receive support, guidance, therapy. Just one place would be sufficient: youthcare. Ofcourse it was not enough to listen [...]

Do you dream often?

Do you dream often? I was asked this last night by one of the children and it made me think. It’s a long time ago I remembered a dream. Ofcourse I know I’m dreaming every night, but I lack so much sleep, that I don’t wake up with memories of the dreams. Maybe the dreamcatcher [...]
