Topic: House & Garden Philosophy
A busy pre-departure evening was concluded with a proper family dinner. I think this was about the most mixed-feelings evening I had had till then. I was really, really happy to see my grandparents a last time before leaving, but at the same time was also very concerned about them not getting too fatigued. They are after all well past their eighties. Of course needless to say that what my parents, siblings and in-laws had produced made me a bit speechless as well. However, it was not till the very moment of my passing the emigration check point that all of us realised we were not to see each other for a substantial longer time.
