the strangeness of death… the miracle of life…
When we visit Ameland we are always take a ride on the beach. My father looks after seals that are stranded on Ameland because of illness or old age. Today my father was called in because of a dead seal. Half way he was called about a young life one on the far east side of the island. Found by people who were doing a sightseeing tour. The contrast couldn’t be greater.
Still think I should have answered my son when he asked repeatedly “Is he dead dad?” I didn’t want to break the spell the moment by talking.
