About That Privacy Crap...

i like to answer at crow’s article in the
last issue of Out in the Mountains, march

again, and if i do understand that need for
freedom and greater fulfilment that we all
of us have to deal with,

relationships or encounters,

and that some of us ‘in love’ or in
‘close friendship’ are slower and builders
of intimacy & trust in relationships and
need more time or secured love-space

recognize '

accept that it takes time to feel our-
selves trusting & trusted with the others,
and to really change,...

on others, but it doesnt mean that each time
i hit myself against others’ silences thatitis
hiding all that stuff behind, '
if i do remember that for some of us the
possibilities are more restricted because
