Those mystical, windy and grey autumn days, preparing me for another chilling winter to come.
Raindrops washing away our worries and playing with our thoughts....
I am loving some "monomad" days, painting colours for my weekends with new friends.
It’s hard for me to get used to the colder times again but hanging out with a close school friend and a few Steemians @vieanna, her son @brickster and @mundharmonika in-front of the gigantic, gothic St.Stephans Cathedral in the classic cafe, called “Cafe/Hotel am Stephansplatz”, made my weekend a wonderful one.
What a breathtaking view to the majestic church, observing the vibrant streetlife around, while sipping on a cup of Melange and chatting away about @steemit and @steemfest for hours, without moving away from this perfect spot.
Once again I am thinking of poetry looking outside of the window, enjoying a rainstorm at breakfast at my friends charming Viennese house.
Suddenly, from all the green around you,
something-you don't know what-has disappeared,
you feel it creeping closer to the window,
in total silence. From the nearby wood
you hear the urgent whistling of a plover,
reminding you of someone's Saint Jerome:
so much solitude and passion come from that one voice, whose fierce request the downpour.
The walls, with their ancient portraits, glide
away from us, cautiously, as though
they weren't supposed to hear what we are saying.
And reflected on the faded tapestries now;
the chill, uncertain sunlight of those long
childhood hours when you were so afraid.
by Rainer Maria Rilke

Liebe @mammasitta, war gestern eine sehr schöne Zeit mit euch in diesem Café, mit dem phantastischen Ausblick auf den Stephansdom!
Schönes Gedicht von Rilke!
Ich liebe Rilke !!!
Unser gemeinsamer Tag war so schön!
Aus: Die Gedichte 1910 bis 1922 (München, Frühjahr 1919)
I love the quote about being born again each morning. Love your photos too. Old European buildings, especially city centers and cobble stone streets bring back memories from my childhood. My Dad was in the Air Force and we traveled all over Europe when I was a very young child.
Everybody thinks that fall days are sad days but if you look at those photos you will understand that we can even find beauty in those days and paint them with coloured raindrops....so nice to hear from you again lovley lady @reddust
I love the fall and winter, it's just like sleep, the land wakes up refreshed in the spring <3
Yes, its time to sleep, rest and take time for ourselves much more....in summer I feel "guilty" if I stay in :)
Amazing pictures!
Raindrops are such a good subject for images ....
Wunderbarer Beitrag @mammasitta!! :) Passend und motivierend für die kalte, aber auch gemütliche Jahreszeit! :D
Auch die Fotos sind sehr schön!
Seitdem ich mich entschieden habe von Bali nach Wien zurückzukehren, kämpfe ich mit den verschiedensten Emotionen und auch mit der Zeit des Heilen. Ich versuche das Beste aus den kleinen Momenten zu machen und jeder Tag bringt mich näher zu mir selber „ mein Zu Hause“. Eigentlich hast Du mich motiviert eine eigenen Beitrag diesbezüglich zu schreiben was ich eigentlich damit meine aber vorher kommt noch Lissabon dran :)
Kann ich sehr gut verstehen.. !!
Sehr schön! :)
Super, dann freu ich mich schon auf deinen Beitrag :D
Alone in the house
Outside cold, rainy, windy
As from today the days are shorter
Early dark, long evenings
But wait; we cant accept to feel negative about it.
Go outside, meet friends and make fun, dont let the weather influence our feelings.
Live is to short, so summer is close again!
Warm Hug
I am always waiting for your lovley comments I enjoy so much 🙌🙌
each morning we are born anew. truth!
I am born again today and tomorrow ....
.....::And After tomorrow and so on ......
Lovely views! Each day gives us the opportunity to start anew and realize the wonderful gifts of just being alive.
Beautiful words !!!
I particularly love the fifth picture. Though I can't really place why I liked it. It may have something to do with the rain drops on the window or the frosty look that reminds me of my childhood behaviour of blowing air unto our frosted bathroom window while taking a hot bath :)
Poetic flow. Lovely place. Me like it <3
it’s the blurry view, mixed with the cute drops.
A few minutes later the sunshine was back
The cute drops makes all the difference :)
Finding beauty also in those raindrops, even though I don't really like the cold too much
I wish we could exchange temperature, it's night here and temperature is 32°C or 90°F
I could do with a small lower temperature <3
What a beautiful cathedral <3 What stories if those walls could talk, eh? It sounds like the perfect place to pass an afternoon in the company of great friends. Loved the poetry as well and very fitting. I wish you a fantastic time at Steemfest and hope to see lots of pictures and hear lots of stories when you return LOL <3 <3
Thank you so much. I’m really excited to spend some “warmer” days in Portugal. 🌺🌺🌺
will you come to steemfest @mammasitta ?
it must be really hard to adapting to cold weather again. 😃😃
It’s very hard to adjust to the cold indeed but I am already looking forward to a few more warmer days in Lisbon soon. Yes! @Steemfest it is!
That must be very nice ibu. have a good time over there, and hopely steem will rising again
anyway does lisbon warmer than austria?
Oh yes ! It’s much much warner because Portugal is more south. Spring weather.....
Autumn is a sad time for me. I do not like winter, it's too cold and slippery for me :) But we can find something good even on such gray, cold days. You proved it with today's message)
Its always been a sad time for me as well but I try to find the beauty in the 4 seasons. I lived in the tropics for 16 years and used to the heat and every day sunshine and guess what ....I missed those sad fall days sometimes.....
Wish you a great time and fun in Lisbon, and bring us back good news from Steemfest for the austrians steemians. Steem On!
Ach ! Das ist aber lieb von Dir zu hören. Ich freue mich schon auf einige warme Tage in Portugal. Bis bald!
The environment does indeed looks beautiful and warming .
Some prefer other ways .
Liked the Poem and the images
Danke !!!
Wow lovely post with lovely pictures. The way you construct your posts and these anmazing pictures is wonderful.
Its beeb long here, how are you?
I really appreciate your lovley words because it’s not so easy to create articles via phone but for now I don’t have much time to work on longer posts. My laptop has to wait until my return from Lisbon. I am really excited.
I wish you a good time in lisbon, have fun. And dont forget to take pictures💝💝💝💝🙌🙌🙌
Oh yes yes ...I will take a zillion of images :)
Looks nice and great view of street . Every day is important and more important is today. The day made me think my fault today. :( i could make it better than yesterday. Even though we try to see change in life but doing it more important.
Enjoy the beauty of today! That’s my goal to accept the past and have faith for the future.
It is really nice to have own definition. It makes world balanced with different thoughts . We are always competing with ourselves to make ourselves better than past.
Enjoy Sunday
Thinking of the future can be scary sometimes but as long as we have faith, it can be so much more exciting than the past. Thanks for your wishes.
You are most welcome :)
A nostalgic travel from the outside to the interior, just to get the promise of reborn!! Good vibes for you!!
Good vibes from your romantic words
Also den Regen kannst du gern behalten....den haben wir hier auch.... lol....das B&W als erstes gefällt mich sehr gut.....
10 Minuten später sieht die Welt schon wieder anders aus
ja das gefällt mir besser..... hier geht gerade die welt unter......
Bei uns geht die Sonne schon wieder auf haha
orrrr...... hier nix sonne.....grau in grau....
Pics with drops and buddha quote, all are beautiful
beautiful poetry, you can be the environment around something meaningful. what else is being accompanied by your close friend, it is a moment that may never be forgotten.
Isn’t Buddha right ??? We are reborn every day indeed.
yes, that is so true, we are always reborn, and much we can take, from a world full of life's twists. and grateful for his joy
Its hard to accept the failures of our past but I truly believe that we are reborn every single day with new changes
Vienna is tricky for shopping. Total buzz kill, right? but it also has some of the best values in europe, coming in second on the Index for total cost of luxury items.
When I lived in SE Asia I missed my home's culture....shopping is last on my mind :)

That’s so good to hear that you like My weekend moments I wanted to share
