through a dirty window, I see a very Dutch landscape glide by its changes almost imperceptibleThe other day I took a train in The Netherlands. I love train rides, and how the landscape glides by the window. Constantly changing, and, in some cases, very much the same as years ago. In a world where everything is always in flux, things that stay the same stand out. So I noticed a typically Dutch landscape, with low skies, patches of trees, and stretched agricultural fields cut-through with little canals. In the distance, and sometimes quite close by, a little village with a church spire sticking out. If you are like me, inertia feels uncomfortable. But it also can make things feel familiar. And in control. That is what I liked about looking out of the window on this particular train ride: I found that in our world, change may be the only constant, it sometimes is just imperceptible.
