What Have You Come To Realize in 2022?
I realized I can trust myself. I've survived so much and I will survive whatever is coming next.

Allerliefste Pieter—Dearest Pieter
Dublin, October 14, 2022
Dearest Pieter,
My rock–my intellectual–hardworking, down–to–earth 'better half'!
We first saw each other 53 years ago. An inexplicable sympathy that grew into a pure–real love.
More than that: a fusion of two souls.
With the same feelings and drive–never lazy or too tired to do anything.
Committing yourself to many and only thinking of yourself at the end... and that even reluctantly!
A deep faith and with the help of God's blessing has given us so many years.
Also, undoubtedly many souls of loved ones who have accompanied us on our path together.
You asked so little for yourself. Often even pro bono for so many.
We are convinced that God will one day settle it! Our behavior and that of those who scarred your heart. We can only pray and ask: Father, forgive them—they don't know what they are doing—just as Jesus said in all his sufferings.
You are still good to all the birds and animals on our estate. You feed and protect them.
Even more intimate with our cats—they don't hang onto you so much for nothing. Animals feel how you really are and love you unconditionally. How proud I am of you—as I walk through the garden, where your hard work is visible everywhere. And no less in the house—what you've done yourself!!
There is no second Pieter.
Even the little oak clock that you recently managed to repair. And the silver clock! No, such an intelligent person, who still reads so much, is immortal—if it weren't for the body's inaction.
Thank goodness we captured your intellect in our book in 2020—for others especially. I was also able to highlight some things about our life together. You like to read it on your iPadPro and enjoy it. Makes me feel good and especially because I know there was never time for it before. Always doing a mega job or often driving someone else around and proudly showing our new homeland.
All those memories will remain—that is my anchor when you leave me behind to receive the final reward for you soul. I know you'll still be with me until I get to follow too.
Thank you for so much real love and see you later!

Every Girl's Name Holds 6 Truths About Her
Mariette
She has zero time for your drama.
She has a pure heart of gold.
She has always been an over thinker.
She never loses her sense of humor.
She misses someone very deeply.
She stands up for what she believes in.

A big dream of yours will finally come true—YES, we saw Mount Rushmore in South Dakota
BIG CHANGES
You are a pillar of strength, Pieter. You never ask for much, all you want is a simple, happy life full of love and contentment. You aren't afraid to work hard, especially for the important people in your life. Your weakness is that you're hiding your stress behind your smile, and you never complain. The past few years were not easy, but they taught you how strong you are. The rest of 2022 will be full of love and light! A big dream of yours will finally come true, Pieter!
Indeed, on July 19, 2022 we both went to Mount Rushmore in South Dakota!
CRAZY HORSE and MOUNT RUSHMORE, SOUTH DAKOTA | post about our visit
So true!
You are:
Exceptionally Strong
Your resilience level is: exceptionally gifted. You are mentally tough. A good analogy for you would be the Energizer Bunny -- basically something that just keeps going and going no matter what. You are able to overcome difficult situations and remain cool, calm and collected. You are always prepared to seek solutions and get back on track. You almost never let disappointments deter you from what you want -- instead, you stay focussed and plan to be successful. The hardships you've faced in your life have been instrumental in developing this kind of amazing strength and perseverance within you.

PICK A NAIL SHAPE TO SEE WHAT KIND OF WOMAN YOU ARE! — Stubborn
PICK A NAIL SHAPE TO SEE WHAT KIND OF WOMAN YOU ARE!
Mariette chose 6
Stubborn
You won't find a girl like Mariette twice, and you won't be able to forget her. She has a heart as big as the sun and a smile just as warm and bright. She's the kind of woman who could boil the ocean just to keep her loved ones safe and happy.
Mariette experienced a lot of pain in the past, it made her stronger, but it also made her more cautious. She doesn't need toxic people and fake friends in her life anymore. Whoever is loved by her is the luckiest person, but there'll be no love left for you, if you dare to abuse her trust.
It's a sure way to lose her forever.
