Shocked by the events in Brussels. No words to describe this tragedy.
Hands on Bowie & Jimi 
Manmanman, hier zijn geen woorden voor, dit is allemaal zo onwerkelijk…
Ik ben er echt niet goed van. Ziet hier al heel de dag geschokt naar de tv te kijken…
Hier op`t werk loopt iedereen maar wat rond, bijna in shock, niet te doen…
Heb al met een paar mensen gesproken en iedereen was volledig verdwaasd, verdoofd, vol ongeloof…
Yes. I’ve been trying to find some for an hour and I can’t.
There are major problems with congested networks. Hope everything will work out fine for you…
The only congested network in these parts is in my head — I meant that I was trying to find words, not find someone. When this kind of thing keeps happening and language is all you have, you look for something to say, and it’s not there today.
So true! Thanks for the clarification…
De tout coeur avec vous…
Merci bien!
It’s just terrible.
The whole nation is in shock. This is so unreal…
I can imagine!
Glad to hear that you and Mr. Bowie are okay. My thought are with you and all of the other lovely people I got to know during my time there!
Thank you so much, my dear friend!
Herman, I thought of you and Mr. Bowie immediately. Glad you are okay. Please accept my loving thoughts and prayers for your country at this terrible time.
Thank you, my dear Sued51. Much appreciated!
Cowards, really, but vicious cowards.
So true. Morons.
Another vicious attack on innocents filling the world with fear, anger and bewilderment. It is heartbreaking.
What you can do in the fight against terrorism? This is all so confusing…
Dear, dear Herman . . . the only words I can find are those posted by a friend in response to last week’s Cote d’Ivoire outrage: “J’emmerde le terrorisme.” I appreciate the vulgarity. I don’t know if this link will work for you — but I found it heartening. Just a bunch of guys on the beach, a throw-together chorus of resistance. https://www.facebook.com/sogbety?fref=ts
Thank you for this heartwarming comment and your link, my dear friend. Much appreciated!
Herman, can you imagine? My drum teacher, and a group of students from here, were at this **very same place** in Côte d’Ivoire just two days before the terror!!! They returned to that place a week or so later — and they saw these same guys playing and singing. They told me this yesterday, on their safe return. Now, how are you doing, dear, after a few days have passed? Perhaps you will tell us in your next post.
My heart goes out to you. You and Mr. Bowie were immediately in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you, Misha! Much appreciated!
Herman, my heart goes out to people of Brussels and all the victims and their families. Glad you are safe. It is a tragedy beyond word.
Thank you, Inese. Much appreciated! It’s a very dark day…
It is, Herman! What an evil, cowardly act of hate!
Same here…..we immediately thought of you and Mr. B and are glad you’re alright – at least physically alright – these things take a mental toll on EVERYONE who abhors these tactics and nothing would make all of us happier than if this would STOP. It achieves nothing but horror and fear and anger. Anyway, sending big hugs……..sometimes it helps!
Love, Sam and Pam
Thank you so much for your nice comment, my dear Pam!
I forgot that you are in the Netherlands…but it is too close! I have a friend visiting France right now, and a friend visiting Berlin…the world is very small…we are all one!
Not in the Netherlands, I’m living in Belgium. My ancestors moved to Belgium a century ago…
Yes, I apologize, I was right the first time…a senior moment…confusing you with another blogger I follow! So Sorry! Thoughts are what counts! 😦
We were worried about you and your family, Mr Bowie. What a tragedy. Our heart breaks for all the innocent people and animals and for the world 😦 Soft Pawkisses 🙂 ❤
Thank you so much, my dear friend!
Dear Herman and Lovely Mr. Bowie, I am so sad to hear this, I am with you all there, I pray for all these people. This is tragic. so tragic. I do pray for a peaceful world. Love, nia
Thank you, Nia. Much appreciated! I know life in Turkey is very difficult and dangerous nowadays too…
Indeed
Thank you, Robert!
Yeah, we live so close to Brussels, it was a big scare again….
Thank you, my friends!
I am so sorry for the people of Belgium. I am glad you and Mr. Bowie are safe and my prayers are with those hurt by these evil attacks. So senseless, so sad.
Thank you so much, Angela!
Sorry doesn’t seem to be a strong enough word. I can’t imagine the horror of having one’s world become such a dangerous place in seconds.
Thank you, Debra. Much appreciated!
When I heard about this on the news, I thought of you and Mr Bowie immediately. I can’t even begin to express how sorrowful I feel for the people of Belgium. Unfortunately, I can relate with it. Ellie
Thank you so much for this heartwarming comment, Ellie!
Mr. Bowie, we send prayers to your country; we are truly sorry. We are happy you and dad are alright, and hope all your family members and friends are as well ♥♥♥
Thank you, my dear friend. Much appreciated!
Horrible news! My heart goes out to the people of Belgium. A very sad and dark day. 😦
Thank you so much, Jackie!
I looked at the comment box for a long time but no words came. Just know Australia stands beside you and in particular me. Angry ! and sad.
Thank you, my dear Sharon. Much appreciated!
😦 😦 😦 x 1000 and more.
Thank you, my dear friend!
Sending good thoughts to you and Mr. Bowie. It’s a sad world in which we live. Take care and be safe.
Thank you so much, Carol!
It’s awful and so sad 😦 I really feel for everyone in Belgium and Turkey at the moment! My friend Marco is in Brussels at the moment but thankfully he is ok.
Thank you, Sarah. Glad your friend is ok!
Me too!! Belgium has taken over our news programs completely now. I sometimes feel that the media shouldn’t give so much airtime to the terrorists!
So true!
Sadly 😦
Im beyond angered and annoyed by this latest act carried out by mindless nobodies. So glad you are safe. Please be brave and dont let them intimidate you.
Thank you so much, Eva!
Awoke to the news this morning and thought immediately of you and all the good people (and their animal companions) of Belgium. Stay strong, and kind! ❤
Thank you, my friend. Much appreciated!
So saddened by hearing those horrible news. Some angry thoughts tried to take place within me, but that won’t help, it’s creating even more negativity for the world. My compassion for you and your country is sending you love and peace. Hope you are having double espressos!
Thank you so much for this warm and wise comment, Cornelia. Much appreciated!
Horrific day. Consumed with thoughts for your country and the world. Wishing you much safety. So very sorry.
Thank you so much, Nickel!
Watching our evening news now, my gosh Herman. I am so sorry to hear this, for your country and the families who’ve lost loved ones. These insane villains, they’re inhumane and wrath with hatred that we can’t even comprehend. Be careful my friend, stay safe ❤
Thank you so much, my dear Boomdee!
The news reached Japan too. I’m at loss for words. I’m relieved you and your family are safe.
Thank you, Takami. Much appreciated!
I thoght of you. Hope you are well!
Thank you, Monni. Much appreciated!
I woke up to hear the news this morning .. And felt so sad. I’m so pleased that you are and Mr B are ok. I feel for you all .. Take care
Thank you so much, Julie!
Such devastating and tragic news. Such acts of hatred are incomprehensible. All my thoughts and support are with the people of Belgium. Just as a side note, I lived in Liège many years ago and still have friends there. I have a special place in my heart for Belgium. 🙂
Thank you for this warm comment, Lemony. Much appreciated!
I thought of you immediately. Such a sad day for your country and all people, really, that humans can do such devastation and kill and hurt so many. No, there are no good words for something we can not understand.
Thank you very much for this nice comment, my dear friend. Much appreciated!
Be safe and find peace in your own space.
Herman, I did not click the like button in protest of terrorism. Glad you are safe, so sad for your country.
Thank you, Mary J. Much appreciated!
One thing about the blogging world is that you get to know people all over the world. You also get to send up even more prayers ‘cuz no you know people who are close to where the tragedies are happening! The world shouldn’t be like this. Humans should be able to get along, but in this world it just won’t happen. We’re so glad that you’re safe but we’re so sad that tragedy happened.
Thank you for this heartwarming comment, my friends. Much appreciated!
I haven’t been on the blogosphere a lot lately but I wanted to let you know that you and your family were in my thoughts this week. I have many friends in Belgium (everyone is safe) and it makes me so sad when things like this happen. I hope everyone you know is ok and I send a special hug to Mr. Bowie.
Thank you so much for this nice and heartwarming comment, Letizia. Much appreciated!
