It is
impossible to forget Berlin.
The constant kaleidoscope of details one observes makes me think that Berlin is
more like the Solar System than a city.
And just
like the Solar System, there are different culture planets that all orbit
around the heart of this amazing place.
Each
culture planet is a world unto itself and thus, there are many ways
one can
perceive a ‘treat’.
Take for
an example, both bubble gum from some slightly worn gum dispenser marked with the
going dialogue of the street all over it,
or a
selection of delicate, old school sugary hits, served up in a refined tea room
or café, deliver the same desired effect of reward and treat,
depending on the culture
planet one is from.
The most
amazing thing about Berlin is that these culture planets live side by side, cheek
by jowl, overlapping forever.
