UZ Pellenberg, April 2017
There is a map in the dining room . It’s very simple. All the tables are depicted very clearly, with the room and bed numbers in the right places, so you always know where to sit.
Only, no matter how often I look at it, I don’t see where to sit.
I know where to sit, because my roommate showed me yesterday, and I don’t forget things like that.
But if I depended on that map, I would never be in the right place.
I see all the tables, both in the room and on the map. I see all the chairs. I understand how they are represented on the map. But the link between the map and reality no longer seems to exist.
suddenly I remember the difficulty some of the cubs had with map reading and orientation, when I tried to explain it to them.
I have become a cub again.
in a few weeks I can start with the compass.
Maybe.
