Congratulations for being in love


Who is responsible that I have no more appetite?
Who disturbs my peace?
Why am I doing everything wrong?
Who makes me warm and then cold?

That is because of Peter.
He is my ideal.
Wearing a gray sweater and a red shawl
He has blue eyes and dark hair
and he is tall and handsome and 18 years old.

Peter believes girls are stupid.
He doesn’t care for them.
That’s how is Peter.

Peter, can’t you see
that I am sick of sadness
Peter, I am in love with you.

Peter is in the highest grade of our school
I wish I was there too
But when he sometimes looked at me
I was totally confused

Many fervent and loyal blog readers may wonder what this is all about.
Who is this Peter and who is talking about him here?

What you have just read is the translated text of a popular song in the Netherlands in the 1970’s.
It was sung by a choir of young girls and played often on the radio in the days there was no MTV yet.
Yesterday, for some unknown reason, this “Peter” song was playing in the head during the post siesta beach walk.
Somehow the brain cells where this song is stored became activated.

And over there in the brains were more memories connected to the “Peter”-song.
Like the memory that at the time of the success of the “Peter”-song, in the 1970’s, the oldest sister had reached her dating age.
And unfortunately for her, she had fallen love with a boy who also happened to have the name “Peter”.
When her two brothers and younger sister discovered her emotional involvement with this Peter, she was mercilessly teased.

And that does questions rise when fast forwarded to today.
Why did the brothers and sister of a young girl in love for the first time have to tease her so cruelly?
Why couldn’t they have told her that it was something marvelous, that they were all very happy for her and were wishing her the very best?
This is so puzzling now, in 2010, that being in love, as was the older sister in 1970, was seen as something to tease the person about.

There are no children in the slipstream of the pioneering photographer and it is during these kinds of reflections that they are dearly missed.
Because as a parent the children would have been inspired to see being in love as a fabulous event in life.
Something to celebrate, respect and enjoy.
Instead of teasing the person for being in love, gifts would be given and a party thrown.

The older sister so in love with Peter but teased to death married another guy.
Whose name was Paul.

Seeing somebody

When a thing happens in life, it is an event that stands by itself.
That very moment it is experienced unattached from a structure or a pattern where it may come from.

For example, if somebody is nasty to you, as much as you can, you deal effectively with the nastiness coming your way in that moment.
To neutralize it and to avoid becoming a victim of the nastiness.

But later when you are by yourself, you can use your time to reflect.
And when there were more incidents with that person, you will be able to group the remembered events.
To see them then in a context.
In a frame of time and with neutrality.
To maybe come to the conclusion that the person that was nasty, is actually often nasty and therefore is a nasty person.

This Spring three months were spend in Mexico with the Queen of Dreams.
A long time at the very location where life is now: at El Triple.
During that period at El Triple with the Queen of Dreams almost every day something unpleasant happened.
And each incident was so grotesque that all efforts were needed to deal with the problem that was made.
Because of the frequency and the intensity of the complications and confrontations, never was there time to create distance and see things in perspective to come to conclusions.

Now there has been a return to El Triple where this Spring the dramatic events took place.
Because it is peaceful and quiet now, many memories come back of the amazing behavior and attitude of the person that was invited to come.
And now these events that are memorized group themselves and in this way a personality and character becomes clear.
Independent events weave themselves into a recognizable pattern.

When in a mode of retrospection, the person behind all those destructive activities is as in a MRI scanning machine.
A clear picture emerges who that person really is.

This evaluation of a period in life with someone changes the position from, what Carlos Castaneda calls, looking into seeing.
While a dramatic event unfolds, there can only be looking.
In surprise, in awe, in indignation and in amazement.
Too busy to control the situation to do more than simply looking.
But when time and separation create distance and neutrality, one can start seeing.

This is a great step forwards because when having an overall picture of how a person really is, to truly see a person, one can decide what place to give that person in the life.
So that it is happy, productive and in balance again.

Doctors for the heart needed

Recently lunch was in Newport Beach south of Los Angeles on a terrace of an Italian restaurant with a good friend.
The sun was shining and the food was good.
What do two men talk about when in such heaven-like circumstances?
Eventually always about women.
Not about women as such but about the experiences with them.

As life has organized it, both men on that Newport Beach terrace had separated recently and therefore a lot was to share.

One thing that for both was clear is that it is better now.
That it is a difficult period in the life but that the direction it is going in is good and that better times are coming.
Concerning women and a possible relationship with one of them.

The good friend speeds up the process by seeing a psycho-therapist weekly and being subscribed to a dating agency.
Regularly he dates women whose profile he likes but until now a suitable candidate has not been found.
At the foundation of this activity is the strong desire to want to have a partner.
To wish to share life with a woman.
And the mysterious question is whether it is a good method to actually have a desire.
To have the ambition to want to be with a woman.
That this desire and ambition gets too much in the way of falling in love in a pure way without any strings attached.
Desire and ambition are personal interests and a partner is asked to fulfill them.
So, how much chance has that woman to be chosen because of who she is?
With a lot of desire and ambition a partner might be found that will suit the own needs only.
And is it that a relationship is about?

The psycho-therapist is an older woman and when the good friend tells her that he is still full of anger towards the ex-wife he has separated, she responds by saying that anger is in fact pain.
Anger is pain.
That is something to think about.
It suggests that if the pain is accepted for what it is, the anger will not be there.
Fine.
But how to leave pain behind then?
How to dissolve it?

It is obvious that someone must first deal efficiently with pain that is a result of a separation before to get involved with a new partner.
To be without pain to have to offer a clean and healthy heart.

There must be experts among the many fervent and loyal blog readers who have ideas how to deal with pain after a separation.
What are they?

Smoking out helps

Returned to the world that surrounds the Fuso Szulc.
A different temperature, a different culture, a different life style.
A situation where things are done with intensity as if worshiping life.
Every activity a celebration.

Returning to the Fuso Szulc also brings back memories.
Of the last three months that life was in the expedition vehicle together with the Queen of Dreams.
Remembering that time in all harmony now and with enough distance in time and away from emotions made a disrupting conclusion follow.
It was an awful time.
From the beginning.
To the end.
Although a strong effort was made, nothing can be remembered that was really nice.
All experiences were having difficulty, complexity and disharmony.

The fervent and loyal blog readers should keep in mind though that here and now the Queen of Dreams is not being blamed.
It is not about who was responsible.
If a person has Borderline Personality Disorder it depends how a partner respond to it how happy life together will be.
Obviously the pioneering photographer was unable to deal with it appropriately and effectively.
And has learned important lessons.
Like lesson number one.
No person ever will be invited anymore to come and live in the Fuso Szulc and experience the specific and unique life style and locations that are visited unless that person has been known for enough time to be assured there are no unknown sides to the personality.

Now symbolic ceremonies are taking place in the Fuso Szulc to chase out the evil spirits that came to it this Spring to have the center where life evolves pure and natural as it used to be.

A loving lunch

The lunch appointment was exactly in the same place as on November 25, 2009.
The restaurant of Schiphol Airport near Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

This is where the Queen of Dreams was met almost one year ago for the first time.
To start a roller coaster of love, passion, affection, trouble and horror that ended three months ago.

But yesterday, as if nothing had happened, on the other side of the table, she was eating a tomato soup and drinking a tonic and was good company.

There is a delicate beauty in this.
Two persons that saw love develop between them.
A love that became impossible.
To have to separate.
But then to remain on speaking terms.
To bend the relationship into friendship.

Like David Bowie wrote:

THE HEART'S FILTHY
LESSON

There's always the Diamond friendly
Sitting in the Laugh Motel
The Heart's filthy lesson
With her hundred miles to hell

Oh, Ramona - if there was only something between us
Other than our clothes
Something in our skies
Something in our blood

It's the Heart's filthy lesson
Falls upon deaf ears

Oh Ramona, if there was only some kind of future
And these cerulean skies
Something in our skies
Something in our blood

Paddy oh Paddy,
I think I've lost my way
I'm already five years older I'm already in my grave
Will you carry me?

Paddy, what a fantastic death abyss
It's the Heart's filthy lesson

Tell the others.


See for yourself:

Landing on a soft mattress

Several fervent and loyal blog readers have recently noticed some dramatic changes have been taking place in the life of the pioneering photographer.
And many being with this blog for a long time and empathizing strongly with the protagonist would definitely appreciate to be allowed to understand better the current situation.

This sincere request cannot be denied.
And therefore an excerpt will be published here of a letter recently send to a dear friend who has been also a mental coach from the first day the Queen of Dreams entered the life.

“What surprises me is that my feelings for her have evaporated.
I do remember not too long ago I was crazy for her, desiring her, seeing a future with her.
And now there is nothing anymore.
There are moments I wonder if this is normal.
How can a total switch that quick be possible?
Does it say something about the depth of my emotions?
Or am I a survivor who pragmatically fights his way back to happiness again?

With due respect, I think I am normal and have seen that being involved with the Queen of Dreams was destructive and therefore I managed to change course”.

The dear friend and mental coach replied:

“Your feelings changing so dramatically regarding the Queen of Dreams is SO NORMAL.
Yes, you assessed the situation correctly. You are NORMAL, I am sorry to say (ha ha).

Once you had some distance from her, you were able to gain some objectivity and then you realized very deeply how brutal and negatively her existence in your life was.
It is totally normal that you would therefore let go of all your deep feelings for her”.

Now that it is confirmed that it is a normal response to a situation to have some time ago deep feelings that disappeared completely due to the events that took place, there is a comfort and relaxation.
Like landing after a heavy storm on a soft mattress and freely stretching and flexing the body, the mind and the heart.

Young love

A huge surprise!

Just now a letter was received from the very first girlfriend.
Who was the loved one in 1968 at the age of 19.

The letter included three images.
She had kept carefully.

It is unknown who made those pictures.
They may have been made with the camera on a tripod and remote control.
Also not available in the memory anymore is where those pictures were made.
But what is still in the memory, as if it was yesterday, is how it felt to have her in the arms.

Optimal optimism

A dear friend, bright and beautiful, sent yesterday a pamphlet.
To cheer up probably.
Because life is a little difficult now that the concept of being together with someone has changed to being with no one.
And this the dear friend and many others know and they all do a lot so that the sun is seen shining again.



The pamphlet is called "The Optimist Creed" and is published by "Optimist International".
An American organization based in Missouri.
Promoting itself with these words:

"Optimist International is an association of more than 2,900 Optimist Clubs around the world dedicated to "Bringing Out the Best in Kids."
Adult volunteers join Optimist Clubs to conduct positive service projects in their communities aimed at providing a helping hand to youth.
With their upbeat attitude, Optimist Club members help empower young people to be the best that they can be.
Each Optimist Club determines the needs of the young people in its community and conducts programs to meet those needs. Every year, Optimists conduct 65,000 service projects and serve well over six million young people."

Back to the pamphlet "The optimist Creed".
It asks to promise yourself 10 things.
That's a lot!
How to even remember all of those 10 promises?
And then, how realistic are they?

Promise 1.
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

Promise 2.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.

Promise 3.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.

Promise 4.
To look at the sunny side of everything and to make your optimism come true.

Promise 5.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.

Promise 6.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

Promise 7.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

Promise 8.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.

Promise 9.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

Promise 10.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

Be aware, fervent and loyal blog readers, these are promises.
Not ten commandments.
And be also aware that if you manage to 100 % live these promises and you manage to completely fulfill them, you are a Zen Master, an angel and Barack Obama, all in one person.

The most happy man in the world

In March 2005 the photo project "The most beautiful people in the world" was performed in San Francisco, USA.
Advertisements had been published in the San Francisco Chronicle asking people to respond when they believed they were the most beautiful people in the world.



Assistant Raphael Daly had a motorbike and together the city was crossed at high speeds to go to the houses of the people that were the most beautiful.
One of them was a 45 year old home furnishing designer by the name of Marvin Gerard Onley.
A very nice guy and therefore the whole day was spent with him.
And like with many people that were documented for the photo project "The most beautiful people in the world", infrequent contact continued by e-mail.



At the time, in 2005, Marvin had a partner.
Who was from Amsterdam, Holland, living and working there.
So they were together only for periods of time.
In this way they had a relationship for 19 years.
Until a few years ago, Marvin decided to just go for it.
He subleased his San Francisco apartment and emigrated to the Netherlands.
To live with his partner.
All the way.

Quite a move in life at the age of 48, one could say.
It is a demonstration of being flexible and courageous and a strong belief in love.

Last night was dinner with Marvin in the beautiful "First Class" restaurant of the Central Railway Station of Amsterdam.
A reunion after not meeting for five years.
And this warmth and friendship and closeness that was felt five years ago spending the day with him in San Francisco was instantly there again.



Now Marvin works as a consultant in an Amsterdam body care products shop.
Only part time because he wants to enjoy life too.
And this in the Netherlands is possible: with a part time job, sharing costs by living together, one needs to work only part time to have enough income.
And the other essential thing is that Marvin could get documents to legally live and work in Europe.

Marvin is a happy fellow.
The most beautiful man in the world.

The way to heaven

Recently a new friend was made.
She came to the opening of the current exhibition in an Amsterdam photo gallery.
A person with an appearance that initiates wondering.
A charisma attracting attention.
Excellent reasons to connect.

And then some time later, in a message, she writes:
I wonder how to walk the road of love.

This is like a Zen statement.
A question that is impossible to answer with the purpose to neutralize the thinking.
Because, who on earth can explain how to walk the road of love?
Nobody in this world and therefore plenty of preachers, psychologists, guru's and other charlatans offer what they say is the only and true answer.
To get people into a religion and a church.
To charge them hard earned money for the psychotherapeutic session.
To make them pay for the Rolls Royces and diamond watches.
Or to confuse them with pseudo truths.

Besides making fabulous music, Madonna also writes most interesting texts.
Full of wisdom.
And she had something to say concerning the question of the new friend.
In her song "Don't tell me".
Where she sings:

Tell me love isn't true
It's just something that we do
Tell me everything I'm not but
please don't tell me to stop


What we can learn from this text is that we should not wonder about such things like how to walk the road of love.
And to simply walk the road without wondering.

There is a similar thing with walking in general.
We walk and don't think about how exactly we manage to walk.
As soon as we focus on the walking, how this precisely is going, we very likely will stumble and fall.

There are lots of things in life we better not wonder about.
Because wondering about certain things means we sabotage and blockade them.
The spontaneity disappears.
The things can't go by themselves anymore.
The natural flow is seriously disturbed.

Therefore it seems that the friend should discover that the key to walk the road of love is to just not wonder about it.
And how to stop wondering?
Just fall in love, don't think and let it go.
That's the way to heaven.

Finally fray free

There has been a major change taking place in the life and as a consequence the status has switched to single.
This has an important impact although not in a negative way.

One of the positive effects is a rallying around of friends and family.
They are of great support and are very good in suggesting and convincing that the future is bright in spite of it all.
They call up.
They send messages.
They invite.
They care.

And then there is this cat.
In the temporary house in Amsterdam where now lodged, often a big red cat enters.
He comes and sits as if to give support, warmth and affection.
As if he knows this will help to reach in a comfortable way a new stage in life.





In fact, the new life in total freedom is enjoyed very much.
It has become simple and pure.
Focused now on those things that are really important and blissful.
To observe things in life occur in peace and harmony.

The rapids are behind and the floating in the river of life fray-free again.

Human warmth

What I need, the Queen of Dreams said this morning, is human warmth.
And she moved herself against the other body and in a most close embrace enjoyed all the warmth she longed for.

Human warmth?
Yes, the one that is different from the warmth one can feel when taking a sunbath.
Which is also an exquisite sensation: to feel the sun warming the naked skin.
There are people who spend hours laying in the sun to feel this warmth.
Enjoying how the body absorbs it to make the muscles and the bones feel young again.
Flexible and painless.

Human warmth?
The one that is different from the warmth of a heater.
From an electric heater or a gas heater.
Or from a wood stove or the radiator of a central heating system.
To put the body close to it and feel the warmth radiating while outside it is snowing and the wind blows the animals into their hideouts.
To feel the warmth on one side of the body and the cold on the other side.
To put the hands to the fire and feel the energy from wood logs that have been growing for years donating now the warmth one craves for.

Human warmth?
The one that is different from the warmth that feels when one takes a bath.
In a bathtub or in the warm sea.
When the water is maybe 25º C (77º F).
To enter the bathtub and immediately feel this ultimate comfort of the perfect harmony between the temperature of the body and the one of the water.
Or to dive into the warm sea and immediately feel a unification with the water because of its wonderful temperature.
In the steaming bathtub or the tropical sea, one can feel like being surrounded by warmth as during the time when a child in the womb of the mother.

But all these situations with warmth, in the sun, near the fire and in the sea, do not compare to the warmth the Queen of Dreams found this morning.
Because human warmth is more than just temperature.
It comes with love.



.

Wednesday, May 5, 2010

For all of us.

"Never in my life a woman loved me so much as you do".

To this the Queen of Dreams replied:
" You feel so much love from me because you have become able now to open your heart and receive this love".

And again, as so often, the Queen of Dreams is right.

For all of us.

In the heart forever

Friends.
We all have friends.

Because friends are vital to have a happy life.
To have somebody who is close and with who much can be shared.
To have somebody for who we are always available when the friend is in need.

One of the oldest friends is a film director from France.
The first time he was met was on a canal boat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands in 1986.
Immediately there was a special connection and soon after the friendship continued during long stays in Paris, France.

This friendship has lasted now for over forty years.
And although there have been intervals that there were no meetings in person for quite some time, each new opportunity of getting together instantly this special connection existed again.

It combined with the birthday when there was a new and long conversation very recently.
One friend in a hotel room in Montreal, Canada and the other friend in a camper in Mexico.
Communicating from laptop computers with Skype on the Internet.

And in spite of the modern but rather superficial technique of communication, immediately there was a closeness and intimacy again as if the meeting was in one room.

It is indescribable the joy and happiness that is felt to learn the long time friend is healthy, happy and doing very well.
And to be able to inform the friend that the conditions on the own side are absolutely the same.
The joy and happiness to realize that 40 years have gone by and that both of the comrades are still doing well and continue to be in warm friendship.
That they have not fallen into any kind of serious and fatal suffering.

During the conversation, seeing each other on the computer screen, a silence occurred.
A silence that lasted that long that it obtained a very special meaning.
A silence that opened the way to feel something extraordinary:
the deep realization that the long time friend has been and will be in the heart forever.

the forever love forever

Let's have a cozy chat today about unconditional love.

Between two people there can be love.
And as we know love is abstract as it concerns feelings and magic.
Nevertheless, we know of a specific love that is called "unconditional love".

This "unconditional love" we find in the troves of the family.
Where in principle a mother and a father love in an unconditional way their children.
No matter what happens, the child is loved.
True, there are exceptions of parents who are so self obsessed and disturbed they have left this level of humanism and can love only money or themselves.
But in general every Daddy loves his son and every Mommy loves her daughter.

But even between cousins this miracle exists.
Because they are bonded by family links, having the same grandparents, they unconditionally love each other as cousin Jerzek in Poland constantly proves.

Between two persons, not related by blood, love can arise and flourish too, as we all have experienced hopefully.
But the fact is that this is not unconditional.
It is not necessarily forever and ever.
Till Kingdom comes.
But it might.
It could last a lifetime.
And by then the point is made: the love was unconditional.

Therefore love between two persons unrelated is very magical.
It is not automatic like it is with family.
It is a constant miracle.
A gift that is received every day and night.
And if it is celebrated and honored and respected and worked on and enjoyed it might eventually turn out to be unconditional.

Complete living

A man lives in an apartment in a building.
A simple flat.
A small living-room, a bedroom, a kitchen and a bathroom.
Just enough for a simple and easy life.

Because of tragic circumstances his sister becomes homeless.
And moves in with the man in the small flat.

Now there are two people living in the small living room.
Using the bathroom and the kitchen.
The woman sleeps in the bedroom and the man on the couch in the living room.

This goes relatively well.
Of course the man has lost his privacy now that his sister is around.
And he has to make several compromises to be able to live in peace with the sister.
But OK, he is helping out his sister and she is doing her best too.

Until one day the brother of the two occupants of the small flat knocks on the door.
He is in terrible circumstances and needs instantly a place to stay.
The brother and sister have no other option but to take in the stranded brother.
Now there are three people in the small living-room.
The sister still in the bedroom and the two men sleeping on the couch and one on an inflatable mattress on the floor of the living-room.
Three people now using the bathroom, when it is available, and cooking in the kitchen.

In a very short time the privacy of the original occupant of the apartment has reduced drastically.
And each one has to make tremendous compromises to have some kind of harmony in the flat.

Soon there are conflicts.
These three people simply live together in a space too small.
Irritations are born, arguing starts to take place and eventually, although they are close family members of each other, they are hating and fighting.

Eventually the man who owns the apartment just leaves.
It is impossible to live with two more people there.
That is not a life.

How different it is when someone is in the heart.
When a person comes to open the heart to let someone in.
In that situation it is felt that the more the other person is coming into the heart, the more elating it feels.
It is not a matter of sharing the existing space.
It is discovered that the heart is flexible.
It can expand and grow and become more vast to house the one who has come to be there.

And contrary to overcrowding in a house, the more the presence of the one in the heart is felt, the more happy it makes.
The heart expands infinitely and the emotions grow and flourish.

It is even so that a heart can have many who are there.
A heart is never full.
When a baby is born, it is immediately in the hearts of the ones involved.
Nobody is ever refused because a heart is full.

A person that lives alone in an apartment is not having problems how to use the available space and amenities.
And many prefer this way of living.
To be alone in the house
But to live with a heart that is closed, to be alone in the heart, is incomplete living.

From thinking to feeling.

From single to dual.
One effect is that on the body now scratches magically have appeared.
And that the space inside the Fuso Szulc has been halved.
But the major effect is the enlarging of the heart that is growing into a volume never experienced before.
Filled with beauty, bliss, harmony, peace, care, solidarity, concern and affection.

But also the sea contained two souls as if paradise can exist.
Floating on the waves with a bright sun in a blue sky.

This amount of happiness can be scaring.
It is of such a purity and intensity that the thinking comes up with the concept of guilt.
And fear and a sense that it is not deserved.
That such an extreme state can only come at a price.

But that is the thinking.
Moving into negative territory and into a time that is not.
While the feelings, totally in the here and now, are content and enjoying.
Entering every moment so deep there is no tomorrow.

From single to dual is from thinking to feeling.

From single to dual

This is the fifth effort this morning to try to write a posting.
It is impossible.
Every beginning goes nowhere and the resulting text is better deleted.

Reason is that an ultimate form of excitement is experienced.
Because today the one that is in the heart arrives.
Soon a journey to the airport starts to meet her there to bring her to Punta Boca del Salado.
Where life will be together again.

The mind therefore is unable to focus.
To come up with a good subject and to put that in a sense making story.

It is even so bad that the fingers get uncoordinated on the keyboard.
Because connection with the brain is lost.

That is occupied with major issues like: is it a good idea to bring flowers to the airport?
Or is it better not to offer flowers?
And if offering flowers is crucial, must they be dandelions or even roses?
Or maybe only one sunflower?
Or are flowers pathetic and will the waiting man in the arrival hall of the airport look like a fool standing there with flowers in his hand?
And will she burst out laughing?

And another vital issue: must deodorant be applied?
Or better not?
And if applying deodorant, in what quantity?
Or is the natural body smell more convincing?

You see, fervent and loyal blog reader, sometimes more important matters are to be focused on instead of writing a daily posting.

Or things to do are more important: now the interior of the camper needs to be thoroughly cleaned, fresh sheets put on the bed and clean towels in the bathroom.

It is going from single to dual and nothing gets in between.

And they lay down being one

Walking on the new road life suddenly had in mind as the one to journey, the traveller could see somebody approach.

Coming closer this person came.
Surrounded by an aura of an eternal beauty.

It was the Queen of Dreams.
Floating in elegance as angels do.

She embraced the traveller with all her warmth and made him enter into the love, wisdom and unity she is so full with.

Eloquently she said: "Michel, there are no roads to take. You are home already".

And they lay down in the water being one.
Hand in hand they are now meandering
in bliss with the river of life.

A sharp left, a sharp right

Sometimes life goes in a certain direction.
And then suddenly there is a sharp left or a sharp right.
By surprise and unexpected the course changes.

At that moment a lot depends on the own flexibility.
For being able to joyfully continue in life.
To trust life that the new direction is the best way.

Currently a sharp turn in life is experienced.
In fact a dramatic change of course with a high emotional and practical impact.

Undoubtedly there will be grief and sadness.
And this will be accepted and experienced as deeply as it should.

But it is in the nature not to look back.
Or even to look at the broken glass currently covering the floor of life.
That is.
Naturally the eyes and the mind and the heart are focused towards what is to come.
Looking forwards to what opportunities are laying ahead.

And through the tears one can see brightness and happiness.
Available to enter life again.
