Words, they exist so that we can understand each other, when we cannot understand each other. Poets, people who know exactly how to arrange words, so they can capture a certain situation, cause a certain feeling, create an image in our head to feel almost as if we have experienced the same. But normally it depends on the reader/listener, because the degree of experience of the reader/listener, depends on the degree of his empathy. What did I mean by that? -Ah, yes! I was looking for words to describe how good I feel at the moment, but unfortunately I concluded that I am not too good with words, not that there are no words. I am not saying I will not even try.
The thing is, I am not doing anything, but literally nothing. I am in nature, I will not point you to a place, because you will try to visualise it, thinking that you will feel the same as I do here. Bummer! Behold, Jesus is risen, and all follow his footsteps, Buddha enlightened and all follow his footsteps, are you kidding me!!! Even in that sitting position? Meaning if you do not sit in that very same position, you will not be enlightened? Haha, you are really funny! Let me go back to the place I call home, where nature is natural and beautiful everywhere. Whether at sea or at a lake, it is the same. The only difference is, if you drink water from the sea, it will be salty, right? Nature is our first and true home, that is why only with her, we can feel so beautiful, peaceful, serene, relaxed, it is a cure for the soul, what more?
And? Words? How can I find the right words to describe this peace in my soul? And you are all there somewhere in the grey, you are all somewhere in a hurry, maybe you are reading these statements of mine in a hurry as well. What are you doing? Are you waiting for an event to arrive so you can go to nature? And then, you bring sound systems, you forget that the music in nature does not stop, you bring barbecues, meat, smoke, drink, disturb the peace! Are you offended? I will not apologise, as soon as you identify with this, you found yourself.
I already told you, I am not good with words, so if you want to feel what I am trying to say, and I cannot capture it in words, I swear, go home. Go home at least for a few days, alone, without technology, without occupation. You can only take a sheet of paper and a pen, and nothing more. Go in the natural home empty-handed, as the home deserves, with respect, to send you back in the grey, full of peace and with tranquillity. And enjoy!
