Raise your Moon-Dragons to sail on the Winds

“Lets take a different way”, it went through my mind as I took my bike outside to go to the swimmingpool. So, to start in a more attentive and relaxed modus, I would surely miss sunrise. Doing my swimming rounds by that time. But soon it appeared much more pleasant to drive through the small parks - not the shortest way! - listening to the many birds, seeing the few people already in their daily jobtrack. Halting to enjoy the pinkrose skies and making some pictures.

In the pool I did everything at ease, probably only half of “my normal program”. Is someone complaining about such utter irresponsible lazyness? Without doubt the swimmers who were hurrying to keep their schedule up. Such a lack of style, bah, is typical for those scrawling old ladies in the sideline. Fortunately, I could enjoy and smile my WaterWay.

On top of that - leaving the pool - I didn’t take the direct way back home. The sun had risen, the day was waiting and I took the shortest way up through the dunes. And there I stood at the seaside. Incomparable to the Weser riverside. But so awakening and a new kind of experience: arriving at an unusual beach area after swimming and breathing the immense surface of that infinite watermass, rolling waves in the surf.

This is what happens when you change a bit your almost ritual routines. New experiences are given to you, seemingly of no importance. Because who would notice and/or care. Oh yes, I had done this before, but until today not yet in relation to swimming combined with seaside visiting. All kinds of creative hunches came wavering through.

They had to do with the interrelatedness of freedom, the sustainable quality of life and the “kenosis” (selfemptying) of individualistic consciousness. Sounds theoretical perhaps but these words form the paragraphs of the ongoing process of change by that daily poietical exercise, of which I’m telling you in this journal.

As you can see in this newcomers journal, Blip did not only change my/our life drastically. But more and deeper change is at stake and underway here. You are never too old for undoing your life from oppressive knots, caused by fear of life and of fully living your potentialities. Never too old to raise a Moon-Dragon and sail on the winds to unknown horizons.
