21st of August - Leaving

Grass is always greener on the other side? Is that why I am away from my homeland? No, for me the destinations are secondary, it matters who I travel with and who I'm going to reach.

Today I bought (thank you Nicolas) my ticket to Barcelona after weeks of doubting. On 5th of September I will wipe off the cypriot dust from my feet (Is that expression accurate only in estonian?) The time here has made my hair more blonde, my skin more tanned.. and maybe made me a bit smarter?

Obstacles - what are they telling us? Give up? Find another way? Overcome? It's different to everyone and in every situation. In the end it's all about 'decisions'. And whatever you decide, it's right. Has to be right for you - how else could you move on? Only without regret you can live for the moment and you are able to see how wonderful this moment can be. No matter what was before and what will come, ask yourself: "What is wrong with THIS moment?" and you will be surprised that most of the time there's nothing wrong. But only if you clear your mind of all of those thoughts about the past and hopes and fears of the future. And even if there is a problem in your current moment, then without the pollution of the past and the future, the solutions will come to you easily. So why is this all so difficult in the practice?

Today I will wipe off the dust of Turtle Bay from my feet.. though I would like to take it with me and keep it forever.
