Which Extremity of the World Are You?
From the towering colossi at Rum and Monkey.
Imagine…a sphere…a transparent ball…light blue…soft colour…very clear…you can almost look through…feel this sphere being a glass…a very thin glass…a very blue ball….someone’s holding in their hands…fragile…so fragile that they’re afraid to breath onto it so that not to shatter it into pieces…they’ve been holding it for quite a while now…just holding it…looking at it…not daring to move with this treasure in their hands…not to drop it…though they do wish sometimes that they would not have such precious thing at all…fear to drop it makes them shimmer from inside out…anticipating that one day…they will thrown up the ball into the air and it will splash into gazillions of tiny pieces up there…into a millions little stars…into thousands sparkling wishes that came true…fantastic…
I hold my Sphere Of Dreams. And now it’s time to lift it up and let it shine in all directions…How long I’ve been dreaming of that?..I don’t know, maybe about 5-6 last years…[and who mentioned impatience, anyway?!]
Everybody have their own Dream of A Lifetime...A Journey which will take them somewhere out of the limits of the normal pleasureland...A Trip that would take the breath away and that will be The One for the rest of their life...A place so sacred, almost religious even for unbeliever...
It was that close to the failure…again…like many other times before…but then…something has happened…some little internet miracle…somewhere in the deep twists of a networks the call has been answered…positive…what could we do without online reservation facilities?!..this time it is – real. And it’s happening to me…I think, I need time to get used to this idea…
Imagine sunset…over the greatest river…ancient as the earth itself…carrying her waters along the sandy shores…Imagine feluccas...sliding lazily… Imagine a land of at least 7000 years of history…
I keep saying it to myself and keep refusing to believe that this is true...you cannot imagine how BIG this dream was...is...and how real it is now...oh, so real...real as the air tickets that I look at every now and then to ensure that it wasn’t a dream in my sleep...I'm going there...and I still cannot believe I am...in March...
