JOANNA : DIFFERENTWORLD Space & Time according to J.

Space & Time according to J.

Posted on May 16th, 2008 by JOANNA : DIFFERENTWORLD JOANNA

For about a year now, whenever i am fed up with  so called  "everything" and i want silence, when i hear something ELSE is calling me, i can't ignore the Voice.
It is calling me to be closer to Eternity.
Loving Unexpected (travels) i pack "i-can't-live-without" things to my biggest suitcase, and i go to my estate at the Meditteranean coast.
I arrive late morning, sun is warming up the kitchen...
I open the big old door to the Garden....

I am closer to eternity: in nature, listening to the birds... i take a path leading south, registering what changed in the meantime, which tree is bigger, where can i create another lovely outdoor room,  and  than i am on a huge lawn where i have a big wood table that can seat 20 . from here we can see the sea.

But now i am alone for few days. I love to lie on a chair close to a pool and get lost in the bigbluesky. i fall asleep. a hummingbird drinking from lavender next to me- wakes me up.


Night comes. I love  the huge bedroom i have redone in the beginning. This room is now 40 x 20 feet. light wood floor, white walls.  Just my old fashioned bed, with white old fashioned linen sheets. large windows on the east and south side of the room.  one large blue painting on the oposite wall.

I love the time i have for my self , though i never know what time it is. These are the days of transformation, and i experience such profound Silence , barely notice any inner dialogue, i feel that i breath in  the whole beauty of the world.. it seems that i can breath out so much Joy - it can cover the whole world.

here i am always barefoot.

In the morning i am outside so early i can still see the stars and the moon.

days go by and suddenly i notice i need  something else.
friends come , we cook a lot of pasta and drink a lot of  everything everything!  we spend long nights at the big table in the garden, we are rolling on the grass, dance on the table becasue we still can and we will keep doing it until we can,  and you can't be really too old to dance on a table unless you lost the joy and ability to  make fun of yourself!
We have a lot of meaningful conversations, a lot of silly jokes.

And we party liek it is the end of the world.

when i can't take it any longer i say goodbye to the Sea. clean and preserve the table so it wont fade too quickly.

Than i am back to the "real " life . the "real "job.

______________________________________

It is 9pm. I am at the office. alone. I guess it is the end of my workday today.
I am working and driving. Going with the flow of traffic in Phoenix.
I never went anywhere. I didn't fly to Italy or France. Not even to Portugal.
But  for about a year now-iam getting speeding tickets while deeply in my thoughts- i am getting speeding tickets while my mind is looking at the sky above the meditteranean sea.
And one day, out of nowhere an invitation will arrive and i will not be surprised at all.

Everything is a matter of TIME

Wow! Joanna, that's so beautiful and healing, to have time for yourself and roll in the grass, to get lost inot the blue clear blue skies….

Thanks for sharing, love. One day perhaps I'll be with you if life permits, and share some quiet time and silence…together.


Love and hugs and abundance….
