Reflections at the Greek Airport.
Here I am with nothing to do.
Didn’t bring anything to read for the 3.5 hour flight and the two hours at Kalamata Airport. I have beats sounding in my ears and sipping a Greek coffee. Beautiful.
Holidays are over for the year. Just a journey home and onwards …..
I like the thought of that – it is a journey into light not shadows or darkness. I have more than one hand to hold and to hold me. I feel the journey is very much the road less travelled but that is my desire. I want the uncertainty and the risk. I yearn to be dissatisfied and love it as I step through one experience into another. I will continue to daily refresh the irritation.
I have a week ahead which will have pleasure and stretch. Gun Randi and Oyvin are in London for a week. Great friends from Norway. We will be having a curry together and also a day out visiting Canterbury.
Also I have work in London and fly into Belfast at the week-end. The latter will bring the stretch as I dive into the brief and design something which will meet their needs. They are a team of young volunteers and key staff. I don’t know what to do. The objectives come first, then the methodology to create experiential learning. Motion changes emotion – so lots of that. Taking risk for my development and us all. Having some fun and adventures into new experiences. Love it love it.
As well as, and beyond that and all this – I have still to clear the decks from a busy run into Greece. I need to file zzzz, invoices zzzzz, and many other things that my Myers Briggs type tells me ‘these things are boring’.
Last night Joan and me huddled around my laptop to watch the Rugby League Grand Final. I am not clicking many words here.
We lost.
The best team won.
We lost the first match following 22 successive matches without a loss. With all the wins and great games – it hits hard when we lose.
I am just about recovering. I was really upset about it. Feeling riddled my mind. Feeling coming out in a slumped body frame. These emotions …… I must learn more about them.
Enough. The season is now over until February 2009. Soon we will haveRugby League World Cup in Australia. I hope that is good.
I wait for the ride home. I will sleep and listen to delectable beats on one or more of my three iPods.
I hope there are iPods in heaven with me and you.
I want to be with you both.
You are beautiful.
