Being here, being now, being home.

We change
We feel the same. We are not feeling immediately getting older, but we realize aging in larger steps. When we are in our thirties we are realizing that we are no more teenagers, in our fifties we are feeling that the twenties are over. However, overall we always believe we are the same. We are not realizing that life is change.
Everything changes. Our body does not only grow older, he regenerates himself regularly. Cells are replaced, renewed, repaired. So from which point onwards are we different to what we were before? Is it one cell exchange or twenty or a million? When is a change a change? It is a matter of definition and to define something it is a matter of our mental state.
Our mental state is how we realize our life and experience the world. We can change our mental state, we can accept the change and realize that the moment is now and we are now, so we are in the moment. We are not yesterday or tomorrow, we are right now. And this now is changing constantly.
Red sky, blue sky
Red sky, blue sky
Red sea, blue sea
Calm sea, clear sea
Calm mind, clear mind
Full mind, empty mind
Thoughts, no thoughts
Thinking, no thinking
Being, just being
Summer sun
Hot disk, blue sky.
Burning sand, winter comes soon.
Moon the trickster
His bright light is just a reflection.
His dance with stars is an illusion.
He is just a sphere made of rocks.
He tricks us in believing his majesty.
Summer heat
Hot summer's day, no fresh wind. Soon it will be over.
We are damned to be free, damn it!
We can run freely, but this is not the point.
We can talk freely, but this is not the point.
We can listen freely, but this is not the point.
The point is to reflect on your free-running.
The point is to reflect on your free-talking.
The point is to reflect on your free-listening.
We are damned to run, talk and listen freely.
We are damned to rethink our behavior.
We are damned to be free.
