Sometimes, during the first 35 years of my life, so before changing my eating habits, I always thought when I saw a beautiful picture, I want to go there and see that too. Almost like, if I go and see this, I'll be happy forever and all my problems will be solved.
I have visited incredible places in life so far, and I must say that they are only places. Certainly, some have an energy that resonates more with me than others, and for some it does not bother me to stay longer, now they are very often very similar. The living creatures in this place (or those with me), often have a greater impact than the place itself.
When I changed my eating habits, as can be read on this blog, most things in my life have also changed naturally. In that I find a positive direction. Especially mindfulness, the connection with nature and starting to look at the world with different eyes, was a breathtaking adventure.
So, to get back to the picture (I'm not pretending it's an excellent picture, I know that in the theory of a good picture, there are a lot of rules I screwed up here. I nevertheless find it pleasant to look at), I took it very close to home in Beauvechain, on a normal morning. I believe that this kind of perspective is available to us all the time and everywhere.
In the past, for me, this point of view had to be extremely obvious, so that no one could miss it, so that I could see it too. Today, I live very differently and I see this kind of thing all the time. What has changed? The way I look and walk in real life.
Before transport (whether walk, by bike, by car...) was a waste of time. It had to go as quickly as possible. If there is nothing I can do about time, then I had to do something about efficiency. I call people at those times, I read and answer messages, I do things I had to do at one time... all because of my resistance to wasting time.
Today, transportation is part of a choice I made. Whether it is to drive 20 minutes to pick up the children or 12 hours to visit someone, it is part of a choice I made. So I like this part too, to be fully present and see it as part of the experience. A little like, if I prepare 6 months for a one-night party that I organize, this organization is part of the party experience.
With this new perspective since I changed my eating habits, I move thru life. I have to say that I see these kinds of pictures all the time and everywhere. Life is beautiful, it's sometimes unfortunate how far I have to go to realize it.
