GUIDED BY A YELLOW UMBRELLA

How often are we to question the essence of life? How long should we wait to accept that the deep understandings of life might never come? Or – rather – that most of this understanding might be simplicity itself?

“We create our own reality”. These are the words of Einstein, a knowledgeable and also a wise man. For it is not a question of knowledge to be able to understand the life circle and our true reality, it is in fact more a question of letting go of knowledge.

Travelling back in time, where instincts were treasured and necessary for survival of man - this might be the path to follow if we wish to once again be in peace with mother earth and all natural laws.

By using, or rather misusing, our minds we often end up trading off our reality – our experience of the Now. By default we live in our past memories, as we live in our future plans.

I like to pretend that I am guided by a large, yellow umbrella, in this quest to find - and to truly live - my very own reality. The umbrella functions as much as a shield to keep other people from opposing society, and its non-essential courtesies, on me – as it symbolizes the pure intent, warmth and light of the sun.

Guided by this yellow umbrella, I am being carried away on my true path, supported by the sun and the wind combined.
