Being Thankful For...

The dreaded time  has arrived announced by the Thanksgiving dysfunctional family gatherings and consumeristic madness. This year I am on the other side of the planet, where, thankfully, there is no such holiday. It has been a challenging year, dealing with bullying and abuse with almost no support. Being in such far-away place brings healing and quiet.
After all, this year I have something important for being thankful: resiliance, standing strong during the several cowardly attacks, keeping positive behavior...and no loosing faith about angels, that, do exist.

Thanks Geelong for bringing peace and rest with your sun bathed shimmering waterfront.

camminando & practice | Overcoming Fear of Snakes at Dog Rocks

While the sun was setting in the south west horizon, I had a crucial life experience: the conquer of my fear of snakes —literal snakes. I ventured by myself with caution in an area which has witnessed the presence of poisonous snakes: Dog Rocks.
The takeaway: life is crowded with 'poisonous snakes'. The majority are metaphorical yet dangerously poisonous as the liberal ones. But often the main danger is the crippling fear.

This morning at sunrise I repeated the walk. Hundreds of sheeps were crowning the rocks. During my walk I stop for my practice "Finding the Axis Mundi" enjoying the magical landscape from an upside down standpoint.
