A journey of the mind

Posted by Fabio on May 5, 2009 in Cronicle, Reflections

[singlepic id=3 w=320 h=240 float=left]As the progress of the journey have come to a very slow pace, I started wondering what can I do in the mean while to build a connection with both boys. So I thought that maybe small little adventures in the discovery of Ireland would be a good way to start. The past week end we travelled to the Giant Causeways, it was a slow start but we eventually got there and it was phenomenal the energy and enthusiasm they developed as they discovered this new place full of unusual rock formations. Both Matt and Rory are very fond of rocks and at some stage I was expecting them to want to bring back a memento, like a full hexagonal rock. I got away with a couple of collector crystals from the souvenir shops. It was a great day we had fun we took lots of interesting pictures, it was a mini adventure maybe not a unique one but still important. After that I started wandering who I’m really doing this journey for. The answer come strait out, yes west track is really for me and that is ok. I know that Matthew looks forward to it too so that makes it even better.

Flying lessons

Posted by Fabio on May 3, 2009 in Reflections

[singlepic id=2 w=320 h=240 float=left]It’s a beautiful May morning, I just got out to let sky for a run. What a magical place this is, the ground is wet from the night rain and sun rising is gracing everything with a beautiful shine. The chirping of birds is an open concerto and as I stand on the patio two white wagtails get closer and closer, one flying high and chirping vigorously the other having some difficulty keeping in the air just brushed my shoulder and slammed on the bannister. It took me few seconds to recognize what was it all about. It was a jung bird learning to fly and obviously the other was one of the parents giving instructions and supporting the efforts. they both got so close. I can just imagine the level of risk they took. They would never come so close in normal circumstances. All that risk just to learn to fly!!
