Inner Travels are cheaper!
Some guys are astronauts, some other astronomers, right?
- The guy who silently watch stars in his telescope sighs : he dreams he had the nerve to go.
- When the rocket launches, the other guy swears he should have stayed on solid ground.
In French, for “on solid ground” we say “sur le plancher des vaches” : “On cows’ floor”.
One explores the world and is disturbed by events, insecurity, unknowns, surprises, propositions, and danger and fear – one wants to go home, dreams of silence.
One lives into a quiet clean living space and sighs – though telling they’re happy & shielded, one wants to hunt, know, meet and explore.
Let’s quote the always funny Schopenhauer :
Oh, dang!
What to do what to do?
Tango? Try one then another? Find a way to do both? Explore from your quiet place? An astronomer in a rocket? A quiet moving exploring solid shielded bubble?
Thanks for reading!
