Experience

"An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered." - G. K. Chesterton, On Running After One's Hat


happen(ing)

Winding

not just considering but taking the chances

 

adventure - a happening

Something to Look At

and I could do it for hours not tiring one moment

a presence full of possibility, full of adventure and excitement

a continous becoming

unvordenklich unpreconceived

thus conception itself

Oh the Laughter, Oh the Adventure

So yet again we waited to be picked up and learned that something went wrong, it is either the wrong time or the wrong place, and it is usually the other party that is wrong about something because they had been too confident 😉.

Or maybe it is karma, just like on our honeymoon, when we touched down in Ibiza, it was raining and we were told that it had been raining for 48 hours now and that it will stop pretty soon because it never rains any longer. Well, it rained on for a whole week and even the river Santa Eularia was carrying water, something it had not done for at least a decade according to some local people. And yet again this is definitely the spice of life: Expect the unexpected.

Sense of Adventure

never minding or rather looking forward to those bruised knees and silly mishaps

cause one does not want to be but to live

The Art of Conception

The adventure  is to be actually in the moment and you will hopefully get something to look at.

In Extremo

 who isn't looking, begging, pining for adventure ?!

Matters of the Heart II

L'avenir, the things to come. Taking one step further, deploying the same Latin root of "advenire" - which is of course also in advent - it will be an adventure.

All the times I longed for it one, two, three, four, five, etc ...



Definitely a ladies' man!

Dig It

past the poison that gave you but one direction and still boggles the mind

 

down to a past  that was diverse and full of adventure and fun - simply marvellous

Stamps

 and stencils

 

do not provide much adventure

Boredom

Das Zeitalter, in dem ungeplant mit ungewollt Synonym wurde. The age when unplanned became synonymous with unwanted.


Where did the sense of adventure, surprise or even curiosity go....

As If

I tend to think that the only cause worth fighting for is a(n) (apparently) lost one.

"Im ruhigen Empfangszimmer,
dessen strenge Uhr eine Zeit vergießt,
die längst ohne Abenteuer und Staunen ist..."

"In the quiet front room,
whose rigorous clock spills a time,
that long since is without adventure and wonder..."

Excerpt from Rosas by Jorge Luis Borges

"Like Venice: always in peril and joy" - Michael Staab

Pro and Contra

 Contrasting, envisioning and imagining the choice, still hunting for the free will and the adventure.

Listen Carefully

and suddenly things will get a twist, like this dialogue lines from some adventure film from the 1960s.

"Er kommt von weit, weit her. Aus einem Land, wo die Menschen sich gegenseitig töteten, weil manche meinten, sie wären von Geburt aus besser als die anderen...Er hat nur eine Liebe und das ist ein Traum...Ein Wunschbild, dem er nachjagt sein Leben lang. Er glaubt, daß ein Mensch so gut ist wie der andere."

"He is from far, far away. From a country, where people killed each other, because some believed themselves by birth to be better than the others...He only knows one love and that is a dream...An ideal, that he has been chasing all his life. He believes that one human being is as much worth as the other."

Some movie I certainly watched as a child and which makes me wonder if I listened at the time or if only the action caught my attention...

My best wishes to becoming a full-fledged human being in all wonderful aspects.

There Is No Way

around the topsy-turvy, if one is looking for adventure and (true spiritual) experiences.


And I love it...Shake it/me, baby!

No Way

Set forth just trusting the gut feeling, never knowing the shape or form, or outcome.
