any old iron

Ten months of rat race
A very interesting experience
12 passed, 1 got angry, 3 failed, 3 got lost, …
1 closed down, 1 got fired, 3 got lied to, …

All these lives touching, in an almost random way
the almost must be the suchness in life

about 80 students in 10 months,
then free time to recuperate

Nearly two months now,
Sleeping, sleeping and reading and sleeping again
And not feeling too well some of that time
Climbing out of ‘not being able to concentrate’
‘Winter blues’, not a burn-out,
‘Depleted batteries’,
Close to that 5% when the screen goes darker
And it shouts ‘please connect charger’

Then the first light
and one continues
The search
The passion
For Truth

Rereading the old blogposts
Then asking that question:

What’s different now?

  1. I look at the ‘what’s different now’ question just like observing dancers on a floor – more like 100 years ago. They’re all waltzing away; the music stops. Randomly, from time to time. And each time they find themselves in a different space and position. Other than that, nothing’s changed in the dance, itself. So in answer to your question, I would answer, ‘Nothing. And Everything.’ Aloha, Bert.
