46/52 Just breathe
Sometimes I feel dizzy just because my mind is too busy and running in circles. Then I need to remind myself to inhale, exhale and slow down.
Complete translation of the poem by Ingmar Heytze:
Everybody needs to be at some place,
anywhere except from here,
where everything flows.
In movement lies the city,
as emptiness between here and there.
Houses where a stranger lives,
dreams that are dreamt by another person.
Places to go to,
or to move away from.
What a noise
in all those heads!
Everybody needs to be somewhere.
Seen at Leidseweg, near Utrecht Central Station: one of those places where everybody seems to be in a hurry.
I wonder: how would the world look like if we would all slow down? And act a bit more like human beings instead of human doings?
"Our minds constantly produce thoughts, which if we are not careful, overtake us, like a flurry of gulls seeking warm open water in winter where the river meets the lake." ~Don Iannone
Working in the film industry for five years was either energetic, tediously boring or a combination of both during the productions. I always had a pencil and sketching pad handy just to pass the time. The energy in this doodle reflects the feeling I transferred on paper during takes when we were indirectly involved in the activities. This particular sketch was one of a series of drawings while working on the film, "They Shoot Horses, Don't They." Sometimes, while doodling Sidney Pollack, the director, would look over my shoulder to see the progress of my drawings. He mentioned at times he would adopt some of my images and ideas when he was composing his scenes. Kind of like a visionary piggy backing on a vision. Eventually some sketches would be reproduced as oil paintings. *"Busy minds"* frequently create theaters of profound ingenious imagination! *|http://rvmann.com/artwork/2352121_Dream_Factory_1969.html|*
normally i don't say much about what i post but there's a lot behind this one an since i lack eloquence with words please just note the song i was listening to this evening:
Kings of Leon, On Call
She said call me now baby, and I'd come a running.
She said call me now baby, and I'd come a running.
If you'd call me now, baby then I'd come a running.
I'm on call, to be there.
One and all, to be there.
And When I fall, to pieces.
Lord you know, I'll be there waiting.
To be there.
To be there.
I'm on call, to be there.
One and all, to be there.
And When I fall, to pieces.
Lord you know, I'll be there waiting.
I'm gon' brawl, so be there.
One for all, I'll be there.
And when they fall, to pieces.
Lord you know, I'll be there laughing...
“Master I cannot meditate, my mind is too busy.”
“Of course child, your breath is hurried and shallow. As you slow your breath to the depths of your belly, consciousness will become focused and introspective.
Meditation will become inevitable.”
