That unique home smell that you won't confuse with anything else. And that feeling when you unlock the door of your home after a long journey abroad. It seems that the heart will burst out of the chest. Such great excitement flooded me that there were no words left to describe it. I went from one room to another opening the windows and doors and kept trying to absorb those almost forgotten smells, that energy that can only be felt here. I'm home, I'm home... Only now did I realize how much I missed my home.
This trip was unexpectedly much longer than the previous ones. When I was in the Peloponnese, I didn't want to leave, and that foreign house had already become my own. The home left in the homeland seemed distant and cold. But we soon realized that we don't feel so well anywhere as at our own home. Here, it's all ours. Own language, own environment, own people, own nature, own food... We don't need to pretend to be someone, and we don't need to please anyone so that foreigners will accept you more easily into their circle. Here, we just live our life the way we want.
And more, I've been dreaming all year of visiting our sea, listening to its singing, standing in the wind so that it blows all the thoughts out of my head, to see sunset here, at home. This is my personal retreat, and tonight I got it.
Therefore, my first and many other walks will definitely be on our sandy beach. And while wading through the warm sun-kissed sand, I feel again how joy fills my chest. Sand. So silky, so soft, so light, which I have not seen anywhere in the Peloponnese. There, although the sea was just a few steps from our house, there were stones, only stones all around. And when your feet sink into the sand, you are surrounded by the indescribable bliss of home. Everywhere I go, it seems like my home. The sea and the seaside are my home too.
And the last rays of the sun before the sun sinks into the sea look like the most precious gold I have ever seen. How little, just a little bit of joy can ignite a huge torch of happiness in me. The sky is slowly turning golden... And it has become impossible not to dream...
What is man in nature? Nothing to infinity, and everything to nothing, the center between nothing and everything.
The sea... Anyone who knows me knows that it is my weakness. I can sit and look at the sea for hours. Peace, fullness, a sense of self, and many other positive sensations flow through my body. I always see the sea like for the first time. Shivers run through my skin, I forget everything and just explode with good emotions.
When it's difficult or very sad for me, I go to the beach. The sea is like a strong sedative for me. And such a relief, such peace bursts when I take a walk on the seashore. It's a place, sights and sounds that I'm already addicted to, but at the same time, I find fulfillment and peace.
Someone is looking for a miracle, and for someone, life itself is already a miracle. Surrender to the miracle of life, surrender to the power that created grass, pine, sea, rain, tears of happiness...
People ignore the miracle of life, forget, complain, no longer believe, fight... but no matter what they do, it is impossible to deny this all-encompassing creative power. The power that created man, nature, the universe, energy and our dreams, which have wings...
And after all, our dreams are like non-binding clouds in the sky. They appear and disappear again. Sometimes they disappear and never appear again on the horizon. Our dreams are free, because freedom is more important than the dreams themselves.
I still believe in miracles. I believe that every day that I live is a miracle for me. I am proud of who I am, where I am going, who I was or am I becoming. I am free to be anyone, go anywhere, live where I want, where my dreams take me. But most of all, I like to be in this moment, in this miracle of life.
