IS TIME TO FLY
Welcome to the very first entry of this blog.
Where are we? pretty much in the middle of nowhere.
I WANT YOU TO IMAGINE this picture in front of you. If ok with you. - You're flying in a massive military helicopter full with strange looking people in secretive mode all wearing black from head to toe. Dark sunglasses included for sexiness and drama. They surely look as if they knew what they are doing but not one acknowledge your presence by telling you something or even looking at you. You feel excited because the experience is mega cool and there's nothing to complain about. This heli-thingy is full of gadgets, the window on the side door shows a world of possibilities down there but you also know you've been flying for a very long time and the scenario bellow has changed radically from time to time which makes it a bit uncertain where are you going to land.
You know you are very well prepared to confront any challenge ahead since the vest you're wearing has been constructed with all the specifications required for a powerful adventure. How powerful? That we don't know. The fact that you are so heavily furnished makes you become aware of the possible dangers that awaits you and that adds the spice needed to create the ultimate experience. You hope they'll bring you down to earth but you begin question that possibility when they quickly slide the door open, putting in front of you the vastness of your next challenge. Beautiful yet intimidating.
With a playful attitude you wonder around asking to the silent crew about your parachute or the landing procedure but no one says anything and you only see the glance of an Evil look from one of the big guys guiding the expedition that stabs you right between your eyes like a sharp needle making you shout up instantly. You hear some words inside your mind even thou no one spoke to you. Those words say, 'Do not distract and listen'.
They begin to talk to each other but you can hardly hear what they're saying as their voices become muffled by all the background noise, and you begin to panic. You know you should be listening but can't hear a word they're saying. The beating of your heart is lauder than all their shouting, the noise from the propellers and the wind put together. You only hear few words that jump out from the fogginess of that moment. You listen to the words 'Careful-Danger-Trust him-' It looks like one of them isn't too convinced about your readiness for this challenge. Yes, that guy with the Evil Eye. He seems to not fully believe in you. He looks frightening and his uncertainty about you makes you feel even more determined to give your full attention and determination to produce a successful mission.
You sense the instructions have been given to each other and you hope someone will now talk to you as you wait for your parachute. Everyone disperses and take their positions. Evil Eye Guy, comes closer and grabs you from the back of your vest without a word and you feel tiny by his side. You can feel his powerful arm manipulating you like a marionette but you also feel his strength and some how you feel safe and protected.
You have no idea what's going to happen, He's wearing no parachute either and you think his about to through you out without warning. You wonder, 'am I supposed to discover how to fly by myself? You then remember that nobody gave you any previous instructions about this moment and your panic increases and begins to mix with your excitement. With a shaky voice you ask your Evil Eye friend to tell you what's going on. With not the slightest reaction from him you decide to stop worrying and await your destiny. In that moment he grabs you even tighter, you feel he's ready for action and your final thoughts are, 'Is he going to through me out? am I supposed to fly? Is there a flying gadget included in this wonder vest that I'm still not aware of? Would there be someone down there to catch me? If so, I hope he's handsome' and with that realisation, you smile at the presence of that silly thought in your mind. That makes your surprised Evil friend to look at you and without a word from his mouth, the same low tone voice appears in the back of your head and says 'Erase that smirk from your face' but you don't care about his attitude. You figure out the strangers voice is coming from him and even with a frown on his forehead you continue to smile to the wind. Is then when, his dark sunglasses give way slightly to show both of his bright blue eyes and every single hair of your body stands in attention as you feel overwhelmed by his presence and power (Lets not mention his beauty for the sake of suspense) And right at that moment you sense his eager determination to chocks you out into space.
And out you go.
-What the hell am I supposed to do??!! You shout with all the power of your lungs as you begin your descend but no sound comes out of you. Uncontrollable amounts of air fills your mouth and lungs making you eat your own thoughts. This is beyond anything describable. The mixture of awesomeness, beauty, secrecy and fear makes the whole experience the greatest moment of your life, even if it were the last one, you would leave happily this world having had the best of it all. So without any worries you take the chance to have fun and begin to enjoy the moment with a frisky attitude. Turning your free fall into a free style dance with the wind. Every cell of your body dances within you and the excitement explodes is million colours and emotions around. Your eyes begin to water and you feel your tears staying behind as your approach land. - A moment of silence to honour your possible last few breaths and thank whomever created that amazing experience for you. Grateful and peaceful you surrender to whatever is coming. Would something stop you from hitting the ground? maybe the vest will suddenly inflate and you'll end up bouncing all over the place, or what about if theres a massive trampoline that will catapult you into a different dimension, or maybe you will simply end up smashed like a mosquito on a windshield.
Whatever the ending, you are ok with it. You close your eyes and let it go.
Is in this moment when you feel someone securing you from behind and you know he's Evil Eyes Guy! You then turn your head around and give him the biggest of your smiles as the landing becomes ever so evident. You detect the tiniest of movement in his lips and know he's smiling and that makes you feel so happy and connected with Big Guy, from that moment on you know you can trust him and in some way you also feel the security of great times ahead.
Few more seconds to landing and this guy is not stopping or even slowing down. WTF is going on? You better do something Big Guy or we're going to.......
THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES....
Stay tuned
