Excerpt from my diary “Home”
Hike between two islands
“The journey, the destination in sight, full speed ahead.
A certain path connects my two worlds.
Nothing always draws me back home like this. A place of trust, roots, family and friends. The feeling of arriving, like a feel-good coat that I put on. Anchored in evolution, if you are lucky enough to have one. But definitions are constantly changing and everything is in flux. Like the sea, calm waves, roaring waves,
deep silence and no sound of the sea to be heard below the surface.
The imagination inspires and transforms
me, it lets me fly as well as
I dive in, I pull myself out of my world at full speed and see the longed-for coast. I am a whale, guided by my inner compass. Magnetic fields
keep pulling me in the same direction, true to the satisfaction that awaits me.
The sea is my sea route between two islands.”
Christian Nienhaus
