How far is Paradise?

The house had become quiet from all the voices and calls, some children toys had fallen exhausted on the carpet, and the last  e-mails had been sent, leaving on the screen of my computer my beloved galaxy, inviting me to night journeys.

I opened the window to the cool breeze that came right through me awakening and reviving  all my senses. These are the moments I truly enjoy. Where the everyday frantic routine seizes, leaving some space to another exquisite yet undiscovered landscape.

I stood still in front of the screen, trying to listen to my breathing. My heart beat started to gradually resonate with a strange calling.

What is this secret frequency that asks us for the least of our endeavour? What is that which suddenly awakens our deepest  senses, starts to spread all over our existence and makes us feel the absolute connection with everything around us?

In the next room Kostas was tuning his 12 string guitar and from the very first chords he pulled me close like a magnet. In these hours and moment,  the most beautiful songs come to life. Every instrument and tool in the small studio was sharpened and intact. Mics and guitars, loops and plug ins, all like paint brushes on the invisible canvas that surrounded us.

We were simply the go betweens for the messages and  senses that kept so abundantly  pouring on us.

Paradise, no need to analyze, I'm falling in your eyes. Take me to your Paradise. I let my voice lead me to the landscapes unfolding inside me.

"So the dreaming of the dreamers keeps the world in course". I wonder if dreams make up reality.

I wonder if the Creator, knowing the nature of man, placed the forbidden fruit as a commercial message to intrigue our participation in the process of creation.  Participation   in the making of everyday Paradise.

We are naked in front of the miracle of creation constructed by our dreams. Our imagination is the connection with the immaterial world of dreams, of the possible, of our great expectations.

Our will is the only power capable of materializing the miracle into everyday life.

We simply have to take care of the purity of our sight and the sincerity of our choice.

And there's nothing I can change now. Nothing  to rewind.
