InteGRATion into GRATeFULLness
Fine-tuning to my Presence
People in the Water
Only on the eighth
day of Chanukka I wasn't in Arad.
Therefore - on all the other days - I went as usual to the pool, twice a day.
[See my "Dolphin-Swimming"
in summer just like now in winter]
On Fridays the pool management offers a sportive activity for free.
I don't take part in this, since I no longer have the patience to "follow
orders",
be they the most beneficial ones for body and soul.
But what I discerned on the Chanuka Friday, deserved to be photographed:
There were actually two or three male men among the many women!
Usually men - though swimming in the pool like on every other day - do not
take part!
I was glad!
After 15 months in the pool of Modi'in, and more than 15 months in the pool of Arad, I still have difficulties with the people in the pool. It's a constant "trigger", the way they look (mostly "old, fat, ugly") and the way they swim "brekhot", i.e. from one end of the pool to the other, in a straight line between the ropes, back and forth, back and forth, or worse, "crawling" with big movements, on their bellies or on their backs, like orangutans, splashing as if nobody else existed beside them. But then, of course, I know, that "a trigger comes to point out a hole in my wholeness which now wants to heal", and my mind and heart love them for taking care of their bodies! |
