Mind Travel..

Every once in a while, I get into the mode of mind travel, I decide to go somewhere completely different than my reality..I'm constantly going back to a tropical island, where palm trees dominate the skyline, pure white sand stretch as far as one can seee, and clear blue water merges with the sky, as the horizon reaches the shy setting sun in the timeless distance between Heaven and Earth.

Quiet..with only the soothing sound of the waves rushing to shore, carrying long lost memories of people..slowly, and a tropical bird hums in the background, with a unique..relaxing sound, while the hammock sways gently, as the coconut saturated sea breeze tickles it..and me.

Mind Travel..in the speed of thought..faster than the speed of light, no Passports..no visas, no jet lag.

  6. I used to undertake such travels when I was living in the bush (somewhere in Africa). We'd be yet to open an office in the middle of no-where, and we'd be sleeping on a sharshaf on the ground in the open escape, and star gazing - beautiful skies. After being lost in space for a while, to dream similar dreams to your mind travel :) Oh how amazing the world would be with simply no passports or visas, - I can deal with the jet-lags :)
