GRA - STUMBLE

You moved. now you are here. left your point of view to check on its validity. the field you stand on looks the same, most likely you replaced yourself modestly to avoid unforseen confusion. nevertheless you can't deny that a certain disorder is essential to convince yourself, that there is still clearness in your mind.

The new point is more distance, as you wished to approach things slowly, being more time given, letting more things happen beofre you comprehend them. you are used to integrate them in on of the beloved orders of your knowledge the moment you reached them doubt arises, wether the distance isn't too huge, uncomprehensive strange and vast. running and thus covering the distance to the matter in split second would provide harmony by knowing exactly who the opponent is. the quicker you know the more profound the experience could be.

You can't run.you stumble. you can't approach the things as they do stop moving linear around you. it plays back and fast forward quickly. you learn to enjoy the plumpness of your moves as you are tempted to define new limitations in order to get things clear. order appears to be given by the new angle, accompanied with unfamiliar points of focus. you start summing these points up. not collecting but merely adding them to each other. it appears to become a cluster disordered and unforseen. staring at the ad up you seem to reach the peek of a mountain. a new point of view is re-presented. if only you wanted to stay.
