If you want it to be and if you are lucky enough...
Life...is short!
and it feels like it will never end.
On a ferry in İstanbul, upstairs, outside...trying to write at the back side of article pages, I definitely feel joy and sorrow at the same time. -just after coming back from Poland-
Joy, because of the euphoric feeling of the idea of Poland trip; sorrow, due to my desire to explore. Every minute of stability reminds me those feelings.
But.. I look for stability, a stability of exploration and joy. Not to places necessarily.
It is about belief.
Belief keeps you going on.
I believed...and trusted the voice in my heart. This time, actually, not only my heart but logic, hand in hand.
I took the opportunity, flew to Warszawa. Beginnning from the very first munite, excitement almost killed me! I survived, experience of sharing a lot with a gorgeous man!
Time flies...flies so so fast! And there I was. I was at the airport. Greetings with a smooth hug, a warm smile, a little kiss.
Was I dead?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then it started with all its excitement!
Still trying to understand whether I was in Warszawa or not, we walked to "patlıcan", with a famous sentence of his saying: "Patlıcanım, benim sevgilim!" (My aubergine, my lover!). Patlıcan took us to a lovely flat in the center of Warszawa. (for those who are puzzled, the color of the car gives the name :)
The moment I entered the flat, I had a "familiar" feeling. A feeling that I did not know the reason behind. A feeling as if I was already there before. May it was because of the huge Poland map on the wall. :) I always thought: if a person has a map on his/her wall, it is a must to know the person! Aaaaaand, I was right.
After a warm welcome and some meal, Warszawa was waiting for us. Meeting friends and chatting with them, as if we are never apart is what we first did there: completely matching with the spirit of this city!
I was like a little kid in the tram. Trying to memorize every part of this lovely and peaceful city full of lovely people. It was peaceful that it was making me think, think, think...how it would be to live there. The answer was easy: wonderful! -it can be a bit cold, I know but I know how to warm things up. :).-
We walked around the old part of the city, learning a lot about the history of it too; but I want to talk about history with another title...as you might guess why.
The parks really amazed me, all those happy people, and lovely lovely children in the parks, so nicely arranged gardens and palaces open to visits. I understood what I was looking for from a city when walking around. Even peacocks and squirrels around can make you feel like you are a character in a children's book!

Life is full of different aspects.
So Poland was. :)
It was like a bright reflection of my inner world. This was the connection with Warszawa and Poland.
Just one week can be full of a lot of experiences, good feelings, laughter and sharing, on the contrary to the lives full of emptiness for a life time. Feeling lucky about this, I am writing and writing, with a smile on my face.
Sometimes it is not complicated, just simple. You follow your dancing feelings and thought in your mind and heart, no matter what. This is called a type adventure in my language.
So this was the beginning.
An invitation. -A smile-
An opportunity. -wow, really it is!-
Taking it being lucky...-thank you universe-
and moments of joy...-unforgettable-
Ayça.
