I´m sitting in this Tapas Cafe in Madrid right now.. waiting for my spanish friends to arrive. Of course they are late 😉 but I´m the same and totally harmonise with that .. everyone arrives 20 minutes late, so we will actually be there all at the same time. Today I´m on time because I came here straight from the airport after my arrival in Madrid. just told some friends that I will not be reachable in the next few days and not surprisingly they asked me if i´m a travelholic and if my work is just waiting for me until i return.. Well, I definitely love the free spirit of travelling and soaking in new adventures – every single travel is making me richer and leads me to new views and mindsets in life ; it takes me a big step forward in experience and also education regarding intercultural communication or understanding cultural behaviors just as it is totally normal to come minimum 30 minutes late in Spain 😉
When I came out of the airport today, I was thinking about passion, about sense in life.. while watching all this people running up and down the aisles which made me wondering about their single aims and objectives they are running for. If you think about it it is quite funny how 7,35 billion people move around the globe everyday, following completely different lifestyles, speaking different languages, working in different companies and all presenting one big picture. I mean.. have you ever thought of that aspect that every single person here plays some important role? Some people choose a specific role by working hard for some desired job, some becoming a CEO for example; then there are people just following guidelines and doing their daily bread job.. some are lucky and just run into something because they got an offer or they are enthusiastic about something and their only way is to get involved into it; and of course lots of people are just wandering around doing different things because they did not find their favourite one yet..
I know lots of people who are in search of their role, their dream, their vision. In my opinion a vision is growing on people´s mindsets and we can try everyday to grow closer to it. It does not work from one second to the other, it is a way we are going accompanied by lots of experiences, encounters and people shaping our way. Be hungry for experiences, for encounters that make you richer and help you to shape your way, find out who you are! And be creative.. the adventure awaits for you!! You just have to take a step out of your comfort zone.
Well..still sitting here and waiting for my friends to arrive. I am excitred about the adventure coming towards me in the next days. I did not plan or book anything in order to enjoy every moment to the fullest; no need to be in a hurry .. you will always make it in the end because you never know what adventure is going to wait for you after the next corner. Sometimes life is like a labyrinth like in the picture – full of adventures, new ideas, encounters with different people and new perspectives for you.
