A friend wrote to me in email:
It's sort of amazing how you're traveling the world and people are looking at you—your life—on nearly a nightly basis, don't you think?
I realize I'd not been thinking. Not like that. And this friend is unique. He thinks in that way for me and asks the salient questions.
So, yes, it is quite amazing that I'm traveling in this way. Thank you for asking.
When you truly realize that this life and living is an
absurdity, then you join in the dance. You take part in
this absurdity. The body-mind organism continues to live
in the world, but without any sense of personal doership.

To be alive, to be able to see, to walk--it's all a miracle.

I remain wide-eyed and dumbfounded about all this accidental wandering. And a whole lot in awe.
HOLDING STILL, a film by Florian Riegel, is being screened at Duisburger Filmwoche 34 on November 3. It appears I'm going to be traveling again.
Die Duisburger Filmwoche ist das Festival des deutschsprachigen Dokumentarfilms. The Duisburg Film Week is the festival of the German documentary film.
