Story & Experience
We ended up spending the 21st June mostly on a boat. Wanting to do the Global Earth Exchange as well and because we anyway planned to do the Ritual of Beauty again for the Mediterranean Sea (and also because we did not have any camera and mobiles with us;) we thought for another possibility to give an act of Beauty as well as honoring the beauty of the Sea, that holds and digest so much of our garbage and leftovers in its depths (from while to while we saw some rubbish swimming on the waves). Instead of making a bird, because this was not possible, I started singing for the sea and its beauty, just the way it came out and continued sounding for a while and Urs and me just were there for this looooong moment aware, conscious and present. It was a simple act and a peaceful lovely meeting with the sea.
