arabella Ella: oh yes of course!
arabella Ella: how lovely!
oO0Oo Resident: thanks.. blending in with the fountain ;)
oO0Oo Resident: last we spoke you were travelling... wonder how your travels are going
arabella Ella: apologies i seem to have chat lag my chat is not appearing!
arabella Ella: it may come up later!
arabella Ella: well in the past month or so i visited armenia and spain and it was really a great experience each time!
oO0Oo Resident: no worries... ah.. here it is :) Glad they were good experiences... such seemingly different places
arabella Ella: yes they are certainly very different huge contrasts
arabella Ella: life is spain is or seems to be laid back and they seem to have a good quality of life
arabella Ella: whereas in armenia many people outside the capital city yerevan are very poor and it can be sad at times ... problems with unemployment, etc.
arabella Ella: also armenia is at war with azerbajan
oO0Oo Resident: If I heard you correctly when we spoke before, you travel frequently.. it affords a corridor of fresh perspectives, and those first instinctual hits of places and situations can be very insightful
arabella Ella: well i dont think i travel that often compared to some other people i know but i cant complain either :)
arabella Ella: and yes travelling i find does open perspectives and somehow gets one to see so many different things and get to know so many people
oO0Oo Resident: sounds pleasant .. and expansive :)
oO0Oo Resident: not every feeling of course
arabella Ella: oh yes! do you travel too?

--BELL--

oO0Oo Resident: I like the sense of movement in travel, but don't get the opportunity as much as I would like. I therefore attempt to see things freshly whenever I can ;)
arabella Ella: what a lovely way to put it!
arabella Ella: altho i guess it is not always easy to see things with fresh eyes is it?
oO0Oo Resident: no... the intellectual truth of the newness and uniqueness of phenomena is clear... but I cannot contact that visceral alivenes and flow by simply trying or thinking about it...
oO0Oo Resident: finding ways to be stable and present helps me appreciate the world in a new way
arabella Ella: yes how lovely!
arabella Ella: i'm afraid i gtg
arabella Ella: some friends calling me to join them
arabella Ella: but lovely seeing you here
arabella Ella: bye for now

oO0Oo Resident: kk bye :)
arabella Ella: nice to talk to you too!
arabella Ella: bye!
oO0Oo Resident: :)))
