24 Nov New laughs
Come on, it shouldn’t be that hard. I took the Northern line to the north and Thank God I quickly arrived in Camden Town. As soon as I got off the station there was a guy selling blouses and I heard Seu Jorge (Brazilian singer) in the background.
I went through google street view to school and thought that little Victorian houses look prettier at Christmas. I arrived, opened the door and saw a table full of samples of plays and musicals dated from the beginning of 2020, which didn’t happen. Symbolic in the fight against COVID. Stopping culture is also a way of suffocating the population. Lack of joy also suffocates like lack of air. Laughter was suspended and suffocated by the pandemic. And theaters are part of my childhood, with ballet , jazz and school plays.
I went upstairs and like the other time I made an iced coffee and ate the free cookies. Jakob was alone and greeted. The other colleague sat down and asked:
-Is that Jesus?
-Yes!
-Usually I dont repair the screensaver, but today I did.
-Oh, I sleep with him every night.You know, spiritual way.
The class started out monotonous and guilt visiting me again and making me write a long letter to Mom, which I will never send.
Within three minutes I noticed that the bathroom door had : engaged.I thought : no way!Even the bathroom gets engaged, and i do’nt!U used this for the a joke.
At the end of a class full of new jokes, I went to recharge my cell phone and saw a job offer in the email.
“I have a proposal, I have a proposal” : I thought.
-Where are you going?-the teacher said.
-Mornington crescent.
-But Camden Town is this way!
-Thanks,I will go this way.
The street at first was very cute gave me the chills, and my intuition told me that the way was not there. Oh my God, me and my incredible lack of direction.
The daughter pointed me to the mother and she said: go straight and turn left.
Arriving at the tube station I saw a cinema called Odeon and I thought: classic cinema name. It can’t be a recliner, but it’s the closest I know so far. Spencer is on. Seeing a movie about Diana in London after facing face with her dress and feel your energy… priceless!
I noticed that the bars, pubs and restaurants were all closing early, 9 am. Just the way Dad approved.
When I got to the tube I saw that on the way I had gone the other way, which was longer, more curvy and darker. I could have gone straight, as I did when I left. As I write, I think: nothing more like me, at some point in my journey I went the hard way many times.
-Jeez, but you like to complicate things, said the 5th grade tutor.
As I retrieve this memory from the back of my memory, I think about how Thetahealing helped me digging into beliefs like idolatry for the hard, as if we had no right to let life flow. Healing with Money is a course I highly recommend.
On the way to the platform I saw a group of girls and one with a Louis Vuitton bag, she rudely imitated the voice coming from the stairs. At first I thought I was a drunk friend of hers, but it was an elderly beggar sitting in a corner with signs of delirium in his gorgeous pale blue eye. A scene more grotesque than the beggar’s own mental doom. I have read that during the London pandemic 5,000 homeless people were given shelter. It is the best of the Welfare State in the cradle of capitalism
