A la verticale de l’été
8 June 2007 by jaksoul
So for the next week or so HL is taking a well needed summer break.
Jb and I will be in france, walking through empty corn fields with kids and dogs, eating wonderful food and drinking a bit too much wine.
Nothing like getting away from everything to give you some perspective. It’s so easy to spend so much time dealing with everyday concerns that you never really appreciate all the amazing stuff that goes on the macro scale of your life.
As well as being one of my all time favourite ’sunshine’ tracks, Grace Jones ‘La Vie En Rose’ reminds me of sitting in a bar saying goodbye to a workmate (who’s wedding we’re going to tomorrow) and the way our memories seem to add rose-tinted hue to our lives, when we look back in retrospect.
It’s been 9 months (and almost 200 posts) since we started HL and so
much has happened, personally, in that time, it feels like we’ve been
on somekind of epic journey.
Well now it’s time to look back, enjoy the sun, and appreciate how far we’ve come.
Cause when we do, it gives us hope-hope that if keep moving with this velocity, then we might reach still greater heights.
