“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”
- Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
I've been really busy the past two days, spending time with my parents, carrying out all my errands (all 30 of them - including writing a letter to my mum each day I'm away), and now I'm finally leaving. I'm both excited and terrified. As Bob Marley says so well, "My fear is my only courage". It's back to Holland for ZM and I, after five years. As promised.
P.S. I'll be bringing my laptop and will be updating. See you guys, on the other side.
