Hello @EternalFlower @StanD
I wanted to come up with an idea that included all three of us as we have helped each other.
EternalFlower you welcomed StanD and myself and stayed with us.
That is the everlasting side of you that stands by people. A beautiful flower.
Is that who you are StanD. I just read that in your name. You are a person who stands by others. Caring and kind.
I am motion wanting to move in new directions find new meaning in life and move away from what has held me back for too long.
I love the boats on the sea and there are many all over the world
The aeroplanes fly all over the world also
What is your choice of travel StanD?
Your turns
Bye

Hey @Former-Member !
Am I invited to your thread?
I love the way you have described 'motion' - no longer being held back by what did hold you back for a long time. New day, new life, new pathways 🙂
This is a real encouragement.
I look forward to reading of your journey.
Cheers, tyme

I'm feeling so happy for us @Former-Member I wanted to reflect before I replied. These are my initial thoughts. I'm happy you were brave. I like how put my words in your title. I am valuable.
What is my choice of travel? I have never been asked this question before.
I'm feeling inadequate because I don't know the answer right away...I feel like other people are saying I am dumb for not knowing the answer.
I want to take my time and think.
I have ideas. They are fun. Not the right ones.

Hello @tyme @Former-Member @EternalFlower @chibam
I think it has to be flying. I have travelled on aeroplane once. Looking at the view outside the window, seeing clouds below me. I would love to try again. When the plane takes off. I like how it gets faster, louder intensity intensifying, then suddenly your floating in the air. It seems unreal. The plane trip I was on was about 2 hours. By the end, I wanted to get off. Feelings of claustrophobia. Feelings that bodies belong on ground not in the air. Feelings, that the whole time, my mind is using all it's distraction powers to keep me calm from the truth that I am up high & have a long way to fall. I am not the pilot. I don't know the pilot. I never met the pilot. I'm trusting he or she is keeping me safe, & all the other passengers.
I want to read what your favourite choice of travel is motion.
And Tyme , chibam, eternal flower.

You did so well @Former-Member and see all the replies
Thank you
I always imagine myself on a boat ⛵⛵⛵. I feel it would be a way to rpotwct myself from regular life and all its craziness
Where people are so cruel to each other. A little boat of warmth and care and safety. I think any place that is sparse and empty in a way makes me feel better than a place full of objects. More space to reflect and grow

Tough call, @Former-Member . I love the sight of a modern airliner flying. But as a passenger - especially if you don't get a window seat - the experience is a bit ho-hum. Hours on end sitting in a crowded, sterile tube.
Haven't done a lot of travel by boat, aside from a few city ferry rides. I didn't mind it. Did some recreational sailing in my youth; just up and down the length of a lake. That was fun.
I guess in the end I'd have to say I prefer flying for long trips, because it's faster. I'm very much a purpose-driven person, so I prefer to get where I need to go as quickly as possible.

@EternalFlowerHi. I liked your boat idea. I have been thinking about it today. I liked everyone's responses. I might want to cuddle up in that boat .. How big is it? A warm place of refuge.

Good question @StanD a big ship which has cost rooms and lots of space
I wander if there's something to it?
I have been thinking a lot about a retreat or getaways ....where would you go? How would you get there ?
A cabin seems nice...
