Different Perspectives

I see now that Jack and Heaven Admin come from one perspective  regarding what to take along in the motor home on the Oneness Journey to Argentina and I come from another perspective altogether. I finally figured out what the difference is.

First of all, I want to say that there isn’t anything I can’t leave behind. There is a part of me that could walk out my door this minute and leave everything behind as it is without a backward glance.  Possessions are nothing compared to this beautiful opportunity that Heaven Admin offers me. Any happiness from possessions is short-lived. We all know that.  (This is not to say that I have no attachment to a bauble here and there!)

Here is what I think in part are the two different premises we come from.

Heaven Admin and Jack are thinking about what to take on the motor home for the purposes of the motor home trip alone.

My thinking has been more like this: When we get to Capilla del Monte, what do I have that we will want when we get there?

As Shakespeare said, “There’s the rub.”

Now I will see about what to do with my thinking.

That’s what gets stored on top of the motor home! And don’t forget that essentials can be shipped. Borrow a friend’s garage or basement to store ready-to-ship boxes until you get to Capillo.

Also what doesn’t always register with most men is how to pack efficiently. Most women sort of have this ingrained. I once got a full-size waterbed (broken down of course) in a small Ford SUVs (can’t remember the name of the thing now) WITH room for me and my husband.

Pam offers good insights! We can easily ship anything big or plonk it on top of the motorhome…as long as it does not interfere with my tent space. I’m planning to sleep on the roof ok.

Mmmm, yes from personal experience I noticed that ladies have practical efficiency with packing and arranging things. I have watched many women pack and have learnt a lot, but I’m still an amateur when it comes to packing.

There is one saying that always sticks in my mind: Happiest travelers, travel light.

How lovely to sleep under the stars, One. Both you and the stars so happy.

I am not good at packing. Not at all. A child can pack better than I do. There goes that theory about women!

Senor, when you come to pick me up, you will have the final say on what goes or not.
