After reading the letter it took several days to write an answer. There was an email and I had to send a digital answer.
In short, it boiled down to my suggestion that instead of the proposed 10 days, I propose a 30-day period. I could provide shelter for the entire period without asking anything for it.
I received a quick reply that Hira would like to come, but that the lockdown and flight stop did not allow that now and we agreed that we would travel to the Netherlands as soon as possible.
And immediately something was not right for me. It was difficult to tell some stories about Sensei and visit some places. I also did not have the money to travel a lot. Time …
I am a Shiatsu therapist by profession and since the lockdown and the measures I have no work and the question is whether that will still return sufficiently. Rethinking the livelihood has become a daily activity, even a routine.
Look, if I was honest with myself. ….
(Look at what [you] is writing…. If…. How if…. Be honest with yourself!)
well, I know….
I know deep down. It’s his father. And talking alone is not going to “give” anything to him.
A special trip? Yes…. but otherwise… ..
And if I approached this young man in the same way that his father, Sensei, did me, well… then there is only one thing.
And I can’t even ask him.
As if he has any idea what it is he is answering.
Still, I have to explain it to him in a certain way.
I was already very enthusiastic and started working. A 30-day program….
Starting point, I will let him experience everything I have learned from Sensei….
Wait….
Something is going wrong there …. Something is not right … I am missing something … but what?
I look to my left at the bookcase. Middle top shelf. There it is. The Bible.
What am I going to say about that?
Can hardly say that he should read it….
ok…. let it rest for a while.
