By your side time is not an arrow, it is a peaceful pond that slowly
spreads out around a central point, and that point is you, necessary.
Penetrating this zone in form of a mountain lake is no easy task. But
once there we discover all kinds of things – the life that animates its
depths, the reflections of the sky, the variations in color when the wind
ripples its surface, and also the inhabitants, each of whom is creating
his own mountain lake. At other times, patience disappears; it has suddenly
left the cohort of elements that make up your atmosphere. The
weather changes, the magnetic force polarizes differently, we take out
our mental umbrellas that aren't really umbrellas but arabesques, we're
going to have to follow you.
