I am two metres high male person living on the west coast of Holland in third biggiest city of Holland. My little home country only consist of 15 million people and if you know the size of Holland, you will find that rather amazing. My life started 33 years ago or, logical thinking, 34years ago in the south of Holland which we officialy call, The Netherlands. I am the youngest among three of us. After 2 years of breathing the air of Philips factories and Philips people and Philips shops, we left Philips town which is better know as Eindhoven. We moved to Valkenswaard, only 20 kilometers further, where I would spend my youth until I was 22. Nice village if you like small places. Nothing wrong but you couldn't do anything unnoticed. Nowadays it is much bigger and all the empty spaces are filled up with buildings, roads or otherwise. ( This sounds if I am old..) At the moment I realised that my feelings toward other people were different and in fact were not same as my parents and would rather mean that life would not consist of marriage etc, your life becomes a mid-life crises besides the fact that you are 22. It took 8 months to realise that the first step could only be taken by myself and not by others. It happened in phases and with the help of other people and someway you are still busy creating and building a life of your own. Searching among the trees of life and life of people around you. What would be the best way and what does my body, mind and brains want. It is hard to realise that almost 10 years later, you are still searching. I will not say that life is rotten or that I am not happy because I am. People have the ought thinking that happines only starts with someone next to you. A very dear person to me and relative once told me " that the first five years I should stay on my own and shouldn't attach myself to the first one who comes along". Since her position was hardly called from a pro-scene towards my feelings, she is a non, I really appreciate her advise she has been giving me over the years. We had very long talks in the past and still do although time these days is getting scarce. My life is pointed of beeing a human beeing and that my life is part of a bigger life. Something what is beyond my reach. After my own discovery and public entry that life will be different my surrounding reacted in their own way. I changed home for future, only months later, to give life a start, I moved back to Eindhoven. It took me another three years to take the final step and leave the past behind and to take a greater step forward, I moved again.. This time it was The Hague, where I found a spot which is still my place. With moving life, you leave past behind but most of the time you bring it along. It will be placed deep in your memory, hidden from exposure. The Hague had started as a great adventure and work and friends were all new. After eight years, I am still exploring the city and his people. If your mind is mixed up or if you need fresh air, the beach, wind and sea are only 2 miles away. As often as I travel, I always long to be home again. It took years for develloping that feeling. From the beginning of the 90's I had been on the run for myself and surrounding. Even when my life moved in '93, I still had the urge to be away. When I moved to this place that urge to be gone and pleasure of beeing home started to change. More and more I am happy to be where I am. Traveling is not just a hobby, it is the feeling of beeing on the move that keeps me doing it. You will hardly see me sitting anywhere for weeks without doing anything but sitting. I am always eager to be on the move. Nice talking to you, keep tuned for the second chapter of Rob Mystery World. . |
