šta vam je na umu

/ what’s on your mind

toga i najelitističniji borac za ekologiju svoju sreću mogao je

da potraži u osami neke divlje plaže ili reke.

Kada sam posle sedam dana plovidbe od Sidneja do Tahi-

tija izašla sa ćerkom željna ostvarenja svog sna da se okupamo

na Gogenovom ostrvu, domaćini su mi rekli: „kakva neobave-

štenost, pa ko se još danas kupa na Tahitiju, prljavo je... Morate

da idete na Moreu!“ Tako sam čula za malo divlje ostrvo usred

Pacifika na koje se povlače geniji i multimilijarderi kada im je

dosta civilizacije... U toj smaragdnoj vodi nalaze sreću svi oni

koji su imali sve a onda shvatili da im je ova voda i pogled na

nju dovoljan. I vi, dok letite zaronjeni u nebo, setite se da će ti

prelepi, paperjasti oblaci u koje ste sada ušuškani postati deo

vode ka kojoj hrlite...

Just when we’d been left

without baths and introduced showers

– the spa became fashionable and an

issue of prestige. There is no public

figure who hasn’t shown how happy

they are with a selfie in a “hot tub”.

The journey is long from a hydro-mas-

sage tub to a yacht. But the million-

dollar yachts that carry their owners

around the seas are an indication

of the achieving of global success...

Juxtaposed to this, the most elite eco

warrior could seek happiness in some

wild secluded beach or river.

When, after a seven-day voyage

from Sydney to Tahiti, I set off with

my daughter eager to realise my own

dream of bathing on the island of

Gauguin, the locals said to me: “how

uninformed, who bathes in Tahiti

today? It’s dirty... You need to go to

Mo’orea!” That’s how I heard about the

little wild island in the middle of the

Pacific where geniuses and billion-

aires withdraw when they have had

enough of civilisation... These emerald

waters contain the happiness of all

those who had everything and then

realised that this water and the view

of it is enough for them. And you, as

you fly in a deep dive through the sky,

remember that those beautiful, fluffy

clouds you are now nestled between

will become part of the water towards

which you are rushing...

Za sreću je potrebno

malo: podvodna

nirvana

Happiness

requires a little:

underwater nirvana

Sreća koju stvara

dinamika podjednako

je snažna

The

happiness created by

dynamic is equally

strong
