Off into silence retreat for 10 days

I have been silent for many days now but I am alive and kicking. It was first the exams then move to Holland, Catching up with friends in Amsterdam completely disrupted by the snow, a couple of bad falls on the slow, it was all my mistake, over excitement of the white snow covered land and not wearing proper shoes/boots.. but now I feel much better and in fact I am embarking on yet another adventure.. something that I have never done before and I feel this is the best way to say goodbye to 2010 and welcome the year ahead with new found self..

I leave in 30 minutes for a small place in the woods near Armersfort for 10 days meditation. No cel phones, no internet, disciplined life that starts from 4am and ends at 9.30. Turning the mind inwards and resolving all the conflicts. I do not know how I will be in this program but I am really inspired and curious to be part of this. This is going to be an experience of life time but I am not even allowed to have a pen and paper to make notes about the days. I have to fully experience this state of being and i may write about it later..

so to all my readers warm holiday greetings from the snow covered amsterdam.. see you all in the new year..
