One time, several years ago, I was walking on the
beach when there was a strong wind and loud crashing waves. The sound
washed away all awareness of other things and created a loneness and
internal quiet that were almost unparalelled. Spain can be a lot like
that.
Right now I am sitting in my hotel room Friday night with the window
open, sounds of voices from the restaurants and tabernas below enjoying
their dinners, their friends, their wines are creating currents which
blend together into an upbeat sea of sound that can create that same
feeling of solitude, yet at the same time invite one to join in the
waves of liveliness.
