Come on a hot air balloon. A minute can change your perspective forever. Become an ego whisperer.
Drift into the glossary to define carnival, carnival master, thing, & funhouse.
For a few seconds of your time, you can change your perspective forever.
Come with me friend for a trip on the tethered hot air balloon. Here in the carnival, some vantage points are better than others. The balloon ride, as you’ll soon see, is one of the best.
Are your feet in?
As we rise above the fairgrounds, we start to see all the large objects get smaller. In fact, about now, we’re seeing things anew, related and connected.
Yet, if you squint your eyes, you’ll notice that nothing really radiates from a single point, although it may seem that way, for every-thing within the carnival is connected, and holds the entire carnival within it. Like that old carnie, Frank Fibonacci (who incidentally spent quite a bit of time on the ride we’re on), it appears to us that carnival is radiating out, from a golden mean, and growing until it spreads across the whole land. But it only does so for as long as the tether to our hot air balloon is firmly connected.
Now, we drift back and forth above the carnival as we gaze downward.
Sometimes the balloon seems to be directly over the concession stand, and other times, it seems over the funhouse (if I remember, they were ‘round 300 feet away from each other).
From our wind blown perspective, it’s tempting to think that the time its takes a patron to walk out of the funhouse, and roll up on the corndog eatery is but a few minutes walk.
