Methodically, starting from scratch. Something 'else' but all is connected.
Momentum, is the right word, but a rather dull one.
An afternoon, or at least a few hours (this place is no good) with the thesaurus, and oed - I only gave my OED login to one.... likely ignored.
But I understand that now - I can express what the 'London' energy-environment, here...is...and why and what it does.
But I cannot find a word more juicy and alive-sounding than momentum.
Which is absurd as it is what is the key to it all...
It is all very very simple: when in a need-to-walk mode, by dint of circumstances; a decent long enough walk so as to put some real pressure on the body, to get there.. regularly... then gradually on3e enters a different and best-ever mental mode. Way of body and mind being. Not state of grace, but ideal state of curiosity, and not taking anything to heart; rambling on. But rambling on into what next. Actually living that there is a next. Body and mind indivisible.
So for years the silly sportifs speak of 'endorphin' rush. Or similar. Categorically not that. Categorically - of a category of being that is different. And even more 'ideal' than a mode i found 8 or 9 years ago. One thing Missing.
One could say the antonym of the best of all kind of 'momentum' is the bleedin' motor vehicle.
Not only it denying us this fabulous mental mode by dint of needing to walk for our basic needs, a fair way, but the noise...and also the culture of the motor. All kinds, but especially the shiny new ugly varieties, and especially the shiny new expensive ugly varieties displayed as of superior 'aesthetics' ( maybe 1 in 10 last region, here a frankly dystopian one in 5..... ditto special number plates that cost the price of feeding a bottom-third malnourished child for a year or two......infact here 5x more of them - and you have to be pretty mentally malnourished to need a few show off letters a foot above the road......ergo ) . But i have no interest in 'here'.
If my Saint-Exupéry style audio riffing on no home, meandering nomadic just being wherever your woolly hat is.. and .. splendidly meandering with best purpose, which is when the good thinking happens.... stuff like what is 'morality' for... searching for better words... waffling the last few months in my great gently forward momentum state, they can be heard as not of here in any way. Never mind, how wonderful to have had more i
on-path longish chats with Europeans than other 'nations'... I hadn't for a moment thought that ever again really possible. And has proved almost everything...
IN fact while i remember
